Chapter 63: Wings Clan!

For a time, Martial Saints did not seem to be that rare. Any country had many Martial Saints.

Among the powerhouses who suddenly appeared, the Wings Clan, who originally lived in the forest to worship the Moon God, had the most Martial Saints.

Before the Blood Moon appeared, the Wings Clan only lived in the forest. Because they were remote and difficult to find, they were not valued.

It was only a vassal of the Northern Kingdom. Every year, it would pay tribute to the Northern Kingdom. However, three months after the Blood Moon appeared, the Wings Clan began to annex the surrounding Qiang and Li Clans.

In less than half a year, they had annexed the Qiang and Li clans. When the Northern Kingdom received the help of the two clan leaders, only a few dozen people from the two clans had escaped. After seeing Great Empress Zhaoyang, they held a blood letter in their hands and begged Zhaoyang to avenge them and reclaim the place they used to live!

The Qiang, Li, and Wings Clans were all vassals of the Northern Kingdom. These clans used to pay tribute to the Northern Kingdom every year. When the Northern Kingdom had an expedition, they would also send people to help.

There were actually many such vassals in the Northern Kingdom. At this moment, these vassal countries were looking at the newly appointed Great Empress Zhaoyang.

In their eyes, it would be very difficult to obtain the loyalty and protection of these vassals in the future if Zhaoyang allowed the Wings Clan to be tyrannical, snatching the territory of other races at will and killing their clansmen.

If the Northern Kingdom did not stand up for them, these vassals would change sides at any time and submit to other countries. Although their ethnicity was small and the place they occupied was not big, it would be very troublesome if they really caused a ruckus. In serious cases, it would affect the entire regime of the Northern Kingdom and cause internal strife!

Zhaoyang, who had only been on the throne for a few years, naturally understood this principle.

This matter was already very obvious. It was the Wings Clan’s fault. They had violated the rules set by the Northern Kingdom. The rules state that the various vassals should coexist peacefully. No one could snatch territory and kill the commoners.

The Wings Clan had violated the agreement, which was equivalent to challenging the prestige of the Northern Kingdom. Great Empress Zhaoyang already had several Martial Saints on her side, so she immediately issued an imperial decree to attack the Wings Clan as a warning to others!

The imperial decree was issued. Princess Zhaoyang asked the General of the Wilderness Base, Qin Feng, who was also a new Martial Saint, to wipe out the Wings Clan and bring back the leader of the Wings Clan to confess.

Who knew that Qin Feng would be defeated after going to the Wings Clan? Even Qin Feng’s whereabouts were unknown.

In this internal war between the Northern Kingdom and the Wings Clan, the Northern Kingdom was defeated.

Zhaoyang was anxious. This time, she directly sent out her uncle and the Old Ancestor of the aristocratic family. They also brought a hundred thousand soldiers and tens of thousands of martial artists to attack the Wings Clan.

However, she did not expect that the Old Ancestor of the aristocratic family would be killed this time. Her uncle was severely injured and fled back to the Northern Kingdom. This was nothing. What was even more detestable was that the Patriarch of the Wings Clan had sent someone to deliver a letter of challenge.

At this moment, they wanted to establish themselves as a country and become the Wings Nation. They wanted the Northern Kingdom to become their vassal. They also wanted the Northern Kingdom to pay ten million taels of gold and silver every year, along with a thousand carriages of various treasures and ten thousand peerless beauties!

He even suggested that Great Empress Zhaoyang marry the Patriarch of the Wings Clan as a concubine because the Patriarch of the Wings Clan already had a wife.

As soon as this condition was raised, the entire Northern Kingdom exploded.

This was too much. Although the Wings Clan, which originally had less than 100,000 people, had annexed the Qiang and Li Clans, their total population was less than a million. A vassal of the Northern Kingdom actually dared to make such a request. This was too much.

However, the Wings Clan, who only had this few people, had injured a Martial Saint of the Northern Kingdom, made a Martial Saint disappear, and killed the other Martial Saint. Three of the four Martial Saints of the Northern Kingdom were gone!

Zhaoyang sat in the throne room without saying a word. She was not as agitated as those courtiers. As a monarch, although she was a woman, she was brave and resourceful.

“Don’t you find it strange? In the beginning, the Wings Clan had less than 100,000 people. They didn’t even have a Martial Saint. However, they had the strength to deal with our three Martial Saints. Isn’t that strange?

“The Wings Clan knows our strength, but we can’t figure out their strength. This is the most terrifying thing. The strength of a country doesn’t depend on how many people it has, but how many experts it has!

“Investigate. Investigate at all costs. Find out why the Wings Clan advanced so quickly in such a short period of time. How many experts do they have?”

Zhaoyang was concerned about the confidence of the Wings Clan. How many experts did they have? If one did not know their enemy, they would only be beaten up by the Wings Clan. How could they be angry and insulted then?

After leaving the throne room, Zhaoyang went to see her uncle. She even specially gave him a few pills and listened to her uncle’s opinion on the Wings Clan.

In the Prince’s residence, her uncle seemed to have aged twenty years. The wrinkles on his face were faintly visible. This injury had dealt him a huge blow. When he saw Great Empress Zhaoyang coming over personally, her uncle cupped his hands at her and sighed.

“It’s not that I’m trying to boost the morale of others and dampen the prestige of my own clan. If the Wings Clan’s Patriarch is willing to marry you as his wife, I think Your Majesty can consider it. Because I realized that the Wings Clan is too strong…

“They’re so powerful that you can’t even imagine it. They have such strength in such a short period of time. I’m afraid that the Northern Kingdom will be theirs sooner or later. There are more than ten Martial Saints in their clan, and they’re all at the second-grade Grotto-Heaven Realm or above. Any one of them can resist us…”

Her uncle’s heart ached as he said this.

Although he was unwilling to admit this fact, he really couldn’t. He had fought with those people before. He really couldn’t defeat them! He even had a feeling that if he wasn’t the Great Empress’s uncle, he might have been killed along with the old ancestor.

Then is there a chance of survival?

Moreover, he had observed that there were more than ten such experts in the Wings Clan. It was only a matter of time before such a powerful Wings Clan rose. Even if their Northern Kingdom had a few Martial Saints in the past, they were nothing compared to the Wings Clan!

If they wanted to invade their Northern Kingdom, they only needed to send one or two Martial Saints with second-grade Grotto-Heaven realms. They could not defeat them and could only surrender completely.

The difference in strength was too great. They did not have the confidence to fight at all.

“Sigh, when the Qiang and Li Clans were destroyed by the Wings Clan, we really shouldn’t have gotten involved. It’s difficult for us to get out now…” Uncle sighed, feeling extremely uncomfortable in his heart. Only he dared to say such disrespectful words.

It was precisely because of his words that Zhaoyang felt that the Northern Kingdom would have no choice but to ask her brother to help!

This was their only hope!
