This is the capital of the Northern Wolf Empire.

The Northern Wolf Empire is located above the northern territory of Central State, separated from the Xia Country by a stretch of the Gobi Desert.

Eight hundred years ago, when Ancestor Yan Zu descended into this world, the Northern Wolf Empire did not yet exist.

However, since Yan Country was established, the shadow of the Northern Wolf gradually appeared in the classics. They worshipped the Heavenly Wolf, using the totem of the Heavenly Wolf as a symbol of their national fortune, and were thus named. Whether the common people of Central State or the Imperial Court, they referred to them as alien tribes.

Some say that the god revered by the Northern Wolf Empire is an evil deity from the heavens, because they are often in conflict with the Central State Country, erupting into war.

During the time of Ancestor Yan Zu, the Northern Wolf was insignificant, merely a nomadic tribe, but after the departure of Ancestor Yan Zu, the Northern Wolf gradually began to swallow up the surrounding small countries, tribal city-states, slowly growing stronger. After a hundred years of expansion, the Northern Wolf Empire as it currently stands was established.

The Northern Wolf Empire was established three hundred years ago. Its overall power, taking into consideration aspects such as economy, civilian welfare, and cultivator strength, couldn’t compare to neither Yan Country nor Xia Country, but their military strength was rapidly developing and had always been a thorn in the side for both Yan Country and Xia Country in the North.

Beneath the Northern Wolf Giant City, there were countless pavilions and fortresses, criss-crossing stone streets. Their architectural style differs from that of the Xia Country. Most structures were built with sturdy stones, their roofs being round and only exposing one window.

“Clip clop!

A stout black steed galloped over the smooth stone road, with an armored soldier riding on it. He held up a red flag as he journeyed towards the Imperial Palace at the highest point of the city.

The pedestrians on the street glanced at them repeatedly. Their appearances were also unique, with wide nostrils, prominent noses, dark skin, and they were all extremely tall. Most were dressed with headscarves, with furry beast skins decorating both sides.

At the height of the Giant City, there was a giant peach tree that reached all the way to the heavens and drilled into the ground. Its massive roots resembled dragons coiling around the entire giant city, seemingly encircling it.

The peach tree’s bark was rough like a rock, but the peach blossoms on its branches were a fiery red.

Wolf Capital Palace

The ceiling of the Main Hall was adorned with gems of all colors, resembling the dazzling stars in the heavens. The floor was covered with soft, rare animal furs. The heads of countless precious spirit beasts and gigantic demonic bones were hung on both sides of the corridor, seemingly to showcase their martial arts prowess.

The entire Main Hall was extravagant and luxuriously decorated. Even the recently renovated Imperial Palace of Xia could not match this ostentation. The sound of laughter echoed faintly.

The sound of the animal-skin drums occasionally rang out, with tones as sweet as the voice of a warbler coming through. Despite this, no excessive noise could be heard. The beautiful women inside boasted wheat-colored skin, long legs, and flat belly with not a trace of fat. Their dance movements were agile, somewhat wild, and their heads were adorned with small braids.

A man, cloaked in a black robe and adorned with a white, ivory hairpin, sat on the throne. His hawk-like eyes were glued to the seductive beauty.

He was the present-day highest ruler of the Northern Wolf Empire, the Wolf

Emperor.

“Report! ”

An armored soldier holding a flag broke into the Main Hall, interrupting the ongoing song and dance.

“What’s the matter?”

The Wolf Emperor asked indifferently.

“New news from the insider in the south, Xia’s border affairs have recently seen frequent troop movements and many city walls are extremely vulnerable. The number of border inspections has gone from three times a day to once a day. The commander speculates that something is happening within Xia!”

“Oh?!”

Upon hearing this news, the Wolf Emperor’s hawk-like eyes suddenly brightened, revealing a glint.

“Quick! Issue my order, hurry to convene the parliamentary assembly!” The soldier hastily left to deliver the message after receiving the order.

The Wolf Emperor waved his hand, signaling the dancers to step down, before bursting into laugher:

“Ha ha ha! I have finally waited for this day!”

“Zhao Yan, you brat, Sir Yu, you’re both dead. Now, who can stand against me, the Northern Wolf?”

Imperial Palace, Parliamentary Assembly Hall.

The silver-armored generals were lined up on both sides, their wolf-head shoulder pads exuding an awe-inspiring presence.

Many ministers in dark gown stood in a huge expanse of sand.

The Northern Wolf was of the water element, thus their ceremonial attire was majorly dark black.

“Your Majesty, I believe, now is a good opportunity to attack the Xia from the south.”

“Right, Yan Country’s national fortune is reviving, they must have a showdown with the Xia. We absolutely can’t let this kind of opportunity slip.”

“We have been hiding our strength for hundreds of years, now it’s time to have a result.”

“Yes, why do we have to endure hardships and trials in this cold and desolate land, while the descendants of Ancestor Yan Zu, those guys, occupy the center of the world’s flowing qi.”

Listening to the discussion of the ministers, the Wolf Emperor who was seated in the center went silent for a moment, then he opened his mouth to speak:

“What are the results of the divine tree augury?

“In response to your Majesty, the results are very auspicious. We can attack.”

A man who was dressed in a gray long robe, small in stature, and with an average-looking face, stood up to speak.

This man was the current imperial teacher of the Northern Wolf Empire,

Huyan Zhenlie.

“Oh ho! Attack!” “Oh ho! Attack!”

“Oh ho! Attack!”

His words resonated with many ministers of the Northern Wolf, they all agreed and shouted in unison.

The Wolf Emperor, looking at the civil and martial officials below, revealed a fierce smile at the corner of his mouth:

“Good, my loyal ministers, that’s exactly what I think.” He glanced at the guards on his left and right:

“Issue my order, mobilize the army, prepare to head south!”

“Yes.”

The Wolf Emperor waved his hand to dismiss them, and a general immediately left the scene.

The Wolf Emperor smiled as he looked at the imperial teacher: “Imperial teacher, for this trek to the south, do you have any good ideas?”

Huyan Zhenlie, the imperial teacher, stroked his beard, then he gave a meaningful smile:

“Your Majesty, our Northern Wolf’s strength is substantial, we need not fear the Xia. However, this battle must be won beautifully, so they know that we, the Northern Wolf, are not weaklings that can be bullied at will. As long as we capture the territory of the Xia, our Northern Wolf can rise again at any time and even surpass the Xia, becoming the hegemon of the world!”

Hearing Zhao Yan’s words, the Wolf Emperor’s hawk eyes flashed with intense killing intent:

“Ha ha ha ha! The Imperial Teacher speaks well, I am also thinking the same way!”

The Wolf Emperor, sitting on the throne, had an icy look in his eyes.

He had been plotting this invasion for a long time, but had always lacked an opportunity.

Although the Xia’s army was formidable, it was too scattered, and its foundation was shallow. As long as he could seize a stronghold and establish a foothold, he could use his abundant resources to wage a national war against the Xia.

His goal wasn’t just the North, but the entire territory of the Xia Empire!

The Wolf Emperor’s hawk-eye pupils burst out with burning flame, his fists clenched tightly, his knuckles creaking.

A silent invasion of the Xia is about to unfold!
