Chapter 228: Troops Sent to Western Zhou, City Breached in One Day
News of what happened at the Immortal Sect spread quickly.
This surprised all the leaders of the various factions. The once arrogant and domineering Immortal Sect was now being forced to pay compensation.
This also allowed all forces to witness once again the madness of the Eastern Qin Divine Martial King's Mansion.
Even when the head of the household is not present, the subordinates still behave in the same way, which shows how powerful the Divine Martial Royal Palace is.
This once again made all forces look at the Divine Martial Royal Palace with new respect.
After handling the aftermath, the Immortal Sect immediately changed its location and contacted other sects for support.
Their losses this time were too great. Without the support of the sect, they would have no way to fight against the mysterious Royal Sword Sect.
What's most terrifying is that now there's an even more insane force, and the most crucial thing is that they don't even know what kind of force it is.
Thinking about this, the person in charge of the Immortal Sect was in a real bind.
Since the start of this millennium war, they have not had a single good thing; on the contrary, they have suffered considerable losses in the past few years.
Although this loss is nothing to their immortal sect, it is still incredibly frustrating.
Because of this attack, everyone's attention has been focused on Qin Capital.
Unbeknownst to anyone, a large army was rapidly advancing towards the western border of Zhou.
Just as everyone was investigating the origins of those assassins.
Another shocking piece of news reached Qin Capital.
The Eastern Qin suddenly launched an attack and breached the border of the Western Zhou within a single day, massacring 500,000 Western Zhou soldiers and directly invading Western Zhou.
In three days, they captured 20 cities in the Western Zhou Dynasty.
This shocked all the powers involved.
Are the Eastern Qin army really that powerful? They breached the formidable pass that the Western Zhou had built with enormous resources in just one day.
The key point is that there is also a full 500,000 elite troops from the Western Zhou Dynasty here.
Even so, they still couldn't stop the advance of the Eastern Qin army.
The Eastern Qin Imperial Palace.
"What? I didn't order the troops to be sent out. Who suddenly launched an attack on Western Zhou?"
The Emperor of Eastern Qin looked at the battle report and angrily questioned it.
The Immortal Sect has been restricting the Eastern Qin, forbidding them from sending troops. Now, a large army has suddenly set out without his orders. If the Immortal Sect holds him accountable, how will he face them?
How could he not be furious?
He really wants to drag the people who sent the troops out and behead them.
"Your Majesty, the army that has dispatched troops is the Divine Martial Army."
The soldier who came to deliver the battle report was embarrassed to see the Emperor of Eastern Qin so angry.
The Emperor of Eastern Qin, who was still furious, was stunned when he heard the words "Divine Martial Army".
He originally thought it was a border general who suddenly attacked the Western Zhou for some reason, but he never expected it to be Qin Wu's Shenwu Army.
According to his understanding, shouldn't the Shenwu Army be on Shenwu Island right now?
How did they suddenly end up on the border of the Western Zhou Dynasty and even launch a direct war against it?
He simply couldn't understand what Qin Wu was trying to do.
"The Divine Martial Army? Are you sure?"
The Emperor of Eastern Qin couldn't understand it, so he asked directly.
"Yes, there is absolutely no mistake. The Divine Martial Army suddenly appeared on the border ten days ago. After resting for a night, they launched an attack on the Western Zhou border without giving anyone time to react."
"Furthermore, according to the statistics of the Marquis of Zhendong, the number of troops deployed by the Shenwu Army this time probably exceeded 200 million."
The soldier said with certainty.
They were all very shocked when the Divine Martial Army suddenly appeared.
I originally thought the Divine Martial Army had come for some reason.
The very next day, the Shenwu Army launched a direct attack on the Western Zhou, leaving everyone completely bewildered.
Marquis Zhendong immediately sent someone to inquire, only to find out that it was an order from King Shenwu.
"Alright, I understand. You may go and rest now!"
The Emperor of Eastern Qin sighed in exasperation.
What's done is done, so this is the best we can do for now.
The soldiers withdrew.
The Emperor of Eastern Qin then headed towards the forbidden area.
Upon meeting the Empress Dowager, the Emperor of Eastern Qin told her about Qin Wu's military expedition, which caused the Empress Dowager a great deal of trouble.
Sending troops to attack the Western Zhou at this time is not a good choice!
"That kid's sudden deployment of troops probably has its own plans. Let's wait and see!"
"By the way, what has the Immortal Sect been up to these past few days?"
The retired emperor was helpless; no one could change Qin Wu's decision.
And now that it has already happened, we can only take it one step at a time.
"The Immortal Sect has now moved to a new location and is doing its best to investigate the origins of those assassins."
"The Emperor of Eastern Qin said."
Recently, the Imperial Shadow Guards have been monitoring the Immortal Sect's every move and are quite familiar with its activities.
"Okay, keep an eye on it. Notify me immediately if there's any movement."
"Don't let your guard down with other forces either; none of them are easy to deal with."
The retired emperor sighed.
These are truly turbulent times!
The Immortal Sect also received news that the Eastern Qin had launched an attack on the Western Zhou, which once again infuriated the person in charge of the Immortal Sect.
But now they can't do anything and don't dare to go out alone.
Every time one of their men went out alone, they were assassinated.
This made him extremely frustrated.
The assassins who attacked them and that damned Imperial Sword Master are still not dealt with.
Dong Qin pulled this stunt again. If this gets back to the sect, he'll probably be held accountable.
But there was nothing he could do.
While he was still figuring out how to handle these things.
That night, the Immortal Sect's headquarters was bombed again. This time, no assassins appeared; only bombs were dropped into the mansion.
The Immortal Sect's new headquarters, which had only been there for a few days, was once again razed to the ground.
The Immortal Sect suffered continuous losses this time, except that the Grandmaster-level experts who were seriously injured and escaped with their lives last time were not so lucky this time.
They all died in the explosion.
The news spread throughout the entire Qin capital that very night.
All factions couldn't help but marvel at how truly insane this force was, launching a second attack after the first one.
While lamenting the situation, various factions were also watching the Immortal Sect make a fool of itself, a situation that is rarely seen.
For the next two weeks, the Immortal Sect was attacked every time they changed residences, and each residence was razed to the ground. This resulted in many empty spaces suddenly appearing in Qin Capital, resembling disaster areas.
This caused the Emperor of Eastern Qin great distress.
Even a martial artist couldn't stand it if it happened every few days!
His eyes are now bloodshot.
Finally, the Immortal Sect moved their residence to a manor outside the city, and Qin Capital finally calmed down.
However, after half a month, the Immortal Sect didn't have many people left.
That force then stopped attacking the Immortal Sect; otherwise, if it had continued, the Immortal Sect would likely have been completely wiped out.
This was also Qin Wu's order, to leave a way out for the Immortal Sect, lest they become desperate and resort to desperate measures.
