786 Treading Through the Thorns, Advancing Towards the Throne! (3)
Fenghai County.
The instant Bai Xiaozhuo died, the mountains and rivers that had risen from the ground after returning from ancient times in the various provinces of the county trembled in unison.
They were already in the midst of collapse after the second sky disappeared, but as if some will was supporting them, they didn’t completely collapse.
However, at this moment, these ancient mountains and rivers completely collapsed and shattered into pieces.
They then disappeared in the air. It was as though tens of thousands of years had passed in an instant, and they all turned into dust and dissipated.
The sky became clear and the ground slowly returned to its previous terrain.
However, everything was still a mess.
The scars left behind by this battle covered the entire Fenghai County.
The number of deaths of the various races was even greater, especially the small sects and countries of the human race. Countless of them were destroyed.
The previous war had already caused Fenghai County to suffer great losses, and the calamity from the Deputy Governor made things even worse for Fenghai County, which was in the midst of recovery.
At that moment, everyone in the various provinces was in a daze. Many casualties didn’t even know the reason for the calamity.
Mourning and crying filled the world.
It was the same sight at the core of this drastic change.
The sense of sorrow spread throughout the capital city. Even as the blood rain from the rolling thunder in the sky diminished over the land, the sadness grew stronger.
Slowly appearing in the sky above, the night sky and the bright moon silently watched over everything.
Under their gazes, the two god specimen puppets in the air above the platform emitted cracking sounds from their bodies. Their attacks gradually slowed down and their auras gradually dissipated.
The Deputy Governor’s death caused them to lose their source. Hence, their opened eyes were also slowly closing. They were about to lose all their auras.
At that moment, the Seventh Prince raised his head, his majestic voice echoing throughout the entire city, reaching the ears of all the common people who were in despair.
“The Deputy Governor has caused chaos and destroyed our Fenghai. This has infuriated both heaven and earth, and it can’t be tolerated!”
“All soldiers, hear my order. Suppress all the rebels and return peace to Fenghai County!”
As the Seventh Prince’s voice echoed, the generals and commanders around him rose into the air. He also headed straight for the two puppets who were about to lose all signs of life.
His speed was extremely fast. In an instant, dozens of generals and commanders approached and an earth-shattering sound resounded through the clouds.
The Seventh Prince displayed unparalleled courage, as if he was releasing the pent-up anger that had been building within him, and he struck one of the puppets with a resounding force.
Because he went all out, he transformed into a massive illusory figure that manifested into the world, allowing the mortals in the city to see him clearly.
His generals and commanders also attacked with heavy force. Hence, very soon, the two puppets lost their combat strength and fell to the ground, losing all signs of life.
The Seventh Prince’s transformed figure opened his arms, using his body to block the blood rain.
The blood rain landed on his body, forming corrosive marks. However, the Seventh Prince continued blocking it and didn’t let it fall. In the end, under the roar of the golden dragon in the sky, the blood rain dissipated.
At the same time, tens of millions of soldiers outside the city rose into the air.
They each cast spells and formed a large array formation to disperse the anomalous substances here.
The Seventh Prince was a benevolent person. He ordered all the soldiers to head to the city to save the mortals.
Under his decree, countless mortals were rescued at the critical moment of mutation. As for the anomalous substances in the city, they also began to dissipate on a large scale.
Occasionally, there would be excited cheers and praises that carried gratitude for the Seventh Prince…
However, not everyone would become blind, deaf, or foolish, allowing themselves to be easily deceived. Therefore, the cheers were not as numerous, and many people remained in silence.
This was especially so for the hundreds of thousands of cultivators from the three palaces around the platform. All of them looked coldly at the Seventh Prince who had performed these actions. Their eyes were filled with disappointment, anger, and mockery.
There was also bitterness.
Some thought of the Palace Master.
Some people remembered that after the death of the Palace Master, the mourning words contained only one phrase: “Fulfilling duty with loyalty.”
All his credit and glory had unknowingly become the halo of this Seventh Prince.
At that moment, it was as though what had happened to the Palace Master back then was about to repeat itself.
This was because they were the only ones who knew the truth, and the opinions of these hundreds of thousands of people were just a small ripple in the ocean when placed in the county or the entire human race.
As for mortals, the cognition barrier made them susceptible to influence, and human nature inherently contained the attribute of forgetfulness.
It wouldn’t be long before their memories of this event would instinctively blur and they would be attracted by a new thing.
As long as the Seventh Prince used the plain pill as a breakthrough point, he would be able to resolve all the issues relatively easily.
After all, compared to the evil of the Deputy Governor, the poison of the plain pill was something that was closely related to everyone.
Outside the city, those who didn’t know the truth would be even more easily affected. What they would always hear would be another answer.
Especially when the person in question, the Seventh Prince, had just expanded the county’s territory and led the return of the Holy Wave Race. He had also resolved the crisis of Fenghai County and made extraordinary contributions.
This halo was like an invincible armor, so many would believe in his words.
Gradually, the human hearts would be washed away by the waves and slowly dissipate until they were buried in a corner of history.
Unless Xu Qing was still alive and returned immediately!
In that case, the meaning would be completely different.
Before the human hearts were shaken, there would be a source of convergence and fortune would have a place to return. Everything would be different then.
However, everyone understood that the probability of this happening was very low.
