Chapter 1981 - 1985: Qin Tian Rebels!
When Qin Tian took advantage of the thirty thousand-strong army to advance eastward from West State and captured Tiger City, the news reached the Imperial City, and the Ice Emperor was furious.
The Fourth Prince was also extremely angry.
At this moment, they shed their disguises and prepared to act directly.
Without any pretext, the Ice Emperor issued another Imperial Decree to announce to the world—
Qin Tian, within ten days, must go alone to the Imperial Palace to meet the Ice Emperor, or it’s a sign of rebellion!
Originally, the Ice Emperor wanted to make things difficult for Qin Tian and then force him to rebel, seizing the opportunity to send troops.
But unexpectedly, Qin Tian did not take the bait, instead countering them, leaving the Ice Emperor and the Fourth Prince enraged.
The intent of the Ice Emperor, with the decree announcing to the world, was already very clear.
As the decree was issued, the Ice Emperor was already mobilizing troops together with the Fourth Prince, forming an alliance with the Demon Clan, Barbarian Clan, and Dragon Clan, preparing to besiege Qin Tian with four major forces.
And here, in Tiger City, upon receiving the Ice Emperor’s decree, Qin Tian laughed directly.
"The fangs finally show themselves? Not planning to play anymore? I was ready to keep playing with you!"
Qin Tian touched the tip of his nose, took a deep breath; what’s destined to come will eventually come, and it’s finally here!
Actually, this time eastward, Qin Tian did not plan to seize many cities because, moving east from West State, Tiger City was a critical point not far from West State, easy to defend and difficult to attack, able to respond to Yueya City; Qin Tian had long wanted to capture it.
Now, having achieved his wish, Qin Tian did not intend to take the opportunity to expand eastward, although residents of dozens of cities in the east panicked and fled at the news of Qin Tian’s army approaching.
He’s well aware that beyond Tiger City to the east is a wide open plain, and even if captured, with the Imperial City’s army arriving, it would be impossible to defend.
And this Tiger City can now serve as Qin Tian’s first line of defense.
Qin Tian immediately ordered Che Aijun to fortify the defenses of Tiger City and be vigilant against any attacks from the Imperial City.
Meanwhile, Qin Tian led twenty thousand men back to West Capital City; Che Aijun guarded Tiger City with ten thousand men, and Qin Tian took Huang Lianhai to the West Capital, while Che Aijun could recruit the original five thousand men of Tiger City to join his forces.
The ten-day deadline set by the Ice Emperor hadn’t passed, but the army had already started moving towards West State.
This time, the Ice Emperor dispatched Xie Feihong, the top of the Tianyuan Dynasty’s four Generals, to lead fifty thousand troops directly to West State.
North State and South State each sent ten thousand to assist Xie Feihong.
Just within the Tianyuan Dynasty, seventy thousand troops had been dispatched!
"Boss, there’s movement from the Demon Clan; a large force plans to cross the Demon God River into West State. We don’t have precise numbers yet, but we estimate at least fifty thousand!"
"Boss, the southern Barbarian Clan has also initiated troop movements. The Southern Barbarian King leads ten thousand men, eager to test our Eastern Border of West State."
"Most importantly, the Dragon Clan has also dispatched troops. Long Tianwu sent one of her trusted generals, Long Xuanji, with twenty thousand dragon warriors heading west."
In one day, Xiaozhuang continuously delivered this bad news to Qin Tian.
Although Qin Tian had anticipated this, upon hearing the news, he felt somewhat anxious.
So it seems the Tianyuan Dynasty, allied with the Demon Clan, Barbarian Clan, and Dragon Clan, is deploying over a million troops to annihilate Qin Tian!
Such a massive assault hasn’t occurred on the Spiritual Domain Continent in decades!
The key is Qin Tian is just a noble of the Tianyuan Dynasty!
"Long Xuanji... Wasn’t she the defeated general under me in East State? Now, Long Tianwu still trusts her? But I must admit, her strength truly isn’t weak..."
Qin Tian sat in his seat, speaking while slightly closing his eyes.
How to respond to the four armies encircling him?
The previous diplomatic policies no longer work; is the only option now to clash head-on?
Going head-on against various armies and experts, Qin Tian clearly wouldn’t have the capacity, almost impossible to win.
Qin Tian summoned all his core generals for a meeting.
After a day of intense discussion, with only three days left until the Ice Emperor’s decree demanded Qin Tian to arrive at the Imperial City, everyone unanimously decided for Qin Tian to preemptively strike against the Ice Emperor, providing the reason—
The sovereign forces the subject to rebel!
The actions of the Ice Emperor indeed force the subject to rebel!
Qin Tian hesitated for a few minutes, then agreed to their proposal.
The next day, Qin Tian gathered his armies at West Capital for a solemn assembly.
"The Ice Emperor has targeted West Capital and me, Qin Tian, multiple times; I’ve been patient everywhere, but now, he even demands I go alone to the Imperial City intending to kill me! Brothers, what do you say we do!?"
Standing on the highest platform, Qin Tian’s voice carried by True Qi, echoed in the sky!
"Rebel!"
"Rebel!"
"Rebel!"
The hundred thousand troops below the platform were all Qin Tian’s direct lineage; they were brothers who’ve fought alongside him for years. Hearing the Ice Emperor’s pressure on Qin Tian, they shouted in unison, demanding rebellion.
Rebel, damn it!
"Are princes born into nobility?"
Qin Tian proclaimed loudly, "I, Qin Tian, have fought from being a commoner in East State, achieving great battle honors step by step, reached the position of Qin Noble, yet the Ice Emperor decides to kill me on a whim!"
"This country of the Tianyuan Dynasty isn’t the Ice Emperor’s alone! It’s for all of us!"
"I, Qin Tian, now formally announce, abandoning the Qin Noble title, establishing myself in West State, self-declaration as King Qin! I will reclaim my kingdom from the Ice Emperor!"
At this moment, as Qin Tian spoke, dragon energy danced around his body, and the sky changed color!
Simultaneously, six True Qi giant dragons soared into the sky with majestic grace, leaving the officers and soldiers stunned!
"I can now tell my brothers that the country of the Tianyuan Dynasty was not the Ice Emperor’s! But taken from my father!"
Qin Tian’s roar left the ten thousand soldiers on-site dumbfounded!
Even Zhou Yang and Xiaozhuang were baffled, looking at each other with confusion below the platform.
"Second brother, what is going on, what did the boss mean, wasn’t he an orphan? Didn’t Master pick him up? Does he have relatives in the Spiritual Domain?"
Duan Xiaodao was petrified.
Lin Yu spread his hands, dazed: "Whoa, I don’t know either, don’t look at me, maybe... maybe the boss is boosting morale with tall tales... Tsk tsk, the Ice Emperor stole his father’s kingdom, joking, how could it be..."
Beside Lin Yu, Zhou Yang was momentarily stunned, saying seriously: "If what the boss said is true, that the Ice Emperor stole his father’s kingdom, then... the boss’s father, isn’t he... Long Jun!?"
