Chapter 238 The War Between The Great Zhou And The Grassland
Lia had wanted to challenge the number one expert of the Xiongnu Tribe, The White Tiger Meng Ao. Thus, she had been training hard for the past year in hopes of improving. After all, defeating Meng Ao would allow her to take over the King position.
"You must remember the Young Master's teachings. Without his words, you must not seek revenge on the First Prince!" Cai Lian opened her mouth to persuade.
"Forget it, I'll go back and continue my cultivation. I'll wait for Master to come out of seclusion!" Lia shook her head and turned to return to her room.
Of course, she remembered He Chuan's words.
In the recent period of time, the conflicts between the Great Zhou and the Xiongnu Tribes had become more and more frequent. Sooner or later, the Great Zhou and the Xiongnu Tribes would have an earth-shaking battle. As the Princess of the Zhou Dynasty and a saint cultivator, she had an important position in the Great Zhou Dynasty. As long as she ascended to the position of female King, the two sides would be at peace for a hundred years!
...
In the quiet room. He Chuan sat cross-legged and continued to cultivate. He wanted to continue improving his strength.
He couldn't feel at ease when he had just reached the extreme mortal realm.
"I'm still lacking a little!" Suddenly, He Chuan opened his eyes. His eyes were as deep as the ocean, filled with endless vicissitudes of life. As early as eight years ago, his cultivation had reached the peak of the fifth-rank mortal realm. He was still prepared to come out of closed-door cultivation only after at least sixth rank.
Unfortunately, he was still a little short.
Originally, he thought he should be able to gain a pill that was beneficial to his breakthrough through checked in, but he had never encountered one. He wondered if his luck had run out.
Or was it that the Imperial Palace had started to not give him anything good again? Although he had checked in at some important places outside to try his luck, he had been to the Xiongnu Tribe, the East Sea, the Southern Wilderness, and the various countries in the Western regions. But he had never checked in anything useful for breaking through to the extreme mortal realm.
"Sigh, why has the system been so lacking recently?" He Chuan sighed. However, he firmly believed that he would definitely be able to check in for good items in the future. The current difficulty was only temporary. He had to be patient. It was better to continue breaking through and let the Xiongnu Tribe play around for now!
...
The Xiongnu Tribe's great snow mountain. On one side, it was covered in snow that would not melt for ten thousand years; on the other, it was like spring all year round! A mighty Divine Palace stood on the snow mountain. It was the Holy Land of the Xiongnu Tribe, The White Tiger Palace. This was the place that the Xiongnu heavenly Khan had promised to build for Meng Ao.
On this day, the heavens and earth trembled on the snowy mountain. Countless snowflakes fluttered as if they were being pulled by an invisible force. They formed a White Tiger that covered the sky in the void. When the Xiongnu Tribesmen inside and outside The White Tiger Palace saw this, they all knelt down and worshipped. At the same time, on an open-air altar in the center of The White Tiger Palace, a tall and sturdy figure sat cross-legged with his upper body bare. A snow-white light-like energy radiated from him. His body gradually left the altar and floated in the air.
His hair had also started to turn from black to white. Suddenly, he opened his eyes, which were filled with endless surprise. "Did I finally succeed?" The figure muttered to himself.
"It's been so many years. I've finally returned. I didn't expect that my descendants have lost control of the Central Plains and reduced to a foreign race beyond the Great Wall. But it doesn't matter. I'll take back everything I've lost and that precious treasure. So many years have passed, it should be almost complete."
"The capital... Just wait for your Master to return." When the tall and sturdy man landed, he revealed an extremely handsome and masculine face. His facial features were deep and well-defined, and he naturally exuded an invisible domineering aura. At the same time, the huge Snow Wolf that had been shrouding The White Tiger Palace had also gradually disappeared.
When he walked out of the square, there were a large number of guards and maids outside. "Great Sage, have you broken through?" An old man in sackcloth said excitedly. Just now, he had felt an incomparably great power that enveloped this world.
It was a power that surpassed the Xiantian realm. Only the Supreme saint cultivators could touch it. "Yes, I've already broken through." This tall and sturdy man was The White Tiger Grand Sage, Meng Ao.
However, he had another identity that no one knew about. Under normal circumstances, in this world that had been sealed, it was almost impossible to reach the mortal realm. However, he was not an ordinary person because he was a member of the godfiend clan. They could break the norm. Therefore, he would become the first mortal realm warrior on this continent in hundreds of years.
He was truly invincible. "Pass down my orders. Gather the 36 tribes of the grassland and the 72 tribes of the desert to attack the Great Zhou." The White Tiger Grand Sage, Meng Ao, changed into a set of majestic robes and gave his orders. When the Xiongnu Tribe experts heard this, they roared in acknowledgment.
And the First Prince the King was only a puppet!
In an instant, countless cavalrymen left the great snow Mountain and galloped to various parts of the Great Plains, conveying the orders of the Great White Tiger Grand Sage to all tribes. The Great Zhou Dynasty. The Capital. The court session in the throne room. Empress Changning sat on the Dragon Throne and looked down at the officials. To his left sat the Crown Prince, Zhou Ming. Zhou Ming was the eldest son, while Zhou Xue was the Eldest Princess.
They were the twins that Empress Changning had given birth to. He Chuan had only started his closed-door cultivation after accompanying her in giving birth to the children.
Zhou Ming was the future hope of the Great Zhou. As long as the ministers saw this cute doll, they felt that the future was full of infinite possibilities.
This was because the child born from the union of Duke He and Empress Changning must have a terrifying talent.
"Report! Urgent report from the Xiongnu Tribe!" Just as the Zhou Dynasty's Grand Assembly was being held, someone suddenly ran into the main hall faster than lightning and knelt down on one knee. "Present it."
Empress Changning said in a deep voice. Soon, a eunuch examined the seal of the secret letter in the soldier's hand and presented the letter with three feathers. Empress Changning tore open the letter and flipped through it. Her expression changed drastically. A few days ago, The White Tiger Grand Sage Meng Ao of the Xiongnu Tribe summoned 36 tribes of the grasslands and 72 tribes of the desert to attack the Great Zhou.
Empress Changning said in a deep voice as she looked at the crowd with her sharp eyes. The court officials were shocked. Even though the Great Zhou and the Xiongnu Tribes had been in constant conflict, it was only a small fight. At most, one of the tribes would go south to plunder. However, it was different this time. The White Tiger Grand Sage actually issued a summoning order to gather all his tribe's cavalrymen to attack the Great Zhou.
This meant that they were going to fight a war that would destroy a country. Even though the Great Zhou Dynasty had been working hard for decades and its strength had greatly improved, the Zhou Dynasty was still very weak. However, the Xiongnu Tribe was not weak either. After Meng Ao unified the Central Plains, their military strength had reached a terrifying level. They could easily gather millions of cavalry. Furthermore, this Meng Ao was extremely ambitious. He wanted to imprison the heavenly King and become the true Lord of Xiongnu!
Both of them were saint cultivators.
However, this was only what they thought, because He Chuan had already cultivated to the extreme mortal realm!
"Your Majesty, the Xiongnu Tribes have not given up on their evil intentions. They want to taint the rich lands of our Central Plains. They have the ambition of wolves. We must quickly make preparations and gather the Army to head North. With the current military strength of the North, it will be very difficult to resist the charge of the wolf cavalry."
