Chapter 1304: Rebellion in the South, the Imperial Family Moves the Capital
Chapter 1304: Rebellion in the South, the Imperial Family Moves the Capital
In the second war in the southern seas, the human race was defeated. Fortunately, an internal conflict broke out among the demon race, which allowed a group of human warriors to return safely.
Afterwards, the demon tribe was unstoppable and easily reached Nanyang Island. In just half a day, they massacred the entire Nanyang Island, leaving no one alive!
During this period, the largest sect in the South, the Zhengyi Sect, used its treasure "Sky-peeping Mirror" to see the tragic situation on Nanyang Island. At the same time, they discovered that the demon clan had so cruelly gathered up most of the living people. Later, they were taken into a large cauldron by Emperor Shitian and finally refined into blood pills alive.
This move caused a huge shock in the human cultivation world. Many human cultivators reacted strongly and requested the Zhengyi Sect to gather strength again and prepare for the third attack on the demon clan.
As a result, before the human race could gather strength, the demon army completely landed on the land of the gods, and invaded all parts of the southern country at lightning speed. Wherever they went, blood flowed!
Just when the cultivators of the Southern Kingdom were in a panic, a blue-clothed swordsman suddenly appeared. With one man and one sword, he blocked most of the demon army and even cut off the heads of two demon ancestors. He became famous in the divine realm and became renowned.
When the Southern Kingdom's royal family learned about this, they were overjoyed and immediately sent envoys to try to appease the cultivator and confer him the title of "National Protector Immortal Lord". However, the cultivator did not appreciate it and directly detained the Southern Kingdom's envoys, demanding that the Southern Kingdom send troops to attack the demon clan, which made the Southern Kingdom's royal family very angry.
Qingqiu City was originally an ancient city in the southern part of the South Kingdom. It was also an important pass in the south and could be called the southern gateway of the South Kingdom.
Millions of human beings have lived in the city for generations, but now it has become the frontline city for the Southern Kingdom and the entire human race to resist the invasion of the demon race.
Just two days ago, a huge army of demons rushed over. Before they even entered the city, they frightened the lord of Qingqiu City so much that he fled in panic, without caring about the lives of the people in the city.
Just as the demon army was about to attack the city and massacre the human civilians, they were stopped by a blue-clothed swordsman, who defeated the entire demon army in one battle. Finally, Qingqiu City was saved and millions of people were able to survive.
In the next two days, the people in the city spontaneously smelted a lot of iron and forged one weapon after another.
At this moment, countless people climbed up the city walls with weapons made of fine iron, ready for battle.
Many monks heard the news and came to help.
For a moment, the sky above the entire Qingqiu City was filled with flying swords, and one cultivator after another flew here on his swords.
"Thank you all for coming to help. On behalf of the people of Qingqiu City, I would like to thank you all!!"
On the city wall, a handsome young man in a green shirt and carrying a long sword on his back rushed over to the monk who came to help and bowed solemnly!
“Senior, you are too polite. The demon tribe is coming with great force, the Southern Kingdom’s court is incompetent, and even the Demon Suppression Alliance has lost its spirit.
Now it is not only the southern land that is affected by the disaster, but the entire divine land!
The barbarians want to drive us out of the divine realm, and the demons want to slaughter us all. No matter whether we are cultivators or humans, we have no way to retreat but to fight!
So after we heard about our seniors’ demeanor, we couldn’t wait to come here! ”
"Yes, although our cultivation is far inferior to that of our predecessors, we are also part of the human race. It is our duty to protect the human race and the territory of the God Realm!"
"..."
The cultivators all spoke in deep voices. Many of them were young faces. Most of them were high-level cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage and Qi Refining Stage. There were only a handful of cultivators in the Core Formation Stage, and as for the Nascent Soul Stage, there was not a single one.
But despite this, they still looked serious.
"You are all good!"
"When it comes to protecting the human race, there is no distinction between high and low levels of cultivation. We are all fighting for the human race, and for the hundreds of millions of unarmed human beings behind us!"
"But you have to think carefully. Although the demon army has temporarily retreated, they may come back at any time. By then, this place will become a truly cruel battlefield, and people may die at any time!"
The green-robed swordsman looked at the monks with a serious expression; he did not want these people to die in vain.
However, he understood even more clearly that what the monks said was true. The human race has now reached its most critical moment. If it cannot unite and fight back, what awaits the human race will be true genocide.
So sometimes some sacrifices are necessary!
"Senior, since we are here, we have already thought about the consequences!"
"Yes, although we monks scheme against each other in the face of various opportunities, we can also unite as one in the face of major issues!"
"Decades ago, the gods descended to the mortal world, and the Nine Provinces were in imminent danger. So many of our human ancestors were able to not fear life and death, so why should we, the little cultivators, fear death?"
"For the sake of the human race, and for the millions of mortals behind us, we cultivators should not be afraid of dying, nor should we be afraid of fighting!!"
Hearing the indignant and passionate words of the monks, the young swordsman couldn't help but be moved, and immediately nodded and said, "Well said!"
"Don't worry, Yan will live and die with you!!"
With the joining of many monks, the people in Qingqiu City all breathed a sigh of relief. In their eyes, these monks who came to help in the battle were all immortal figures like the young swordsman.
With so many gods and immortals gathered here, how dare those monsters come again?
However, the young swordsman knew very well that if the demon army came again, the city would be difficult to defend.
This city is the southern gateway of the Southern Kingdom. Once it is destroyed, the demon army will march straight in and there will be no city gates to stop their invasion.
At that time, Yanjia Village and Tushan clan will also be massacred.
Although he could arrange for everyone to leave, there were always some people who were stubborn and believed that this was the ancestral land where their ancestors had lived for generations and that it could not be abandoned at will.
In desperation, he could only draw his sword and fight!
Due to the reputation he gained in the previous battle, the young swordsman was revered as a god in the hearts of the people and cultivators throughout Qingqiu City, so everyone regarded him as the commander-in-chief from then on.
The young swordsman did not hesitate and began to command everyone to garrison the city in an orderly manner. He also ordered the monks to start building city walls, rivers, traps, etc.
Not long after, a figure quietly appeared beside the young swordsman. It was a beautiful white-haired woman.
At this moment, the white-haired woman's face was extremely ugly, and she said to the young swordsman: "Brother Yanmo, the court just responded."
"Oh? How?" Yan Mo was immediately cheered up when he heard that.
Not long ago, he detained the envoy of the imperial court in order to force the royal family to send troops to help, and finally there was news.
"That dog emperor said that the demons are invading. It would be useless for mortal soldiers to participate. It would only cause more casualties. So I'll trouble the Protector of the Nation to guard this place!"
"The dog emperor obviously wants us to fight for him and save his kingdom, but he is unwilling to send even a single soldier. He deserves to die!"
"And I've received news that the dog emperor has ordered the capital to be moved northward, preparing to establish the capital in Sanxian City near the Qin border!"
The white-haired woman spoke in a deep voice.
