You get Lu Bu as your starting character.

Qingyun Sect.

Inside the sect's main hall.

Facing the two sages, the Supreme Elder and the Second Elder, the elders, led by the First Elder, all had extremely ugly expressions.

None of them expected that their Supreme Elder, a dignified saint and powerful being, would actually side with the Demon Clan.

What surprised them even more was that, in addition to the Supreme Elder and the Second Elder, many other elders had defected to the Demon Clan, and these high-ranking elders in the hall made up almost half of the total.

This is such a terrifying thing to think about.

Who would have thought that a top sect like their Qingyun Sect would be infiltrated and controlled by the demon race to this extent? It's absolutely terrifying.

"Supreme Elders, you have actually sided with the Demon Clan and even intend to cause chaos within the sect?"

"Even if the sect leader and the others aren't here, there are still patriarchs in the sect. Aren't you afraid that the patriarchs will destroy you?"

The Grand Elder looked at the Supreme Elders and those who had sided with the Demon Clan, and said in a cold voice.

Now that the sect leader is gone, and another elder has also left the sect with him, it does not mean that there are no strong individuals left in the sect.

Putting aside other resources, the ancestor alone could suppress all petty villains.

"You don't need to remind me of that."

"Our ancestors will also become servants of the Lord, just like us, and receive eternal life."

The Supreme Elder's domain of laws expanded, and a great battle erupted instantly.

In a short time, the elders who had not sided with the demons, led by the First Elder, were suppressed. They had no power to resist in front of the two saints, the Supreme Elder and the Second Elder.

……

Big week.

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

Zhou Chen sat upright on the dragon throne, looking at the news in his hand, his brows furrowed.

More than ten days have passed, and the situation on the front lines is not optimistic. Han Xin and his men have retreated again and again, having been defeated and forced to retreat from Daqian to Dayan.

Meanwhile, the imperial army advanced with unstoppable momentum, defeating Han Xin and his forces more than ten times in just over ten days, and had already reached the gates of the Great Yan Dynasty.

The Great Yan Dynasty succeeded the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Once the imperial army defeats Han Xin and his forces again and crosses the Great Yan, the imperial army will be able to directly threaten the Great Zhou and attack its borders.

At that time, the battlefield will shift to the Great Zhou, and the entire Great Zhou will be plunged into turmoil…

Zhou Chen put down the message in his hand, stood up, and paced back and forth with a furrowed brow.

Originally, Zhou Chen thought that Han Xin and his men could hold off the imperial army for some time until he signed in again.

If we can hold out until he signs in again, and if we can find a talented general through that sign-in, we can support the front lines and hold off the imperial army.

However, unexpectedly, the imperial army advanced too quickly and attacked too fiercely. In just over ten days, they defeated Han Xin and his men more than ten times and had already reached the city walls of the Great Yan Dynasty.

This speed exceeded Zhou Chen's expectations and disrupted his plans.

"It seems it's time for Guan Yu to make his move."

Zhou Chen stopped pacing back and forth in front of the dragon table and murmured something.

Previously, Zhou Chen hadn't let Guan Yu take action to guard against the two major sects, Ziyang Sect and Qingyun Sect. However, the current situation on the front lines no longer allows Zhou Chen to plan according to his previous schemes.

If Guan Yu is not allowed to take action, and Han Xin and his forces are defeated, the imperial army will be able to march straight into the Zhou Dynasty and reach its borders.

Zhou Chen did not want to place the battlefield in Great Zhou, allowing the war to rage on Great Zhou's land and affect Great Zhou.

at this time.

A powerful pressure descended, enveloping the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the entire imperial palace, and even the entire Great Zhou Dynasty.

"presumptuous."

Zhou Chen's expression changed, and his figure instantly disappeared from the main hall.

Meanwhile, the nation's destiny unfolds, and the dragon's roar resounds in all directions.

In the blink of an eye, Zhou Chen's figure appeared in the void.

Four figures stood in the void, exuding a powerful aura that suppressed the entire Great Zhou Dynasty without any restraint.

"saint?"

Upon seeing these four figures, Zhou Chen's pupils contracted slightly.

Judging from the aura emanating from these four people, Zhou Chen knew that they were all powerful saints.

The two men standing in front, in particular, exuded the most terrifying aura, almost comparable to Guan Yu.

"Unexpectedly, the Emperor of Great Zhou is a genius. He broke through to the Half-Saint realm at such a young age. It's quite surprising!"

Looking at Zhou Chen, the sect leader of Qingyun Sect showed a hint of surprise in his eyes and spoke.

Indeed, these four people were none other than the two sect leaders of Qingyun Sect and Ziyang Sect, as well as another Supreme Elder of Qingyun Sect and Ziyang Sect.

Originally, the two sect leaders of Qingyun Sect and Ziyang Sect had been secretly following the imperial army, wanting to see what kind of foundation the Great Zhou had.

However, unexpectedly, more than ten days have passed, and the imperial army is advancing unstoppably, while apart from a few half-saints, no saint from the Great Zhou has made a move, nor has it revealed any of its strength.

Faced with this situation, the sect leaders of Qingyun Sect and Ziyang Sect knew they could not wait any longer.

If we wait any longer, the imperial army will reach the Great Zhou.

By then, it will be too late for them to make a move, and they will lose face. It's unacceptable that the top three powers of the Eastern Region would have to join forces to deal with a mere dynasty.

To preserve the prestige and authority of the two sects, the Great Zhou Dynasty must personally destroy them. Only then can the people of the entire Eastern Region understand what price they will have to pay for daring to challenge and disregard the authority of the Qingyun and Ziyang sects.

Therefore, the sect leaders of Qingyun Sect and Ziyang Sect did not wait any longer, but instead brought their Supreme Elders directly to Great Zhou.
However, what the Qingyun Sect Master did not expect was that Zhou Chen, the emperor of the Great Zhou, had already reached the level of a half-saint at such a young age. This was something that even the top geniuses of their sect could not compare to. It was probably only in the Central Region that there would be such a genius.

Zhou Chen's Emperor's Conferring God Technique has reached the seventh level of perfection, and he is only one step away from the eighth level.

In all calculations, Zhou Chen's strength has indeed reached the level of a half-saint.

However, the Emperor's Conferring of Gods Technique is no ordinary cultivation method; its power far surpasses that of ordinary techniques, especially within the Great Zhou territory.

As Zhou Chen's figure appeared in the void, another figure immediately followed behind him.

This figure was none other than Guan Yu, the Second Master of the Guan Family.

As the only sage and great power in the Great Zhou Dynasty, Guan Yu's reaction speed was no less than that of Emperor Zhou Chen, who had cultivated the Emperor's Conferment of Gods Technique. They rushed into the void almost simultaneously.
