Chapter 2082 - 2086: Ice Emperor Personally Campaigns Against Qin Tian?

"Yes, but they are far away in the Imperial City, how can we rescue them?"

Xiao Zhuang was also at a loss, "The sudden transformation of the Soul Suppressing Hall in the Imperial City into the Dragon Slayer Department, the purpose is too obvious, isn't it? Dragon Slaying... clearly targeting Long Yin, or even the Dragon Clan."

Xiao Zhuang looked at Qin Tian and said, "Boss, I heard that even the mysterious person in charge of Long Yin in the Imperial City, Mr. Shenyue, was alerted. He was even besieged by experts from the Dragon Slayer Department, and finally, the experts from the Dragon Slayer Department were all annihilated."

"Oh? So strong?"

Qin Tian's eyebrows lit up, "Even Mr. Shenyue could be alerted, haha, it seems that the Ice Emperor is really going to execute his strategy of 'better to kill a thousand wrongly than to let one go.'

"Yes, everyone in the Imperial City is in danger."

Xiao Zhuang took a deep breath and said, "But how can we help them? We have been trying our best to divert the Ice Emperor's forces."

"I have always been curious, who exactly is Mr. Shenyue?"

Qin Tian expressed his long-standing thought, "He is too mysterious, and there are too many legends about him in Jiang Hu. I even suspect that Mr. Shenyue is someone with great power within the Tianyuan Dynasty. But there is no evidence."

"Many are curious, boss, this can only be said to be an unsolved mystery. Maybe as time goes by, we will eventually know. The most important thing now is how to help Long Yin overcome the difficulties." Xiao Zhuang said.

"There's nothing we can do, let them temporarily stop their activities. With the matters in East State and South State, eventually, the Ice Emperor will not have time to continue targeting Long Yin."

Qin Tian slightly closed his eyes and said, "The situation in East State has also begun to become clear. At least, the Ice Emperor cannot eliminate the Dragon Clan in the short term. Just right, can we develop in North State?"

Qin Tian stared at Xiao Zhuang, noticing the latter looked a bit surprised. He continued, "I have always thought, I have West State, and soon I will have South State, I think I can't let North State fall behind."

"Ahem... Boss, your pace of expansion is a bit fast, I can't keep up. North State..."

Xiao Zhuang touched his chin and said, "We took action in South State, and the Ice Emperor didn't seem to react. But if we set our sights on North State now, I'm afraid not only the Ice Emperor, but the Fourth Prince will definitely be furious and launch a strong counterattack. Boss, are we certain we can face them head-on now?"

North State is the core of the Fourth Prince's power. If Qin Tian moves on North State, it would mean challenging the Fourth Prince's bottom line, and the latter will definitely not remain indifferent!

"Let's ask everyone's opinion. I think, after taking down South State, we must take action. However, if we directly send troops to echo with the Dragon Clan, then we are indirectly helping the Dragon Clan to take East State."

"East State is the territory of the Tianyuan Dynasty. I cannot aid the wicked. Moreover, with the Ice Emperor and the Dragon Clan locked in contention, I take this opportunity to reap the benefits. Besides South State, naturally North State becomes my target. If I take North State, with my three states surrounding the Imperial City, let's see how the Ice Emperor can still claim dominance then!"

Qin Tian is waiting for news from South State.

In fact, Zhao Lanjin did not disappoint him either. Half a month later, the capital of South State, South Capital, was captured by Zhao Lanjin in one fell swoop, and more than 90% of South State's territory was completely controlled by Qin Tian!

"Boss, astonishing news! Astonishing news!"

On this day, when Qin Tian was eagerly waiting for Zhao Lanjin to return so he could plan the attack on North State, Xiao Zhuang excitedly brought Qin Tian an astonishing piece of news.

Qin Tian was stunned, looking at him. Just as he was about to ask what the news was, Xiao Zhuang couldn't hold back and blurted out directly, "The Ice Emperor will personally lead the campaign! Personally lead the campaign to conquer us!"

Whoosh!

Qin Tian's face hardened, frowning, "Did I hear wrong? The old Ice Emperor wants to personally march against me? Is that a joke?"

"I don't know either, but this is confirmed news, verified by multiple spies!"

Xiao Zhuang said, "It seems we have completely angered the Ice Emperor this time. Boss, we must be careful, as it's said that he has cultivated many experts behind the scenes. Plus, the Ice Emperor himself is one of the strongest in the Spiritual Domain, an unrivaled powerhouse in the Flying Immortal Realm."

"Though he hasn't shown his skills all these years, before the Ice Emperor ascended the throne, he was already renowned as an unrivaled Immortality Cultivator with talent comparable to Long Jun."

"Some even say that the Ice Emperor's cultivation immortality talent is stronger than Long Jun's. It's just that the Ice Emperor is petty and low in emotional intelligence, so his overall influence isn't as significant as Long Jun's. So many years have passed, and we don't know how the Ice Emperor's cultivation truly is, but undoubtedly, this time he personally leading the campaign, he is surely ready to fight us to the death."

Xiao Zhuang, while excited, also showed worry on his face and said, "This battle should be our ultimate showdown with the Ice Emperor. If he wins, it will be hard for us to rise again; if we win, the Tianyuan Dynasty might undergo a change of reign!"

Qin Tian fell silent.

He was silent for two minutes.

This news was indeed too explosive.

To know, the Ice Emperor is known for manipulating power dynamics, not liking to do things himself, and enjoying balance.

Despite numerous major events, there was never a time when the Ice Emperor personally stepped forward.

This time, the Ice Emperor actually decided to personally lead the campaign. Without a doubt, the Ice Emperor was angry!

Qin Tian's occupation of South State seemed to have touched the Ice Emperor's bottom line; the Ice Emperor could no longer endure!

Qin Tian immediately convened a meeting with generals and military advisors to discuss countermeasures.

Immediately afterward, Qin Tian also received confirmed information from Gongsun San Niang that the Ice Emperor was almost ready to lay out all his assets to compete with Qin Tian, to sweep through West State!

At the same time, Gongsun San Niang also told Qin Tian that the Demon Clan had sent experts to the Imperial City, seeming to conspire with the Ice Emperor, and this time when the Ice Emperor personally leads the campaign, it is very likely that the Demon Clan will cooperate with the action.

Qin Tian was already mentally prepared, but now his biggest concern was that he still didn't know how many people the Ice Emperor would bring to confront him directly.

According to various rumors, the Forbidden Army, Tianyuan Guard, and the Imperial City's elite troops, the Golden Armor Army, these forces will certainly be brought out by the Ice Emperor.

The Imperial Forbidden Army of fifty thousand, the Tianyuan Guard of twenty thousand, the Golden Armor Army of three hundred thousand. These direct lineages of the Ice Emperor total three hundred seventy thousand.

Among them, the Forbidden Army and Tianyuan Guard are all elites among elites, although their strength is not as formidable as Qin Tian's Qin Family Army, their combat effectiveness is several times higher than that of ordinary troops and cannot be underestimated.

As for the Ice Emperor's Golden Armor Army, there's no need to say more. Back then, the Ice Emperor used this army to surround and kill Long Jun, sweep the eight directions, and ascend the throne!
