Eastern: I love doing good things-Chapter 199 : Ignored crisis
Chapter 199 - 199 : Ignored crisis
The tattoo emitted a strange black light, like an invisible net, instantly enveloping Fang Yuan.
Invisible forces surged like tides, tightly binding every inch of his body, leaving him unable to move.
Already exhausted, Fang Yuan found himself unable to break free from the sudden and overwhelming restraint!
This wasn't right. Wasn't Yan Taizu already dead? Could he have hidden a backup plan after his death?!
This is troublesome!
Fang Yuan furrowed his brows and immediately activated [Soul Summoning]!
The grotesque, ugly face of Yan Taizu reappeared before him.
"Tell me, what is going on?!" Fang Yuan's eyes burned as he questioned.
"This is the [Fate Sealing Formation], which I obtained from an ancient ruin. It was originally meant for refining the Yellow Dragon's body..."
At this moment, Yan Taizu's soul was violently twitching, his ghostly face twisted in agony, as if enduring immense torture, but he still answered Fang Yuan's questions honestly.
"Tell me how to break it!"
"I don't know. This wasn't my doing. I intended to perish with you, but I was killed before I could cast it," Yan Taizu's ghostly voice screeched in agony.
Not him, the damn emperor?!
Fang Yuan's heart sank. Who else could it be?
There was no one else in this place besides him and Yan Taizu...
As he pondered, a sudden flash of insight struck Fang Yuan. He froze, cold sweat pouring down his back. Was there really no other presence? The massive body of the Yellow Dragon had been right under his nose the whole time!
Yan Taizu had always assumed the Yellow Dragon was already a dead corpse, and Fang Yuan had instinctively ignored it, but who could guarantee that it was truly dead?!
Just as this thought crossed his mind, he saw the agony on Yan Taizu's ghostly face twist to the extreme!
"Ah!"
He let out a piercing scream, and then Yan Taizu's soul was completely released from Fang Yuan's control, transforming into a streak of light and entering the boundless body of the Yellow Dragon below.
Devoured...
A chilling sense of horror surged in Fang Yuan's mind: The mantis stalks the cicada, while the yellow bird waits behind!
Almost simultaneously, the [Fate Sealing Formation] was triggered to its peak by some mysterious force. The mountainous regions depicted on the tattoo seemed to solidify, coming down on Fang Yuan like an avalanche!
...
At this moment, the capital city had undergone earth-shattering changes. The once glorious imperial city was now submerged in a cloud of dust, with smoke filling the sky, obscuring everything.
The surrounding mansions of nobles were also not spared, as large areas of buildings collapsed in the disaster, leaving ruins and the agonized groans of countless people beneath the wreckage.
Including Jiang Tao and several other generals, their eyes were filled with shock and dazedness. They had exhausted all their efforts but still couldn't stop the disaster from spreading, and the capital was caught in the midst of this terrifying catastrophe.
From the time the disaster began, there had been countless earthquakes, and everywhere one looked, there were collapsed ruins and countless casualties.
At the same time, as generals of the Seventh Realm, they couldn't directly observe the inner conditions of the imperial city, but they still detected two vast and powerful auras!
One was violent and majestic, the other filled with the stench of death and decay.
There was no doubt these were the auras of Lord Fang and Emperor Yan Wen. The intensity of their auras was terrifying to the extreme, far beyond that of ordinary martial artists!
Only now did they realize that the emperor, whom they had always thought to be incompetent, actually had such strength!
With such strength, why had he remained holed up in the imperial city? If he had led the army, how could the Yan Kingdom have fallen into such dire straits?
But they no longer had to worry about such matters, as just moments ago, with the most violent earthquake, the violent and majestic aura had completely disappeared.
When such a thing happens, there are usually two possibilities: either the person has concealed their aura, making it undetectable, or... the person is dead!
The generals all leaned toward the latter. Their emperor... was probably killed by Lord Fang!
As expected, with the disappearance of Emperor Yan Wen's aura, the continuous commotion inside the imperial city began to fade, signaling that the epic battle was nearing its end.
For a moment, the generals were all a little dazed, feeling mixed emotions. If the emperor had been more diligent, would things have turned out differently?
But it didn't matter anymore. It was over...
With Emperor Yan Wen's death, the Yan Kingdom was now Lord Fang's domain, and the country would surely have a brighter future...
Only when the imperial city finally fell silent did the generals gather again. Ji Tianqi, who had been guarding the gates of the imperial city, saw the returning generals and nervously asked, "What's the result?"
He was only at the Fourth Realm and couldn't sense the situation inside the city.
"Lord Fang should have won," Jiang Tao said. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
"Hmm..." The other generals nodded in agreement.
"Is that so..." Ji Tianqi's thoughts grew more complicated, a little melancholic. Although his father, the emperor, had been incompetent, the power he held had undoubtedly come from Fang Yuan.
Now that his father had fallen, would Ji Tianqi himself face a reckoning?
He shook his head. Now wasn't the time for such thoughts: "Gentlemen, we can't rest yet. Let's lead our teams to rescue the citizens first!"
"If Lord Fang sees us protecting the capital like this, he'll surely be furious."
This statement was met with agreement from the other generals. Without saying much more, they immediately threw themselves into the intense rescue efforts.
...
Two days later, thanks to the efforts of the generals, the disaster in the capital was brought under control, and the situation stabilized.
But soon, the generals noticed something odd.
Where was Lord Fang... why hadn't he come out of the imperial city yet?
