The Battle for the Imperial City (Seven): A One-Sided Situation

The current battle, at the point where the Grandmaster are fighting, is overwhelmingly turning against the royal family.

Originally, there were fifteen Grandmaster in the royal family fighting, but now two are dead, one is crippled, and four have escaped.

All that remains are four Grandmaster from the National Preceptor's Mansion and four Grandmaster from the Eunuch Bureau.

The four Grandmaster of the Eunuch Bureau were not unwilling to escape, but they were surrounded so tightly that they had no chance to escape at all.

As for the four Grandmaster of the National Preceptor's Mansion, they advance and retreat together with Dao Fan Shangren.

As long as Dao Fan Shangren is still fighting, they will not think of escaping.

This is because all four of them were orphans personally rescued by Dao Fan Shangren, and were also Grandmaster personally trained by Dao Fan Shangren.

Although they were nominally Dao Fan Shangren's subordinates, in their hearts they regarded Dao Fan Shangren as their mentor.

On the other side of the city wall, the battlefield between Minor Grandmaster and Ranked Martial Practitioner appeared rather chaotic.

Because Qi Shengyuan and Kuang Qianzi were leading a group of people in a chaotic killing spree.

Moreover, both of them were senior Grandmaster, so killing Minor Grandmaster and Ranked Martial Practitioner was as easy as cutting melons and vegetables.

Before long, the well-organized Tianwu Army, the Guard Army, and the Eunuch Bureau were completely disrupted.

Their men, along with those wandering Jianghu practitioners, followed behind them, killing indiscriminately and seizing credit as they went.

The disheveled state that Qi Shengyuan and Kuang Qianzi had been in before they arrived is completely gone.

They are all full of vigor now, looking like they are invincible and capable of dominating the world.

Qi Shengyuan wrapped his palm in Yuan Qi and struck at a Minor Grandmaster in front of him.

The Minor Grandmaster of the Eunuch Bureau department in front of him didn't even have time to react before Qi Shengyuan's palm strike sent him flying backward.

While still in mid-air, he was already spitting out blood, and his life force began to dissipate.

His excitement at killing those rogue martial artists vanished without a trace.

Qi Shengyuan didn't care about him at all. He flashed and appeared in front of him, continuing to strike him with a palm.

This time, after taking this blow, the Minor Grandmaster of the Eunuch Bureau in front of him was completely lifeless.

Qi Shengyuan killed a Minor Grandmaster from the Eunuch Bureau with two blows, then turned his head and looked around, his gaze continuing to search for the other Minor Grandmaster.

He planned to take care of all the Minor Grandmaster on the other side first, so that those minor forces Minor Grandmaster could then play a role.

Qi Shengyuan found another Minor Grandmaster of the Tianwu Army. This Minor Grandmaster of the Tianwu Army was previously a member of the Martial Prohibition Hall, but now he followed Chen Qianliu the Tianwu Army.

On the other side Kuang Qianzi was much more direct. Holding a long sword, she used her movement technique to launch a continuous barrage of attacks on the Minor Grandmaster of the guards.

If even one sword strike is not blocked, death will be the immediate consequence.

Meanwhile, her men were already engaged in fierce battles.

The chaotic situation among the Tianwu Army, the Guard Army, and the Eunuch Bureau quickly caught the attention of Jiang Lan and Wei Jin, who were standing on the city wall of the imperial city.

They had been focused on the battle between the Grandmaster above, which is why they hadn't noticed the battle between the Ranked Martial Practitioner and the Minor Grandmaster below.

Because from the beginning, the combined forces of the Tianwu Army, the Guard Army, and the Eunuch Bureau were quite large, they didn't even notice that Kuang Qianzi and Qi Shengyuan had already arrived with their men.

In particular, after Wei Jin saw Wei Chang lead the escape, four Grandmaster from the Eunuch Bureau followed suit.

Now, only four Grandmaster remain in the Eunuch Bureau, struggling to hold on. He desperately wanted to fly forward, grab Wei Chang, and then gouge him out with his own hands.

Although Wei Chang and he didn't get along well, he was able to carry out the mission well.

That's why he didn't deliberately target him; he never expected that at this crucial moment, he would betray the royal family.

However, the main thing now is to see how the battle goes on the side of the Peak Grandmaster.

If even the Peak Grandmaster can't hold on, then the situation will be irreversible.

However, let's advise the Emperor to make arrangements as soon as possible!

"Your Majesty, the current situation is quite unfavorable for us. We need to make preparations as soon as possible," Wei Jin said after careful consideration.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Lan turned to look at Wei Jin, her brows furrowed, and asked, "What's your opinion?"

"Your Majesty, if we are defeated, the Three Sects will probably not let us off the hook."

Upon hearing Wei Jin's words, Jiang Lan's aura gradually turned icy.

Although he had thought about this issue before, he still found it hard to accept that his subordinate had brought it up in person.

Because he couldn't accept his defeat, he had already assessed the strength of both sides in Sky City before the war began.

However, he had no idea that the three sects would gather so many Jianghu artists to deal with him.

Most importantly, the three sects had already sent people to infiltrate Sky City long ago, waiting for things to develop before launching a swift and decisive attack.

In fact, Jiang Lan had already experienced the dark methods of the three sects long ago.

It's just that he doesn't learn his lesson. Perhaps it's because he finally got rid of the Martial Prohibition Hall that was weighing on his head during this period of time.

However, it's too late to talk about these things now. Let's think about how to clean up the mess!

Previously, Jiang Lan still held onto a sliver of hope.

Even if the three sects win this time, they will probably still preserve the royal family.

It's just that they're making some excessive demands.

However, all of this is based on the premise that the Great Qian Imperial Family can still control the situation.

Seeing the current situation, Jiang Lan also began to worry.

Immediately, Jiang Lan began to think of a solution.

However, before Jiang Lan could come up with a solution, another group of people appeared on the city wall of the imperial city.

It turned out that Fu Yunyue had already rescued Tian Zhu and then arrived with a large group of the Moonfall Sect.

In fact, Fu Yunyue did not want to get involved in this battle.

However, since she had brought the Moonfall Sect members into Sky City.

If we don't participate in the battle, and the three sects find out afterwards...

It's entirely possible that the three sects could wipe out the Moonfall Sect.

Moreover, Tian Zhu was also wondering if he could take this opportunity to get revenge.

Therefore, Fu Yunyue simply led her people to join the battle.

As for the Prison Oversight Bureau, they continued to guard the prison under Yu He's leadership.

He had not received any orders to participate in the war, and he was only keeping his promise to release Tian Zhu if Fu Yunyue won.

In that case, even the emperor wouldn't be able to blame him.

As for whether he held back during his fight with Fu Yunyue, only he himself knows.

When Jiang Lan saw Fu Yunyue appear with Tian Zhu, her eyes narrowed slightly.

He hadn't expected that Yu He of the Prison Oversight Bureau would make such a choice at this crucial moment.

It seems that keeping him in prison was the right thing to do; otherwise, he would probably have been defeated even faster if he had stayed there.

Jiang Lan now harbors even greater hatred for those who betrayed her.
