Chapter 812: Grand Plans of All Sides

Mo Xi Li, the capital of the Xiyu Empire.

The King of Xiyu sat helplessly upon the Wang Zuo, looking at the ministers below whose faces were full of anxiety, his own heart also in utter turmoil.

Suddenly, a man in a white robe stepped out of the ranks, bowed, and said:

"Your Majesty, Lord Chenxi is so strong; I believe we must gather all our forces to defend the capital with all our might."

Before this man in the white robe had even finished speaking, someone immediately stood up from the ranks.

"Your Majesty, I also agree with this plan."

As soon as the words fell, all the ministers stepped out of the ranks and spoke one after another:

"Your Majesty, we all agree with this plan."

These ministers were not fools; two Sanctuary Realm experts and nearly a hundred legendary experts had all spilled their blood at the hands of Lord Chenxi.

If they fought again, their lives would surely be short.

The eldest prince, standing at the very front, had already stepped out of the ranks and said:

"Father King, I also agree with the ministers' view."

"Nowadays, our nation's strength has already lost half; given Lord Chenxi's ambitious and reckless nature, the Dingran Society will surely attack."

"Therefore, we must preserve our remaining strength and concentrate the entire nation's power in the capital and the three surrounding cities."

"If Lord Chenxi attacks, with the three cities serving as the first line of defense, the capital will have enough time to develop."

"Moreover, other powers, the Dingranbu Society, will surely not watch Lord Chenxi grow stronger and stronger; they will surely intervene."

"I believe that as soon as our border troops are withdrawn, other empires will surely receive the news and carve up this big cake of Lord Chenxi."

"At that time, when the two sides are fighting and have both suffered heavy losses, we, who have preserved our full strength, will gain the greatest benefit."

Seeing that the man on the Wang Zuo did not speak, the eldest prince continued:

"I know what you are worried about, Father King."

"Lord Chenxi has gained such powerful strength in such a short time; those few extremely aggressive nations to the north will surely be very interested."

"At that time, hehe."

After speaking, a wicked smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

On the Wang Zuo, King Xiyu wore the same smile.

Inside the intermediate magic tower of the Hongfenglian Alliance, which shone with five colors and ten lights.

A group of mages were arguing fiercely.

In the hall, the Divine Wood Envoy stood up and said in a stern voice:

"What is there to fear? Lord Chenxi surely cannot possess such powerful strength."

"It is absolutely because they colluded with other powers."

"Killing two Sanctuary Realm experts; those two Sanctuary Realm experts must also be severely injured and cannot continue to act in the short term."

"If we crush Lord Chenxi during this period, even if those two Sanctuary Realm experts recover, they cannot do anything to us."

After speaking, everyone fell into deep thought.

In a short while, the Divine Water Envoy stood up and said:

"Have you not considered that the Sanctuary Realm expert is a powerful figure cultivated by Lord Chenxi himself?"

As soon as the words were spoken, the whole hall burst into loud laughter.

"Hahaha, Divine Wood Envoy, you are at least a Half-Saint expert; don't you know how difficult it is to break through to the Sanctuary Realm?"

"If breaking through to the Sanctuary Realm were really that easy, the Shanna Continent would long ago have Sanctuary Realm experts as numerous as clouds."

"Furthermore, that Sanctuary Realm expert only barely entered this realm after more than a thousand years of accumulation."

"Lord Chenxi has only appeared for how long? Just over a month; if a Sanctuary Realm expert could appear in such a time, would there be any justice in heaven?"

Hearing these words, the Hongfeng Chief Envoy on the main seat also slowly nodded.

"No need to argue further; breaking through to the Sanctuary Realm is indeed difficult; when I broke through to the Sanctuary Realm back then, it cost me half my life."

"Moreover, it is very difficult for Sanctuary Realm experts to determine life and death between each other."

"Therefore, the Sanctuary Realm expert who killed the Crimson Flame Envoy must surely be severely injured right now and will not be my match."

"Units of every intermediate magic tower, quickly recruit troops; within one day, you must march to the Garrison City."

As soon as the words were spoken, the other six deputy envoys and that white-robed mage lord nodded excitedly in response.

Only the Divine Water Envoy nodded helplessly and said yes.

Seeing this, the Hongfeng Chief Envoy spoke displeasedly:

"Since the Divine Water Envoy does not wish to see war, then you shall be responsible for guarding the Magic City!"

Upon hearing this, the other six Hongfeng deputy envoys were all delighted.

With one less person, there would be one less competitor when dividing the spoils of war.

Thus, the six people one after another spoke in agreement with the Hongfeng Chief Envoy's words.

"Yes, the Divine Water Envoy is the backbone of our Hongfenglian Alliance; if you guard the home, I am at ease."

"The Divine Wood Envoy is right; I also think so; if it were someone else, I would not be at ease."

"Yes, yes!"

Seeing the faces of these few people, the Divine Water Envoy sighed heavily, bowed, and immediately left this place that made him weary.

This scene made the other six Hongfeng deputy envoys even more delighted.

For a time, the southern region of the Shanna Continent fell into a state of turmoil.

In a towering great castle, a court meeting was being held at the highest point.

"Reporting to the Monarch, the source of the phenomenon has been confirmed; it is indeed the recently prominent Lord Chenxi."

Upon the Wang Zuo, a man of resolute countenance, clad in golden holy armor and called the Sovereign, slowly opened his eyes:

"Oh, Lord Chenxi's Domain?"

The silver-armored warrior bowing below continued:

"Yes, the source of the two anomalous deaths in the Holy Domain is the border between the Saint Na Ze Er Forest and the two surrounding great powers."

"Moreover, according to reports from the forward stalls, both forces are now gathering troops, and the situation is unclear."

"In any case, the border region that was originally heavily garrisoned has been completely withdrawn."

Hearing this, the Sovereign in golden holy armor's expression shifted slightly, and he said slowly:

"Issue the order: all units assemble their forces and prepare to march with me. I must see for myself what secret lies within this number-one ranked, wildly prominent Lord Chenxi's Domain."

"Yes!"

Deep within the dense forest, at an extremely vast pool of water.

Rather than a pool, it was more like a small sea.

At this moment, the originally calm water surface suddenly produced enormous ripples.

The next second, an enormous black death dragon head emerged.

"Roar—"

With a long roar, his massive body slowly, slowly revealed itself, and the water level of the entire sea dropped by more than half.
