Wu Shattered Star River

“I knew it, I knew it!”

Inside the Southern Emperor's stronghold, Kong Xuan said with a pale face, “I told you not to kill them, not to kill them, but you insisted on killing them. Now look at the trouble we're in, right?”

A group of Dao Ancestor Realm experts in the hall wore gloomy expressions. Qing Ning sat above, feeling flustered, and could only try to appear calm as she looked at everyone.

Seventh Ancestor said in a deep voice, “Don't panic. What's done is done. Complaining is useless. Let's think of a way to deal with it, shall we?”

“Deal with it how?”

Kong Xuan's face was so dark it seemed like it would drip water. He said, “The Second Elder of the Tianlin Clan, Cang Huang, has been at the seventh level of the Dao Ancestor Realm for 300,000 years. His combat power is considered very strong among those at the seventh level of the Dao Ancestor Realm. What do we have to stop him?”

“Don't even mention him bringing twenty Dao Ancestor Realm experts. Even if he comes alone, we won't be enough for him to kill.”

The Tu Clan's Clan King sighed and said, “The Central Domain Great Emperor is too ruthless. Is he not afraid of the Western Domain Great Emperor leading a team to kill their way in? He actually transferred Cang Huang over here.”

The Fa Clan's Clan King curled his lip and said, “The Western Domain Great Emperor has a relatively calm personality. His son just died in the Central Domain recently. How would he dare to kill his way into the Central Domain again?”

“Taking ten thousand steps back, even if he did kill his way in, what could he do? Seize a piece of territory? How long would it take for Cang Huang to pacify our Southern Domain? Once Cang Huang has pacified the Southern Domain, he can easily return to support and defeat the Western Domain army.”

“Moreover, the Great Elder of the Tianlin Clan is stationed in the Ancestral Dragon Sea. The Ancestral Dragon Sea seems to have been very peaceful during this period. As long as the Western Domain army dares to kill its way into the Central Domain, the Great Elder can go to support at any time. In addition… who knows if Tong Shan is dead or not?”

Tong Shan was the fourth seventh-level Dao Ancestor Realm expert in the Central Domain. He hasn't shown his face for many millennia and is rumored to be dead.

“What's the panic?”

The Sky Ape Clan's Clan King said, “Yao Ao will definitely not sit idly by. Maybe Zhen Ji or he might personally come to the Southern Domain.”

“Let's retreat first, to the Sky River, and set up more formations there. Even if Cang Huang comes, we must do our best to resist and buy more time.”

The Divine Flame Old Ancestor stood up and said, “When soldiers come, we will block them; when water comes, we will dam it. There's no point in discussing too much now. Let's retreat to the Sky River first.”

A group of experts understood this principle and all began to retreat, abandoning this stronghold and withdrawing to the Sky River.

Seventh Ancestor personally began to set up formations. Although these formations were not of great significance to seventh-level Dao Ancestor Realm experts, setting up more would delay them for a longer time.

The Kong Clan's Clan King and the Fa and Tu Clan Kings began to secretly send messages, telling their clansmen to prepare a backup plan, first evacuate a portion of the elites, and transfer most of the clan's resources.

This way, even if they were truly defeated and the Southern Domain was destroyed, they wouldn't be exterminated.

Half a day later, a piece of news came that made all the experts feel relieved.

The Eastern Domain Grand Lord had personally come to support them, and had even brought Lei Ni裳 and Ying Sha with him.

The Grand Lord was at the seventh level of the Dao Ancestor Realm, and Lei Ni裳 and Ying Sha's combat power were not weak. Upon receiving the news, the Southern Domain was overjoyed.

Seventh Ancestor immediately arranged for Qing Xueyun to go to the southeastern Sky Domain entrance to welcome them.

“Aunt Lei and Lord Ying are coming?”

Jiang Han was a little surprised. The Grand Lord came to support them, but instead of bringing the Dao Ancestor Realm experts from his faction, he brought Lei Ni裳 and Ying Sha?

In fact, Lei Ni裳 and Ying Sha wanted to come themselves, fearing that the Grand Lord would attack Jiang Han.

The Grand Lord thought about it and agreed, because if he wasn't there, he was afraid that Zhen Ji would suddenly kill her way over and destroy his base. Lei Ni裳 and Ying Sha were both staunch supporters of Zhen Ji, so it was naturally good to take them to the Southern Domain.

“Royal Prince Jiang, Royal Prince Ye!”

Seventh Ancestor knew about the relationship between Jiang Han, Ye Wanqiu, and the Grand Lord. He said, “You have also worked hard during this period. Why don't you go to Holy Ape City to rest for a while?”

Jiang Han smiled upon hearing this and said, “Alright, then we'll go rest for a while. If anything happens, send me a message!”

Qing Ning panicked when she saw Jiang Han was about to leave, and cast her gaze towards Seventh Ancestor, but Seventh Ancestor shook his head.

The Grand Lord had come, and this was the uncrowned king of the Eastern Domain. As the King of the Southern Domain, Qing Ning couldn't possibly not come forward to receive him.

Jiang Han and Ye Wanqiu teleported away. Although they wanted to meet Lei Ni裳, they didn't want to meet the Grand Lord, in case a conflict occurred.

Time passed again for more than half a day!

A scout brought news that Cang Huang had already led his team into the Sky Domain and had stationed themselves at the large stronghold at their entrance. He had also mobilized millions of troops and had retaken many strongholds.

“The timing is about right!”

A group of experts breathed a slight sigh of relief. Even if Cang Huang set out now, it would take him a day and a night to reach here. They could rely on the Sky River to block him for a while, which would be enough time for the Grand Lord, Lei Ni裳, and Ying Sha to arrive.

Jiang Han and Ye Wanqiu didn't care about so much and returned to Holy Ape City to rest.

Cang Huang didn't stay for too long. After staying at the stronghold for a while, he led Cang Min and a group of Dao Ancestor Realm experts towards the Sky River.

By the time they arrived at the Sky River, a day and a night had already passed, and Seventh Ancestor had set up a few more formations here.

“Everyone, go in!”

Cang Huang wasn't as foolish as Cang Min and directly led all the Dao Ancestor Realm experts inside.

Seventh Ancestor and the others didn't dare to come out to fight and hid inside the Azure God Tree.

“Boom!”

Cang Huang glanced inside and directly ordered all the Dao Ancestor Realm experts to attack, first smashing the formations here.

If these formations weren't smashed, they wouldn't be able to enter the Southern Domain from the entrance.

These formations were very strong, but Cang Huang had so many experts, and Cang Huang himself had taken action. The attacks of a seventh-level Dao Ancestor Realm expert were terrifying.

“Good, good!”

The group of experts inside the Azure God Tree's shield breathed another sigh of relief. It would take at least three or four days to smash all these formations, right? The Grand Lord, Lei Ni裳, and Ying Sha would have already arrived.

Sure enough…

After waiting for more than two days, four figures entered the Sky River. It was the Grand Lord, Lei Ni裳, Ying Sha, and Qing Xueyun.

“Greetings, Lord Xiong, greetings, Lord Lei, Lord Ying!”

Seventh Ancestor and the others hurriedly saluted. The Grand Lord was, after all, a seventh-level Dao Ancestor Realm expert, the King of the Eastern Domain, and had come to support them, so their attitude was naturally better.

Lei Ni裳 and Ying Sha glanced around and, upon discovering that Jiang Han and Ye Wanqiu weren't here, breathed a slight sigh of relief. They saluted Qing Ning and said, “Greetings, Your Majesty Qing Ning!”

Qing Ning nodded slightly and cast her gaze towards Lord Xiong. She bowed and said, “On behalf of the entire Southern Domain's people, Qing Ning thanks Lord Xiong, Lord Lei, and Lord Ying for coming to aid the Southern Domain. The Southern Domain will remember this kindness and will definitely repay it handsomely in the future.”

“You're too kind, King Qing!”

The Grand Lord replied with a fake smile. Not long ago, the Fourth Lord and the others had come and had two Dao Ancestor Realm experts killed here. These were all experts from his faction.

But he could only pretend that he didn't know anything. He said awkwardly, “The Four Domains Alliance should help each other. This is what we should do!”

The Grand Lord didn't waste any words and cast his gaze outside, sensing a group of experts attacking outside.

He pondered for a moment and frowned, saying, “Our strength is about the same. Do you have a battle plan? By the way… where are Jiang Han and Ye Wanqiu? Why aren't they here? Without Jiang Han, this battle will be very difficult for us, and we might even be defeated.”

“Uh…”

Seventh Ancestor and the Sky Ape Clan's Clan King exchanged a look, their hearts sinking.

What did the Grand Lord mean by this?

Was he calling Jiang Han over so he could take the opportunity to kill Jiang Han in the midst of the chaos?
