I Heard I've Been Dead For Thousand Years

Chapter 768 - Reaching for the Apocalypse

Half a month later, Long He-Ying sent another letter saying that the time had come, and asked Lin Meng to immediately set out to join the Cangwu army, which had retreated to the edge of the western continent, and that the four armies of the four continents should join forces to enter Zhongzhou from the east, west, north, south, and south, and press on to the apocalypse.

In the letter, it was stated that the emperor, who had been crushed by Lin Meng and Bai Lingxu with the help of saints, died in a fatal accident.

I don't know what tricks the old emperor played before he died, but he made the emperor's name in his will.

In the letter, Long Huying informed Lin Meng that the Great Prince and the Thirteenth Prince, who had the best hope of achieving the throne, were not convinced.

The Grand Prince encouraged the ministers of the imperial court to confront him and delayed the enthronement of the eleventh prince, Ji Ren, for a long time.

The thirteenth prince, who was in the Longwei army in Zhongzhou, was a hard-headed and violent man who would rather give up the world to Long Huying than to have Ji Ren as the emperor, so he decided to let the army of Zhongzhou open the door for Long Huying's army of the four continents on the way to the apocalypse.

Now that the late emperor had died and the new emperor had yet to be crowned, the fate of the country was unstable, and the hearts and minds of the people and the military in Zhongzhou were unstable, it was a good time to raise the army!

After reading the letter, Lin Meng breathed a long sigh of relief, carried the Moving Thousand Mountains and Silver Spear Retaining Lan on his back, and slowly walked out of the quiet room of cultivation, looking towards the direction of Tianqi City.

"It's time to go on the road, right now is not only the best time for Long Huying, it's also the best time for the Holistic Saints, the final calamity is about to begin, whether or not we can successfully survive the calamity is at stake!"

Lin Meng first went to Luping City near Zhongzhou, on the western side of the continent, to meet up with Wang Shivu, the commander-in-chief of the Cangwu army stationed there, and then immediately marched eastward with the Cangwu army to enter the Eastern Continent to push for the apocalypse.

On the way, Lin Meng's Cangwu Army was unhindered, and the gates of the city were open everywhere they went, with no sign of the Cangwu Army in Zhongzhou.

The Cangwu army and Lin Meng arrived at the city safely and smoothly, and the city was under the direct control of the emperor, so the city gates were tightly guarded and every part of the city was prepared for battle.

Wang Shibu ordered the Cangwu army to be stationed in a township fifty miles away from the city, and was not in a hurry to attack, but waited for the armies of the other three continents to arrive and the armies of the four continents to meet at one place, and then capture the city in one swoop, with fewer casualties.

In front of him stood an old man and a young man dressed in Confucian costumes, which were Li Changyi and Lin Jin, the emperor's mentors of Da Yuan.

"Mr. Li, are you the Imperial Master? An old minister of the court? You are also an expert in rivers and lakes, why don't you help me in the court and convince the officials to hold the enthronement ceremony? They won't dare to disobey you!"

Is Li Changyi pestling his dead wooden staff? The eye curtains were half-open, the eyes watching the nose and nose watching the heart? It was as if a deaf and blind man couldn't see the anxiety of Ji Ren in front of him and couldn't hear his voice.

"Mr. Lin, you are the head of the Hong Tian Jian? The head of a hundred officials of the current dynasty? The head of the literary scholars and Confucian scholars in the world, please say something for me, they will definitely listen to your words."

Lin Jin shook his head slightly, also silent, anxious that Jiren jumped to his feet in the palace in a fury.

"I am the emperor? I want to ascend the throne, I want to ascend the throne! Only after I am enthroned can the fate of the country and the hearts and minds of the people be stabilized, and I can confront the armies of the four continents outside the city. Gentlemen, I beg you, help me speak, I'm on my knees to you!"

Ji Ren was about to kneel to Li Changyi and Lin Jin on the spot, but was dragged in mid-air by Li Changyi's outstretched hand.

"The first thing I noticed is that there is no need to do is to go to the Ancestral Temple and kneel before the ancestors.

The first thing I noticed was that the newest member of the family was the one who had been in the family for a long time.

"I will also take my leave!"

Lin Jin also took his leave, leaving Ji Ren to sit on the ground in the middle of the large palace hall, weak and confused, his hands pounding the floor of the palace, actually crying out.

"Damn, damn! Why didn't the Windy House kill Long Huying for me? If I had known that, why would I have gone to the trouble of encouraging my father to make me emperor, my elder brother and thirteen younger brothers, and let them take over this mess?

Outside the palace, Lin Jin and Li Changyi, two of the most powerful Xuanwu realm experts in the imperial court, were walking side by side, when Lin Jin suddenly asked.

"I have long heard that Mr. Li's fortune-detection skills are very powerful, but what do you think of the world today?"

Li Changyi snorted and chuckled, glancing at Lin Jin with slanted eyes.

"The fate of heaven is returning, the trend has been decided, isn't that Long Huying your hand-picked? How can you, the world's most knowledgeable and wise man, fail to see how the world is today?

Lin Jin did not feel embarrassed, but wanted to use this sentence to lay out his next sentence.

"If you know it, why do you insist on holding on to it?"

Li Changyi stopped at the news, and Lin Jin stopped as well, only to hear Li Changyi bow his head slightly and sigh.

"It's just that I don't want to go against the Dao."

Lin Jin struck the iron aggressively while it was hot.

"Could it be that you are so narrow-minded that you are limited to one dynasty, one family, and one surname, and you still want to hold on to it even though you know you will lose?"

"Huh!"

Li Changyi snorted, looked back at Lin Jin and sneered.

"Lin Jin, do you think that what I have in my heart is only the Ji family's Da Yuan Dynasty? You're wrong. You're dead wrong. You don't know me at all! What I have in my heart is the fate of humanity, the whole world! My insistence on sticking to my guns is just a sign of reluctance."

"Reluctant?"

Lin Jin's eyebrows furrowed, feeling that things might not be simple, and that Li Changyi's heart was definitely not simply reluctant to have the dynasty he had contributed his life to collapse like this.

"Yes, unwillingness is much worse than a fool."

Li Changyi tilted his head and laughed bitterly, shaking his head slightly before walking straight away, heading to his own mansion.

"A fool?"

Lin Jin stood there dumbfounded for a while and still had a sad frown on his face, but he couldn't figure out what Li Changyi was talking about with his knowledgeable and resourceful brain.
