Why Do You Care So Much About the Allied Army's Casualties? They'll Distort My Sacrifices!
The spineless Heaven Soul Emperor had chosen to surrender.
Star Luo Empress Xu Jiujiu had become a puppet.
As a result, the allied army was now far weaker than before.
If Xuan Zi wanted to borrow a group of people, he naturally could not go to Shrek Academy. He could only come to Dou Ling Emperor Xue Linghao.
Since the allied army's crushing defeat and the fall of Star Luo, the remaining defeated troops, along with those hostile to the Sun Moon Empire, had basically all poured into the Dou Ling Empire.
After a brief period of rest and reorganization, the allied army's situation had stabilized somewhat.
As long as the allied army remained, it could continuously rally those determined to overthrow the Sun Moon Empire to join them.
"Elder Xuan, it isn't that I deliberately kept you waiting. The pressure brought by the Sun Moon Army has simply been too great. These past few days, their matters have left me overwhelmed and busy to death, which is why I temporarily put off meeting with you!"
Dou Ling Emperor Xue Linghao wore a sorrowful expression as he offered his helpless explanation.
There was truth and falsehood in those words. Although the Sun Moon Army had indeed kept him extremely busy, he was not so busy that he had no time to meet Xuan Zi for three consecutive days.
His reason for doing so was simple: he wanted those receiving Xuan Zi to subtly probe for the purpose of his visit.
Meanwhile, he and his ministers could discuss how to deal with this jinx, Xuan Zi, based on what they learned of his intentions.
The man's awful schemes and command had inflicted enormous losses upon both the allied army and the Dou Ling Empire, worsening the situation to its current state.
