Chapter 121.2

Now, the Great Yue Emperor felt as if his hands were tied.

Because at present, his Great Yue was trapped by three great kingdoms. To the direct west was the Great Shi Kingdom, to the north was the Great Zhu Kingdom, and to the southeast was the Great Xia Kingdom. They had him completely hemmed in, leaving no room for expansion.

A year ago, he only had to face two great kingdoms.

To avoid clashing with them, he had no choice but to expand toward the southeast, as that area was filled with small kingdoms.

The beginning was very smooth, and he easily conquered the Shang Kingdom. Not long after, he also took down the An Kingdom and Peng Kingdom. Although he didnt gain much benefit, the territory of his nation expanded by millions of square kilometers, and the population increased by several million.

But everything changed since encountering the Great Xia.

After a great battle, hundreds of thousands of troops were lost, wealth was gone, and food supplies were depleted.

Now, having barely conquered the land, it was snatched away by Great Xia.

It seems that after all his efforts over the year, he gained no benefits at all, only to have his national power completely worn down.

The Great Yue Emperor was filled with immense regret in his heart.

If only he had known better than to provoke Great Xia, how could it have come to this?

Just then, a soldier rushed in hurriedly: Report! Urgent news! The Great Shi Kingdom and Great Zhu Kingdom have each led an army of 500,000 into our territory! Two cities have already fallen!

What? Great Shi and Great Zhu have actually attacked? The Great Yue Emperor was shocked and dismayed.

These two great kingdoms are in no way inferior to their Great Yue.

At its peak, Great Yue struggled to withstand these two nations, and now with its national power greatly diminished, theres simply no hope of victory!

But even if victory is impossible, we must still send out troops; otherwise, we can only wait for our nation to perish!

Are we not quickly organizing troops to resist? exclaimed the Great Yue Emperor.

And so, the great war between the three kingdoms began!

The weakened Great Yue Kingdom, with its declining national power, had to fend off the aggressive Great Shi Kingdom and the Great Zhu Kingdom with a combined force of a million soldiers!

How long can Great Yue hold out?

Upon learning of this, Lin Beifan let out a sly chuckle.

He had long been aware of which great kingdom, Great Shi or Great Zhu, would grow impatient. Thats why he dispatched troops to seize the territories of Mo Kingdom and Shang Kingdom, cutting off Great Yue Kingdoms retreat. With a pincer attack from front and back, he was cornering Great Yue to its demise!

When Great Yue could no longer withstand the pressure, he could then

Clang

At that moment, Lin Beifan heard a loud and clear sound of a swords cry.

Lin Beifans expression changed: Thats coming from the direction of the volcano. The divine sword is about to make its appearance!

Thus, they had no choice but to retreat.

However, the number of martial arts experts gathering at the foot of the mountain was increasing, already amounting to hundreds, posing a significant threat.

As night fell, an Innate master arrived.

He regarded the hundred thousand strong army as nothing, using his movement skill to penetrate into the volcanos crater.

But there, he encountered the Wine Sword Immortal and Bai Zhu, among three people.

Dare to trespass into the forbidden area? Death without mercy!

Bai Zhu, wielding a sharp sword, came to kill, and within less than 10 rounds, she had slain the intruder.

The bloody severed head was thrown down the mountain, deterring many with ulterior motives.

Thus, the night passed smoothly.

However, the number of people arriving here was increasing, already reaching over a thousand. They squatted at the foot of the mountain, looking up with flickering eyes, seeking their opportunity.

At this moment, an informer ran over excitedly.

Ive found out! The one forging swords above is Master Ouyezi, he is the most skilled at sword-making!

About four months ago, he arrived in Great Xia and was recruited by the Great Xia Emperor, so he stayed here to forge weapons for him!

It is said that they are using meteoric iron from beyond the heavens and many other precious materials to create a divine sword!

More than three months have passed, and the forging is nearly complete, which is why the Emperor has sent so many experts to guard it!

The crowd was abuzz with excitement.

It seems that the divine sword really does belong to the Great Xia Emperor!

So what if it belongs to him? Treasures should reside with the virtuous! Ive heard he is a foolish emperor; a foolish emperor does not deserve to possess a divine sword! Only those of us who wield swords are worthy of owning a divine sword!

Youre right, treasures belong to those with virtue! Even if the sword is truly his, how can a person with no ability to cut a chicken wield a divine sword? He would only be wasting heavens gifts!

I couldnt agree more with that statement!

Contrary to scaring people away, these words attracted even more people to come in search of the divine sword.

On the second day, there wasnt much activity, but the number of people who came had increased even more, reaching 2,000. Among them, there were four Innate masters, but they did not make a move.

On the third day, there was still no significant activity, but the number of people had grown to 2,500.

Among them, the number of Innate masters had reached seven or eight. They moved like spirits, elusive, seeking opportunities to break into the volcano and obtain the divine sword.
