Chapter 225 Conquering the Canglan Kingdom

"The wheel of fate has actually merged with you..."

The ancient soul stared at Qin Jun and slowly spoke, his voice devoid of any emotion, chilling Qin Jun to the core.

"What wheel of fate? I have no idea..." Qin Jun gritted his teeth, just hearing the name made him realize it was a shocking treasure. Could it be that this guy wanted to kill and snatch treasures?

He felt helpless, not knowing what the wheel of fate was. He had many treasures on him, could it be that one of them was truly named the wheel of fate?

"I also don't know what the wheel of fate is... but I can sense the aura of the wheel of fate within you..." the ancient soul said in confusion.

Qin Jun was drenched in cold sweat, not knowing how to respond. This guy was definitely a lunatic, and probably suffering from amnesia!

At the same time, he cursed in his heart, wondering who released the ancient soul.

Unfortunately, that person had already died a miserable death at the hands of the ancient soul.

"Release my prince, or I won't let you off!" Hong Hai-er angrily demanded, feeling ashamed and furious. If he hadn't been distracted by the ancient soul, how could he have let Qin Jun fall into the hands of the ancient soul?

But his regret was of no use.

The display of strength by the ancient soul made them shudder. If it wanted to kill Qin Jun, it would be effortless, especially since it was so close to Qin Jun. Once Hong Hai-er and the others made a move, Qin Jun would most likely be crushed by the ancient soul.

Sensing that the ancient soul seemed to be reminiscing, Qin Jun became extremely nervous, quickly signaling Hong Hai-er and the others to act.

If they didn't act soon, and the ancient soul went berserk, he would undoubtedly be doomed.

Unfortunately, Hong Hai-er and the others thought he was telling them not to act. Normally, when their lord was held captive, they would refrain from acting, but Qin Jun was a different case, always seeking victory in danger.

"Damn! Why is there no coordination..." Qin Jun's mind exploded with frustration, almost on the verge of collapse. He couldn't help but think of his previous life when playing a certain tower defense game, feeling irritable when there was no coordination among teammates...

At this moment, the ancient soul looked at him again, making his scalp tingle.

"Although I don't know what the wheel of fate is... I feel that this thing is related to me... I wish you good luck..." the ancient soul said with a hint of melancholy, then disappeared without a trace.

Hong Hai-er and the others quickly flew over, surrounding Qin Jun, guarding against another attack by the ancient soul.

Did it just leave like that?

Qin Jun's mind was a bit slow to process, feeling both amused and frustrated, inexplicably feeling like he had been played.

"Has it left?" Sha Wujing hesitantly asked, subconsciously looking at Hong Hai-er, as he couldn't sense the aura of the ancient soul, relying on the stronger Hong Hai-er.

Hong Hai-er frowned, "I can't sense it either, maybe it really left."

The previous demeanor of the ancient soul seemed as if it wanted to destroy everything, and it was awakened by the people of the Canglan Kingdom. Its sudden departure left them puzzled about the reasons behind it.

Qin Jun also couldn't understand. Since the ancient soul spared him, he didn't bother thinking about it further. The farther away this lunatic was from him, the better.

He had thought that with the assistance of Hong Hai-er, who was at the eighth level of the True Immortal Realm, he could dominate, but it seemed that he had underestimated this world.

Even a small kingdom like the Canglan Kingdom harbored such an ancient demon god. In the future, he must be more cautious and not underestimate any kingdom.

Afterward, Qin Jun looked at the struggling Canglan Emperor in the ruins, his face darkening. He took out the Silver Dragon Soul-Slaying Spear and flew toward the Canglan Emperor. As for the other ministers of the Canglan Kingdom, either they had already been crushed to death or were still buried in the ruins. Of course, there were also some who had escaped, but Qin Jun couldn't be bothered to chase after them.

Thud!

Qin Jun landed in front of the Canglan Emperor, startling him as he looked up in fear, pleading, "Qin Jun... please spare me... I'll give you everything... as long as you spare me... I'll give you my kingdom... I'll give you all the beauties in my harem... please spare my life..."

So cowardly!

Qin Jun felt disdain for him. He hadn't expected the Canglan Emperor to be so despicable.

But this was his first time encountering the Canglan Emperor; he had only heard his name before.

"I'll give the Canglan Kingdom to you... I'll give all my beauties to you... please spare my life..." The Canglan Emperor begged pitifully. Hearing this, Qin Jun felt a chill. You want to give me your castoffs?

I'm disgusted!

Qin Jun didn't want to listen to him any longer. In the struggle between kings, the defeated should die with dignity!

Thud!

Qin Jun thrust the spear into the Canglan Emperor's back, piercing his internal organs. The power of the palm thunder surged through the spear, instantly shocking him to death, without any pain.

"Ding! You have killed the Canglan Kingdom Emperor Zhu Kui, gaining 998 experience points. Main quest—'Slay the Emperor'—progress: 2% complete!"

The system prompt sounded in his mind, but it didn't stir any emotions in him. This amount of experience was far from enough for him to level up, and the completion of the quest had just begun.

With this, the Canglan Kingdom fell into his hands.

The Emperor had passed away, and most of the ministers were dead. The remaining half of the Canglan Kingdom's territory was only a matter of time.

"Your Highness... I have failed..." Li Yuanba, covered in blood, flew in from the sky, his face full of shame, unable to look Qin Jun in the eye.

Qin Jun waved his hand and smiled, "The past is in the past, there's no need to dwell on it. It's the effort towards the future that matters."

He naturally wouldn't blame Li Yuanba and the others. It wasn't that his subordinates were incompetent, but that the ancient soul was too powerful.

"Someday, I will reclaim our territory!" Qin Jun murmured as he looked at the sky. Today was the first time he had been unable to handle even his subordinates. In the past, he had always been crushing everything, but for the first time, there appeared a super powerful being that they couldn't handle.

The news of the conquest of the Canglan capital by the Qin ruler spread throughout the entire Canglan kingdom in a very short time.

The whole country was in an uproar, with countless people wailing in grief.

In the following days, the Qin ruler did not immediately leave, but instead took care of the remaining affairs. The remaining half of the Canglan kingdom was also partially conquered by the iron cavalry of the Dragon Corps.

"How is the Kingdom of Qianyue doing?"

Inside a temporary palace, the Qin ruler asked Jia Xun, who was standing by, while browsing through the documents and jade slips of the Canglan kingdom.

The Canglan kingdom was a sovereign state, so the Qin ruler naturally could not be as hasty as dealing with a city. He had to personally take control of the political power as quickly as possible, as the Canglan emperor had died. Then, he had to return to the Kingdom of Qianyue.

Although the Kingdom of Qianyue was in turmoil, the Qin ruler believed that with General Guan Yu there, it would not suffer the fate of being destroyed.

"The situation is quite critical. The Black Dragon Kingdom to the east and the Wuqi Kingdom to the west have joined forces to attack the Kingdom of Qianyue. General Guan Yu and General Nan Meng each hold one side, but the enemy is too strong, and they have been in a continuous state of retreat, abandoning cities one after another," Jia Xun said in a deep voice, with a hint of urgency in his tone. Although the Qin ruler had conquered the Canglan kingdom, in his heart, the Kingdom of Qianyue was his true home, and he naturally could not bear to see it fall to enemy forces.

However, he also understood that the Qin ruler had to handle the main affairs of the Canglan kingdom before leaving, so he had not been urging him.

When the Qin ruler led the Dragon Corps into battle, even the powerful Black Dragon Kingdom would have to kneel!

Although the Black Dragon Kingdom could resist the joint forces of the Kingdom of Qianyue and the Canglan kingdom, it was ultimately only a kingdom-level power.
