On the border of the Huang Divine Dynasty and the Savior Coalition, Huang Min was having a meeting with the few capable generals left. He had an ugly look on his face, while the other people in the room had their heads down while trembling.
In the entire room, only one person did not have his head down, instead he looked directly in Huang Min"s eyes and said without an a hint of fear:
"Your majesty, we have lost too much of our people. We cannot continue to sacrifice so many of our people."
"Are you the Monarch of this dynasty or am I?" responded Huang Min with a face full of killing intent in his eyes.
"Of course it is your majesty who rules this land. However, I stand by my decision. If things keep going on like this, it is only a matter of time before our territory becomes unstable, resulting in countless rebellions all over."
"It doesn"t matter," replied Huang Min with ruthless eyes. "As long as I conquer the territory of the Savior Coalition as soon as possible. So, go execute my orders and recruit more people into the army."
The minister who previously spoke sighed after hearing this, then bowed before saying, "In that case your majesty, I refuse to listen to this order."
After hearing this, Huang Min instantly appeared in front of this minister and held him in the air by the throat.
"What did you say?"
"I-I-I-I"m sorry your majesty, but I refused to let the blood of countless ordinary people be stained in my hands."
"Do you want to die? Do you want all 9 generations of your family to follow you into Samsara?"
"If the king wants the minister to die, then the minister has to die," replied the suffocating minister. However, despite Huang Min"s threat. He had both a calm look in his face and a strong determination.
However, his look greatly angered Huang Min as it reminded him of people who defied him, people who dare to disregard his n.o.ble and divine bloodline.
So, with a burst of anger, he used all of his origin qi to directly pinched this minister"s head like an exploding balloon. As a result, blood and brain matter scattered everywhere in the meeting room.
All the other officials looked at their clothes drenched in the blood of their comrade, and a look of fear appeared in their eyes. The realization that the same fate could happen to them and their families at any given moment brought extreme dread to all of them in the room. So, they lowered their heads even more.
Meanwhile, Huang Min could feel the intense fear emanating from his officials. He licked his lips with intense pleasure as he enjoyed placing the fear of G.o.d to these natives, making them realize that compared to them, he was truly a G.o.d that can determine life and death.
He looked down at them before saying, "Any of you still want to disobey this Emperor"s order?"
No one answered him as the room instantly became quiet. Even the sound of breathing could not be heard. So, Huang Min nodded in satisfaction.
Afterwards, an official went to execute his order Countless common people were forcibly recruited into the army, then separated from their loved one and sent to the war in the frontier.
Using countless lives as sacrifice, the Huang Divine Dynasty"s border continued to grow rapidly.
Meanwhile, Huang Min was overseeing the entire war at the borders. The reason that he was in such a hurry was because he had an intuition that something would happen to him.
He figured out that it was only a matter of time before either the Great Xia people reached his border after conquering Fang Lijuan"s territory, or the Great Zhou people will come after him once they have settled the territory of the Great Wu.
So, Huang Min"s plan was to increase his dynasty"s luck solely based on the territory size, then absorb enough luck for him to reach purple-gold before immediately leaving this trial.
Huang Min knows perfectly well that his plan is actually quite flawed as he would be backlash by Karma if he did such a thing, however, he was desperate and he did not have much time to plan anything better.
As for the repercussions of his actions, he believed that his Huang Divine Clan would find a way to help him deal with it.
Meanwhile in the Savior Coalition, Princess Ling Hua had just made a plan to respond to the emergency situation of the Coalition.
Her plan was simple. She used a technique to turn into Long Aotian, then started making inspirational speeches to all the people in her remaining territory.
She told them of the cruel methods that the people of the Huang Divine Dynasty had to suffer under their ruler"s hand, and motivated all the capable men and women to take arms and defend their home.
Of course Ling Huan made her appearance look sick and weak to explain the reason that the "Coalition Leader" did not take action personally.
And her plan worked wonderfully. All the people were banded together under the idea of defending the country and fighting foreigners. Whether it was men, women, and even children, they took anything that can be used as weapons and headed to the border to fight these invading barbarians.
Unlike the people of the Fang Divine Dynasty that were forced to enter the army, the Savior Coalition volunteered of their own free-will to join the army in order to defend their dynasty.
While the people of the Savior Coalition were sacrificing their lives for a n.o.ble cause, their leader was drinking wine and chatting with a beautiful G.o.ddess.
Due to his powerful body, Long Aotian only took three days to heal his injury after taking the Earth Tier Pill.
Now, he was having a romantic dinner with Fang Lijuan.
"Juan"er, this wine from your home world is truly the finest delicacy that I have tasted in my life."
"How many times has this G.o.ddess told you not to call me Juan"er. It is already your honor to allow you to call this G.o.ddess by her real name."
"I know, I keep forgetting. So, Juan"er, how is the war going?"
Fang Lijuan sighed, before ignoring the rude behavior of this audacious man.
"Of course it"s going terrible. It is only a matter of time before the Great Xia reaches the capital, thus completely destroying this G.o.ddess" Dynasty."
"Is there anything I can do to help? If we team up together, we can definitely stop Li Jun."
"Is not that this G.o.ddess refuses your help, but with your strength, it will be useless for you to intervene. Not to mention that Li Jun has a female companion that is not far in strength with him. On top of that, the true big boss of the Great Xia, w.a.n.g Wei, has not even shown up yet."
Long Aotian secretly formed a fist with his right hand. In the past few days, he watched a terrible battle between Li Jun and Fang Lijuan. It was then that he realized how weak he truly was.
Even his so-called battle with Huang Min was nothing but a joke, and he was truly lucky to survive.
What"s worse, Long Aotian learned that there was even a more terrible Heaven Chosen behind the Great Xia Dynasty.
Long Aotian sighed before taking a big sip from his wine. He realized that his path to become a Great Emperor still has a long way to go.
Fang Lijuan realized that her words might have hurt Long Aotian, so she immediately said, "Well, thanks to the special formation you provided, our army has been able to greatly slow down the advancement of Great Xia."
Long Aotian just smiled wryly after hearing this. Afterwards, the two of them just drank and chatted about other topics.
After they finished drinking, the two of them stood on top of an ancient wooden building gazing at the stars. The moonlight illuminated them, making both of them look like an immortal couple descending from Heaven.
Suddenly. Long Aotian turned to face Fang Lijuan, held her hands and said, "Juan"er, I know you have a high background and status, but, if you can overlooked my humble background, I want to spent my entire life with you."
Fang Lijuan was shocked by the sudden declaration, so she blushed s.h.i.+ly. Then a happy smile appeared on her face, so he opened her mouth to say something, but she immediately stopped before frowning.
"Is there something wrong? Do you not feel the same way as I do?" asked Long Aotian with a worried look on his face.
"That"s not it," replied Fang Lijuan after sighing. "The truth of the matter is, I am actually already engaged."
"What! With whom!" asked Long Aotian with a fl.u.s.tered look on his face.
"To Huang Min."
"Him?" asked Long Aotian with fury in his face. "In that case, I"ll just kill him to annul the engagement."
