Chapter 455: Chapter 452: Crisis of the Great Qin Empire!

At this moment, in the sky, only a group of Extraordinary remained.

Although they were very angry about Black Snake Island’s despicable actions, the departure of the Eight-headed Great Serpent indeed brought a sigh of relief to everyone.

They exchanged glances, with varying emotions.

"This matter is beyond our ability to handle! We must report it to the Imperial Capital, and let the Imperial Capital make the decision!"

The leading Extraordinary, with a gloomy expression, addressed the crowd.

Originally, they thought Black Snake Island intended to bring chaos to the Great Qin Empire by luring the Eight-headed Great Serpent, but unexpectedly, the opponent aimed for the Great Qin Empire to submit, truly a sinister intention!

"Indeed, though the Eight-headed Great Serpent is terrifying, Willow God is not to be trifled with either. The opponent thinks they can suppress our Great Qin Empire, yet they have completely overestimated themselves."

Someone echoed.

Upon hearing this, the others nodded in agreement.

This matter is of great importance, beyond the decision-making capacity of them, these fifth-tier Extraordinaries.

Subsequently, the leading Extraordinary led the group back to Lijiang City, taking on the responsibility of reporting upwards, while others assisted in the evacuation of the Great Qin Empire citizens from Linhai City.

After all, the Great Qin Empire would never submit, so a great battle a day later was inevitable.

If the Great Qin Empire residents of Linhai City did not hurry to evacuate, they would inevitably be caught in the crossfire of the upcoming battle.

Especially concerning such terrifying beings as Willow God and the Eight-headed Great Serpent, once they engaged, a city could be obliterated in an instant.

However, due to the sheer magnitude of the commotion, the news of Black Snake Island guiding the Eight-headed Great Serpent’s invasion of Linhai City couldn’t be contained and quickly spread across the internet.

The Great Qin Empire originally disliked the Black Snakes, and now, seeing what they intended to do, the populace was instantly in an uproar.

In no time, the issue climbed the trending list and swiftly reached number one, with discussions on the topic sprawling across every corner of the internet.

[The damned Black Snakes dare to guide the Eight-headed Great Serpent to invade our Great Qin Empire, they must be courting death!]

[Truly living up to Black Snake Island, only a beastly place like that could commit such beastly acts. I wish I could drop a hundred nukes over there and make them peaceful in an instant!]

[Does a mere Black Snake Island want to invade our Great Qin Empire? It’s simply shortsighted; no matter how strong the Eight-headed Great Serpent is, can it be stronger than Willow God?

In front of Willow God, the Eight-headed Great Serpent is nothing but a paper tiger, not worth mentioning!]

[That Black Snake Island is truly disgusting, unable to compete with us, they resort to such means to disgust us!

I really want to retaliate in kind, draw the Black Demon Tiger to Black Snake Island, and let them know what they’re dealing with!]

[We must teach them a lesson...~]

[...]

As the online furor raged, the Imperial Capital also received the message sent from Linhai City.

Bang!

"Humph! Submit? Such audacity, even when those Ancient Sects were around, they didn’t dare to speak of making our Great Qin Empire submit. Now, a mere Black Snake Island, a mere beast, dares to talk so brazenly!"

In the office, Dean Lin slammed the table, face flushed with anger, and shouted fiercely.

For a mere Black Snake Island to treat their Great Qin Empire with such disdain was infuriating.

"Dean, they said they would only give us one day to consider. If there is no response from the Great Qin Empire after one day, the Eight-headed Great Serpent will act!"

Assistant Zhang wore a chilly expression, infuriated by Black Snake Island’s actions, but he did not forget his duty and quickly reminded Dean Lin.

"Act? A mere Eight-headed Great Serpent, how strong can it really be? Even if it’s at the eighth tier, Willow God can handle it!"

Dean Lin shook his head, his tone full of disdain for the Eight-headed Great Serpent.

If the Eight-headed Great Serpent were an entity comparable to the Thunder Tiger King, he might be worried, but now it’s just rumored to be eighth-tier at most.

This Eight-headed Great Serpent had just gotten used to showing off on Black Snake Island, thinking it was invincible and acting so arrogantly. It must not have heard of the Thunder Tiger King’s renown, or it would never have dared to say such words to make the entire Great Qin Empire submit.

"But... Dean, didn’t Willow God previously mention that she was severely injured while supporting at Tiger King Ridge, and it has only been a few days now..."

Assistant Zhang hesitantly said.

Upon hearing this, Dean Lin suddenly realized, his brows furrowed.

He almost forgot that Willow God was still injured and might not be able to act.

"Let’s go, come with me to see Willow God!"

Immediately, Dean Lin quickly walked out.

The Eight-headed Great Serpent might be of eighth tier, and currently, apart from Willow God, no one in the Great Qin Empire’s officialdom could possibly contend against it.

If Willow God couldn’t act, they might need to rely on Willow God to use her connections to contact Tiger King Ridge and see if they would be willing to assist the Great Qin Empire.

Soon, Dean Lin, accompanied by Assistant Zhang, arrived at the secluded courtyard in the East District.

"Willow God!"

Looking at the Willow God body, missing branches and leaves in the courtyard, Dean Lin felt concern, respectfully saluting and greeting.

Assistant Zhang followed suit.

"Dean Lin, what brings you here? Is there something you need?"

Hearing the commotion, Willow God, who was operating a cultivation technique to absorb the Power of Earth Veins to heal her injuries, awoke, condensed her True Body Illusion, and looked towards Dean Lin not far away.

"Yes, in all fairness, Willow God, your injuries have not yet healed, I shouldn’t disturb you, but the situation is extremely urgent, and I am truly without option!"

Dean Lin said apologetically.

"Dean Lin, you need not be so, as the Guardian God of the Great Qin Empire, receiving the Empire’s fortune, enjoying the Power of Earth Veins, helping the Empire solve crisis is my duty.

Speak quickly, what exactly is the matter? Who is the enemy?"

Willow God shook her head, urging him to speak.

"Reporting to Willow God, it is Black Snake Island, the Black Snakes are truly vile, having guided the Eight-headed Great Serpent to the Great Qin Empire.

They only gave us one day, claiming if the Great Qin Empire does not submit, the Eight-headed Great Serpent will attack our Empire, devouring all Great Qin Empire people!"

"And according to intelligence, this Eight-headed Great Serpent might possess an eighth-tier cultivation, making it very difficult to deal with. As of now, only you, Willow God, have the power to suppress it."

Dean Lin nodded and meticulously recounted the situation, gritting his teeth at the Black Snakes’ conduct throughout.

Upon hearing this, Willow God’s brow furrowed slightly, realizing that the Eight-headed Great Serpent, if at eighth-tier cultivation, would indeed be hard to deal with.

Previously, slaying the Eight-headed Great Serpent would have been a trivial matter, but now, even though she remains at eighth-tier cultivation, she is gravely injured. Engaging in a fight might not only make it difficult to swiftly deal with the Eight-headed Great Serpent but might also damage her own origin due to the forced action.

"Dean Lin, given my current severe injuries, I’m afraid I cannot act against the Eight-headed Great Serpent."

Willow God shook her head slightly, speaking slowly.
