Lu Fan's brow furrowed, a hint of suspicion in his eyes. According to normal circumstances, things shouldn't be like this.
However, many soldiers had already entered the royal city, and everything seemed to be proceeding smoothly.
Prince Hei Yan's face was grim. Surrounded by numerous experts, he appeared even more disheveled.
"Your Highness, we must leave the Jin An Royal Residence as soon as possible!"
A guard spoke, but before he could react, he was cut down by a barrage of swords.
Witnessing this scene, Prince Hei Yan's face turned ashen. He had never imagined that things would turn out this way.
"So it's a prince of the Hell Dynasty. I was wondering who it was!"
Lu Fan's lips curved slightly as he stepped in front of Hei Yan, his expression chilling.
"It's you!"
Hei Yan's expression shifted. He had never expected to be targeted by Lu Fan, and this was certainly not good news for him.
"You are correct, it is I!"
Lu Fan nodded and said, "I'd like to see how you manage to leave alive today!"
"You dare!"
Hei Yan threatened, "If I am captured, my father will not let you go!"
"You dare to cause trouble here and still shout so arrogantly?"
Lu Fan's expression was indifferent. "Do you really think I wouldn't dare to touch you?"
With these words, Hei Yan's face turned ashen. Now that he was in the Heavenly Court Dynasty, Lu Fan would hardly care.
Thinking of this, Hei Yan's face grew somewhat somber. He then said in succession, "Since that's the case, I'll tell you the truth! Bei Cheng is leading the people of the Hell Dynasty to attack the Heavenly Court's imperial capital. It's likely that the capital will fall before long! I am not that important to you; you must understand that!"
"Attacking the capital?"
Lu Fan's expression changed. He had always been curious why the Hell Dynasty's main army had not appeared. Now, it seemed to be explained.
Seeing Lu Fan's expression change, Hei Yan did not hesitate and quickly fled forward, not daring to delay. Su Dan Novel Network.
Witnessing this scene, Lu Fan waved his hand, instantly immobilizing Hei Yan, and sneered, "Do you think I'll let you go just because you told me this?"
"The capital is in crisis, and you still have the leisure to bother with me?"
Hei Yan chuckled. "If you don't go to support them soon, the entire Heavenly Court Dynasty might be destroyed!"
"Don't worry, the capital is not that fragile!"
Lu Fan smiled faintly, his eyes flashing with coldness. "Besides, what you say may not be true. Why should I believe you?"
"You..."
Hei Yan's face changed. He had not expected Lu Fan to speak like this, catching him off guard.
After being captured, Hei Yan felt extremely helpless, but with things having reached this point, he had nothing more to say.
At the same time, in the sky not far away, the sounds of battle filled the air. Grand Tutor Wen and Prince Jin An unleashed their most powerful abilities in their attempt to escape.
However, in the face of a million-strong army, it was utterly insignificant. Grand Tutor Wen and the others were all captured.
"Commander, everyone has been captured, only General Chen is still at large!"
The leader of the Dragon Court cupped his fists, looking at Lu Fan with a fawning gaze.
"The capital might be in trouble!"
Lu Fan shook his head and said, "As for General Chen, leave him to the Dragon Court. I need to lead my troops back to reinforce the capital!"
"The capital is in trouble?"
The leader of the Dragon Court looked surprised, especially at Lu Fan's expression, which didn't seem like a lie.
"The Hell Dynasty's main forces have already arrived at the capital!"
Lu Fan stated directly. "Therefore, I must depart immediately. If the capital is in trouble, the entire Heavenly Court Dynasty will likely face immense difficulties!"
"In that case, I will accompany the commander!"
The leader of the Dragon Court nodded, his expression grave. He understood very well what this meant; any slight misstep could lead to endless turmoil.
Thinking of this, their faces gradually turned somber, and they understood what these matters entailed.
At the same time, Lu Fan, leading a group of experts, rushed towards the capital.
Within the capital, the barrier had already been activated. The Heavenly Emperor stood on the city walls, his expression cold as he gazed at the scene before him, his eyes sharp.
"With the Hell Dynasty's million-strong army here, the capital will surely fall today!"
Bei Cheng sneered. "You probably didn't expect that the people of the Hell Dynasty could reach the heartland of the Heavenly Court so quickly. This is all thanks to Prince Jin An!"
"Bei Cheng, you are a prince of the Heavenly Court, why are you aiding the enemy!"
His expression filled with coldness, the Heavenly Emperor looked at Bei Cheng, his anger immense.
"Hmph, I am no longer a prince of the Heavenly Court, nor do I have a father like you!"
Bei Cheng said coldly, "The blood flowing through me is my mother's blood, and that is also the bloodline of the Hell Dynasty!"
"I know you hate me for not treating your mother well back then, but why have you let yourself fall so low!"
The Heavenly Emperor said angrily, "Am I truly so unbearable that you would hate evil and love justice!"
"When you executed my mother, you were not worthy of saying such words!"
Bei Cheng glared directly at the Heavenly Emperor, his anger evident, showing no sign of evasion.
"What I did back then was all for the stability of the Heavenly Court. If not, how could it have been like this!" the Heavenly Emperor said, his eyes filled with gravity.
"For the stability of the Heavenly Court?"
Bei Cheng immediately sneered, a surge of anger in his voice. "For the Heavenly Court, you could kill my mother?"
"It was a helpless measure; why must you dwell on it!" the Heavenly Emperor said with a hint of helplessness, his expression earnest.
"Because of your helplessness, my mother had to be buried with you?" Bei Cheng burst into laughter. "Do you think this is acceptable?"
"I know I owe you too much. If you truly desire the position of Heavenly Emperor, I can pass it on to you, but not through such means, snatching the position of Heavenly Emperor!"
His eyes icy, the Heavenly Emperor stated directly, showing no reservation.
Facing these words, Bei Cheng immediately sneered. "Don't worry. No one can stop what I intend to do, and I have already succeeded halfway. Once the entire capital falls, you will definitely not be my match!"
Facing these words, the Heavenly Emperor felt a sense of helplessness and sorrow. He did not wish to see this scene unfold, but it had already happened, catching him off guard and leaving him feeling somewhat powerless.
"Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor, with so many experts from the Hell Dynasty arriving, the entire capital will likely fall before long. We should leave this place as soon as possible!"
Many ministers spoke, appearing quite panicked. The situation had reached this point, and it was beyond their control.
"I am the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court, how can I be trapped by anyone!"
The Heavenly Emperor said coldly, "No matter what happens today, I will not leave the capital. Since the Hell Dynasty has a million-strong army, I would like to see what this million-strong army can do to me!"
With these words, everyone was filled with admiration. They had not expected the Heavenly Emperor to speak like this.
