Chapter 1131: Dawn (II)
Li Hao laughed merrily amid a backdrop of bloody rain drifting in the wind.
“What’s with all the long faces?” he shouted. “We won! We conquered an ancient city and toppled Divine Nation!
“All those who have died are just asleep. They will return! I, Li Hao, will spend the rest of my life seeking control of the world so as to perfect life and death, as well as reverse time. They will return!”
The group’s hearts quailed! Even the world shook violently—heaven’s will blustered in protest!
“I would show you some respect if you did as you were told.” A cold light glinted in Li Hao’s eyes as he looked up and around him. “If you try to stop me... I will show you that even heaven’s will can be killed!”
Heaven’s will was still howling; thunder and lightning crackled into being. The deaths of the divine spirits had harmed its foundations!
Sword intent pierced through the world as Li Hao took to the air. He smashed through all of the lightning with his sword. The world immediately quieted down; only the bloody rain continued.

Her expression flickered and she quickly responded softly, “The commander is mighty. Watercloud Dynasty is weak and was forced into the joint offensive between the four nations. Watercloud can become part of Skystar Dynasty. The south is indeed unsuited for inhabitation.”
Li Hao inclined his head and turned to the Great Li king.
“Great Li... will retreat!” intoned the king after his face shifted through various expressions. “We will retreat behind Ash Mountain! There are countless tribes within my nation, so this king... cannot surrender!”
