“Heed my order. Eradicate the Wuming Clan’s scattered remnants toward the Diming Clan.”

Zhong Yue gave his order and the millions of Wuming remnants were forced to flee toward the Diming Clan. His plan was to disrupt the Diming Clan’s arrangements with the millions of Wuming remnants. As long as the Diming Clan’s formation was thrown into disarray by the sudden appearance of millions of Wuming clansmen, its destiny would end up just the same as the Wuming Clan’s!

Furthermore, after the Diming Clan’s defeat, he would herd the Wuming and Diming remnants toward Mo Yin and Heaven Court’s reinforcements. The Diming Clan was Heavenly Monarch’s race, they were all princes and princesses and royal descendants; whereas the Wuming Clan was Queen Goddess’s race. Would Mo Yin and Heaven Court’s reinforcements dare to shelter them?

If they dared to shelter the Diming and Wuming remnants when Zhong Yue was there, Zhong Yue would definitely strike when their array formation was disrupted!

And if they refused to shelter the Diming and Wuming remnants, which one of them was strong and brave enough to face Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s and Queen Goddess’s anger?

Heaven Breaching Fortress’s forces were chasing close behind the Wuming remnants, they were herding the remnants toward the Diming Clan. At the same time, Diming Clan had received the news of Zhong Yue’s assault. Mo Yin, Heaven Court’s reinforcements, together with Feng Wuji’s wide connections, formed four armies to ambush Zhong Yue. Thus, the Diming Clan were already in array formations, waiting for Zhong Yue’s arrival.

The Diming Clan was, after all, the incumbent Heavenly Monarch’s race and were incredibly powerful. They had a Heavenly Monarch above them and four monarch weapons by their side, not to mention the elite soldiers they had trained in the 30-years of war in the Imperial Star.

The Diming Clan had many princes, although not as many as Mu Xiantian’s millions of princes, the Diming Clan still had at least tens of thousands of princes.

Some of them were even on the level of Imperial Emperors. Over all these years as Heavenly Monarch, Di Ming’s sons had all grown strong and powerful under his protection. His eldest son, the first prince, Ming Wenzheng, was the most notable among them all. He was already a peak Imperial Emperor and an experienced fighter.

Ming Wenzheng led tens of million monarch race experts, most of them were their descendants. Even the youngest of Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s children were already 50,000 years old now.

Heavenly Monarch Di Ming’s children had given birth to their children and their children to a new generation and so on. The continuation of the Diming Clan gave rise to countless experts. In addition to the resources showered on them, these royal descendants were much stronger than the experts of the other monarch races, not to mention that there were also the other outside experts that sided with the great Diming Clan.

Ming Wenzheng was vigilant when suddenly, his informant reported, “Mister Wuji has come with a few innate gods, he has a matter of importance to report!”

“Quickly, send him in!”

Soon after, Feng Wuji led a few innate gods into the tent, shouting in fear, “Your Highness, things have taken a turn for the worst! Wuming Clan is destroyed by Rebel Yi and they are on the way here!”

Ming Wenzheng smirked and said, “I already know. Heaven Court has passed the message to us, King Yi has defeated Wuming Clan and I am ordered to be prepared for it. The Wuming Clan only failed because he launched an ambush, but he will not defeat me here. I am well aware of his arrival and my Diming Clan soldiers have been trained and tribulated in the wars of the Imperial Star. We are the elites, best of the best, not like the other weaklings out there!”

Seeing his confidence, Feng Wuji quickly said, “High prince, please do not let your guard down. I saw King Yi’s moves, he is planning to herd the Wuming remnants to disrupt the Diming Clan’s formation!”

Ming Wenzheng’s face changed drastically and exclaimed in shock, “Herd the Wumings to disarray my formation?”

As they spoke, clamors could be heard coming from the outside. Ming Wenzheng quickly walked out of the tent and saw the Wuming remnants appearing in front of Diming Clan’s military camps. They were on their way toward the camps.

Ming Wenzheng was shocked with his mouth agape while Feng Wuji said decisively from the side, “High prince, please give your orders to the frontline, we have to kill the Wuming remnants before they disrupt our formation. This is the only way to save the Diming Clan! Else, when the Wumings disrupts the formation, we will all be killed soon!”

“Kill the Wumings?”

Beads of cold sweat started rolling down Ming Wenzheng’s forehead, he murmured, “No, I can’t, how can I? If I give the order to kill the Wumings, Queen Goddess will kill me for sure. She has been wanting me dead for a long time as I’m not her son yet am better than him. The Wuming Clan is her race, it’s the best excuse for her to kill me…”

Feng Wuji said angrily, “High prince, how can you still think of these at this crucial moment of life and?death? If you don’t give the order now, the Diming Clan will end in your hands!”

Ming Wenzheng shook, “No, we won’t. The Diming Clan is the Heavenly Monarch’s race, every other race will have to come and assist us when Rebel Yi assaulted us… Yes, that’s it. We will retreat now, back to the Diming Clan homeground. We will stay on the defensive with Heavenly Monarch’s array formation. We just need a few days’ time for the helpers to arrive!”

Feng Wuji grew even angrier, he shouted, “Making any moves now will only speed up the fiasco!”

Ming Wenzheng shook in laughter, “Mister Wuji, my monarch race has four monarch weapons and a monarch array formation. We only have to hold out for a few days until Mister Mo Yin and Heaven Court’s reinforcements arrive. By then, Rebel Yi will be trapped in the middle and his defeat will be ensured!”

Feng Wuji felt his scalp tingled and said in a quivering voice, “I fear that you may not even make it back to the Diming Clan’s sacred ground…”

“Heed my words, shelter the Wumings immediately and move back in retreat!”

Ming Wenzheng’s order was passed down to the frontline. The soldiers immediately opened a passage for the Wuming remnants to enter the formation while the rest of them started retreating, beginning with those on the back.

It was at this moment, Tai Feng, Long Zhi, Jiang Yiqi, Fu Yanshan, Fu Lie, Mu Suge and the other Imperial Emperors and Creators flashed out of their forces. They charged into the Diming Clan’s formation through the opening and slaughtered the Diming soldiers on their paths.

Krong—

The Fusang Divine Tree rose in the midst of the Diming military camps, towering higher and higher?as its branches twined and minced countless gods. Then, the Heavenly Suppression River Cauldron slammed down and unleashed the Heavenly Rivers like soaring dragons. There was also a divine furnace that was slammed into the Diming army’s formation, the furnace lid was opened and uncountable insect gods and mother queens swarmed out to devour their enemies!

Ming Wenzheng’s face changed drastically. The frontline was a total mess now and the soldiers on the rear were already retreating, this left the center army in an awkward position, not knowing whether they should charge forward to help the frontline or retreat with the rear.

At the same time, the frontline’s soldiers were crazily moving backward and further disrupted the center army’s formation. When he was casting the four monarch weapons out to save the dire situation, seven monarch weapons flew out from the other side and pounced at his monarch weapons backward.

“It’s all done for!” Feng Wuji stomped his feet, he summoned the innate gods and shouted, “Leave, leave now! The Diming Clan cannot hold any longer!”

On the other end, the soldiers were marching in waves, drowning everything on its path. Zhong Yue sat still in the thousand-winged ancient ship with a pair of cold eyes filled, watching quietly as his armies pushed forward.

Even if Ming Wenzheng had listened to Feng Wuji, it was still impossible to stop Zhong Yue’s march. The only difference it would make was to bring more casualties to Heaven Breaching Fortress’s forces.

Speed was a crucial asset of war and Zhong Yue had demonstrated stupendously the art of speed. Mo Yin’s armies were not here yet and Heaven Court’s reinforcements were still on their way here, making now the best chance to take down the two monarch races.

The extermination of the Diming Clan and Wuming Clan would be a huge impact to the Heaven Court’s reputation and overall prowess.

The Heaven Breaching Fortress’s armies warred like hungry tigers, killing countless Diming Clan’s royal descendants, beheading many princes in the level of Imperial Emperors, Creators, Deity Emperors, and Deity Overlords!

Ming Wenzheng led the remnants and fled for the Diming Clan’s sacred ground. His armies were left behind, separated from each other into many parts by the enemies. Only 20 percent of them left with him.

From afar, the Diming Clan’s sacred ground was in the vicinity. Ming Wenzheng heaved a breath of relief and quickly ordered the sacred ground’s armies to open the array formation so that they could enter.

But right when the monarch array formation was opened, clamors of war could be heard from the back. The monarch weapons attacked the array formation placed down by Heavenly Monarch Di Ming and unleashed their powers, shattering the array formation into pieces while crumbling the many sacred mountains and breaking countless seals in the sacred ground!

Ming Wenzheng looked back and his eyes flared wide in hatred. Behind his armies, countless Creators and Imperial Emperors were leading the enemy forces in pursuit. His brothers and sisters, children and descendants were getting slaughtered by them!

“I regret not listening to Mister Wuji!”

Ming Wenzheng let out a cry, he flashed to the rear end of the army and shouted, “Little brothers and sisters, leave the sacred ground behind and head for the Heaven Court. I will stop the enemies!”

Some hundreds of princes rushed to his side, they all shouted together in anger, “Big brother, we will fight to death by your side!”

Ming Wenzheng pushed his hand out and sent them flying backward, he sighed, “As a commander, I didn’t make the right choice sacrificing the minority for the greater good just because of my own fear of getting killed by Queen Goddess. I considered only myself and neglected the overall situation. It is I who made the mistake, it is I who caused all this. Now, it is time I amend my mistake with my life. None of you are part of this mistake, Father and the queen will spare your lives. So, go, now——”

The Wuming Clan’s city defense was taken down and Zhong Yue’s armies swarmed into the city.

“The Heavenly Monarch’s high prince is mine!” Fu Li lunged forward in laughter, “Don’t any of you dare to fight with me for him!”

Ling Zheng cast out the Juling True Form and laughed, “I haven’t made a merit yet, General Fu Li, please let me have the honor of doing it instead!”

Yi Tianjun, Imperial Emperor Duo Yin, Jiang Yiqi, Imperial Emperor Fu Ya, and the rest swarmed in for Ming Wenzheng, they were shouting, “Heavenly Monarch’s high prince’s head is a great merit, whoever kills him will have his head!”

Ming Wenzheng fought with everything he had to stop the pursuers. But he was, after all, outnumbered, and he was soon killed by them. Yi Tianjun was faster and claimed Ming Wenzheng’s head first, he laughed happily and cheered, “The merit is mine!”

The rest of them were unsatisfied, they charged into the Diming Clan’s sacred ground and slaughtered the Diming experts in anger.

On the other hand, the other Imperial Emperor Diming princes were leading the remaining forces and escaped toward the Heaven Court. But the Heaven Breaching Fortress’s forces were chasing after their tails.

The eldest princess, Ming Qiufang, turned and waved at her little brothers and sisters with a smile, she said, “Leave first without me. Big brother is dead and I will follow his footsteps. When you see Father, tell him, we did not bring shame to his name.”

The princes and princesses cried in pain as they left while Ming Qiufang turned to stop the pursuers. Soon after, she was killed by the Heaven Breaching Fortress’s forces.

“Our Diming Clan have no cowards!” The second prince, Ming Wenque stopped and detached from the crowd, he turned and looked at the incoming pursuers, he shouted, “You’ll have to go through my corpse to annihilate my race!”

On the thousand-winged ancient ship, Zhong Yue lead the countless gods to the frontline. He saw Ming Wenque standing alone on their paths and his heart shook. He ordered his men, “The Diming Clan sure have many loyal warriors. Leave his corpse intact.”
