Chapter 1007 (Supreme Overlord)

With the guard's report, the entire hall fell into silence – the Demon Capital was invading!

The situation was unprecedented and terrifying! Everyone's faces showed rare expressions of shock.

Even Huang Fei furrowed his brow. This development was sudden; the Demon Capital, known for minor disturbances, had suddenly become aggressive. They had assembled a five-million-strong army!

Huang Yun suddenly stood up and walked to the centre, kneeling down. "Father Emperor, your son is willing to go to battle against the enemy!"

Huang Li quickly followed, kneeling respectfully. "Father Emperor, your son is also willing to go to battle!"

Ye Hua sat silently aside without saying a word. Even if the Demon Capital's forces reached the city gates, he wouldn't care.

Ye Yuanqing below also stepped forward, saying respectfully, "Your Majesty, as a major battle approaches, I humbly request the Emperor to allow this subordinate to participate in the fight!"

Huang Fei, who initially wanted to strip Ye Yuanqing of his military power, realised the urgency of the situation. How could personal desires outweigh the need for capable commanders during a major battle? It would be a counterproductive move to demote a general just for personal reasons.

Thus, Huang Fei spoke in a solemn tone, "General Ye, go to the border immediately and defend it rigorously! I will dispatch reinforcements promptly!"

Ye Yuanqing felt relieved, "Thank you, Your Majesty! This subordinate will depart immediately!"

As Ye Yuanqing stood up and left, her commanding presence was evident. The audience couldn't help but be impressed.

Looking at his unmarried fiancée, Shan Yu, Ye Yuanqing couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed. Her walking style lacked any feminine charm. It was a pity for that beautiful face and figure.

With Ye Yuanqing's departure, the atmosphere in the hall became somewhat heavy.

Ye Shen sighed in relief, realising the danger his daughter was in with the Demon Capital sending five million troops.

Shan Junren respectfully said, "Your Majesty, with the sudden attack from the Demon Capital, it seems to be a premeditated and planned action. We cannot take this lightly!"

"What's the Prime Minister's opinion?" Huang Fei asked calmly, ignoring his kneeling son.

Prime Minister Shan Junren spoke in a low voice, "Your Majesty, do you recall the once-in-a-hundred-thousand-years event, the 'Supreme Overlord'?"

As soon as these words were uttered, intense discussions erupted among the crowd. Their faces showed a mix of surprise and astonishment. If it weren't for Shan Junren's reminder, everyone might have forgotten.

Huang Fei was well aware. The Supreme Overlord, occurring once every hundred thousand years, was a chance to advance from Overlord to Supreme Overlord! This was the fastest path, but it occurred only once in a hundred thousand years and wasn't guaranteed.

Legend had it that only by relying on a powerful killing aura, along with countless lost souls, one could become the Supreme Overlord. No wonder the Demon Emperor dispatched five million troops this time – the goal was the Supreme Overlord.

If they could breach their own borders, it would be an even better outcome.

Huang Fei and Huang Yun were also aware of the legend of the Supreme Overlord. A greedy look emerged on their faces. Becoming a Supreme Overlord would be a magnificent moment. The throne was already within reach, and they might even be able to create their own small world, becoming rulers.

"Continue, Prime Minister Shan." Huang Fei spoke softly.

"Your Majesty, we have no choice but to engage in battle, and we should seize this opportunity." With Shan Junren's words, Huang Fei slowly closed his eyes. Being a Supreme Overlord would indeed be good, but the competition for it would involve many powerful individuals, including Supreme Overlords not under his jurisdiction.

It seemed that the struggle for advancement would incur heavy losses.

If they didn't want the Demon Emperor to succeed, refraining from sending troops might be an option, but it also meant losing control of the border. Then the Demon Emperor could march directly towards the Spirit City, leaving devastation in his wake. If his five million troops entered, the losses could be even more significant. Therefore, reinforcements were essential.

They even needed to vie for becoming Supreme Overlord!

Qian Yuqing only hoped that Ye Hua wouldn't go, or the Emperor wouldn't send him. In the past, Ye Hua disappeared for a thousand years due to similar circumstances. Qian Yuqing didn't want Ye Hua to get hurt again for the same reason.

"Prince Ye, how do you view this matter?" Huang Fei suddenly asked.

Ye Hua had just been contemplating the issue of theSupreme Overlord. There would undoubtedly be numerous Overlords involved, providing an excellent opportunity for revenge.

"All those from the Demon Capital deserve to die! Kill them!" Ye Hua declared with a resolute killing intent.

However, at this moment, Huang Fei was considering another possibility – just like the last time. He could have Ye Hua killed again, leading to death on the battlefield.

As for his two sons, they would definitely be sent this time. Such a significant event required the participation of members of the royal family; otherwise, people might say that the Emperor's children were cowards.

"Very well! Huang Yun!"

"Your son is here!"

"Take three million soldiers to reinforce!"

"Your son obeys!" Huang Yun respectfully responded.

"Huang Li!"

"Your son is here!"

"Take one million soldiers to reinforce!"

Huang Li's expression tightened; the Emperor was favouring his younger brother too much. As the eldest son, he was only assigned one million soldiers, while Huang Yun got three million. Did the Emperor really look down on him so much?

But what could he do?

"Your son obeys!"

After giving the orders, Huang Fei looked at Ye Hua. "Prince Ye, it seems like you also want to seek revenge."

"Of course," Ye Hua replied calmly.

"I initially wanted you to rest in the city for a few more days, but unfortunately, with the invasion of the Demon Army and considering Prince Ye's desire for revenge, I will fulfil your wish. Prince Ye, you shall go as a military adviser!"

Ye Hua smiled inwardly. The Emperor was just hesitating a moment ago, but it seemed he now wanted to eliminate Ye Hua on the battlefield. 'Well then, let's see how capable you are. Is it you who's formidable, or is it me, the mighty one!'

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Ye Hua pretended to express gratitude. 'You have your plans, and I have mine. Let's see who comes out on top!'

But Ye Hua's chances of winning were undoubtedly much higher. Alas, it could only be said that people who opposed him generally didn't end well, even if they were intelligent. They couldn't avoid a confrontation using force.

With such an event, the banquet was undoubtedly coming to an early end.

Ye Hua, of course, went straight home. Qian Yuqing also had to return home since she hadn't officially married into the palace yet, and she couldn't sleep directly in the imperial palace.

Huang Yun was about to go to battle and had preparations to attend to.

Huang Fei called him to the imperial sleeping chamber.

"Father, Ye Hua is too arrogant, blatantly disregarding you! He needs to be dealt with!" Huang Yun began pouring fuel on the flames as soon as he arrived. He felt that only if Ye Hua died, Qian Yuqing would focus entirely on him.

If Huang Fei got angry just because of these words, he wouldn't be a formidable emperor.

"Yun, do you know why I assigned three million soldiers to you?" Huang Fei asked calmly.
