Immortal God Emperor Imperial God Emperor Chapter 431

    In the next couple of days, the silver light released from within the [Light Palace] became much more frequent.

    A silver radiance like that of moonlight encircled around the entire stone palace during the night but not releasing. Every time it would last for a brief moment, before gradually disappearing.

    Such a strange scene attracted the attention of many people.

    But Ye Qingyu still had no way of departing from the [Light Palace].

    In the blink of an eye, another month had pa.s.sed by.

    It was already the end of summer.

    Gao Han would still report on the news that he had gathered regarding matters occurring outside and inside the empire. He would come to report every morning as Ye Qingyu gave advice on the cultivation of Bai Yuanxing and the others. Although it was not very detailed, but it was still enough to allow Ye Qingyu to understand what was currently occurring outside.

    It was the same as many peoples worst expectations. The army of the White Mountain Black Water Brute Race ultimately was able to pa.s.s through the Mountain Sea Pa.s.s and invade straight through. In one go, it had reached the heart of the three great provinces of the North East.

    After losing the restriction of the ground of the pa.s.s, after losing the aid of the experienced [Whip of the Thunder Deity] that had longed battled with the White Mountain Black Water Brute Race, the situation turned for the worse. The troops of the three major provinces had not experienced battle and had long been used to idleness. Although they had previously been gathered and trained, but they were still not the opponents of the soldiers of the Brute Race. They could not even be compared to a rabble, nearly collapsing at the sign of a first contact. In an instant, they had invaded over a thousand miles. Without even time for the second wave of military reinforcements from the Empire to come, they had already lost over seventy percent of the territory of the great regions.

    The normal state of the peace caused the army of the empire, apart from the major armies who were stationed at the borders and constantly fought with the outside enemies, to become unprepared. It had caused the soldiers of the great cities, the provincial troops to lose their sense of cautiousness. Their discipline was a mess, and leaders.h.i.+p was not clear. The previous iron bloodedness when Snow Empire was founded was already lost, they basically had no battle ability.

    The current situation of the three great provinces in the North East was like fire and water.

    Countless people of the Human Race were slaughtered, forced into slavery or eaten. Either they were killed and eaten, or they were sent deep within the White Mountain Black Water to be an eternal slave, living a state of life worse than death...

    According to the news coming from the flying patrolling s.h.i.+ps of the empire, as they surveyed from high above, the originally rich and wealthy three great provinces were now just pure earth for tens of thousands miles. Bones lay in the wild, blood seeped into the water, and less than fifty cities remained out of hundreds of major human cities under the constant invasion of the Brute Race. And these cities could fall at any moment.

    The important figures of the empire argued for over three months of time, before finally reaching an agreement to form reinforcements. They had only just began heading towards the three great provinces.

    Apart from the matters in the North East, the matters on the North West as well as the South were also a complete defeat.

    The humongous ent.i.ty that was the Snow Empire that had ran rampant over Heaven Wasteland Domain was the most wealthy and glorious area for a hundred years. However it seemed to become unbelievably weak and fragile in the pa.s.sing of a single night. Previously, it had suppressed the alien races from all sides so much that they could not breathe, but right now, it was Snow Empire itself which could not catch its breath without needing for anyone to bully it.

    Gao Han reported back to Ye Qingyu everyday with information from all directions. At the beginning, he was somewhat normal, but in the later stages, his expression became more and more serious. When he mentioned the other races, there was a coldness emitting from his teeth that was like real, his face a complete expression of someone who could not wait to rush to the  battlefield to do battle.

    Ye Qingyu was also of such a temperament.

    But very evidently, under such a situation that was like a flood, if one was not an Extreme Level expert, the power of an individual person would not be able to alter the flow.

    In the blink of an eye, another three months pa.s.sed by.

    The time neared the end of autumn.

    For the entire empire, this was unquestionably an incomparably hard year.

    The three great provinces in the North East had basically fallen.

    The second wave of reinforcements sent out by the military department of the empire had been completely lost in the battle of the Huge Dragon Valley. They had lost the power of millions of troops, with the death of thousands of Bitter Sea stage experts .Three Imperial Gongfengs died in battle, and tens of Dragon cla.s.s wars.h.i.+ps were lost. there were also the countless losses of normal airs.h.i.+ps, military resources and military tools…

    The [Berserk Horned Army] that consisted of the elite troops of the White Mountain Black Water Brute Race moved with irresistible force. They were less than ten thousand miles away from the capital.

    In the south.

    As the torrential rainstorms of spring and summer came, the water level of the south rapidly rose. This was extremely suited for the activities of the Water Demon army. The water demons of the Hurricane Wave Demon Court madly attacked. When it was autumn, the camps above water of the water army of the military had already been largely destroyed. Their lines were forced to retreat a hundred thousand miles backward, with the vanguard of the water army even unable to maintain its organizational structure due to the losses it had sustained. It's battle power had been cut in half. Although there were reinforcements, but these were inexperienced soldiers, so they could not reverse the tides when facing the attack of the Water Demon army.

    The situation in the North West and North were also exactly like so.

    It was as if the major races had reached some sort of agreement beforehand. They began madly attacking without paying attention to the consequences. They purely relied on the advantage of numbers, to wear down the armies of the Human Race. Even the elite troops of the West Boulder Army were also being worn down by this and forced to retreat.

    Only the Youyan army of the Youyan Pa.s.s was like a steel wall. It completely forced the army of the Snow Ground Demon Court to be where it was, firmly controlling Youyan Pa.s.s.

    But this did not have too great an effect.

    The White Mountain Black Water which had entered deep into human territory was not as stupid as the Human Race had imagined. They began displaying extremely high military strategy. They began coordinating with other parties, and formed a branch of Brute army that faintly seemed to head towards the direction of Youyan Pa.s.s to form an offensive.

    In this period of time, everyone within the Empire was fearful.

    Even in the world of the sects, there were all sorts of turbulence brewing.

    Heroes were born from times of turmoil.

    As the Human Race was placed into danger, the names of countless people began flickering in the skies of history. Some were experts that were already famous officers, while some where characters that had never been heard of or seen before. They displayed a peerless radiance, giving the citizens of the Human Race courage and hope.

    The Dragon Saint Child of the Dragon Tiger Sect went deep into the South Water Demon area and killed eighteen famous Water Demon commanders...

    The successor of the Matchless Blade City, Qin Zhishui, killed two Brute Race officers that were competing as to who would be the first to kill ten thousand humans amongst an army of millions. He hung their heads upon the flag of the Brute army, then left unharmed...

    In the Green Cloud City, a minor officer that had been previously unnoticed, in a battle to guard the city, with a throw of his spear from a distance of thousands of meters, managed to pierce the main commander of the Brute army onto the back of the battle beasts. The name of the [Piecing Spear Immortal] Yue Lei, began resounding through the North East provinces... 

    The Guerilla warfare officer of the Vanguard in Youyan Pa.s.s, Liu Zongyuan, consecutively fought and killed sixty-seven famed demon officers. The name of the [Demon Butcher] began resounding throughout the entire Snow Ground Demon Court.

    As the young commander of the Youyan Pa.s.s, Ye Congyun led the army personally from the Youyan mountains. They entered deep into demon territory, and destroyed camps that had been set up by the Demon Race for eight hundred miles, killing two Princes of the Snow Ground Demon Court. They managed to rout the elite scouts the [Snow Wolves Platoon] that was famed in the Snow Ground Demon Court. They ran rampant for tens of days, before miraculously returning to Youyan Pa.s.s.

    The [Silver Eagle] was like the wind of the  [Thirteen b.l.o.o.d.y Eagles] of the Right Minister. He entered deep within the desert and managed to a.s.sa.s.sinate a sc.u.m of the sects that had betrayed the Human Race amongst the Brute Race of the deserts and bring his head back. He hung hiss head on the western gate of the capital, causing those who had intentions of betraying the Human Race to s.h.i.+ver in fear...

    The iron bloodedness and scorching fire of warfare was enough to cause heroics to be invoked to its extreme.

    It was not only the Human Race where a large group of heroes and genius experts that began appearing. Amongst the Demon Race and Brute Race, there were also some startling geniuses that began to appear.

    The [Little Brute King] of the Brute Race of the desert, Gu Zhen, the successor of the number one martial holy place of the great desert, the [Western Divine Palace], known as the [Berserk Dragon of the Desert], Xin Rulong... 

    The four little demon kings of the Southern Water Demon Race, [Golden Scaled King], [Purple Lightning King], [Gigantic Power King], as well as the [Burrowing Ground King]... 

    Zhang Jinsan, the leader of the army of the White Mountain Black Water Brute Race, the [Berserk Horned Army]. The successor of the [Eastern Divine Palace], Ye Feifei...

    These were all excellent prodigies that rose from the younger generation. They were like the most resplendent stars in the night sky that could attract the gaze of the entire world. There were many people of the Demon Race and experts of the Brute Race that had been famous for a long time already. They demonstrated their terrifying power and ability in battle, and caused the conflict that had already been dragged out for half a year to become even more terrifying. 

    The thing that people did not understand was that the Snow Emperor was still in closed isolation training, as if he did not care about the outside world at all.

    In this half a year, the majority of military matters was still discussed and enacted upon by the Left Minister, the Right Minister, the military department as well as the Crown Prince.  But the great factions ultimately could not unite together and cooperate. This caused the reaction of the military to become very dull…

    ……

    Dawn.

    A faint mist, covered the entire capital under a thin sheet.

    "In other words, the empire is really looking to discuss a peace treaty with them?" After Ye Qingyu heard Gao Han's report, he was somewhat surprised. Under the situation where the forces of the alien races were like a mighty dragon, in less than a year, the empire had already lost a third of its territories. And they seemed to have no way of retaliating whatsoever.

    "It seems like so. This morning, the four peace amba.s.sadors have already left the capital. I guess further news will come soon..." Gao Han's voice, was somewhat down.

    Who would have thought that the Snow Empire that had run rampant throughout Heaven Wasteland Domain would have such a day. For them to be humiliated to such a degree that they could not help but beg for negotiation from the alien races.

    A peace treaty, what it represented was pure and unadulterated humiliation.

    Was this truly the method that those important people of the capital had discussed to solve the predicament of the empire?

    As a martial expert, Gao Han evidently did not agree with such a method.

    Ye Qingyu also did not agree.

    But this matter was not for them to decide.

    "Lord, I..." Gao Han suppressed his urge several times, but ultimately lifted his head, about to say something.

    Ye Qingyu waved his hand, shaking his head. " I know what you are going to say. But right now is not the time. Even if you charge to the front lines, you cannot solve anything. the power of an individual person is limited after all. Wait a little longer..."

    Gao Han opened his mouth, wanting to say something more.

    If not for the fact that he had been appointed and become an Envoy of Light of the [Light Palace], Gao Han would have long acted like the Dragon Saint Child of the Dragon Tiger Sect and Qin Zhishui, the [Matchless Blade King]. He would have killed his way to the front lines. Even if he could not change the overall situation, but as long as he killed a demon, as long as he cut down a brute soldier, he could have been said to have done his part for the empire.

    "A generation of heroes unsheathing their swords is the tribulation of ten years for all life."

    Ye Qingyu let out a sigh.

    He rose, coming to before the stone palace. His gaze was unfocused, staring past the city walls, as if he could see the mountains and rivers thousands of miles away.

    "Wait a little more. Perhaps very quickly, this matter will turn around."

    Ye Qingyu said bit by bit, his tone unprecedentedly determined.
