Chapter 169: Meng Yuan Empire’s Army Approaching!
Edited by: Mochiusagi
The Meng Yuan Empire’s Army was going to the South!
As soon as this news came out, the world fell into a state of extreme fear and panic.
As a huge country occupying the Endless Grasslands in the North, to the surrounding countries, the Meng Yuan Empire always felt like a tiger looming in the shadows. If it weren’t for the fear that the surrounding countries would join forces, the Meng Yuan Empire’s would have been constantly waging wars and conquering countries.
But now that the Meng Yuan Empire’s Imperial Teacher became a Legend, the Meng Yuan Empire no longer intended to endure this and mobilized their army.
In the Imperial Palace of the Northern Song Dynasty.
The Song Emperor and many of his Officials wore ugly expressions, but no one dared to speak.
“I really underestimated that Imperial Teacher.”
Yue Yi, who was silent for a long time, whispered.
As the Great Marshal of the Northern Song Dynasty, Yue Yi’s strength reached Peak Grade 1, and was the strongest in the Northern Song Dynasty.
30 years ago, Yue Yi fought against the Imperial Teacher. Although he was not the Imperial Teacher’s match at the time, Yue Yi knew the level of his opponent.
Originally, in Yue Yi’s opinion, the Imperial Teacher was still some distance away from the Legend Realm. It was also uncertain at that time, if he would be able to complete his Third Transformation and reach Grade 1 Great Perfection, let alone the Legend Realm.
But now, in just 30 years, he has made a great leap in strength, breaking into the Legend Realm!
“General Yue.”
“I want to know, what are the odds of the Northern Song Dynasty winning?”
The Song Emperor’s eyes were red as he stared at Yue Yi closely. He asked with a trembling voice.
“The odds?”
Yue Yi thought about it for a while, then said: “If there is no Meng Yuan’s Imperial Teacher, even if the Meng Yuan Empire mobilized 5 million troops, we would still have an 80% chance.”
“80%?”
The Song Emperor’s eyes shined.
He was very clear about Yue Yi’s character. Since he said it was 80%, it meant that he was very confident. As long as there was no accident, blocking the Meng Yuan Empire was not a problem.
“Then, what about if the Imperial Teacher is present?”
The Song Emperor looked at Yue Yi with expectation.
“The Meng Yuan’s Imperial Teacher?” Yue Yi was silent again for a while, and finally said slowly: “We wouldn’t be able to stop them.”
The Song Emperor’s face suddenly turned pale as paper.
They wouldn’t be able to stop them?!
The Song Emperor sighed lightly, his face was ashen.
He has been diligent and conscientious as an Emperor. Even if he’s not excellent, he’s not bad either. To think that the fall of the Empire would happen during his time of ruling…
“Your Majesty.”
“Actually, you don’t need to worry.”
At this moment, an Official stood up and bowed slightly.
“Don’t worry?”
“The Empire is about to be doomed, and you want me to not worry?”
The Song Emperor didn’t even have the strength to get angry anymore and just sighed.
“Your Majesty.”
The Official paused for a while before continuing: “Since the Meng Yuan Empire is going to the South, their goal is definitely not us.”
“Oh?”
When the Song Emperor heard this, his spirits were suddenly lifted.
“The Tang Empire occupies the land of the Central Plains, and there is also a Legend in Chang’an City. If the Meng Yuan Empire wants to dominate the world, they will inevitably use most of their military power on the Tang Empire.”
“The Meng Yuan Empire and Tang Empire are like two tigers fighting. Even if one side wins, they will definitely be hit hard. At that time, we could unite with the rest of the countries, and maybe solve these two hidden dangers in one fell swoop.”
As the Song Emperor listened, his eyes got brighter and brighter.
“The Official is right.”
“I did not consider it properly.”
The Song Emperor finally showed a smile on his face.
…
The news of the Meng Yuan Empire going to the South continued to spread. Not only the Northern Song Empire, but the rest of the world also realized that instead of taking over their countries, the Meng Yuan Empire’s declaration of war was on the Tang Empire.
After all, throughout the world, besides the Tang Empire, which country can compete with the Meng Yuan Empire?
For a time, not only did the countries relax, they even started sitting atop a mountain to watch the tigers fight.
…
In the Primal Chaos Palace in the Tang Empire.
Emperor Li Sheng was currently sitting on the Dragon Throne, while wearing a grave expression on his face.
“Everyone, the Meng Yuan Empire is heading South, do you have things in mind?” Emperor Li Sheng glanced at the Civil and Military Officials.
“Your Majesty.”
“Since the Imperial Teacher has entered the Legend Realm, we can only invite the Legend in the Imperial Palace for help…”
Shangshu, from the Ministry of War, stood out and said.
“Invite the Legend for help?”
Emperor Li Sheng was silent, not knowing how to reply.
He wants to invite the Legend too, but he doesn’t even know who the other party was. So how would they invite him?
Moreover, there’s also a possibility that the Legend has already left the Imperial Palace.
“What else?”
Emperor Li Sheng settled down and asked again.
“Your Majesty, there is no other way.”
Shangshu couldn’t help but say: “If we don’t invite the Legend from the Imperial Palace, the Empire has no chance of winning…”
Shangshu was telling the truth.
The Meng Yuan Empire’s 5 million troops had already put a lot of pressure on the Empire, not to mention that there’s the Imperial Teacher, who was a Legend…
“I see.”
Emperor Li Sheng sighed slightly and continued: “Mobilize the army and gather them in Chang’an City. We will fight to the death with the Meng Yuan Empire in Chang’an City.”
As soon as Emperor Li Sheng’s words came out, everyone’s complexion changed.
Fight against the Meng Yuan Empire in Chang’an City?
Were they surrendering the territories outside of Chang’an City to the Meng Yuan Empire?
Most of the Officials were puzzled, while a few of them turned pale. They vaguely realized the reason why Emperor Li Sheng was doing this.
Was it possible that there was something wrong about the Legend in the Imperial Palace?
The Officials were uneasy, but they could only follow Emperor Li Sheng’s orders.
Six months flew by in a blink of an eye.
In the past six months, Emperor Li Sheng gathered all of the Empire’s troops and concentrated them outside Chang’an City.
On this day, Emperor Li Sheng and the Officials were waiting on the wall of Chang’an City.
“Your Majesty.”
“The Meng Yuan Empire’s army has arrived.”
The Commander of the Imperial Army walked to Emperor Li Sheng’s side and bowed.
“They have arrived?”
Emperor Li Sheng looked outside Chang’an City.
He saw a thin black line slowly appearing at the end of his line of sight.
This black line looked like a pack of locusts. It was densely packed and exuded a chilling atmosphere.
The Meng Yuan Empire’s army was approaching Chang’an City.
[Weng~]!!!
At this moment, a terrifying aura soared into the sky from the depths of the Meng Yuan Empire’s Army and unscrupulously swept towards Chang’an City.
Wherever the aura passed, the Tang Empire’s soldiers would turn pale. Every time they moved, they would have to exert several times more strength than before.
For the common Martial Artists, under this aura, they felt their Internal Strength running out slowly and their strength was suppressed.
“This is?”
The expression of the Commander of the Imperial Army changed a lot. He turned his head and looked towards Emperor Li Sheng: “Your Majesty, the Imperial Teacher has taken action.”
…
At the same time, under Chang’an City.
In the underground Palace.
Su Qin slowly opened his eyes.
