After the conversation with the Origin of the Cherry Blossom World, Lu Hong got up and left, heading to the Zuo’an World.
During this period, Solomon’s main forces finally erupted with great power, starting from the Link Domain and launching fierce attacks on families and forces within the Guang Domain and Zong Domain with lightning speed.
In less than a month, eighteen family forces were massacred, and because of this bloodbath, there was a temporary communication blackout.
When Lu Hong arrived at Luo Jinhong’s hidden camp, the two brothers were discussing the intelligence they had just received.
"You’re here just in ti, have a look." Luo Jinhong handed over the military intelligence.
Lu Hong took it and asked, "Have all my people arrived?"
"Yes, they arrived quickly. It seems your people haven’t suffered much. I’m curious how you forced the Cherry Blossom World to seek help from the ants?" Luo Jinhong sized up Lu Hong with curiosity and guessed, "Could it be you relied solely on your own strength?"
The Blood-colored Divine Might Army, deployed here by Lu Hong, had long suppressed their murderous aura and put on a laid-back appearance. Though their acting was clumsy, it was enough to fool so.
Luo Jinhong, with keen eyes, could see that Lu Hong’s army might hide sothing extraordinary, but how extraordinary could it be? Could they be as formidable as the Luo Family’s Jinghong Guard? A bug-like existence?
That’s quite the joke.
Luo Jinhong knew the Blood-colored Divine Might Army was capable, but he didn’t think they could match the top elite forces under the heavens. Hence, he naturally attributed the pressure on the Cherry Blossom World mainly to Lu Hong.
After all, defeating three thousand Jinghong Guards alone, even constrained by Weyang City’s ban and not fully using their skills, one couldn’t ignore this man’s power.
So, in Luo Jinhong’s view, it was entirely possible that Lu Hong had single-handedly blocked the gate to the Cherry Blossom World, holding it against thousands of troops.
Lu Hong glanced at Luo Jinhong’s curious speculation and ignored him, focusing on reading the military intelligence report.
This military intelligence transmission system was crafted from special parent-child Spirit Stones, thin as paper for easy carrying.
The magical effect was due to the Spirit Stones’ special material; anything written on the parent stone would appear exactly on the child stone, no matter the distance, without a single word missing.
Though this was incredibly potent, these stones were rare. Even with the combined efforts of the Sky Domain’s tribes, only ten sets were collected. Due to their one-way information transmission function, they’re usually issued to expeditionary forces for them to stay updated on current situations and receive new tasks despite communication blackouts.
The intelligence letter Lu Hong held, made from child Spirit Stones, wasn’t ant for Luo Jinhong; he wasn’t qualified.
This Spirit Stone intelligence letter was specifically requested by Luo Haibin, the Luo Family Head, for the Jinghong Guard. The Luo Family’s Jinghong Guard was scarce and powerful, warranting such provision.
Of course, once Luo Jinhong took over these Jinghong Guards, this precious item naturally changed ownership.
"Eliminated eighteen family forces in one go?"
After reading the report, Lu Hong couldn’t help but gasp, "That’s fast!"
The intelligence revealed that Solomon didn’t just wipe out ordinary forces in the Guang and Zong Domains; even the Tang Royal Family, feared by Star Sea, was among them.
These eighteen families had significant influence in the Guang and Zong Domains. Their extermination caused a significant upheaval.
With Solomon’s actions, the frontlines were untenable.
Lu Hong’s assessnt was correct. As he finished reading the report, the Six Domains Alliance convened an ergency eting.
Nurous family forces clamored to temporarily retreat and return to their families to clear the remnants of potential lurking forces.
Sitting at the head of the table, Marshal Nie had a furrowed brow and was deeply troubled, listening to the surrounding noise and disputes.
Nie Sanling was furious; the Six Domains Alliance was thriving, pressing down on the Nine Realms Dynasty. He planned to solidify his power before launching the final battle, leading the alliance to break the Imperial City and annihilate the rising dynasty.
As the alliance’s marshal, he expected to reap enormous benefits in the Sky Domain, and his Ling family would beco the strongest under the heavens, ruling the universe.
But he hadn’t expected such a drastic move from the Nine Realms Dynasty, using Formations to seal space around the Sky Domain, rendering long-distance teleportation impossible. How did they manage to dispatch such a large army?
While Nie Sanling was troubled, a family spokesperson stepped forward, bowed deeply to Nie Sanling, and said, "Marshal Nie, my Huo Family is gone, slaughtered to the last. This blood feud, as a mber of the Huo Family, I cannot let go unanswered! I hope Marshal Nie can understand and allow us Huo Family mbers to return and take revenge!"
Led by the Huo Family spokesperson, fifteen other family spokespersons also moved forward with reddened eyes, bowing deeply to Nie Sanling: "We ask Marshal Nie to grant our request!"
Nie Sanling looked at the sixteen people before him, not imdiately responding.
The sixteen were determined, standing unmoved, indicating they wouldn’t leave without a positive response.
"Everyone, the alliance’s formation didn’t happen at will; there must be rules to follow, right?" Before Nie Sanling could speak, Fang Konglin interjected, "Your families have been exterminated, which deeply saddens Marshal Nie and our colleagues. Your families could be wiped out, but the heartlands of others here might be facing the sa threat. Even as I speak, the villains of the Nine Realms Dynasty may have besieged soone’s domain and are launching a fierce attack. By the ti we finish this eting, or maybe even before we end, another family might be eradicated."
Fang Konglin’s words hit the family spokespersons hard. They joined the alliance to attack the Nine Realms Dynasty, representing their families. But if their bases were wiped out, what was the point? The spokespersons were skilled and loyal, and betrayal rarely crossed their minds. After all, with a century-long family education, their allegiance lay firmly with their families.
Despite Fang Konglin’s alarming words, Nie Sanling remained expressionless. While his words fueled the call for retreat, Nie Sanling knew Fang Konglin opposed withdrawing. If they retreated, the family within the domain would face Nine Realms Dynasty’s revenge. With Heaven and Earth Domains so close, who else would they attack?
"However."
Fang Konglin took a deep breath and continued, "Has anyone considered why the Nine Realms Dynasty targeted our rear? We’ve set a defensive periter with spatial blockades. Even if they have special ans to send soldiers out, it would cost them dearly. What does everyone think the Nine Realms Dynasty aims for by dispatching their army at such a pivotal mont?"
Zuo Ku chid in, "Of course, to force us to retreat, allowing them a breather."
"Precisely!" Fang Konglin nodded approvingly, adding, "Everyone, the Nine Realms Dynasty paid a hefty price to deploy troops outside our domain, intending to disturb your minds and break the alliance’s blockade in the Sky Domain. This is their desperate ploy! If we retreat and return to our domains to defend our families, yes, it preserves your families temporarily. But without the alliance’s pressure, can we alone withstand the behemoth of the Nine Realms Dynasty? Shifting troops back, we’d lose much more!"
