Gate of God

Panda Novel

In half a month’s time, the Southern Region had ended up in this state. The tens of thousands of soldiers were down to less than 50,000, the previous King of the Southern Region had died in the battle of the Sagely Mountain City, three out of the six Settlement Chief had died while the remaining three were severely injured. Only one out of the seven cities were left uninvaded.

How could Shan Yu escape?

Where could she escape to?

“To the Flame Capital City. Although the Great Xia did not send troops, My Lord is still the King of Great Xia, how could the Great Xia sit back and not do anything?”

“Yes, Your Highness, please start moving now, we will protect you with our lives on the route!”

“Please move now, Your Highness!”

The three Settlement Chief’s hearts were bleeding as they looked at Shan Yu’s expression. Nevertheless, they gritted their teeth and continued begging her after exchanging glazed with one another.

“Great Xia?” Shan Yu took a glance at the three Settlement Chief and the surrounding soldiers who were covered in blood, and clenched her fist slowly.

In fact, she had already sent a letter to ask for support to the Flame Capital City a month ago, however, till date, the Great Xia Dynasty has yet to send over any soldiers.

Shan Yu knew that it was not because of Great Xia’s unwillingness, but rather because the unstable situation in Great Xia did not allow them to have the ability to send soldiers over to assist the Southern Region.

As for the royal bloodline that the three Settlement Chiefs mentioned about…

How would there be any royal bloodline if the Southern Region was gone?

“No, I will not leave!” Shan Yu shook her head.

“Your Highness, it will really be too late if you don’t leave now. The Demon soldiers are reaching soon, by then, the Southern Region would really be doomed!”

“Please leave now, Your Highness, while the Demon soldiers are still a mile away, we can protect you and help you make your way to the Flame Capital City.”

“That’s right, please take into consideration of the plight of the Southern Region, Your Highness!”

The three Settlement Chiefs understood the aspiration of Shan Yu. In over a year’s time, under the rule of Shan Yu, the Southern Region had experienced a rare state of peace and prosperity.

After importing the plantation technology of the Great Xia Dynasty, the people of the Southern Region finally had a stable harvest and could fill their stomachs with the food they planted, and they no longer need to go out to hunt for food.

The people of the Southern Region also had smiles on their faces…

This was what Shan Yu had accomplished in the timespan of a year. She opened up the Southern Region, made use of the advantages of the outside world and accepted the tradition and culture of the Great Xia Dynasty.

However…

Things did not go as planned. A Great War destroyed the accomplishment of the Southern Region and everything was caused by a Monster named Lin Ji.

One and a half month ago, Lin Ji arrived at the Southern Region.

She stood at the front of the palace with her own capabilities. From that moment, the Southern Region realized that there was someone who was powerful enough to fight against 10,000 by herself.

Of course, Lin Ji was not powerful enough to kill the entire Southern Region on her own. After all, there were way too many soldiers in the Southern Region. Even if they had stood in front of Lin Ji and waited for her to kill them, she probably had to spend a year’s time to do so.

However, Lin Ji brought up a term.

Offering, a first-class offering.

Shan Yu agreed because she had no other choices. The only thing she could do was to bring Lin Ji into the palace and order others to serve her.

However, that was the start of a nightmare.

Those who were sent to serve Lin Ji were killed if they did not get along well with her. Some of them died before even stepping into Lin Ji’s room.

It took a mere three to five days before the palace ended up in state of mess.

Nobody dared to serve Lin Ji, but Lin Ji would begin a massacre in the palace the moment she did not see anyone. In this situation, the palace was in a mess.

Shan Yu knew that Lin Ji did this on purpose.

However, she had no choice and could only bear with it. She also asked someone to help her send a SOS signal to the Great Xia Dynasty. However, at this moment, news of the enemy came from the Nan Ling Settlement of the Blood Shadow City.

Both the internal and external security were being threatened.

Shan Yu was on the verge of devastation.

However, Lin Ji brought up the idea of taking over the troops of the Southern Region to defend against the Demon Race. She also forced Shan Yu to hand over the military power to her.

Both Shan Yu and the previous King of the Southern Region could not have possibly agreed.

However, Lin Ji was way too powerful. With a mere movement of her fingers, she could kill a powerful individual of the Rebirth state. How could the previous King of the Southern Region negotiate with her?

The outcome was obvious…

The previous King of the Southern Region died in the battle in the palace. Lin Ji managed to obtain the stamp of the King of the Southern Region and sent a letter to ask for assistance to the Nan Ling Settlement and Iron Hill Settlement.

Afterwards, the Sagely Mountain City, then the Nan Ling Settlement and Iron Hill Settlement were invaded.

“Your Highness!”

“Your Highness, please make a decision quickly!”

The three Settlement Chief desperately pleaded Shan Yu.

“No, stop talking. I won’t leave. There are only Kings who die in a battle, not Kings who escape from a battle!” Shan Yu clenched her fist and sounded extremely determined.

After hearing this, the three Settlement Chiefs lowered their head and took a glance at each other. Then, the three of them clenched their teeth.

“My Lord, please forgive us for being disrespectful!”

“What… what do you guys want?! I won’t leave, not over my dead body!” Shan Yu’s expression changed drastically as the three Settlement Chiefs pounced on her.

However, it was too late. The three Settlement Chiefs’ energy and the close distance between them caused Shan Yu to have no time to react.

“No, let go of me, I am the King of the Southern Region! How dare you guys! Mmm mmm…” Shan Yu wanted to struggle but her mouth was covered by a piece of animal skin.

“Your Highness we have to send you away no matter what. Even if you don’t agree, we have to do so. If you want us to die together with you, you can struggle as much as you want to attract the attention of the Demon soldiers!” After subduing Shan Yu, the three Settlement Chiefs fell on their knees again.

Shan Yu froze as she stared at the three Settlement Chiefs kneeling in front of her. Then, she turned her head towards one side and stopped resisting.

“Send my orders, no matter what, defend for two hours before surrendering!”

“Yes!”

…

At the North Gate of the Thunderous Lion Settlement.

“No Demon soldiers in sight!” A soft voice was heard.

“Alright, dash out, turn to the direction of the Qing Mountain then towards the Great Xia!” Another voice replied after a moment.

“Yes!”

After the sentence, the city gate slowly opened and a group of ten, each covered in a thick black animal skin, sprinted out of the gate.

At night, the group of ten did not make too much noise. Especially since the Silver Horned Wolf they were riding on were extremely familiar with the mountain roads, they disappeared outside the city gate after a few leaps.

The mountain breeze blew. The ten people were extremely fast, leaping and avoiding the main road, after an hour, the group of ten were a mile’s distance away from the Thunderous Lion Settlement.

“We are finally out.”

“Not yet, anything could happen if we haven’t left the Southern Region. Hurry a little so we can reach the Qing Mountain before sunrise.”

“You’re right. Before you leave the Southern Region, anything could happen.” At this moment, a voice was heard from the forest.

Then, a figure walked out of the forest gradually. Each of her steps was extremely alluring and her waterfall-like hair was at her waist area.

It was a lady.

A very young lady that had a pair of alluring eyes and smile.

Extremely beautiful.

However, the group of ten stopped immediately with faces of horror the instant they saw the lady.

“Why, the Southern Region has already lost, why do you want to exterminate us!” The man who was leading the team sounded extremely angry.

“Haha, I thought you would ask me about why am I here.” The lady smiled lightly and lifted her hair from her forehead with her fair fingers.

“Leave with Your Highness!”

“Leave? Where do you think you all are leaving to?” Lin Ji blinked and pointed around them. “To the East or the West, or to the South or the North? Oh… I forgot to say this, you guys have been surrounded, I don’t think any direction works.”

After she spoke, countless of fire torches appeared in the surroundings and thousands of Demon soldiers charged from the forest.

The group of ten’s faces turned extremely pale.

They knew how powerful Lin Ji was. When Lin Ji appeared, they knew that the probability of them escaping was less than ten percent.

But they overestimated the probability…

Lin Ji did not even give them ten percent of chance of escaping.

How could they possible escape after being surrounded by thousands of Demon soldiers?

“Lin Ji, we’ll kill you!” The three Settlement Chiefs stood out together, flexing their muscles. Moreover, two of them had their backs covered with black hair, making them look like two giant bears.

“Hahaha… kill? How to kill? Luckily Young Empress had predicted that you guys would flee. When I kill Shan Yu, the Thunderous Lion Settlement would naturally self-destruct without the need of my soldiers!” Lin Ji laughed evil and moved her fingers. “Kill them all!”

“Attack!” Loud voices were heard as countless of arrows that were glistening with cold light shot down like raindrops at the group of ten.

“Ah…”

“Ah!!”

Screams of pain were heard as a few of the Southern Region soldiers were injured. However, despite that, they did not collapse.

“Lin Ji!” The three Settlement Chiefs charged towards Lin Ji at a speed of lightning.

Meanwhile, Lin Ji looked at the three Settlement Chiefs and gave a smile that looked as evil as a poisonous snake.

“I have no time to waste on this kind of nonsense.” After she spoke, Lin Ji vanished from her spot and appeared in the middle of the group of ten.

Boom!

The powerful airwave created a force that was so impactful that it caused the entire group to fly off. The aura that was like a knife filled the air and made sharp sounds.

“Oh, so the King is tied up? Why do this?” Lin Ji did not bother about the soldiers of the Southern Region who flew because of the impact. She held onto Shan Yu who was wrapped around a black animal skin, stuck out her small tongue and gave him a lick at the corner of her lips.

“Mmm mmm…” Shan Yu wanted to talk but her mouth was sealed up by the animal skin and her hands were tied. She could not open her mouth nor move at all.

“If you had known it would end up like this, why did you act like that in the beginning? If you had agreed for me to lead the soldiers of the Southern Region, perhaps I could have helped you defend against the Demon soldiers, am I right?”

“Mmm!”

“Calm down, let me finish my sentence. As the king, you must be calm and patient, why are you so anxious?” Lin Ji shook her head gently as she looked at Shan Yu who had turned purple and continued, “Look at how you forced me to join the Demon Race, now isn’t the Southern Region doomed? Do you regret now?”

“Mmm…” Shan Yu clenched her fist tight and was fuming with rage. Her eyes gradually became pitch black as though black flames were burning in them.

“Hahaha, do you want to speak, what do you want to say before you die? What a pity but I do not want you to speak. Are you furious? Are you going to die with regrets?” Lin Ji continued laughing until her body swayed. “I love to see how you are dying to speak although you can’t.”

“Your Highness!”

“Your Highness, we have let you down!”

“…”

The three Settlement Chiefs’ eyes welled up in tears as they saw Shan Yu being held single-handedly by Lin Ji. They wanted to dash forward in anguish.

However, the more anxious they were, the more arrows struck them.

“Attack!” The thousands of Demon soldiers roared and surrounded the three Settlement Chiefs. They attacked the three Settlement Chiefs with their sharp sabres.

Shan Yu widened her eyes as she looked at the three Settlement Chiefs, two streams of tears fell from her eyes.

“You are crying? Hmm.. you do have the right to cry as a weak person, I can’t stop you from that. How about you kowtow to me three times, I may consider giving you a chance to have some last words with them. What do you think? Want to beg me?” As Lin Ji spoke, she gave Shan Yu a punch and threw her on the floor with so much strength that the stones flew.

“Oh? You really knelt down to beg me?” Lin Ji covered her mouth with one hand and laughed wildly as she looked at Shan Yu who was thrown onto the ground in a kneeling position. “However, I won’t agree. I will never agree. So what? Do you hate me? Do you hate me very much? Come on, if you hate me, come and beat me up, beat me up with all your strength, on my face, on my beautiful face, beat me up with all your strength!”

Bam!

Lin Ji’s body was sent flying and her ‘beautiful face’ instantly became deformed.
