Chapter 2616: Chapter 2676: Unexpected Situation in the Nine Realms
Su Yang’s Great World, the coalition army has retreated to this realm and fully entrenched itself here.
The Land of Chaos has now been completely lost. Therefore, Su Yang’s Great World also counts as the final battlefield.
After such a long and brutal war, the coalition army’s losses are quite severe, with at least thirty percent of the warriors dying in the Land of Chaos.
For the coalition army now, the previous losses were actually expected. The most troublesome issue now is that after consecutive defeats, morale has sunk to an extreme low, and many have become particularly dispirited.
In their eyes, the strength of the Guardian Gods is far too overwhelming compared to the coalition army. If this continues, the coalition’s final outcome will still be a tragic defeat. There is simply no hope of victory, so what is the point of continuing the fight?
Su Yang can see what’s on their minds; they actually don’t want to fight anymore because there’s simply no hope to be seen.
Su Yang feels helpless too, even he is despairing in his heart. According to their prediction, they should be able to defend this place for a thousand years. Yet, the gap in strength is simply too large. Even if the coalition can hold out here for a thousand years, so what?
Eventually, the Guardian Gods will still come to kill them. A thousand years means little to the coalition, at most it can enhance their strength by ten percent. But the number of strong figures on the Guardian God’s side is a hundred times more than the coalition. How does one fight against this?
Admittedly, there are some warriors in the coalition with considerable backbone, willing to die if it means dragging a few Guardian Gods down with them. Yet, there are also those who fear for their lives.
Su Yang has even caught wind of some rumors. Some people and demon beasts in the coalition are even considering defecting to the Guardian Gods, becoming Beast Tamers or demon beasts ridden by them. In doing so, though dignity is lost in becoming slaves to the Guardian Gods, at least their lives can be preserved!
Faced with this, though Su Yang has heard the rumors, he hasn’t probed further. After all, he really can’t offer these people hope; even ants cling to life, let alone these warriors?
Even though the Guardian Gods occupy the Land of Chaos, it still takes time for them to find Su Yang’s Great World.
During this period, the coalition has been guarding here. However, as the Guardian Gods get closer to this Great World, the army’s morale becomes increasingly shaken. In recent days, some have even snuck away, deserting in battle.
Su Yang neither probes further into these matters. Everyone has their own ambitions, and it would really be unreasonable to drag these people to die together at such a last moment.
On this day, Su Yang was discussing with several leaders of the coalition the matter of facing the Guardian Gods next. Suddenly, someone rushed in from outside, anxiously saying, "Su Alliance Leader, a Long Qiu has come outside, claiming it’s a matter of great urgency that should be reported to the Alliance Leader!"
"Long Qiu?" Su Yang was surprised. Why has this fellow come at such a time?
Since the outbreak of war in the Land of Chaos, Su Yang had stationed Long Qiu at the Nine Realms for guard duty, as a rendezvous point. Should the battle fail, Su Yang would lead the coalition back to the Nine Realms to hide within the World Melting Furnace, with Long Qiu acting as the point of contact there.
Su Yang hadn’t given him any assignment; so why would he rush over now? Also, with urgent business, what is happening? Could something have happened in the Nine Realms?
Thinking of this, Su Yang was taken aback, promptly ordering someone to bring Long Qiu in.
Long Qiu flew straight in, revealing how anxious he truly was.
Upon entering, he shouted loudly, "Boss, something’s happened, something’s happened, something’s happened in the Nine Realms!"
"What’s happened!" Su Yang asked urgently.
"Yu Ling..." Long Qiu had only said two words before seeing a room full of people, momentarily confused, swallowing the remainder of his sentence.
"It’s fine, go ahead!" Su Yang said. "They are all trustworthy people!"
The leaders in the room discussing with Su Yang were indeed those he trusted. They were either chosen by his mother long ago or had walked through life and death alongside him over the years. Su Yang didn’t conceal anything from them; matters concerning the Nine Realms were something they were generally familiar with.
Furthermore, Kunpeng was among them, and given his big mouth nature, it’s likely he had shared much about the World Melting Furnace.
Only then did Long Qiu take a deep breath and said, "Boss, it seems the Feather Spirit Palace is about to appear again. And the World... World Melting Furnace has flown out from Storm Valley!"
"What?" Su Yang’s eyes widened. The Feather Spirit Palace reappearing was already shocking enough. After all, the Feather Spirit Palace had been sealed for a long time, and Su Yang hadn’t seen it for quite a while. With its emergence this time, there’s bound to be some situation, possibly affecting the war.
But the World Melting Furnace suddenly flying out, what’s going on?
The World Melting Furnace was placed in Storm Valley by Su Yang. Unless he went inside to retrieve it, no one else could. After all, there are few who can withstand the strength of Storm Valley!
Now that the World Melting Furnace is out, who retrieved it? Who can endure the power of Storm Valley?
"The World Melting Furnace has come out!" Long Qiu took a deep breath and said, "It was... taken out by a woman..."
"A woman?" Su Yang immediately widened his eyes, "Who is she?"
"I don’t know!" Long Qiu shook his head. "I... I took a glance, and then she glared at me, and I... I flew out. Her strength is formidable; I... I couldn’t get close, so... so I ran to report to you without delay!"
"What on earth is happening?" Su Yang frowned deeply. Who could take the World Melting Furnace out of Storm Valley? A woman, who is it? Ye Wantong?
No, if it were Ye Wantong, Long Qiu would surely know her, and she wouldn’t have acted against him.
Then who could it be?
Su Yang pondered for a long time but finally thought of only one person; that is, his mother.
Could it be that his mother has appeared?
Thinking of this, Su Yang’s mood also became excited. If this is truly the case, wouldn’t he be able to see his mother?
"I must go back and see!" Su Yang immediately stood up and said, "Everyone, it will likely take at least a hundred years for the Guardian Gods to reach here, so please hold out temporarily, I’ll return after taking a look!"
Everyone nodded, since the Guardian Gods wouldn’t attack immediately, it’s fine for Su Yang to leave now.
Su Yang didn’t say much to them but changed his appearance, and quietly left with Long Qiu.
