Chapter 1924 Acting
The leader of the third legion had just raised an arm and was about to respond to Xu Yang’s inquiry, when the other two leaders of the other legions around him stood out to object at the first opportunity, with the one on the right of them being so arrogant that he drew the longsword at his waist and pressed it against the front of Xu Yang and the leader of the third legion.
”All the leaders of the ten legions each had a chance to compete fairly, why are you giving this opportunity to him?
Even if you are the only witness who saw the Yongyue Emperor heading towards having fallen, I’m afraid you don’t have this right to interfere with our Yongyue Empire’s internal succession decisions as an outsider.”
Xu Yang didn’t even look at this fellow, only gently revealing a cold smile, and lifting a finger to aim at the fellow who had just blurted out his words to himself.
In just a split second’s effort, a brilliant light shot out from Xu Yang’s eyes, and in front of all the legion leaders, he directly shot a large hole in the head of the guy who had voiced his objections, and the guy’s soul world instantly collapsed, and the entire person completely lost the fluctuation of his soul breath, and just frankly collapsed helplessly.
Undoubtedly, this was Xu Yang’s means of killing a chicken to make an example out of a monkey and using it to deter all the other chiefs of the same level.
”This is a world where the strong are honored.
Everyone is qualified to fight for the right to speak for themselves, but the bargaining chip is naturally their own strength, if you don’t have enough strength then please keep your mouth shut, or else it’s very likely that you’ll incur the trouble of killing yourself as a result.
How is it?
Have you thought it over?
Give me a clear answer.”
Xu Yang reopened his mouth to inquire towards the leader of the Third Legion, the other party did not hesitate this time and directly raised his right hand to Xu Yang’s chest.
”I am willing to accept Your Excellency’s guidance to become the new generation of kings of the Neverwinter Nights Empire, and I am also willing to lead this empire towards a better and glorious future.”
Xu Yang could naturally see that every legion leader around him was quite unconvinced by this result, but because of Xu Yang’s overly powerful personal strength, these guys had no way to explicitly fight against his decision, and could only accept it silently with patience on the side.
Xu Yang is very clear, even if this guy was forced by himself to support the position of emperor, once he chooses to leave later, I’m afraid he will have more trouble.
In order to help this fellow make his identity as the Eternal Night Emperor real, Xu Yang once again slowly spoke.
”The throne is right behind me, but you want to step on it also Xu Yang rely on your own strength.
Nowadays, the Neverwinter Night Empire is about to face the conquest of the allied armies of the other major empires of the Ancient Martial Divine Path.
I think this should be the perfect opportunity for you to prove your strength and leadership.
If you are able to lead the major legions of sea beasts to withstand the attack of the allied armies of the various empires, then there is no doubt that no one in this empire would dare to utter a word of disapproval of you inheriting the throne of the emperor.
If you don’t have this kind of ability, even if I, as an outsider, support you no matter how much, you won’t be able to sit in this position.
In the end, everything will depend on the results of your own efforts.
That’s all I can do.”
The leader of the Third Legion nodded with a grave expression on his face, he understood that the steps Xu Yang had been able to pave for himself were already high enough, and now he only needed to take this final step in order to achieve his unparalleled imperial career.
”Your Excellency, don’t worry, I will definitely not let you disappoint all the people of the entire Neverwinter Nights Empire.
All commanders of the ten legions, listen to the order!”
This fellow had just stepped onto the lofty throne with his front foot, and immediately began to give orders to the leaders of the various parties of the legions below him, and due to Xu Yang’s personal presence, none of these leaders dared to make a move of resistance at all, and all of them were the first to kneel on one knee to the leader of the third legion, who was temporarily occupying the position of the emperor.
”Now I order you all as Acting Emperors, all of you immediately lead your legion forces to gather along the coast of the Imperial Islands.
Wait at any time for our enemies to enter within the boundaries of the sea we occupy.”
It could be seen that this guy’s own leadership was still outstanding, and now the biggest problem was that the ten legion leaders were not convinced.
And Xu Yang also successfully utilized the leader of the third legion to support him to the top, creating a reasonable opportunity for himself to control the entire Yongyue Empire legion.
Two days later tens of thousands of allied forces on the Sea of the Martial God swept in, decimating an unknown number of powerful sea beast warriors along the way.
In the end, the large force assembled in the middle of the sea at the edge of the Neverwinter Nights Empire’s island.
Without a doubt, this definitely counted as the largest strife between empires within the Ancient Martial Divine Path region in thousands of years.
And this epic showdown was also arranged by Xu Yang.
After receiving the help of the Star Empire’s empress, he had successfully established this pinnacle showdown.
Unbeknownst to him, Xu Yang’s ultimate goal was to use this battle to draw out the dark forces that were lurking behind the scenes.
The two sides of this show really worked together seamlessly.
Because of Xu Yang’s interlude, the top leaders of the several empires all knew very well that the real purpose of this battle was not to inflict a substantial fatal blow on the Neverwinter Nights Empire at all.
Hundreds of thousands of martial artists from the two camps were all involved in the confrontation, and indeed, a small number of them had fallen in this battle.
This also includes a large number of berserk sea beasts, all of which contributed their own powerful fighting force in this battlefield, and eventually even sacrificed their own lives for the glory of the war.
Until the night three days after the start of the war.
Both sides temporarily retreated 500 miles into a state of rest and recuperation.
In the tent, the acting emperor of the Eternal Night Empire, accompanied by Xu Yang himself, briefly organized the number of casualties of the sea beast warriors in the battle.
With a total investment of 500,000 sea beasts, more than 50,000 had fallen.
And those sea beast warriors who lost their life force were still floating in the offshore area with a large number of sea beast corpses, still emitting life force that hadn’t completely dried up.
And these sea beast corpses were all guided by the power of the trident, quietly guided down to the sea surface of the target area according to Xu Yang’s orders.
That place had also been marked by Xu Yang himself before the operation, and he intended to wait there for the Dark Force Disciples to show themselves.
Sure enough, everything was slowly advancing according to the rhythm Xu Yang had imagined, and right in the dead of night a large number of large numbers of Dark Force powerhouses suddenly appeared over the Sea of Martial Gods.
These strange and unpredictable dark forces deliberately chose a path that perfectly avoided all the eyes of the two camps, and silently began to approach the exclusive sea area outlined by Xu Yang, obviously they did not want to alert the snakes, and their only purpose was to devour the energy in the bodies of the tens of thousands of sea beasts.
Xu Yang, who had prepared for this, immediately dived into the vicinity of this sea, utilizing his powerful spiritual power to directly determine the number of dark forces that had gathered together this time in the underwater area.
