Bombarding Cultivators with Cluster Artillery

Demon Leaf King stayed in the Moye Family Ancestral Hall, with a divided spirit statue prepared for emergencies, but it unexpectedly self-destructed.

Although the Body Cultivation and Divine Soul have never been his strengths, merely mediocre, for it to self-destruct without any attack is truly dumbfounding.

”Demon Leaf King, your Dao Heart, is truly without equal...”

Jiang Ding curled his lips.

Without further delay, the silhouette of the Blood-robed Taoist slowly disappeared from sight.

He needed to assess the situation.

Mainly to see whether the monarchs under Cangkong Imperial Child’s command would send reinforcements; if not, he would clean out the remaining two families of the Magic Vine Minor Realm.

If they did respond, then it was a matter of seeing how many.

If few, fight; if many, flee.

In this world without opportunities, one must seek opportunities in another world.

That’s all there is to it, plain and simple, no earth-shattering strategies.

...

”Ah!”

”Blood River King! You wretched slave!”

In the Pink Imperial Palace, Demon Leaf King suddenly spat out blood, staggering backward, with blood-red crazed eyes: ”I will have you cut into a thousand pieces, extract your Divine Soul, set it atop the poison vines, and have it scorched by poison fire for ten thousand years!”

”As long as the Moye Family endures, your agony and torment shall be endless!”

The surrounding monarchs were shocked, turning their eyes in this direction.

This was the Pink Imperial Palace within the Flower Cloud Minor Realm, which Cangkong Imperial Child occupied and used as a temporary base. He had gathered numerous monarchs here to discuss strategic plans for the upcoming campaign.

The sudden transformation of Demon Leaf King caught the attention of all monarchs, leading some to suspect he was under some sort of remote curse.

”What happened, Demon Leaf?”

Demon Leaf King’s good friend, also one of the three families of the Magic Vine, the Devil Flower King, a dazzling one-horned beauty, immediately helped him up, asking with concern.

”My family!”

”My family!”

Tears welled in the eyes of Demon Leaf King, unabashed and streaming down his face.

He pushed away Devil Flower King and walked up to the throne of Cangkong Imperial Child at the very front, collapsing to his knees: ”Imperial Child, I beg you to seek justice for me!”

”My Moye Family, we are descendants of a Great Emperor too; it would be one thing to be defeated.”

”But this should not be the consequence!”

Demon Leaf King’s forehead repeatedly struck the ground, even abandoning the protection of his Mana and bodily strength, allowing his brow to be smashed to a bloody pulp, blood splattering everywhere, desperately pleading non-stop.

”Demon Leaf King, speak.”

”I am listening.”

A heavy feeling settled in the heart of Cangkong Imperial Child; he had a bad premonition.

There weren’t many things that could drive a monarch to such a state.

Even dying on the battlefield might not lead to this.

The surrounding monarchs were all exceedingly astute, similarly making speculations, their expressions changed, and many immediately began contacting their Family Ancestral Halls to check on their families’ well-being.

”Imperial Child!”

”My family, the Moye Family...”

The voice of Demon Leaf King was filled with wretchedness and despair, and endless hatred: ”My family, my children, all killed by this slave, Blood River King!”

”My family, while I was away, this mongrel, this vile Slave King, he slaughtered the entire Moye clan!”

”A mere slave!”

”To eradicate an Imperial Family!”

”Apart from the ancient times when Imperial Clans fought for the title of the Sovereign of Realms, when did any Slave Clan ever eradicate an Imperial Family?”

Boom!

The voice of Demon Leaf King made the surrounding monarchs buzz with noise, chaotic like a bustling tavern.

”Utterly audacious!”

”Ridiculous audacity...”

Many kings boiled with rage, infuriated beyond belief, unwilling to accept this truth.

Now, even the slowest king was shaken deep in his heart, immediately contacting his family. After receiving a reassuring response, a sense of strong urgency quickly surged forth.

That lowly servant, that Blood River King, if he could breach the Moye Family, then he could do the same to their families!

At this moment, many kings couldn’t stay seated any longer, their looks towards Cangkong Imperial Child tinged with impatience.

”Yanliu Imperial Child, how dare he be so bold?”

A sense of foreboding in Cangkong Imperial Child’s heart became reality, his Lake of Heart equally disturbed.

He soon felt a mix of helplessness and anger.

The battle of the imperial children; his many strategists had already clearly explained all the possible situations, without an ounce of fog, perfectly clear.

At this stage of the battle, both sides’ strengths were fully apparent.

Yanliu Imperial Child was weak in military strength, with no chance of victory on the battlefield, hence countless strategists advised Cangkong Imperial Child to disregard any of Yanliu Imperial Child’s diversions. ”We need only push straight through with our grand forces, crushing everything in our path.

If Yanliu Imperial Child retreats, we’ll advance.

They keep retreating; we’ll keep advancing!

Until Yanliu Imperial Child has no Minor Thousand Worlds left to lose, with nowhere to retreat, forced to wander outside the Minor Thousand World, constantly depleting his Mana and Qi in the Youming Void, with his strength diminishing every moment.

At that time, Cangkong’s grand army, resting in the Minor Thousand World, needn’t chase after anything; they need only wait quietly for a few hundred years, and Yanliu Imperial Child will die on his own.

This is an assured path to victory, without any risk.

Cangkong Imperial Child approved of this strategy. The assembly of many kings today was for this very reason.

He was mentally prepared and had considered that Yanliu Imperial Child would resort to all sorts of tactics:

It could be to sow discord between him and the Imperial Guards.

After all, he was not the true direct descendant of Ancient Emperor Cangyan; the son of Ancient Emperor Cangyan was not him, and it was not certain that the Imperial Guards would always stand with him. Should they face pressure from the son of Ancient Emperor Cangyan, they might very well switch sides.

Perhaps Yanliu Imperial Child would have the Flame Stone Great Emperor interfere with the battlefield;

Or set up a malicious Poison Array, or perhaps the kings of the Flame Stone Family would turn their backs again...

Cangkong Imperial Child had thought of all these scenarios beforehand and had detailed preparations, confident he could handle them, and like chasing prey, could incessantly drive Yanliu Imperial Child into a corner.

However, Cangkong Imperial Child never anticipated that Yanliu Imperial Child would be so merciless.

To actually annihilate an entire family!

All the prior preparations seemed futile in an instant.

”Imperial Child!”

”Imperial Child!”

”We implore you to administer justice...”

Numerous kings stepped forward, no longer silent, no longer selfishly cautious. Even former enemies of the Moye Family came forth, and even many kings from the Imperial Guards could no longer tolerate the desecration of the Imperial Clan’s honor.

The trend was set.

The trend was set.

The trend, irresistible.

Cangkong Imperial Child let out a long sigh in his heart.

The most correct course of action was undoubtedly to push forward without heed for what was behind, a sure victory without any risks.

But would those kings be willing to risk the annihilation of their families to follow him?

Even the Imperial Guard Monarchs brought from the Cangyan Ancient Emperor Family would have objections!

The Imperial Guard Monarchs also belonged to the Horned Demon Imperial Clan, with widespread relations. Many among them had matrimonial ties to various families of the Flame Stone Star Domain, or they were simply different branches of the same family.

Under such circumstances, it was impossible for them to abandon their familial rear and follow Cangkong Imperial Child.

”Marshal troops immediately, follow me, slay the Slave.”

”If this Slave is not beheaded, I would rather let the imperial crown fall to the ground and be forever barred from ascending to Great Emperor!”

Cangkong Imperial Child closed his eyes slightly, opened them again, and declared with a fierce tone.

”Imperial Child is sagacious!”

Many kings of the Horned Demon Imperial Clan were sincerely convinced, kneeling on one knee, expressing a higher level of loyalty to the Imperial Child.
