Capítulo 916: Chapter 561: The Tide of Destiny, Great Tang Joins the War! (2)

“Only in this way can we demonstrate our determination in the decisive battle between the Primordial Heavenly Court and the Yanhuang Heavenly Court!”

“Since the establishment of the Heavenly Court, there has never been any surrender or peace talks. The audacity of Gold Star Taibai suggesting we negotiate is clearly misleading the masses, and he must be killed!”

“…”

Needless to say!

Gold Star Taibai’s words were like stirring up a hornet’s nest, causing the Gods of the Primordial Heavenly Court to bristle with anger!

The Jade Emperor could not tell if they were sincere or just putting on a show.

In any case, at this moment, the meaning expressed by the Gods of the Heavenly Court was singular — to execute Gold Star Taibai for his misleading words!

It was clear that the Gods of the Primordial Heavenly Court had no intention of negotiating with Yanhuang this year!

The Jade Emperor and Queen Mother, having ruled the Primordial Heavenly Court for hundreds of thousands of years, always stood aloof and naturally would not consider negotiating!

Otherwise, the revered Primordial Heavenly Court would entirely lose its former dignity.

“Erlang God, you must immediately lead the generals to the Third Layer Heaven to provide support, and ensure you block the members of the Yanhuang Heavenly Court in the Third Layer Heaven!”

The Jade Emperor and Queen Mother exchanged a glance, then turned to Erlang God nearby, giving him a strict order!

“Yes, Your Majesty!” Although Erlang God often opposed the Jade Emperor, facing the life and death survival of the Primordial Immortal Court, he still chose to stand by Primordial Heavenly Court!

For no other reason than that he, too, is a member of the Primordial Heavenly Court!

“Queen Mother, how about you and I jointly guard the Fourth Layer Heaven?”

After giving the order, the Jade Emperor turned to his wise consort, Queen Mother, and spoke his suggestion from the heart!

“Okay!”

Queen Mother naturally had no objections, as she was the highest ruler in the Heavenly Court besides the Jade Emperor.

She also did not wish for the Primordial Heavenly Court to be overthrown by the Yanhuang Heavenly Court!

Outside the Palace of the Polestar, Nezha appeared nonchalant, showing not a trace of stress!

“Second Brother, do you think our Heavenly Court’s odds are better, or are the Yanhuang Heavenly Court’s odds better in this round?!” Nezha asked with a smile!

“Heh!”

Erlang God slightly shook his head, not declaring which side would win!

Currently, his Heavenly Eye is destroyed, and his power is seriously weakened.

Unable to use the Heavenly Eye to see past and future events, it’s difficult to determine who will win or lose!

Moreover, the matter involves the Qi Fortune battle between the Yanhuang Hall and the Primordial Heavenly Court!

With his current cultivation level, he cannot use Qi Fortune to predict who can win!

However, after contemplating for a moment, he still expressed his view!

“The Heavenly Court has existed for hundreds of thousands of years and has become utterly decayed!

In the past, the Heavenly Court underwent a grand transformation once every hundred thousand years, but under the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother, it has been unchanged for hundreds of thousands of years!

This does not align with the principles of the Dao!

However, although the Heavenly Court is decayed, a centipede dies but never falls!

On the surface, the high-end combat force of the Yanhuang Heavenly Court is superior to that of the Primordial Heavenly Court, but in reality, the heritage of the Primordial Heavenly Court is more formidable than that of the Yanhuang Heavenly Court!

Ultimately, who can triumph is still hard to say…”

After hearing this, Nezha slightly furrowed his brows.

Though Erlang God Yang Jian did not state who would win in the end, looking at the current situation, the downfall of the Primordial Heavenly Court is only a matter of time!

No matter how substantial the foundation of the Primordial Heavenly Court is, facing the tide of the times, the ultimate result will not change!

“Second Brother, I want to ask you something…

If the Heavenly Court indeed loses, I mean in case this happens, what will become of the two of us?”

At this moment, Nezha put aside his playful attitude, seeking insight into Yang Jian’s future plans!

Because at this time, it is necessary to plan for the future!

However, Yang Jian had not considered this issue. Hearing Nezha’s question, he frowned immediately.

Seeing him remain silent, Nezha asked a second question: “If the Yanhuang Heavenly Court wins, will they spare us?”

“This…”

Erlang God Yang Jian was stumped; this question he could not answer either!

Because he is not a member of the Yanhuang Heavenly Court, he doesn’t know Yanhuang Heavenly Court’s final plans, so he cannot give a definitive answer!

Nezha sighed: “Perhaps the Yanhuang Heavenly Court has the heart to accommodate others!”

With these words!

It seemed very uncertain!

Clearly unable to determine the Yanhuang Heavenly Court’s affairs!

“Brother, discussing this is somewhat premature, let’s take it step by step, who knows what the future holds?

By then, even if the Yanhuang Heavenly Court cannot accommodate us, in this vast world, there’s bound to be a place for us!

At worst, you can come back with me to Guan River Mouth, I refuse to believe the Yanhuang Heavenly Court has such immense power, that they’d still trouble the two of us…” Erlang God Yang Jian patted Nezha’s shoulder, advising him not to worry too much.

At this moment it hasn’t reached the worst stage, let’s take it one step at a time!

In the First Layer Heaven!

It has already been completely altered!

With Li Yuanba’s involvement, the battle scene has drastically changed!

It has almost turned into raw physical combat, leaving behind previous array conflicts!

The Great Emperor Wushi then deployed the Investiture of the Gods to eliminate the remaining members. Although he initially intended to tie down the living forces of the Primordial Heavenly Court, with Li Yuanba now in the picture, he has no choice but to change strategies and choose to hunt down Heavenly Court members!

Meanwhile, in the Human World, in the Great Tang Empire, Divine Capital Chang’an City!

Taiji Palace.

Li Shimin and a group of officials stood before the hall, looking up to the sky, observing the battle through the heavens!

When they saw the silhouette of Li Yuanba, they were instantly dumbfounded!

“Your Majesty, I seem to see Prince Zhao of the Western Mansion joining the fight!”

“I see it too!”

“Prince Zhao has joined which camp?”

“Do we even need to think? Surely it’s the Yanhuang camp!

Now, with Prince Zhao’s participation, the fate of our Great Tang Empire is entirely bet on the Yanhuang Heavenly Court!”

“…”

The civil and military officials of Great Tang began to discuss upon seeing this scene!

Li Shimin of the Great Tang Empire, seeing the situation, frowned deeply, his gaze fixed on the sky, a flame of determination igniting in his heart!

He has always been a heroic leader, fearless of heaven and earth.

Originally, due to inferior strength, he had to submit under the domination of the Primordial Heavenly Court.

But as the Western Heaven’s scripture retrieval was completed and Xuanzang brought back the Buddhist Sect’s cultivation method, the strength of Great Tang saw a transformative change.

The heroic heart within this lord began to stir!

Now, with Li Yuanba taking part in the battle of the two Heavenly Courts, his heart suddenly became active!

At this point, even if he chooses not to intervene, he will inevitably be seen as being on the side of the Yanhuang Heavenly Court!

Thus, the best plan now is just one — to lead the elite forces of the Great Tang Empire into the Primordial Heavenly Realm, to be involved in the battle between the two Heavenly Courts!

“The Primordial Heavenly Court has gone too far, I have decided to declare war on the Primordial Heavenly Court, to lend a hand to the Yanhuang Heavenly Court!

All of you, faithful ministers, gather the troops immediately, I will head to the Primordial Heavenly Realm to support the Yanhuang Heavenly Court!”

As Li Shimin’s words faded, the officials of Great Tang were all taken aback!

While they had guessed that Li Shimin would break ties with the Heavenly Court, they didn’t expect it to happen so swiftly!

For a moment, they were unsure of what to do!

“Your Majesty, at this moment, is it not too early to join the battle? Though the Primordial Heavenly Court is decayed, a centipede dies but never falls, participating in the battle now is not conducive to the development of our Great Tang Empire!”

At that moment!

A discordant voice suddenly sounded, directly breaking the fervor that Li Shimin’s words had generated, attracting countless gazes!

Upon seeing that the speaker was Wei Zheng, everyone displayed expressions akin to mild exasperation!

“Lord Wei, at this time, can you not spoil the mood? Prince Zhao has already acted in the Heavenly Court, whether we join the battle or not, the Primordial Heavenly Court will define us as being on the Yanhuang Heavenly Court’s side.

Once they achieve final victory, what awaits us will be unprecedented revenge!

Rather than waiting for their revenge, it’s better to take proactive steps, helping the Yanhuang Heavenly Court tackle them…”

Qin Qiong immediately jumped out, once regarded as the War God of Great Tang!

His combat prowess ranks among the top in Great Tang, now, upon hearing Li Shimin’s order to aid the Yanhuang Heavenly Court in attacking the Primordial Heavenly Court, his blood surged with passion.

He intended to lead the Great Tang army to the Primordial Heavenly Realm, aiding the Yanhuang Heavenly Court in defeating the Primordial Heavenly Court.

But then Wei Zheng cut in with such a statement, clearly attempting to prevent Great Tang from sending out troops!

This does not align with the interests of the military men, nor the intent of Li Shimin!

Hence, he stepped out, to refute Wei Zheng’s words.
