People could see a towering, illusory figure resembling Zhao Huai standing between Heaven and Earth.
At this incredible sight, Hu Yunjiao would not miss this opportunity. He immediately stepped forward and loudly addressed the soldiers below:
“The will of our ancestors in Yan Empire has awakened, and the Yan Empire will usher in a new glory. The Xia Country will eventually be overthrown by us!”
“Destroy Xia Country!”
“Long live the Crown Prince!”
The people below responded in unison, their expressions excited.
Still in the ancestral hall, Zhao Huai held the Reincarnation Treasured Mirror, looking at the illusion above his head.
He never expected that the will of the Late Emperor in the ancestral hall would actually allow him to conjure such a vision again.
This illusion looked just like him.
Could it really be the divine intervention of his ancestors?
He looked at the Reincarnation Treasured Mirror in his hand, deep in thought.
At this time, Hu Yunjiao bowed his fist at the door and said:
“Your Highness, the ancestor-worshipping ceremony has been completed, and we can head north.”
In his view, this ancestor-worshipping ceremony was very successful, and it was originally set up for the preparations of their northern expedition.
Right now, with the high morale, it was the best time to attack.
After a while, the illusion slowly dissipated, and Zhao Huai walked out of the ancestral hall and looked at the people below. He calmly said:
“Let’s go.”Folloow current novÊls on nov3lb((in).(com)
After the order was issued, the Yan Empire’s army moved as one.
Exiting Nanyu Prefecture in a mighty procession, they advanced towards the North.
On the march.
Zhao Huai calmly said, “No matter what your purpose is, as long as the Yan Empire unifies the human world, I will not treat you unfairly. High-ranking officials and generous rewards, as well as meritorious titles, are not a problem. In some ways, you are not my subordinate but rather an equal, more like a friend. Actually, you don’t need to kneel or bow to me if you don’t want to. As a free person, you don’t have so many constraints. It’s just that the current affairs of the Yan Empire need your attention.”
“What I want is...” Yin Nanyu clenched her teeth secretly, feeling unhappy deep down.
But after a pause, she looked into Zhao Huai’s eyes, knowing that it wasn’t the time to reveal her cards. Her gaze softened and she sighed, “Is your heart made of iron, Young Master? It might be too cold.”
She couldn’t afford to turn against him just yet.
Otherwise, everything she had done so far would be in vain.
To replace that woman in his heart, she had to make Zhao Huai realize her value and that he couldn’t get by without her.
With that in mind, how far could the national fortune of the Yan Empire be from her?
What of that woman in his heart, the Exquisite Fairy? How could she be a match for Yin Nanyu?
“I hope the Young Master will give me a commitment,” Yin Nanyu said.
“Go ahead.”
“If I help the Yan Empire successfully unify, I want to become a member of the royal family. You should know what that means.” Yin Nanyu’s beautiful eyes gazed closely at Zhao Huai’s face, speaking earnestly.
“By that time, the Yan Empire will owe you part of its success. It’s not an unreasonable request, and I can agree to it,” Zhao Huai responded, acknowledging her hidden intentions with a serious tone.
Receiving his promise, Yin Nanyu’s face showed a satisfied expression.
“Your Highness, there is a large army ahead that doesn’t appear to be from the Xia.”
At this time, Hu Yunjiao’s voice rang out.
Hearing the sound, Zhao Huai breathed a sigh of relief.
Stepping out of the dragon carriage, he looked at the vast expanse before him, feeling the rumbling vibrations. An army appeared through the yellow sand.
The black-armored wolf cavalry wore impenetrable iron helmets and were fully wrapped in armor. Even the black wolves they rode were armored.
“It’s the Iron Slaughter of the Northern Wolf Empire.”
Having recognized the appearance of the army ahead, Hu Yunjiao was astonished.
He had also guarded the northern border before and witnessed the power of the Iron Slaughter of the Northern Wolf Empire.
The Iron Slaughter was a heavily armored cavalry, and their armor was thick and made of unique materials. Most qi-refining cultivators couldn’t injure them..
