Golden Ranking Appears, My Empress Turns Out to Be Wu Zhao

"This is indeed an Imperial Mausoleum!"

"Zhao Kuangyin truly knew how to deceive others, hiding the Dragon Vein here."

"The one in the north must be a fake Dragon Vein Land."

At Zhu Houzhao's speed, he quickly arrived at a massive mausoleum.

There was a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Fortunately, due to a twist of fate back then, both Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Kuangyi were killed.

Otherwise, if they had returned to the world, they would have brought him a lot of trouble.

He couldn't tell what strength the guardian of this Dragon Vein might possess.

A thought rose in his mind.

Zhu Houzhao instantly turned into a blur and entered the Imperial Mausoleum.

==========

At the same time.

In another part of the mountain range.

"Lord Director, this is great, we've finally escaped that ghost place!"

"We're no longer circling in place!"

"We were clearly trapped in a formation numbered '107', how did we suddenly get out?"

"Could it be someone helped us from the shadows?"

Hearing the voices around him, with Guo Jia's wisdom, he clearly understood that the one who saved them was none other than His Majesty.

However, His Majesty had no intention of showing himself.

It seemed the rest of this operation would rely on them alone.

At the same time, he let out a breath of relief.

With His Majesty around, even if they failed, His Majesty would definitely not.

The Dragon Vein and National Fortune of the Northern Song Dynasty would surely belong to His Majesty.

Their only task now was to thoroughly disrupt the enemy's attention.

They could not allow the other dynasties to learn about the Dragon Vein.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

As Guo Jia was distracted for a moment.

A series of attacks burst forth.

A moment of carelessness.

Several members of the Military Advisor Division under his command were seriously injured on the spot.

They were nearly killed.

"Who is it?"

"The Ming Dynasty! Guo Jia!"

Huang Shang gritted his teeth as he slowly stepped out.

At the same time, a group of cultivators from the Imperial City Division quickly surrounded them.

They stared at Guo Jia with hostility.

"Huang Shang?!"

"The Imperial City Division!!"

"Speak, what exactly is the Ming Dynasty planning?"

"What are you looking for? Why is His Majesty so enraged?"

Huang Shang was also extremely curious about why Zhao Ji was so furious.

No matter how he thought about it, he couldn't figure it out.

He had even tested Wei Liao and Yuan Tiangang, and their expressions showed they knew nothing either.

This made things all the more interesting!

"I don't know what you're talking about!"

"I was merely chasing a remnant of the Qing Dynasty and happened to stumble into this place by accident!"

"I never expected that my actions would cause such a massive misunderstanding from you all!"

"Guo Jia, don't think just because you're Rank 2 on the Advisor Ranking, I can't do anything to you!"

"Everyone, listen to my order! Attack!"

Huang Shang was eager to uncover the secret here and acted decisively.

He didn't care in the slightest about the Ming Emperor backing Guo Jia.

With Huang Shang's command, a fierce battle broke out.

Although Huang Shang was in the Mythical Realm, Guo Jia was no weakling.

Especially with the Immortal-Tier Advisor Skill granted by Heaven Dao Reward, which gave him terrifying boosts.

Huang Shang couldn't do a thing to him.

==========

"Marshal, are we not attacking immediately?"

On another side of the battlefield, hidden in a corner.

"Attack? Who are we attacking?"

"The Ming Dynasty? Or the Song Dynasty? Or should we wipe out both?"

"Of course the Song Dynasty! Aren't we here this time to destroy them? And Huang Shang is their most troublesome asset. If we kill him, Emperor Zhao Ji loses a vital arm."

"Wouldn't that make our next moves easier?"

"Foolish! Compared to the threat posed by the Ming Dynasty, the Song Dynasty is insignificant."

"Regardless, with many dynasties joining the attack, the Song Dynasty's fall is inevitable."

"Since that's the case, why not take this opportunity to weaken the Ming Dynasty?"

"Marshal, are you suggesting we target the Ming Dynasty and Guo Jia?"

"Not yet. We'll wait until both sides are completely exhausted. That's the best time to strike."

"If planned well, wiping out both sides may not be impossible."

"Marshal is truly wise!"

"Everyone, prepare yourselves!"

"When I give the order, we will fully assault the Ming Dynasty!"

"Yes, Marshal!"

==========

In an even more hidden location.

"Lord, down there are Guo Jia from the Ming Dynasty and Huang Shang from the Song Dynasty!"

"These two are the most trusted subjects of Emperors Zhu Houzhao and Zhao Ji."

"If we kill them, we will be cutting off both emperors' right arms!"

"Especially Guo Jia, who is Rank 2 on the Advisor Ranking."

"His threat level far surpasses that of Huang Shang."

"Even if we let Huang Shang go, we absolutely cannot spare Guo Jia..."

"I have a feeling that if we don't kill him now, he will bring unimaginable destruction to the Song Dynasty in the future."

"We must kill him!"

"Wait a moment. Wait until both sides are seriously wounded, then act!"

"Besides, don't forget we have a chess piece down there."

"I believe the Bad People have their eyes on Guo Jia too."

If the Bad People manage to wipe out both parties, all the better.

If not, they could follow up with their attack and catch the exhausted by surprise.

None of them would escape.

Unless, Guo Jia was hiding his true strength and pretending to be weak!

"In any case, everyone stay ready!"

In Wei Liao's mind, he too understood that the threat from the Ming Dynasty far outweighed that of the Song Dynasty.

If he could kill even one, he would do it.

If it weren't for the fear that Guo Jia held a life-saving method bestowed by Ming Emperor Zhu Houzhao.

He would've already attacked with his God Demon Realm power and slaughtered them all on the spot.

Given how much Emperor Zhu Houzhao valued Guo Jia, it was impossible he didn't make preparations.

Wei Liao was very confident, but when it came to Zhu Houzhao, he dared not be careless.

He even believed that a bit of self-awareness was very necessary.

The full capabilities of a Great Perfection God Demon Realm being were beyond imagination.

Now, they would use Yuan Tiangang to test that power.

==========

"Mister Kongming, are we just watching from the shadows?"

"Are we not going to act?"

Zhuge Liang was also hiding in the shadows at this moment.

With the Advisor Skill from Heaven Dao Reward, although his strength wasn't as high as Wei Liao or Yuan Tiangang.

When it came to stealth, he far surpassed the two by a wide margin.

Just like now, neither Yuan Tiangang nor Wei Liao had detected his presence.

The one speaking was Qiao Feng, or rather, he should now be called Xiao Feng, who had followed Zhuge Liang to the Song Dynasty.

Of course.

Duan Yu and Xu Zhu were also with them.

Especially Duan Yu, who had been in a daze recently.

He had already learned that the Great Li Kingdom had been destroyed by the Song Dynasty.

Even though he was no longer the Prince of Great Li Kingdom, he still felt a trace of unwillingness and hatred.

It was directed toward the Song Dynasty.

In the past, he had protected the beauty and virtue of the Song Dynasty in many ways.

But now, he realized that the Song Dynasty was no different from other brutal dynasties and kingdoms.

They were still vicious and bloodthirsty killers.

The last bit of affection he held for the Song Dynasty in his heart had vanished completely.
