Beyond the golden doors were an empty space. The golden light floated in midair, and beneath it was a faint halo of light, which burnt with a transparent flame. Outside of the halo, Holy Flames surged all around like a golden ocean.
The moment the survivors stepped in, they were transformed into ashes before they could even rejoice. The transparent flames were not ferocious, but as long as the survivors stepped within the halo, they would not survive. The oblivious survivors surged in like a tide, and like water droplets being sprinkled onto a heated iron, they transformed into mist.
One after another, the survivors transformed into ashes.
The Great Clan Elder remained unmoved as he stared at the halo with indifference.
Suddenly, the Great Clan Elder’s eyes lit up.
One of the lucky survivors did not turn to ashes, his body started to emit a transparent flame, and his expression was one of pain. His flesh body looked like fat oil, he slowly melted away as he burnt, until he disappeared. What remained was a dim faint figure that quietly stood inside the halo, he had a blank expression, and his forehead revealed a trace of radiance.
The Great Clan Elder frowned, the Spirit General was of average quality, but he was better than nothing. The Great Clan Elder waved his hand, and the Spirit General flew out of the halo and stepped into the sea of Holy Flames. Upon flying out of the halo, the originally calm sea of Holy Flames immediately stirred, countless of Holy Flames rushed over, and in the blink of the eye, the Spirit General was enveloped by the Holy Flames, and the golden Holy Flames transformed into red color flames, which resembled a fireball that floated in the sea of gold.
The lucky survivors kept pouring in, and the majority of them transformed into ashes, with a small possibility of transforming into Spirit Generals. In the sea of golden Holy Flames floated many red regiments that resembled cocoons.
The Great Clan Elder shook his head, ~As expected, the quality of the Spirit Generals are directly linked to the strength of the person. The Spirit Generals produced by the Honorable Martial Banner of Knights were of completely different qualities. But the Spirit Generals formed by the lucky survivors does not hit the requirements that I want. They are too average, and can only be used as cannon fodder.~
Luckily, his original intent for them were to be cannon fodder, for Sophie and the rest to have as subordinates.
~There are so many Holy Flames, if I don’t use it, they will go to waste.~
He felt it was a pity towards the Prestigious Families, their disciples were far more outstanding, and might possible produce better Spirit Generals. But the Aristocrat Alliance were all experienced people and were not easily swayed, it would not be easy to trick them into entering the Light Door.
The regret quickly disappeared, The Great Clan Elder had an ambitious heart, when Sophie and the other Spirit Generals were completely metamorphosed, he would be able to sweep through the entire Sacred Saint Galaxy.
It was the era for his light, the era for Temple, the era that belonged to him, he firmly believed that it would arrive.
******************
Qiu Xu Hua looked out the window, the endless rain made him in a daze.
His request to enter thr Shang Continent was rejected by Gou Cheng WenDao, and he had no choice but to retreat, and encamp in a small continent on the supply route. He did not expect that his anxious reinforcements that resulted in him paying a huge price actually ended on such a note, causing him to feel discouraged.
Mo Xin’s fleet that was riddled with scars, were also rejected by Gou Cheng WenDao, however Mo Xin and him also were not able to group together.
The cracks between the three was something that everyone was aware of, as it was greatly related to the news of the internal strife, the hottest topic amongst everybody in Sacred Saint Galaxy. Gou Cheng WenDao was a neutral party, he did not wish to offend Temple or the Families. Thus, he held onto an unyielding stance, and had decided to wait for the internal strife and struggle for power in Honorable Martial Continent to settle.
Mo Xin belonged to the Mo Family of the Aristocrat Alliance, and since the news of the Prestigious Families abandoning the Qiu Family was no secret, friction arose between both parties, as though they were fire and water.
It was all of a sudden that the Southern Expedition’s advantage quickly disappeared.
The wariness between the Great Generals at the front lines actually happened to the renowned Honorable Martial Continent, how could this not cause Qiu Xu Hua to laugh helplessly.
But his greatest worry stemmed from a secret rumor.
The Qiu Family and him were in extreme danger. The Qiu Family were the first few to join the alliance, which meant that the Qiu Family were already on Temple’s blacklist. With Temple’s strength, if they were to suppress the “rebellion”, The Qiu Family would definitely have a difficult time escaping from their fate.
Furthermore, the Qiu Family was abandoned by the alliance, which meant that even if the alliance won the internal strife, the Qiu Family would not have good days ahead. Furthermore, the Qiu Family had suffered too greatly, and he was the only one left, which made him think of the phrase ‘a single person cannot salvage the situation’. If the alliance won, they would take the Qiu Family’s assets to replenish themselves. Qiu Xu Hua understood the Prestigious Families, he understood their style of doing things, their greed and coldness, and even the Qiu Family would do it if they were in different positions.
Regardless of who the winner was, it would end up terrible for the Qiu Family. The only difference was, one would result in the Qiu Family being condemned, the other being devoured.
Just when he was uncertain for the future, he received the news, or accurately saying, an invite, that caused his entire heart to go into chaos.
For three days and three nights, he did not sleep, as he sorted out the information before him.
In truth, when the news was spread, he felt that it was extremely strange, ~Why didn’t the Great Generals at the frontlines receive this information, but the Southern Alliance was the one to spread it? Since when was Southern Alliance’s information gathering faster than us, the locals?~
Following his understanding of these information, he gained many discoveries.
For example, he had realized that unknowingly, the Honorable Martial Continent’s reactions and responses had become passive and restricted. It was as though there was an invisible pair of hands that were quietly molding everything according to his own plans. What made him feel even more shocked was that the pair of hands were extremely coordinated with the Southern Alliance’s plans.
For example, the ambush on the supply route, Gou Cheng WenDao’s need for reinforcements while Mo Xin and him were being obstructed occurred at the same time. Along with that was the stable Honorable Martial Continent falling into internal strife that caused everyone to worry. Gold Continent Bandits, Sin Domain, Honorable Martial’s Roar’s devastation, and the consecutive defeats of the local armies, plunging the Honorable Martial Continent, the Continent with the most armies, to fall into the awkward situation of having insufficient manpower.
This directly led to the Holy Bell being rung, and the gathering of Armies at the Saint Continent, which made the alliance see Temple’s weakness, and made them have the confidence to suppress Temple.
The impeccable timing and coordination made Qiu Xu Hua suspect that the invisible black hands was the Southern Alliance. It was no secret that the Southern Alliance Leader had gone missing for a period of time, in which they had even discussed about, but everyone felt that the most probable reason for his disappearance was because he was seeking for support, like from the Gold Continent.
Even the bravest of men would had never guessed that he had snuck into the Honorable Martial Continent.
The trail that Qiu Xu Hua followed was coincidentally the Qiu Family. The annihilation of the Qiu Offense Army had shocked Qiu Xu Hua for a long time, and thus Mace Field Tradings had also become one of his focus. If not for the direct relation, such a small Prestigious Family would had never attracted any attention. When Qiu Xu Hua studied the Mace Field Tradings Family, he suddenly realized that they were a group of people that had arrived from the Western Region. He immediately thought about the series of strange happenings in the Western Region, the fall of two Lieutenant Generals were no small matters.
It was not only that, the fall of the two Lieutenant Generals directly led to the armies of the Western Region to disappear, which was buried by the series of wars that occurred after that.
The Gold Continent’s first appearance was in the Western Region, the Honorable Martial’s Roar was taken from the warship cemetery in the Western Region, Lieutenant General Collin’s fall also occurred in the Western Region, there were too many coincidences. The consecutive fall of three Lieutenant Generals shook Honorable Martial Continent, and made the citizens waver, and was also the beginning of the foolish actions of the Prestigious Families.
If that was all, the Honorable Martial Continent could still take it. But coincidentally, Gou Cheng WenDao’s successful capture of Shang Continent had his fleet ambushed, the supply route received fervent attacks by the Southern Alliance, and Gou Cheng WenDao called for reinforcements all at the same time. At the same time, Qiu Xu Hua himself and Mo Xin were hindered, and they were unable to support Gou Cheng WenDao.
After Qiu Xu Hua thought about it, all of the incidents that occurred within the short time frame was truly too coordinated and coincidental. In some sense, it was all these small incidents that led to the build up of Honorable Martial Continent’s predicament.
Regardless of how the series of incidents were completed or their impeccable timing, everything was too perfect.
With the civil war, the Southern Expedition dropped into a state of emergency, causing the hard pressed Temple to ring the Holy Bell. This decision instantly removed the shackles that Temple had on the Prestigious Families, and allowed them to see the opportunity.
~It is a seriously far sighted plan~, Qiu Xu Hua was completely convinced and revered the arranger who had planned so far ahead.
But the unforeseen events in the Saint Continent made him realize that the enemy’s true intention was not Gou Cheng WenDao, but the Saint Continent! The enemy had planned it out not to cause Temple to be too tired to counter, but for Temple to continuously send forces out, and form a weakness at its core.
Qiu Xu Hua guessed that Temple’s decision to ring the Holy Bell went beyond the arranger’s anticipation, the Prestigious Families alliance was something that the arranger could had never foreseen, but the enemy knew how to take advantage of the situation. ~In fact, the enemy is stronger than I think, the Qiu Family instantly became the first sacrifice.~
Qiu Xu Hua did not know what to say, as the Qiu Family were the one who instigated the problem, and provoked the enemy. It could only be said that the enemy was too powerful, and with their farsightedness, every step they took was extremely fatal and powerful.
At the start, Qiu Xu Hua thought that the arranger was Southern Alliance’s Spirit General Commander, but he quickly realized that it was not Bing, but Tang Tian. In such a tangled and complicated situation, lit was not the long distance control, but the capability to adapt to the ordeals.
Qiu Xu Hua laughed bitterly inwardly. Before the Southern Expedition, they had always looked down on the Southern Alliance, and only after the repetitive battles did they gradually recognize the strength of the Southern Alliance’s Leader. But they always felt that the leader never had a sense of existence.
Tang Tian’s identity was no longer a secret to Temple, to the point that they even knew of his achievements in Heaven’s Road. But to them, his achievements in Heaven’s Road were nothing, as the fighting capabilities in Heaven’s Road was too weak to Qiu Xu Hua and the rest.
But as Qiu Xu Hua sorted out the network of the entire situation, he realized in sorrow that Honorable Martial Continent had already lost the hope to win. He realized that the Southern Alliance, the organisation that did not seem to have a leader, was actually far more powerful than anything. Just with this leader, they had changed the entire situation, ~There’s actually such a capable man in this world.~
Suddenly, he thought about the nickname that Temple’s information had on Tang Tian, the Godlike Young Lad.
~Truly, there are only wrong names, but never a wrong nickname.~
The situation in Saint Continent had not ended, but Qiu Xu Hua had a premonition that the Godlike Young Lad would be the ultimate victor. Qiu Xu Hua firmly believed that Temple still did not know what monster they were up against.
He knew that he and the Qiu Family no longer had the qualifications to wait for the Saint Continent to uncover this enigma.
He needed to hand over his and his family’s fate before anything else.
