Fang Yun's mind was in utter turmoil. The Demon Sage's Edict itself was not frightening; what was frightening was that the Grass Barbarians, who required Jing Kingdom, Wu Kingdom, and half of Yue Kingdom to resist together, were attacking Jing Kingdom alone.

The sages of the Human Race and the demon barbarians had long had an agreement: on the Saint Origin Continent, Half-Sages could fight one another, but Half-Sages could not personally attack enemies below the Half-Sage level.

Once the various Grass Barbarian tribes went all out against Jing Kingdom, the other kingdoms would naturally send aid, but they absolutely could not commit everything they had. If they truly could not hold out, Jing Kingdom could only abandon part of its territory.

If Jing Kingdom's losses eventually became too severe and it stood on the verge of collapse, neighboring Qing Kingdom and Wu Kingdom would have the right to divide Jing Kingdom between them, then fight the Grass Barbarian tribes with all their strength.

By then, Jing Kingdom would become history.

Fang Yun had undergone the Moon Tree Divine Punishment and had already cast life and death aside. Yet when he thought of the entire Jing Kingdom vanishing just like that, of his relatives and friends and tens of millions of citizens dying amid the flames of war, his heart still trembled with panic.

Ao Huang flew to Fang Yun's side and asked softly, "When you say the first snow next year, do you mean after the New Year, or next winter?"

"Next winter. The Grass Barbarians have now lost two Barbarian Sages and tens of millions of elite barbarian soldiers. Their morale has suffered a massive blow, while the sages of the Demon Realm have also expended their strength by mobilizing the power of the Moon Tree Divine Punishment.
