Dragon God Supreme

Chapter 87: Chapter 087: Submission

The news of Wuji Palace’s tragic demise at the hands of the Black Flag Army and Sky Shadow’s fire cavalry spread like wildfire.

Like a plague, it brought terror to all who heard it.

The various powers of Yunzhou became increasingly panicked, fearing that the Empire’s iron hooves might next fall upon their own gates.

By now, many high-ranking officials from these powers had frantically made their way to Tiandu, unable to bear the torment of this fear any longer.

Wherever the sound of iron hooves traveled, countless cultivators were struck with terror.

The existence of the Black Flag Army and Sky Shadow’s fire cavalry was like that of vicious wolves in the deep forests and wildlands, fiercely brutal.

...

“Brother Feng, if we could give the ‘Supreme’ physique and instant movement to the Empire’s soldiers, our Empire would surely dominate over other empires!” Liu Qingyang suddenly spoke up, deeply moved by the might of the elite soldiers he had witnessed.

“This must be Brother Liu Qingyang. I’ve heard about you from Leng Mucheng. Brother Qingyang is right, and the Great General is already training another batch of soldiers, just like the Grand Commander trained us. Soon, we will bolster the ranks of the Black Flag Army and Sky Shadow’s fire cavalry,” Huanyang said with a smile.

Feng Wuchen nodded and smiled, “I knew the Great General would do this, to think he’d be a quiet commander is impossible. He feels uncomfortable all over if he doesn’t spend a day training the soldiers of the Empire.”

“Haha!” The soldiers all burst into loud laughter.

Within the Empire, perhaps only Feng Wuchen dared to joke about Ye Cangqiong—no one else would dare.

The great army raced past, the massive sound of iron hooves like an earthquake shaking the mountains.

“The Empire’s Black Flag Army! And Sky Shadow’s fire cavalry!”

“They’re going in the direction of Huang Yun Sect! Huang Yun Sect is done for!”

Many cultivators were scared out of their wits, totally intimidated by the murderous aura and momentum of the elite soldiers.

After an hour, the Black Flag Army and Sky Shadow’s fire cavalry led by Feng Wuchen had already set foot on the mountain range where Huang Yun Sect was located.

The sound of iron hooves lingered in the mountains, immense and thunderous, causing birds and beasts to scatter in panic.

“Sky Shadow’s fire cavalry is here!” Inside Huang Yun Sect, the disciples were panic-stricken, the more cowardly ones had already fled down the mountain.

“We’re doomed! We’re all dead once Sky Shadow’s fire cavalry arrives!”

“Sect Master! Elders! The Empire’s Sky Shadow’s fire cavalry is here!”

“Let’s escape for our lives.”

Huang Yun Sect was in utter disarray, with cries of terror resounding everywhere.

In the great hall, the Sect Master and the elders of Huang Yun Sect were all faces of despair and fear, knowing that it was all too late and regret was useless.

Feng Wuchen charged into Huang Yun Sect on his warhorse, scaring all the disciples into panicked retreat.

Sky Shadow’s fire cavalry and the Black Flag Army swiftly surrounded Huang Yun Sect, terrifying the disciples who had thought of fleeing such that they didn’t dare to move.

“Greetings, Grand Commander!” The Sect Master and elders of Huang Yun Sect knelt one after another.

“Sect Master of Huang Yun Sect, what do you have to say?” Feng Wuchen, seated high on his warhorse, asked from above, his voice cold as ice.

“This lowly one has nothing to say. I don’t ask the Grand Commander for forgiveness, I only ask you to spare the disciples of Huang Yun Sect,” pleaded the Sect Master, his face haggard.

“How dare you! Assassinate the Grand Commander, an unforgivable crime! And still you beg for mercy!” Huanyang shouted fiercely.

“Grand Commander, spare our lives!” The disciples knelt and begged for mercy en masse, all crying in panic.

Feng Wuchen spoke indifferently, “What kind of person do you think I am? Kind? Or broad-minded?”

Upon hearing this, the Sect Master and all the disciples of Huang Yun Sect’s faces changed drastically!

“Assassinate the Grand Commander! An unforgivable crime! Soldiers, by my command, wipe out Huang Yun Sect! Leave none alive!” Catching Feng Wuchen’s drift, Huanyang acted decisively.

“Kill!” The soldiers of Sky Shadow’s fire cavalry and the Black Flag Army roared, their voices thunderous and their terrifying killing intent caused the disciples of Huang Yun Sect to scatter in terror.

“Spare the female disciples from death,” Feng Wuchen, upon inadvertently spotting a few female disciples with faces pale from fear, quickly added.

“Yes!” The soldiers responded in unison.

A frenzied massacre ensued, with the soldiers showing no mercy, the square littered with bodies and blood flowing like rivers, while a heavy stench of blood pervaded the entirety of Huang Yun Sect.

In a matter of minutes, the two hundred or so people of Huang Yun Sect were all slaughtered, leaving only four female disciples alive.

“Tha…thank you, Grand Commander, for…for not killing us,” the female disciples thanked him, terror-stricken and kneeling.

“Leave the mountain,” Feng Wuchen said indifferently, riding away on his warhorse, followed by his soldiers.

Wuji Palace and Huang Yun Sect had been thoroughly obliterated in Yunzhou, and news of the destruction of Huang Yun Sect spread just as quickly.

The fall of Wuji Palace and Huang Yun Sect served as a chilling warning to others.

The higher-ups of various powers in Yunzhou were terrified, with many having already made their way to Tiandu.

At this moment, Tiandu’s square was filled with over a hundred people kneeling, daring not to move or speak, left to suffer under the harsh sun!

Ling Zhantian and a dozen other generals were dispersed across Yunzhou, conveying orders.

“The Great General decrees! All powers of Yunzhou must immediately head to Tiandu! Those who disobey shall be put to death!”

In various places across Yunzhou, the same command was broadcast!

Those who had not yet made their way to Tiandu were now rushing there as fast as they could, not daring to delay in the slightest!

No matter how strong they were, they did not dare to disdain the Empire’s number one Great General, nor dare to make an enemy of the Empire!

The high-ranking officials of major powers like Xuantian Sect, Burn Heaven Valley, and Tianxu Palace in Yunzhou, even the strongest among them, Mu Tianyun, did not dare to look down upon the Great General!

When the Sky Shadow Cavalry led by Feng Wuchen and the Black Flag Army returned to Tiandu, the news of the destruction of the Huang Yun Sect had already spread like wildfire throughout Yunzhou.

“Greetings, Grand Commander!” As Feng Wuchen entered the main city of Tiandu, Ye Cangqiong along with more than a dozen generals and high-ranking members of the various powers of Yunzhou paid their respects one after another.

The appearance of Feng Wuchen caused great panic among the upper echelons of the various powers; they didn’t dare to raise their heads.

News of the bloodbath at Wuji Palace and Huang Yun Sect had already reached Tiandu, and everyone was afraid that their sect would be next.

“Big brother Feng, the strongmen from all major powers in Yunzhou have all come.” Liu Qingyang said in surprise.

Miao Qingqing added, “And the Xuantian Sect!”

Feng Wuchen was quite surprised himself; he hadn’t expected that the upper echelons of all major powers in Yunzhou would actually come to Tiandu.

“Grand Commander, it seems they’ve all been scared out of their wits,” a soldier sneered.

Feng Wuchen dismounted, and the soldiers all followed suit.

With every step Feng Wuchen took, panic grew within the hearts of the various powers’ upper ranks.

“Burn Heaven Valley, Tianxu Palace, Taiyong City, Seven Stars Valley, Tian Luo Sect…” Feng Wuchen named each power one by one, and as he did, the high-ranking members of each power couldn’t help but tremble.

As for Xuantian Sect, the auction house, and Luan Tian City, Feng Wuchen didn’t name them because he knew they would never dare to be enemies with him.

“You coming to Tiandu truly is a surprise to me,” Feng Wuchen said indifferently.

“Grand Commander, the Tian Luo Sect wishes to submit!” The leader of the Tian Luo Sect was the first to submit, knocking his head on the ground.

“Tianxu Palace also wishes to submit to the Grand Commander and is at your disposal!” Tianxu Palace promptly submitted as well.

“Seven Stars Valley is also willing to submit without any second thoughts!”

Medium-strength powers all knelt and submitted—they simply couldn’t withstand the wrath of Feng Wuchen.

“Grand Commander, we were really confused, we shouldn’t have…” At that moment, a leader of a power said in terror, but before he could finish his sentence, he would never be able to speak in this life again.

As he began to speak, Huanyang’s spear had already pierced his chest!

Huanyang said coldly, “Any sect that participated in the assassination attempt on the Grand Commander—if found guilty, death!”

“Hiss hiss hiss!”

Along with that leader, the high-ranking members with him were also successively slain by Huanyang without mercy!

Huanyang’s ruthlessness terrified the high-ranking members of all major powers, turning them pale.

“Among you, there are still quite a few powers that have sent people to assassinate the Grand Commander. Although we don’t know which powers they are at the moment, we will find out,” a general said coldly.

“We are willing to submit to the Grand Commander! We have no second thoughts!” The other powers and major families all knelt and submitted.

“Su Yuanshan, I heard that a disciple of Burn Heaven Valley, Lin Yunchong, tried to assassinate the Grand Commander. I wonder if this was your arrangement or who else’s order?” Ye Cangqiong’s cold gaze swept towards Su Yuanshan as he asked harshly.

Su Yuanshan’s complexion changed dramatically, his heart filled with terror as he hurriedly said, “Great General, Lin Yunchong’s assassination of the Grand Commander was not our doing. He wanted to avenge his brother, and when we couldn’t stop him, we expelled him from the sect. Please, Grand Commander, see the truth!”

“Hmph! It seems you didn’t plan to stop him at all!” Ye Cangqiong barked angrily.

“This subject wouldn’t dare.” While Su Yuanshan wasn’t the Valley Master of Burn Heaven Valley, facing Ye Cangqiong, he didn’t dare show any disrespect.

Had it been other officials, Su Yuanshan might not have taken them seriously!

“Su Yuanshan, kneel and submit!” Huanyang said coldly, his spear pointed at Su Yuanshan, suggesting that if Su Yuanshan didn’t submit, he would be killed on the spot!

Even if Huanyang was no match for Su Yuanshan, the latter likely wouldn’t dare to strike back!

If Su Yuanshan made a move, his death was certain!

“Burn Heaven Valley is willing to submit to the Grand Commander!” After a long struggle, Su Yuanshan finally opened his mouth reluctantly.

The situation was stronger than the man; Su Yuanshan had no choice—the consequences of not submitting were too great for him to bear!

“Rise, all of you,” Feng Wuchen said faintly.

“Thank you, Grand Commander!” Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, as if they had just walked through the gates of hell, their backs already drenched with cold sweat.

“At least you recognize what’s good for you!” At this moment, an old and cold huffing sound came!

“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”

Two figures arrived at a terrifying speed, and in the blink of an eye, they were beside Feng Wuchen.

The arrivals were the State Preceptor and the prince of the Empire!

“State Preceptor and the prince!” Upon seeing the two figures, the high echelon of the major powers almost fainted from fright.

Liu Qingyang felt like he was about to collapse.

Feng Wuchen was even more surprised; Ye Cangqiong coming to Yunzhou was already surprising enough, but he hadn’t expected the State Preceptor and the prince to visit Yunzhou as well.

“Greetings, State Preceptor! Greetings, prince!” Everyone knelt and paid their respects.

“Greetings, Master!” Ignoring everyone else, the two elders knelt on one knee towards Feng Wuchen, with the State Preceptor directly calling him Master.

The State Preceptor was an old fox; he didn’t care whether Feng Wuchen accepted him as a disciple or not. He made his move first to influence the others, at least letting everyone know that he considered himself a disciple of Feng Wuchen!

Feng Wuchen was helplessly resigned; he knew exactly what the State Preceptor’s intention was—now he couldn’t refuse even if he wanted to.

“Master?” This was a bombshell; the title from the two elders shocked everyone at the scene, their hearts almost leaping out of their chests!

Feng Wuchen was actually the Master of the State Preceptor and the prince!
