Chapter 2091: Qianwang Tower Master Takes Action Personally
With the issuance of this order, everyone suddenly looked up. Is it going to be war?
However, at this moment, Qian Ta jumped out and said heavily, "Tower Master, if we fully mobilize, I’m afraid other forces will seize the opportunity to infiltrate. It would be fine if we could capture Overlord City at once, but if we cannot..."
If we cannot, it will become a prolonged battle, which would be troublesome for the Qianwang Holy Tower.
The Central Plains is not only home to one Overlord Commerce; powerful entities like Heavenly Dao Sacred Land are also eagerly watching for an opportunity.
"No, I’m not going to attack Overlord City immediately, nor is it possible to fully mobilize..."
"What I want is to deploy a troop around Overlord City to deter other forces from entering Overlord City to trade. I want to cut off their trading routes and seal off all paths to Overlord City."
"Then, issue a summon order..."
"I want to see how many forces will still feign civility with me."
"Meanwhile, as we besiege Overlord City, we must not allow them to have the opportunity to subdue other forces, and then force some forces to send troops first to test the true military strength of Overlord Commerce..."
"That is, to initially borrow troops to ignite the battle inside and outside of Overlord City."
Upon hearing these words, all the strong individuals of Qianwang immediately understood; it was to ensure Overlord Commerce had no time to catch a breath.
Deprived of trade, they would lose profits and money. Meanwhile, the people inside Overlord City would be in a panic...
"At the same time, we also need to deploy troops to first eliminate those forces resolutely opposing us."
"For example, the Sacred Canggu Peak in the Central Plains East."
"We have more under our umbrella than just Shiyu Commerce; we should let other subsidiary forces in the name of Qianyuan Holy Demon Hall... Of course, also in the name of Su Old Demon Remnants to extinguish these opposing forces."
"Only with enough deterrence can we make those wavering forces understand what fear is."
"To avoid being wiped out, they must follow the Qianwang Holy Tower and acknowledge us as their main force."
"Currently, although Su Old Demon’s remnants are nowhere to be found, it is clear they are trying to win over sects unhappy with our Qianwang Holy Tower, so we must eradicate these hidden threats without leaving a trace."
Pei Kuang’s voice was terrifying and carried an icy chill, causing the eyes of all the Qianwang powerhouses in the room to sparkle with insight.
This was almost like beginning the footsteps of world conquest.
Surrounding Overlord City would become a mirror for the Qianwang Holy Tower to reflect the attitudes of the various forces.
Those who comply will be made to besiege Overlord City, and those who refuse will be directly eliminated.
At first, of course, we must destroy the forces currently visibly opposing the Qianwang Holy Tower.
The Sacred Canggu Peak in the Central Plains East is a distinct target, and there are certainly more such forces spread throughout the Central Plains that Qianwang Holy Tower will use its affiliate forces to eradicate.
It’s about issuing a harsh warning to the world.
Initially, Pei Kuang did not intend to be so aggressive, but Overlord Commerce forced their hand.
The moral high ground wasn’t secured, and Demon Master Sikong’s divisions into two or three factions, the major failure of the envoy team a month ago, the auctioning of the Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map, and more all contributed to Pei Kuang’s current decision.
"Besides, I will also visit the Heavenly Dao Sacred Land to personally demand the Qianyuan Soldier Fragment."
Following that, Pei Kuang made another heavy decision.
Before everyone could react, Pei Kuang softly said again, "Also, there’s no need for me to personally go to Wunian Saint Sect, but we must obtain their Qianyuan Soldier Fragment. Yu Gong, you make the trip..."
Upon hearing this, Pei Yuguang nodded heavily, accepting the order.
He knew that his father intended to collect the remaining fragments of the Qianyuan Soldier Map, and it couldn’t yet be confirmed with certainty that Overlord Commerce had the complete Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map, so it must not fall into their hands.
With all four fragments, perhaps the Qianwang Holy Tower could also create part of the Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map.
Finally, Pei Kuang began formulating all sorts of plans.
In the end, an order was issued to start the action, with the first step being the advance of troops to surround Overlord City.
Once everything was arranged, Pei Kuang left the golden building and went to Lady Li’s courtyard, where he got straight to the point as soon as he arrived: "Madam, accompany me to the Heavenly Dao Sacred Land..."
With these words, Lady Li slightly lifted her head and then gently agreed.
The same statement stands: Sikong Jing has been confirmed not to be the son of Mr. and Mrs. Sikong, so to find that little offspring, one must aid the Qianwang Holy Tower in conquering the world; hence, she will assist Pei Kuang.
The reason Pei Kuang wants to bring Lady Li along is, of course, to give a strong deterrent to the Heavenly Dao Sacred Land.
To fight Overlord Commerce, Pei Kuang must issue a heavy warning to those formidable sects that can threaten the Qianwang’s status, deterring them from making any moves, and with him and Lady Li together, they can create such intimidation for the Heavenly Dao Sacred Land...
Pei Kuang, thinking of this, looked at the young boy beside him and said, "Desire Saint, you should come with us, too."
To this, Pei Yusheng smiled and nodded in agreement...
Just like that, the three of them set out as a family.
And just as they departed, Pei Kuang grinned fiercely, saying, "After the visit to the Heavenly Dao Sacred Land, I also want to personally go to the East Plain Northern Land to check on my old rival Su Old Demon’s tomb, and I want to break the sword array he left before his death..."
Lady Li heard this, smiling slightly as she nodded, "Yes, and also to see if Sikong Jing is from the descendants of those mold ghosts."
This is to see if Sikong Jing is a descendant of those misfortunate individuals used as array bases by the Lingtian Emperor Family, and if there are remnants of those mold ghosts behind him...
Regarding the mold ghosts, Lady Li did inform Pei Kuang after returning.
...
Time continued to pass by.
Sikong Jing, operating in the Central Plains East, received various news and intel. As Pei Kuang’s orders and the actions of the Qianwang Holy Tower unfolded, the entire situation in the Central Plains began to change drastically.
Overlord Commerce was besieged, and various business routes were blocked and cut off.
Major figures from different sects stationed in Overlord City began contemplating, with some staying to continue waiting for the auction of the Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map, while others, fearing war, chose to leave...
Any who left were not stopped by the Qianwang Holy Tower, but those trying to enter Overlord City were blocked.
Three days after Overlord City was besieged, several forces suddenly sent troops to attack it, but these were minor skirmishes meant to create an atmosphere of panic and uncertainty inside Overlord City.
Meanwhile, elsewhere in the Central Plains, smoke signals indicating conflict began to rise.
While Sikong Jing was digesting various pieces of news, a worried voice suddenly came to his ears: "Ajing, what should we do next? If this continues, how much longer can Overlord City hold out?"
Sikong Jing, upon hearing this, naturally knew who was speaking behind him; it was Duanmu Chun of the East Dominator Grand Dominator Decision.
Indeed, at this time, Sikong Jing had returned to the East Dominator Branch of the Central Plains East.
And now, the East Dominator Branch was also not faring well, with various forces hesitant to engage and even some secretly suppressing them.
To this, Sikong Jing calmly said, "Just a bit more endurance will be enough, and actually, this upheaval is not entirely to our disadvantage. Qianwang Holy Tower’s move is indeed ruthless..."
"But next, the Murong Datian Decision will fully open up part of the Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map for purchase."
"Switching from auction to direct purchase."
