Emperor Qian Ji's anger soared, feeling not a trace of benevolence in Ning Yunying's words. How could he submit to the Great Xia Dynasty, submit to Su Jie? Even if Su Jie was hailed as the foremost of Emperor Dongxu, an emperor was an emperor, and a Heavenly Venerable was a Heavenly Venerable; the two could not be equated.
Ning Yunying shook her head, saying, "Your Ningxuan Heavenly Venerate, he has long since fallen!"
"Nonsense, the Nether Profound Ancestor is a Crossing Dao Heavenly Venerable, how could he have fallen?"
Emperor Qian Ji refused to believe it, dismissing Ning Yunying's words as an attempt to lower the morale of their resisting army.
"If your Ningxuan Heavenly Venerate were still alive, why hasn't the Crossing Dao physical body he left in the Holy Land responded? Do you not find this astonishing?"
Ning Yunying pointed to the Mountain Protection Array, increasingly cracked under the attack of the thousand-hand centipede.
