With the arrival of the second peak Soul Evolution Stage cultivators, the morale of the palace increased considerably.
It was already at an all time high when the cannons arrived, basting away their enemies. But it went to new heights when their second pillar of support arrived.
Tian Jiang was in the air, coldly looking at the two groups that were laid in front of him. Some were fighting each other, some were trying to break through the barrier, and the remaining, basically two or three of the strongest in each camp, were immobile.
The strongest wouldn't fight until the very end, and they would wait. They would wait for the fight to reach its climax before they would step in. After all, they were going to be the turning point in this fight.
"Han Kim! I thought that our kingdoms had an agreement! It looks like the Handu kingdom is reneging on that deal. After I am done dealing with you, I will make sure that the entire kingdom will fall. The Handu kingdom has no reason to exist anymore. I was always unsure why our kingdom was so docile, allowing people like you to stay alive. This will all change when the crown prince gets on the throne." Tian Jiang shouted.
He was about to dash forward, when Tian Hun stopped him.
"Wait. Do not let your blood flow to the head. We need to stall. How long before the crown prince completes the refining process? Wait. I thought that the crown prince lost the battle?" Tian Hun transmitted this to Tian Jiang.
This was all private, and it was best if no one was hearing what they spoke.
"That idiot Liu Feng sat on the throne without having the final piece of the throne. He will get consumed by the curse of the king before the week ends. After two days, the crown prince will start refining the throne, and I will help him out by supplying enough Qi. That should speed up the process." Tian Jiang said back.
"Wait, he sat on the throne without- Fine. I never liked that bastard who had no manners. But why don't you just throw him out of the throne? You can just do that right? The crown prince can start refining the throne immediately. It should only take a week for that to happen." Tian Hun said.
"Well, I wanted to do that. But the goddamn brat's parents are here. Who would have thought that the three to break into the palace at this time would be the three peak soul evolution stage cultivators who already shook the capital once."
"Those three are here? Tian Xin is out?"
"Yes. The lass has broken out of that hole. But luckily, they are not going to go against us, and for now, that is all that matters." Tian Jiang said.
"The moment that they decide to take the throne for themselves, who is to stop Tian Xin from refining the throne? All of us know that the throne chose Tian Xin a long time ago." Tian Hun said.
All while they were speaking, the barrier was being attacked. Still, the two were chatting like nothing was happening. That was their confidence in the barrier.
It was so strong that it could last even a month as long as they kept supplying it with spirit stones. But they couldnt keep it going forever.
That would be way too expensive. They would need to stop at some point, and it was better if it was as early as possible.
They were still in their own territory. Their kingdom was in danger. The only reason that the enemies were trying to break into the palace was because they were under the impression that someone was also inside, trying to refine the throne.
The moment that they understood that it was going to take a little more time than normal, they could hold the entire capital hostage.
"And why the hell do I not see everyone here? Every single power. Call everyone here. Where is the Ding family? I can see that the Shen siblings can't hold it in their pants there, but I don't see any other sect here. Those bastards happily stayed a part of the kingdom when all was going well. But the moment that there is a problem, they disappear? Call them all. Remind them why they exist." Tian Jiang scowled.
"Do you think that I am chilling here? Tell your elders to do this menial task. I have an array to control." Tian Hun scoffed.
"You know better than I do that this array is not too important. If those people come, we can finally put everyone here and fight. I am sick of staying in this shell like a tortoise." Tian Jiang said, clearly irritated.
"The others, I get. I don't know how this happened, but two huge powers of the kingdom disappeared in such a short time. But I don't know where Ding Jing? I can't reach him. The entire Ding family acts as if they have disappeared from the world. What is going on there?" Tian Hun asked.
"What do I know? I just came back to the capital. And even then, the Ding family refused to talk to me. It looks like they need a good beating. Do we have anyone outside that can go to the Ding family? Anyone?" Tian Jiang countered.
"I don't know what is going on there, but they better have a good answer. Go back and tell Cai Guo to come out of the throne room. The bastard doesn't need to protect a dying young master. He needs to help fight back these enemies." Tian Hun said.
"You can go tell him yourself." Tian Jiang shook his head. "I am not your servant."
