Chapter 212: Chapter 212: Battle Report

Suddenly, the soldiers that ran over exuded a fierce momentum, causing the cultivators around them to anticipate their defiance against Qin Jun. However, the next scene made everyone’s eyes widen in shock.

"We greet Your Highness!"

All the soldiers kneeled down on one knee like a tidal wave, bowing to Qin Jun, their cries resounding and shaking the surrounding blocks.

Looking around, the soldiers who hurried from behind also kneeled down, forming a line all the way to the end of the street. There were at least a thousand of them, but compared to an army of two hundred thousand, this was just a small fraction.

Qin Jun smiled and said, "Rise, all of you!"

It must be said, this feeling was exhilarating!

An exhilaration different from that of possessing a superpower, it began to nurture the ambition in him to raise a massive army.

Upon hearing this, the soldiers respectfully stood up, each one looking at him with eyes full of fervent adoration, as if beholding a deity.

Standing at the front, Zhang Jue loudly said, "Lost soldiers, would you follow my lord and leave with him? To create a brand new golden age together!"

"We are willing to follow to the death!"

The thunderous cry from thousands of soldiers was so powerful it could terrify ordinary people, but the surrounding cultivators couldn’t understand why their faces were painted with such incomprehensible fanaticism.

Could it be that Qin Jun had fed them some sort of bewitching potion?

Thus, with the soldiers escorting him, Qin Jun walked towards the west city gate. Inside the Imperial Capital, there were several teleportation spots, one of which was at each city gate.

As they continued forward, every soldier they encountered would kneel to Qin Jun and then join his growing army.

Soon, they arrived in front of the west city gate. Qin Jun turned to Zhang Jue and asked, "Can we be teleported to Luoyan City today?"

In this time, Zhang Jue had become a walking encyclopedia of the area. He quickly bowed with his hands clasped and said, "It is possible, but to teleport the entire two hundred thousand troops will likely take some extra time."

"That’s fine, I can wait," said Qin Jun with a wave of his hand, which was also an opportune moment for Bai Menghu to bring his disciples over.

Sects with Divine Beast bloodlines had always been close to Qin Jun’s heart. Even the Netherworld Holy Sect had notably sent You Fenghuang to seek out the White Tiger Sect, indicating its extraordinary significance.

Following that, the group, led by Zhang Jue, arrived in front of the teleportation gate.

"Where are your disciples?" Qin Jun raised an eyebrow and asked Bai Menghu.

Bai Menghu quickly replied, "I have a special way of communicating with them, allowing them to find me."

Qin Jun nodded indifferently. In front of the city wall was a space teleportation gate that rose ten meters high, with dozens of spirit stones embedded in two stone pillars. The spiritual power transformed into a screen of light, magnificent and eerie.

Flanked by Li Yuanba and others, Qin Jun stepped into the teleportation gate.

Zhang Jue turned and shouted, "Have General Mu assemble the troops, ready to march!"

A nearby soldier, excited, nodded and then turned to leave quickly, making everyone wonder how Zhang Jue had managed to brainwash them, to make the soldiers so loyal.

...

Luoyan City.

The teleportation gate in the square suddenly fluctuated, catching the attention of the nearby soldiers, who turned to look and instantly their expressions changed drastically. Someone cried out in alarm: "Someone’s teleporting here from the Imperial Capital!"

The Imperial Capital was now a name that terrified the entire Nanzhuo Dynasty; lately, the people who teleported from there were almost always refugees, and with no ordinary status at that, as commoners had no access to the teleportation gate.

Most of them would arrive and vent their frustrations, making the stationing soldiers miserable.

As the stationed soldiers trembled with fear, Qin Jun and his entourage strolled out of the teleportation gate.

The scene instantly fell silent.

Not a bird stirred.

Qin Jun had already made a name for himself in Luoyan City, and all the soldiers who had seen him before nearly wet themselves at his appearance.

The next second, the soldiers threw down their weapons and fled while screaming:

"Qin Jun is here!"

"The Overlord is here, everyone run!"

"It’s over, Qin Jun is coming to slaughter the city!"

"Oh heavens, who will save us!"

Qin Jun, with his forehead covered in black lines, thought, am I really that terrifying?

Daji and Li, unable to hold back, covered their mouths and laughed softly. Even the usually indifferent Zhu Yanqing couldn’t help but let a faint smile curl at her lips, her beauty unworldly.

Red Boy sat on Qin Jun’s shoulder, clapping and laughing non-stop, while everyone else also showed smiles.

The vast square quickly emptied of soldiers, a desolate sight indeed.

Qin Jun and the others did not linger, heading straight for the Roaming Dragon Inn, where Jia Xun and the imperial guards awaited—Qin Jun had not forgotten them.

Of course, a more important reason was waiting for the two hundred thousand troops to finish teleporting, which would consume a considerable number of spirit stones. To this, Qin Jun was indifferent—after all, it wasn’t his spirit stones being used.

With Qin Jun and his party being so conspicuous, their entry into Luoyan City caused a sensation. Whether it was cultivators or commoners, the sight of him prompted them to panic and scurry away.

Having had similar experiences in the Imperial Capital, Qin Jun had grown accustomed to it.

This was good in a way, as at least no one would block their path.

He could only console himself with these thoughts.

Upon returning to the Roaming Dragon Inn, Jia Xun was waiting with the imperial guards at the main entrance, as news of Qin Jun’s approach had already spread throughout the city and they had come to wait for him.

"We warmly welcome Your Highness’s return!"

Jia Xun kneeled down and after speaking, he prostrated himself fully on the ground, followed by the imperial guards. Their salute differed greatly from before, showing that Jia Xun, as the Grand Tutor of Qianyue Kingdom, was openly expressing his allegiance.

He had originally been curious about why Qin Jun had sent someone to fetch Li and Fa Hai, only to find out it was part of causing a great commotion in the Imperial Capital.

Unfortunately, he didn’t realize that Qin Jun was worried about Li and Fa Hai being captured, while they had been forgotten by Qin Jun.

"Stand up!" Qin Jun said, smiling at the excited faces of his guards, his demeanor quite friendly, though the guards were still tense and thrilled.

The Qin Jun of today was the great demon king who rampaged through the Nanzhuo Dynasty, even his own people couldn’t help but feel awe.

"Your Highness, it’s good that you have returned. The kingdom has sent word; surrounding kingdoms have begun to attack Qianyue Kingdom!" Jia Xun managed to relinquish his excitement and urgently spoke.

Qianyue Kingdom is under siege?

Qin Jun subconsciously furrowed his brow. The Nanzhuo Dynasty and dozens of kingdoms around had heard his name; why would there be kingdoms daring to attack Qianyue Kingdom?

Could there be a more powerful force pushing things along behind the scenes?

Evening Star spoke up, "Someone still dares to strike at Qianyue Kingdom right now, indicating that they are not afraid of the power Your Highness has recently demonstrated!"

Even the Nanzhuo Dynasty had been thrown into chaos by Qin Jun; only a foolish kingdom would dare to make a move on Qianyue Kingdom.

If they’re not foolish, then they must have some confidence.

"Interesting. Let’s go inside and rest for a couple of days. Once everyone has arrived, we’ll return to the kingdom!" Qin Jun said, waving his hand with a smile.

If it were just kingdoms attacking Qianyue Kingdom, then he wouldn’t worry, for they had Guan Yu to hold the fort.

No matter how many cities were lost, Qin Jun was confident he could reclaim them in the future!
