Chapter 639: The Day of the Decisive Battle
"Well, after doing business for a long time, you can hear about all sorts of things."
Jin Qian simply laughed it off without offering any further explanation.
Anyway, they're all just trivial matters. This desolate city is hidden in the world. Unless it encounters a major disaster like a demon invasion or a war between the five realms that no one can escape, even if people outside fight each other to the death, it has nothing to do with the desolate city.
"Ha, I actually believed your nonsense."
Gu Heng lazily picked up his wine glass and took a sip.
"Hehe, I'm used to being carefree. I can just listen to what's going on outside; I have no interest in getting involved anyway."
"That's true." Gu Heng casually changed the subject with that one sentence.
However, this did awaken him. After all, he had been a cultivator for quite some time now, and his strength seemed to be improving every day. But no matter how much he improved, it seemed that he was falling behind the times...
Looking outside, those experts at the Saintly Realm all have a chance to ascend to immortality!
Becoming an immortal is a completely different story.
It is said that after embarking on the path to immortality, although one is still human, one is no longer an ordinary person. One has undergone a transformation from the physical body to the soul, and even to abstract things like "destiny"!
In other words.
The gap between immortals and mortals is actually enormous.
Even for a mortal saint, the difference between them and an immortal ascension is vastly different...
It wasn't that Gu Heng knew anything; it was just that the book actually said it. "Whether you're a celestial being or not, you should focus on living your own life first."
Gu Heng pondered for a long time before drinking the rest of the wine in his cup in one gulp.
Since he has already left the Forbidden Zone of Dead Souls and the landing point of his teleportation skill has changed, he can wander around the Lesser Mystic Heaven Realm more, observe the local customs and traditions, and perhaps even look forward to finding his own "opportunity"?
In this world, many things depend on "fate".
Although it's hard to understand, there's no need to understand it. Just wait and see. When the time is right, good or bad things will come knocking.
There's no need to actively seek it out.
Although he is not in a hurry to cultivate, he has no reason not to refuse if the opportunity comes his way.
……
Central Plains. The heartland of the imperial dynasty, Mount Wentian, the Terrace of Wentian.
Today is the day that will determine who will rule the Central Plains. Right here in this sacred land of the Heavenly Palace, the Central Plains Emperor Xuanyuan Wuji stands with his hands behind his back.
He was dressed in the most magnificent and imposing purple-gold dragon robe, wearing an imperial crown. Standing there, he was like a pillar supporting the sky, majestic and unparalleled!
Three miles behind him was the Black Dragon Army, the most elite guard of the Central Plains royal family!
And now, all the civil and military officials, empresses, concubines, princes and princesses of the Central Plains Dynasty have come here, hoping to see their emperor, their father, cut down that ungrateful tyrant and restore the prestige of the Central Plains Dynasty!
Although those who know the inside story mostly understand...
What a load of bull! The Central Plains Emperor is nothing but a lapdog under a celestial being from outer space.
After the Grand Protector of Zhongzhou descended upon the Zhongzhou Dynasty, the speed at which the Human Emperor slid to his knees was astonishing. Whatever that immortal wanted, he gave him; truly, he gave him everything!
Concubines, princesses, and imperial concubines—Canglan Xuanxian found ways to delight them every night, each with a different pleasure. If one day Canglan Xuanxian suddenly wanted to try something new, he might even offer up his private parts.
but.
Although secretly they despised him to the extreme.
But no one said that Xuanyuan Wuji was unreasonable. After all, although Xuanyuan Wuji lost his dignity, he didn't lose his life, did he?
The two powerful governors of the Western and Southern Regions wantonly slaughtered sects and families without giving any reason.
At least, the Central Plains Dynasty was at peace with Canglan Xuanxian. Besides, wouldn't it be an incredible opportunity to have such a powerful immortal serve you in bed?
Just in case.
Which of the concubines or princesses of the Central Plains royal family is carrying that immortal child? Wouldn't they rise to prominence and wealth simply by having a child?!
and so.
Behind everyone's backs, people would secretly point fingers at Xuan Yuan Wuji, saying he was utterly shameful. But who knows if it was anger at the Emperor's weakness and incompetence, or simply jealousy and envy because his own wives, concubines, and daughters hadn't been chosen by Cang Lan Xuan Xian?
Intriguing...
"...thump thump thump..."
Xuanyuan Wuji silently gazed into the distance.
coming!
The sound of war drums grew louder as it approached, shaking the heavens!
No one doubted that those were the war drums of the Yanluo Kingdom's army, booming loudly!
Soon, the army of Yanluo Kingdom was already close by.
Countless soldiers, with a muffled roar and riding the towering blood-red smoke, surged forward. The moment they appeared, their power stirred up the floating clouds in the sky, turning everything crimson!
What a magnificent scene that was!
Even from a great distance, the Central Plains Dynasty still felt the terrifying aura rushing towards them, making their hearts tremble!
Upon seeing the Yanluo Kingdom's army, the Central Plains Dynasty was immediately abuzz with excitement and unrest.
"The rumors are true! If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have thought it was an exaggeration..."
"Even the lowest-ranking soldiers have a full set of Earth-grade equipment!"
"Those four fierce generals ahead are all equipped with Saint-grade armor and magical treasures, and even Emperor-grade divine weapons! Wow!"
"This is just too rich..."
Behind them, the Black Dragon Army, civil and military officials, and even Xuanyuan Wuji's concubines and children were completely stunned by this scene. The overwhelming wealth and grandeur left them speechless.
It surprised me that.
Even with the foundation and resources of the Central Plains Dynasty, it could only provide each of the 70,000 Black Dragon Army soldiers with a piece of yellow-grade armor. Only a handful of guards in the Black Dragon Army were qualified to possess a piece of earth-grade magic weapon.
As for the sacred items...
Hehe, only the Black Dragon Army Commander has this thing.
The higher the grade of the treasure, the more it should be assigned to the best and most elite troops.
But where did the Yanluo Kingdom on the other side get so many treasures that they could distribute them to every member of such a large army?
compare to.
The Central Plains Dynasty looks like those worthless dynasties from the remote and impoverished areas of the Eastern Regions, such as the Sunfire Dynasty or other worthless scoundrels...
"quiet!"
Xuanyuan Wuji let out a low shout, instantly suppressing the boiling and noisy sounds from the Central Plains.
He can't stay silent.
The King of Yanluo Kingdom hasn't even shown up yet, and people on our side are already restless. This is outrageous!
"My lords, you are all my trusted advisors. I do not wish for any of you to be restless and disturb my peace of mind!"
As he spoke, Xuan Yuan Wuji's gaze suddenly turned cold. After scanning the area, he withdrew his gaze.
"Furthermore, I will surely win today's battle!"
"At that time, you may all return to the capital with me in triumph!"
"...Victory is certain!"
Upon hearing this, everyone hesitated for a moment before shouting loudly, "The Emperor is mighty!"
As for whether victory is truly assured, it's hard to say.
Because Canglan Xuanxian didn't seem to care much about who controlled Zhongzhou. He was the Great Guardian and the strongest person in Zhongzhou.
The shouts of violence from his men didn't affect him.
"Immortals" don't need to care about "mortals," it's that simple.
