[And because the situation was deteriorating further...]
[The Sun Moon Imperial Family also felt that they could not afford to delay any longer.]
[Otherwise, it might truly be impossible to save the situation.]
[Under the command of the Sun Moon Emperor Yang Chongtian, the Sun Moon Empire began a large-scale mobilization once again.]
[Not only were many Spirit Master Sects and families, such as the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Nine Heavens Begonia Sect, ordered to send out experts, but the Great Nobles were also required to recruit warriors themselves to form an allied army, head to the Far North Province, and attack the Evil Spirit Heaven headquarters.]
[To this end, the Imperial Family had already sent people to scout out the situation at the Evil Soul Master headquarters in the Far North Province and had formulated a detailed plan and arrangement to ensure that the Evil Soul Master headquarters would be wiped out in one fell swoop.]
[As long as the Evil Soul Master headquarters was uprooted and the high-ranking Evil Soul Masters were killed, the remaining Evil Soul Masters could be slowly eliminated, and the chaos of the Evil Soul Masters would naturally vanish.]
[Of course, other methods and measures would certainly have to be coordinated.]
[However, these things could not be stated explicitly.]
[As the reserve commander-in-chief of the Feathered Guard, I knew this information very early on and felt quite moved by the Sun Moon Imperial Family.]
[Because as the Emperor and imperial family of a feudal Empire, the Sun Moon Imperial Family had done quite well.]
[Before the chaos of the Evil Soul Masters occurred, the commoners of the Sun Moon Empire lived very peacefully, and their lives were relatively prosperous.]
[At least they lived much better than the commoners of many dynasties in my previous life.]
[After all, the ancient times of my previous life were just an ordinary World, while the Douluo World is a World where extraordinary powers and extraordinary crops exist.]
[Since the Sun Moon Empire could create prosperous Spirit tool technology, it naturally had a developed civilization, and its field of biology was not to be underestimated; it not only crossbred hybrid Spirit Beast horses but also improved crops.]
[By crossbreeding plant Spirit Beasts with ordinary food crops, they cultivated high-yield crops.]
[I originally quite approved of this action by the Sun Moon Imperial Family.]
[But for some reason, I felt a sense of unease in the dark, as if a great disaster was approaching.]
[This led me to decide to secretly follow this operation.]
[In any case, with my current strength, I am fully capable of protecting myself.]
[With the first soul skill of the external Spirit Bone: three-eyed golden lion vertical pupil, Eternal Essence of the Myriad Laws - Soul Bone Skill, and the ability to completely restrain my aura through the Creation Celestial Crystal, I can achieve a unique invisibility effect.]
[As long as I am careful during this operation, nothing will happen to me.]
"Wh... what's going on?"
"Why is there suddenly a great disaster approaching?"
Hu Liena's charming and beautiful face was full of disbelief and shock.
"Isn't the national strength and power of the Sun Moon Empire decent?"
"Logically speaking, they should be able to hold out against these Evil Soul Masters for several decades, allowing Lord Lin Hanjue to cultivate to the point of being invincible in the World."
"Wasn't the last operation very smooth?"
"This time should be the same!"
"Could it be that some accident will happen in between?"
Regarding this, Qian Renxue also frowned deeply, a hint of doubt flashing across her World-toppling, holy, and noble face.
She also didn't quite understand why there was a sudden feeling that something big was about to happen.
[Half a year later.]
[The Sun Moon Empire's Emperor Yang Chongtian personally led the campaign, bringing along a group of experts from the Sun Moon Imperial Family, as well as the Royal Knights and a large number of elite spirit tool legions, heading north all the way.]
[At the same time, there were experts sent by many Spirit Master Sects and great families, including the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, the Nine Heavens Begonia Sect, and the Clear Sky Hammer Tang Family, as well as troops recruited by the Great Nobles accompanying them.]
[The massive procession arrived at the Far North Province.]
[In the Far North Province, in a core city called Tumu City.]
[Yang Chongtian set up a temporary court here, using it as a command center to deploy troops, intending to split into three routes simultaneously to encircle the Evil Soul Master headquarters, uproot it, and completely eliminate the high-ranking Evil Soul Masters!]
[Regarding this, I have been hidden in the dark, watching all of it.]
[Yang Chongtian's arrangements could be said to be perfect; as long as the plan went smoothly, it would be fully sufficient to uproot the Evil Soul Master headquarters and kill all the high-ranking Evil Soul Masters.]
[From then on, the Sun Moon Empire could gain a dozen years of breathing room.]
[At that time, as long as they could free up their hands to fix the internal issues, making the Sun Moon Empire great again would not be impossible.]
[But unfortunately, plans can never keep up with changes.]
[Under Yang Chongtian's command, the army split into three routes and advanced toward the Evil Soul Master headquarters.]
[However, the Evil Soul Master side seemed to have already seen through Yang Chongtian's arrangements, or rather, a traitor had betrayed the internal information, and they actually pulled a move: 'You come from three routes, I will go via one'!]
[The Evil Soul Master army, along with various forces like the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, the Nine Heavens Begonia Sect, and the Clear Sky Hammer Tang Family, returned from one route with aggressive momentum, intending to attack Tumu City and kill Yang Chongtian!]
[Now, the situation has become very clear.]
[It turns out that many forces, such as the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, the Nine Heavens Begonia Sect, and the Clear Sky Hammer Tang Family, were all traitorous forces colluding with the Evil Soul Masters; the previous inside information was betrayed by their people!]
[I didn't expect that many forces like the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, the Nine Heavens Begonia Sect, and the Clear Sky Hammer Tang Family, who clearly held high positions and occupied significant interests in the Sun Moon Empire, would all choose to betray the Sun Moon Empire and collude with the Evil Soul Masters.]
[Yang Chongtian's eyes nearly split with rage, his heart surging with anger; with a trembling hand, he questioned them furiously.]
['Ning Tianchou, Ye Shouxuan, Tang Qijie... I didn't expect that you all have also colluded with the Evil Soul Masters!']
['Our Sun Moon Imperial Family has never mistreated you; your Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, Nine Heavens Begonia Sect, and Tang Family... are all top-tier Sects and families in the Sun Moon Empire.']
['Our Imperial Family granted you the qualifications to run auction houses, hospitals, and forging workshops, and gave you such high treatment; is this how you repay us?']
[However, Ning Tianchou's face was cold, and he sneered with great disdain.]
['Your Majesty, our Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School's Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Spirit is naturally endowed with treasure-seeking abilities; naturally, we can run auction houses well. What does that have to do with your Sun Moon Imperial Family?']
[Ye Shouxuan also snorted and said:]
['Your Majesty, the chain of hospitals established by our Nine Heavens Begonia Sect has made such a great contribution to the Empire and saved so many people; clearly, we are entitled to charge higher medical fees.']
['Why did your Sun Moon Imperial Family have to order us to only charge commoners such low fees?']
['Since you refuse to give us the opportunity to make money, we will do it ourselves!']
['That's right!']
[The current patriarch of the Tang Family, Tang Qijie, also said with full resentment and jealousy:]
['Our Tang Family's forging techniques are clearly unparalleled in the World; the weapons and armor we forged in the past were popular across the continent, known to everyone!']
['But your Sun Moon Imperial Family insisted on developing that damn Spirit tool technology, ruining our Tang Family's forging business!!']
['Today, I will kill you, Yang Chongtian, and in the future, I will destroy the Sun Moon Empire as well!']
[As he spoke, Tang Qijie could not help but grit his teeth and say hatefully:]
