"Careful... defend!"

The fatty, seeing that these two had come out, instantly let out an involuntary shiver.

Why was it that these two people had really not died and were able to escape alive?

Could it really be that ‘a calamity was enough to taint a thousand years’?

The other people also became tense.

The tragic situation of the [Light Palace] was before everyone's eyes. The corpses were like mountains, the blood like rivers. It was unknown how many experts of the sects had turned into bloody mud. This was entirely caused by these two demons.

Previously, there were strange changes occurring within the earth Fire sword pit, with unending howls and screams. Evidently, the people and demonic souls within had encountered a fatal disaster.

But in truth, if one must choose who should definitely die amongst the people who entered into the Earth Fire sword pit, then no matter what criteria was used, everyone hoped that the person who died inside was Lin Zheng as well as Yu Feiyan.

But conversely, these two people had managed to survive.

Perhaps they could sense the emotions of everyone, Lin Zheng's face was suddenly taken aback. He took step after step towards everyone, the [White Tiger Armour] transforming into a light tiger, which lay on his shoulder.

An imposing aura once again pressured them like a huge tidal wave.

In an instant, no matter whether it was Wang Lijin, Qu Hanshan, or Dugu Quan, their complexions rapidly and acutely changed.

There were no wounds on Lin Zheng's body, completely unharmed. He was still at his peak state.

A Right Minister in such a condition, facing a bunch of old and crippled people of the [Light Palace], would completely be annihilated by just one thought of his.

At the front of the [Light Palace}.

On the faces of everyone, there was the expression of tragic sacrifice.

There were people roaring from their throats.

There were some people tightly gripping onto weapons.

But at this time, Lu Heng walked out slowly step by step. Her expression was somewhat serious, saying, "Minister Zheng, the matters at hand, have they undergone successfully?"

Everyone turned with surprise towards Lu Heng.

On the originally serious and authoritative face of the Right Minister, there was a relaxed smile that was suddenly seen. HIs imposing aura was completely gone in but a moment.

"Hahahaha..."

Like he was a child that had just successfully pulled off a prank, he tilted his head to the heavens and began roaring with laughter.

The unrestrainedness of his laughter did not have the slightest of disguise.

There was a teasing note as well a somewhat mischievous tone contained within his laughter. It absolutely should not emit from a huge figure like Right Minister Lin Zheng, who was someone unparalleled in scheming and plotting.

But Lin Zheng laughed like such, even so.

"What is the matter with the old bastard, could he have been so happy that he has gone crazy?" Wang Lijin mumbled in his heart.

Dugu Quan as well as Ouyang Buping had expressions of shock and surprise on their faces.

They had often had many interactions with the Right Minister.

But they had never ever seen such a Right Minister.

There was finally a relaxed expression that was exposed on Lu Heng's face. "Since the Minister's mood is so great, it seems everything has gone successfully."

"That's right." The Apex Prince, Yu Feiyan that stood far off, approached in large strides. "Everything has gone extremely smoothly. The methods that his majesty has left behind are really unspeakably miraculous. A hundred years has passed, but it was still able to completely capture those demons’ souls that escaped from the formation in the past. Not even one was able to escape. Even those old monsters at the Immortal stage in the past has been exterminated by us."

"The painstaking efforts of a hundred years can finally bloom today." Lin Zheng also gradually stopped laughing. "This time, we have completely swept and cleansed everything, completely removing the ashes of those demons from the other domains. The people of Heaven Wasteland can finally rest assured.”

Lu Heng also let out a breath.

There was a relaxed expression that appeared on her face, her smile blossoming like the flowering of hundreds of flowers. In front of the [Light Palace] where there were mountains of corpses and rivers of blood, it seem exceedingly beautiful and gentle.

"This time, it was all thanks to you two."

Lu Heng nodded her head in gratitude towards the Apex Prince Yu Feiyan as well as the Right Minister, Lin Zheng.

Her attitude when she spoke was extremely unique, as if she was completely equal in status to the two great figures, perhaps even higher than them. It was completely different from the previous picture of them doing battle previously.

"We don't dare."

Yu Feiyan and Lin Zheng both replied.

The attitude they treated Lu Heng with also suddenly became respectful.

Such a change caused the surrounding people to be completely nonplussed, utter confusion running through them.

This seemed more and more like...

It was like Lin Zheng, Yu Feiyan and Lu Heng were on the same side.

But this was impossible.

Previously, Lin Zheng and Lu Heng had fought blade to blade, every strike struck to kill. Furthermore, Yu Feiyan and Lin Zheng had in these last decades, fought in the above and under the table countless times. They hated the fact they could not kill the other.

In the entire Empire, even in the entire Heaven Wasteland Domain, everyone knew that these two were each other's greatest enemies.

They were... on the same side?

There were many people that were completely nonplussed.

Dugu Quan, Ouyang Buping, Qu Hanshan, Li Guangbi, these huge figures of the Empire also could not tell what had happened, feeling completely confused.

Lu Heng looked towards the pile of corpses that had accumulated into a massive mountain-like pile, blood flowing everywhere like a river. "It's only that this plan has too much killing. Although we have exterminated the demons from the other domains as well as the remnants, but the experts of the Human Race also suffered heavily."

Lin Zheng swept his gaze towards the accumulated corpses, with a faint smile, "For the continued flourishment and sustenance of the Human Race of Heaven Wasteland, it is normal for some people to die. Furthermore, out of the Jianghu people, all of them have ambition in their heart, and not willing to be converted to the Empire. They keep using the martial might to ignore the law, arrogantly calling it the 'matters of the Jianghu are settled in the Jianghu.' They are absolutely an unstable part, and does not have much difference to the demons of the other domains. This time, I only utilized the experts of the Jianghu and did not use the armies of the Empire. This was to use this opportunity, to cause them to kill each other, and solve everything all at once."

In such words, there was a sinister killing intent.

Everyone sucked in a cold breath inside.

Lin Zheng, at this moment, once again became the person with sister methods, cruel and emotionless, the Right Minister that calculated the responses of the entire world.

Yu Feiyan also nodded his head, “The people of the sects that were willing to participate in the battle to surround the City of Light were not any benevolent people anyway. In these years, I have interacted with such people too much. I know what they are like deeply, it's better if they are eradicated. Furthermore, today we have also shown mercy towards them. If they were not too greedy and did not enter into the Earth Fire sword pit, they did not need to die. Heng, you do not need to be so sorrowful. Life and Death is fated, this was their own choice."

Lu Heng, upon hearing this, nodded her head.

But she still let out a sigh.

At this time, the Old Commander Li Guangbi who always had no patience could finally bear it no longer, "You... this... just what is happening?"

This question was completely reflected in everyone's heart.

Lu Heng turned around, with a faint smile, "The root of this matter is long... if the Old Commander really wants to know, once his majesty arrives, then everything will become clear.”

"His majesty?" Li Guangbi was taken aback. "Is his Majesty not in closed isolation? For him not to appear now, it's most likely..."

Yu Feiyan let out a clear laugh, shaking his head, "Closed isolation? that is only a cover. His Majesty as well as the Previous Emperor, in these years, have lived in isolation and not taken care of political affairs. But this is not simply to be in closed isolation and cultivation."

"What?" Li Guangbi was taken aback, then there was delight in his face. He could not believe all of this, quickly asking with an expectation that could not be hidden, "Just what is happening? Why do I know nothing?"

As the Old Commander of the empire, before the empire had already even be founded, he had commanded armies, running rampant in all directions. The Li Guangbi at that time was vigorous and ambitious. He wanted to found a powerful and glorious human dynasty, pushing the Human Race of Heaven Wasteland into a pinnacle state.

But after the empire was founded, a strange changed occurred.

First it was that the peerless War God that had supported the empire had disappeared. What followed after that was that the first Snow Emperor had abdicated, then it was the Snow Emperor of current times. But it was only that these two Emperors did not pay attention to the Imperial Court, causing chaos in the Court, without any signs of showing initiative.

Li Guangbi had seen all of this, pain in his heart.

He had sent letter and proposal time after time, but had always been restricted, without receiving any reply whatsoever.

Afterwards, the heart of the Old Commander also gradually became cold.

Hearing the words of Yu Feiyan and thinking of the matters that had occurred before, Li Guangbi suddenly guessed at something. Just how could his heart not be overjoyed?

"The fact that the two Emperors are in closed isolation... is just a front. It was all for today. If there are no errors in the plan, then it is most likely that at this time, the Domain Gates of the Snow Ground Demon Court, the Hurricane Wave Demon Court, the White Mountain Black Water Brute Race, and the Desert Brute Race has already been completely sealed. It should be difficult to open them again.”

"What?"

This time, the people who exhaled out loud was Dugu Quan and Ouyang Buping.

"How is this possible?" Dugu Quan let out a gasp. "You are saying... but the Domain Gate of the four other great other races has long been opened before. They are comparatively stable Domain Gates. Although they are narrow, but they are born from the world. It is absolute hard to shut them, if one tries to forcefully destroy it, it will cause chaos in the domain. Once the chaotic turbulence of spacetime expands, then the entire Heaven Wasteland Domain will be destroyed…”

"That's right. If it was not like so, then the War God in the past would have long completely sealed and shut off the Domain Gates in the territories of the four alien races. Why wait until today?" Ouyang Buping did not believe in what was being said. "With the power of that War God, he was not able to do this. Then why today..."

The Right Minister, Lin Zheng, let out a faint smile. "These are some methods that War God left behind. Normal methods would truly have no way of sealing off an already stable Domain Gate. But if it is done according to the wishes of the lifeform within the domain, and using the will of all life, and adding to this a formation array and secret technique, it will become possible to seal it off.”

"The will of all life?" Ouyang Buping was stunned for a moment, seeming to have understood something, then shook his head. "If you want to captured the will of everyone, the civilians of this city that has millions upon millions of people in it. If they would all pray together and attempt to resonate with the world, it may be achievable. But in this period of time, there were not any such thing occurring…”

Dugu Quan finally realized something, saying: "The position of the empire receives the worship of all life. There is an Emperor-like aura within the Imperial family, and that Emperor aura comes from the will of all life. Could it... could it be..."

"You old fellow, you are not entirely senile." Lin Zheng paid a glance to Dugu Quan. "Snow Empire has been founded for a hundred years. It has gathered the fortune of the Imperial family in the last hundred years. members of the Imperial family will have the enhancement of this Imperial aura. After obtaining the secret techniques of that uncomparable War God, they could absolutely use such a method to attempt to seal off the Domain Gates of the four great Demon Courts. “

As these words were said, Dugu Quan, Ouyang Buping, and Li Guangbi instantly realized something.

But very quickly, Li Guangbi frowned. He said, “The Domain Gates of the four other races belong to heavily guarded areas. It is protected extremely seriously, outsiders can rarely enter. If one performs an ambush, it is possible to achieve this. But the peerless experts that has the Imperial aura of Snow Empire flowing through them are in the rarity, there are not four. Therefore there is no way of attacking the four great courts of the other races first. If one chose to first attack something now and some later, there is no way of stopping the news from spreading. The Two Snow Emperors, no matter which location each chooses to attack, the other two locations will definitely receive news of this and make their preparations. To want to seal off all the Domain Gates is indeed utterly difficult!"

As these words were said, Ouyang Buping as well as Dugu Quan also subconsciously nodded their heads.

Yu Feiyan only let out a faint smile. "Who said there are only the Two Snow Emperors that has the fate of the Imperial family of Snow Empire running through them and are peerless experts. Old Commander, think more carefully."
