EBE Chapter 260 [Fantasy City 4]
Chapter 260 [Fantasy City 4]
Just when the two sides were about to fight, Casso and General Kto rushed to the Endless Sea.
Ka Suo said, "Father, all of this is actually a conspiracy by the Fire King. General Kto discovered that the Skybird exploded, and heard that a guard in the Misty Forest was killed by the Fire Clan's illusion. It turned out that there was a source of the Fire Clan's holy fire under the ice fog of the Misty Forest, and it was melting the ice curtain bit by bit. All of this is a conspiracy by the Fire King. He just wants to provoke a war between our Ice and Fire Clan."
The Ice Curtain is the barrier of the Ice Clan. If the Ice Curtain disappears, the entire Ice Clan will cease to exist. The Fire King's ambition is obvious. The Ice King knows that this war is inevitable. Even if he exposes the Fire King's conspiracy, he cannot stop this war.
At this time, suddenly a group of clear sky birds flew over the Endless Sea and into the Ice Clan’s territory.
The people of the Ice Clan were very surprised and did not realize that danger was coming.
The Ice King quickly shouted, "It's dangerous, everyone defend quickly."
But they were already a beat too late, and countless Skybirds began to self-destruct. Although they had been warned, many Ice Clan members were still injured.
It turns out that the ambitious Fire King has used illusion to plant fire in the bodies of many Skybirds in order to inflict heavy losses on the Ice Clan and make it easier for the Fire Clan to attack the Ice Clan.
Then the war was about to break out, the Fire Tribe crossed the sea and invaded the Ice Tribe. The Ice Tribe fought back desperately, the war lasted for a long time, and many people from the Ice Tribe and the Fire Tribe died.
The Fire King looked at the brave and combat-ready princes and princesses of the Ice Clan and felt that a long battle would be disadvantageous, so he decided to retreat first and left with the remaining people of the Fire Clan.
Although the Ice King didn't understand why the Fire King wanted to retreat, he felt that the Fire King must be up to something bad and that there must be a bigger conspiracy waiting for them. The Ice King decided to have everyone be on high alert, as everyone had suffered heavy losses in this war.
……
Back in the Fire Tribe, the Fire King called out to Lian Ji and asked her to tell him the Ice Tribe royal family's weaknesses before sunset the next day.
It turns out that a hundred years ago, Lian Ji had a relationship with the Fire King, but ended up marrying his mortal enemy, the Ice King. Although Lian Ji got married, the Fire King and Lian Ji always kept in touch. In Lian Ji's heart, the Fire King still occupies a higher position. After all, for so many years, she had nothing but what she should have. The Ice King didn't dote on her much and she was just a decoration.
In the Misty Forest, Kaso used up his divine power to stop the ice curtain from melting, but it was just a drop in the bucket and had little effect at all.
The Ice King discussed with the elders of the Ice Clan in the main hall about how to repair the ice curtain. The elders suggested using six-leaf ice crystals, which could quickly repair the ice curtain.
But in order to maintain peace with the other tribes in the mortal world, the ancestors of the Ice Clan divided the ice crystal into six pieces. One piece remained with the Ice Clan, and the other five pieces were given to the leaders of the other tribes, who were to manage them and pass them down from generation to generation.
General Ktor said, "Then I will go collect ice crystals now."
The Ice King said, "Distant water cannot quench nearby fire. We can't wait for the ice crystals to arrive."
An elder suggested, "Maybe we can use the God-killing Sword."
But using the God-killing Sword means sacrificing the life of a royal prince.
General Ktor said, "This is inappropriate. How can we sacrifice the life of a prince just to obtain the God-killing Sword?"
The other elders said, "General Kto's words are not pleasant to hear. We should put the overall situation first. Sacrificing one person's life can save the lives of everyone. This is a good deal."
The Ice King was in a dilemma. He didn't know what to do. On one side was his son's life, and on the other was the lives of all the people of the Ice Clan.
Ying Kongshi came to the main hall and said, "Father, I am willing to go get the God Devouring Sword."
Ying Kongshi knew very well that the consequence of taking the God-Devouring Sword would be the loss of all his vitality, but he still decided to go.
The Ice King said, "Shi, stop talking nonsense. Go down quickly. This is not what you should do. Father, today, just pretend you never said this."
Ying Kongshi said calmly, "Father, I am just a useless prince. It doesn't matter whether I am there or not. Besides, sacrificing the most useless prince in the whole tribe in exchange for the lives of all the people of the Ice Tribe, father knows who is more important."
The Ice King looked at Ying Kong Shi deeply and said, "Are you sure? If you go, there will be no room for regret."
"I'm sure, father, I've thought about it." Ying Kongshi said.
"Okay, in that case, it will be up to you and the two guards to go deep into the bottomless cave." said the Ice King.
"Thank you, father, for your support." Ying Kongshi said.
Afterwards, Ying Kongshi decided to go visit Lian Ji. This might be the last time the two met.
Yingkong Shi was planning to have dinner with his mother, but the Fire King happened to summon Lian Ji at this time. Lian Ji had no choice but to say to Yingkong Shi, "Shi, let's have dinner together tomorrow. Mother has something to do today, so she can't have dinner with you."
Yingkongshi thought of the trip to the Bottomless Cave and muttered to himself, "I wonder if there will be another chance tomorrow."
Lian Ji thought Ying Kong Shi was worried about the attack from the Fire Tribe, so she said, "No matter what, mother will make sure you live a good life."
"I hope so." Ying Kongshi said as he left.
For Ying Kongshi and for herself, Lian Ji is ready to tell the Fire King about the weaknesses of the Ice Clan royal family.
When the Fire King found out, the next day he ordered his men to seize the protective items carried by the Ice Princesses and Princes.
The melting of the ice curtain had already weakened the power of the Ice Clan. Now that they have lost their shelter, the power of the Ice Clan has been greatly damaged.
The Ice King was aware of the crisis, but he also knew that someone must have leaked the secret, otherwise why would the Fire King and his men destroy the items they were protecting right away today? He quickly told General Kto, "Kto, I want you to escort Ka Suo to the mortal world as soon as possible to find the lost five-leaf ice crystal."
Ktor said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Kto found Kaso and told him the Ice King's plan, ready to take him to the mortal world, but Kaso was unwilling to leave his people like this.
Ka Suo asked, "General Kto, where is my brother Ying Kong Shi? Where did he go?"
Ktor had no choice but to say, "Prince Shi went to the Bottomless Cave to get the God-killing Sword."
"How can you let Shi go to that kind of place? He doesn't even know an illusion. Wouldn't it be suicide for him to go there?" Cass said anxiously.
"Prince Shi took the initiative to go there," said Kto.
"That won't work either. Take me to find Shi." Ka Suo said.
"Yes, Prince Casso." said Kto.
……
At this moment, the Fire Clan had taken advantage of the situation and attacked the Ice Clan's hall.
The Ice King told the princes and princesses not to act rashly, but the Ice princes and princesses disagreed. They felt that they should fight together at this moment to fight the Fire King.
However, the Fire King's flaming slash made the princes and princesses feel so miserable that the Ice King put aside his dignity and said, "Fire King, please let my children go. They are all innocent. Whatever you want to do, come to me."
The Fire King was filled with hatred towards the Ice King. How could he restrain himself because of his request? He said meanly, "As long as the princes and princesses of the Ice Clan kill the Ice King and the Ice Queen, I will let you go. How about that? This is a good deal."
"We will not harm our father and mother," said the princes and princesses.
"Tsk tsk tsk, Ice King, it seems your daughters don't appreciate it, Shuo Gang." Fire King motioned Shuo Gang to come forward.
Shuo Gang understood what the Fire King meant, so he smiled and said to the Ice Tribe's eldest prince Zhugong, "Zhugong, how about I let you go as long as you kill your wife Qianying with your own hands? Anyway, if you lose a useless wife, it's the same if you marry a new one. Why bother to lose your life for your wife?"
Zhugong said, "You are talking nonsense. Even if all of us in the Ice Clan die, we will never be the running dogs of your Fire Clan. Brothers and sisters, we swear to never become slaves of a conquered nation."
After saying that, Zhu Gong and several other princes and princesses attacked the Fire King together.
Unfortunately, several people didn't last long under the Fire King and died.
Then the Ice King and the Ice Queen were also defeated by the Fire King. However, the Fire King did not kill them directly. Instead, he locked them up together.
Now, only Ying Kongshi, Ka Suo and Lian Ji are left in the Ice Clan royal family. However, Lian Ji has also been locked up by the Fire King and the Ice King and Queen to lure Ying Kongshi and others.
At the same time, Ying Kong Shi and the two guards accidentally separated. In fact, the two guards did not want to die with Ying Kong Shi, so they found an excuse to leave.
Ying Kongshi fell into an underground cave alone, and after entering, he saw the legendary God-Devouring Sword.
Ying Kongshi said to the God-Slaying Sword in the cold air, "Let's make a deal. I will be your tribute, and you have to help the Ice Clan defeat the Fire King."
The sword spirit of the God-Slaying Sword circled around Ying Kongshi. It felt that this person was very interesting, but there was something missing, which felt very strange.
The sword spirit took the opportunity to cast an illusion and controlled Ying Kongshi. Ying Kongshi's mind was full of scenes of fighting with You You, because he had always longed to fight with You You.
The sword spirit was very curious why this person's mind was full of fighting. It was also quite interested in the girl in the illusion because it had always hoped to have a strong master. The person in front of it was not strong, but quite weak.
Ying Kongshi had been trapped in the illusion and couldn't extricate himself. Fortunately, Kaso and Kto arrived in time and removed the illusion from Ying Kongshi.
Ka Suo looked at the sword spirit of the God-Slaying Sword and said, "I am the heir of the Ice Clan. I am willing to be your sacrifice on behalf of Shi. I hope you can help my Ice Clan defeat the Fire King."
The sword spirit did not say anything, but just looked at Ka Suo and looked him up and down. He was a good candidate, but not his destined master.
Suddenly, the earth shook and the whole cave was about to collapse.
Kto quickly pulled Ka Suo and Ying Kong Shi and fled outside. They were the last hope of the Ice Clan. If they were gone, then the Ice Clan would never have any hope of reviving.
However, a few people did not notice that the God-Slaying Sword turned into a stream of light and followed it out.
