Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife
Chapter 1477 - 1167 Empress Tianhong Arrives

The starship of the Daxia Dynasty had been stationed in the Tianyue Star Domain for over two months, and many envoys had been sent to persuade a surrender, but the dynasties remained unmoved, with their Immortal Boat Arrays fully activated.

It was clear they intended to fight the War Dragon Army of the Daxia Dynasty to the death.

Nevertheless, Thunderbolt Emperor and others did not take action lightly, knowing Lu Chen valued the Dynast Qi Fortune. If they launched an attack and shattered those dynasties, significant Dynast Qi Fortune would be lost.

They were all waiting for Emperor Xia's command, but Emperor Xia had also been oddly silent these past two months, perhaps in seclusion.

Thunderbolt Emperor then said, "Send another envoy to persuade them to surrender. If they refuse, we'll petition Your Majesty to see if he wants to proceed with an attack."

Just as Thunderbolt Emperor finished speaking, Lu Chen's clone appeared in the conference hall. Seeing Lu Chen's clone, all emperors present stood up and simultaneously saluted Lu Chen.

"Greetings, Heavenly Emperor!"

Lu Chen responded with a nod, waving his hand to signal them to sit down.

Lu Chen then spoke, "Empress Tianhong has broken through to the Sixth Layer of the Great Emperor Realm. First, send someone to persuade them to surrender. Inform them that if they do not surrender, a one-sided massacre awaits them."

Upon hearing this, everyone in attendance paused for a moment. Most of the emperors present had previously surrendered from the Shenyue Dynasty, many of whom had fought under Emperor Shenwu years ago.

Everyone knew well how powerful a Great Emperor who reached the Sixth Layer Realm with a path of slaughter could be.

After hearing Lu Chen's order, Thunderbolt Emperor did not hesitate, directly instructing another emperor to go before the opponent's Immortal Boat to persuade them to surrender once more.

Soon, Emperor Haiquan, sent by Thunderbolt Emperor to persuade surrender, arrived before the Immortal Boats of a dozen or so dynasties. "The Heavenly Emperor orders you to immediately submit to the Daxia Dynasty, or none will be spared."

Hearing Emperor Haiquan's shout, Spirit Martial Emperor chuckled and replied, "To think we would surrender, that's pure wishful thinking. If the Daxia Dynasty is so formidable, why don't they just attack us directly?"

"I, for one, would like to see if you can break through our blockade line."

Hearing this, Emperor Haiquan sighed and said, "I've delivered the message. You should consider your actions carefully; hopefully, you won't regret it later."

At this point, Emperor Haiquan suddenly remembered something. Emperor Xia's goal was for the Dynast Qi Fortune, and having him again persuade them to surrender showed that Emperor Xia truly wished to avoid large-scale slaughter.

So Emperor Haiquan added, "Oh, by the way, I have bad news for you. A Sixth Layer Emperor, who specializes in slaughter, from the Daxia Dynasty will soon arrive. If you choose to resist stubbornly before she arrives, don't blame the Daxia Dynasty for the ensuing massacre."

These words immediately sparked extensive discussion among the emperors on Spirit Martial Emperor's side.

One concerned emperor said, "Sixth Layer! Is that real? We likely aren't a match for a Sixth Layer Emperor who specializes in slaughter, are we?"

Another emperor said, "I've heard that when Emperor Shenwu was at the Sixth Layer, no emperor dared provoke him in the Outer Domain; even some Ninth Layer Emperors had to avoid him."

For a moment, the crowd fell into chaos.

"It's over! The Daxia Dynasty actually has a Sixth Layer Slaughtering Emperor!"

"How can the Daxia Dynasty have so many Emperors who follow the path of slaughter? We might as well just surrender!"

"This is troublesome. The highest realm here is only Sixth Layer, and none of us follows the path of slaughter. Even combined, we aren't a match for that Sixth Layer Slaughtering Emperor!"

...

Hearing the endless discussions behind him, Spirit Martial Emperor's face darkened. After an indeterminate amount of time, Spirit Martial Emperor suddenly shouted, "Enough!"

With Spirit Martial Emperor's shout, the discussing emperors instantly fell silent. Once the crowd was completely quiet, Spirit Martial Emperor said, "Do you believe everything the enemy says? Just because they claim there's a Sixth Layer Slaughtering Emperor, does it mean there is one?"

"It's truly laughable!"

"Can't you see he's trying to divide us?"

"If there really were a Sixth Layer Slaughtering Emperor, why haven't they attacked yet?"

"From this Emperor's perspective, they're just bluffing."

Upon these words, the emperors present instantly "awoke."

An emperor said, "Yeah, if they really had a Sixth Layer Slaughtering Emperor, they would have already acted. They've persuaded us to surrender so many times, yet we haven't seen this Sixth Layer Slaughtering Emperor appear."

Seeing the emperors' reactions, Emperor Haiquan helplessly shook his head. This was no longer his concern. He had relayed the message, even added an extra remark, yet some were still unwilling to surrender.

Just as Emperor Haiquan was about to leave, Spirit Martial Emperor's Law Manifestation suddenly appeared in the void. "Since you came, don't leave!"

Spirit Martial Emperor no longer intended to wait, sensing that some emperors among the crowd were starting to waver.

Spirit Martial Emperor wasn't sure if the Daxia Dynasty had a Sixth Layer Slaughtering Emperor, but certainly, some emperors on their side couldn't withstand the pressure and might want to defect to the Daxia Dynasty.

So he had to take the initiative to provoke war as soon as possible, preventing anyone on their side from defecting under pressure.

As Spirit Martial Emperor's Law Manifestation appeared, a massive golden bell emerged in the void, and Spirit Martial Emperor shouted, "Soul Breaking Bell!"

Seeing this Soul Breaking Bell, Emperor Haiquan's brows furrowed. He wasn't particularly worried about getting hurt or anything going wrong, as Emperor Xia was nearby, and if truly necessary, Heavenly Emperor would surely intervene.

Even if Heavenly Emperor didn't intervene, Thunderbolt Emperor and Emperor Zi Ji would.

Emperor Haiquan sensed that the Soul Breaking Bell posed a significant threat to him.

Just as he prepared to manifest his Law Form to combat Spirit Martial Emperor, a distant blood light suddenly flew over.

The blood light violently struck the Spirit Martial Emperor's Soul Breaking Bell, which shattered instantly.

But it didn't end there. In the next moment, a longsword enveloped with intense Power of Slaughter emerged from the void, appearing directly behind Spirit Martial Emperor. Spirit Martial Emperor didn't even have time to react before his body was pierced by the sword.

Fortunately, Spirit Martial Emperor had reached the Sixth Layer Realm and didn't fall immediately. Realizing what had happened, he quickly retracted his Law Form and instantaneously teleported to a distant part of the void.

"Who goes there!"

Seeing the wounds on Spirit Martial Emperor, all the emperors present immediately became vigilant.
