Chapter 669 - Success
It was true. The Phoenix Empire has suffered numerous and uncountable moments of storms and destructions. However, it remained standing despite the declining state because of Feng Lin\'s death. Remember, they had a legacy of trillions of years. The empire was the oldest one that had lived through eons after eons.
"So stop worrying. Furthermore, if ever push comes to shove, just summon me there. I guess you have the resources for that, right?" Ancestor Violet Cloud smiled.
Summoning a being like the ancestor\'s level was very expensive even for the emperor. After all, the distance was so far, spanning at least ten millions miles in a generous estimation. So it was understandable that the cost would be too much. Nevertheless, the emperor was capable of doing so and only would do it if ever everything didn\'t go as expected.
Since the ancestor wanted to step on these muddy waters, then all he could do was to agree.
"If that\'s what you want, Ancestor." Emperor Randies had no choice but to agree. Did he have a choice here? No, Violet Cloud had always have the final say and no one in Purple Haven Empire had the right to question it.
"Alright, I\'m going to rest for a while. Call me again if it\'s very urgent." The ancestor said and disconnected the connection.
Emperor Randies took a deep breath, smiling wryly. Things would be tough for the next coming days. He was just wishing that Jin Rou lad could overcome this catastrophe.

The next day has come. Jin Rou was no longer in pain. He was meditating with his eyes closed, golden lights were usually dancing around him.
Maya didn\'t have an ounce of sleep as she guarded and watched Jin Rou through all the steps. She was flabbergasted as the other party had successfully merged Beline\'s legacy into his body!
During the process, Jin Rou gritted his teeth and endured the excruciating pain for several hours. It tasted like hell and anyone who experienced that would wish to rather die. His skin kept on changing from red, green, orange, and black. And finally, it turned golden right now.
The golden light particles were still dancing beyond the space as they happily circled around Jin Rou.
After which, Jin Rou slowly opened his eyes and checked his body. His body was lighter and he could feel that he\'d gotten stronger than the previous.
"It turns out that it\'s a success." Jin Rou had all smiles in his face. The pain he endured was worth it.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty." Maya beamed a smile and greeted Jin Rou, "You are truly an amazing person. The first who I look up to."
It was the truth. Jin Rou had shown extreme tenacity and perseverance that not all person had. Even her ancestors couldn\'t exert this much willpower.
"This is what I expect." Jin Rou smirked. He was confident in this endeavor so he wasn\'t worried, "I won\'t be Jin Rou if I cannot accomplish this."
Maya laughed wryly. Perhaps only Jin Rou could talk with this level of arrogance. Of course, His Majesty earned it and deserved to be arrogant.
"Are there any news regarding the attack?" Jin Rou asked Maya.
"Your Majesty, an hour ago. There is a report that I have received." Maya turned solemn and her voice became heavy, "God King has announced that the three empires will attack the Phoenix Empire anytime today."
In truth, Maya wanted to prepare immediately after hearing this report. It was an emergency after all. But Jin Rou had yet to wake up so she delayed it longer. The threat of the was empires was no laughing matter and this battle would depend whether they would survive or not.
"So soon? It seems they have discovered that I have taken the legacy so they are speeding up their preparations." Jin Rou smirked, "Very well, since they are about to attack, I have to give them a proper welcome."
After that, Jin Rou stood up and opened a door to exit the space. Maya mustered her courage to say, "Your Majesty, let me fight by your side."
"No, that isn\'t possible." Jin Rou shook his head, "This is a battle where you might die without knowing how. I will take care of it so you don\'t have to worry. After this day, the Phoenix Empire will stand in a more prestigious manner."
Maya wanted to say more. But eventually, she could only sigh. His Majesty was right. She would die if ever she came with him. She didn\'t want to become a baggage during the battle. All she could was pray for His Majesty\'s safety.

Outside of the grand gate of Phoenix Empire, nine legions were on standby. They were the strongest legions of Blood Ancient Empire, Holy God Empire, and Soaring Immortal Empire.
They had fierce expressions as their morale was all time high, ready to annihilate everything in its path.
Just this morning, the three empires announced that they will attack the Phoenix Empire anytime today. After the news was spread, many sects and clans packed up and left the empire for a better place. They knew that the empire wouldn\'t be able to withstand the three empire\'s united attack so it was better to run away as far as possible and never return.
Of course, there were also many sects and families which chose to stay, the pillar families of the empire included. They were willing to fight to the death.
A few hours passed, it\'s already past noon and the sun was shining brightly and hot. Several figures appeared out of the void, Noah and Bloodflaw were included in the group who appeared.
"Here they come!" An old expert gasped. Many spectators were hiding to watch this grand battle. After all, the attack was open to the public unlike their previous activities which was hidden.
"Twelve Dao Supremes along with Noah and Bloodflaw, the two Universal Laws!" An ancestor was horrified. This line up could make anyone jolt in despair and kneel down. It was so scary that you wouldn\'t think straight if you face them.
Just think about it, 12 Dao Supremes were present along with two laws.. It was terrifying to imagine.
