"Your Majesty, the fifth line of defense has failed …"
"I'm not blind. I don't need your nonsense!"
Gerblay didn't hold back on what he had just said.
In an instant, the entire crowd fell silent. No one dared to say anything.
They could only wait for death to come.
The Magical Beast army was at the bottom of the last wall. Zhang Xing slowly descended from the sky.
He looked calmly at the majestic palace at the top of the mountain.
"Gebre, I'll give you one last chance. Abdicate and commit suicide!"
As soon as Zhang Xing spoke, the hundreds of millions of Magical Beasts immediately stopped roaring. The entire sky became so silent that one could hear a pin drop.
Gebre's eyes were bloodshot. He was the emperor of an empire, but he had been forced into a corner by a commoner.
This was a great humiliation, an unforgivable mistake. He had let down his ancestors!
He had ruined the empire of his ancestors because of greed.
Actually, he was aware of his own mistakes. However, he was the first emperor of a third-rate country. How could he admit to his mistakes?
If there was a way out, he could pretend to push all the blame to Wendelun or Sparke. He could then compensate a large amount of wealth and continue to be the emperor.
However, Zhang Xing, who did not play by the rules, did not give him a way out.
He had shocked the world the moment he appeared. He had led an army of Magical Beasts all the way to the palace. Originally, he had only wanted him to abdicate. Now, there was an additional condition of committing suicide!
This was even more intolerable. Who would be willing to commit suicide?
"Don't even think about it!"
Gebre's lips trembled for a long time before he spat out the words with difficulty.
"Haha …" Zhang Xing laughed.
"Are you still so stubborn?"
"The little power you have is not even worth a single blow. Stubbornly resisting to the end will only result in total annihilation."
"The heavens are virtuous. I don't want to kill too many people. However, since you insist on dying, I can only fulfill your wish. And all the members of the imperial family, the nine generations!"
Killing intent filled the air!
Everyone's heart skipped a beat. This was the cruelest punishment on the Holy Dragon Continent. Only the emperor had the right to carry it out.
Zhang Xing was not the Emperor, but he had the power to kill everyone in Fort Coden, let alone the Emperor's entire family.
Gebrey swallowed a mouthful of saliva. His face was pale as he clenched and unclenched his fists. Then, he clenched them tightly …
Zhang Xing looked at the constantly changing expressions on his face and knew that the Emperor was fighting in his heart.
A moment later, Gebre finally let go of his hands and slumped weakly on the dragon throne.
"Zhang Xing, you win!"
Whoosh!
All the officials and generals who had been tense all this time breathed a sigh of relief.
At the last critical moment, His Majesty finally made the most correct choice.
…
Three days later, Zhang Xing plundered several treasure vaults in the palace, then left the Niucor Empire under the escort of Duke Wendelun and all the other officials and generals.
Under the leadership of the Snow Ape and the Giant Bear, the magical beasts returned to their respective territories.
Emperor Gebrey committed suicide on the same day and passed the throne to his eldest son.
This matter was not over yet. Zhang Xing also mentioned the so-called construction assistance between friendly nations, promoting cooperation, trade, and other important matters.
He asked Duke Wendelun to personally lead a team to Wanwu City to discuss this with Emperor Peters.
Zhang Xing also said that this was a matter of the nation and had nothing to do with him, a small governor, so he would not participate.
He then opened the portal list and clicked on Redbud City, instantly returning to his own territory.
