"I heard that the Southern Barbarian Kingdom and the Xiwu Empire went to war. How is the battle now?" Ye Chen asked.

Hearing Ye Chen's question, Emperor Mingwu, who was thinking, said: "To be ashamed, the latest battle situation is that eight counties in the Xiwu Empire have fallen, including Donglin County."

"Donglin County?" Ye Chen frowned.

Emperor Mingwu immediately said: "I sent someone to Donglin County to pick up the Ye family to evacuate Donglin County, but I have never found the Ye family's location. News came from Donglin County that the Ye family attacked the army of the Southern Barbarian Kingdom and killed thousands of enemies, but it seemed that several tribe members had died."

"How many tribe members have died?" Ye Chen suddenly clenched his fists, and the cold light flashed in his eyes. There were not many members of the Ye family, and so far, there were only a few thousand children. To Ye Chen, it was tantamount to stabbing a clan in the heart. As long as the Ye family continues to stay in that valley, it should be safe for the time being, but it may not be necessary after a long time. When should I go back to the Ye family quickly!

Seeing Ye Chen's expression, Emperor Mingwu already understood how important the Ye family members were in Ye Chen's heart.

"There is another thing. Yinbei County has also fallen. Uncle Yin has already died in battle. This is a letter he left to you." Emperor Mingwu handed Ye Chen a sealed letter, with a little sad expression. He had tried to send someone to rescue Yin Mengtian, but it was too late when his people passed by. Yin Mengtian was caught in seven arrows, standing on the wall of Yinbei County, and looking at the imperial capital. Before the Uncle Emperor died in battle, he probably wanted to say a few words to him, but there was no chance. But Emperor Mingwu knew what the Uncle wanted to say. The ancestors of the Yin family had lived in this land for generations. The country was not destroyed and the bloodline was not broken!

Ye Chen was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Prince Yin would die in battle. He remembered the first time he met Prince Yin underground in the Lianyun Mountains before. Prince Yin's voice, appearance and smile seemed to be vivid in his mind. He still remembered the words that Prince Yin said, but he didn't expect that life was impermanent. Ye Chen stretched out his hand, took the letter from Emperor Mingwu, and opened it apart.

"I met my friend Ye Chen and became friends of my age for a long time. It was a great blessing for me Yin Mengtian in my life. Unfortunately, I have never been able to drink and talk. The loyal bones are buried everywhere in the green mountains, so why should I return the body? Yin Mengtian is a member of the Yin royal family. It is Yin Mengtian's duty to die for the Yin royal family. Even if he dies, he will not regret it. Just as the Ye family was not willing to leave the people of Yinbei who are living in a vain and silence in the Western Wu Empire. I have a ruthless request. Yin Mengtian knew that with the national strength of the Western Wu Empire, he could not fight against the Southern Barbarians. If Ye Chen's ability is enough, please help the Yin royal family retain a trace of blood. I am grateful to Yin Mengtian for kowtowing."

After reading Yin Mengtian's letter, Ye Chen sighed with emotion. Ye Chen has always admired Yin Mengtian's integrity and character. Knowing the news of Yin Mengtian's death, Ye Chen felt sad and heartache in his heart.

"When the Emperor was there, he was deeply loved by the people of Yinbei. When he was killed in battle, 600,000 people in Yinbei County voluntarily died with the Emperor." Even though his heart was as hard as Emperor Wu of Ming, his heart was as cut as a knife, and his eyes were red.

Looking at the letter in his hand, Ye Chen was silent for a long time. How could Ye Chen not agree to such an elder’s request! Prince Yin, rest in peace, I will definitely help the Xiwu Empire fight to the death to the end. If I can’t help the heavens, I will also protect your Yin royal family’s bloodline. Ye Chen’s left palm moved slightly, and a ball of purple fire burned the letter, and pieces of ashes were flying like butterflies.

"What are the arrangements for Brother Mingwu next?" Ye Chen looked at Emperor Mingwu and said. He had changed his name to Emperor Mingwu. With Ye Chen's current strength, he had already surpassed the country.

Emperor Mingwu didn't care about the change of title. Ye Chen himself was so strong and had an unexpected background. Even Nie Qingyun and others were very respectful to Ye Chen.

Emperor Mingwu said: "According to the news I have received, in addition to Tuoba Hongye, a middle-stage Xuanzun powerhouse, there are four Heavenly Venerable masters. Among the four Heavenly Venerable masters, one of the four Heavenly Venerable masters was seriously injured, so only three Heavenly Venerable masters can fight. Tuoba Hongye himself should not come to the Xiwu Empire. With our strength, we should be able to deal with the remaining three Heavenly Venerable masters, but they are still unable to understand their movements for the time being. In addition, Tuoba Hongye has a powerful sect background behind him, so he may find helpers. These Tiannan Barbarian troops have not attacked the imperial capital and are likely to be waiting."

"Sect background?" Ye Chen was quite confused.

"Yes. The Southern Barbarian Kingdom and our Xiwu Empire have all surrendered to some major sects of the Central Empire. The one who surrendered to our Xiwu Empire was a sect called Leiyin Sect. That sect was originally a first-class sect in the Central Empire, but later it became weaker. The Southern Barbarian Kingdom surrendered to a large sect called Huoxie Sect. In recent years, using sharp means, they have squeezed into the top ten sects of the Central Empire." Emperor Mingwu said.

After hearing the words of Emperor Mingwu, Ye Chen understood that the struggle between these countries was secretly manipulated by the forces of the Central Empire. No wonder the sects of the Central Empire did not annex these small countries. It is estimated that those large sects had no interest in conquering these small countries, but just treated these small countries as pawns.

I don’t know how strong the Fire Evil Sect is, but Ye Chen remembered that he had a Lion King Order in his hand. This Lion King Order could randomly dispatch people from Tianji Sect and Xuanming Sect. Tianji Sect and Xuanming Sect are both top five major sects in the central empire. It would be great if he could bring some masters from there, but this place is too far away from the central empire, and the far water cannot save the near fire.

This battle still depends on yourself!

Ye Chen had a deep brow. He didn't know how many masters would come from the Southern Barbarian Kingdom. With his mid-stage strength of Xuan Zun, he could deal with it. However, no matter how many masters came, he would be the next one. Ye Chen was in a turbulent sense of fighting. After practicing during this period, he was worried that he would not be able to find an opponent. As long as the opponent was not a God Lord and a Demon King-level strongman, Ye Chen would dare to fight. It is estimated that the Southern Barbarian Kingdom would not be able to invite the Demon King-level strongman, Demon King-level strongman.

"I don't know which sects are there in the Central Empire?" Ye Chen asked. He didn't know much about the situation in the Central Empire so far.

Emperor Mingwu thought Ye Chen wanted to estimate the strength of the Huo Xie Sect, so he said: "There are thirty-one sects in the central empire in total, from top to bottom, namely Canglan Palace, Xuanming Sect, Tianji Sect, Chiyan Sect, Cangyun Valley, Huo Xie Sect, Qinyin Sect, etc. The rankings are occasionally floating, but this first one has never changed. It is said that Canglan Palace has an early-stage master in the Canglan Palace. It is unknown whether it is true or not. The other sects, the top-level masters of Xuanzun, have more than ten people. Canglan Palace, Xuanming Sect, and Tianji Sect. It is said that each sect has more than thirty masters at the Xuanzun level or above."

After seeing a master like Fu Yu and Dan Tai Ling, Ye Chen didn't feel that there were many Xuanzun-level masters in these sects. He thought to himself that these sects were just like this. The truly powerful forces should be some super existences, such as the Law Enforcement Hall, the Great Demon King Hall, etc. These sects are just the traitors of those super forces.

But now, these sects are not comparable to Ye Chen.

"Let's wait a few days to see what's happening in the Southern Barbarian Kingdom!" Ye Chen thought for a while and watched it. After all, even if they wanted to take the initiative to attack, they had no idea where to start. They had to wait until Emperor Mingwu got new information.

"Ye Chen, where is the raccoon cat who has been following you?" Sylphy Yao Zun asked. Only then did he notice that Ah Li who had been following Ye Chen was missing.

Hearing the words of Sylphy Yao Zun, Ye Chen lowered his head, was a little silent, revealing a hint of sadness and loneliness.

Seeing Ye Chen's expression, Sylphy Medicine Zun and Emperor Mingwu understood a little, and did not ask again with tactfulness.

"I will ask someone to arrange a residence for you and Xiaoyi. If there is any situation, I will send someone to notify you at any time." Emperor Mingwu said.

"Okay." Ye Chen nodded and said, after living in the palace for so long, Ye Chen is no stranger to him.

Ye Chen and Xiao Yi were arranged to stay in a different courtyard. They were waiting for news from the Southern Barbarian Kingdom these days. In addition to eating and sleeping, they were practicing hard, especially Ye Chen, who was like he was desperate when he was practicing. The crazy level of his cultivation was even shocked by the Lion Master.

It seems that only crazy practice can make Ye Chen temporarily forget his longing for Ah Li.

As night gradually fell, Ye Chen finally got tired after two consecutive days of practice. He lay on the bed in the other courtyard and fell asleep.

The bright moon hangs high, and a bright moonlight projected on Ye Chen's bed.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred, and the psychedelic beads collected by Ye Chen were suspended. After the moonlight shone on the psychedelic beads, the psychedelic beads suddenly shone brightly, and the milky white light shone on Ye Chen's body.

The psychedelic orb was suspended there quietly, as if it was swallowing and spitting out the moonlight. In the white light, there seemed to be a very small figure standing. She was as beautiful as a fairy falling into the mortal world. Her fair skin was shining with bright jade ze under the moonlight. Her eight tails kept swaying, and a pair of pointed ears, which were extremely cute.

She was extremely beautiful and cute, like a dream, and it was Ali who Ye Chen thought about day and night.

After the white light shone on Ye Chen's body, Ye Chen's frowning finally stretched out.

Ah Li in the white light was like a moonlight elf. She was wearing a white gauze dress, revealing her perfect neck, delicate shoulders, and her concave and delicate figure, round and smooth, proud and suffocating. Her beautiful and flawless jade feet were spotted in the air and danced gracefully.

Anyone who sees this scene may think it is a dream.

A hint of redness appeared on Ah Li's face, and the fair skin on her body seemed to have a hint of redness, as if she had encountered something extremely shy, adding a bit of charm to her, like a beautiful first lotus, blooming quietly.
