Chapter 269

Perhaps what they are doing is a joke to other countries.

And such a thing could only happen in an environment like the Yan Kingdom.

Why would an unknown sect dare to confront the imperial court?

King Yan, Mu Changyan, was still there. No one knew that he was being controlled, so King Yan represented the authority of this country.

And what the Heavenly Enlightenment Sect was doing, in this sense, was rebellion.

Such a conspiracy was in the capital.

If it had been any other country, such a thing could not have happened.

If it was in the Great Xi, no one would even think about it.

However, in the Yan Country, they were able to do so with a certain probability of success.

Only in the Yan Country would they have a chance of success.

Her Majesty was bent on ruling the court, and the great families, though submissive on the surface, did not really want a foreign woman in power, and the woman"s ambition was well-known.

This was not the chaotic era of the Seven Kingdoms from thousands of years ago, when the empress dowager"s power was so great that she could change the king of a nation at will.

As long as the interests of those big families were at stake, they would not be trampled upon.

Mu Changyan was a puppet, his will was not to be found in the capital.

With the Celestial Sect blatantly rebelling against them, only a group of martial artists had been called upon to attack the sect. The decline and decline of the Yan Dynasty could be imagined.

The most important thing was that the Yan Kingdom"s army was still engaged in a fierce battle at the border.

Hundreds of thousands of elite warriors had no time to care about the capital.

This was a complicated situation … According to the rules, no matter how domineering the empress dowager was, Mu Changyan held the Infantry Division in her hands. With military power in her hands, what was there to be afraid of?

However, in reality, holding the army was not the same as holding the military power. What could be controlled was only a small portion of the garrison forces in the capital, which was the part of the army that w.a.n.g KaiTai and Fang Dao held.

As for the Imperial Army, it was under the control of the Embroidery Palace.

As for the hundreds of thousands of men of the Yan Country, it was impossible for them to be sent back from the border.

The sixteen kingdoms didn"t fight with each other for years. Once they returned from the border, their opponents would pounce on them and bite them once they detected it.

And it was precisely this division that could not control the numbers that successfully restrained the empress dowager.

As for the empress dowager, she had been tied down by the various great clans of the imperial court, so she stood on three legs on the surface.

Amongst these three pillars, the King of Swallow, Mu Changyan, was undoubtedly the weakest.

By now, Mu Changyan was no longer a force to be reckoned with.

After combining the powers of the Military Department and the Gathering of the Shang Clan, the peaceful Heaven"s Enlightenment Sect had replaced Mu Changyan as the new member of the Three-Legged Golden Crow Clan.

If the Holy Emperor of the Great Xi, Chen Nuo, heard about the Yan Kingdom, he would probably laugh out loud.

For a country to be in such a situation, what was the need for such a thing?

However, such a rotten country had been carefully maintained by these three forces that fought openly and secretly, yet it still did not fall.

This was because everyone was very clear that their interests were built on the basis of the existence of the Yan Kingdom.

Once the State of Yan was destroyed, everything would be in vain.

This was why An Zuzheng and the others were so adamant in defending the Heavenly Adept Sect in the capital. They formed a threat to Empress Dowager Su and Mu Changyan.

Gu Zhaogong was squatting there, drawing on the ground with a branch in his hand. Soon, he drew a complicated diagram of the relationship between the two of them.

""Empress Dowager Su still hasn"t moved. She doesn"t want those in the alliance to see her trump cards clearly.""

Gu Zhaogong raised his head and looked at An Zaiyue, ""And the current situation has already exceeded my expectations, so the countermeasures should have changed … In fact, at this moment, King Yan could be ignored.""

Duke Yan didn"t have any strength in his hands, and the only ones who could move were the palace maids and eunuchs around him.

""And those adults … they seem to have good patience. They"re just waiting for us to force the empress dowager into a corner and see what else she can do.""

He sighed, ""Actually, this is an incredibly sad matter …""

""Maybe we can change the country.""

Gu Zhaogong said, ""But we know very well that this is rebellion.""

""I still say that if you fail to succeed, you will rebel. If you succeed, you will be called the Protector of the Kingdom.""

Gu Zhaoye stood up. ""Now we"ll see what Empress Dowager Su will do next. Those martial artists should still rush over, but they won"t be able to affect anything.""

""Master Huo, this is really eye-opening.""

""I was scared too,"" An Zaixin said with a smile.

He looked at the eight Lava Cannons, ""But … I don"t have the most powerful spirit stone bullets left for the cannon. I just went to take a look, and there are only two left.""

""Those martial artists will also pounce on us in a while, it will be a battle of close-quarters.""

As he spoke, those sects that had suffered heavy losses in the distance began to stir again.

These people would not give up so easily, especially after a certain amount of losses, they were even more unwilling to give up so easily.

And they became wise and began to congregate together to choose a leader to command.

This way, it wouldn"t be as chaotic as before.

Furthermore, more and more people joined them. Although those who joined later were not cultivators, the majority of them were hooligans who wanted to take advantage of the situation to rob others.

These days, the conflicts on the east side of the city were exceptionally brutal, those rascals had no room for survival.

Now that they saw that the Heavenly Enlightenment Sect was about to be exterminated, these people rushed over like mice smelling a scent.

""It doesn"t seem to work for someone like you, who controls bad guys.""

Tantai Che sat there and laughed, ""It seems that I was afraid that you would only be temporary.""

""Because I am not terrible enough,"" answered Antony.

""That"s true. If a person is terrifying to a certain extent, people don"t even have the courage to fight back.""

For example, the royal family of the Da Xi family were so powerful that they could suffocate people. Who would dare to resist?

""Holy Emperor Chen Wuzuo"s fart, it can even blow a corner of the world away.""

The no-name army on the other side began to regroup. It was obvious that they were determined to win this time.

Gu Zhaogong watched from high above, ""There are roughly two thousand people in the front, heading towards the main entrance.""

Some of them have already moved to another direction to gather. They are probably trying to take advantage of the time we have to defend the main entrance to rush over from another direction.

""This leader has some ideas, the other group is also a feint. Look … there are almost a hundred people gathering at the back, it should be a gathering of all the experts.""

An Zeng looked over there, and after a moment of silence, he said, ""Although I said it was a feint, in fact, it could be considered a main attack. The enemy forces are strong, and any three attacks could change the situation.""

Gu Xiangtong nodded: ""That"s true, so I can"t let my guard down.""

Old Huo said, ""Leave the main entrance to me. So what if it"s two thousand people? It"s just a mob.""

Gu Zhaogong smiled and said, ""If that"s the case, then let"s beat them until they accept it.""

Since there"s nothing to worry about at the main entrance, then Owner … please lead a group of elites and sneak out from the other direction. Before the second team gets close, we will directly kill them and catch them off guard.

As for those hundred and ten experts, we can handle them.

""General w.a.n.g KaiTai and General Fang Dao, I"m afraid that will be enough to defeat those people.""

""Alright, I"ll lead the way.""

He rushed down from above and waved to Skinny Du. ""Let"s go out and fight each other.""

Skinny Du couldn"t wait to go out and fight, so he immediately rushed up eagerly.

Anjou found w.a.n.g Kai-tai and Fang Daozhong, and the two men went up on alert.

At the same time, the experts from the Gathering Merchant Guild were in charge of receiving them. No matter how strong those small sects were, they were no match for w.a.n.g KaiTai and Fang Daozhang.

""Sir Chen, I would like to borrow the captain for a moment.""

Chen Zaiyan, who was sitting at the side in a daze, was stunned. ""Ah?""

""Now that you"ve reached this point, you can do whatever you want.""

An Zaiyan could tell that Chen Zaiyan was a little depressed, and knew that he was regretting his words.

For a person like Chen Zaiyan, what he cared about the most was his reputation.

It was completely different from last time when he had been wronged. Last time, he had been wronged. This time, he had truly become a traitor.

The King of Swallow was still there. The more he thought about it, the more regretful he felt. He had brought the men from the Military Department with him to protect Xiao Qidao, who he couldn"t confirm his ident.i.ty.

""Milord.""

""It is an indisputable fact that the King has been brought under control.""

Although both you and I feel heartache, it can"t change.

Poor king, but we must look ahead.

Xiao Liu`er said that if the King was really controlled by the Silver Needle Gu Method, then... he would not be able to be saved.

According to the records, unless the person under control had extraordinary perseverance and faith, and relied on faith to maintain his sanity, his body would still be out of his control.

""Your Majesty no longer has a chance. Great Yan will need you in the future.""

Chen Zaiyan looked up blankly, ""Does Great Yan have a future?""

An Zeng stood up and smiled, ""Yes, he"s among us.""

He walked over to the two hundred or so officers and stood in front of them. After organizing his words, he said: ""I need fifty people to follow me out. A group of people came around from the back to attack.""

I know that most of you are probably regretting your actions and regretting your involvement in this matter.

""But now, we don"t seem to have any other way out besides winning, do we?""

The commander, Lieutenant Qian Ji, pushed the mask on Du Jianli"s face, revealing a resolute and cold face: ""An Zou, you think too much.""

We were caught up in it for no reason at all, but we"d had enough of it.

If Empress Dowager Su didn"t get rid of him, he wouldn"t be able to revive her.

We were carefully selected from the military. Who wouldn"t want to defend this country?

""It"s just that we don"t have the courage you do, so we don"t dare to do as you say … If we had, we would have already rushed into the Embroidery Palace.""

He turned around. ""Come with me. Fifty men, let"s kill our way out and show the mob what is called a soldier and what is called a war.""

After saying that, he and An Zhe strode out.

An Zeng, Du Jianli, Du Jianli, and the fifty Thousand Revolution Commanders. Fifty-three of them went out of the backyard, bypa.s.sed the ruins, and ran into the group of more than a thousand players that were planning on attacking from the back.

Fifty-three to a thousand.

However, no matter how one looked at it, everyone on An Zeng"s side felt like they were bullying someone.

""You guys are good at teamwork, so I won"t get mixed up in it. This fatty will do it himself.""

A purplish-gold armor materialized around his thin body. He brandished the purplish-gold trident and rushed forward.

As for the fifty Qianji field officers, they were quickly divided into a battle squad, forming a team of five, and their teamwork was extremely well coordinated.

The ten combat squads moved forward, and with a single round of crossbow shots, they overturned a layer. Then, they rotated their weapons and drew their sabers. All sorts of weapons appeared, each possessing endless amounts of destructive power.

These military officers had used a lot of manpower and resources to train this officer, letting the enemy know what a killing machine was.

An Zaiyue summoned the Nine Netherpa.s.sage Magic Bell. ""Let"s use a big move …""

He pressed his hand down, testing the power of the Nine Serenities Magic Bell for the first time.

The nine bells in the sky transformed into a paG.o.da made of chains and fell down with a loud bang.

After the nine paG.o.das fell to the ground in a circle, almost everyone was surrounded.

Then, from the nine paG.o.das came the sound of bells ringing at the same time. The sound was mighty, and the hundreds of people trapped within were all killed at the same time!

After the sound wave, only dust remained.

This was the power of a Purple rank magic weapon.

The purple rank magic item was 201, while the purple rank magic equipment was 36."
