Bitter Realm: My Feet Step Through the Flames of War

Just as the two were discussing, a mournful voice rang out. Although Xuanjue could not see, he turned his head accurately toward Jiwu King.

"Your Majesty, is this your choice? To succumb to violence, ignoring the corpses of the victims before you."

"Taigong, futile resistance will only bring more casualties to the shattered island."

"The three who died tragically today were all important officials of the Broken Island. If even important officials cannot be protected, what about the common people?"

"So, what does the Empress Dowager mean?"

“I am ashamed of the king’s retreat today! After this day, I have no face to return to the royal court. Please allow me to retire and return to my hometown, Thorn Island forever.”

"The Imperial Palace..."

Xuanjue pushed away the maid who came to help him and stumbled out of the palace.

"The Imperial Palace!"

King Jiwu wanted to give chase, but was stopped by Rahu.

"From this day forward, the Isle of Slaughter will truly be your kingdom."

"What do you mean?"

"With the departure of the Grand Chancellor and the death of the Grand Chancellor, you can now consolidate political and military power in your own hands."

"The elders of the King Tree Hall are the true kings of the Broken Island."

Luo Hou sighed, "Haven't you noticed that my men are not here?"

King Jiwu exclaimed in surprise, "You actually dare to do this? How dare you!"

"I have overstepped my bounds, I apologize."

At this moment, Wang Shudian, the elder Tuxi, looked at Huang Quan in despair, the Silver Moon Spear only an inch away from his heart.

The Left Elder and the Right Elder were already lying in pools of blood.

“Write down your incriminating evidence: you colluded with Wuyi Shiyin of the Tower of Compassion to frame King Jiwu and install the eldest son of Hengdao as king.”

"That's not true. I am utterly loyal to King Jiwu!"

"Not writing it? Then you'll be just like them."

The spear tip pierced the snow-white sacrificial robe, and instantly, a smear of crimson seeped out.

Elder Tusi shouted loudly, "Write! Write! I'll write!"

Cui Luohan handed over the paper and ink, explaining as she watched him write each word, then handed it to Xiao Jiandun for inspection.

"Correct."

Hearing that Ya Shao was right, Elder Tu Xi and Huang Quan both breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, with a "thud," the Silver Moon Spear pierced deeply into Tusi's body.

"Ah~ you guys!"

"If you don't pull the weeds out by the roots, they'll grow back in the spring breeze. That's what he taught me."

When Elder Tusi's confession was handed to King Jiwu, he was stunned.

"The elders' treason is well-documented. As for who will be appointed as elders in the future, I don't need to tell you anymore, do I?"

"I want to use a woman!"

"can."

King Jiwu was taken aback again: "You don't object to women holding divine positions?"

“I do not believe in God, and besides, there are plenty of women in the capital.”

"There are indeed quite a lot of women in Tiandu."

Luo Hou's voice carried a slight smile: "King Ji Wu, you owe me another debt."

"Ok?"

Ji Wu Wang's heart skipped a beat. What did he mean by that?

Xiangling gave the antidote that Han Yancui had left for her to Luo Hou.

“Sister Cui said that if I give her the antidote, I can do whatever I want with her. Lord Wu, I want to take Sister Cui to the Bitter Realm and bury her in Xiangyue Residence. This is her wish.”

"Yes, thank you, Xiangling."

Raven Soul took the antidote to Jumang Red City and healed Ghost Prison Evil God and Silver Moon Greedy Wolf.

Soon, the army of the Dead Kingdom, led by Asura, crossed the Brahma Pass, traversed the Shattered Isles of Slaughter, and headed straight for the Maha Pass.

An epic battle is about to begin.

(Please give me your monthly votes, my darlings!)

Chapter 122 Asura Pushes the Tower

Master Wuyi waited anxiously beneath the Tower of Compassionate Light.

This colossal tower stands three thousand feet tall, its spire connecting with the poetic heavenly city. The Four Heavenly Sources flow down to the mortal realm through this tower.

The source of heaven is inexhaustible, and the compassionate light shines eternally.

This tower also became the name of the country of the Tower of Compassion.

Upon receiving Yuan Bie's message last night, Shi Yin reported to the Mi Realm Lord and urged him to use the Blood Demon Feather to contact the Dragon Emperor of the Heavenly Realm and request reinforcements.

Unexpectedly, the Dragon Emperor was in seclusion, and the one who spoke with the Lord of the Extinction Realm was the Crown Prince, Heavenly Venerable Huang Yin.

The Heavenly Venerable Emperor Yin promised to send people to provide support, but hung up without going into details of the plan.

The attitude of the Heavenly Realm greatly worried Wu Yi Shi Yin.

Not long ago, the Heavenly Venerable Emperor visited the Tower of Compassionate Light, saying that he hadn't seen the Emperor for many years and wanted to reconnect.

In reality, I thoroughly examined the Tower of Compassionate Light, almost digging three feet into the ground.

The Heavenly Venerable Emperor Yin seemed not to have noticed anything amiss, and returned home politely.

The Lord of the Mi Realm and Master Wuyi were on edge for several days, but the Heavenly Realm made no move, so they were relieved.

If it weren't for the sudden invasion by the Kingdom of the Dead, Wuyi Shiyi would never have provoked the people of the Heavenly Realm. The Tower of Compassionate Light has too many shady dealings, and there will always be a day when things are exposed.

Last night, he suggested to the Lord of the Extinction Realm, "Why don't we close the Four Heavenly Sources and seal the Tower of Compassionate Light now?"

After some thought, the Lord of the Realm still rejected the idea: "We are not prepared for the closure. Moreover, even if we close it now, the people who slaughtered Shattered Island will not die out immediately. Instead, it will force King Jiwu to join forces with the Death Kingdom."

The only solution is for the heavens to send troops to provide support.

Although the Five Dragons of the Heavenly Empire have not fully returned, the Heavenly Venerable Emperor's offspring was a powerful figure comparable to the Yadi King in his prime, and the Blazing Crimson Scale was born with six claws, making it even stronger than the Heavenly Venerable Emperor's offspring.

With these two men, how could we fear not retreating even if we die for our country?

Master Yin, who had no clothes, looked on with longing.

Finally, a burly figure descended from the tower, clad in a blood-red battle robe, wielding a thunder blade, exuding arrogance and displaying the aura of a powerful being.

"Laughing at the heroes of the past and present, I ignite a battle with a single blade. With my sword drawn, I raise my crimson blade to the sky, my divine power sealing the boundary."

It was none other than the Dragon Emperor's own son, the Fiery Crimson Scale.

Wuyi Shiyin was slightly disappointed not to see the Heavenly Venerable Emperor's heir, but since the Blazing Red Scale had arrived, he figured the Heavenly Realm wouldn't stand idly by.

He went to greet him: "Your Highness has condescended to come to our aid in person. On behalf of my lord and my people, I am deeply grateful. With the powerful assistance of the Five Heavenly Dragons, our worries will be resolved."

"That's easy to say."

"The army of the dead nation has reached the Great Moat."

"Lead the way."

Wu Yi Shi Yin tentatively asked, "I wonder if the prince knew Luo Hou when he was in the Bitter Realm?"

The Crimson Scale replied indifferently, "I heard from my elder brother that I died in the Bitter Realm after killing the Twin Buddhas of the Buddha's Deeds. My comrade at that time was the Martial Lord Luo Hou. But I was reborn as a dragon soul, and I have no memory of the events in the Bitter Realm."

"I see."

"Are you worried that I'm showing favoritism? The Bitter Realm has nothing to do with me; the Blazing Crimson Scale adheres to only one belief."

What belief is it?

With a wave of his arm, the Fiery Crimson Scale roared, "Those who trespass upon the Four Realms deserve to die!"

Mahaqian.

The sea of ​​clouds is vast and empty.

Not a single soldier could be seen on the other side; the Tower of Compassion had magically sealed off the border, leaving only a vast expanse of empty clouds.

Rahu and Asura stood side by side.

He left Huang Quan and Cui Luohan on Broken Island, where they experimented with raising fish in the clouds and water, and also treated the women of Broken Island, hoping to find the reason for their infertility.

King Jiwu sent his personal guards, the two goddesses who performed the sacrificial ceremony, to accompany him, while he himself hurriedly arrived at the border.

Seeing that the Tower of Compassionate Light was avoiding battle, King Jiwu was worried: "The magic of Master Wuyi has always been powerful. It will probably take some time to break through this barrier."

Upon hearing this, Asura calmly said, "Please, Martial Lord, break through your realm."

Luo Hou waved his hand: "Asura's spatial magic is worth seeing."

"My magic is inferior to the Heaven-Shattering Star-Slaying Technique."

"You're being too modest."

King Jiwu asked, puzzled, "What do you mean?"

After all, it was the cause of the Kingdom of the Dead, and Asura had no choice but to take the lead. He stepped forward, channeling his surging true power, which pierced through heaven and earth.

"Mountains and rivers unite their essence, heaven and earth unite to open!"

In an instant, a huge opening appeared in the sea of ​​clouds, emitting a faint blue light that led to the depths of the Tower of Compassion.

Asura was the first to step into the cave.

One hundred thousand soldiers of the Dead Kingdom followed closely behind, filing in one after another.

"Charge! Kill them all!"
