The Peerless Emperor

Not only in Red Maple State, but actually the situation in Minghu State was almost identical.

Wei Guo and Qiu Country thought their actions were foolproof and unnoticed, yet they didn't realize that every move they made was under the surveillance of Lin Qian's Huaxia Empire.

Both countries are allies of the Qin Dynasty, and Lin Qian would never believe that they would refrain from acting. In reality, Lin Qian had already dispatched Reconnaissance Beasts and swift winds to monitor Wei Guo and Qiu Country's territories.

With dual layers of surveillance, Lin Qian was crystal clear about any and all movements.

Wei Guo and Qiu Country thought their army assembly and secret attack on the Carefree Sect and Blood Spirit Valley were undetectable, but Lin Qian had long since completed his deployment.

The elders stationed at the Carefree Sect and Blood Spirit Valley had been early to stand by, and the combination of War Beast Army's Silver Moon Giants and the Imperial Army's Qiang Yu in the dense forests spreading across Minghu State and Red Maple State was simply the strongest pairing.

The fully armed Silver Moon Giants were jungle wolves by nature, and within the forested lake regions, they were born jungle hunters.

As long as Wei Guo and Qiu Country's troops penetrated deep into the centers of the two states, Lin Qian was confident that not a single one of them would escape.

As for Qiang Yu, as long as they maintained the optimal shooting range, they would suppress from a distance high in the sky. Whether it was the swift winds lurking in the woods or the flying Reconnaissance Beasts in the sky, they all provided Qiang Yu with the most precise location information.

Once someone attempted to escape by air, Qiang Yu wouldn't hesitate to draw the string of his heavy bow and launch that arm-thick heavy arrow, sniping the enemy soldiers daring to take flight over long distances.

The soldiers below were being slaughtered. The generals from both countries, who were engaging in close combat with the elders of the Carefree Sect and Blood Spirit Valley in the air, were agitated to the brink of madness, unable to focus on the fight.

The elders of both the Carefree Sect and the Blood Spirit Valley were pleased with this development, accelerating their attack pace. They couldn't help but admire Lin Qian in their hearts.

To them, Lin Qian seemed almost godlike in his foresight, knowing clearly when Wei Guo and Qiu Country would attack, their numbers, and even the assistance sent to aid them was intimidating.

They had seen Silver Moon Giants before, giant wolf-like Soul Beasts, but it was the first time they had seen them clad in full Soul Device armor.

Especially when the leading Silver Moon Giant approached them, coldly inquiring about their identity to confirm they were indeed elders of the Carefree Sect and the Blood Spirit Valley, it made them wonder if they were dreaming.

A talking Soul Beast was something they had never seen before.

What truly shocked them was the combat prowess of the group of Silver Moon Giants and Qiang Yu. Witnessing the enemy army being unilaterally slaughtered made these stationed elders feel assured and excited as they attacked the Awakening Realm powerhouses of Wei Guo and Qiu Country.

In fact, they had long held a grudge against Wei Guo and Qiu Country. They received orders from their Sect Master and Valley Master to assist the Huaxia Empire in counterattacking the countries, not just defending.

Thinking of this, the members of the Carefree Sect and the Blood Spirit Valley boiled with excitement, their attacks became fiercer, their Soul Power fully erupted in a frenzy.

On the other hand, the Awakening Realm powerhouses of Wei Guo and Qiu Country were terrified, unable to grasp why the elders of the Carefree Sect and Blood Spirit Valley were suddenly so ferocious. Although they had the upper hand, their counterattacks were more ruthless and relentless than their own!

Meanwhile, on the battlefield in Shunshui State, Lin Qian led the Imperial Army into the midst of the Qin Dynasty's battle formation.

With the ferocious shields at the core, the Roaming Spear and Mighty Halberd provided support from the sides, spreading out in a ring, pushing back the surrounding Qin Army and throwing their encirclement into chaos.

As for those who led the charge, it was the advanced infantry types, Blood Warriors and Fury Warriors, along with the sword infantry's advanced types, the Soft Sword and Thunder Sword.

These four advanced types were the backbone of the frontal melee, closely following the ferocious shields, the Roaming Spear, and the Mighty Halberd, showing their ferocious side to the chaotic soldiers of the Qin Dynasty.

As for Qingyu and Qiang Yu in the rear, they were staunchly protected by the shield, offering support with their long-range assaults.

The Imperial Army fighting at the front didn't have to worry about being ambushed from behind, because with Qingyu and Qiang Yu present, the enemy would be instantly shot down the moment they approached.

As for the ground below the battlefield, Roaming Spear was responsible for finishing off the enemy, and Whirlwind took care of cleaning up the battlefield.

Why waste the possessions left on the bodies of the fallen soldiers? And the corpses of the dead also needed prompt attention especially those at the Nirvana and Life and Death Realms, which could take hundreds of years to decay.

However, the incendiary spheres from the Heavenly Art Department could efficiently incinerate the corpses, and the ashes would fertilize the soil well.

According to Lin Qian's thinking, after the Qin Army soldiers died in battle, the sins they had committed in the Qin Dynasty would be scattered like smoke and clouds. It wasn't fitting to leave their bodies exposed in the wild, better to cremate them and bury the ashes in the soil.

In doing so, they would be returning to their roots, enriching the land of their home for the planting of Spirit Wood and enhancing the concentration of Spiritual Energy, thus vastly improving the environment of their homeland.

In doing so, they could be said to have died a worthy death.

Bang!

Lin Qian sent the Marquis in front of him flying with a single sword strike and, after flicking the Thunder Night Sword in his hand, he rested it on his shoulder. He looked at the Marquis, who was covered in blood from burst wounds, and couldn't help but admire, "I really didn't expect this, you're quite the tough one to beat, eight cycles through Nirvana is no small feat."

"Are you mocking me?" The Marquis from the Qin Dynasty wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. Hearing Lin Qian's words and seeing the twelve layers of Soul Light on his opponent, he said with a twitching smile.

Lin Qian shook his head slightly and seriously told the Marquis before him, "I'm not mocking you, I truly think so."

The Marquis looked at Lin Qian with a grim face, but inside he felt utterly hopeless.

Originally, when the Imperial Army rushed into the center of the Qin Army, he thought the troops of the Huaxia Empire were foolish, sending themselves into an encirclement.

But everything that followed completely surpassed the Marquis's expectations.

Because he found that the Huaxia Empire's Imperial Army didn't rush into the midst of the Qin Army as an act of suicide, but to more effectively slaughter the Central Qin Regular Army and the regular forces from all sides.

That's right, slaughter.

A unified Soul Power, perfect synergy, overwhelming collective strength, and impeccably exquisite military Soul Devices.

From every aspect, the Qin Army was completely outperformed by the Huaxia Empire's Imperial Army.

In front of their opponents, the Qin Dynasty's forces had no capacity to fight back and were being mercilessly slaughtered.

"The Qin Dynasty is defeated," Lin Qian said lightly to the Marquis, who was somewhat out of his senses in front of him.

But upon hearing Lin Qian's words, the Marquis suddenly raised his head and roared at Lin Qian, "This is not the full strength of the Qin Army. Once Emperor Qin personally leads the Imperial Guards into battle, you will only face defeat."

"The Huaxia Empire has never lost, not in the past, the present, or the future, and this war is no exception," Lin Qian said, his eyes slightly narrowing, "Especially in this world, the Huaxia Empire cannot afford to lose!"

"Because its name is Huaxia!"
