Against the Gods

"New Moon City..." Lightly reciting the name he was born and raised, which should have been the most familiar name in his life, Sikong Du's voice was full of sadness and desolation: "Where is New Moon City now... New Moon? The city is already over... the entire Blue Wind Nation is about to be over!!"

"..." Yun Che's breathing suddenly became heavier, he forcibly calmed down, squatted down and grabbed Sikong Du's shoulder and said, "What the hell is going on? The three years I've been away... What happened to Blue Wind Nation? what!"

"It's the Divine Phoenix Empire!!" The young man on the right side of Sikongdu gritted his teeth and said, "Three years ago, the Divine Phoenix Empire suddenly overwhelmed the realm with a large army, smashing Nantian City overnight, and in less than half a month, it occupied the entire Southern Sky Territory... ...no war was declared, no warning, and no explanation or reason! The messengers sent were all directly beheaded... Since then, the Divine Phoenix army has continued to increase, reaching millions... like a group of mad dogs. The same invasion and trampling on our Blue Wind country... Crescent Moon City fell as early as a year ago..."

"What... what?" Yun Che's hands clenched suddenly, he shook his head forcefully, forcing himself to calm down, and said solemnly, "Why did the Divine Phoenix Empire suddenly invade? Three years ago... that was basically when I left. The Divine Phoenix Royal Family should know very well that my accident in the Primordial Profound Ark was to save Princess Snow of the Divine Phoenix Sect! Princess Snow is not only a princess in the Divine Phoenix Empire, but an important being that transcends everything, and I am the Blue Wind Royal Family. My concubine... just on this point, even if they don’t thank my Blue Wind Royal Family for this, and repay them with great gratitude, why would they invade!!”

Sikong Du gave a miserable laugh: "You died in the ancient profound ark for saving Princess Xue of the Divine Phoenix Empire. This incident is known to the world shortly after your accident. Anyone with a little conscience should remember this life-threatening incident. Well… but Divine Phoenix Nation… they don’t even have the most basic human nature! Gratitude? What a big joke! Not only did they invade our Blue Wind Nation, they also destroyed my land and cities, and slaughtered my Blue Wind citizens… Just a bunch of mad dogs, a bunch of demons!!"

The grief, anger and hatred in Sikongdu's voice made people feel the piercing heart just by hearing it, and the sixteen youths around were also full of resentment and gritted their teeth. Yun Che said calmly, his voice gloomy: "The war in the Profound Sky Continent... has always been based on the premise of not harming the civilian population! This is the most basic humane way! After all, the Divine Phoenix Empire is the Profound Sky Division that has inherited the power of the phoenix. How could a big country do such a thing!"

"I can't figure it out either... I can't figure it out!" Sikong Du's voice sounded like a howl, he shivered and stretched out his fingers, pointing forward: "Yun Che... look, look at this place with your own eyes! , which used to be the two-hundred-mile New Moon Forest, the New Moon Profound Palace, and often used this place as a test site. But now... how can there be a New Moon Forest! In order to break through the defense line as soon as possible, they directly used phoenix flames Burn the whole two hundred li of the new moon forest... not a single inch of grass will be left!"

Yun Che: "..."

"And... our Crescent City." Sikong Du pointed his finger to the west, and his eyes were full of tears: "They broke through the city gate and entered the city... In order to win Crescent City as soon as possible, they even set fire to burn the city. ...the burning... or the phoenix flames of their Divine Phoenix Empire! 40% of New Moon City's urban area was burned to ashes... A full 40%! Crescent City residents who died under the phoenix flames, there are as many as one million people. Too many! The people who died under their swords were even more numerous... Those who resisted died, those who did not bend their knees died, and those who had profound energy in their bodies died... In less than three years, my Blue Wind Nation has already Tens of millions of people were buried at the feet of the Divine Phoenix Dog… tens of millions!!”

Sikong Du's voice became more mournful, and every word was filled with hatred. Under his sorrowful cry, the sixteen young people around were already bursting into tears.

A young man on the left said slowly: "We are all disciples of the New Moon Profound Palace... But now, the New Moon City is destroyed, and the New Moon Profound Palace is gone. The father of Instructor Situ... Instructor Sikong Han is for the sake of Buying time for us to escape, but...but...we can't even find his bones now."

"We've all lost our homes and relatives... The only purpose of our existence is to follow Instructor Sikong and kill all the Divine Phoenix dogs!" The boy who spoke seemed to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, but in his eyes, With a fortitude and... hatred that doesn't match his age.

“The Divine Phoenix Army is too strong, our cultivation base is too weak, and there is absolutely no way to fight head-to-head, we can only wander around New Moon City, ambushing the Divine Phoenix Army that has taken down Shan… Can kill one is one, how many can be killed… Just now we were far apart, and I vaguely saw the pattern of golden flames on your body, I thought it was the Divine Phoenix Army, so I attacked."

Yun Che slowly let go of Sikongdu with both hands, his eyes dazed for a while. He looked at the people around Sikongdu... The oldest of them was only in his early twenties, and the youngest was only sixteen or seventeen years old. Their clothes were tattered, covered with blood, and their bodies were covered with scars. Individuals, even nearly a third of their bodies were wrapped in blood-stained bandages.

During his time in the Illusory Demon Realm, although he felt like an arrow in his heart, subconsciously, he was not too worried about the safety of the people he cared about. Because in Blue Wind Nation, the royal family would protect them, even if something really happened, she was still a disciple of Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace, Xia Qingyue would not forget about her husband and wife, and Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace would definitely take action. shelter.

The Divine Phoenix Sect, who had grudges against him, had no grudges anymore because he used his life to save Feng Xue'er, only thanks. That Ye Xinghan, who had completely absolved himself of his sins... his own death was the result he most wanted to see, so he wouldn't take out his anger against the people around him after he died.

But he never dreamed that he would return to the Blue Wind Nation where he was thinking day and night with boundless joy, and what he saw was actually this apocalyptic scene.

Burning the city...destroying...slaughtering...tens of millions of Blue Wind people lost their lives...

Every word, every number, is like just being fished out of a purgatory blood pool, wriggling with scarlet blood.

Why on earth...why did the Divine Phoenix Empire do this...it shouldn't...this kind of thing shouldn't happen!

Heart, beating violently. Even when he was cornered by Duke Ming in the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley, his mood was not as chaotic as it is now. He took a few deep breaths and said as calmly as possible, "Senior Brother Sikong... How is the situation in Blue Wind Nation now? Is there anything wrong with Blue Wind Imperial City?"

Sikong Du coughed violently for a while, and said in pain: "The invasion of the Divine Phoenix Mad Dogs is extremely terrifying, in order to annex our Blue Wind Nation in the shortest time, not only did they use a tremendous amount of military power, but they did everything they could... If it weren't for Her Majesty the Queen Being wise and decisive, setting up seven wonderful defense lines, and resisting them for a long time with the strength several times weaker, the Blue Wind Nation may have already…”

"Your Majesty? What do you mean by Your Majesty!!" Yun Che's heart trembled violently, his pupils contracted for a moment, he grabbed Sikongdu's collar and roared, "What about my royal father...why? Her Majesty the Queen?"

"The first emperor..." Sikong Du smiled bitterly: "The first emperor was assassinated and killed as early as two months after the Divine Phoenix Dog invaded."

"~!@#￥%..." Yun Che let go of his hands weakly, his eyes were empty, his body swayed, and he staggered backwards.

"Big brother!"

"Big Brother Yun!"

Xiao Yun and Number Seven Under Heaven hurried forward to support him. The moment they touched him, they clearly felt that Yun Che's whole body was actually cold. They knew very little about the Profound Sky Continent, let alone any feelings, but just listening to Sikong Du's description just now, they were all deeply shocked. And in their minds, Yun Che has always been the person who can be trusted the most, even omnipotent, even if the sky falls down without changing his face... One can imagine how much impact these things had on him.

"I...I'm fine." Yun Che gently broke free from Xiao Yun and Number Seven Under Heaven's hands. He raised his head and took a deep breath. But the clenched hands were trembling violently all the time, and they couldn't stop.

"Empress Cang Yue is really amazing!" The young man on Sikong Du's right couldn't help but said, his eyes were full of deep respect and yearning: "Back then when the first emperor was assassinated, those waste princes didn't want to be the kings of a subjugated country. , I am even more afraid of being assassinated like the previous emperor. No one dared to inherit the throne. It was the Empress Cang Yue who took the initiative to resist this burden. At first, we thought that if the princess was the emperor, the Blue Wind Nation would surely perish faster. The Moon Empress is really even better than the previous emperor. Although she is in the imperial city, she knows almost everything in Blue Wind. She can always take advantage of the terrain and geographical advantages to form the most perfect line of defense... Moreover, she does not have the softness and decisiveness of ordinary women. Resolute abandonment, concentrated defense... Especially in the battle of the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range, Her Majesty the Queen had a large amount of beast-inducing incense prepared early, inspiring countless profound beasts in the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range to attack the Divine Phoenix Dog... That line of defense was blocked. They've been with them for months!"

"...Yue'er." Yun Che's eyes were hazy, and he whispered softly. Before he met Cang Yue, she had traveled to many Profound Palaces, many major cities, and set foot in many areas of Blue Wind Nation, and she met him when she stayed in New Moon City. Therefore, she really knows the topography and geographical advantages of these areas. And the Myriad Beast Mountains... that was where they shared adversity and fell in love with each other. There are countless profound beasts there, and they also encountered an extremely vicious band of robbers... and the reason why that band of bandits was able to enter the center of the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range was with the help of a very unique scent of repelling beasts. She must have been inspired by this, thinking of the incense of the beast...

It’s just… My Yue’er, you actually used your thin shoulders to be under the heavy pressure and tyranny of the Divine Phoenix Empire… you fought for the entire Blue Wind Nation for three years…

In the past three years, how much suffering, how much fatigue, how many heartbreaks, how many tears you have to shed...

Yun Che's heart hurt like a knife, he closed his eyes forcefully, and asked in a low voice: "My father...why was assassinated...Isn't there a Tianjian Villa? Divine Phoenix Nation invaded like this, according to the oath of the ancestors, heaven Even if the Sword Villa does not help me, at least I should do my best to protect the life of my father. After all, Tianjian Villa has Mighty Heavenly Sword Region as its backing, and they are on the side to protect the people of the Divine Phoenix Empire. Take my father's life!"

"Heavenly Sword Villa?" Sikongdu gave a disdainful smile: "That's the place I yearn for, but... this Divine Phoenix invasion, not only trampled on our country, but also committed a monstrous crime that people and gods are angry with, and the country will not be the country. Ji, Tianjian Villa not only did not lead the Blue Wind Profound Realm to resist, but instead locked the villa and did not pay attention!!"

"It is rumored that the royal family has asked Tianjian Villa for help nine times, but Tianjian Villa has turned a blind eye, and it is still the same to this day! Hehe... That's right, his Tianjian Villa has a strong strength and background, and the Divine Phoenix Mad Dogs are even connected to the Tianjian Mountain Range. They have never approached. But have they forgotten that they are from the Blue Wind Nation, the land of the Blue Wind Nation is under their feet, and the blood of the Blue Wind Nation is flowing in their bodies! The existence of ... is just a group of cowards who are timid and treacherous! They are not even as good as us!"

"Ah..." Yun Che's teeth were tightly clenched together, almost breaking all of them into pieces.

"The royal family once asked the other five countries for help, but none of those five countries responded... Later, I heard that the Divine Phoenix Dog had signed long-term no-fight pacts with the five countries before they invaded our Blue Wind Nation. "A young man with a serious injury to his right arm said through gritted teeth.

"Now, Blue Wind Imperial City should be about to fall. I just hope... Her Majesty the Queen will escape safely."

"What did you say!?" Yun Che's body suddenly flashed, and he rushed in front of that person in an instant: "Blue Wind Imperial City...fallen?"

Yun Che's expression at the moment was extremely frightening, coupled with his suddenly out of control aura, the young man across from him hurriedly retreated while suffocating, and he said with a terrified face: "We got the news this morning... just yesterday. ...at about this time yesterday, the 700,000-strong Divine Phoenix Army had already entered the Imperial City, and the Divine Phoenix Army in other areas was also gathering in the direction of the Imperial City at full speed... A whole day has passed, I am afraid that the Imperial City already... already..."

As if something exploded in Yun Che's mind, he gritted his teeth and kept his breath: Calm down... Calm down... Calm down! !

Yun Che reached out to the Sky Poison Pearl, took out a dozen pale green medicinal pills, and placed them in Sikong Du's hand: "Senior Brother Sikong, each of you has one of these medicinal pills, it can quickly restore your injuries, and it can also Raise your profound strength by at least one great realm.”

The green medicine pill was very small, but upon smelling its breath, Sikong Du and the others suddenly felt their whole body clear, as if their souls were purified in an instant, and even the bottleneck that had not been broken through for a long time was obviously loosened... It was just the breath, and they instantly believed in shock that the magic of these medicinal pills definitely surpassed any one they had seen in their life, and even far surpassed their cognition.

Sikong Du took it in a bit dazed, and just as he was about to say something, he found that Yun Che had disappeared in front of his eyes... and a violent wind was rapidly leaving.

"Big brother!"

"Let's go!" Number One Under Heaven grabbed Xiao Yun and Number Seven Under Heaven at the same time, his whole body's profound energy surged, chasing after Yun Che.

In a blink of an eye, Yun Che rushed to the distance of ten kilometers, and Yun Che's speed was slightly slow. He called out the Primordial Profound Ark, and entered the profound ark with the number one person in the world. Then, he calculated the approximate direction and distance to Blue Wind Imperial City. In a violent tremor in space, the Primordial Profound Ark tore apart the dimension and disappeared into the space gap.
