Chapter 465: The Heavenly Emperor

The Demon Heaven Palace is gone.

This is explosive news.

Although Dou Changsheng had little contact with the Demon Heaven Palace and never felt its pressure, the Demon Heaven Palace had stood in Southern Chen, dominating the southern lands—whether Dali, Gouyue, or other nations, who did not live in trembling fear?

The Tang family of Jiangdu, a world-renowned forging clan, had even produced Tang Qingyan, a top-twenty force on the Earth Rank, yet they could barely defend themselves against the Demon Heaven Palace.

He feared that Anqila, after cultivating a large number of followers on Earth, would simply stay in this new world and continue becoming a god. After all, the original Twilight Realm was already destroyed, and there were terrifying ancient evil entities—better to settle quietly on Earth.

Lingnan Region lies to the east of Central City; as a frontier town, Longyan City is beyond the western suburbs’ forests.

Zhang Tianlei had never heard this name, so he let it go and turned his gaze to the zombies below.

Everyone looked over, and what they saw was a dark shadow slowly approaching through the dense forest, accompanied by a foul stench of decay.

After asking those around them, they realized all their watches had stopped, as if collectively going on strike.

The middle-aged man coming to greet him saw it, startled slightly, curiously staring at the foot stepping out of the car, waiting to see what kind of person could make Ye Kaicheng personally open the door for him.

His parents were CEOs of a giant conglomerate, showering him with endless affection; on this land, he could have anything he wanted—his personality was arrogant and tyrannical, and anyone who offended him met a terrible end.

The hearts of Wuantongtian, Xia Qingfeng, Ma Long, and others on the Burning Immortal Platform finally settled.

“Heh, rest assured, leave it to me. Everyone, rest a bit longer. When our transport ship arrives, I’ll take you aboard.” With that, the man returned to the ranks to attend to the wounded soldiers.

Da Zhuang and the others always said that if he had no father, no one would protect him and his mother. His uncle would one day have his own wife and children, and then he might abandon him and his mother. His grandparents were powerless—what would become of him and his mother?

Zhang Sao stepped over the scattered clothes and placed the thermos on the table. On the table lay several discarded Durex condoms—Zhang Sao, being a woman of experience, recognized them at a glance.

“First, we should establish an organization and cultivate our own strength. Second, build a school to train government management talent,” Chen Liang suggested.

The red silk tied around their waists fluttered in the wind; Bai Yifeng, Wang Xuanlong, and the others exchanged helpless glances, frozen in place.

Dong Zhanyun suddenly tapped the puppet. The middle-aged man stiffened, then became motionless.

“I plan to spend three months training the troops and stabilizing the situation in the Beibu Gulf Economic Zone, then move into Yunnan by mid-April,” Chen Ning replied.

The first person to pass it was steady, though he couldn’t stand the durian’s stench and barely held back a sneeze.

His body had just recovered somewhat when he began forming another hand seal, trying to restore his true qi. The moment he moved his hands, it was already too late—outside, there was movement: several sharp whistling sounds, the signature of experts slicing through air, then silence returned.

Beneath the secret passage, he lit a fire starter; by its glow, he clearly saw the chaotic footprints on the ground.

The Empress had managed the Six Palaces for years but had never encountered such a situation. Regaining her composure, she saw the scene in the hall and hurriedly ordered Xia Jin to bring Qi Yu a cloak to cover her wounds and exposed skin.

“Now is not the time. If we reclaim Hong Kong now, Britain will likely retaliate fiercely—it would be too costly for us. Wait until the European war breaks out and Britain is too occupied to pay attention to the Far East, then we’ll seize the chance to reclaim Hong Kong,” Chen Ning answered.
