Creating the Shura Palace in a Fantasy World

Chapter 70: Chapter 70 - War?



Imperial Palace of the Yushan Dynasty

"How dare the Zhenfang Dynasty refuse to hand over the murderer of my son?!"

"Not only that, but they also have the audacity to say they don't even know where that wretched Song Yang is!"

"Do they think my Yushan Dynasty is easy to intimidate?"

In the royal palace, Yu Qinghai sat on the throne with a furious expression, radiating intense killing intent, while numerous ministers knelt on the floor, trembling.

Thinking that his most promising son had been murdered in another dynasty's territory, Yu Qinghai couldn't contain his rage.

To make matters worse, after ordering them to hand over the murderer, namely Song Yang, his request was completely denied!

Not that this surprised him. He knew that the Zhenfang Dynasty would certainly not hand over the eighth prince.

In his mind, there were numerous excuses the Zhenfang Dynasty could use to claim that Song Yang was not guilty. However, he never imagined that this would be the response:

We don't know where the eighth prince is, so we cannot deliver him.

Upon seeing this message, the veins in Yu Qinghai's face began to bulge, as if they were about to burst.

Not only had they killed his son, but they also dared to make the Yushan Dynasty a laughingstock throughout the Eastern region.

After all, in his mind, it was impossible that the emperor of the Zhenfang Dynasty did not know where his own son was.

Similarly, the murder of his son surely couldn't have been Song Yang's idea. How could a mere prince act in such a manner without the emperor's authorization?

'What is your confidence, Song Tianyun?'

Yu Qinghai couldn't help but wonder why Song Tianyun would dare to sever relations between the two dynasties in such a drastic manner.

But now, with this message broadcasted throughout the Eastern region, he had no choice but to respond in kind. Otherwise, the world would think that the Yushan Dynasty is easy to intimidate.

"Since the Zhenfang Dynasty is unwilling to deliver the assassin, there is only one alternative... WAR!"

Hearing the emperor's commanding voice, the ministers in the palace could not help but tremble slightly, while one finally mustered the courage to speak:

"Your Majesty, you absolutely cannot!"

As soon as he spoke, he felt a murderous gaze that seemed to devour his soul, but he swallowed hard and continued in a lower voice:

"We cannot start the war now. After all, there are only five months left until the Eastern Region's Genius Competition."

Upon hearing the minister's words, Yu Qinghai reined in his anger slightly and began to ponder.

Although the competition for the younger generation occurs only once every 100 years, this alone would not be enough reason to cancel a war between the two dynasties.

The real reason is that, in the Eastern Region, there is an unwritten rule created by the two Sacred Lands: any conflict between first-class forces or conflicts that could affect many potential geniuses is prohibited as the Genius Competition approaches.

This is also why the Shura Palace was notified by the Black Turtle Sacred Land not to carry out assassinations before the Genius Competition.

This is also why Song Yang noticed there were fewer assassination missions as the competition approached, which led him to create chaos in the Eastern Region.

Although Yu Qinghai did not understand why these two Sacred Lands were concerned about geniuses who were not part of their forces, he did not dare to go against this rule.

Otherwise, after the Genius Competition, he would face the wrath of the two supreme forces of the Eastern Region!

"Although we cannot openly start a war, it does not prevent me from waging a secret war."

When all the ministers saw the emperor in silence, they thought he had reconsidered. However, upon hearing his words, their hearts trembled at the intense murderous intent emanating from His Majesty.

It seemed that a war would be inevitable!

"Report!"

"Report!"

As silence hung over the palace, a voice from outside abruptly broke the quiet. A guard quickly entered and knelt before the emperor.

After seeing Yu Qinghai's gesture to speak, the guard immediately began to report:

"News has just arrived: two 1-star Holy Kings have appeared in the Blood Demon Sect, in the territory of the Bihai Dynasty."

"And the entire royal family of the Bihai Dynasty has been completely massacred!"

Silence!

Upon hearing the report, all the ministers could not help but take a deep breath and began to whisper among themselves.

"One of the five dynasties has really fallen?"

"I never imagined that the Bihai Dynasty would fall..."

"Moreover, two new Holy Kings have emerged in the Eastern Region."

BAMM!

But suddenly, a slight crash echoed, and everyone turned their attention to the emperor, who had slammed his hand on the throne, clearly irritated by their chatter during the morning meeting.

After hearing the report, even Yu Qinghai could not help but frown.

Although he was somewhat surprised by the fall of the Bihai Dynasty, the first thing that crossed his mind was to send troops to try to occupy part of the territory and treasures.

However, upon hearing that two Holy Kings had appeared, he had to abandon these thoughts, at least for now.

After all, dealing with two Holy Kings, even if they were only 1-star, would require the Yushan Dynasty's ancestor to act personally.

Perhaps this is why the Blood Demon Sect directly revealed two Holy Kings.

They probably wanted to inform the Eastern Region that they would now occupy all the territory and treasures of the Bihai Dynasty, and would become the new eleventh first-class force in the Eastern Region.

Shura Palace

Meanwhile, in the Shura Palace, Song Yang, who had just returned to the palace, could not help but murmur: "System, show me my information panel."

Yes, what the Zhenfang Dynasty reported to the Yushan Dynasty was not a lie.

Since Song Yang had assassinated Yu Qinghai, he had indeed disappeared and was never seen again by anyone from the Zhenfang Dynasty, as he had returned to the Shura Palace.

Even the father of the original body, Song Tianyun, was furious upon learning that he had killed the third prince of the Yushan Dynasty and wanted to punish him, but despite his efforts, he could not find him even after going out personally!

This is the first time the emperor has personally gone out to find a prince.

It is evident that even after what Song Yang did, Song Tianyun still cares deeply about this son, who was called the greatest genius in the Eastern Region.
