Zhongli Wu and Long Zhanye, who had been waiting at the front line for several days, were pacing back and forth, anxious and restless.
Their eyes kept casting in the direction of the Sun Moon Empire in the distance, and the order to launch the final war against Shrek has not yet arrived.
Long Zhanye and Zhongli Wu have already deployed their troops and are impatient.
They don't understand why Sun Moon Royal Family is still hesitating at this once-in-a-lifetime moment.
What are they hesitating about?
Didn't they see that Xuan Zi was in danger and Shrek the strong man had lost more than half?
Two more days passed.
A message finally came from Ming Capital, Sun Moon Emperor Xu Tianran issued an order.
The two Soul Engineer groups to which Holy Spirit Cult belongs and Long Zhanye are required to immediately return to the DPRK.
This scene was like a silent thunder, exploding in the camp of Zhongli Wu and Long Zhanye, instantly arousing waves of dissatisfaction and suspicion.
The two of them felt the abnormal atmosphere at the same time. Seeing that Shrek was defeated in one attack, why did they suddenly withdraw all their troops at the last moment?
Long Zhanye's eyes darkened slightly, and he exerted pressure on the taxi soldier who came to deliver the message.
Under the pressure as heavy as a mountain, the soldier quickly revealed everything he knew like beans poured out of a bamboo tube:
"The Empress and the God of War... have woken up. She said she would hold a celebration banquet and invite all the soldiers to drink wine together to strengthen their morale."
These words were like an explanation forced into their hands, but they still could not calm the doubts and dissatisfaction in the hearts of Long Zhanye and Zhongli Wu.
Before the final victory was achieved, the champagne was opened at halftime - this was not the style of the empress, queen, and god of war who was known for his calmness and strategy.
In their eyes, the Empress and God of War Ju Zi, despite his own weak strength, is like an ant that can be easily crushed on the frontal battlefield.
But her military ability is as precise and sharp as a real commander.
She should know better than anyone else that now is the best time to destroy Shrek, as fleeting as the tide rising to its highest point.
Withdrawing troops now, if Shrek is given another chance to breathe, it will be even more difficult to completely destroy it next time.
But it's not yet time for the two of them to fall out with the Sun Moon Empire.
They were like two chess pieces that were temporarily suppressed on a chessboard. Although they were dissatisfied and alert, they still followed Sun Moon Empire's arrangements.
Long Zhanye was silent for a moment, and then gave the order--
Evacuate all the two Soul Engineer regiments Evil Monarch and Imperial Dragon stationed in the Dou Ling Empire to the Sun Moon Empire Ming Capital.
When all frontline soldiers and the two major Soul Engineer regiments withdrew Ming Capital.
Ming Capital There are lights and festoons everywhere, just like a festival, covered with bright red satin and golden lanterns.
The blazing red color was like a silent welcome flag flying in the night wind, as if celebrating the triumphant return of the generals.
Facing this scene, which was like a grand celebration, Zhongli Wu and Long Zhanye relaxed their guard a little in the festive atmosphere.
Their eyes swept over the cheering people in the streets and alleys...
The undercurrent of uneasiness in the hearts of those taxi soldiers who were toasting to celebrate under the eaves covered with colorful silks was temporarily suppressed at that moment.
When everyone arrived, the royal family first arranged for all the soldiers to go down to rest.
Long Zhanye didn't have any doubts, so they rested quietly for a night in the hotel specially prepared for them in Ming Capital.
On the second day, the celebration banquet was held as scheduled.
The palace-like banquet hall was brightly lit, and the golden candlelight was like a sea of burning stars, illuminating the entire hall like daylight.
The long banquet was like an extending river, extending from the center of the hall to the end.
The long table on which countless delicacies were placed was filled with jade plates as clear as emeralds and wine glasses as clear as glass.
Sun Moon Emperor 'Xu Tianran' sat on the main seat. He stood up slowly, his eyes swept across the audience, and his voice reverberated like a bell:
"My greatest soldiers, now the three Empire have surrendered to Sun Moon. I am here to drink this cup with all the soldiers!!"
He raised the wine glass in his hand high. The wine, as clear as amber, reflected the luster like liquid gold under the golden candlelight.
Then he drank it all in one gulp, like a commander drinking with his soldiers, bold and majestic.
The tens of thousands of soldiers in the audience raised their wine glasses one after another, and the sound like a mountain roaring and a tsunami converged into a thundering cheer and shout, and then they all drank it down.
At this moment, the empress and war god 'Ju Zi', who was still in the rest period, was slowly pushed out in a wheelchair by a member of the royal family.
Although her face still looked pale and sick, as if it had not completely faded away, there was a kind of calmness in her eyes.
She also very boldly praised all the soldiers present for their contribution to the war. Although her voice was hoarse and weak due to injuries, it was still powerful.
Then she picked up her exquisite wine glass and looked at Long Zhanye, who was in the chief position among the three armies, like a hidden sharp blade.
At this moment, Long Zhanye's position above and below Sun Moon Empire has reached a height as high as the top of a mountain.
Among all the leaders of the Soul Engineer regiment, his position is already at the top of the list, and he is placed at the top of all weapons like a blade that is recognized as the sharpest.
Afterwards, Ju Zi acted like a commander reviewing his generals one by one.
One by one, toast to the leaders and deputy leaders of the major Soul Engineer groups, as well as all the strong Holy Spirit Cult members.
Although her steps were frivolous, the wine glass in her hand was held firmly without any trembling.
Until it's Long Zhanye's turn.
She slowly stopped in front of that seat and raised her wine glass slightly.
The voice was clear and clear, with a kind of sincerity and respect that seemed to have been carefully modified:
"Whether it is Heavenly Soul Empire, Douling Empire, or Star Luo Empire, among the three Empire, Captain Long's achievements are unparalleled."
"I would like to offer a special toast to Commander Long!!"
Then, she stood up with a kind of respect and determination that could not be rejected, holding on to her still-unrecovered body.
Long Zhanye felt a slight movement in his heart when he saw this.
After all, it was the emperor and the empress who responded to him with such respectful courtesy. As a minister, he must return the favor with a glass of courtesy as a monarch and his ministers.
At this moment, a royal maid came over carrying a pot of royal wine.
The fine wine poured onto Long Zhanye's wine glass like a silent flowing silver thread.
Long Zhanye picked up the glass filled with fine wine and drank it down in one gulp, as boldly and calmly as a general receiving respect.
He put down his wine glass and said in a calm and sincere voice, "This sneak attack on the Dou Ling Empire was all due to the extraordinary wisdom of the Empress and the God of War."
And Ju Zi's eyes were fixed on Long Zhanye, who drank the glass of wine that she had tampered with without leaving any drop.
A burst of joy and satisfaction seemed to surge up in her heart, like a poisonous snake spitting out a message, but her face still maintained a gentle and dignified smile like the spring breeze.
Her voice became clearer and clearer. "Captain Long, thank you very much. It is the pride of our Sun and Moon Empire that Mr. Kong has a disciple like you."
Everyone gathered here happily, and all the worries and pains were burned away like paper thrown into the fire.
At this moment, there is only the sound of laughter and cups interlacing like the purest enjoyment.
This scene is also a grand scene that Ming Capital has not seen in decades--
All the troops gathered together, the king and his ministers rejoiced together, it was like a slowly unfolding picture of a prosperous age unfolding in front of everyone's eyes.
A few hours later, it was late at night.
When this mirage-like banquet finally came to an end.
Long Zhanye returned to the hotel and was about to meditate cross-legged and adjust his condition as usual.
However, the moment he just closed his eyes, he suddenly noticed that something strange seemed to have appeared in his body that he had never experienced before.
He felt that the Soul Power in his body was surging in a chaotic state like a stirred pool water.
His internal organs felt as if they had been thrown into a hot furnace, and there were bursts of stinging and burning sensations as if they were being burned by fire.
His brows suddenly knitted together, then he sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes and entered a state of inward looking.
His Double Pupil slowly swept through every inch of the meridians and every organ in the body...
When he finally saw the raging source clearly, his pupils suddenly contracted.
In his intestines and stomach, there was a poison like solidified black ink, spreading to his body at an extremely fast speed.
Long Zhanye's complexion became as cold and solemn as stone at that moment.
A deep roar came from his throat, "Poison! Poison!"
"--The wine is poisonous!!"
