"Old Prime Minister, you can go out of the city and tell Ning Tiance... If he retreats and returns to the court, I can forget about today's incident. Even... the position of commander-in-chief of the Zhou Dynasty's troops will still belong to him."
Emperor Zhou sighed softly, his tone slightly cold.
Now he still needs time to wait for help from Da Qin and Da Qi.
Although this kind of behavior is no different from luring a wolf into a house, at most it will just cede territory and divide the city afterwards.
What's more... that person is now at the critical juncture of breakthrough.
As long as he can take that step...
Haha, Ning Tiance or something like that can be killed with just a wave of his hand!
"Yes! Emperor!"
A joyful look appeared on Wang Taifu's face. Although Zhou Huang's words sounded tough, he was actually resigned.
Ning Tiance should be satisfied if he can make the majestic Zhou Emperor give in.
"Let's go, come with me to see...that traitor."
Emperor Zhou snorted coldly and walked out of the palace first.
Behind him, Wang Taifu, Chu Dahai, and other officials followed closely.
Under Yunfang City.
Ling Xiao takes the lead and stands in front of all the troops.
Ning Tiance, Qiao Yunli and other powerful God Emperors were one step behind, showing respect.
At this time, a sky-reaching golden formation shrouded the sky above Nayun City.
On it, the Dao patterns light up and disappear, the divine pictures appear, the mountains and swamps, and the ancient trees and green palaces spread out like a painting. It is obviously not comparable to the one in Shuangshan City.
Ling Xiao didn't do much research on formations.
But according to what Ning Tiance said, this array is an important treasure inherited by the Zhou family and is the evolution of the Mountain and Sea Emperor Diagram. This diagram is a top-grade Taoist artifact.
It took hundreds of years of dragon veins to warm the Yang, and then it gained such power.
Just now, Ling Xiao had ordered Huahua to break the formation. Sure enough, this time, the bitch failed to swallow it in one gulp and even had a mouth full of blood.
After all, nowadays, Huahua's level is only that of a divine general. Even though he has terrifying blood and extraordinary talents, he is still too weak after all.
On the tower in the distance, several figures suddenly appeared.
The leader is wearing a dragon robe, a golden crown on his head, and a majestic appearance. He is none other than the Emperor of Zhou, Zhou Qingcang.
Beside him, there were four god emperors and several powerful god kings standing, looking solemnly at the millions of soldiers and horses standing quietly under the city.
"Brother Xiao, that is the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Zhou Qingcang."
Ning Tiance walked to Ling Xiao and reminded him in a low voice.
"Fifth-grade God Emperor?"
Ling Xiao nodded and smiled, he didn't take this mere fifth-grade God Emperor seriously.
He was just curious about what state the mysterious strong man Chu Dahai talked about was in.
"Brother, are these the God-Emperors the only ones in the Zhou Dynasty?"
"On the surface, these are the only people. However, it is rumored that there is an ancestor of the Zhou family who sits in the Great Zhou Palace and has been locked up in life and death for many years, so no one has ever seen him, but...some people do feel a very strong aura, and every day
It will wake up every few decades."
Ning Tiance's face was calm, and he didn't show the slightest panic.
"oh?"
Ling Xiao nodded and smiled. Emperor Zhou had a trump card, so why didn't he?
But at this moment, on Yunfang City in the distance, a figure suddenly walked out of the golden formation and walked slowly towards the two of them.
He was an old man who looked old and full of twilight.
With his head full of silver strands meticulously combed behind his head, and his neat blue official uniform, he looked like a loyal and upright man.
Moreover, his aura has reached the third-grade emperor realm!
"If the old prime minister takes action personally, this chaos will be put to rest."
"Yes, after all, the old prime minister still has some kindness towards Ning Tiance. I heard that when Ning Tiance committed a capital crime, the old prime minister also spoke uprightly, saying that he was loyal, gentle and had the demeanor of a general."
"Haha, the old prime minister has been honest throughout his life and is the benchmark in the hearts of countless disciples and monks in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Ning Tiance will not be so ignorant of good and evil."
Above the city wall, the ministers nodded and chuckled, and the original panic on their faces dissipated a lot.
Hearing this, Emperor Zhou's expression remained unchanged, but there was a gloomy look in his eyes.
Humph, Ning Tiance, do you think I will really let you go?
As long as you relinquish military power, I have a hundred thousand ways to kill you.
At this time, Emperor Zhou had made up his mind, no matter how many people opposed it this time.
As long as this chaos is calmed down, he will definitely kill Ning Tiance.
"Um?"
Looking at the old man falling from the sky, Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly, but the corner of his mouth raised a hint of amusement.
At this time, Ning Tiance also had an inexplicable look of struggle on his face.
Then, under the horrified eyes of countless people, he bowed and worshiped Wang Taifu.
Wang Taifu, the old prime minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty, was loyal and upright throughout his life and cared about the common people.
Such people deserve respect no matter where they are.
"Look! Ning Tiance is saluting the old prime minister!!"
"This can be done!"
Smiles suddenly appeared on the faces of the ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but before they could finish their words, they were stunned to see the old prime minister's body suddenly bent down.
There is even an extra... black long knife on the back?!
The whole world was momentarily silent.
Everyone looked at the young man in white who was holding a black blade and stabbed Wang Taifu into a transparent body, with a strong sense of shock and fear in their eyes.
Damn it?
ruthless?
So cruel?
This young man doesn’t act according to common sense!!
When two dynasties are at war, the envoys will not be killed. This is an eternal law.
Otherwise, how could a mere seventeen-year-old boy easily kill the third-rank God Emperor Quan Xiang of Zhou?
"Xiao…Brother Xiao?"
Ning Tiance stood up and looked at Wang Taifu, whose mouth was bleeding and lifeless. His eyes were also full of horror and... incredible.
"Brother, what's wrong with you?"
Ling Xiao looked confused, a spiritual light bloomed in his hand, and he knocked Taifu Wang to the ground with one palm.
The enemy God-Emperor took the initiative to die. If he didn't kill him, wouldn't it be an apology for his hard work?
I am a villain, you expect me to listen to you talk about morality and ideals?
Please, everyone's time is precious, what do loyal and traitorous ministers have to do with me?
Anyone who stands in my way will be killed.
"Brother Xiao...the two armies are facing each other, so don't kill them..."
Ning Tiance swallowed and stopped talking.
Although, he knew that Ling Xiao's move was just to capture Yunfang City as soon as possible, realize his ambition, and save the people of Western Xinjiang from the fire and water.
But...I always feel like something is not quite right.
"He is here as an envoy? Who said he is here as an envoy? I only saw murderous intent in his eyes, and he is the enemy of the God Emperor, so I thought he had evil intentions."
I...Gan!
Wang Taifu, who was curled up on the ground with his breath gone, spurted out a mouthful of blood, rolled his eyes, and instantly died on the spot.
I, he... haven't spoken yet, and you're going to kill me?
Do I have a chance to identify myself?
I looked at you twice. Is this why you killed me?
Gan!
Pity this great Zhou Guozhu, a powerful man of the third rank of God Emperor, he never thought until his death that his magnificent life would... come to an end so suddenly.
"this…"
Ning Tiance frowned and thought for a moment, and finally felt that... what Ling Xiao said seemed to make some sense.
When the old prime minister came here just now, he must have wanted to persuade him to surrender.
After all, Ling Xiao and others were from Daxia, so it was understandable that the old prime minister looked at him with murderous intent in his eyes.
It's just that... I'm afraid the old prime minister never imagined that this war was planned by Ling Xiao.
He, the God of War in the North, is at best a sharp knife in his hand.
Old prime minister!!
You have mistaken your identity!!
"this…"
On the city wall, Emperor Zhou and his ministers looked at the old man who was lying on the ground and seemed to be cold. The expressions on his face were completely dull.
Especially Emperor Zhou, there was a hint of ferocity in his eyes.
Gan!!
I tell you not to go, don't go, Dazhou is already weak, and now it has lost a third-grade God Emperor.
Old man, I think you sincerely want to destroy me in the Great Zhou Dynasty!!
"How can this be good!!"
"The old prime minister is dead. It seems that Ning Tiance is determined to rebel!!"
"Emperor!!!!"
"How about... let's vote..."
All the ministers wailed and looked sad.
At this moment, the sound of rapid breaking wind suddenly came from the sky in the distance.
