I Don’t Want To Defy The Heavens

Chapter 368: Imperial Dynasty Destroyed

“Zhang Tianshan, I think that you are not suitable to continue fighting with the Alliance. You should go fake your identity as a shaman, and maybe if you are lucky, people might treat you as a master.” Lin Fan said. He was quite impressed with Zhang Tianshan as a person.

Moreover, this person was cunning enough.

When they were in You City, he directly called him ‘kid’ as he felt like he had someone backing him, so he didn’t need to worry about Lin Fan.

After You City was wiped out and they returned to Martial Path Mountain, he changed the way he called him.

Zhang Tianshan asked, “Sect Leader, do I even need to fake it? Actually, I am really a master. It’s just that I am not interested in it and not many people know about it. Just looking at the place, I know that it is not simple. It is a really good place and as long as we place Martial Path Mountain here, we will definitely prosper.”

Lin Fan couldn’t be bothered bickering with Zhang Tianshan as this person was just so cunning.

Half a month ago, he had already found this place. This place was also really far away from You City.

What he was most worried about now wasn’t his father but the whereabouts of his cousin.

With his cousin’s cultivation, although it was not bad, if he faced the Alliance, it was not enough.

“Nothing should happen.”

Cousin wasn’t someone with a short life and he definitely had his own lucky encounters. Once the time was right, they would definitely meet one another.

Lin Fan took out Martial Path Mountain and placed it on empty land. He connected it with the surrounding mountains and it didn’t seem out of place at all.

Although this mountain belonged to Huang Family, with their ability, they definitely wouldn’t be able to protect it. So, in this way, he wasn’t stealing the mountain, but he was helping to preserve it.

As long as they would be able to meet each other in the future, he would definitely return it to them.

“We shall stay here for the time being. Zhu Shen, look around in case we have entered someone else’s territory.” Lin Fan said.

Zhu Shen had a small body but he wasn’t weak at all. As a Dao Realm expert, he had the ability to investigate the surrounding situation.

“Eh, don’t worry. I will pay attention.”

Since they had come to a foreign place, naturally they had to learn more and study the surrounding situation. Especially such a place where they didn’t know what was hidden in the mountain ranges around.

When they landed back on Martial Path Mountain, everything was the same as before and there wasn’t much difference.

Yuan Tianchu kept silent for a long while and wasn’t as energetic as before.

He felt like he could see through schemes and plots and he loved to overthink, to perfect incidents with missing clues and results. But now, he realized that he was unable to perfect the plan in his head at all.

He seemed much more dispirited.

Feng Poliu said, “Are we going to hide here and wait for the Alliance matter to end?”

Lin Fan shook his head, “No, this is our new camp. The Alliance is such a bully, so I can’t let them have a simple time. I will definitely find them to have a good chat.”

Even Father was planning something, so how could he fall behind?

Outside of You City.

“So, it is all true.” Liang Yongqi didn’t enter the city but he heard loud noises from afar. Looking closely, there was a large machine that was working in You City. Although he didn’t know what it was, he could tell that You City was really lost.

“Father, big brother, and third sister have all died?”

He really wanted to take a look, but for some reason, he was afraid.

Liang Yongqi grasped the ground and was really reluctant. He wanted to charge in to look at his family members, but his body was trembling involuntarily.

When he heard the sounds of movement, he hid behind the hill and didn’t dare to move at all. Beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.

He had overestimated himself.

He thought that he wouldn’t be afraid, but when he returned to You City, he understood that he really felt afraid.

In the distance, a bunch of Alliance members lined up and walked over. It looked like they were patrolling, but it also looked like they were doing something else.

But to Liang Yongqi, it wasn’t important anymore.

A long while later, Liang Yongqi realized that there was a deep hole. He didn’t know what it was but when he saw the thing inside, he was stunned.

He fell right through the ground.

The hole was filled with corpses, so many that they couldn’t even be counted. There were some that he was familiar with which made him certain that they were all corpses of people who had once lived in You City.

The first thing that the Alliance Headquarters did was find the corpses of the Alliance experts.

These people were heroes of the Alliance.

The people were all waiting for the corpses to return, so they definitely couldn’t bury them here.

As for the corpses of the natives, naturally, they wouldn’t receive such good treatment. The Alliance members just piled them up in the hole and were prepared to either bury or burn them.

Liang Yongqi was totally stunned and didn’t come back to his senses.

He didn’t know whether his family members were inside. He wanted to search, but he didn’t know how.

“I am afraid.”

Liang Yongqi’s tears flowed down. He believed what Lin Fan said, that father hoped that he would live and didn’t send him away because he hated him.

Imperial Dynasty.

The commoners in the inner and outer areas had been evacuated. This was the capital and all the news caused a huge storm here.

Many sect disciples were living here and they had spread the news.

The Alliance and the top sects all wanted to topple the Imperial Dynasty. All the people couldn’t stay here, otherwise, they would definitely die. They had to pack their stuff and run.

This was why the commoners all ran.

Some stronger families didn’t dare to stay in the capital anymore. To protect their family members, they sent all of their items away overnight and left the capital.

After all, to the strong families, they obviously had secret areas that belonged to them.

Outside the capital, King Wutong’s army was already standing in front of the city walls. He wanted to slow down but he couldn’t. The Alliance envoy had arrived long ago along with a few mysterious experts.

Old Wei, who was beside King Wutong, loved to brag, but when he saw the five mysterious people, he felt so small and weak. He shuddered and didn’t dare to say a single word.

“Your Majesty, the capital is right ahead.” Liu Xuan was really excited. He had finally waited for this day and victory was right in front of his eyes.

Leading the army, Liu Xiang raised his head and looked at the capital. His expression changed. He was finally back. He had said that he would definitely come back and take back all that he had lost.

Now, everything was right in front of him.

As long as King Wutong gave the order, he would charge in and lead the army to break into the capital.

“We surrender.”

“King Wutong, it is me. We surrender.”

The general guarding the gate shouted. He ordered the soldiers to open the city gates to welcome King Wutong.

King Wutong’s face was expressionless. The moment the city gate opened, he waved his hand, “Kill everyone. Leave no one alive.”

The sound of his voice was like the arrival of the god of death.

These people who betrayed the Imperial Dynasty didn’t deserve to live. Only by killing them could he lessen the rage in his heart.

The general guarding the city gate didn’t expect that that would happen. Why did King Wutong want to kill him? He begged for mercy and welcomed him.

How could this happen?

Not long later, cries spread out.

“Your Majesty, these people want to join your side and actually you don’t have to kill them. Taking them in will help to strengthen your side.” Liu Xuan said.

The moment he said these words, his body shook.

King Wutong’s gaze was really terrifying.

Liu Xuan knelt on the ground, kowtowing and begging for forgiveness.

Inside the capital.

“Teacher Zhao, why aren’t you leaving?” The Emperor sat on the throne. When the army surrounded the capital, the Emperor had washed up and changed. He worshipped his ancestors and then came to the main hall to wait.

Zhao Family Ancestor was dressed in rough cloth and his head was covered in white hair. “Emperor, I have followed you to conquer the south and I’m loyal to you. Everything the Zhao Family has is because of you. Even if those from Zhao Family have changed, my position toward the Imperial Court will never change.”

“There is actually no need. Teacher Zhao can leave this place. I am the Emperor and now that the Imperial Court is being destroyed, everyone can leave except for me.” The Emperor said. His expression was one of loss and dejection. The hall was huge and all the ministers who once filled it were all gone.

“Don’t worry Emperor, the Imperial Court will not be wiped out. The Crown Prince and princess will make it rise once more.” Zhao Family Ancestor said.

Very quickly, the noise from outside spread in.

Although it was a little far, one could hear it from the hall.

At that moment, an old eunuch beside the Emperor had a sword hanging by his waist. He walked slowly and knelt down. “Your Majesty, I will clear the way for you and won’t let those little people dirty your field of sight.”

“Chao En.” Emperor spoke and looked at Chao En, who had served him for his whole life. He nodded. “Go, I will arrive right after.”

With a clang, Chao En pulled out his sword. Chao En, who seemed really tranquil and merciful, was now more pumped up and filled with killing intent than anyone else. He shouted, “You kids, let’s go all out against them.”

Very quickly, a bunch of small eunuchs followed behind Chao En. They stepped out of the hall and charged outside.

Zhao Family Ancestor looked at the Emperor. With their foundations, maybe they were unable to clash against the army outside, but they would definitely be able to cause a great deal of problems for them.

But the Emperor scattered all the powers he had under him.

No one knew where they went.

No one knew where the Emperor sent the Crown Prince and princess.

Outside, Chao En hollered in rage and slashed forwards. Sword energy surged forwards and sliced those in front of him into two.

“Chao En, surrender to me and I will let you live.” King Wutong said.

The five mysterious men frowned.

Chao En hollered, “You dog traitor. You deserve to die!”

King Wutong was expressionless but he couldn’t take it in his heart. He knew that apart from his brother, Chao En was the only person that could understand him. He was the small eunuch that served his brother since young.

Now, what are you even saying?

Brother, what do you want to do?

He hadn’t contacted him at all and all connection had been severed. Even after the army arrived outside the capital he didn’t try to reach him or plan how to con all these people to death.

Instead, he sent the Imperial Dynasty experts away and allowed them to get here unobstructed.

Is there a secret that you’re not telling me?
