Chapter 252: Lu Changsheng: We Are Done For…
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
A Realm war was a war between two Realms.
The amount of resources and manpower required for a war of this scale was astronomical.
It could be said that wars between Realms wouldn’t be easily triggered.
Once triggered, it would be a life-or-death battle, the resources and manpower lost would be unbearable.
Just like the Wilderness Region in the previous battle.
Even though it prevented the continent from being directly destroyed, it also caused the cultivation to regress tens of thousands of years!
So much so that no Martial Monarch Realm expert had been born from then till now!
But now…
Many factions gathered in Cloud Phoenix City, the capital city of the Cloud Phoenix Empire.
In the center of Cloud Phoenix City were many tall cities which surrounded a tall and beautiful castle in the center!
It was actually floating in midair!
This was one of the national treasures of the Cloud Phoenix Empire.
The Floating City was a Peak Stage Heaven Realm defensive treasure!
There were also array formations amongst them.
It could be said that its defense was infinitely close to the Spirit Treasure level.
This floating city was Hong Ying’s current imperial palace.
The meeting venue was in a side hall of Floating City.
Many Sect Masters and Family Heads of various factions were already gathered here!
Among them was the Dean of the Hidden Dao Academy, Dean Yan.
The Hidden Sword Sect’s Sect Master, Lin Rufeng
The Sect Master of the Alchemy Sect, Geng Chun.
The Sect Master of the Sky Formation Sect, Yun Zhonghe.
The head of the Mu family, Mu Heze.
The head of the Li family.
The fact that these six people could gather together was enough to shock everyone.
They were the six giants of the Central Region after all!
Originally, there was still the Murong clan.
However, the Murong family had disappeared without a trace.
The resources under them were also coveted.
It could be said that the Murong family only existed in name.
Hong Ying was dressed in a red robe and was covered in golden armor that made her look heroic!
There was a red flame mark between her eyebrows on her beautiful face.
It made people feel that she was beautiful.
Behind Hong Ying was Ye Qiubai and Ning Chenxin!
They represented Green Cloud Sword Ancestor and Study Room respectively.
In the side hall, the atmosphere was tense.
Everyone’s faces were either solemn or terrified. At the same time, some people had calm expressions.
Dean Yan said solemnly, “The news has been confirmed. I’m afraid that in three days, the outer region army will arrive at the Heavenly Road.”
“What’s the plan?”
Everyone turned to look at Hong Ying after saying this.
Hong Ying was the Empress of the Cloud Phoenix after all. She had already interacted with people from other regions as the Cloud Phoenix Empress so she would definitely have some understanding.
Seeing this, Hong Ying said softly, “Wait.”
There was only one word from her.
Wait?
Waiting for what?
Could they be able to deal with the people from the outer regions?
Ye Qiubai and Ning Chenxin looked at each other and smiled. Only they knew the meaning of Hong Ying’s words!
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn…
Qin Tiannan was the first to enter the side hall.
Everyone looked over.
Wai ting for him ?
Was she waiting for the principal of the Southern Region’s Hidden Dao
Academy, Qin Tiannan?
What was the point of this?
Even though he was the head of a school, his strength was among the people in the side hall.
He wasn’t strong enough…
A young man slowly walked in behind Qin Tiannan with an unruly expression. When Hong Ying and the other two saw the man, they couldn’t help but smile. Director Yan and Lin Rufeng also understood what Hong Ying meant by “waiting”.
If it was this person, he was indeed worthy of the word “waiting”.
That was right. It was Lu Changsheng.
This was Lu Changsheng’s first appearance in public. No one else knew him other than Dean Yan.
“Who’s the person behind Qin Tiannan?”
“He’s Qin Tiannan’s disciple?”
“Isn’t Qin Tiannan’s disciple Huang Yuan? Could he have taken in another disciple?”
However, at this point, he was just a “junior” that no one knew so he would not receive much attention.
However, Hong Ying and the other two bowed at the same time.
“Master.”
Everyone was shocked.
The young man in front of them was the owner of the Cottage?
The one that had trained such a monster, and was even the master of the Cloud Phoenix Empress?
At this moment, everyone’s disdainful gazes disappeared.
The Cottage was a well-known faction.
Even though there were only a few of them in the sect, everyone had made a name for themselves.
They all had the strength to resist or even crush Void God Realm experts!
How could someone who could nurture such a disciple be an ordinary person?
Even Dean Yan and Lin Rufeng bowed to Lu Changsheng.
It was a show of respect!
They knew Lu Changsheng’s strength after all, even if they only knew the tip of the iceberg…
Lin Rufeng walked past Hong Ying and asked respectfully, “Senior, you should know the whole story, right?”
Lu Changsheng nodded.
“Senior, do you have any plans?”
Lu Changsheng didn’t want to stand out. He just wanted to help. However, the other party had pushed him up.
Even Hong Ying didn’t mind and looked at him expectantly, obviously, also wanting Lu Changsheng to come up with a plan.
Seeing this, Lu Changsheng had no choice but to say, “Don’t worry. Let’s prepare our forces first.”
“However, it’s estimated that the other party’s entire army will reach the
Heavenly Road in three days.”
“How should we deal with them if we don’t hurry up?”
The person who spoke was also a first-rate faction of the Northern Region.
The other party’s face was filled with mixed emotions.
Hong Ying looked over with dissatisfaction.
It was obvious that the other party’s tone made Hong Ying very dissatisfied.
That person also knew the disrespect in his tone and quickly apologized. “I’m sorry, I was too anxious.”
Lu Changsheng didn’t mind. The other party didn’t say anything inappropriate.
He waved his hand and said, “It’s a big deal after all.”
Mu Heze smiled and said, “Senior is so magnanimous.”
Lu Changsheng didn’t smile outwardly, but he was overjoyed.
It is finally done!
However, he remained calm on the surface and said, “I have already set up an array formation on the Heavenly Road.”
Huh???
Formation????
When?
Everyone was stunned.
Even Ye Qiubai and the other two looked puzzled.
Lu Changsheng explained everything.
Of course, he skipped the part about the Heart of the Realm.
“Thus, those spirit formations should be able to stop them for some time and wear them down a little bit.”
Lin Rufeng asked, “How long can it stop them?”
Lu Changsheng thought for a moment/
He didn’t know either!
It would affect their morale if it was too short a period.
Morale was one of the most important factors in war.
Yet, it might lead to a calamity if it was too long a period too.
Lu Changsheng looked around.
Everyone had a look of trust in their eyes.
It was hard to say that he didn’t know!
He could only bite the bullet and say, “About… half a month!”
He would set up a few more array formations later if it failed!
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they heard this answer.. Half a month was enough for them to gather the power of the continent!
