Chapter 257: Great Qian is about to flip the table!

He knew the ambitions and desires of these khans, and also understood that they would become an important force on the future steppe.

However, he cared more about the fact that the conflicts and struggles among these khans could bring him great benefits.

Although these khans had temporarily formed an alliance, the trust and friendship between them were extremely fragile.

Everyone had their own calculations and ambitions; once the opportunity arose, or the chips were sufficient.

For their own interests, they could hesitate not at all to stab their allies in the back.

Su Ye's thoughts drifted like floating clouds, shifting again; this time they floated toward the south of Great Yong.

There, the originally peaceful and tranquil East of the River region was now stormy, with dark currents surging.

Que King and Ye King, these two former hegemons of Great Yong who once commanded the wind and clouds, now face an unprecedented challenge.

Behind their territories, the many water systems of the East of the River region suddenly gained a force as fierce as wolves and tigers—the Chu Army.

The appearance of this army was like a thunderbolt from a clear sky, shattering the tranquility of Great Yong's southern East of the River region.

The leader of this Chu Army was named Xiang Yu.

He wore black gold armor, wielded a heaven-breaking halberd, and was extraordinarily brave.

Leading the Chu Army, like a tiger descending the mountain, he conquered dozens of cities in Great Yong's south, unstoppable.

By Xiang Yu's side followed a top-tier War God named Gong Gong.

This Gong Gong was tall and stalwart, like a towering mountain.

His visage was ferocious and terrifying, his eyes flashing with wild and mysterious light.

His whole body exuded a wild aura, like an awakened beast ready to pounce on prey at any moment.

Most importantly, this Gong Gong was versed in naval warfare and possessed boundless strength.

On the battlefield, like an unstoppable killing machine, he added formidable combat power to the Chu Army, making Xiang Yu even more formidable.

The combined efforts of Xiang Yu and Gong Gong made the situation in Great Yong's south increasingly tense.

Although Que King and Ye King were also regional overlords,

facing Xiang Yu's top-tier combat power and the War God Gong Gong's supreme naval warfare,

they also felt immense pressure.

Finally, on the Western Ridge in the west,

originally weak for a long time, even reduced to a disgrace of the dynasty,

the small states and tribes that had once submitted to Great Sheng were now eager to take a bite out of this fat piece of meat.

The borders of the Great Sheng Dynasty had repeatedly seen probes and provocations from other dynasties.

People wondered when the Great Sheng Dynasty would completely fall into historical dust.

And at this critical juncture,

the Great Sheng Dynasty's court suddenly saw the appearance of a clansman named Di Jun.

He emerged unexpectedly, accompanied by a Yin-Yang School Supreme Elder named Kunpeng.

In the Great Sheng court, he pressed step by step against that demon empress who was wreaking havoc on the Great Sheng Dynasty,

gradually reclaiming authority over the Great Sheng capital.

This news lifted Su Ye's spirits.

In the information he had previously received, similarly implanted into the Qin Dynasty of Western Ridge was Ying Zheng, Brother Zheng.

Yet he had been salivating over this fat piece of meat that was the Great Sheng Dynasty.

Ying Zheng was originally an extremely ambitious person, desiring to unify the four directions and establish an unprecedented vast empire.

And the Great Sheng Dynasty was, in his eyes, both a stumbling block and a tempting piece of meat.

Now the Great Sheng Dynasty suddenly had a variable like Di Jun.

This is getting interesting.

Originally Su Ye also worried that the Great Sheng Dynasty, after losing its last Dao Soldiers trump card,

would be pressed into the ground and rubbed by the Qin Dynasty led by Brother Zheng.

be quickly devoured.

He had even prepared for the worst, believing the Great Sheng Dynasty would be swiftly annexed by the Qin Dynasty and become part of its territory.

At that time, the Qin Dynasty that possessed a realm's territory, or rather the Qin Dynasty,

under Ying Zheng's leadership, with its strategists as numerous as clouds and its fierce generals as abundant as rain,

would have a threatening power

that would be dozens of times greater than that of the present Great Sheng Dynasty!

But now, Di Jun's appearance has made everything become mysterious and unpredictable.

As these memory fragments in his mind, like puzzle pieces, gradually came together in Su Ye's mind,

it let him understand the situation on today's martial continent more deeply and comprehensively.

He took a deep breath, slowly opened his eyes, and a determined, confident smile appeared on his face.

He carefully savored these suddenly arisen memories, and a nameless feeling welled up in his heart.

With the use of this era summoning card,

the most brilliant era of the Heaven Martial Continent has arrived!

And just as Su Ye was massively summoning,

at this moment, the border of Yan Province was ablaze with war, smoke filling the air.

With Xiong'an City fallen and its retreat cut off,

the standoff between the Tan Meng Army-led Great Qian Pacification Army and the Chi Yu Army had already lasted half a month.

The standoff between the Great Qian rebellion‑suppressing army led by Tan Mengjun and the Chi Yu Army has already lasted about half a month.

The two armies repeatedly fought back and forth across several prefectures and counties of Yan Province, but neither could ever gain a decisive victory.

Of course, this is because the Red Imperial Army deliberately sought to undermine the morale of the Da Qian dynasty's anti‑rebel army.

Thus, as the fighting continued, the Da Qian dynasty's disadvantages gradually became apparent.

Their rear was cut off, they lost territory repeatedly, and morale fell into panic.

But at this critical juncture, the Da Qian imperial family finally decided to overturn the table.

They directly deployed their hidden strength, hoping to turn the tide in one fell swoop.

This force usually remains hidden, yet each of its members is a world‑shaking presence.

Leading the charge is the Da Qian imperial family's elder ancestor, Si Ruokong.

A peerless powerhouse at the pinnacle of Cultivation.

He wields the Heaven‑Earth Dragon's Roar Palm, which blends imperial majesty with the might of heaven and earth; when he strikes, it roars like a dragon shaking the heavens and moves the very cosmos.

Calm and dignified, he commands respect without anger.

As the Si family's imperial elder ancestor, he is well versed in the arts of power politics and remains utterly loyal to his clan and the dynasty.

He is one of the Da Qian dynasty's most vital hidden assets, training in seclusion year‑round and only appearing when the dynasty faces peril.

Next is a late‑stage Cultivation eunuch elder; though a eunuch, his strength far exceeds ordinary imagination.

He cultivates in seclusion within the palace, unconcerned with worldly affairs, yet whenever the imperial family faces danger he steps forward to turn peril into safety.

His appearance is soft and yin‑like, his eyes deep, and every gesture exudes an inscrutable, mysterious aura.

He wields the Yin‑Yang Sever Dawn, an extremely esoteric eunuch‑exclusive martial art that uses yin‑yang power to rend the void, making it impossible to guard against.

After that comes the chief of the Da Qian Suspended Mirror Office, likewise a late‑stage Cultivation powerhouse.

He oversees the Da Qian dynasty's intelligence and surveillance network, with agents spread across the world so that not a whisper escapes his notice.

His face is like polished jade, his eyes like bright stars; though he often smiles, his gaze reveals a sharp intent.

Besides these three, there is also a mid‑stage Cultivation honorary elder of the Da Qian imperial family.

He is known as Xiao Tian Mojun, practicing the Laughing Heaven Demon Skill, which takes laughter as a weapon; the laughter contains boundless power, able to shake the mind and even shatter an enemy's internal organs.

He is unrestrained and unbridled, acting as he pleases, making it hard to tell whether he is righteous or wicked.
