Chapter 244: Ultimatum
The elder frowned slightly when he saw him appear.
But he still smiled nonetheless.
"Elder, although your alchemist association is respected, do you really think you can stop our sect? We have already respected your status for several months, so you must settle for that so we can all win." Replied this elder, causing the elder on the other side to frown.
'This bastard, even when he sees that I'm here he doesn't seem to want to back down... I won't be able to complete the mission at this rate. After all, we can't get into these wars...' The elder thought.
And a voice attracted his attention, in addition to the powerful aura it carried.
"Heh, the elders of that sect sure are arrogant. They come here to kidnap as they please, murder from side to side, and still want us to be slaves and give them our heroes, hmph. I, Emperor Zu, will not allow any of you to take another step." He said, as his entire aura firmly revealed upwards, revealing his cultivation at the First Level of the Spiritual Emperor Realm.
"Look, it's the emperor!" shouted several people in the crowd of soldiers.
"Emperor Zu came to battle with us, it's time to kill all those murderous bastards!"
"It's time to kill them!"
Voices soon began to spread throughout the protective wall as everyone became aware of the emperor's arrival.
Also...
"Look, he's accompanied by Headmaster Zhang!" shouted another, and Zhang Feiju also revealed his cultivation at that moment.
A cultivation slightly superior to the emperor's was visible as it pressed hard against the enemy forces, but it was soon countered by 2 auras of equal magnitude that collided forcefully, neutralizing both forces with one blow.
"Hahaha, Little Zu, Old Zhang, looks like you two are finally making your presence known, why don't you tell me where the Wind Princess is? We'll be able to prevent the death of innocent people if you do that." Said 'Old Huang' at that time with a big smile.
"Hmph, so it's you the New Great General of the Red Wind, long time no see, Ghost Huang." Emperor Zu replied mockingly, and Ghost Huang laughed loudly.
"Hahahaha, I didn't expect you could still recognize me. Since you know it's me, why don't you tell me where that girl is? The sect wants her, if you do, I'll let your family join the sect so you can survive." Ghost Huang said with a smile.
Then Emperor Zu shrugged his shoulders.
"Well, if you put it like that, I like it." Replied the Emperor mockingly and then pulled a person towards him, it was a woman.
"Here she is, why don't you come and get her yourself? I will deliver her safe and sound into your hand." Emperor Zu replied, and Phantom Huang was surprised.
'Is that her?' He thought in shock, 'Would this old man really hand her over so easily?' He thought, but he stared, and she wasn't as pretty as the rumors said...
Just at that moment, a person raised his voice in the crowd.
"It's fake, that's not Huang Feifei!" he shouted.
Making everyone look at him.
"Huang Liuji, are you sure it's not?" Ghost Huang asked when he saw that this one came out. Moreover, he was coming behind another person, which was Huang Riaoyu, the Huang's Young Head Master.
Huang Liuji nodded at the question.
"Yes, Elder. She is not Huang Feifei, I am sure. I knew her for many years." He replied, and Ghost Huang let out a snort.
"Hmph, Emperor Zu, pitifully for you, here we have someone who knows the Princess of Wind, how do you want to deceive us now?" he asked angrily, and Emperor Zu laughed a little in mockery.
"Heh, even if she were here, I wouldn't give it to you. But you guys are idiots and don't understand. Our Crown Princess of the Wind is not an idiot like you who lock yourselves behind a status so that nothing happens to you and seek the shelter of the strong. She is more of a warrior than any of you, do you think she would stay here when the border is under attack?
Hehe, you are such idiots, I'm sure that your border forces have already been wiped out by now." Replied the Emperor, causing the ghost elder and the other sect elder to frown.
'She's at the border? Shit, isn't that girl afraid of death? Weren't there 12 generals in that place? 'Shit, I hope she's alright, if not, the Elder will scold us...' Thought the two of them at that moment, but then they realized that it might be another lie from this Emperor to divert their attention.
This made them feel mocked, so they became angry.
"Fine, fine! Since you want a war, then we'll have a war!" shouted the elder ghost.
"Everyone get ready, let's get the wind princess out of wherever she is!" he shouted again as he turned around.
"You bastards, are you ignoring me!" the high-level association elder who was here shouted at that moment, and the great sect elder let out a snort.
"Association elder, tell your association to stop meddling where they are not called, do you think our Great Sect is afraid of them? Hmph." He replied fiercely.
"All Ships ready, we will enter by air and land into this city!" he shouted, and then the warships surrounding the imperial capital went on full alert.
Many ships within the city were also activated as the emperor gave the order, and all the cultivators on both sides displayed their cultivations as they slammed their spirit weapons into the ground, creating a powerful rumble of spiritual energy.
"LOAD THE CANNONS!"
"CANNONS READY!"
They shouted on both sides.
Without warning and from one moment to the next, a terrifying war was about to sweep through the Capital City of an empire.
But, just at that moment, a piece of news reached the emperor...
"Are the demons out already!?" he shouted in shock, and someone nodded to him, the news was true...
Therefore, he could only look at Zhang Feiju.
The latter simply nodded. There was nothing more to say or do, he knew what he should do with just that.
If a demonic portal was opened in the city, no matter what, it was not to be left there. Therefore, he began to run hard towards that place and took many cultivators with him, weakening this side greatly...
"PRINCESS WIND HEIRESS, COME OUT WHEREVER YOU ARE!"
"WE'LL GIVE YOU 30 SECONDS, IF YOU DON'T COME OUT, WE'LL DESTROY THE CAPITAL CITY!"
Shouts rang out from side to side behind the wall at that moment, and alarms sounded in the capital city, announcing that a terrifying attack was coming upon it.
Many people had already been evacuated earlier, but those who had not could only take shelter in their homes.
These alarms and sounds of war trumpets announced that they might soon disappear from this world, so all those who could not fight hugged each other tightly, and those who could fight left the city armed.
The army in front of them was immense, and they were all armed. In addition, the scariest thing was those cannons that should not be used in these places, which were being loaded and pointed toward the city...
And so, the seconds passed...
It was as if, for every second that passed, the end of the world was closer.
Even the Emperor clenched his fists tightly and prepared to attack...
"ALL ON GUARD, ATTACK!" shouted the emperor before those 30 seconds had passed...
*BOOOOM*
Various explosions occurred at that moment as all the cannons were fired in succession but on the other side...
"WIND HEIR PRINCESS, IT'S YOUR FAULT THE DESTRUCTION OF THE CAPITAL CITY OF BLIZZARD!" shouted Ghost Huang at that moment, and then...
"ATTACK!" A mighty roar came out of his mouth, causing all the ships and cultivators to launch their attacks, but...
Just as all these attacks were about to come, everyone could hear several sounds of huge cannons nearby, and the thundering sound of a huge warship was heard...
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
A gigantic explosion arose as a powerful attack hit several flying ships, leaving the entire population in shock at this thunderous and deafening sound.
The emperor himself and other powerful people were in shock.
"WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING!?" shouted many of them, and those who were attacking the capital city, saw how their warships began to fall, this left them in shock...
"Elder, look!" shouted someone, while pointing to a huge warship with a distinctive and strange logo, which was approaching at great speed, with still smoking cannons...
