Luo Hongzheng was surprised, and Xia Keming also nodded and said, "That's right, your Luo family, as a super family of the Loki Empire, can't dare someone to grab the treasure for no reason." And whether it is in terms of numbers or strength, it seems that only the Holy Sect can send so many people at once. ”

Luo Hong then understood, and couldn't help nodding and saying, "It seems that this is really the case." Hmph, Holy Sect, I, Luo Hong, will definitely turn you upside down!"

Xiao Rui grabbed her and asked, "Where are you going?"

Luo Hong's eyes turned red and said, "I'm going to the temple and kill all those villains!"

Xiao Rui shook his head and said, "Sister Luo Hong, you'd better calm down now." That Wang Yi also said just now, the people in the temple have already left, who can you find when you go? Besides, he also said that they were all banned and manipulated to do those things. ”

"I know you are vengeful, but should we also be unjust, vengeful and debtor-owned? What we're looking for now should be the culprit who controls all of this, the Holy Emperor. If it weren't for him, there would have been no such calamity. ”

Xia Keming also said: "Yes, just like my third brother's hand was cut off by his master, but in the final analysis, it was the father and son of the Ma family who made the forging furnace who harmed him." If you want to take revenge now, you should find the Holy Emperor, and only by killing him can you truly avenge your parents. ”

Luo Hong gradually calmed down, nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll find a way to find the Holy Emperor, kill him with my own hands, and avenge my parents!"

Xiao Rui and Xia Keming both nodded, but Xia Keming said again: "Then where should we go next?" That Song Defei is estimated to be no longer in the temple at this time, and besides, we don't seem to need to look for him now!"

Xiao Rui nodded and said, "Yes, we originally wanted to find the murderer of Luo Hong's sister's parents through that Song Defei, but now that we know who did it, we don't need to look for him anymore." And even we know the whereabouts of the people from the Wang family, so it's useless for us to stay here. ”

Speaking of this, his gaze looked at Luo Hong: "If you want to find the Holy Emperor, you have to go to the front line." That Holy Emperor launched such a large-scale war, I don't think it was possible for him not to sit down. ”

Luo Hong's big eyes looked at Xiao Rui without blinking: "Brother Xiao, I listen to you, you can do what you say!"

Xiao Rui smiled slightly, Xia Keming pinched his throat with his hand on the side and said softly: "Brother Xiao, I also listen to you, do whatever you tell you to do!"

Luo Hong's eyes widened, and he kicked Xia Keming's calf, Xia Keming dodged, dodged this kick, and then quickly ran towards the city. Luo Hong scolded behind him and chased after him. Xiao Rui looked at the two of them and shook his head with a smile, and followed.

The three of them laughed and returned to the hut in the civilian area and took a brief rest. He didn't alarm the owner of the house, and left there early the next morning, bought some things in the market, ate early, and left the city to head for the Holy Heavenly Empire.

When they came, the three of them followed Song Defei to come, and there were many detours on the way, and most of them were mountain roads. Now when they walked back, the three of them had identified the direction, whether it was a big road or a small road, or even over the mountains and mountains, they just headed towards the east. Because the Holy Heavenly Empire is just to the east of the Faro Empire, as long as you follow this direction, you will definitely be able to return to the Holy Heavenly Empire.

Sure enough, after they walked for more than ten days, they finally saw the border between the two countries again, but there were not a large number of troops stationed near the current border. On the side of the Faroe Empire, there were only a few barracks with a few hundred soldiers left behind.

The three of them easily bypassed the left-behind barracks on the side of the Faro Empire and came to the side of the Holy Heaven Empire. But after they came, they saw that on the side of the Holy Heaven Empire, there were not even a few barracks in the original building, and there was a mess everywhere. In the middle of the road, there were rows of neat footprints, and the direction of progress was the Holy Heaven Empire.

Seeing this scene, the three of them immediately understood that the army of the Faro Empire had completely entered the Holy Heaven Empire. Unexpectedly, when they left from the Holy Heavenly City, they heard the news that the army of the Holy Heaven Empire had driven the Lei Duran father and son to the Faro Empire. Unexpectedly, in just over a month, the Faro Empire had regained the initiative and invaded the territory of the Holy Heaven Empire.

However, Xiao Rui and the three of them also understood that with the strength of those saints they saw in the temple, it would definitely be effortless to break through a city. That's hundreds of grandmaster-level martial artists! Use them to attack the city, and there will definitely be no one to stop them.

Although there are quite a few cultivators in the major empires, there are very few cultivators in the military. Even if there were, they were all generals who led troops, but ordinary soldiers did not cultivate. Those cultivators were either children of sectarian families, or disciples of princes and nobles. Even if there are some casual cultivators, they are either secluded or travel through mountains and rivers, and rarely join the army.

When the two armies are fighting, if there are dozens of grandmaster-level warriors in one army, it will be terrible. Although ordinary soldiers are all physically strong, when they really encounter a martial artist, especially at the grandmaster level, it is like the gap between a child and an adult. When a group of children fight with an adult, no matter how large the number is, there is nothing they can do.

Seeing that the army of the Faro Empire had invaded the territory of the Holy Heaven Empire, Xiao Rui and the three of them were also anxious, especially Xiao Rui began to worry about his family in the Holy Heaven City. Although he knew that the war would not spread there so quickly, he was still worried about them.

Xia Keming and Luo Hong naturally saw Xiao Rui's anxiety, so they proposed to go back to Shengtian City first. One is to look at Xiao Rui's family and Xia Jinming, and the other is to learn more about the situation of the war through the royal family. With the three of them alone, they will definitely not be able to play any role in the war, so it is better to return to the Holy Heaven City first.

After the three of them discussed, they immediately began to rush towards the Holy Heaven City again.

This time they still drove back in a straight line, but still through several cities. The flag of the Faroese Empire has been planted in several cities relatively close to the border, and a large number of Faroese troops are still advancing inland. And on the way, they saw that refugees had already begun to move to the Central Plains.

Standing on the top of the mountain, the flow of people formed by a large number of refugees is like a long crooked snake, far from the end. Among these refugees were basically some old and weak, sick and disabled, women and children, and those strong men were captured by the army of the Faroe Empire to replenish the army, or to transport grain and grass, or to build cities.

And once these refugees are caught up by the troops of the Faroe Empire, they will be plundered and beaten again. The little valuables they carry with them will also be looted, and if they resist a little, they will be whipped and slashed with a knife.

Once Xiao Rui and the three of them encountered this situation on the road, they couldn't help but take action to drive the troops of the Nafaro Empire away. Although it was possible to kill some soldiers, after all, the number of three people was too small to take care of the whole picture. In order to hurry, I had to give up in the end.

With a depressed mood, the three of them hurriedly overtook the army of the Faro Empire and came to the territory controlled by the army of the Holy Heaven Empire. Here, too, you can see a large number of people migrating to the Central Plains. It's just that they don't have the army of the Faro Empire by their side, and there are still many strong men in the moving team, so the speed of migration is much faster.

Moreover, in each city here, there are a large number of troops stationed, many of whom are soldiers who have retreated from the front. Although it seemed to be quite a lot in terms of numbers, due to the fear of the defeated soldiers in front of the Faro Empire army, that feeling of depression unconsciously affected the garrison in the original city, and even the morale of the entire army was very low.

Seeing such a scene, Xiao Rui and the three of them had no choice. He was neither a general in the army, nor had he led troops into battle, so he didn't know how to deal with such a situation. Although I was anxious, I couldn't do anything.

He was getting closer and closer to the Holy Heavenly City, but Xiao Rui's mood was also becoming more and more depressed, because he couldn't see any hope for this war from the side of the Holy Heaven Empire. Although if the Holy Heaven Empire was really annexed by the Faro Empire, it would not have any impact on him personally. But the kind of love and adoration that a person has for his country in his heart makes it absolutely impossible for him to face this matter calmly. In Xiao Rui's heart, he couldn't accept the result of his country being invaded no matter what.

In particular, when he saw the miserable conditions of those refugees on the road and saw the flags of other countries planted on his own land, Xiao Rui felt extremely angry in his heart! Now his heart was already burning with raging anger, but he knew that it was impossible to stop this war with his own strength. It is necessary to use the power of the state to make it possible to drive the enemy out!

Holding back the anger in their hearts, Xiao Rui and the three returned to Shengtian City. After going home to visit his parents first, Xiao Rui went directly to the palace. For Xiao Rui to be in such a hurry to meet the emperor, Xiao Haiqing and his wife are also very supportive. They also know very well that if they become slaves of the country, it will be their lifelong shame and regret. So when they heard that Xiao Rui was going to meet the emperor to prepare for the war, the old couple told him very happily: "You must be a good man who stands up to the sky! For the sake of the Holy Heaven Empire, you must defeat the enemy!"

With the blessings and expectations of his parents, Xiao Rui met Duan Yuhai.

At this time, Duan Yuhai was much more haggard than more than a month ago, his eyes were red, and his face was tired. Seeing Xiao Rui, Duan Yuhai only showed a slight hint of joy.

But after Xiao Rui told him the news he knew, the old man who had been on the throne for a long time was also a little at a loss for a while. After all, the news that Xiao Rui brought back was too terrifying, that Holy Sect actually wanted to unify the entire Eastern Saint Continent!

Duan Yuhai shook his head, how many years have passed, no one has ever dared to say that he wants to unify the entire continent. But the news that came back from the empires of the continent during this time, as well as what Xiao Rui said just now, let Duan Yuhai know that this matter was true! There was really someone who was doing something to unify the entire Eastern Saint Continent!

Duan Yuhai calmed down for a while, and then stabilized his mind, after all, the throne for so many years was not done for nothing. He has also made an analysis of the current situation. If it was really as Xiao Rui said, there were hundreds of grandmaster-level martial artists in the Holy Sect participating in the war, then there would be no city in the Holy Heaven Empire that could be defended.

If it is to protect the Holy Heavenly City, it is only possible to stop the troops of the Faro Empire, that is, the army of the Holy Sect, only by withdrawing all the troops of the Holy Heaven Empire and forming the outermost defense line with all the warrior generals.

But if this is really done, then the hearts and minds of the entire Holy Heaven Empire will be lost. If an empire loses the hearts of the people, then it loses the meaning of its existence.

But if they don't do this, what kind of strength can they have to stop the attack of the Holy Sect? I am afraid that there are not a hundred grandmasters in his army, and these hundred grandmasters are still stationed in various places, not gathered in one city.

Even if it's in a city, so what? Can you really hold that city?

As the emperor of the largest empire on the continent, Duan Yuhai is now also in a dilemma!
