“Surrounded?”
Damour was confused, “What do you mean by that.”
Civilian and military officials were also confused.
The guards gulped, “Your Majesty better go and see for yourself.”
Damour stood up and walked quickly out of the main hall, with the ministers following behind.
Arriving at the city walls, everyone fell silent at the sight before them.
They saw that tens of thousands of troops had come to the city!
They wore black armor and their faces were covered with fine iron masks, revealing only a pair of emotionless eyes.
They all breathed in unison, and the aura of bloodshed and killing rose into the sky!
The officers and soldiers guarding the city were weak at the knees.
These black-armored soldiers looked like ancient beasts, and the feeling of distress was so strong that it gave goosebumps!
“What, what is this?”
Damour regained his senses, “Could it be that other neighboring countries want to go to war with my Mochen Kingdom?”
But what other country in Oasis had ever had such a terrifying army?
Not to mention the cultivation realm, just looking at the killing aura, these people seem to have crawled out of the mountain of corpses and blood!
“I’m afraid it’s not a neighboring country.”
Guo Shi gulped and said with difficulty, “Yout Majesty, look carefully at the emblem on the armor….”
Damour cast his gaze there.
Only to see blazing golden feathers engraved all over the left breast of the black armor!
“Flying Phoenix Feather!”
“Linlang, it’s the army of the Linlang Empire!”
Damour’s face turned pale and his sweat stood up.
The Empress of Linlang was actually about to attack Mochen?!
At that moment, the black-armored soldiers surged up and made way for the path.
A general riding a one-horned ferocious demon beast slowly emerged into the forefront.
His silver armor was dazzling, his figure was solid, and his powerful pressure was like an abyss!
“Tribulation Realm?!”
Guo Shi’s scalp itched.
These tens of thousands of black-armored troops, coupled with Tribulation Realm’s great power, would be able to annihilate the Mochen Kingdom in an instant!
He shifted his feet and stood at Damour’s side, ready to lead the king to escape!
The silver-armored general looked towards the city wall, his indifferent voice echoing in the air.
“I am General Wei Su, the Major General ofLinlang.”
“The Mochen Kingdom’s unauthorized detention of the Duke is a provocation and a declaration of war against the Linlang Empire!”
“You have been given one incense to deliver the Duke in one piece, or the Huben Army will trample the Mochen Royal Palace.”
“There will be no truce until blood is shed!”
30,000 black-armored Huben troops took a step in unison.
Boom!
The sand rolled and the ground trembled!
The two courtiers following him immediately fell to the ground helplessly.
Damour, too, was a little weak in the legs and braced himself to say, “Wei, General Wei, this is a misunderstanding, Sir Duke is safe and sound and has long since left Mochen.”
“Left?
Wei Su frowned.
His divine sense encompassed the entire Mochen, not leaving a single corner.
There was indeed no trace of Su Shi.
Wei Su asked, “Where did Sir Duke go?”
Damour gulped and said, “After Sir Duke left, he went in the direction of the oasis center …… By the way, the princess of Saxin Kingdom seems to be very interested in him.”
“Saxin Kingdom?”
Wei Su’s eyes flickered slightly.
To confirm his claim, Guo Shi even replayed the footage of that time.
Damour smiled sarcastically, “General Kulbanhan was at fault for misrecognizing person, I’ve already explained it to Duke Su.”
Looking at the memory screen, Wei Mu’s eyes are slightly widened.
Then, several figures flew over the city, as if they were picked up by a large invisible hand.
It was Kulbanhan and the soldiers who were holding Su Shi back then.
Kulbanhan’s arm had just been fitted and was still recovering from his injuries in the hospital, when he was inexplicably brought to the top of the city wall seeing the black troops below him, his expression was still somewhat confused.
“What’s going on–”
Boom!
Those people were instantly blown to pieces!
Blood and flesh flew everywhere, blood fell like rain and soaked the crowd on the city wall!
The crowd of courtiers was in incomparable chaos, but not a single one of them dared to make a sound!
Wei Su said indifferently, “If anything, no matter how small, happens to Sir Duke, this general will return.”
The army of black-armored Huben soldiers left silently, receding like a tidal wave, disappearing without a trace in a matter of breath!
It was as if nothing had happened. There was a dead silence on the city walls.
Damour was covered in blood, his eyes dull and dazed.
He had underestimated Empress Linlang’s cruelty and Su Shi’s position in the Empress’ heart.
The other party would actually attack to destroy the country!
Guo Shi whispered, “Your Majesty, what do you think we should do now?”
“What to do ……”
Damour’s voice sounded hoarse, “Now we can only pray that nothing happens to Su Shi.”
The people’s faces were pale.
Why had things come to this point?
####
Saxin Kingdom, Royal Palace.
Early in the morning, the entire courtroom was in an uproar.
“Have you heard the news from yesterday?”
“Of course, the Royal Hospital has even released news that His Majesty’s condition has deteriorated sharply.”
“It is estimated that he will not survive a day.”
“And I wonder if His Majesty has made a decision?”
There was much chatter among the courtiers.
Only a few had expressionless faces and did not say a word.
The center of the courtroom.
The three princes, dressed in Naga yellow robes, stood with their arms folded.
The ministers stood behind them, clearly separated from each other.
The eldest prince frowned, “Why didn’t the chancellor come?”
Since the king was bedridden, the chancellor was in charge of state affairs.
But it had been half an hour since the court began, and there was still no sign of the chancellor
The second prince sneered, “What, brother can’t wait?”
The Third Prince crossed his arms, “The Chancellor is probably at Father’s side.”
Several people’s eyes flickered and their expressions changed.
At the end of mortal life, His Majesty would definitely choose the person who would succeed the throne.
The designation of the first person will be based on the eldest, not the virtuous.
In theory, this throne should be inherited by the eldest prince, but it is unlikely that the others will give up in good faith.
They have long been tearing each other apart.
Regardless of the contents of this edict, only the person who ascended the throne was qualified to live!
“The chancellor is here!”
The courtiers turned to look.
They only saw the white-haired old man walking in.
The eldest Prince spoke and asked, “Chancellor Chamuha, why are you delayed for so long? Could it be that there is news to be announced?”
All eyes were focused on Chamuha.
Chamuha nodded and said, “There is indeed some great news, but it is better to let His Majesty announce it personally.”
“Father is announcing it?”
“What do you mean by that?”
Everyone looked confused.
At that moment, the imperial eunuch entered, stood at the door and said in a loud voice, “His Majesty has arrived!”
The next moment, a tall figure came into view.
Everyone’s breathing stopped at this moment.
Only to see King Babuh, who had originally turned into sand, appear in front of the crowd in one piece at this moment!
Dressed in a golden robe of nine dragons and wearing a beaded crown, Babuh walked into the courtroom with tiger steps.
Alia followed silently behind him.
Babuh walked to the royal throne and sat down, looking around at the ministers with tiger eyes, “What, I’ve only been absent from the court for three months and you’ve forgotten to salute me when you see me?”
The hall was silent.
Only after a long time did the crowd react and kneel down loudly.
“Long live the King!”
