"What are you still waiting for? Use your strongest weapons and carve open the entire Imperial Capital! By then, you will be warriors of the Hell Dynasty and gain supreme glory!" Beicheng's voice rang out, his eyes carrying a cold glint.
He had come to this place today to make the Heavenly Court Dynasty pay, so no matter what, he would not hold back in the slightest.
Facing Beicheng's words, many generals looked at each other, not daring to delay in the slightest. They all strode towards the Imperial Capital, their movements appearing particularly surging.
Seeing this scene, the Heavenly Emperor's gaze turned calm, even tinged with a trace of anger. He had never imagined that his own son would harbor such a desire to kill him, catching him completely off guard.
"Prince Beicheng is no longer the Prince Beicheng of old. Your Heavenly Emperor must be careful!"
With solemn eyes, those around him spoke, not daring to show any negligence. They knew very well that if they did not leave the Imperial Capital soon, the Heavenly Emperor himself might be submerged by the vast numbers of the Hell Dynasty.
"I don't believe he would kill his own father!"
The Heavenly Emperor spoke, "Therefore, I wish to witness whether he truly has the capability or the will!"
"Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. If something were to happen to you, it would be a tremendous shock to us all!" Many generals spoke. "If I'm not mistaken, King Northwest has already brought his army. Your Majesty need not worry too much!"
Facing these words, the Heavenly Emperor's expression remained indifferent; he did not say much, but the matter had already taken root in his heart.
Seeing the Imperial Capital shattering inch by inch, Beicheng's heart was filled with joy. In this way, it would not be long before he could control everything, even the Lord of the Heavenly Court would likely be under his command.
"Reinforce the barrier! They absolutely cannot be allowed to break through!"
Those within the Imperial Capital spoke, their expressions serious. The situation had reached this point, and they clearly understood it.
The Heavenly Emperor frowned, and at the same time, a powerful aura surged around him. In an instant, this aura stabilized the barrier.
"This is the Heavenly Emperor's might?"
Many exclaimed, their hearts filled with shock. They had clearly not expected the Heavenly Emperor to possess such strength.
After all, there was a host of experts outside, but they were blocked by the barrier and could not enter.
Now, the Heavenly Emperor's actions were exceptionally sharp, leaving people in awe.
"How is this possible!"
Beicheng looked at the scene before him, his face darkening. He had not anticipated that things would turn out this way, leaving him completely unprepared.
He had thought he could open the barrier quickly, but the scene before him left him utterly bewildered.
The Heavenly Emperor, with his own power, could repair the barrier. Such formidable strength filled people with dread.
"If we don't leave now, we might be trapped here. The commander of the Heavenly Court Dynasty will arrive soon!" A man stepped forward and said to Beicheng, his eyes appearing serious.
Facing these words, Beicheng's face turned ashen. Although he was quite displeased, he also knew very well that the words were not wrong. If they did not leave promptly, endless disaster would await them.
"Alas, what a pity!" Beicheng shook his head and said, "It was almost successful, but at the last moment, all efforts were in vain!"
Following these words, many other soldiers of the Hell Dynasty were filled with helplessness. Their main purpose in coming here was to invade the Heavenly Court Dynasty, but in the end, it ended in failure, which was a great blow to them.
As the armies of the Hell Dynasty retreated, the entire Imperial Capital finally returned to silence. Within the Imperial Capital, everyone was extremely panicked. Such an event had happened, catching them by surprise.
If not for the Heavenly Emperor's might, the entire Imperial Capital would likely have been destroyed. This was also a great shock to them.
Lu Fan arrived late with a million troops. Seeing that the entire Imperial Capital was intact, his heart finally relaxed. If anything had happened to the Imperial Capital, he would also feel guilty.
After all, a million troops were under his command. If it weren't for this, the Heavenly Court would have been so empty.
"You're here?"
The Heavenly Emperor looked at Lu Fan, his expression solemn. He regarded Lu Fan with considerable importance.
"I truly didn't expect to be late!"
Lu Fan spoke, "What the Hell Dynasty did has exceeded my understanding."
"This matter has nothing to do with you!"
The Heavenly Emperor shook his head. "I just didn't expect things to turn out this way!"
Facing these words, Lu Fan said nothing more. The matter had already happened, and no matter how much he blamed himself, it was of no use.
"By the way, have those treacherous rebels been captured?" The Heavenly Emperor looked at Lu Fan, his eyes appearing serious.
"They have been captured!"
Lu Fan spoke, "Whether it's Grand Tutor Wen or Prince Jin'an, they are all under my control. Only General Chen managed to escape, but the people of Longting are in pursuit!"
"Have Prince Jin'an brought to me!"
The Heavenly Emperor's expression was cold, carrying a palpable aura.
Lu Fan nodded slightly, then turned to leave. Not long after, he returned with Prince Jin'an and Grand Tutor Wen.
"Your Majesty, it was a move of desperation that I rebelled against the court!" Grand Tutor Wen clasped his hands and said, "I beg Your Majesty for leniency. I will never dare to do so again!"
"Do you think that's still useful?"
Prince Jin'an sneered, his gaze falling upon Grand Tutor Wen. "The situation has reached this point, the imperial family will not let us go. Therefore, we can only accept our fate!"
"You see things clearly!"
The Heavenly Emperor looked at Prince Jin'an, his eyes growing colder. "I very much want to know why you acted this way!"
"Because I also wish to sit on the throne of the Heavenly Court. I am of royal blood, is it not fitting for me to do so?"
Prince Jin'an's expression was cold, his gaze meeting the Heavenly Emperor's. "You don't really think that only you can occupy this position, do you?"
"I have never thought that way!"
The Heavenly Emperor spoke, "The weight of this position is immense, and not just anyone can bear it. Do you understand?"
"Talking to me about this, isn't that too laughable!"
Prince Jin'an said coldly, "In my eyes, only by ascending the throne does life have meaning. Otherwise, what is the point?"
"So, in your opinion, everything else is simply unimportant?" The Heavenly Emperor let out a cold laugh. "This is also why you will ultimately fail!"
"As the saying goes, 'Victory makes the king, defeat makes the bandit.' I am already the defeated one, so whatever you say is correct!"
Prince Jin'an's expression was indifferent, his words showing no hesitation.
Following these words, the Heavenly Emperor remained silent, his expression instead turning cold. "There are some things you will never understand, nor will you ever become a person of superior standing! This is the difference between you and me."
