Chapter 16. Shocking changes in the imperial capital (Part 1)
The Sunset Plain was now in a state of disarray, with corpses piled up in piles. The orcs had retreated, and everyone was cleaning up the battlefield sadly. Weeping and cursing could often be heard.
The casualties in this war were much different than previous estimates. Both the Orc Empire and the Aogu Empire suffered huge losses. The Aogu Empire only had less than 30,000 infantrymen left, and the War Tiger Army also lost more than half. On the contrary, the archers did not
What a loss. The most important thing is that the soul of the empire died heroically in the line of duty. Everyone in Qing Ancient City also deeply remembers this legendary marshal. Since the end of the war, Tianhu has been haunted all day long, sometimes crying, sometimes
Screaming loudly. After a few days, Tianhu could only lead the remaining soldiers back to the imperial capital with a sad mood.

A majestic statue, holding a huge scythe in both hands, exuding an aura of overlooking all living beings.
At this time, the second prince was standing there respectfully as if waiting for something. Then the hall was filled with strong dark elements, and a mysterious magic array suddenly appeared, with the figure of the Dark Elf Queen appearing in the array.
"Lord Messenger, what are you calling me for?" the second prince asked respectfully.
"Lihu has been destroyed, and most of the Zhanhu Legion has suffered casualties. We can proceed as planned." The Dark Elf Queen calmly replied.
"What? Li Hu is dead, haha... God is helping me." After a pause, the second prince continued happily: "Your Majesty, I will leave first, and I will take action immediately." After saying this, the second prince looked respectfully.
After bowing, he hurriedly ran out of the tunnel.
After the second prince left, the Dark Elf King immediately knelt down respectfully in front of the statue, and then a stronger dark aura appeared in the hall. The invisible pressure made the Dark Elf King break into cold sweat, and he could not even lift his head.
"How is the plan going? I hope that after ten years I can securely take over this continent, do you understand?" A majestic voice came from the statue.
"Don't worry, the little guy will definitely make the whole continent bloody, but... the Demon Empire must also cooperate with me." The Dark Elf Queen replied tremblingly.
"Well, very good, there is no problem with the Demon Empire. I hope you can weaken the power of the mainland as much as possible. My injury is not fully healed yet, and those old guys can still threaten me. You should handle these things well, me.
You can't leave the mountain just yet, but you will benefit from it then." The majestic voice sounded again.
"Don't worry, sir, I will definitely live up to your expectations." The Dark Elf King said respectfully. Then his majestic voice said "Yes" and then disappeared.

In the Zhanhu family, Leihu was cultivating his soul body, and at the same time he was feeling the various elements in the world. Suddenly he felt an inexplicable pain in his heart, and he stopped cultivating immediately.
Lei Hu slowly opened the door and walked out. The holy guards inside also said hello to Lei Hu. Lei Hu nodded in response. Then he walked to the stone bench in the courtyard and sat down, expressionless.
He looked at the sky and thought: "It's been more than a month. It's time for father to come back, right?"
…
The Royal Palace is where the king of the Aogu Empire lives. At this time, the old king is reviewing the documents submitted from various places, and there is a frail and bookish young man standing next to him.
"Jie'er, my father's health is getting worse and worse. He is not far away from his return, but you are the one I can't let go of the most." King Slien closed the document and said weakly.
"How could it be? My father is in very good health! The children have grown up, so I don't need to worry about my father." The eldest prince Si Jie replied with a smile, but in fact he was very sad inside.
Slien looked at the sensible eldest son in front of him with relief, sighed, and then said: "It would be great if Kerr was half as sensible as you. Although he has the potential to be a king, he has no heart of benevolence and righteousness. In recent years,
I also know that he is doing some tricks in the dark."
"Father, you are too worried. It is because your second brother is ignorant. Anyway, you have decided to pass the throne to your second brother, and I am also a person who yearns for freedom. Father, please tell your second brother earlier, and maybe it will be better for him.
Bar."
After hearing this, Slien was about to say something else when he suddenly heard a guard coming to the door and saying respectfully: "Your Majesty, General Hua Longtian, the commander of the Hualong Army, Lord French Saint Leo and the second prince are waiting for Your Majesty in the main hall."
Si Lien looked at Si Jie in confusion, then stood up and said, "Jie'er, follow your father to see what's going on with your second brother?" After saying that, Si Jie quickly helped Si Lien and walked slowly towards the main hall.

…
In the main hall, Hua Longtian, the leader of the Hualong Legion, French Saint Leo and the second prince Sk were waiting leisurely in the main hall.
"Your Highness, the Second Prince, if you ascend to the throne this time, the position of chief magician of the palace will belong to me." The Dharma Saint said calmly.
"Don't worry, Uncle Leo, I will give you what I promised you." Skok replied quickly. And from his tone, it could be seen that Skok seemed to have the victory in hand.
"Your Highness, the Second Prince, I believe you will not forget the promise you made to me." Hua Longtian on the side also interjected.
After hearing this, Si Ke cursed in his heart: What are you so proud about? If you weren't valuable to me, I would have killed you when I ascended the throne.
After thinking about it, Sk would not say it out loud, and then he respectfully replied: "Don't worry, Uncle Longtian, after I ascend the throne, I will replace your Hualong Army with your Zhanhu Army."
"Haha...Uncle, I am too worried. As long as our Hualong Legion can defeat those bullshit Tiger Legions, I will definitely serve for His Highness." Hualongtian also happily said to Sk.
