Qin Tian consulted everyone’s opinions. They exchanged glances, unable to express their opinions.

Lin Yu spread his hands helplessly, ”I’m unwilling, alas!”

”I am also dissatisfied,” Zhao Lanjin said.

Qin Tian smiled faintly, ”There’s nothing about being satisfied or not. On the battlefield, the situation can change rapidly and the line between victory and defeat is often very thin. Currently, the War God has emerged. To be honest, I don’t know much about his temperament and strength. In this situation, retreating to preserve strength is not a bad strategy.”

Zhou Yang also said, ”Among all of us, Zuo Yuanhao is probably the person who understands the War God the most. Zuo Yuanhao is not someone who fears difficulty, so if he suggests retreating westward, there must be a reason.”

Seeing that both Qin Tian and Zhou Yang were inclined towards this, the others fell silent.

Qin Tian immediately wrote a letter, informing Xu Kuan, Zuo Yuanhao, and Ye Kun, and instructed them to follow Zuo Yuanhao’s plan to retreat westward in three groups.

Zuo Yuanhao personally led the first group of sixty thousand troops from the West Capital, joining the fifty thousand who stayed at the Demon Clan’s Eastern Border, forming an army of one hundred and ten thousand. They crossed the Black Cloud River directly, bypassing the Myriad Demon Mountain Range and heading north.

It was clear that Zuo Yuanhao’s intention was to bypass the Myriad Demon Mountain Range and then attack the Demon Capital from the northeast and southwest.

After waiting for ten days on Qin Tian’s side, Zuo Yuanhao’s army of one hundred and ten thousand had already taken their positions.

And his army of one hundred and sixty thousand was sharpening their blades.

After Qin Tian agreed on the timing with Zuo Yuanhao, they directly advanced towards the Demon Capital!

A total of two hundred and seventy thousand troops advancing from two directions, causing the Yin Yue Demon Venerate inside the Demon Capital City to become utterly flustered and at a loss.

He repeatedly requested assistance from the Elder Council, but after Thunder Supreme explained the situation, they refused to help the Yin Yue Demon Venerate and even scolded him, saying that if it weren’t for their ancestors’ rules, they would have supported Liu Fei’er!

Driven to rage, the Yin Yue Demon Venerate could only organize his forces for a stubborn defense.

Meanwhile, unwilling to give up, he sent requests for reinforcements to the Imperial City, the Demon Clan, and the Barbarian Clan once again.

Unfortunately, aside from the Imperial City, there was no response from the Demon Clan and the Barbarian Clan.

In the Imperial City, the War God came forth and easily pacified the North State.

Upon learning that Qin Tian was preparing to besiege the Demon Clan, the Fourth Prince called the War God back, already preparing the troops to set out for the West State.

At this time, originally, due to the struggle between the Fourth Prince and the Crown Prince, the various lords were having second thoughts. However, the appearance of the War God silenced almost everyone.

In the Imperial Palace, the Crown Prince was temporarily placed under house arrest by the Ice Emperor. Though it was house arrest, it was actually to help him, because if the Crown Prince fell into the hands of the Fourth Prince, his life could be in danger.

Because of the War God’s emergence, the Ice Emperor also sensed a threat.

Back then, they united in rebellion against Long Jun, except for the Ice Emperor, the Martial King, and the War God, who all possessed very formidable strength.

Now the Martial King was gone, the State Preceptor had become a close aide to the Ice Emperor, but the sudden emergence of this War God stirred the Ice Emperor’s suspicions.

Apart from being wary of the War God, the Ice Emperor also feared the War God’s trump card troop—

the Black Hawk Army!

Back then, when the Ice Emperor besieged Long Jun, all the lords supported Long Jun.

Afterward, the Ice Emperor sent the War God to form the Black Hawk Army. The ten thousand strong Black Hawk Army quickly became the Ice Emperor’s core force, leaving no enemy unscathed wherever the Black Hawk banner went! Enemies surrendered at the mere sight of them!

The War God’s name spread far and wide, with even the Demon Clan and Dragon Clan sending envoys to first acknowledge the Ice Emperor as the ruler of the Tianyuan Dynasty.

Afterward, the War God retired, and ten thousand members of the Black Hawk Army became the Forbidden Army, another ten thousand became the Tianyuan Guard, and the rest were disbanded by the War God.

In all these years, the Black Hawk banner had not been seen.

But now, with the War God’s sudden appearance, the Ice Emperor began to suspect that perhaps the Black Hawk Army had never been disbanded by the War God.

In the current court, the Ice Emperor no longer held absolute control, so while handling the Fourth Prince’s ambition, he also secretly deployed troops, wary that someone might rise in rebellion as he once did.

In the Imperial City, with the Crown Prince nearly defeated, the Ice Emperor felt the threat, stirring a fierce power struggle.

And almost exactly as the Ice Emperor suspected, when the War God returned to the Imperial City to prepare for troop assembly to attack the West State, he announced the reformation of the Black Hawk Army!

And remarkably swiftly, within ten days, the Black Hawk Army had formed a ten thousand-strong troop!

Clearly, it was premeditated!

The Ice Emperor felt once again the enormous threat posed by the alliance of the Fourth Prince and the War God!

As the War God was forming the Black Hawk Army, thousands of miles away, Qin Tian, along with Zuo Yuanhao, was besieging the Demon Capital.

Amidst the roaring cannons and rampant True Qi!

The Demon Capital, which hadn’t experienced an attack from foreign forces for decades, found its outer gates unable to withstand the fierce assault of Lin Yu’s True Qi Artillery Troop!

The flag bearing the character ”Qin” roared in, and Duan Xiaodao led the Qin Family Army in a surge, cooperating with Zhao Lanjin’s Flying Beast Soldiers, making it impossible for the garrison of the Demon Capital to resist. Even with two True Qi Cannons, under such a ferocious attack, it was of no avail.

After a continuous high-intensity attack for three days by Qin Tian and Zuo Yuanhao, the entire outer city of the Demon Capital fell, and all the Demon Clan ministers and soldiers retreated to the inner city.

At this point, Liu Fei’er, unable to bear seeing the suffering of the Demon Capital’s civilians, stepped forward to plea, hoping the Yin Yue Demon Venerate would have some compassion and surrender voluntarily.

Liu Fei’er had always had a good reputation among the Demon Clan, being the only daughter of the Demon Emperor, so she garnered much attention from the Demon Clan. Thus, when she spoke, the soldiers of the Demon Clan in the Demon Capital City were moved.

Seeing this, the Yin Yue Demon Venerate, who was already on the brink of rage, killed over five hundred soldiers who privately discussed Liu Fei’er, causing fear to spread within the inner city, making everyone anxious and worried!

”Your Majesty, the Elder Council and the State Preceptor request to see you...”

In the Demon Capital Palace, just after the eunuch reported to the Yin Yue Demon Venerate, the State Preceptor and Thunder Supreme had already entered the hall.

Seeing these two, the Yin Yue Demon Venerate was enraged and sneered, ”Have you come to see me make a fool of myself? Hmph, with the situation developing to this point, the Demon Clan’s civilians are in dire straits. Are you happy now? Do you think that little girl can govern the Demon Clan well? Your inaction is to connive with evil!”

”Insolent!”

Thunder Supreme, temperamental and furious, said, ”You’re incompetent, yet you say we connive with evil? Yin Yue, look at what you’ve turned the Demon Clan into! Do you still have the face to live! I’ve come on behalf of the Elder Council, formally to inform you, for the consideration of the Demon Clan’s civilians, for the unity and strength of the Demon Clan, you should relinquish resistance!”
