There was absolutely no chance of survival; the thought of it was chilling.

Seeing Sophie's hesitation, the envoy from the Red Cake Kingdom had a sudden inspiration and sincerely said to Sophie:

"Lady Sophie... as long as you are willing to cooperate with the Red Cake Kingdom to jointly attack the Yan Kingdom, I hereby assure you that after this battle..."

"The Red Cake Kingdom will not take a single penny of resources; its only wish is to destroy Yang Xia's Yan Kingdom. We hope you will consider this carefully, as it is a golden opportunity for both of us and we must not miss it."

The Red Cake Kingdom offered these conditions in order to use the Nebula Kingdom as a backer and take this opportunity to eliminate Yang Xia's Yan Kingdom.

It would be good to avenge their previous humiliation. Recalling Yang Xia's arrogant attitude towards them, Liu Zhixiu, the leader of the Red Cake Kingdom, was filled with resentment.

He had always harbored deep hatred for Yang Xia and had been searching for an opportunity to take revenge. Now that the Xingyun Kingdom had finally appeared, he was already impatient to do so.

He only hoped to witness the destruction of the Yan Kingdom with his own eyes to relieve the hatred in his heart.

Sophie was indeed quite tempted by the conditions offered by the Red Cake Kingdom.

After careful consideration, he clearly stated in front of the Red Cake Kingdom and the Atlantean Empire:
"Alright... I grant your request. After the Yan Kingdom is destroyed, its territory and all its resources must belong entirely to the Xingyun Kingdom."

Sophie's words immediately aroused strong dissatisfaction from Cassil, the leader of the Atlan Empire, making him extremely unhappy.

He could not accept the Nebula Kingdom monopolizing all resources, and his cooperation with the Nebula Kingdom was based on his own considerations.

He naturally refused to hand over the resources so easily.

Cassir stood up abruptly and said to Sophie solemnly, "Lady Sophie... if the Yan Kingdom is destroyed, our Atlan Empire needs the territory of the Yan Kingdom."

"Please grant us this condition: all other resources will belong to the Nebula Kingdom without any objection."

This matter caused a serious disagreement between Cassirer and Sophie, and the two immediately began arguing.

Sophie refused to budge, while Cassirer argued forcefully, both sides taking a very tough stance and wanting to secure the best possible interests for their respective countries.

Sophie and Cassil's argument escalated, with neither willing to back down, and the atmosphere quickly became tense...

When Tianye, the envoy from the Red Cake Kingdom, witnessed Cassirer and Sophie arguing, a smug smile appeared on his face.

“Great… As long as you two keep arguing, my plan will succeed.”

The envoy from the Red Cake Kingdom sneered inwardly, enjoying the spectacle unfolding before him with great interest.

His attempts to sow discord have been effective; this time, he is determined to complete the task assigned by the king.

On the surface, however, Tianye did not let Sophie and Cassil notice anything unusual.

He wanted to take advantage of the situation so that the Red Cake Kingdom could reap the benefits, which infuriated Cassirer.

Things took a completely unexpected turn. Despite the prior agreement, Sophie turned out to be incredibly greedy.

Cassir angrily questioned Sophie: "Why...why are you so aggressive? Our Atlantean Empire has already made concessions."

"Right now, we only want the territory of Yan Kingdom, and nothing else. If even this condition cannot be agreed to, our cooperation will probably be difficult to continue."

"Hahaha……"

Upon hearing Cassir's words, Sophie burst into laughter and said, "Casir... I'm warning you, if you dare to compete with the Nebula Kingdom again, don't blame me for being impolite."

"Don't forget that you need my help. If you want the higher-ups in Nebula Kingdom to know that you support our country, I advise you to give up that idea as soon as possible."

"you……"

Cassirer was furious, but he was utterly helpless in the face of Sophie's domineering attitude.

Not knowing how to continue the argument, Sophie's attitude was firm, while he had his concerns, leaving Cassirer feeling conflicted.

At this critical juncture, Tian Ye, the envoy from the Red Cake Kingdom, suddenly came up with a plan.

"Humph……"

He sneered inwardly, thinking to himself, "The time has come... Since they're arguing so fiercely, I can make good use of it."

"At that time, I can use the names of Sophie and Cassirer respectively to try to cooperate with them, take advantage of their mentality of fighting to the death, and launch separate attacks."

"I'm so clever! Such a perfect plan must not be missed."

A sly smile flashed across Tian Ye's face as he began to plan the overall situation in his mind.

At this time, Cassirer and Sophie were completely unaware of Tianye's trick.

Unaware that they had fallen into a trap, they continued arguing endlessly, neither willing to give in.

This inadvertently gave Tianye an opportunity, and the cunning Tianye quickly put it into action.

He approached Sophie and Cassirer separately to discuss cooperation, as planned.

Once Sophie and Cassirer's fleet is defeated by Yang Xia, he can seize the opportunity to strike at their vital points.

After making a plan, Tianye earnestly tried to persuade Sophie and Cassirer.

"Enough... There's no point in you arguing here."

"We are now allies, and our common enemy is the Yan Kingdom. If you start fighting amongst yourselves, wouldn't you be throwing yourselves into disarray and giving the Yan Kingdom an opportunity to take advantage of you?"

"Instead of thinking about this, we should consider how to cooperate and defeat Yan Kingdom as soon as possible. That is the most urgent task."

Sophie and Cassirer realized that Tianye's words made sense, and they gradually calmed down.

However, because of this incident, both sides harbored resentment and felt that they could not fully trust each other.

Seeing that they had finally calmed down, Tianye breathed a sigh of relief and then they split up to carry out their tasks.

When Tianye appeared in front of Sophie, Sophie asked in an annoyed tone:

"What are you doing here? Speak quickly if you have something to say."

Tianye was very unhappy with Sophie's arrogant attitude, but he had no choice but to endure it in order to achieve his goal.

He then explained his thoughts to Sophie, who fell silent, carefully weighing the pros and cons.

Tianye looked at Sophie with expectant eyes, wondering if he would agree to her suggestion.

After a moment, Sophie finally agreed to cooperate.

Then, the cunning Field used the same tactic to approach Cassirer and state his position and attitude.

Cassir was deeply moved and looked up at the field, saying:
"Okay... I agree to our cooperation. I really want to thank you this time."

The foolish Cassiel was completely oblivious to the field's plot.

Even Sophie from Nebula Kingdom was manipulated by Tianye this time, completely unaware of the trickery involved, and instead felt smug.

On the other side, Yang Xia was also fully prepared, facing the enemy's menacing posture.

Even the Atlantean Empire and the Red Cake Kingdom defected again, joining the Nebula Kingdom's camp.

The situation is indeed quite critical, and a major battle is on the verge of breaking out.

Yang Xia summoned Meng Yin, believing that they should have a serious discussion. If war were to break out, Yang Xia needed to make thorough preparations.

Seeing Yang Xia's solemn expression, Meng Yin couldn't help but ask curiously:
"Your Majesty...what are your instructions?"

Upon hearing Meng Yin's question, Yang Xia sighed helplessly and slowly walked up to Meng Yin.

"I summoned you here to give you instructions. If war breaks out, you must hold the control room of the tower defense cannon and there must be no mistakes."

"This matter is of great importance. You must fulfill my instructions. Do you understand?"

Mengyin was quite reluctant when he heard about the task assigned by Yang Xia.

He paused slightly, then respectfully said to Yang Xia:
"Your Majesty... let me go to the battlefield. Swords and spears have no eyes on the battlefield. I yearn to charge into battle, not to stay behind."

"It would be more appropriate for you to personally oversee the control room of the tower defense cannon; that way, everyone can feel at ease. The battlefield situation is chaotic, and we are truly worried." Yang Xia had long anticipated that Meng Yin would volunteer for the battle and was mentally prepared for it.

Therefore, when Mengyin made the request, Yang Xia appeared very calm, even with a smile on his face.

“I’m telling you, Mengyin… don’t be so impulsive. The control room can also become a battlefield, and this mission is of utmost importance. I can only feel at ease if it’s entrusted to you.”

"What do you mean by hiding in the rear? This is no easy task. You bear equally heavy responsibilities and must not let your guard down."

"I will handle matters on the battlefield personally and will not allow them to gain any advantage. You only need to guard the control room of the tower defense cannon."

Meng Yin wanted to try again, as he was eager to go to the battlefield, but Yang Xia's attitude was very firm.

No matter how Mengyin tried to persuade him, he wouldn't agree. It was at this crucial moment...

Meng Yu rushed in, holding a secret letter in his hand.

"Your Majesty... we have just received a secret letter from the Yan Kingdom. Please take a look."

Meng Yu then presented the secret letter to Yang Xia. Yang Xia took the letter and began to read it carefully.

Meng Yin and Meng Yu stood to one side, their expressions serious, their eyes fixed on Yang Xia.

They observed his every move. This continued until Yang Xia finished reading the secret letter.

He said calmly, "It's Sun Zhengming from Yan Kingdom. He's asking us if we need any help. He's really going to great lengths."

"As things stand, there's no need for Yan to do anything for the time being. We can handle it ourselves, and there's no need to involve them."

"Meng Yu...you should reply to Lord Sun as I have instructed, making sure your words are sincere and also expressing your gratitude to the Yan Kingdom."

Meng Yu listened carefully and understood what he should do next.

"Yes, Your Majesty... I will convey your message immediately."

Yang Xia nodded in satisfaction. Meng Yu looked at Yang Xia and Meng Yin, his heart filled with doubt.

Because when he first came in, he sensed that the atmosphere was a bit unusual.

But he didn't dare ask any more questions and could only turn around and leave in a hurry.

Meanwhile, in Yan, Sun Zhengming was also waiting anxiously. He knew that Yan was facing difficulties.

Sun Zhengming waited anxiously, finally receiving Yang Xia's reply.

When Sun Zhengming saw Yang Xia politely decline, he couldn't help but feel worried.

After all, the Nebula Kingdom is quite powerful, and now it has colluded with the Atlan Empire and the Red Cake Kingdom, which may put enormous pressure on the Yan Kingdom.

After careful consideration, Sun Zhengming couldn't wait to report the matter to Song Jitian, the lord of Yan Kingdom.

After learning about this, Song Jitian carefully weighed the pros and cons.

"Lord Sun... just in case, I think Yan should still send troops to reinforce Yan."

"Their situation is indeed difficult. Although Yang Xia is highly capable, it is by no means easy for him to cope with pressure from multiple sides."

Sun Zhengming listened to Song Jitian's analysis and also felt that it made sense.

He was constantly worried about the safety of Yang Xia and the Yan Kingdom. Since Song Jitian had agreed, Sun Zhengming had no choice but to accept the order.

"Yes... Your Majesty, I will make the arrangements immediately. Yan Kingdom will provide reinforcements to Yan Kingdom as quickly as possible to help it overcome this crisis."

Seeing the urgency of the situation, Yu Meiren was truly worried about the safety of Yan Kingdom and Yang Xia.

This kept her tossing and turning, her mind in turmoil, so Yu Meiren had no choice but to get up alone.

She quietly went to the seaside and felt the slight comfort brought by the sea breeze.

Yang Xia caught a glimpse of Yu Meiren and was surprised.

He quickly caught up and asked with concern, "What are you doing... It's so late, why aren't you resting?"

"And do you know how dangerous it is to come here alone? Go back quickly."

Yang Xia's sudden appearance did indeed surprise Yu Meiren.

She looked at Yang Xia in surprise, a worried expression on her face.

"I can't sleep, I'm really worried. I'm afraid something might happen to you and Yan Guo, and I'm very anxious."

Yang Xia listened to Yu Meiren's words and looked at her with a smile.

"Stop overthinking. Don't you trust my abilities? I can definitely handle this."

"Besides, we now have tower defense cannons, and you've seen their power, so there's absolutely nothing to worry about."

"Go to sleep peacefully. No matter what happens, as long as I'm here, Yan Kingdom will be safe."

Yang Xia patiently comforted Yu Meiren, trying his best to soothe her and hoping she would stop worrying about the matter.

He repeatedly emphasized that he was fully capable of handling all of this.

Yu Meiren also seemed somewhat helpless, but she believed in Yang Xia's abilities. If he couldn't handle it, he probably would have already sought another method.

Hearing Yang Xia mention the tower defense cannon, Yu Meiren, having already witnessed its power, finally felt somewhat relieved.

Yang Xia was still awake late into the night.

"Ding dong..."

Suddenly, Yang Xia received a system notification.

[Congratulations, host! Once you reach 5,000 points, the weather controller can be upgraded.]

[You will gain a new skill: the ability to summon incredibly powerful lightning.]

After checking the system notification, Yang Xia was overjoyed.

He immediately checked his points, only to find that he was still far from enough, which made him somewhat disappointed.

But Yang Xia quickly realized what was going on and said happily, "Live streaming... I can start the live stream right away. I believe I can break through the five thousand points very soon."

Yang Xia couldn't wait to start the live stream.

When the fans saw Yang Xia appear, they were all very excited, and the atmosphere in the live broadcast room instantly became lively.

"Your Majesty...you've finally arrived! Quickly tell us how the Yan Kingdom is doing!"

We've heard that the Nebula Kingdom has allied with the Atlantean Empire and the Red Cake Kingdom, and they're all eyeing the Yan Kingdom covetously. We're all very worried.

However, we still believe in Your Majesty; with your abilities, you are absolutely capable of handling them.

Yang Xia was very pleased to see that his fans cared about the current situation in Yan Kingdom.

He immediately responded in the live broadcast room: "Everyone, please rest assured, everything is fine in Yan Country, and I will never let anything happen to Yan Country."

"Even if those countries join forces, I will not be afraid. Thank you all for your hard work, and I would like to express my gratitude to all my family members."

"Your Majesty... are there any titles still available for sale? We have been waiting for a long time."

Yes... if any titles become available, we'll place an order immediately.

Yang Xia saw that the popularity of the live broadcast room continued to rise, and many wealthy businessmen began to inquire about the title.

He took this opportunity to have a lively conversation with them, both enlivening the atmosphere of the live stream and completing the transaction.

But Yang Xia discovered that most of the donations were made voluntarily, in the hope that Yan Kingdom would win this war.

Seeing the fans' enthusiastic reaction, Yang Xia sincerely thanked them in the live stream. (End of Chapter)
