Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

After Jun Wuxie and Su Xiaoxiao left the plaza, they checked several broad roads, all of which had road signs.

They chose a road leading to the main city of the Star Domain, but after walking for half a day, they still didn't see the city.

"How much further?"

Jun Wuxie asked Su Xiaoxiao.

"I don't know."

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head. Jun Wuxie was speechless. "You said you were very familiar with the Spirit Void Realm?"

"I've never been to the Star Domain. I only played around in the Galaxy Domain a few times, and that was with the sect elders."

Jun Wuxie: …

He realized he had been tricked by Su Xiaoxiao again.

This little girl probably came to the Spirit Void Realm with him just to cause trouble.

It wasn't until dusk.

That he finally saw the main city.

The territory of this Star Domain was indeed quite vast.

Not to mention the vast mountains, just the distance from the plaza to the main city took him and Su Xiaoxiao a whole day at full speed!

The main city was extremely majestic, filled with an ancient and weathered aura, giving the impression that it wasn't built by outsiders, but rather by the Spirit Void Realm's master.

The city was brightly lit and very lively.

Even from a distance, he could see a constant stream of people.

"Ugh, I can't go on…"

Su Xiaoxiao suddenly said.

What can't she go on with?

Jun Wuxie was startled. Turning around, he saw Su Xiaoxiao's body gradually fading.

"My soul and body can only support me in the Spirit Void Realm for so long. I'm going out first. Don't run around by yourself. " Su Xiaoxiao reached out and pinched Jun Wuxie's tender cheek, saying, "Be good, listen to your sister's words ~"

"Su Xiaoxiao!" Jun Wuxie slapped her hand away and pinched her cheek, saying, "I'm going out with you. I have to keep an eye on you now!"

How could he let Su Xiaoxiao return to the outside world alone?

If this little girl wasn't watched by him, she would probably spread his embarrassing stories throughout the entire Zongwang Mountain!

Now, there were experts from various forces and thousands of craftsmen on Zongwang Mountain. If this got out, the whole world would know that he was called a ten-year-old who hadn't been weaned in the Spirit Void Realm!

"Okay, okay, you have to be nicer to me in the future, or else I will…"

"You dare!"

Jun Wuxie raised his eyebrows. This girl was even threatening him.

Letting her come to the Spirit Void Realm this time was truly the worst decision. He had fallen into a trap and even left himself vulnerable!

They returned to the outside world together.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Yue Yao sitting in front of the bed, gazing at him tenderly.

"Yao'er."

Jun Wuxie sat up, reaching out to caress her face, and subconsciously looked at his hand.

It was still the familiar big hand, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If his physical body outside had also turned into a ten-year-old, that would have been a disaster.

"Jun-gege."

Yue Yao grabbed his hand and pressed it against her face, saying, "A few hours ago, the Eighth Prince came looking for you."

"Bei Lan?" Jun Wuxie was startled, saying, "Did he say what he wanted to see me about?"

"No."

Yue Yao shook her head gently, saying, "But he seemed quite anxious."

"What could that kid be anxious about?"

Jun Wuxie shook his head, not thinking much of it.

At this moment, Su Xiaoxiao blinked her big eyes, saying mysteriously to Yue Yao, "Yue Yao-jiejie, let me tell you, something very interesting happened…"

Before she could finish speaking, Jun Wuxie covered her mouth and forcibly dragged her outside, warning, "If you dare to talk nonsense, the conditions I promised you won't count, and don't even think about spending my money in the future!"

"Hmph, I won't say it then!"

Su Xiaoxiao walked away angrily.

"Wuxie-gege, how was your trip to the Spirit Void Realm?"

Yue Yao stepped forward and gently held his arm, asking.

Jun Wuxie's mouth twitched slightly. He wanted to say it was terrible, but thinking of the gains he had made, he smiled and said, "It was great. I got a hidden reward inside and broke through a realm."

Yue Yao smiled faintly, just about to speak.

Urgent footsteps came from outside, followed by a rapid knocking on the door.

Jun Wuxie frowned. It was already dark. Who was so inconsiderate, knocking on his and Yue Yao's door at night?

Just as he was about to ask, he heard Ji Beilan's anxious voice: "Yue Yao-jiejie, is jiefu still cultivating?"

Jun Wuxie was startled and opened the door.

"Jiefu…"

Ji Beilan was about to speak, but Jun Wuxie closed the door behind him and dragged him into the courtyard, saying, "What's the matter? Why are you so flustered? Coming to knock on my and Yao'er's door so late, you're becoming more and more unruly!"

"Jiefu!"

Ji Beilan clenched his fists, lowered his head, and choked up, "The Xuanjia Army… the Xuanjia Army…"

Jun Wuxie's heart skipped a beat: "What happened to the Xuanjia Army?!"

"The Xuanjia Army suffered heavy casualties. Of the million soldiers, more than half were killed or wounded!" Ji Beilan's eyes were bloodshot, saying, "Three million border troops… were completely annihilated! The border was breached, the city was captured!"

"When did this happen?"

Jun Wuxie then noticed that Ji Beilan's face was haggard and he was much thinner than before.

"Three days ago! We only received the emergency report from the border last night! Now, we have no choice. Father is already overwhelmed. He sent me to find you, hoping that jiefu will help us, help Da Zhou, for the sake of my imperial sister!"

After he finished speaking, he knelt down with a plop, tears welling up in his tiger eyes!

"What are you doing!" Jun Wuxie pulled him up, saying, "Your imperial sister is my woman. I will definitely do my best for the imperial family. As a citizen of Da Zhou, I will also try my best to help Da Zhou!"

"This time, we are truly facing internal and external troubles. The situation is very tricky. The border city was captured, and the war is critical. Father tried to accelerate the training of a new Xuanjia Army to replenish the Xuanjia soldiers, but the Minister of Revenue said there was no money!"

"Father personally inspected the national treasury and found it empty! So, he urgently summoned the four great families, hoping they would provide some financial resources for emergency use, but unexpectedly, they took the opportunity to force the palace, demanding that Father make the Third Prince the crown prince and abdicate immediately, otherwise they wouldn't give a single cent!"

"Despicable! You don't have to worry about the funds. I'll provide however much you need!" Jun Wuxie said, pondering for a moment, "The most important thing now is the situation at the border. Don't worry about the capital for now. With funds, your father won't be coerced by them. As for their forcing the palace, we still need to discuss it at length."

"Jiefu is right. Father said that the four great families dared to do this even knowing you were around, which means they must have something to rely on. The Minister of Revenue colluded with the four great families and has been deceiving Father for years, emptying the national treasury. He has been executed!"

"This matter is more complicated than you think," Jun Wuxie said in a deep voice. He had a very bad premonition, saying, "What is the situation at the border now? How far has the Xilin army advanced?"

"Shunyi Prefecture has fallen. Nearly a hundred million people in the entire prefecture… have been subjected to the inhumane massacre by the Xilin army. Now, the entire Shunyi has become a living hell!"

Hearing this, Jun Wuxie's eyes twitched violently, and the hand hanging at his waist clenched into a fist.

"Completely annihilated. The remaining four hundred thousand Xuanjia Army, with over two hundred thousand wounded Xuanjia soldiers, retreated to Guanshan Prefecture and are resisting the Xilin army's attack with the million defenders of Guanshan Prefecture!"

"Father has already ordered the emergency mobilization of five million troops from the surrounding Yanyun Prefecture, Linghe Prefecture, Jingshui Prefecture, Yingzhou Prefecture, Pingzhou Prefecture, and Jizhou Prefecture to Guanshan!"

"It's just that now the national treasury is short of funds, making it difficult to guarantee logistical supplies, especially the Qi Replenishing Pills, Blood Replenishing Pills, and Healing Pills that the soldiers urgently need to replenish their true energy and blood energy…"

"I understand. Go back and tell your father that there's no need to worry about border supplies. Da Zhou has me!"

"Jiefu, thank you!"

"Go."

Jun Wuxie threw a storage ring to him.

Watching Ji Beilan disappear into the night, he gradually frowned, falling into deep thought.

"The high-level officials of Da Zhou have been infiltrated by Xilin, and the entire regime is teetering. Now, I'm afraid it will be difficult for His Majesty's will to be conveyed to the border, including the mobilization of those five million troops. In a few days, Guanshan will be in danger."

Yue Yao moved her lotus steps lightly, walked out of the house, and said softly.

"Yao'er, I have a feeling that Da Zhou is probably going to encounter a great calamity this time…"

Jun Wuxie's mood was heavy. He had this feeling when he learned that the border city had fallen.

When he returned to Da Zhou, he passed by the border wilderness and had a brief gathering with the Xuanjia Army generals.

How long has it been?

The originally impregnable border was breached by Xilin in a short period of time, the border troops were completely annihilated, and the brave and good-at-fighting Xuanjia Army with wills of steel suffered more than half of its casualties!

Among them, the Black Demon Sect and the Demon Hunting Hall probably played an important role, otherwise it wouldn't have been like this.

Those two forces have probably fully intervened.

Now, all the people of Da Zhou are unable to stay out of it.

The Soul Hunting Hall behind Xilin has long regarded him, Jun Wuxie, as a target. If Da Zhou falls into the hands of the enemy, he and Yue Yao will be in even more danger, and the sect that is preparing to revive will also suffer a blow.

"Wuxie-gege, have you ever thought about why Xilin is determined to take Da Zhou first? In fact, they could have taken the countries surrounding Da Zhou first, forming a semi-encirclement of Da Zhou, but they didn't do that."

Jun Wuxie's heart jumped.

If Yue Yao hadn't said it, he would have really overlooked it.

"Yao'er believes that Da Zhou may have something that the force behind Xilin is eager to obtain. As for what it is, it is unknown. If Yao'er's guess is true, then among the other dominant forces besides the Soul Hunting Hall, are there also forces that know about that thing? Are they secretly involved in this matter?"

Jun Wuxie's heart skipped a beat.

If that was the case, it would be too terrifying!

How could Da Zhou withstand such an impact?

"Regardless of the truth, because of Yin Lan, because of the Soul Hunter Palace, and because I am a citizen of the Great Zhou, I cannot stand idly by!" Jun Wuxie stood up and said, "Yao'er, you rest first. I must immediately go to the Juba斋 to prepare war supplies!"

"Yes, be careful. The capital must now be lurking with people from the Black Demon Sect and the Soul Hunter Palace. Otherwise, the four great families would not be so unscrupulous."

"I will."

Jun Wuxie kissed her delicate lips and left like a gust of wind.
