Eisen Family.
A middle-aged man with blond hair and eagle eyes looked at the content of the intelligence report, exclaiming in surprise for quite a while before he said faintly, “Unexpectedly, that person from Tanwood Country has become so powerful.”
Someone beside him whispered, “The latest news is that the figure from Kou Country is no match for him. Although we’ve only captured a bit more than three seconds of the battle footage, we’ve basically determined… Pitan’s strength far exceeds our imagination.”
“Have the two of them already decided the victor?” The eagle-eyed man turned his head to look.
“There’s been no movement from Tanwood Country’s side… I suspect the battle has been decided,” said the person thoughtfully, but with some murmurings of doubt, “But it’s been over half an hour, and still, no one has been able to come out of the mountains, which is somewhat suspicious.”
“Suspicious of what?” The eagle-eyed man suddenly revealed a knowing smile, “There are only three possibilities: Tanwood Country wins, Technique God Songzi wins, or neither got the better end of the deal…”
“The first two updates aren’t too friendly for us, especially the first possibility. We spent so much to gain the friendship of Technique God Songzi, and with Pitan’s temperament, we will spend even more… the cost is simply too high.”
The eagle-eyed man’s gaze flickered as he said, “Arrange for someone to investigate. If Technique God Songzi is dead, find some excuse to intercept the techniques he has left behind in the Empire.”
“How to intercept?” The other party was stunned.
The eagle-eyed man spoke irritably, “There’s an explosion, things are gone, do I need to teach you even this?”
The other party did not dare to speak, shivering with apprehension.
Just as he was about to leave, he was suddenly called back by the eagle-eyed man, “On Tanwood Country’s side…”
The person stood still, cautiously waiting.
“Find a way to obtain Pitan’s techniques, it’s very important for us.”
“Understood.”
…
Concerning the martial contest between Tanwood Country and Kou Country, speculations were rife among the outsiders.
Yet concern about the outcome of the battle, along with Kunad leading troops to deploy, sealed the mountains tight as dumplings, three layers in and three layers out, and any person exiting who wasn’t the King would be met with immediate orders to open fire.
External defenses were raised almost to their peak.
A full-day alarm was raised, warning local residents and tourists not to venture out into the streets lightly and to stay put honestly.
Although this would cause economic losses, Kunad remained clear-headed.
Once the King was in trouble, what future would the country have?
He had been a warlord in Southeast Asia for over twenty years and understood all too well… how many vicious wolves were eyeing this cursed place.
While various countries were taking action, inside the underground palace.
Countless branches entwined Pei Jinye’s hands.
The voice of the Golden Mother Divine Tree echoed in Pei Jinye’s mind.
“I underestimated the slyness of Technique God Songzi. This poison almost took my life…”
“I do not wish to die… thus, I need to use your physical body and vitality as a replacement, absorb the poison, and be reborn.”
Pei Jinye remained silent.
Allowing the branches and leaves of the Golden Mother Divine Tree to wrap tightly and spread over his whole body.
The Golden Mother Divine Tree continued speaking, “I really thought I was going to die, but unexpectedly… you still came. I knew you wouldn’t disappoint me… Although letting you die in my stead is somewhat unscrupulous, I had no choice… I learned this from you humans, after all.”
He did not wait for it to continue speaking.
Pei Jinye’s somewhat regretful voice sounded, “Actually, you didn’t need to do this; I would have helped you willingly…”
The Golden Mother Divine Tree was taken aback for an instant, then heard Pei Jinye’s follow-up words, “These toxins have no effect on me whatsoever. But unfortunately, you chose the wrong approach… becoming my enemy, there’s only one path for you: death.”
The Golden Mother Divine Tree was completely stunned.
The next moment, a Terrifying Power it had never seen before descended like a vast galaxy.
The sharp Power of the Star cut through all obstacles, and the entwined leaves and branches were decimated inch by inch by a Sword Intent sharp to the extreme.
“How is this possible!!!” The Divine Tree was shocked, “I’ve been observing your power all this time; it shouldn’t be this strong! How can it be?”
“That’s because you know nothing of my power.”
Pei Jinye’s calm words carried neither sorrow nor joy.
Though he was clearly betrayed, he did not care at all.
Under the operation of the “Supreme Immeasurable Demon Sutra,” Pei Jinye had firmly resolved to transform the Golden Mother Divine Tree into a Star Incarnation.
This was the enlightenment he had gained from his recent cultivation efforts.
If a Flying Sword could be refined into a personal artifact, what about a tree?
Especially a tree like the Golden Mother Divine Tree, something Artifact Refiners dream of…
To refine the Golden Mother Divine Tree into a Star Incarnation was to create something similar to a Dhamma Appearance.
“Just let me test it out on you.”
“If it fails, your life will be the cost. If it succeeds, your talent will be mine from then on… What do you say to this deal?”
The Golden Mother Divine Tree was completely taken aback, but in a flash, it was engulfed… submerged by an overwhelming force!
…
…
Tanwood Country.
“General, our defenses along the border have been virtually broken.”
“This morning, we spotted the Empire’s agents near Leaf Drop Mountain… It appears to be a family from the Eisen Empire…”
“There are too many powers stirring up trouble outside right now…”
“General, three days have passed since King and Kou Country began their war; if this continues, it’s not just the external situation–internal issues will arise too.”
Numerous officials gathered around Kunad, unable to conceal the worry on their faces.
Concern also weighed heavily on Kunad’s mind.
However, to calm everyone and maintain their confidence, he had been claiming for the past three days that “the King has gained a little from this battle and is in seclusion”…
After all, deceiving even a single person counted.
But there were even more who didn’t believe him outside.
Otherwise, those guys wouldn’t be sneakily sending people to scout around.
As Kunad was feeling troubled, his phone suddenly vibrated.
His expression shifted slightly.
Especially when he saw the caller ID, he couldn’t hide his excitement.
He loudly rebuked, “Everyone be quiet, the King has called me.”
Upon hearing this, everyone was invigorated, gesturing for him to quickly answer the call.
“King, this is Kunad… Yes, yes, yes, understood, I will arrange everything properly… When will you be coming out of seclusion? Understood.”
After hanging up, everyone looked over.
A look of joy was evident on Kunad’s face.
Although he had performed this act before, this time it was for real!
The King was unharmed!
And judging by his tone, he was in great shape.
This immediately settled Kunad’s heart.
Seeing the hopeful eyes of the crowd looking at him, Kunad proclaimed, “The King said that he will remain in seclusion, and in the meantime, we shall continue to preserve Tanwood Country.”
He then personally led a team, following Pei Jinye’s orders, and located the body of the Technique God Song Zi.
When this body was brought forth, the world was shocked.
…
“Snap!”
Another exquisite porcelain vase was smashed.

Kou Country felt both rage and fear.
But most of all, terror.
“It seems… we might have underestimated his power.”
“Not even the Technique God was a match for him!”
“What do we do? So, what do we do now?”
