Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 1239 - 1236: The Crisis of National Annihilation!
Seeing Li Chen flick his finger to penetrate Tongshan, using Great Divine Power to annihilate Little True Monarch Jii Changqing.
The only survivor, Hei Hu Guard Commander Heluo, was infinitely shocked.
After being stunned for a moment, he desperately fled the scene.
Li Chen, however, did not pursue, but instead watched him leave.
Regarding this, Heluo was greatly surprised.
However, he didn’t think much about it.
After all, as long as he could save his life, nothing else mattered.
"That wretched Li Chen is simply too monstrous; it seems it will take Great General Pei Xiong personally to strike him down!"
Considering this, Heluo hesitated no longer, swiftly heading towards the Jian Dynasty army.
Muu Xian’er saw Li Chen standing with his hands behind his back; gazing ahead, she could not contain her curiosity and stepped forward to ask.
"Why did you let him escape? I heard that this time Jian Dynasty’s Great General Pei Xiong and Heavenly Thunder Sect’s Chief Heavenly Pride Chuu Ying are all here, they are truly Divinity Transformation True Monarchs. If they find out you’re here, I’m afraid..."
She didn’t finish her sentence, sensibly stopping halfway.
However, the implicit meaning in her words was already clear.
Li Chen turned his head slightly and asked Muu Xian’er, "What? Are you worried about me?"
Upon hearing Li Chen’s sudden question, Muu Xian’er was initially stunned, then she rolled her eyes at him.
"Tsk, don’t flatter yourself; nobody is worried about you!"
Li Chen responded with a light smile, saying nonchalantly, "Since you aren’t worried about me, why did you ask?"
"I..."
Muu Xian’er was instantly choked by Li Chen’s words, her pretty face turning crimson.
Seeing her expression amused Li Chen greatly, he chuckled and shook his head, waving to Ji Lingling and the others, saying, "Alright, let’s go!"
"Mr. Li, Little Shitou is already without kin and so young, shall we take him along?"
Ji Lingling looked at Little Shitou, pitifully alone, overflowing with maternal love, she pleaded with Li Chen.
Li Chen waved his hand and said, do as you please.
"Thank you, Mr. Li!"
Receiving Li Chen’s approval, Ji Lingling was overjoyed, thanking him repeatedly.
Xia Ning’er noticed the direction Li Chen chose was the Royal City of the Flame Dragon Dynasty, her clear eyes immediately rippled with a touch of confusion.
"Mr. Li, where are we going?"
"To the Royal City!"
Li Chen’s reply was succinct, yet it shocked everyone.
It should be noted, now the Jian Dynasty’s millions of troops are besieging the Royal City.
Going there now is akin to walking into a trap!
But none of them dared to voice these concerns.
Ji Lingling is now completely a fanatical follower of Li Chen, obeying his words unquestioningly. No matter how absurd it may be, she never raises doubts.
Not to mention Li Chen proposing to go to the Royal City, even if it’s a dragon pond or a tiger’s den, she would follow without hesitation.
With Li Chen there, she fears nothing!
Muu Xian’er, on the other hand, felt her pride was hurt by Li Chen’s sharp remark earlier and was sulking, so naturally, she wouldn’t seek further embarrassment.
As for Xia Ning’er, her emotions at that moment were more complicated. Saying her thoughts were in turmoil would not be an exaggeration.
The Royal City, to her, is a place both familiar and unfamiliar.
It is her birthplace, carrying memories of carefree childhood, how could she not be familiar?
But since the Guu Family allied with the Zhou Family, Nanyan Family, and Beihan Family to revolt, her mother hung herself, and her father set the Qiong Tower ablaze in self-immolation, she had never returned there.
Years have passed, what she thought were deeply engraved memories have long faded.
She can’t even recall the faces of her father and mother.
She only remembers there was a large weeping willow in front of her mother’s bedchamber, where she often played.
Could it be that the weeping willow in front of the palace doors is still there?
Flame Dragon Dynasty, Royal City:
King Guu Tianchun is gathering civil and military officials, along with clan leaders and elders from various families for an emergency meeting.
Now the Jian Dynasty’s million troops are unstoppable, capturing over a hundred cities in just half a month, pressing directly towards the Royal City.
The worst part is, the Jian Dynasty doesn’t even accept surrender.
Every city they capture, they massacre directly, slaughtering every man, woman, and child in the city indiscriminately. Their brutal actions are appalling!
And it’s not just the Jian Dynasty, but also the Heavenly Thunder Sect.
Former allies of the Flame Dragon Dynasty have now all become deaf and blind.
More infuriatingly, some so-called allies are now opportunists, all distancing themselves and even adding insult to injury.
Soon, the Flame Dragon Dynasty is teetering on the brink, appearing ready to collapse.
The usually bustling council hall is now deathly silent.
Everyone wore somber expressions, faces filled with dejection.
After a long silence, Commander of the Forbidden Army Guu Tong was the first to break it.
"King, while the Jian Dynasty’s troops haven’t invaded the Royal City yet, let me escort you to escape from here!"
By usual protocol, Guu Tong would not have the right to speak in such a high-level meeting.
But now no one considered his action as breaking the protocol.
In fact, Guu Tong’s opinion represented the thoughts of most present.
If the Jian Dynasty is a fierce tiger, then their Flame Dragon Dynasty is a lamb.
Now this fierce tiger has opened its bloody maw, if they don’t flee now, when will they?
Moreover, behind this fierce tiger stands the behemoth called the Heavenly Thunder Sect.
The real question is, where to flee?
Who dares risk offending Jian Dynasty and Heavenly Thunder Sect by sheltering these pitiful lambs?
If they don’t add insult to injury, it’s already considered benevolence.
Fight, powerless to resist!
Flee, nowhere to run!
The Flame Dragon Dynasty is trapped in a dilemma, their fate sealed.
Guu Tianchun, at this moment, couldn’t maintain his regal composure and sighed heavily.
"Alas, is my Flame Dragon to be exterminated, wiped out?" 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
"It’s all because of that damned Li Chen, provoking who he shouldn’t, he had to provoke the Third Prince of the Jian Dynasty. Now, seeing the situation turn dire, he fled, leaving my Flame Dragon Dynasty’s millions of citizens to be buried as collateral!"
Someone started cursing first, and then everyone joined in, venting their anger.
At this moment, cursing Li Chen seemed to be the only thing they could do.
While they were cursing vehemently, the Seventh Princess Guu Qingcheng suddenly arrived.
"Father, someone wants to see you!"
Guu Tianchun, full of sorrow and deep despair, had no mood for visitors and immediately glared angrily, reprimanding Guu Qingcheng.
"I won’t see them, tell them to get back to wherever they came from!"
Guu Qingcheng hesitated for a moment before lightly speaking, "Father, it’s Li Chen!"
Upon hearing the name "Li Chen," everyone present felt as if they were struck by lightning.
Before they could regain their senses, a lone figure in a blue robe gracefully approached.
Who else could it be but Li Chen, the root of their malevolence?
