The God of Thunder walked out of the hall and flew towards the teleportation array.
The Great Dragon Emperor followed behind urgently.
The two passed through the teleportation array and returned to the Dragon City of the Great Dragon Empire.
The God of Thunder said calmly to the Great Dragon Emperor:
"I'm leaving. You don't have to look for me anymore. This is the last time I will work for the Great Dragon Empire."
The Great Dragon Emperor was stunned and said respectfully:
"Thank you uncle. If possible, my nephew will visit your old man every other year or several months as before."
"No need, my time is coming and I will die soon. I will walk around in the last few days. It doesn't matter where I die. There is no need to force Ye Luo to return to his roots.
Alas, who has never died since ancient times? "
After saying that, the figure flashed and floated away.
The Great Dragon Emperor sighed, returned to the palace, and summoned Long Aotian, Long Ba and others.
"withdraw troops!"
Long Aotian was shocked when he heard this and said:
"Father, why are you withdrawing your troops? Are we not going to attack the Feibao Empire and capture Yang Xiao for revenge?"
The Great Dragon Emperor said calmly:
"The Flying Leopard Emperor has been killed by your Grandpa Thunder God. He exchanged his own life for Yang Xiao's. We promised the Flying Leopard Emperor to withdraw our troops immediately."
"Ah? The Flying Leopard Emperor is dead?"
Long Aotian and Long Ba looked at the Great Dragon Emperor in great surprise.
"Father, this is a good opportunity. Let's take advantage of the fact that the Feibao Emperor has just died and all the dragons are leaderless. Let's kill him and destroy the Feibao Empire in one fell swoop. This will fulfill your long-held ambition!"
The Great Dragon Emperor glanced at Long Aotian, sighed, and said:
"My biggest support in attacking the Feibao Empire this time is your Grandpa Thunder God. Unfortunately, he is unwilling to help me destroy the Feibao Empire.
With our current strength, even if we take down the Flying Leopard Empire, both sides will suffer losses. From now on, the fate of the country will be seriously damaged.
Don't forget, that cunning guy, the White Elephant Emperor, has been waiting to take advantage of him. I don't want to give him all the hard work in vain, so stop it.
Once the Feibao Emperor dies, Wanyan will not be able to hold on to his responsibilities. From then on, the country's power will surely decline, and there will be another opportunity in the future. "
Long Aotian was a little unwilling and muttered:
"It's true, Grandpa Lei Shen, he has such a high level of cultivation, why is he unwilling to help us? Since we have already killed the Flying Leopard Emperor, what does it matter if he takes action a few more times?"
Long Ba, the captain of the guards on the side, also nodded.
The Great Dragon Emperor looked at Long Aotian and said:
"Aotian, how old is your youngest son this year?"
Long Aotian was stunned. He didn't know why his father suddenly asked this, and said:
"You're 6 years old, what?"
"Haha, I'm just asking, if your son got into a fight with someone else over a toy, would you help him educate the 6 or 7-year-old child and help him get the toy back?"
Long Aotian smiled and said:
"Why should I, an adult, get involved in a fight between five and six-year-old children? How can I not make people laugh?"
Speaking of this, Long Aotian suddenly realized, looking at the Great Dragon Emperor,
"Father, do you think that in the eyes of Grandpa Lei Shen, our fight with the Flying Leopard Empire is just a farce of children snatching toys? That's why he doesn't bother to intervene!"
The Great Dragon Emperor nodded,
"Your Grandfather Thunder God has been an earth-shattering and powerful person throughout his life. No one in the entire Witch Star Continent knows about it. With his cultivation, he is only half a step away from breaking through to the Saint level.
To put it bluntly, if he takes action, he can sweep across the Witch Star Continent in an instant.
However, his opponent has long since died. How can he still be interested in facing weaklings like us, the younger generation? Where is the sense of accomplishment? "
After finishing speaking, he sighed again,
"I didn't understand it before, but today, when the Flying Leopard Emperor was killed by the God of Thunder, I suddenly realized that everything I had fought for was meaningless.
I suddenly understood that many times, what we fight for is not our goal. What can give us a sense of accomplishment is that we defeated the opponents we once competed with.
I have been fighting with the Flying Leopard Emperor for a lifetime, but in the end I found that it was just a desire to defeat the other party and conquer the other party. Once the other party died, I felt a sense of loss inside.
Having no rival is more disappointing than having no friends! "
Long Aotian and Long Ba looked at the Great Dragon Emperor and nodded in understanding.
"You two go down, pull back the troops at the border, stay vigilant, and monitor the actions of the Feibao Empire. If the Feibao Empire wants to retaliate, we will fight against it. If the Feibao Empire also withdraws its troops, this matter will end here for the time being. .”
"Yes, Father!"
Long Aotian and Long Ba walked out of the palace.
The Great Dragon Emperor sighed, stood up, and walked towards the sleeping hall in the distance.
The death of Emperor Feibao made him suddenly lose his opponent, and he felt a deep sense of loss in his heart.
In his life, his biggest opponent was the Flying Leopard Emperor. The two fought for a lifetime, but neither could conquer the other. The proudest scene he had ever imagined was to defeat the Flying Leopard Emperor and watch the Flying Leopard Emperor kneel down and beg for mercy. Scenes.
As soon as the God of Thunder took action, he destroyed the Flying Leopard Emperor with one move. The enemy that he had tried so hard to defeat was just a simple move in front of a more powerful person.
The Great Dragon Emperor suddenly felt insignificant and at the same time felt that he was old and no longer had the grand revenge and powerful ambition of his youth.
"Oh, I really didn't expect that the person who has been supporting me and actively working hard to survive is actually my opponent. If I had known, I wouldn't have let him die."
He now finally understands why the God of Thunder retired from him after helping him secure the throne, and never helped him attack his opponents.
...
Wanyan He was commanding the army in a small border town, always preparing for a bloody battle with the army of the Dalong Empire on the opposite side.
The two generals hurried from the imperial capital to the small border town and found Wanyankang and Wanyanhe.
"Report to His Highness the Great Prince, the Flying Leopard Emperor, he, he,"
Wanyanhe's heart suddenly jumped,
"What happened to my father?"
"The Flying Leopard Emperor is dead!"
"ah?!"
Wanyanhe yelled, feeling his brain buzzing, his vision going dark, and he fainted to the ground.
Several guards around him quickly hugged Wanyan He, pinched and patted him, and fed him a big blood pill.
Wanyan He Youyou woke up, struggled to sit up, and asked the two generals who came from the imperial capital:
"How did my father die?"
The two briefly talked about what happened.
"Your Highness, the emperor asked us before his death to immediately assist you in inheriting the throne and leading the country."
The two of them glanced at Wan Yankang next to them and said:
"General Kang, we have sent people to Feibao Academy and invited Dean Xinghai to come and preside over this important matter."
The first battle general Wan Yankang cried twice, squeezed out two old tears, and said:
"His Majesty the Emperor has already established the eldest prince's qualifications as the heir to the throne. However, now we are at war with the Great Dragon Empire, and the other side has a terrifying figure like Thor to help us. Once we leave the border, how can we control the entire situation?"
Just as he was talking, a guard came to report.
"Your Highness, General Kang, the tens of thousands of troops stationed at the border of the Great Dragon Empire have begun to retreat."
"Huh? Retreating?"
Wanyankang was a little surprised.
The two generals who came from the imperial capital said:
"The Flying Leopard Emperor made an agreement with the God of Thunder. As long as he takes one palm from him, the Dragon Empire will withdraw its troops regardless of life or death. It seems that they have kept their promise."
Everyone looked at the eldest prince again and said:
"Your Highness, please give us your instructions on what we should do now."
Wanyanhe was heartbroken over his father's death at the moment, but he also knew that the situation at hand was tense and delicate, and it was not the time to grieve unbridled.
Wanyan He endured the grief, took a deep breath, and said:
"Continue to monitor the whereabouts of the other side's troops. If they really withdraw, we will also withdraw some troops. We will wait and see."
Wanyankang nodded and said:
"Your Highness, this is very good. If the other party really withdraws, it will not be too late for us to leave. At this time, we cannot mess up our position."
That afternoon, all the tens of thousands of vanguard troops that the Dalong Empire urgently transferred to the border withdrew.
According to the news from Dragon City intelligence personnel, Emperor Dalong indeed ordered the withdrawal of troops.
After Wanyan He learned the news, he breathed a sigh of relief. With the support of the generals, he arranged the border affairs, and Wanyankang and others returned to Feibao City, the imperial capital, with tens of thousands of guards.
Feibao City is still blocking the news of the death of the Feibao Emperor.
When Wanyanhe returned to the palace, Liang Bao and hundreds of personal guards came to meet him to ensure safety.
Seeing Liang Bao, Fan Chen, Xiao Gang and others, Wanyan He felt relieved a lot.
With internal and external troubles, he couldn't help but be nervous. It happened too suddenly.
"Where's Yang Xiao?"
"Yang Xiao is still at Imperial College. He probably doesn't know what's happening here yet."
"Fan Chen, you go find Yang Xiao urgently and bring him back immediately. This is my Imperial College identity jade badge. Just take this and go to the elder of the training hall."
Fan Chen took the jade token and left urgently.
The palace hall has been sealed off, and no one on the scene can leave to prevent the news from being leaked. At this moment, Wanyanhe returned to the palace, and dozens of generals in the hall breathed a sigh of relief.
Liang Bao's elite bodyguards took over the security work around the palace hall.
Wanyanhe entered the palace hall and saw that his father's body had been preserved in a jade coffin. He burst into tears and was filled with grief.
