Douluo: Did you move Danta here?

Chapter 446 Unstoppable
Hearing this, Ning Bei breathed a slight sigh of relief. Whether she could keep it or not was another matter. At least the Great Mother Dragon was willing to make a promise, wasn't she?
Both Lingmao City and the Kingdom of Kerviel were making intensive preparations, appearing poised to swallow up the entire territory of the Kingdom of Nili. This made the Nili royal family feel terrified. Surely the simultaneous actions of Lingmao City and the Kingdom of Kerviel were not to support them. If so, why didn't they warn them in advance that swallowing Kerviel's forces would lead to an attack on the Kingdom of Nili?

After much deliberation, Nili immediately dispatched an envoy to Xingluo City to request support from Meng Shenji. Meng Shenji, under the orders of Qian Renxue, had been temporarily handling the relevant affairs of the former Xingluo Empire for several years and had done a good job in the process. His current official position was Governor of Xingluo City.

However, the Kingdom of Nili is quite a distance from Xingluo City, and this round trip will definitely take a lot of time. Moreover, it is uncertain whether their envoy will be able to reach Xingluo City smoothly.

Half a month passed quietly, and the Nili royal family was as anxious as ants on a hot pan, because they had received news that Dai Mubai's army of thousands of soul masters in the west had swallowed up three border cities, while the army of the Zhu family of the Netherworld Palace in the east had also annexed border cities in the same manner, making them feel that they could not take care of both ends.

"Has there been no news from the messengers we sent out? It's unrealistic for them to come all the way from Xingluo City, but they should at least attack the rear of Lingmao City to force the enemy in the east to retreat."

Seeing the king's blustering but cowardly demeanor, the ministers and generals below all lowered their heads, not daring to look him in the eye. They knew that the messengers they had sent had likely been intercepted by the Xingluo Zhu family, but there was no point in saying anything now. They could only take it one step at a time. If all else failed, they would persuade the king to surrender to Dai Mubai, since the Nili Kingdom had originally been a vassal kingdom of the Xingluo Dai family.

"Your Majesty, the most important thing right now is to send more troops to the border. Only by stabilizing the situation can we have a chance to negotiate and wait for rescue."

"That's right, we need to reinforce the border immediately. We can't let them reach the capital, or we won't even have any bargaining chips left."

"Yes."

After receiving their orders, the generals hurried to the barracks, while King Nili, with a worried expression, could only wait for further military updates.

The generals, who had just left the kingdom, had no time to discuss anything else and headed straight for the military camp, unaware of the figures emerging from the shadows.

"Do it."

"it is good."

One of the dark figures flicked his right hand, and a crossbow-shaped device appeared in his hand—the Zhuge Divine Crossbow, the signature hidden weapon of the Tang Clan.

"Let me test whether the sect leader's hidden weapon is as effective as it seems."

Without hesitation, he aimed at several generals and pulled the trigger. "Swish," "swish," "swish," several arrows flew rapidly towards the men in front of him with the sound of wind breaking.

Who's there?

One of the generals felt a chill run down his spine and quickly released his martial spirit to look back. But before he could finish speaking, a crossbow bolt fired by the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow pierced his throat and chest. Blood splattered, and he clutched his throat, collapsed to the ground, convulsed for a moment, and then died.

"who?"

Seeing their comrade being ambushed, the other generals also released their martial spirits and looked around to be on guard.

"Hehehe, the hidden weapons given by the sect leader are indeed useful."

"Stop playing around, hurry up and take care of them, we still need to assassinate that king."

"Okay, okay, let's fire the arrows together then."

Another series of whooshing sounds rang out, and the remaining generals looked at the dense barrage of arrows falling from above with fear in their eyes.

The Zhuge Repeating Crossbow could penetrate the defenses of Soul Masters at the Soul Sect level. Although the leading general was a Soul King level expert, he could not stop such a dense barrage of crossbows. Soon, several screams were drowned out by the dense rain of swords, and all the generals died tragically in the Northwest.

After confirming that all the generals were dead, dozens of dark figures turned and rushed towards the palace.

If Dai Mubai were to achieve some success and then negotiate with the Nili royal family, they would most likely surrender.

But Dai and Tang intended to develop the three southwestern provinces into their own solid rear base. How could they allow the old royal family to exist in such an important territory? Moonlight shone into the palace of the Kingdom of Nili. The palace, which used to be bustling with servants and attendants, was now eerily quiet. Even the moon overhead seemed to exude a bloody aura.

"Hehe, the Nili royal family is much richer than the Kerviel royal family, that's more like it."

Several dark figures emerged from the moonlight; they were the Tang Clan disciples who had ambushed the generals in the woods. Each of them wore a smile, clearly indicating that besides completing their mission, they had also reaped considerable benefits during their trip to the palace.

Tang San knew and tacitly approved of all of this. Of course, even Dai Mubai was aware of this, and he also tacitly approved of Tang San taking a portion of the money to develop the Tang Sect.

"Let's go back and report. Take all the corpses of those Soul Masters with you."

"it is good."

Compared to money, these people value other benefits more; the deceased soul masters can also provide them with nourishment for growth.

Without the command of the royal family and generals, the entire Kingdom of Nili collapsed and was occupied by Dai Mubai and the Zhu family within three days. The two forces also successfully joined forces in the capital.

When Zhu Xianye arrived in the capital, Dai Mubai was already sitting on the throne, waiting for his arrival.

"Uncle, it's been a long time since we last saw each other."

Looking at the face on the throne that had lost its childishness, Zhu Xianye seemed a little dazed for a moment, but he quickly composed himself and gave Dai Mubai a smile.

"Yes, it's been a long time. I never expected that you would be the most successful among the many descendants of the Dai family. Sister, you have given birth to a fine son."

"Haha, it's just that times make heroes. I don't deserve your praise, Uncle. The war here is over, and I've already ordered a victory banquet to be prepared. I'll have a good drink with you then."

Both men harbored their own thoughts. In Dai Mubai's view, the next step after winning the war would be the distribution of spoils, while in Zhu Xianye's view, the more triumphant Dai Mubai was now, the more miserable he would be in the future.

"Alright, see you at the banquet then. I'll make some arrangements for the troops first."

"it is good."

After Zhu Xianye left, Tang San stepped out from the shadows.

"So, mistress, can you figure anything out?"

Tang San shook his head. How could a quick glance tell whether the other party was truly willing to cooperate with them?

"We'll have to see if they make unreasonable demands at the banquet. If they ask for a lot, that's normal. But if they don't ask for anything at all, then we need to be careful."

Dai Mubai nodded. He knew very well that there was no such thing as a free lunch, and he didn't believe that Zhu Xianye would support his uprising without any demands just because of so-called blood ties.

Several hours later, in a side hall of the palace, a lavish banquet had been set up, and Dai Mubai and Tang San were seated at the head of the table.

After settling the troops, Zhu Xianye led several elders into the side hall.

"Uncle, there are also some elders here. Please take a seat."
