Chapter 774 (They're Coming!!)
"Long live Your Majesty!" Two black-armoured warriors at the entrance respectfully called out.
Ye Hua quietly entered the palace and was surprised to find Mu Ran supporting Cang Konghong as they walked.
This was quite unexpected for him.
It seed that Cang Konghong had finally let go of Yue Hua.
While it was true that Cang Konghong had let go, being attended to by Mu Ran was a helpless act. He couldn't harm her and had to follow her instructions.
"Cough!" Ye Hua cleared his throat.
Mu Ran saw the Emperor at the door and imdiately knelt down, saying, "Long live Your Majesty."
"Rise."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Ye Hua walked towards the garden on the side, sat in the central pavilion, and Mu Ran quickly poured him tea.
Mu Ran had no way to deal with this unpredictable Emperor's emotions.
"After all these days, are you still getting used to living here?" Ye Hua asked calmly, taking a sip of tea.
Mu Ran stood by the side and lowered her head slightly, saying, "It's alright."
Ye Hua looked at Cang Konghong behind Mu Ran and asked, "You've treated your guard quite well. Have you taken a liking to him?"
Mu Ran: "..."
For the first ti, Mu Ran encountered an Emperor asking such a question. She was a bit flustered and didn't know how to respond.
Cang Konghong, standing behind Mu Ran, was also surprised. Why would His Majesty ask Mu Ran such a question? How could she possibly like him?
Seeing that Mu Ran remained silent, Ye Hua whispered, "Well, I suppose being so ugly, who would like him anyway?"
Cang Konghong felt a surge of pain as if he had been hit by ten thousand points of damage.
"Your Majesty, it's not what you said. Although Cang Konghong's appearance isn't good, he has a kind heart." Mu Ran hurriedly said.
Ye Hua sneered, "There are plenty of kind-hearted people, and you're back talking again!"
"Please forgive , Your Majesty."
"It seems I need to punish your guard once again. Compared to punishing you, punishing him is more effective in making you feel sorry."
Mu Ran was taken aback and cursed herself inwardly, quickly prostrating herself, "Your Majesty, it's my fault for being too talkative. Please don't punish Cang Konghong again. His injuries haven't fully healed."
"Oh? So you an if he's fully healed, it's fine to punish him?"
Mu Ran felt a bit overwheld. What kind of Emperor was this? He was... quite sothing.
"Alright, get up. I was just joking with you." Ye Hua said calmly. Mu Ran really couldn't take a joke. She always had such a serious deanour.
Mu Ran breathed a sigh of relief and stood up respectfully, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
At least she knew how to communicate.
"Your Divine Steppes has already sent troops."
"Ah!!" Mu Ran exclaid in surprise, looking astonished.
"They will arrive tonight, with an army of hundreds of thousands," Ye Hua said calmly, seemingly unfazed, even a bit cheerful. 'Finally, they're coming. This Supre Overlord had been waiting for a long ti!'
Mu Ran knelt down again, saying in a panic, "Your Majesty! It must be because I've been staying here for too long. The Emperor wouldn't be so impulsive if it weren't for !"
"Furthermore, the Supre Spirit Sect has also sent two hundred thousand disciples, and they should arrive today too."
This sentence left Mu Ran feeling like her ears were ringing. The Supre Spirit Sect was also coming, with two hundred thousand disciples!
How was this even possible!
"Your Majesty, please allow to leave the palace and negotiate with them. Otherwise..." Mu Ran said anxiously. She only needed to explain the situation clearly; there was no need to engage in a confrontation.
But before Mu Ran could finish her sentence, Ye Hua interrupted her.
"Why? Do you think I, the Emperor, would be afraid of them?"
"Your Majesty, it's not like that. It's all a misunderstanding. As long as I go and explain, they won't attack here."
Ye Hua chuckled softly, "Naive! Do you think they're coming for you? They're just looking for an excuse."
"Oh, I forgot to tell you. A few days ago, two foolhardy individuals trespassed into the territory of the Voidless Empire. One died, and the other escaped. They should be disciples from your Supre Spirit Sect."
Mu Ran slowly raised her head to look at Ye Hua, her eyes filled with surprise, "Your Majesty... why did you kill them?"
"Mu Ran, why are you asking such a foolish question? My doors are wide open, welcoming anyone. But they chose to fly in and trespass into my territory. I let one of them go; that should be giving you face," Ye Hua said calmly. He let one go just so that she could deliver the ssage, not because he was giving face.
Mu Ran's delicate face carried a sense of confusion. Two disciples from the Supre Spirit Sect ca to find her. Most likely, it was her senior brother and senior sister...
The Voidless Empire was incredibly bizarre—its gates were open; they could have just walked in. So why did they choose to fly?
"Your Majesty, was the one who died a man or a woman?" Mu Ran asked in a low voice.
"A man."
No wonder the Supre Spirit Sect dispatched two hundred thousand disciples. They must be seeking revenge! They had misunderstood that he was being held captive here, and that's why they were acting this way. Everything was because of her.
Seeing the sadness in Mu Ran's eyes, Ye Hua curiously asked, "My people killed the disciples of the Supre Spirit Sect. Don't you want revenge now?"
"I can't defeat you," Mu Ran said softly, fully aware of her situation. If she sought revenge, everyone would die.
"You have so self-awareness. There will be a major battle tomorrow. What are your thoughts?" Ye Hua asked.
"Your Majesty, I can end this war. Please believe !"
"Heh, Mu Ran, you underestimate people too much." Ye Hua stood up after speaking and left. The teacup on the stone table still emitted warmth.
Mu Ran sat on the ground, looking lost and absent, her gaze vacant.
The Supre Spirit Sect and the Divine Steppes, both of them were coming. They were bringing three hundred thousand people, while the Voidless Empire had only a small defensive force...
They hadn't even seen a regular army, how could they possibly contend with three hundred thousand people? In the end, it would be the civilians who suffered.
Cang Konghong looked at the dazed Mu Ran, furrowing his brows slightly. He seed to be considering grabbing her delicate wrist and pulling her up.
However, he hesitated and ultimately stood by her side, watching. If His Majesty didn't say to stop, he had to protect her.
Ye Hua returned to his own palace, looking forward to their arrival.
As soon as he entered the palace, he heard the joyful voices of his wife and children, as if they were discussing sothing interesting.
When he went in, he found that it was actually Ye Shen and Ye Liu keeping his mother company.
Seeing the smiles on Qing Ya and Donghuang Bai Zhi's faces, Ye Hua realised it had been a long ti since he had seen them like this. He rembered that when Ye Yan was just born, Qing Ya had the sa kind of smile.
But with their second birth, they had two blocks of ice. They were always training with weapons and rarely played with their mother. On the other hand, Ah Li and Ye Yan were very good at pleasing their parents.
Regarding the reactions of Ye Shen and Ye Liu today, the two mothers didn't think too much about it, just imrsed in the joyful atmosphere.
"Daddy." The two kids saw their father return and respectfully called out.
Qing Ya and Donghuang Bai Zhi exchanged a glance and blinked their beautiful eyes, seemingly saying that they had been especially clingy today.
Ye Hua smiled, understanding the reason behind it.
