Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

The Eastern Territory bordered the Central Hengduan Mountains.

Here stood a colossal city.

The city was incredibly magnificent, with all its walls forged from high mountains. The buildings within were brand new, and the population was enormous. The wide streets, extending in all directions, bustled with commerce and were heavily patrolled by numerous troops.

This was the Black Sun Imperial City.

It was a newly built city.

Being able to construct such a city in just a month was, of course, not the work of ordinary people, but the means of those in the cultivation world.

“Your Majesty, our legions are ready for battle. Should we take the initiative to attack?

The Dawn Imperial Dynasty's army remains stubbornly entrenched, which is unlike their usual style.

It seems the Emperor of the Dawn Imperial Dynasty lacks confidence and is wary of our Black Sun Imperial Dynasty, leading him to keep his armies within the passes of their territory.

They currently lack the confidence to fight, which will undoubtedly affect their morale. Why don't we strike them unexpectedly, seize their border towns, capture the passes, and gradually蚕食 their territory!”

“Foolish!”

The Black Sun Emperor, seated on the throne, was a middle-aged man with sharp eyes and a strong aura and imposing presence.

“If the Dawn Imperial Dynasty's armies were so easily defeated, then the dozens of other imperial dynasties wouldn't have been completely swallowed up by them.

In recent years, the major imperial dynasties have suffered successive defeats. On the battlefield, no army has been able to withstand a single charge from the Xuanjia Army.

Who among you has the confidence to withstand the Xuanjia Army?

Moreover, they are now defending from a position of strength, making an assault highly difficult. Such an action would be extremely unwise.”

“Your Majesty is wise!” The vassal king who spoke, formerly the ruler of an imperial dynasty, now a subject, hastily flattered and then said, “If Your Majesty could deploy the Black Sun Legion, defeating the Xuanjia should not be difficult.

Although the Xuanjia are strong, it is only because they have not encountered a powerful opponent before. Compared to the Black Sun Legion from the starry sky, there should be a difference in strength.”

“How many soldiers of the Black Sun Legion do you want to sacrifice?”

The Black Sun Emperor's eyes turned cold, scaring the vassal king into a shudder. Cold sweat instantly poured down like rain, and he knelt on the ground with a thud. “Your Majesty, please calm your anger. This subject dares not, this subject did not mean that, this subject…”

“Enough!”

The Black Sun Emperor waved his hand and said in a deep voice, “You all must understand that defeating the Xuanjia is not an easy task. If we were to engage in a direct confrontation, our Black Sun Legion would only achieve a pyrrhic victory, let alone launching an assault!

The best approach is to wait for them to attack. We defend the city, and only by occupying a position of advantage can we reduce casualties, deplete the Xuanjia Army's numbers, and weaken the Dawn Imperial Dynasty's forces.”

“Your Majesty is wise and mighty! In recent years, the Dawn Imperial Dynasty has been expanding frantically, and their ambition is well known. Their goal of unifying the Eastern Territory is only a small part of it.

It is said that Jun Wuxie once ruled the entire starry sky in the lower realm, which shows his wolfish ambition. He probably also harbors the ambition of unifying the entire cultivation world!

As long as we confine the Dawn Imperial Dynasty to the Eastern Territory, we can limit its development, gradually weaken its strength, and then find an opportunity to defeat it in one fell swoop!”

“Well, what you say is precisely what I have in mind. Furthermore, the imperial dynasty still needs to be rectified, and the strength of your legions is weak, requiring an increase in combat power.

Defensive warfare is currently our best option.

Our task is to contain and find opportunities to defeat the Dawn Imperial Dynasty. As for Jun Wuxie, someone will naturally deal with him in other ways. A two-pronged approach is the most prudent strategy.

Once we make a strategic misjudgment and lose the entire Eastern Territory, then on this Canglan Ancient Star, there will be no hope of containing the Dawn Imperial Dynasty.

If the Dawn Imperial Dynasty uses the entire Canglan as its foundation, its future development potential is unimaginable!”

… …

The Central Territory, Heavenly Dao Academy.

The three Eternal Giants also looked at several Eternal experts in front of them and said, "How accurate is the information?"

“Ancient Ancestor, the information is very accurate. We have personally verified it and can confirm that the Black Sun Imperial Dynasty in the Eastern Territory is related to the Eternal force, the Black Sun Holy Dynasty, of a certain ancient life star in the starry sky.

The ruler of the Black Sun Imperial Dynasty in the Eastern Territory has been confirmed to be a certain prince of the Black Sun Holy Dynasty in the starry sky.

He came to Canglan, merged hundreds of imperial dynasties, and formed the current Black Sun Imperial Dynasty.

Obviously, there must be dark creatures instigating this behind the scenes.

The Black Sun Holy Dynasty once participated in the plunder of various ancient life stars and participated in the Eternal forces that resisted darkness, accumulating a profound foundation. Its strength is unfathomable, and it is probably not weaker than the Fallen Red Dust.

Now, the Fallen Red Dust, the Soul Hunting Sacred Hall, the Heavenly Purity Sacred Sect, and the Black Sun Holy Dynasty are united to target the Dawn Imperial Dynasty. Subsequently, a large amount of resources will probably be sent to the Canglan Black Sun Imperial Dynasty, and this imperial dynasty's strength will skyrocket.

After all, they don't treat the armies of those hundreds of imperial dynasties as people and will probably use some forbidden methods to improve their cultivation.

In addition to these forces, it is currently unknown whether other forces are participating behind the scenes.

After all, if they are hiding behind the scenes, it will be difficult for us to find out.”

“In that case, the Black Sun Holy Dynasty has already submitted to darkness.” The three Giants looked solemn, “I wonder how many forces in this starry sky have now submitted to the feet of darkness.

Jun Shen has been in closed-door cultivation these days. I don't know what kind of decision he will make when he knows this news.

If we Giants participate, even if there are many Eternal forces behind them, the Black Sun Imperial Dynasty will have to withdraw from Canglan.

Even if they had ten times the courage, they would not dare to come to Canglan to fight at the current node in time!”

They were very confident, having the Heavenly Dao Divine Protection Array.

The Heavenly Dao Academy adheres to the will of the Heavenly Dao and has obtained the approval of the planetary will of the Canglan Ancient Star. The power of the Heavenly Dao Divine Protection Array is incredibly strong.

If it is a Giant who has just entered the Ten Directions Myth realm, even if dozens of them come, it will be useless and they will not even be able to shake the formation, unless a large number of stronger Giants come and join forces to block the formation's bombardment.

“Send a message to Miss Jing Ya and ask her to inform Jun Shen of this matter. We will wait for Jun Shen's message and see what he means. Before that, it is best not to act rashly.”

After discussing among themselves, the three Giants reached a unanimous decision.

“You may withdraw and continue to investigate the news about the forces behind the Black Sun Imperial Dynasty.”

They immediately wrote a talisman and sent it out.

Almost instantly, Jing Ya received the talisman.

She was currently with Linglong and others. After reading the talisman, her expression became slightly solemn.

Linglong and the others took it and looked at it, and their hearts also sank. “It seems that Jun Shen and the Dawn Imperial Dynasty have become thorns in the eyes and flesh of many forces in the starry sky.

These forces, who participated in the plunder in previous eras, are worried that the Dawn Imperial Dynasty will become stronger in the future and settle accounts with them. Under such circumstances, it is normal for dark creatures to come forward and submit to the feet of darkness.

Currently, the Heavenly Dao Academy has only found four forces, but in reality, how many are behind them is still unknown. Whether it is our Dawn Imperial Dynasty or the Heavenly Dao Academy, it is best not to act for the time being.

This matter can indeed only be decided by Jun Shen.”

Speaking of this, Linglong couldn't help but look at Jing Ya with her enchanting eyes, “Sister Jing Ya, we dare not disturb his cultivation. You should go.”

“Aren't you his senior sister? What's there to be afraid of?”

Jing Ya smiled and put away the talisman.

Linglong smiled and said, “Jun Shen calls Linglong senior sister because he values ​​friendship. In fact, how is Linglong worthy of being his senior sister? Linglong's life was saved by him.”

“Sister Linglong, don't say that in front of him, otherwise he will really get angry.”

Jing Ya smiled and left, and soon came to Jun Wuxie's room.

In his small courtyard, Chan'er had moved in these days, and she was guarding him here every day, sitting alone at the table under the tree in the courtyard, holding her chin with one hand, her petite figure looking a little lonely.

Seeing Chan'er, Jing Ya was about to speak, when Chan'er said, “I know everything, Sister Jing Ya, go and wake her up.”

“Chan'er, are you feeling uncomfortable?”

Jing Ya sighed in her heart, she could feel the loneliness and loss in Chan'er's heart.

She has a special relationship of life symbiosis with Wuxie and is extremely attached to him.

But over the years, she has watched one sister after another get closer and closer to him, but she has never been able to get closer to him. She feels lost, wronged, and even anxious in her heart.

She just never shows it in front of him.

Jing Ya is very clear about these things. These days, she often sees her alone, quietly in a daze, with a look of loneliness in her eyes.

“Jing Ya, what's the matter?”

Although Jun Wuxie was cultivating, he was aware of what was happening in the courtyard.

He also knew that Chan'er had been guarding here these days, and he could see that she didn't seem very happy.

“A talisman sent by the Heavenly Dao Academy, there are some things that require you to make a decision.”

As soon as Jing Ya finished speaking, Jun Wuxie walked out of the room. With a wave of his hand, the talisman flew into his hand.

After reading it, he couldn't help but chuckle, not feeling surprised, “Things are as expected. Jing Ya, tell Anning that the imperial dynasty's army will continue to guard the border and must not attack. We only need to passively defend until the Black Sun Imperial Dynasty can't bear it and takes the initiative to attack the city, or when our army's strength reaches another level before changing our strategy.

As for the Heavenly Dao Academy, I will send them a reply.”

“Understood.”

Jing Ya stepped forward, leaned into his arms, snuggled for a moment, and then left.

Jun Wuxie immediately sent a talisman to the three Giants of the Heavenly Dao Academy.

“Who made my Chan'er unhappy? Tell me, and I'll beat him up!”

Jun Wuxie stepped forward, picked up the petite girl's body, placed her in his arms, gently stroked her delicate and flawless facial skin, and stared at her beautiful big eyes.

“No, Chan'er is satisfied to be by Jun-gege's side.”

She smiled like a flower and said very obediently.

“You're lying.”

Jun Wuxie gently pinched Chan'er's delicate nose and said, "Your Jun-gege hopes Chan'er can be her true self and doesn't need to deliberately maintain her previous appearance.

Actually, you were also very beautiful when you were in the crystal stone."

Chan'er's delicate body suddenly stiffened upon hearing this, and a look of panic appeared in her eyes.

"Don't be afraid. Seeing you like this makes Jun-gege's heart ache. Be your true self, okay?"

Jun Wuxie's voice was very gentle, and the doting and pity in his eyes gradually relaxed Chan'er's stiff body.

Her eyes were no longer so innocent, gradually becoming deep and profound, and her whole temperament underwent a tremendous change at this moment.

Although she still looked like a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl in terms of figure and appearance, her temperament and eyes were completely different.

At this moment, she possessed a powerful aura. Her petite body carried its own majesty, and her beautiful, deep eyes seemed to contain the passage of time, hiding the vicissitudes of life.

"Does Jun-gege really like me like this? Won't you feel that I'm completely different from the little girl who used to be by your side, as if we're not even the same person anymore? Will Jun-gege..."

She said nervously, but before she could finish speaking, Jun Wuxie lowered his head and blocked her bright, delicate lips.

Chan'er's eyes widened instantly, and then, two lines of clear tears slid down from the corners of her eyes.

"Why are you still crying? Don't you like it?"

Jun Wuxie wiped the tears from her face, his movements very gentle, his eyes filled with heartache.

"Jun-gege clearly knows that Chan'er likes it so much～" Her eyes were resentful, and more tears fell as she said aggrievedly, "Over the years, Chan'er feels like she's getting further and further away from Jun-gege. All the older sisters are getting closer and closer to you, and only Chan'er... You're bad!"

"The true you, in front of me, what difference is there from the past?" Jun Wuxie said as he wiped away her tears, "It's just that you've always been afraid to face your own identity. If that were the case, I wouldn't be facing the complete you, and I'm afraid you'll regret it in the future."

"When did Jun-gege know that all of Chan'er's memories had been restored?"

Chan'er was a little annoyed, thinking she had been keeping it a secret, being so careful, but he had known it all along.

In the past, Jun-gege clearly only knew that she had recovered a small portion of her memories.

"I knew it from the time we came out of the Azure Dragon Gorge Secret Realm. Not only did I know that Chan'er had recovered all of her memories, but I also knew that Chan'er's Dao Fruit had recovered for the most part."

"Ah? Jun-gege, you..."

Chan'er looked at him in disbelief.

She was a peak powerhouse in the Great Emperor Realm. How could Jun-gege see through so many of her secrets?

Even with life symbiosis, under the influence of the Emperor Dao aura, he shouldn't be able to discern these things.

Then, she sighed faintly, "Chan'er wants to completely recover, but if Jun-gege isn't willing to cherish Chan'er, Chan'er won't be able to do it."

"You will recover. Tonight, we'll rest well, and starting tomorrow, Jun-gege will accompany you to see all the rivers and mountains of the dynasty, as compensation for these days to Chan'er."

"Re... Really?"

Chan'er was stunned for a moment, tears filling her eyes again.

It had been so long since Jun-gege had spent time alone with her.

In these days, she even felt that it was difficult for her to integrate into the relationship between him and the older sisters. Only she was the furthest away from him, both in heart and body.

"Jun-gege, aren't you going into closed-door cultivation?"

The moonlight洒落在婵儿眼里盈满泪水，泛动着晶莹，可是却满脸欢愉，洋溢着幸福的光芒.

"Now that the dynasty has a ten-fold time flow rate, cultivation won't be affected by this little bit of time. Besides, I also need to wait for a reply from the Heavenly Dao Academy and need to learn more information.

Back in the room, Jun Wuxie lay on the bed, holding Chan'er in his arms.

Chan'er looked up at him with her beautiful face, her face suddenly turning red, and whispered, "Chan'er also wants a lollipop, just like Qingcheng-jiejie～"

Jun Wuxie:...
