Chapter 283: Chapter 283: Since You Can’t Resist, Then Just Accept It

Meanwhile, on the Extraterritorial Battlefield,

two factions faced off against each other.

One belonged to the Qilin Mercenary Corps; the other was the extraterritorial Blood Evil Mercenary Corps.

The Qilin Mercenary Corps stood in perfect formation, their banners snapping in the wind!

At their head, a man with curly hair stood tall and imposing.

He was the vice-commander of the Qilin Mercenary Corps, Fierce Tiger!

The Blood Evil Mercenary Corps, however, was in disarray, a complete mess.

A bald, burly man stood at their front, covered in blood.

The commander of the Blood Evil Mercenary Corps, Blood Evil!

Fierce Tiger pointed his long spear at Blood Evil and said coldly, "I’ll give you one hour to consider. Either surrender or be annihilated!"

Just then, Fierce Tiger’s phone rang urgently. He answered it, and a moment later, his voice boomed, "Fierce Tiger acknowledges the order! I will head to the Eastern Domain of Great Xia immediately!"

After hanging up, he looked at Blood Evil opposite him. "Give me your answer now. Surrender, or you will be annihilated within three minutes!"

Blood Evil looked at Fierce Tiger and burst out laughing. "Fierce Tiger, I admit your Qilin Mercenary Corps is strong, but you’re dreaming if you think you can wipe us out in three minutes. Even if I have to drag this out, I’ll drag you down with me right here!"

Fierce Tiger’s expression turned frigid. "Then I’ll let you witness the true power of the Qilin Mercenary Corps!"

With a wave of his hand, he roared, "Qilin Mercenary Corps, hear my command! Charge! No holding back!"

He then led the charge himself!

"KILL!" The members of the Qilin Mercenary Corps behind him followed Fierce Tiger, crashing into the Blood Evil Mercenary Corps like a tidal wave.

The Blood Evil Mercenary Corps couldn’t withstand the assault at all. They were pushed back again and again, leaving a trail of bodies in their wake.

Blood Evil roared, "Hold the line! Hold the line!"

But the words had barely left his mouth when Fierce Tiger appeared before him like a bolt of lightning, the tip of his long spear pressed directly against his throat.

Blood Evil glanced at his routed troops, and his face instantly turned deathly pale.

He looked at Fierce Tiger and shrieked, "Blood Evil is willing to surrender! I surrender!"

The moment he finished speaking, Fierce Tiger thrust his spear forward, piercing straight through Blood Evil’s throat.

Blood Evil’s expression froze.

Fierce Tiger stared at him and said coldly, "You missed your chance."

Blood Evil’s pupils dilated rapidly. His head tilted to the side as he died a violent death.

Fierce Tiger brandished his spear and roared, "Qilin Mercenary Corps, hear my command! Follow me to the extraterritorial airport immediately! We’re heading to the Eastern Domain of Great Xia at top speed!"

"Yes, sir!" Everyone followed Fierce Tiger, whistling away into the distance, leaving behind nothing but a field of corpses and the thick stench of blood.

...

「In an extraterritorial jungle!」

A burly, red-haired man was locked in a fierce battle with three old men.

This was another vice-commander of the Qilin Mercenary Corps, Furious Lion!

Furious Lion faced three opponents alone, yet his movements were measured and his techniques were flawless, showing no signs of disorder!

Just then, Furious Lion’s phone rang urgently. He quickly retreated, pulled out his phone, and after listening for a moment, he spoke with a firm, powerful voice:

"Furious Lion acknowledges the order. I will head to the Eastern Domain immediately."

He turned to leave, but the three old men flickered, surrounding Furious Lion in a triangular formation. They sneered at him and said,

"You want to leave? We don’t think so. Why don’t you just stay here forever!"

Furious Lion looked at the three old men and said coldly, "Get out of my way now, or die!"

"HAHA..." A gray-robed elder laughed boisterously at Furious Lion. "Furious Lion, you’re a Tier Nine Martial Emperor, and so are the three of us. You’re dreaming if you think you can kill all three of us by yourself. Today, I’ll show you who’s going to be leaving who behind!"

With a roar, he shouted, "Brothers, attack!"

The three of them lunged at Furious Lion like lightning.

Furious Lion gave a cold smile, retreated with lightning speed, and then abruptly raised his right palm. Instantly, the phantom image of a massive palm appeared in the air.

The gray-robed elder saw this and his face contorted in terror. "You... you’re a divine-level expert! You’ve been hiding your true strength all this time!"

He looked at the other two elders and shrieked, "Run!"

Stomping his feet, he retreated like a flash of lightning.

The other two elders also turned to flee in disarray. But Furious Lion looked at the three of them and spoke with chilling indifference, "Trying to leave? Too late!"

With that, he slammed his right palm down.

The massive palm in the sky descended with the force of wind and thunder, smashing down directly onto the three old men.

With a deafening BOOM, a massive crater several dozen feet wide was blasted into the ground!

Furious Lion’s body flickered and shot away like lightning, his cold words echoing behind him:

"If I hadn’t been using you as training dummies, you wouldn’t have lived this long!"

In the next moment, his body vanished without a trace.

...

Similar battles erupted one after another in other parts of the extraterritorial regions. Many mercenary corps were completely wiped out as large contingents of the Qilin Mercenary Corps rushed to airports and departed with great haste.

Many other extraterritorial mercenary corps received this news. The faces of their commanders changed drastically. ’The Qilin Mercenary Corps is making a major move. The heavens are about to change.’

...

Meanwhile,

「In the Princess’s Mansion in the Great Xia Imperial Capital!」

Long Xi’Er, already dressed in her magnificent phoenix coronet and wedding robes, sat there, looking indescribably beautiful.

Beside her, Caiyun looked at Long Xi’Er and said resentfully, "Your Highness, you’re a peerless beauty. Marrying that bastard is letting him off way too easily!"

Long Xi’Er’s pretty face turned as red as cloth. She turned to Caiyun and asked, "How long until the auspicious time?"

"Your Highness, there’s about fifteen minutes left," Caiyun reported after checking the time. Pouting, she added, "By now, that bastard Ye Feng should have come to pick you up. Why haven’t we heard anything?"

The moment her words fell, a eunuch rushed in. He looked at the princess with a grave expression and announced, "Your Highness, the Prince Consort has urgent business and cannot make it. His Majesty has ordered me to relay his command: tonight’s wedding ceremony is canceled..."

Hearing this, Caiyun immediately started jumping up and down, shouting, "That damned bastard! How dare he stand up the princess! He deserves to die a thousand deaths..."

Long Xi’Er’s expression instantly darkened as well. But she quickly suppressed her anger, raised a hand to stop Caiyun, and asked the eunuch in a cold voice,

"What is the reason for his absence?"

The eunuch briefly explained what had happened. When Long Xi’Er heard it, her face changed dramatically. "What? Ye Feng went to the Eastern Domain to rescue someone all by himself? Isn’t he just looking for death? No, I must go see Father Emperor right now!"

As she prepared to stand, the eunuch quickly stopped her. "Your Highness, His Majesty has already made thorough arrangements. He said you should take care of yourself and wait peacefully for the Prince Consort’s return!"

Long Xi’Er froze, stunned. The next moment, her face turned as white as a sheet. She murmured,

"Ye Feng, you have to come back safely. You must!"

In the next instant, her eyes turned completely red. It was only then that she realized how important Ye Feng had become in her heart.

Just then, Xiao Yufei and the others arrived. Seeing Long Xi’Er, Xiao Yufei said with a smile, "Princess, it’s not like you’re marrying far away. What’s there to cry about?"

The princess was marrying Ye Feng, yet they, his other wives, had to attend. The thought alone was unsettling.

But there was nothing they could do; none of them could stop it. They had now resigned themselves to this reality.

Life is like rape; if you can’t fight it, you might as well lie back and enjoy it.

At that moment, Nangong Xue said with a smile, "Princess, you should hurry and get ready. Ye Feng should be here to pick you up any minute now!"

But the princess’s next words made everyone freeze on the spot.
