Wu Shattered Star River

The next morning, a Great Commander came knocking early, urging Lord Feng Yi and the others to gather and teleport away from the Southern Domain together.

At Lord Feng Yi's prompting, everyone dawdled, busying themselves for a full hour until the three hundred Great Commanders were finally assembled when the sun was high in the sky.

The Southern Domain Army Great Commander had his soldiers begin counting heads to ensure no one was missing. After confirming that everyone was present, the Great Commander led Lord Feng Yi and the others towards a large castle.

Outside the large castle, two Domain Lord-level powerhouses were already waiting. However, Lord Chang Lin was nowhere to be seen; instead, Lord Chang Li had arrived, along with an unfamiliar Domain Lord-level powerhouse.

Lord Chang Li swept his gaze over Lord Feng Yi and the others before glancing at the Great Commander, who replied, "Reporting to Lord Chang Li and Lord Long Jiang, all personnel from the Northern Desolate Army are present, none missing."

"Arrange the teleportation!"

Lord Chang Li waved his hand dismissively and led the way inside. The group entered the castle, where a large hall housed four giant teleportation arrays, each leading to nearby great domains or the ancestral city in the Ancestral Domain.

Lord Chang Li turned to Lord Feng Yi and asked, "Are you going to the Southeastern Domain?"

Lord Feng Yi nodded slightly, "Yes, we plan to return to the Northern Desolate Realm via the Boundary River."

Lord Chang Li turned his gaze to the two Great Commanders guarding the teleportation array and said, "Activate the teleportation array and send them away!"

"Buzz~"

The two Great Commanders each released streams of light, activating the giant teleportation array. Lord Feng Yi sensed the surrounding environment, confirming there were no powerhouses within the great castle. She glanced at Jiang Han.

Jiang Han nodded slightly, and Lord Feng Yi suddenly flashed, flying towards another teleportation array.

Lord Chang Li and Lord Long Jiang immediately turned their attention to her, and Lord Chang Li shouted angrily, "Lord Feng Yi, what are you doing?"

"Buzz~"

Almost simultaneously, Jiang Han unleashed a nine-colored ray of light, forming a River of Time. Ma Ji and the others immediately retreated to avoid being caught in the River of Time.

At such close range, the River of Time instantly spread, engulfing both Lord Chang Li and Lord Long Jiang, shrinking their bodies rapidly until they were the size of mosquitoes.

"Uh…"

Inside the castle, only four Southern Domain Army Great Commanders were present. They stared in astonishment at the scene unfolding before them.

"Whoosh!"

Lord Feng Yi moved swiftly, giving the four no time to react. She struck each of them with her palm, injuring them.

Then, she took out the gourd, and a powerful suction force emanated from it, drawing the four Great Commanders into the gourd.

"Jiang Han, hurry!"

Lord Feng Yi shouted. Jiang Han quickly began inscribing in the void, and a gate of light appeared. Jiang Han yelled, "Enter!"

"咻咻咻咻!"

Ma Ji and the others entered in quick succession. The Great Commanders rushed into the gate of light with astonishing speed. In just over ten breaths, all three hundred Great Commanders had entered the light gate.

Just as Jiang Han rushed into the gate of light, the River of Time collapsed.

He vaguely saw Lord Chang Li being thrown out, roaring, "Lord Feng Yi, this is Azure King City! If you dare to cause trouble, even the Northern Desolate King won't be able to save you!"

"Boom boom boom!"

Lord Feng Yi ignored him, her phoenix armor appearing around her body, and she wielded a red spear, continuously thrusting it at Lord Chang Li and Lord Long Jiang, giving them no chance to call for help.

The spear moved like a dragon, each strike aimed to kill.

Lord Chang Li and Lord Long Jiang were not as strong as Lord Feng Yi and could only defend with difficulty. Lord Long Jiang tried several times to rush out of the castle but was forced back by Lord Feng Yi.

Outside, soldiers noticed the commotion and rushed towards the castle.

However, how could they interfere in a battle between Domain Lord-level powerhouses? The soldiers were all dumbfounded, unsure of what to do.

Lord Chang Li blocked a spear from Lord Feng Yi, turning his head to roar, "What are you all standing there for? Go to the Heavenly Yuan Marquis's residence and find Heavenly Fire Lord! Have him send a message to Heavenly Yuan Marquis, saying that Lord Feng Yi and her group have rebelled!"

"咻咻咻!"

A group of soldiers hurried away. There were too many soldiers for Lord Feng Yi to stop them without resorting to mass slaughter.

But she dared not kill, or even her grandfather couldn't protect her.

Hearing Lord Chang Li's words, she felt a sense of relief.

Everything was as she expected. There were no Marquis-level powerhouses stationed in the city; they had probably all gone to the Myriad Flowers Valley.

By the time the soldiers found Heavenly Fire Lord and relayed the message to Heavenly Yuan Marquis, Jiang Han, Ma Ji, and the others would have already arrived outside the Myriad Flowers Valley, right?

"Jiang Han, this is all I can do to help you!"

Lord Feng Yi sighed inwardly. She had done all she could. What would happen next was beyond her control; everything depended on fate.

…

If they were intercepted before reaching Myriad Flowers Valley, their efforts would be in vain.

They flew rapidly, passing over mountains and rivers with no sign of civilization. Jiang Han deliberately controlled the distance, teleporting them perhaps twenty thousand li.

According to the map, they needed to fly another ten thousand li. Myriad Flowers Valley was only a few thousand li from Azure King City.

"Fly along this great river!"

While flying, Ma Ji glanced at the map and called out.

There was a large river on the map that flowed past Myriad Flowers Valley. They only needed to follow the river to reach Myriad Flowers Valley.

They flew quickly, and in less than half an incense stick's worth of time, they saw a huge valley in the distance. Warships were hovering outside the valley, and more were rapidly approaching from afar.

"We're here!"

Everyone's eyes lit up. They were about to reach Myriad Flowers Valley; their plan was half successful.

"咻咻咻!"

As they approached within several hundred li of Myriad Flowers Valley, squads of soldiers took to the air below, led by several Great Commanders. There were five or six hundred soldiers in total.

"You all charge straight ahead, I'll hold them back!"

Jiang Han called out. Attacking the Southern Domain Army was a serious crime. The three hundred Great Commanders had followed him and risked everything; he already felt guilty and couldn't let them act.

He flew towards the hundreds of soldiers, while Ma Ji quickly led the others to detour around them.

"This is Myriad Flowers Valley, the residence of Azure Bamboo King! Who are you? Stop immediately! Anyone who dares to trespass will be killed without mercy!"

A Great Commander shouted from afar, but Jiang Han ignored him, flying straight towards the army.

"Courting death!"

A Great Commander roared in anger, flying out from the army and thrusting his spear at Jiang Han.
