The Jia Ma Empire and the Allied Forces of the three great empires had once again entered a standoff.
Of course, the Three Great Empire Alliance was rather different now. The Mulan Empire had become a vassal state, and even its army was treated as inferior.
During this time, many forces within the Mulan Empire had risen up against the Jin Yan Empire's invasion, but the outcomes had all been much the same. No one could stand against Yan Luotian, a genuine Dou Zong powerhouse.
Moreover, the annexation of the Mulan Empire had gone extremely smoothly. Xiao Yi Xian had not even needed to act. Yan Luotian alone had brought together more than half the forces within the Mulan Empire.
Black Mountain Fortress, council hall.
Everyone sat around the table, and the atmosphere was not particularly tense.
"The Soul Hall Protector isn't among the Allied Forces." Xiao Shuang leaned against the table and said, "If our guess is correct, that Soul Hall Protector should be in the Chu Yun Empire, colluding with a force called the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect."
"If the Soul Hall Protector isn't here, then as long as we kill Yan Luotian, the Three Great Empire Alliance will fall apart." A jade-green flame danced on Xiao Yan's fingertip like a sprite as he smiled. "Why don't we pay Sect Master Yan Luotian a visit first, then go have some fun with that Soul Hall Protector?"
When Yan Luotian was mentioned, Xiao Yan's expression did not change in the slightest. Yet the moment the words "Soul Hall" left his mouth, anyone could sense the chill in his voice.
Old Yao had been captured by the Soul Hall, and Xiao Yan's father's disappearance was also connected to that organization.
"What are you planning to do? Kill Yan Luotian first?"
