Gu Changping cupped his hands at Ye Chen with a smile on his face.
Ye Chen put his hands behind his back, just nodded to him, and then turned to the man in the army.
The man raised one hand and performed a very standard military salute.
"Minister of ANBU, Luo Zhanyuan, has met the guardian of the country!"
As the head of the ANBU, according to his rank, he is at least on par with a first-class general, but the reason why he salutes Ye Chen is because Ye Chen is the owner of the Guardian Medal.
If you hold the Guardian Medal in your hand, you are the guardian of the country. Any high-ranking official or person in a high position must be treated with sincerity and respect.
Ye Chen lowered his head slightly as a return gesture. He looked at the ANBU master and became a little more interested.
"I wonder what the two ministers and deputy ministers of ANBU came to see me about?"
He was not surprised why the two of them were able to find him. This huge capital city, or rather this huge China, was under the supervision of the ANBU intelligence department, and almost all small and large disturbances could not be concealed.
What's more, when he returned to the capital, he taught Murong Duan a lesson and acted in a high-profile manner. Of course, the ANBU received the news.
Luo Zhanyuan put his hands away and stood up, his brows becoming a little more solemn.
"General Ye, I came to see you this time to tell you something important!"
Ye Chen's eyes were calm and he said calmly: "I'm all ears!"
Three powerful men in this world stood on the top of Yanshan Mountain. The clouds and mist were changing, but the many tourists below were unaware of it.
Luo Zhanyuan stared at Ye Chen and said in a deep voice: "General Ye is now so powerful that he dominates the world. He alone dominates the world's combat power list. His strength must have reached the peak of the extraordinary realm!"
"You must be no longer unfamiliar with the term king level!"
Luo Zhanyuan's eyes fluctuated as he continued: "The king class once ruled the world. Even if it was as powerful as the Yingting Empire, it was only with the push from the king class that it could dominate the world and push the world into the Age of Discovery!"
"The strength of the king level is even greater than that of the extraordinary realm, and its lifespan exceeds that of the extraordinary realm, reaching two hundred years away. However, in the past hundred years, there has been no news of the king level, and there is no king level walking around in the world. Will General Ye
Do you know the reason?"
Ye Chen simply shook his head. He really didn't understand anything about this matter.
Luo Zhanyuan took a step forward and stood with Ye Chen on the edge of the lonely peak, his voice more solemn than ever.
"All this is because of a huge war that swept across the world a hundred years ago, a war about the most powerful warriors, warlocks, and superpowers in the world!"
"There are no historical records or detailed descriptions of this war. The clues can only be found in the most confidential institutional documents of the major countries!"
"That battle is called... a battle of kings!"
"King-level battle?"
Ye Chen's eyes narrowed slightly.
Even though he had read many ancient books, he had never seen any clue about this war, not even the slightest description.
The two words "king level" already represent the pinnacle of human power in this world, which is even older and more legendary than the extraordinary level.
And this huge war a hundred years ago was named after the king, and Ye Chen had already vaguely thought of something.
Luo Zhanyuan's expression paused slightly, and his eyes became more serious.
"This battle affects the entire world. As long as there are warriors in any corner or corner, no one will be spared!"
"Few people know about the beginning of this war, and I don't know much about it either. I only know that the real leaders of this battle were the king-level beings in the world at that time!"
"In that battle, king-level masters came out in full force. The king-level masters from each country were divided into one camp and fought a war that lasted for nearly a year. World-level underground forces, including the Arbitration Institute, the Holy See, etc., all
Move out one after another!"
He paused and continued: "In that battle, all the king-level masters came out. Almost 99% of the king-level masters in the world participated in an indiscriminate battle. This battle was extremely brutal. The strongest men in the world had
Sixty percent of them perished!”
"It is said that there were at least nearly a hundred king-level masters at that time, but after the war, dozens of king-level masters died and became the dust of history!"
"In that great battle, the Western kings defeated the Eastern kings with a weak advantage. From then on, the imperialist powers began their path of aggression. The East was almost in a state of collapse!"
"The world only knows that the Opium War for more than a hundred years started the history of China being reduced to a colony, but they don't know that the defeat of the Eastern King in the Battle of Kings is the real reason!"
Ye Chen's eyes flashed slightly. More than a hundred years ago, it was the period when the Qing Dynasty was in real decline, and it was also the most humiliating period for China.
But he really didn't know that there was such a secret in it.
Gu Changping didn't say a word, and kept standing quietly to one side, listening to Luo Zhanyuan's story.
Although he and Luo Zhanyuan are both high-ranking members of the ANBU, serving as chief and deputy ministers, the difference in authority and level between them is a huge difference. Luo Zhanyuan has access to far more intelligence and confidential documents than he does.
.
He had only heard a little bit about this king-level battle. This was the first time he heard Luo Zhanyuan mention a lot of the news.
Luo Zhanyuan's eyes disappeared, as if he was imagining the shocking scene of that battle.
"After that battle, the eastern land fell into ruin and was invaded by Western powers. Although the kings of the east and west were victorious, it was actually a tragic victory. The Holy See, which was originally in full swing, lost all its peak combat power in that battle.
The king class was almost completely wiped out. In the next ten years, the arbitration found the right opportunity and crushed them in one fell swoop!"
"The Holy See's rule over the West has also been declared to have collapsed, replaced by arbitration, and has become the overlord of the world's underground forces!"
Ye Chen stared at the clouds without expressing his opinion. He was also greatly moved by this so-called king-level battle.
In the extraordinary realm, one is already otherworldly, different from ordinary people, possesses astonishing power, can intimidate a small country, command a country, and sit in command of a region.
The battle between extraordinary warriors is now the hottest topic in the world of martial arts and the most eye-catching.
But more than a hundred years ago, there were hundreds of king-level beings who transcended the extraordinary realm, calling the wind and rain, galloping across the world, and engaging in an earth-shattering battle. Just thinking about that scene makes my blood boil.
The power possessed by king-level masters is indescribable. Even Ye Chen cannot get a glimpse of the whole picture. If more than a hundred king-level masters start a full-scale war, the entire world will become a battlefield, and everything in its path will be like a typhoon.
Passing through, destroying everything.
This can be said to be the most massive disaster in human history!
After a long time, he finally spoke.
"Is it because of this battle that the king-level masters suffered too much damage, so the king-level masters disappeared, and no king-level masters walked around the world for nearly a hundred years?"
He asked in a questioning tone, the king-level battle more than a hundred years ago was indeed tragic, but it would not lead to the death of all king-level masters.
Since the king-level master still exists in the world, his every move will definitely affect the world, so why is there no news at all?
"Yes and no!"
Luo Zhanyuan said in a deep voice: "The power of the king level is too terrifying. That battle affected all parts of the world. Countries in the world have been reduced to ruins and scorched earth because of the battle of the king level!"
"In that battle, no fewer than millions of people were displaced, and the death toll was immeasurable. It was truly a loss of life. Both the East and the West suffered huge losses!"
"The remaining king-level masters in the East and the West at that time were all aware of this extremely serious consequence, and knew full well what horrific damage a king-level war would bring to the world!"
"So all the king-level masters at that time gathered in the Qilian Mountains at the junction of the East and the West and jointly made a convention to restrict the behavior of king-level masters in the world. In the convention, it was strictly forbidden for king-level masters to do anything in the world.
