Eternal life begins with saving my clan

Listening to this, a solemn expression appeared on both General Shi and his daughter Meiling.

It was now they realized how dire the situation of the empire was.

As for Su Yen, he didn\'t have any expression on his face. Everything he heard from them both was under his prediction.

He took another sip from his tea and said slowly, "What do you think about changing it?" He asked calmly.

Changing it?! The three looked at each other and widened their eyes. They couldn\'t believe their ears.

"Your Honor, what do you mean by changing it?" The Prefecture Lord asked with a trembling voice.

"That is what I mean. Change the situation of the empire?"

General Shi forcefully swallowed the hard lumps in his throat and asked,

"Y-Your Honor… You mean to take over the empire?" His lips and voice were shaking in shock.

"Yes," Su Yen nodded his head.

His calmness was so provoking that the two wanted nothing but to give him the beating of his life.

He was talking about overthrowing the current imperial family as if he was talking about some common topic.

What type of person was this?

Where did he get his confidence? The more they thought about it, the more they found it unbelievable.

This was the most absurd news they had heard for the past few years.

They wanted to call it a bluff, but watching his calmness and the kind of power that belonged to Su Yen, they knew he wouldn\'t joke with such an important matter.

Placing his tea cup on the table, he straightened his back and said, "I told you not because I need your help, but because I found you worthy."

"You, the Prefecture Lord, knew when to step back and surrender and when to be unyielding. Your decision to stand and defend your land shows what type of a man you are."

"As for General Shi, you\'re too weak to be considered an infantryman in the Barren Land army. Your merit comes from your vast experience of war and your loyalty."

"As for her, her filial action toward you made her worthy of staying in my presence."

Hearing his harsh brutal truth about them, the expressions on their faces changed. Their faces were ridiculed in unsightly smiles.

General couldn\'t imagine he was so weak in the presence of Su Yen that he didn\'t worth to be in the infantry of the renewed Barren Land Soldier.

\'Is the Barren Land Army that awesome?\' He couldn\'t help but think.

He was furious with such comparisons but didn\'t let it get into his head.

As for the Prefecture Lord, he didn\'t think too much of it. He had experienced how powerful Su Yen was the first time.

Therefore, he wasn\'t bothered by harsh words. Moreover, the battle that happened in Baiyun city was known to him.

How a mere Foundation Building realm expert fought head to head with Golden Core Expert?

The insane battle changed his perception of those from the Celestial Heavenly Sect.

As for Meiling, she was surprised. She only saw a little about his power and therefore believed him.

"So, are you going to join me or stay by the side?" He asked.

Thud!

"Your Majesty," the Prefecture Lord fell on his bowed.

Watching this, the father and daughter duo looked at each other before they followed after.

"Your Majesty."

Looking at the three with their heads bowed, Su Yen wasn\'t happy or sad. To him, it was nothing.

"Arise," he commanded.

Back to their seats, their gaze toward him had changed. Since they changed their allegiance, they could only pray they made the right bet.

"General Shi, your men must be ready tomorrow. The Celestial Army is moving by tomorrow."

What!

A gasp of shock escaped from their mouths.

Everyone thought the army would start moving by next week, and now, they found out it would be tomorrow.

"What do you expect?" Su Yen chuckled. "Do you think I will allow them to have a battle on our soil?"

"Prefecture Lord, I want every border to be secure. Anyone without authorization must not be allowed to enter."

"This war will be a long one. You must be prepared," he added.

"How long, Your Majesty?" Meiling asked.

"How long do you think it will take us to have the whole state under our command?"

Huh!

The three could only let out a deep breath.

They were already numb with how unreasonable Su Yen was.

Who in his right senses would dare think of taking a whole state in one clean sweep?

Only he would dare to think of such a thing.

"You can leave," he commanded.

"Yes, Your Majesty," they responded with a deep bow.

Just as Meiling wanted to follow after her father, she heard Su Yen\'s voice.

"You can wait behind."

General Shi halted in her steps but continued without uttering a word.

With the two of them in the courtyard, Meiling now filled with curiosity.

Previously, because she was with her father and the Prefecture Lord, she didn\'t dare harbor the thought of Su Yen being the young man she met at the border of the prefecture.

"Do you know me?" Su Yen asked.

"Yes — No," she responded.

Listening to her conflicted response, a light chuckle escaped from his mouth.

"Take your seat," he said, and the mist covering his face disappeared.

Just as she prepared to take her seat, she saw Su Yen\'s face, and her jaw dropped to the ground. For a couple of seconds, she failed to breathe.

Looking at his extremely beautiful face, she was breathless. Never in her life did she expect a man would be this handsome.

His unblemished skin, glistening with an otherworldly aura, she was thrown into a whirlpool of stupor.

How could a man be this handsome?

"Are you a god?"
