Chapter 780 (Kill the Man, Take the Empire)
So, should she kill him right now?
No! She was an elder of the Supre Spirit Sect. If she were to kill the Emperor directly in this situation, it would certainly be laughed at. After all, the Emperor had invited her up here, and if she killed him, it would seem quite disgraceful since the Emperor appeared weak.
Fang iying shielded Mu Ran behind her and watched Ye Hua vigilantly.
Ye Hua calmly said, "Don't be nervous. I won't harm you."
Fang iying: "..."
'Considering whether or not to harm you! And you're saying you won't harm . That's a lot of self-assuredness you've got there!'
"Master, there won't be any problem," Mu Ran chid in, seeming to trust Ye Hua.
Fang iying heard Mu Ran's words and suddenly felt uneasy. Why was Mu Ran speaking up for the other side? Had she fallen under so spell?
Fang iying quickly held Mu Ran's hand to check her condition.
Ye Hua didn't intervene, waiting quietly.
"Master, I'm fine, really," Mu Ran said softly.
Fang iying was puzzled; Mu Ran was indeed fine, but this was also quite abnormal.
"Your disciple here, I do rather admire," Ye Hua said casually.
"What are you planning?" Fang iying asked coldly.
Ye Hua chuckled lightly, "You brought people onto my territory and you're asking what I'm planning? Your logic is flawed."
"I'm here to find my disciple, of course!" Fang iying said sternly.
"I see. So, does that an that if I allow the person to leave, you will withdraw your troops?" Ye Hua asked calmly.
Fang iying's eyebrows slightly furrowed. She didn't answer.
At this mont, Mu Ran quickly persuaded, "Master, His Majesty has promised to let go. Let's not launch an attack."
"Yes, Mu Ran is right. After all, these are three hundred thousand lives. While it might look beautiful to dye the snow with blood, it's also extrely cruel."
Mu Ran was at a loss for words and quickly explained, "Master, that's not what His Majesty ant."
Having her disciple plead for the Emperor several tis in a row didn't sit well with Fang iying. At the mont, the most important thing was to get Mu Ran out of here!
"I'm taking the person away. If you want to stop , give it a try," Fang iying said coldly, holding Mu Ran's hand.
"That's fine," Ye Hua had no intention of forcefully keeping Mu Ran.
"Go with your master."
"Wait a mont, Master," Mu Ran quickly said, addressing Ye Hua, "Your Majesty, my..."
Ye Hua knew what Mu Ran wanted to say, "Rest assured, I won't make things difficult for ordinary people."
Mu Ran nodded and looked at Cang Konghong behind her, then extended her hand to grab his.
This action caused Fang iying's expression to darken. Who was this muscular man with an iron mask? What was his relationship with Mu Ran?
In Cang Konghong's heart, countless curses floated around. How could Mu Ran... hold his hand in front of so many people? He really wanted to pull away!
But Your Honor had given an order. He couldn't pull away...
"Master, he saved twice," Mu Ran explained.
Fang iying cast a faint look at Cang Konghong, then led the two of them back towards their camp, flying away.
Watching the three of them leave, a smile curved on Ye Hua's lips.
The three hundred thousand strong army saw Elder Fang bringing the person out, and they erupted in cheers of victory. Elder Fang was truly impressive! To take a person from the Emperor's hands, this was the first ti they had witnessed such a scene!
Surely, this Emperor was retreating; he didn't dare to offend the mighty Supre Spirit Sect.
Feng Yun, seeing Mu Ran being brought back, furrowed his brows slightly, seemingly unhappy. Why had Mu Ran been released so easily? Was the Voidless Empire truly afraid of the Supre Spirit Sect...? This wasn't good at all.
With the Supre Spirit Sect bringing so many people over, how could they possibly leave easily? Did the Supre Spirit Sect want to claim this empire for themselves as well?
Feng Yun's speculation was indeed accurate. When they first arrived, the Supre Spirit Sect hadn't been thinking of occupying the place. They only wanted to eliminate the people.
But now, they were considering taking the city as well. After all, the Voidless Empire was truly magnificent!
Relocating the Supre Spirit Sect here would also be a face-saving move!
Back in their camp, Mu Ran respectfully called out to Ma Zhi, "Elder Ma."
Ma Zhi smiled faintly, "Mu Ran, I'm just glad you're okay."
"Master and Elder Ma were worried. Mu Ran feels guilty," she replied.
Ma Zhi smiled and then began discussing sothing with Fang iying.
Mu Ran was confused. Wasn't Master planning to withdraw?
"Master, what's this? Aren't we going back?" Mu Ran asked in bewildernt.
Fang iying looked at her disciple and said solemnly, "Mu Ran, do you know how your senior brother died?"
Mu Ran nodded and whispered, "Mu Ran heard about it. Senior brother trespassed into the Voidless Empire' airspace and was killed. But senior sister is fine."
Hearing Mu Ran's words, both Fang iying and Ma Zhi were sowhat baffled. Was Mu Ran blaming her own senior brother for trespassing on soone else's territory?
"Mu Ran! Do you even know what you're saying?" Fang iying scolded coldly.
Mu Ran also realised she misspoke and felt as though she was inadvertently speaking up for the Voidless Empire.
"Master, that's not what I ant. But if there's a battle today, people will definitely die. Mu Ran doesn't want..."
Mu Ran's words were cut off as Ma Zhi's voice grew heavy, "Mu Ran! Today, we're not just here to save you! We're also here to restore the dignity of the Supre Spirit Sect!"
"But, Master, you already promised earlier..."
"Shut up! Are you their person or mine?" Fang iying scolded angrily, her hand twitching as if she wanted to slap Mu Ran, though she ultimately refrained. She was here to protect Mu Ran, after all.
Ma Zhi said calmly, "Mu Ran, do you think we'd have casualties in such a small place? We could crush this place in a matter of minutes!"
"Master! But you just promised His Majesty earlier..."
Smack!
Fang iying couldn't restrain herself from delivering a slap. Cang Konghong, standing nearby, twitched slightly, but he stopped himself from intervening. He was here to protect Mu Ran.
Covering her cheek, Mu Ran looked at her master in disbelief. This was the first ti her master had hit her.
"Mu Ran! First understand your position before speaking to your master!" Fang iying scolded sharply.
Mu Ran fell silent, finally understanding why the Emperor had said what he did.
Everything he said was right. Even if she ca out, they wouldn't leave...
Because she was just an excuse for them to take action.
Ye Hua, standing on the city wall, observed everything. Poor little Mu Ran, getting slapped by her master.
She really couldn't read the situation, that girl. She needed to learn much more.
Ye Hua felt he had seen enough, so he began walking down the stairs.
Among the army, Feng Yun stood respectfully before Fang iying and Ma Zhi. He cursed inwardly; they were shaless. They actually wanted to use his own people as cannon fodder...
However, at present, there was no other choice but to agree.
Mu Ran, standing on the side, was helpless. The magnificent Voidless Empire was about to be occupied... She couldn't let them withdraw. She had deceived the Emperor. If she remained in his hands, maybe things would be a bit better.
Feng Yun returned to his camp with the Supre Spirit Sect's intentions in mind.
