Chapter 679: That Li Chen will definitely give me some face! (Seeking subscriptions)

Ivan was truly driven crazy by anger, wanting to mobilize all the elite troops guarding the Holy Capital and even the dynasty's last trump card to encircle and suppress the Wizard Ancestor!

This was simply a desperate gamble, wanting to empty the Daluo Dynasty's family fortune!

"Your Majesty, no! Absolutely not!"

"Your Majesty, calm your anger! This move is equivalent to destroying our own home!"

"Your Majesty, think twice! May Tian Ce in the south and the internal rebel army are eyeing us covetously; if the Holy Capital is empty, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

The assembled officials were scared out of their wits; they threw themselves to the ground one after another, kowtowing like garlic-pounders as they desperately tried to dissuade him.

"Get out! All get out of my sight! Whoever dares to persuade again will be executed without mercy!" Ivan had completely lost his reason, kicking the old minister who knelt closest away.

The old minister screamed, spat blood, and fell to the ground, unable to get up.

Seeing this, other ministers were even more silent, no one dared to come forward again.

How could Ivan not know that if he really followed what the document said and knelt to worship the Wizard Ancestor, he might really be able to temporarily exchange for the other party's support and solve the crisis at hand.

But in that way, his imperial majesty would be swept away, and from then on, wouldn't he become a dog under the Wizard Ancestor's feet?

He would rather perish with the country than suffer this great humiliation!

Seeing that they couldn't persuade the furious emperor, the ministers were anxious, and in desperation, they could only quietly invite the Empress Dowager who lived deep in the harem.

The Empress Dowager knew her son's self-willed temper well; once a decision was made, even nine cows couldn't pull him back. But in the current situation, if Ivan was allowed to mess around, the Daluo Dynasty might really perish!

She thought about it, and now in the world, perhaps only one person could make Ivan calm down.

That was Ivan's grandfather, the Dinghai God Needle of the Daluo Dynasty, the legendary powerhouse who had been in seclusion in the imperial mausoleum secret realm to impact a higher realm, that old ancestor who had long since stopped asking about world affairs!

Outside the forbidden land of the Daluo Dynasty royal family, led by the Prime Minister, dozens of core heavy ministers dressed in plain clothes knelt on the ground, with a memorial written in blood by hundreds of officials placed in front of them, every word crying blood, begging the old ancestor in seclusion to come out and save the dynasty's national destiny that was on the verge of collapse.

This matter was of great importance and had already touched the foundation of the dynasty's survival.

The May Tian Ce Dynasty in the south had clearly laid out its horses, having no intention of stopping the war and seeking peace, determined to gnaw off this hard bone of Daluo, even if the progress was slow, it was constantly eroding the territory, which was already an endless situation.

The internal rebel army of Xie Xie Ergai was even more under the banner of "clearing the emperor's side and saving the country from disaster," wrapping up public opinion, and the momentum was fierce.

What made the court officials feel most strange and powerless was that May Tian Ce's army seemed to have formed some kind of invisible tacit understanding with Xie Xie Ergai.

The main force always avoided the area where Xie Xie Ergai was active and focused on other defense lines of the empire, which allowed Xie Xie Ergai to develop and grow so rampantly.

If it weren't for knowing Xie Xie Ergai's background and that he had no connection with May Tian Ce, almost everyone would suspect whether the two had secretly colluded!

The fluctuation deep in the forbidden land finally alarmed that ancient existence who was sleeping.

Concerning the continuation of the country's destiny, he could no longer stay out of it.

A few days later, an old man dressed in simple hemp clothes, with white hair and beard but a ruddy complexion and eyes as deep as the starry sky, quietly appeared in Ivan's imperial study.

He was the Dinghai God Needle of the Daluo Dynasty, Ivan's grandfather, the old ancestor named Romanov. ===== CHAPTER 680 =====
