Chapter 239 Emperor Yu Falls into Madness
Chapter 239 Emperor Yu Falls into Madness
Lin Lu's gaze remained steadfast!
Given Big Brother Gu's formidable strength, he had to strive hard to keep pace with him!
As the Child of Qi Fortune, he was certainly no ordinary person. As the original story depicted, before this, Lin Lu had also found his own opportunities on the battlefield!
After this battle, he planned to return and cultivate with his sister Lin Tan'er, so as not to hold back Big Brother Gu!
"Swoosh!"
The tent suddenly lifted, and everyone looked ahead to see Li Xiong approaching.
Li Xiong's cultivation had already reached the peak of immortality, far beyond the control of the mortal dynasty. Yet, out of loyalty to Gu Lan, he willingly served alongside Lin Lu in the military camp!
"General Li!"
Everyone stepped forward to salute.
Li Xiong smiled and said, "We are about to attack the city. I'm just here to see how well you are prepared."
Lin Lu smiled and said, "Naturally, we are prepared. My subordinates are eager, itching to be the first to cut down the flag of Great Yu!"
"Let's see who will be more formidable then!"
"Very well, prepare for the upcoming battle!"
Li Xiong said, adjusting his waist, "This is the final wave, don't take it lightly!"
With his words, everyone agreed in unison.
In the military camp, drums echoed, banners fluttered, soldiers trained with shouts, and the sound shook the heavens!
They only awaited the commander's command to push forward and conquer the great city of Emperor Yu!
...
At the same time, in an unnamed cave.
A loud rumbling sounded, sending mud and sand flying as a gust of wind roared.
Chen Feng emerged covered in mud and dust.
"Hahaha!"
"I've finally broken through!"
"Now I have reached the initial level of the king!"
"Who in the world can compete with me now?"
Chen Feng's eyes were proud, chin held high as he shouted.
He looked in the direction of Jing Nation with confidence, ready to make a name for himself!
Surviving a desperate situation, and breaking through in strength, he had enough confidence to make a mark in Jing Nation!
...
One day later.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Drums echoed across the wilderness.
Lin Lu, clad in white armor, stood with the commander's flag waving behind him, and with a command, the soldiers surged forward.
After a night of rest, the soldiers of Jing Nation shouted as they climbed the ladders onto the city walls!
The defending soldiers of Great Yu resisted for a moment before collapsing outright.
A large number of Jing Nation soldiers surged forward, trampling over enemy corpses!
The troops surged like a tide, swords and blades flashing!
The entire city of Emperor Yu trembled!
In the palace hall, the courtiers gathered once again.
The ministers who once looked down upon the world now had flickering eyes, filled with fear.
There was no order among them.
The building was on the verge of collapse, hanging by a thread!
"Your Majesty!"
"The imperial city is about to be breached, what should we do?"
"To fight or to surrender... Your Majesty, you must make a decision!"
Equivalent to the rank of Sima Qin, the prime minister of Great Yu, held an ivory plaque and urgently asked.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"The enemy is too fierce, and victory seems impossible. I suggest... surrender first!"
"This way, the safety of the people in the imperial city can be ensured!"
"Our families and we, your officials, are all in the city. Your Majesty, please think twice!"
The courtiers all stepped forward to echo.
Emperor Yu sat on the dragon throne, looking at the courtiers.
Only in times of great peril are true characters revealed!
These courtiers, who had long held high positions, had lost their patriotic zeal.
They only wanted to survive!
Previously, they were so stubborn and unwilling to bow to Jing Nation, but now they were so humble and compliant, hoping for a chance to survive!
"Hehehe..."
Emperor Yu couldn't help but laugh, his eyes filled with despair.
With weak forces and disloyal subjects!
The timing, the location, and the people, Great Yu had none in their favor!
For the past half year, Jing Nation had almost effortlessly conquered the entire territory of Great Yu, at a speed he had never imagined!
At this moment, there was no possibility of turning the tide!
Was the fate of Great Yu to end like this?
"Father!"
"Son... I...I think what the ministers said is right!"
"Jing Nation's forces are too strong, and the imperial city can't hold on anymore!"
"You should surrender, so that both I and the people of the royal family can survive. Then, our Great Yu won't be completely finished!"
The only surviving son of Emperor Yu, the Third Prince, approached him, showing filial piety.
Just as his older brothers had disappeared, he had not yet enjoyed the days of being the favored one when the Jing Nation army arrived.
The Third Prince didn't want to die. Surrendering could buy them some time!
Maybe the Empress of Jing Nation would reward them with a piece of land if they performed well.
"Surrender?"
Emperor Yu suddenly raised his head, his eyes fiercely staring at his only son.
The Third Prince was startled.
Before he could speak, Emperor Yu reached out.
"Whoosh!"
The Third Prince was pulled in front of him, his collar grabbed as Emperor Yu angrily rebuked.
"For generations, Great Yu has stood tall. As the only prince of Great Yu, you actually want to surrender to the enemy and seek a mere survival?!"
"You deserve to die!"
"Father, I didn't mean to, I... Ah!"
The Third Prince suddenly screamed.
Before he could say anything, Emperor Yu thrust his finger like a knife into his heart, creating a bloody hole from which blood gushed out.
"Your Majesty!"
"What... is this..."
The courtiers never expected Emperor Yu to kill the Third Prince. They were shocked and stepped back, looking at the mad Emperor Yu in horror!
Emperor Yu raised the Third Prince crazily, and the bright red blood poured down his face.
A bloody smell permeated the air as a faint phantom imprint emerged and disappeared into Emperor Yu's palm.
"Crack!"
Emperor Yu let go, and the Third Prince's body trembled, his bones creaking, his neck drooping, already devoid of breath!
The Emperor Yu imprint planted in his body was forcibly pulled out by Emperor Yu and absorbed into his own body!
In fact.
When he planted the Emperor Yu imprint on his close ones, he was not unprepared for this day to come. It's just that he didn't expect it to come so soon...
Emperor Yu turned to look at the ministers in the hall!
His eyes were full of madness, his hair disheveled, and blood dripping down his hair and chin, like a demon!
He didn't hesitate to kill his own son at the slightest provocation, displaying the utmost cruelty!
The ministers were all terrified!
Their shock and fear were beyond words!
"You all deserve to die!"
"May the prosperity of Great Yu last forever!"
"I will not tolerate any curses or derogation from you!"
"Go and die!"
Emperor Yu roared, his true energy enveloping his body and forming a swirling vortex.
The ministers who had just bravely stepped forward to advise surrender turned and ran.
But how could they outrun the instantaneous eruptive power of Emperor Yu, who was at the peak of immortality?
"Ah!"
"Your Majesty, have mercy!"
A chorus of screams resounded.
Under the impact of Emperor Yu's true energy, the ministers fell to the ground like harvested wheat.
Blood splattered, staining the court red!
The blood swirled among the piles of bodies, creating a terrifying scene akin to a purgatory!
"You are all afraid of Jing Nation!"
"But I am not!"
"I will use the destiny of the nation to eradicate all enemies invading Jing Nation!"
"Condense!"
Emperor Yu raised both hands high, strands of blood plasma floating up from the ground, forming threads that surged toward his body!
A dragon shadow appeared around Emperor Yu, representing the destiny of Great Yu!
However, at this moment, the dragon's shadow was tainted by blood, devoid of any majestic righteousness, appearing sinister and evil!
With the lives of thousands of subjects as offerings!
Blood sacrifices to the destiny of the nation!
"Woo!"
The blood-red dragon shadow suddenly plunged into Emperor Yu's body.
"Your Majesty!"
"What is happening to Your Majesty?"
A group of Imperial Guards rushed over.
Upon arriving at the court, they saw the blood dragon possessing Emperor Yu. Emperor Yu suddenly opened his eyes, blood-red pupils emitting a strange light!
Emperor Yu waved his hand, and the Imperial Guards screamed in agony as countless blood mists burst forth and were drawn towards Emperor Yu, absorbed into his body!
Emperor Yu's momentum suddenly skyrocketed, far surpassing what was before, and his body filled with evil power!
"Kill!"
"No one can take my kingdom away from me!"
Emperor Yu roared furiously, his hair flying, and rushed out of the palace towards the battlefield!
The destiny of the nation tainted by blood had turned into demonic energy!
A large swath of black-red aura enveloped the area, covering a radius of thousands of feet!
Any living creature engulfed by the demonic energy, whether it be witches, spirits, old or young, would collapse and die on the spot!
Emperor Yu advanced with demonic energy, massacring all the way, turning the streets of the imperial city into a hellish scene!
On the city walls, Jing Nation soldiers charged bravely.
The remaining Great Yu defense forces were riddled with holes, unable to hold the defense line.
Many places were cut open and fell into the hands of Jing Nation soldiers.
Jing Nation flags were raised on the walls, fluttering in the wind!
Lin Lu watched the battle satisfactorily from horseback below the city walls.
At this moment, the situation of the battle was clear. As long as the city walls were breached, Great Yu could be declared destroyed!
Just then, he suddenly looked up and saw dark clouds churning in the sky ahead.
In the black clouds, there were flashes of dark red light, extremely sinister and coming towards the city walls!
This power made Lin Lu suddenly uneasy!
"Ah!"
"Ah!"
A chorus of screams came from the top of the wall.
The black mist shrouded the city walls that had just been occupied by Jing Nation soldiers. The black-red demonic mist churned, directly devouring all flesh and blood, including the Great Yu soldiers!
A large number of soldiers turned into dry corpses and fell off the wall.
The incident happened suddenly, causing shock and horror on the battlefield!

"Great Yu will never perish!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Emperor Yu, with disheveled hair, stood in mid-air, roaring loudly.
Under the black-red demonic mist, his appearance was as terrifying as a demon!
Lin Lu couldn't help but shrink his pupils, never expecting Emperor Yu to become like this!
And it seemed that his strength had increased significantly!
"Emperor Yu!"
"With just you, you dare to try to stop our Jing Nation's iron cavalry!"
"No matter what demonic sorcery you use, you can only watch as Great Yu is destroyed!"
Laughter echoed as a heavy figure burst out from the banners, none other than Misty Rain Building's main figure, Li Xiong, who was of the same rank as Emperor Yu!
"It's impossible!"
"I will never allow Great Yu to be destroyed!"
Emperor Yu stared with blood-red eyes and struck out with his palm.
Li Xiong didn't back down at all, directly displaying a hundred-foot blade aura, which slashed towards Emperor Yu's side, but was blocked by the black-red demonic energy and swept away.
Seeing the shattered blade aura, Li Xiong roared again and leaped forward, advancing instead of retreating.
His true energy surged and formed a giant python composed of cold light, charging fiercely.
The demonic energy shook the heavens.
For a moment, the two sides fought fiercely...
