All Sides Make Their Moves! The Terrified Six Nations of Yingzhou.

Their Yue Kingdom has been established for over a thousand years.

But ordinary people living on the Yue Kingdom only felt awe towards some aspects of the Yue Kingdom.

Such a scene of people lining the streets to see each other off has never happened before.

The fact that Xingfeng Sect was so beloved by mortals gave Yue Yao a new understanding of the Xingfeng Sect.

Furthermore, Yue Yao discovered that Xingfeng Sect seemed to have never engaged in blood-feeding transactions.

Generally speaking, factions with cultivators will slaughter mortals and martial artists to supply their cultivators with resources for cultivation.

But since the establishment of the Xingfeng Sect, she has never heard of the Xingfeng Sect slaughtering mortals.

Perhaps this is why ordinary people living in the North so fervently support Xingfeng Sect.

Feeling the deafening shouts around her, Yue Yao felt a sense of pride.

This sense of pride was completely different from the pride she had felt as a princess of the Yue Kingdom.

As the Xingfeng Sect convoy departed the Northern Territory.

The news that the Great Yu Dynasty was going to destroy the six kingdoms of Yingzhou quickly spread throughout the entire Yingzhou.

The Great Yu, a powerful nation from the heart of Yingzhou, was invincible to the other six kingdoms of Yingzhou.

Many forces that received this news were filled with fear.

According to the rumors, the reason why the Great Yu sent troops to destroy the six kingdoms of Yingzhou was entirely because Xingfeng Sect killed the crown prince of the Great Yu.

This also caused many martial arts factions within the six kingdoms of Yingzhou to harbor resentment towards the Xingfeng Sect.

Why did they have to provoke such a behemoth as the Great Yu, causing these martial arts forces to suffer as well?

But no one dared to voice these complaints openly; they only discussed them in private.

Many martial arts factions are already planning to leave the Yingzhou Six Kingdoms region, as they have no courage to confront the Great Yu.

In a secret room within the Ningguo Imperial Palace, the Ningguo Emperor was secretly summoning his ministers for a meeting.

Ningguo is now under the jurisdiction of the Xingfeng Sect, although the Ningguo royal family still retains some power.

However, they are all under regulation.

Inside the Ningguo Imperial Palace, there were also martial artists from the Xingfeng Sect stationed there.

Therefore, the Emperor of Ningguo could only convene this meeting in secret.

Emperor Ningguo looked at his ministers and asked:

"My esteemed ministers, what are your thoughts on the Great Yu's recent military campaign?"

The ministers in the room began to whisper among themselves.

At this moment, a minister said:

"Your Majesty, the strength of the Yingzhou Kingdom Non-Self ability to withstand. Even the Xingfeng Sect cannot stop them. We should immediately evacuate the territory of the six kingdoms of Yingzhou, otherwise, once the army of the Great Yu arrives, we will only become food for the enemy!"

The minister's words resonated with many; the crisis was indeed enormous.

In the eyes of the colossal Great Yu, they were no different from ants.

Another minister then said:

"Your Majesty, I believe we can try surrendering. If we voluntarily submit to the Great Yu, we might be able to preserve the foundation of our royal family."

The minister who had spoken earlier immediately snorted coldly and said:

"What Lord Ding says is utterly absurd. Do you think the Great Yu Kingdom would accept our surrender if it were the same Xingfeng Sect as before? Besides, what right do we have to surrender? Although we are nominally in charge of Ningguo now, everything we do is under the supervision of the Xingfeng Sect."

"Once we assemble our troops to surrender, we'll probably be discovered by the Xingfeng Sect before we even set off. Don't forget, these past two days, Xingfeng Sect's flying artifacts have been circling over Ningguo!"

Upon hearing about flying treasures, the expressions of everyone present changed once again.

During this period, a flying treasure did indeed appear in the skies above Ningguo.

No one knows what this flying artifact is.

All the people knew was that this flying artifact carried a large machine and would stop every time it flew to a region of Ningguo.

With that flying artifact around, any unusual movement they make will be detected immediately.

The Emperor of Ningguo said in a deep voice:

"Surrender is not an option, escape is not an option, are we just supposed to wait to die?!"

Everyone in the room remained silent.

In truth, the ministers present still harbored deep fear of the Xingfeng Sect.

It's worth noting that the Xingfeng Sect once routed their 600,000-strong army.

If they escape or surrender, and are discovered by the Xingfeng Sect, death awaits them.

"Your Majesty, at this juncture, we can only wait for the outcome. The army of Dayu will undoubtedly arrive in the Yue Kingdom first. If Yue Kingdom falls, we can still evacuate. Let's see if Xingfeng Sect can hold out first," a minister suggested.

The Emperor of Ningguo nodded:

"Alright, let's do it this way. If Xingfeng Sect can't hold, then we'll retreat!"

Not only Ningguo, but the other six kingdoms of Yingzhou also held internal meetings to discuss solutions.

After receiving news that the Great Yu was preparing to send troops, the high-ranking officials of the three countries controlled by the Xingfeng Sect were already planning to flee.

The other countries that were not under control shared similar sentiments.

As for the martial arts forces within these countries, they have all begun packing their bags and preparing to leave the six kingdoms of Yingzhou.

For these martial arts forces, leaving the six kingdoms of Yingzhou is their only way out.

Their value is not even worth considering by a behemoth like the Great Yu; remaining in the six kingdoms of Yingzhou would only mean certain death.

The only ones among the six kingdoms who did not intend to flee were the ordinary people within their borders.

Because even if they tried to escape, they couldn't.

Humans move very slowly, and besides, they simply cannot survive outside their homes.

The six kingdoms of Yingzhou are surrounded by barren lands. Once they leave, they will either be eaten by wild beasts or captured by people from other countries.

At this moment, many ordinary people within the six kingdoms are placing their hopes on the Xingfeng Sect.

They all hope that Xingfeng Sect can win this time.

Only if Xingfeng Sect wins will these ordinary people have a chance to survive.

In the mountains behind the Yue Kingdom.

The Third Prince, along with high-ranking members of the Yue Kingdom's royal family, were waiting for Yue Qianshan to emerge from seclusion in the back mountains.

He has been in seclusion ever since Yue Qianshan received the pills from Lin Xuantian.

At this moment, the Third Prince and other high-ranking members of the Yue Kingdom's royal family all wore expressions of anxiety.

They had all received news that the Great Yingzhou.

This terrified the Third Prince.

Their Yue Kingdom was the closest to Dayu, so whenever Dayu's army arrived, their Yue Kingdom would be the first stop.

Yue Qianshan emerged from the cave abode, his face beaming with smiles.

After such a long period of seclusion, he has broken through to the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining.

Seeing the anxious expressions on the faces of the Third Prince and the others, Yue Qianshan frowned. "What is it now?"

Yue Qianshan now feels some disgust towards the Third Prince.

My grandson's visits to me are almost always for no good reason.

The Third Prince was unaware that Yue Qianshan had already rejected him, and he said in a panic:

"Ancestor, we have just received news that the Great Yu has dispatched troops to annihilate the six kingdoms of Yingzhou. This time, they have sent four Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators."

The third prince quickly recounted the events.

This information was leaked from the Xingfeng Sect, and even if Xingfeng Sect wanted to hide it, they couldn't.

Inner sect martial artists can maintain complete secrecy, but it's different for outer sect martial artists. With a mixed group of people, there will always be some who leak information.

But Liu Qian didn't care at all about the leak.

Because he didn't expect the six kingdoms of Yingzhou to join forces with the Xingfeng Sect to fight against Dayu.

Upon hearing the Third Prince's words, Yue Qianshan's good mood from his recent breakthrough vanished instantly, and his face turned pale.

Four Foundation Establishment cultivators and dozens of Qi Refining cultivators!

This lineup can only be described as terrifying.

Although Yue Qianshan had guessed beforehand that Lin Xuantian's death in the six kingdoms of Yingzhou would not be easily forgiven by the Great Yu Dynasty.

But he didn't expect that the Great Yu would prepare to directly crush the six kingdoms of Yingzhou.

"What is Xingfeng Sect doing? How are they planning to respond?" Yue Qianshan asked urgently.

The Third Prince replied, "I heard that Xingfeng Sect has already dispatched about a thousand men to defend against the enemy, and they have already set off."

Where is Chen Beijing?

"No, Chen Beijin is still Xingfeng Sect; he did not go there."

Yue Qianshan frowned deeply. Sending a thousand men to fight against the army of Dayu was practically suicide.

Yue Qianshan began pacing back and forth, caught in a dilemma.

Once the Yu army arrives, destruction awaits the Yue Kingdom.

"Did you deliver the intelligence I asked you to send to Da Yu last time?" Yue Qianshan asked the Third Prince.

The Third Prince nodded. "Ancestor, I've already given the Great Yu the information about the Xingfeng Sect."

"Very good, that proves there's still some goodwill involved. Immediately gather all the troops in the country and join forces with the army of Dayu. Tell them that our Yue Kingdom is willing to surrender to Dayu!"

Yue Qianshan gave the instructions.

At this point, Yue Qianshan had no choice but to surrender.

He didn't believe that Xingfeng Sect could stop the army of Dayu.

Four Foundation Establishment cultivators—even if the Xingfeng Sect had immense abilities, they wouldn't be able to defeat them this time.

In situations like this, surrendering early might offer a glimmer of hope.

Upon hearing this, the Third Prince asked in surprise, "Ancestor, shall I take some men with me? What about you?"

The Third Prince was very worried. He was no different from an ant in front of the Great Yu. It would be a lie to say he wasn't panicked if he led his men to face the Great Yu army.

Yue Qianshan smiled slightly and said:

"Don't worry, I'll follow you secretly. Besides, we helped the Great Yu before, so we have a favor to owe them. They'll accept our surrender. Let's get going."

Seeing the sinister smile on Yue Qianshan's face, the Third Prince immediately dared not speak again and hurriedly led his men away.

Watching the Third Prince's departing figure, Yue Qianshan fell into deep thought.

The reason he sent the Third Prince with the people of the Yue Kingdom was to express Yue Kingdom's sincerity.

But he was also afraid that the Great Yu didn't take their Yue Kingdom seriously.

If the Great Yu Kingdom looks down on the people of the Yue Kingdom, then going there would be suicide.

Therefore, the only option is to send the Third Prince to test the waters.

If the Great Yu truly intended to annihilate all the people of the six kingdoms of Yingzhou, then he would have no choice but to flee and abandon everything in the Yue Kingdom.

Seven days later.

On a dirt road, Xingfeng Sect's convoy stopped.

A bonfire was lit on the dirt road.

The martial artists of the Xingfeng Sect sat around the campfire eating their dry rations.

After seven days of travel, Xingfeng Sect's convoy was still 1,000 kilometers away from the outpost.

Wang Hu originally estimated that they would arrive within seven days.

However, the road from the Xingfeng Sect to the outpost was not smooth, and the vehicle's speed was reduced considerably.

Based on this route, it will probably take them about five more days to arrive.

Fortunately, we had plenty of gasoline and diesel this time, so we weren't worried about not being able to reach our destination.

After seven consecutive days of travel, everyone was quite tired.

Wang Hu also asked everyone to get out of the car to rest and have something to eat.

Wang Hu was sitting by the campfire, roasting the thigh of a wild animal.

Wu Xing then approached Wang Hu and took out a wine flask from his person, handing it to Wang Hu:

"Elder, let's have a drink!"

Upon seeing the wine pot, Wang Hu immediately glared at Wu Xing:

"You forgot the sect leader's instructions: you can't drink and drive!"

Hearing this, Wu Xing scratched his head and said, "We're not driving, let someone else drive."

"No, no one is allowed to drink alcohol. Anyone who dares to drink will be fined three months' salary and sent to work in Xingfeng City for a month."

Upon hearing Wang Hu's words, some martial artists who had originally planned to drink immediately hid their wine jugs.

Losing their salary is one thing, but having to work in Xingfeng City for a month is something many inner sect martial artists wouldn't want to do.

This is equivalent to preventing them from touching a gun for a month, which is worse than killing them.

Wang Hu then took out a map from his person and examined it. He asked a martial artist next to him who was in charge of communications:

Where are those people from the Great Yu Kingdom now?

The warrior in charge of communications, munching on his dry rations, replied:

"According to the information coming from inside, those people should be three thousand kilometers away from the Great Yu, and they are not as fast as us."

Upon hearing this, Wang Hu estimated the other party's speed.

By the time they reach the outpost, the people from Dayu will probably not have even reached the territory of the six kingdoms of Yingzhou; they will have only traveled halfway at most.

The advantage of the Xingfeng Sect is that they are used in cars, and cars travel at high speeds.

Although the Great Yu Kingdom has unicorns and other mounts for transportation, they are still far inferior to cars.

"We'll set off tonight after dinner, taking turns driving!" Wang Hu announced.

Although the Great Yu army may move slowly, it's hard to guarantee that the Great Yu cultivators will be much faster.

Cultivators all possess magical Law Artifact that allow them to fly.

At this moment, the walkie-talkie of the martial artist in charge of communications nearby rang. After listening for a while, he said:

"Elder, news has come from inside that the Yue Kingdom is gathering its army. Steward Liu suspects that the Yue Kingdom is preparing to surrender, and warns us to be careful."

Upon hearing this, everyone sitting around the campfire turned their gaze to Yue Yao, who was sitting in a corner not far away.

The princess of the Yue Kingdom is currently with them.

Yue Yao's expression didn't change upon hearing the news. She looked at everyone and said:

"I have long since severed all ties with the Yue Kingdom."

Yue Yao no longer had any feelings for the Yue Kingdom.

As for the Yue Kingdom's preparation to surrender, Yue Yao believed it was tantamount to courting death.

She had witnessed the strength of the Xingfeng Sect.

Yue Kingdom intends to surrender to the Great Yu Kingdom at this time, the Xingfeng Sect will certainly not let the Yue Kingdom off the hook.

Wang Hu then stood up and addressed the crowd:

"You've rested enough, let's get going!"

Wang Hu took the roasted wild animal leg and returned to the car.

The other Xingfeng Sect warriors also immediately walked towards the vehicle, extinguishing the campfires on the ground one by one.

The roar of engines filled the quiet night as the convoy continued its journey toward the outpost.
