章节标题:《神君左使临危授计》

天極荒野,三峰錯之地,霾籠罩,.signal the impending doom that hangs heavy in the air. The land, etched with scars of old battles, lay silent and desolate, the skies above shadowed by dark crows that seem to portend the worst.
Centered amidst these peaks, four ossuary pillars rise, their crowns adorned with the skulls of fallen warriors, encircling and protecting the blackened sanctuary within. From the soles of these pillars, a raven perches, its crimson eyes gazing toward the sanctuary, fixated on the figure of the handsome man who is making his way toward the entrance.
Inside the sanctuary, a handsome man stepped through the threshold, his presence commanding silence from the twelve formidable individuals who stood along the walls. Each觀察者眼中閃過一敬畏,甚至連呼吸都變得小心翼翼。
“Prostrate yourselves, and welcome, the Deputy Emperor of the God King, Hui Meng!”
Instantly, the assembly of the immortal hordes of the dead族 dropped to their knees, their reverence evident in their obeisance.
The handsome man who had entered was none other than the Deputy Emperor, Hui Meng, the chosen one of the God King. Since he had been dispatched to the front lines, he had wielded a formidable hand, subjugating all local dukes and immortals of the rank of Xian Wang, thus solidifying his grip on power and information.
Now, Hui Meng, standing in the midst of the crowd, remarked with a casual air, “It seems that the human race is celebrating their so-called ‘Xian Age Festival’ now. Such a trivial matter in times like these, truly laughable. It appears that the terror we once sowed in their hearts has been almost entirely eroded over the millennium.”
At this, a dead族 minion interjected, “Since the humans are so complacent, why don’t we take the initiative and strike them with an element of surprise?”
The man’s words caused a stir, but it was a purple-faced man, his eyes half-closed, who spoke next, “If it were Brother Hun’s time, we might take such an aggressive stance. But now that he has fallen to the tricks of that星辰宇, we are lacking in one arm. We cannot afford to be hasty.”
The muscular minion, upon hearing this, furrowed his brow, feeling neither he nor anyone else could afford to argue with this purple-faced man, for he was the Fourth among the twelve palace masters, the revered冥尊。
Among them were four elders, and without Hui Meng present, the position of the elder was the most powerful. It was no wonder that no one dared to question him.
At this moment, Hui Meng chuckled and said, “Brother Hun’s fall is indeed a great loss for our kind. It is precisely because of his absence that the humans have dared to hold their festivals so freely.”
The elder, slowly opening his eyes, nodded, “Brother Hun was a formidable opponent, a true ally. But the fact remains that Brother Hun is gone, and with him, our edge has been blunted. With our current situation, we can only content ourselves with maintaining our positions and not daring to overstep our bounds.”
The elder’s words were met with nods of agreement from the group, recognizing the gravity of their current predicament.
Hui Meng, seeing an opening, smiled, “In fact, I anticipate that Brother Hao will take the initiative and strike soon. This is the only chance they have to get a taste of victory, for as we well know, once the God King returns, they will have no hope left.”
The word of the god king’s imminent revival sent a shiver through the gathering, even the elder’s expression flickered with surprise.
“What? Is it true that the God King is about to awaken?”
At this sudden revelation, the expressions of the dead族 minions fluctuated, some furrowing their brows in disbelief.
After all, tens of thousands of years ago, the God King had clashed with the Lord of the Cinnabar World and the Fire God, suffering a severe injury before vanquishing both. His recovery was a constant sore spot for the dead族.
However, it was precisely because of the God King’s triumph that the dead族’s army was able to storm the lands unchecked. It was only until a century ago, when that星辰宇 emerged and dealt them a staggering defeat, that the dead族 had to pull back from their relentless offensive.
Now, the dead族 had maintained a stalemate with the human race, with the humans barely holding their own with the help of the Zunwu Peak array and the combined forces of various factions. Yet, the advantage still resided with the dead族.
However, this stalemate was a war of attrition. If the God King were to return, even with all of their combined forces, they would stand no chance against the God King.
Hui Meng, with a casual air, replied, “If they are wise, they will strike now. This is the only slim chance they have to win. Once this opportunity is gone, with the God King revival on the horizon, they will have no hope left.”
The words were a wake-up call for the dead族, and they exchanged looks of realization.
“So, the Deputy Emperor is saying that the humans will not hesitate to launch an offensive?”
This time, Hui Meng laughed, a sly grin playing upon his lips.
“The humans will have to make a move. But I, Hui Meng, am eager to see just how formidable they can be. After all, even that Red Yan was no match for him.”
“How can I not be excited to see if you will live up to your reputation, Hao Tian?”
The minions exchanged looks, but dared not contradict the Deputy Emperor. They were all aware that Hui Meng spoke with the voice of the God King himself.
The elder then asked, “What strategy does the Deputy Emperor suggest?”
Hui Meng, smiling slightly, looked toward the sanctuary’s threshold, as if seeing through to the horizon beyond.
“In short, I predict that they will make a move. But whether they do or not, you must all be vigilant in your posts. If they do strike, you shall be ready to meet them head-on.”
The elder, understanding the gravity of the situation, nodded firmly.
“If the Deputy Emperor commands, we shall stand ready!”
With these words, Hui Meng nodded, satisfaction etched upon his handsome face.
He turned to summon a raven once again, his mouth forming a knowing smile.
“Hao Tian, I am eager to see you in action. I hope you will not disappoint me.”
So spoke the Deputy Emperor, Hui Meng, setting the stage for what would soon unfold.
