Chapter 4489
“You may think I’m joking, but I am truly loyal to the Demon Sealing Alliance. If I weren’t, I wouldn’t have traveled all the way to the Xiao Dynasty to declare war,” Zuo Tianzheng asserted.
“Why didn’t you all go if you had the ability? If you had, you might have met your demise in the Xiao Imperial Dynasty long ago,” came the sharp retort.
Patriarch Zhou’s voice boomed in anger!
He refused to admit that he was clinging to life and being disloyal to the Demon Sealing Alliance!
“Alright…” Zuo Tianzheng interjected, waving his hand, causing an immediate hush to fall over the room!
While the loss of two Mahayana Realm 4th Grade cultivators was certainly a blow to the Demon Sealing Alliance, it wasn’t enough to provoke Zuo Tianzheng’s wrath!
“Elder Chu, how are matters progressing?”
Zuo Tianzheng inquired.
“Allied Lord, everything is in place. Xiao Jian has already made his way to the imperial city of the Xiao Imperial Dynasty with his followers,” Elder Chu reported.
“All the Mahayana Realm experts of the Xiao Imperial Dynasty have been summoned to the Imperial City, preparing to confront our Demon Sealing Alliance,” he added.
Zuo Tianzheng smiled subtly, “That’s excellent news. By eliminating these experts from the Xiao Dynasty, we will render the entire dynasty incapable of resistance.”
Turning to Patriarch Zhou, he continued, “Patriarch Zhou, you’ve proven yourself by traveling to the Xiao Imperial Dynasty and gaining valuable insights. I’m assigning you the task of leading our forces to attack the Xiao Imperial Dynasty.”
“You have full authority over the troops, but you must ensure the Xiao Dynasty falls!”
Patriarch Zhou was taken aback; he never expected Zuo Tianzheng to entrust him with such a monumental responsibility!
“Allied Lord, I…”
Patriarch Zhou hesitated, realizing that the more he was involved, the closer he was to his own demise!
“Elder Chu will accompany you. He has already made arrangements, and the Xiao Imperial Dynasty can be taken down with ease,” Zuo Tianzheng stated firmly, not allowing Patriarch Zhou to refuse.
In the end, Patriarch Zhou could only nod in reluctant agreement!
The other members of the Demon Sealing Alliance were left in shock, unable to understand why Zuo Tianzheng chose a cowardly and greedy individual like Patriarch Zhou to lead them!
However, when Zuo Tianzheng spoke, no one dared to voice their objections; this was the law of the Demon Sealing Alliance!
As the assembly dispersed, Patriarch Zhou let out a heavy sigh!
With such a daunting responsibility placed upon him, he felt ill-equipped to handle it!
It seemed that Zuo Tianzheng was determined to lead him to his doom!
“Sovereign, you’ve really stepped up! Now you can command these members of the Demon Sealing Alliance,” Tian Luo remarked as he approached Patriarch Zhou, brimming with excitement.
“Many of them look down on us, so now’s your chance to turn the tables!”
Patriarch Zhou shot a fierce glare at Tian Luo, feeling an overwhelming urge to slap him into silence!
This guy must have something wrong with his head!
Noticing the look on Patriarch Zhou’s face, Tian Luo quickly stepped back, fear evident in his eyes!
Patriarch Zhou then turned to Elder Chu, saying, “Elder Chu, regarding our upcoming attack on the Xiao Imperial Dynasty, I hope to receive your guidance.”
“Patriarch Zhou, there’s no need to worry. The second prince of the Xiao Imperial Dynasty has already pledged loyalty to us and is a member of our Demon Sealing Alliance. There’s nothing to fear!” Elder Chu reassured him.
“That’s a relief! Let’s set off immediately!”
With a slight sigh of relief, Patriarch Zhou ordered the members of the Demon Sealing Alliance to prepare for departure!
The Demon Sealing Alliance mobilized hundreds of members, nearly a hundred of whom were Mahayana Realm cultivators!
However, nearly all of these Mahayana Realm experts were demonic cultivators, the fruits of years of cultivation by the Alliance!
With their forces, they advanced toward the Xiao Dynasty in impressive numbers!
Meanwhile, Xiao Feng was also preparing his troops; the entire Imperial City was fortified with thousands of guards and numerous Mahayana Realm experts gathered from across the realm!
“Your Imperial Son, all the Mahayana Realm experts have arrived, except for those from Cangwolf City,” Yu Wenqiang informed Xiao Feng quietly.
“Cangwolf City is just a small border town; I doubt there are any significant experts there. Let them come if they wish!”
Xiao Feng waved his hand dismissively, unaware that the guardian of Cangwolf City was his half-brother and that dozens of Mahayana Realm experts were stationed there!
These were the forces Xiao Jian had cultivated over the years while watching over Cangwolf City!
At that moment, Xiao Jian was also racing to the Imperial City, accompanied by the experts from Cangwolf City!
