Chapter 987 - 426: Supreme Sovereign of the World, City of the Jiang Family
Outside the south city gate, 1.9 million of the Red Flame Army have already approached, with a dozen figures levitating in the air above. At the forefront, Lu Kangping spoke the names of the two generals on the city gate, looking at Hou Yuxiao with a rather excited expression.
Hou Yuxiao took a deep breath, turned his head to look at Jiang Yuyun and Jiang Yuli standing beside him, and said in a low tone: "Since the Prince says there is a way to breach the city, please produce it early so we can break the city in time and welcome Your Highness to the throne!"
The Jiang siblings caught the implicit threat in Hou Yuxiao's tone, their faces a bit uneasy, but as they looked down at the Red Flame Army near the gate, an inexplicable thrill and ferocity flashed in their eyes.
Eight years, they have been confined by Hou Yuxiao for eight full years!
Now, there's finally a chance to turn the tables, even though they understand Hou Yuxiao is using them, they find it hard to resist such tempting conditions.
Especially Jiang Yuyun.
As long as he can breach the divine capital, he can ascend to that long-coveted position.
Jiang Yuyun's fists in his sleeves were nearly drawing blood as he looked at Hou Yuxiao, Chu Kuangren, and Lu Kangping, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "The three of you only need to dispatch troops to forcefully attack, I can open the divine capital's gates at any time!"
A hint of doubt flashed in Hou Yuxiao's eyes, as he hasn't controlled Jiang Yuyun, making him a bit skeptical. However, the arrow had already been nocked, and there was no choice but to release it; further delay would allow Pingcheng King at Hulao Pass and Emperor Yuliang in the Dongyuan Path's Imperial Capital to react. If he couldn't breach the divine capital, everything would be lost.
This was a high-stakes gamble!
