“What… what does this mean? You… sent people to that valley?” Deon Richards struggled to speak again.
“Of course,” White Tiger glanced at the other side.
“You… you…” Deon Richards said a few words before a large amount of blood gushed out of his mouth.
“Are you angry?” White Tiger said again.
“So what if you stop the ‘Ghost Soldier’.” Deon Richards paused before continuing to speak.
“Do you think… I only have the ‘Ghost Soldier’ as an ace up my sleeve? If the plan went smoothly, the palace should have been taken over by now…”
“Have other soldiers from the Crimson Flame Empire also gone to the palace?” Mya Richards frowned.
“Hehe… go and see for yourself…” Deon Richards said with a fierce expression.
“You deserve to die!” Mya Richards took a deep breath and then turned to Billy, “Mr. Billy…”
As she was about to kneel down, Billy lifted her up with a gust of wind.
“Casey, you take Harleen and Ivy to see Opal!” Billy then turned to Casey and others to give instructions.
Although he knew that with Opal and Amber’s skills, even if they couldn’t stop all the ‘Ghost Soldiers’, they shouldn’t be in too much danger themselves.
However, he still felt a bit uneasy.
“Okay!” Casey and the others responded without hesitation, flying towards the north gate of the imperial city.
“Princess, Lord Brecken, we leave this to you!”
Billy then looked at Mya Richards and Brecken Richards and said before rushing towards the direction of the palace.
“Thank you, Mr. Billy, take care of yourself!” Mya Richards shouted loudly at Billy’s back.
After that, she was about to follow.
“Princess, you are injured, don’t go!” Hayley quickly walked over.
“No, I’m worried about my mother…” Mya Richards responded.
“Mya, Hayley is right, with your current condition, going there will only burden the empress.” Brecken Richards also spoke at the same time.
“You stay here to handle matters, I will go with Hayley!”
“But…” Mya Richards continued to speak.
“Princess, don’t worry, the empress’s cultivation can ensure her safety!” Hayley interrupted her, “You stay here to heal, I’ll go take a look!”
After speaking, she flew away.
Brecken Richards then gave some instructions before following closely behind her.
Rewind to a quarter of an hour ago, at the moment when the war in the institute was started.
At the entrance of the valley on the north side of the city, Opal and Amber concealed their breath among the scattered rocks.
“Opal, someone’s coming!” Amber said at this moment.
“Yeah,” Opal nodded slightly.
Just as the two finished speaking, a black-robed elder descended from the direction of the imperial city.
From his aura, it could be seen that he had reached the first-rank Sacred Realm.
“Should we stop him?” Amber asked.
“He should be here to release someone, let’s see first!” Opal replied.
Soon, the black-robed elder landed in the center of the valley.
Then, he frowned slightly, and a powerful spiritual power enveloped the valley.
Immediately, the elder quickly flashed to a rock wall on the right, raised his hand, and a violent gust of wind hit the rock wall.
A loud noise rang out, and the whole rock wall exploded, with debris flying everywhere.
At the same time, a cave over ten meters wide and long appeared in front of him.
“Come out!” The elder shouted loudly towards the direction of the cave.
Next moment, figures emerged from the cave.
In no time, the valley was filled with a large group of people, with a number of about four to five thousand.
All dressed in dark green armor, wearing masks.
With the appearance of these soldiers, the entire valley was shrouded in a suffocating cold aura, like a gust of wind from the depths of the earth.
Some birds and animals in the woods on both sides of the valley seemed to sense the crisis and hurriedly fled in all directions.
“It is indeed the Ghost Soldier!” Not far away, Amber spoke up.
“Deon Richards has really gone to great lengths to fight for the throne. It’s difficult to cultivate so many soldiers!”
“People are insatiable.” Opal nodded.
They also discovered that the cultivation of these soldiers was quite strong.
Among the elite forces, there was a third-rank Sacred Realm, three second-rank Sacred Realms, five first-rank Sacred Realms, and about ten half-step Sacred Realms.
In addition, there were dozens of individuals in the mid-late stage of the Divine Realm.
Among these five thousand people, at least close to a thousand had attained the Saint realm or higher.
The Ice Cloud Empire truly hid powerful forces. If Deon Richards did not have the intention to usurp the throne, this daring team would be extremely formidable for the Ice Cloud Imperial Family.
Just with these people alone, they would likely be able to contend with the Rainbow Moon Imperial Family!
The disparity between the four empires was evident!
Opal and the others couldn’t help but think about the Crimson Flame Empire, which was surely even more formidable!
“Our target today is the palace, to capture the empress alive. Anyone who resists, kill them!” At this moment, the black-robed elder looked at the five thousand people and shouted loudly.
“Kill!” The five thousand people shouted in unison, their voices piercing the sky.
“Move out!” The black-robed elder raised his hand and gave the command.
At that moment, a sword aura accompanied by the force of thunder shot over from the side, carrying a piercing wind, tearing the void apart.
Sensing the impending danger, the black-robed elder’s pupils constricted, his body pores opening up.
Before he could finish speaking, the sword aura pierced through his heart.
“Who…” After uttering the last word, the black-robed elder’s eyes widened, and he fell straight down, blood gushing from his chest.
“Kill!” Seeing this scene, the third-rank Sacred Realm elder roared, rushing towards Opal and the others.
“Kill!” The following five thousand people also shouted.
With everyone’s activation, a strong aura rose into the sky, the pressure in the valley rapidly increasing.
Some birds and animals in the woods on both sides of the valley that hadn’t fled far burst and died instantly.
“Amber, I’ll take care of the Sacred Realm experts, you deal with the others!” Opal’s voice sounded at the same time.
“Got it!” Amber responded loudly.
Knowing Opal could fight a fifth-rank Sacred Realm with her full strength, Amber was naturally unafraid.
As the two of them spoke, Opal’s wrist flicked, and a sword aura shot out, piercing through the throat of a first-rank Divine Realm cultivator.
The man gasped for breath, blood gushing from the wound, twitching a few times on the ground before falling silent.
