Chapter 627: Battle of the Royal Court

Both sides fought desperately, and Unard Eagle was forced to use his flesh and blood to pave a bloody path and escape madly.

Naridlu, who had lost an arm, was abandoned by his brother at the critical moment of life and death and died under the hooves of the chaotic army.

Unard Eagle fled, escorted by his personal guards. Meanwhile, the Shenwu Emperor, surrounded by elite soldiers and generals, galloped up another hillside, his steed neighing and raising a cloud of dust. Leng Qujing's expression was solemn: "Your Majesty, King Beinar is about to escape!"

Lan Youchen frowned as he watched the fleeing figure, feeling a faint sense of regret in his heart, "It's a pity they ran quite far, otherwise we would have formed a bow and arrow formation and made sure they never returned!"

Wei Yanting said nonchalantly, "He can't escape. His Majesty will lead us to King Beinar's hometown soon!"

Emperor Shenwu calmed the neighing and roaring of his warhorse and shouted, "Bring me my powerful bow!"

Two soldiers immediately came forward carrying the exclusive bow of Emperor Shenwu. Several generals stared at the mysterious black bow with burning eyes. It was said that this bow was left by the Human Emperor for the emperor of Dasheng. Only every emperor of Dasheng could draw this bow, so it was called the "Emperor's Bow"!

The Emperor's Divine Bow is a dark black, yet shimmers with a magnificent golden glow. Cast from a mysterious black gold, its bow is engraved with the patterns of a soaring dragon. On one side, a lifelike dragon head appears, its pupils the color of jasper gemstones. On the other, a distinct dragon tail features scales as smooth as black jade. Its lines flow gracefully, imbued with a sense of strength and power, yet also a refined elegance.

The bowstring of the Emperor's Divine Bow was smooth and translucent, like a thread tugging at the stars, gleaming with beautiful silver light. The bow itself was so heavy that two soldiers were required to carry it simultaneously. The Divine Martial Emperor's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and he grasped the bow with his great hands. The bow seemed to sense the movement, and a flash of golden light passed from the dragon's head to its tail. The Emperor then drew his specially crafted bow and arrow, nocking it on the string. His phoenix eyes were focused, his breathing steady, and his mighty arms unleashed with all their might! The Emperor's Divine Bow shimmered with golden light, as if responding to its master's call.

The Emperor Shenwu aimed at Unard Eagle's back. At this moment, the bowstring was full of the moon, and silver light flowed. His fingers loosened, and the bowstring hummed. The arrow flew through the air like lightning, and the air seemed to be cut by the arrow. The arrow chased Unard Eagle and accurately shot his vest. Unard Eagle, who was fleeing in a panic, was pierced by the arrow in the chest. His whole tall body suddenly fell onto the horse's back. Someone was terrified and shouted, "Your Majesty!"

"Who shot him? He was clearly out of range..."

A general jumped onto the back of Unad Eagle's horse while galloping and fled with Unad Eagle!

Wei Yanting looked at the arrow that flew in his direction and shouted, "Your Majesty is mighty!"

Everyone reacted, "Your Majesty is mighty! Your Majesty is mighty! Your Majesty is mighty!"

Emperor Shenwu lowered his arm and ordered, "Destroy the remaining enemy forces and halt the pursuit!"

After the encirclement and suppression campaign was over, the Crown Prince met the Shenwu Emperor in the imperial military tent. His eyes lit up surprisingly, and after paying his respects, he continued to look at the Shenwu Emperor with admiration. The Shenwu Emperor chuckled and said, "Why? Are you interested in my bow?"

The prince laughed and said, "Father, I only realized today how much effort you used to hold back when teaching me. You only used the Emperor's Bow against the Unad Eagle. I am ashamed of myself!"

Emperor Shenwu said, "My son, you are too modest. I will pass this Emperor's Divine Bow to you sooner or later. No one else can pull the bowstring except you!"

The prince excitedly asked, "Father, can I take a look at this divine bow?"

Emperor Shenwu waved his hand, and immediately two soldiers came up carrying the divine bow. The prince picked up the Emperor's divine bow in admiration. As soon as he picked it up, the overwhelming power was transmitted to the prince. The prince's phoenix eyes flashed with shock, admiration, and love for the powerful weapon.

The prince tried to pull the bowstring with his bare hands, then filled it with internal energy and stretched the muscles of his entire arm. The bowstring then formed a full moon and made a humming sound.

The eldest prince lifted the curtain and was about to enter when he saw the Emperor's Divine Bow, which had been drawn by the Crown Prince, facing him. The eldest prince took a half step back and hurriedly said, "Sixth brother, change direction!"

The prince walked out of the tent decisively and pointed the bowstring filled with internal energy upwards to the sky. The next moment, the prince released the bowstring with flowing silver light. An invisible gust of wind broke through the void and spread towards the sky. A bird that happened to be flying above the sky let out a mournful cry and fell to the ground.

The prince exclaimed, "What a wonderful bow!"

The eldest prince sighed softly, "Sixth brother, you have strong arms, and only you can use this bow!"

The prince fondled the Emperor's Divine Bow, reluctantly returning it to the Divine Martial Emperor. "This is my father's Emperor's Divine Bow. My father was so brave and powerful. That Unard Eagle was shot by an arrow and lost most of his life. The remaining grassland tribes must be in panic. It all depends on when my father can wipe them out!"

Emperor Shenwu ordered his two sons to step forward and solemnly stated, "Unard Eagle is seriously injured and will definitely retreat with his troops to the grassland royal court. The time has come. Convey my decree and summon all civil and military officials to the imperial camp to discuss the attack on the grassland royal court!"

The Crown Prince and the First Prince were both filled with excitement. Barring any unforeseen events, this would be the final battle of the border war! They were fortunate enough to participate in and witness this battle destined to be recorded in history. Pride, honor, and the conviction of victory filled their hearts. After all, the all-out war between Dasheng and the grassland tribes had only lasted a little over a year and two months.

Civil officials, military commanders, and counselors all rushed to the imperial camp as quickly as possible. One minister raised a question: "Your Majesty, the Unard Eagles have been defeated and fled, but the location of the grassland royal court is hidden. Previous generals have searched for it several times but returned empty-handed. If we give up this opportunity to fight, I'm afraid the war will be prolonged even further!"

The Shenwu Emperor, dressed in a tight-fitting outfit with narrow sleeves, sat at the head of the table. He waved his hand with full force, his fighting spirit high, and said, "This is no longer a problem! Crown Prince!"

The Crown Prince immediately stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Father, I have long since secretly discovered Unard Eagle's hidden new royal court. He concealed it with the yellow sand, drought, and complex grassland terrain. Inspired by your instructions, I have finally found the grassland people's royal court. Please, Father, deploy your troops. I am willing to be the pioneer and lead the Dasheng army to completely annihilate the grassland tribes!"

"Okay! Let's do as the prince says!"

The eldest prince was still shocked that the crown prince had already found the grassland royal court from the arid land. But upon hearing the words of the Emperor Shenwu, he no longer cared about anything else and immediately asked for permission to join the crown prince as the vanguard. The Emperor Shenwu agreed.

The two sons, especially the crown prince, had already been properly surrounded by the Shenwu Emperor. Almost all the phantom guards and secret guards were dispatched. Unless they were in life-threatening danger, these people would not come out of the dark.

Emperor Shenwu wanted the Crown Prince and the Eldest Prince to experience the baptism and training of war, but he did not want his sons to fall into danger and lose their lives.

The Crown Prince continued, "Father, during the battle at Luofeng Valley, I captured an old man dressed in Dasheng clothing. After interrogation, he introduced himself as Divine Doctor Mu. This sounded familiar to me, and I later remembered that many of the poisons concocted by Divine Doctor Mu had appeared in Dasheng, and even... Father, what do you think?"

Emperor Shenwu's eyes glared. "I never thought this unethical poison doctor would actually come to this grassland. I was wondering why I couldn't find him anywhere in Dasheng. No need to wait any longer. Cut off his head. He was previously employed by the Abandoned King and once refined contagious poisons. Later, he intentionally or unintentionally left behind many poisons that harmed people. His death truly deserves no pity!"

Lan Qingwu's cold poison came from this person's hand, and Emperor Shenwu wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible!

The Crown Prince bowed in agreement. He had long hated this man, but... "Father, this man also said that he still has a deadly poison scattered in the territory of Dasheng. He hopes that you will spare his life..."

Emperor Shenwu said coldly: "Before the army sets out, behead him and display his head to the public!"

This dangerous person who uses poison cannot be kept here any longer. Who knows how many lives this poison doctor will kill in the future!

The army once again moved intensively. After Emperor Shenwu had arranged his troops, the next day the Crown Prince led a group of troops into the depths of the grasslands, with the rest of the army following closely behind.

Unard Eagle fled back to the royal court. He had been unconscious for most of the day, but his excellent physical condition allowed him to wake up in the middle of the night. The grassland doctor said solemnly, "Your Majesty must rest in bed for the next six months. Avoid excessive mental and physical exertion!"

Unard Eagle remembered the scene in his dream where blood and fire were spreading towards him, and immediately ordered his three sons to be recalled to defend the royal court.

The next morning, while Unard Eagle was still enduring the excruciating pain from his wound, he heard a commotion outside the king's tent, with the sounds of people running around in panic. He said impatiently, "What's going on? You useless people..."

At this time, Unard Eagle's eldest son came trotting in, tumbling and crawling in a panic. He was panting, his face terrified, "Father, the Dasheng Emperor is leading his troops to attack us!"

"what!"

Unard Eagle jumped up in shock, but it agitated his wounds and he fell back onto the bed. "What nonsense! Impossible! This royal court was carefully chosen by me. Even many of the neighboring tribes couldn't find it without a leader. How could the Great Sheng Emperor possibly have found it?"

The eldest prince was terrified and said, "Father, it's true! They have already led their troops to surround the royal court, and the leader is none other than that Crown Prince Dasheng!"

Unard Eagle was filled with anger, hatred and fear, and his eyes were bloodshot!

The prince and his personal soldiers roamed among the enemy troops like killing weapons, and the grassland royal court was completely unprepared. Many people did not even have time to put on their armor, and died before they could effectively resist.

Faced with the iron-hoofed Dasheng army, all the tribes on the grassland were terrified. They were defeated. In just over an hour, the Dasheng army had completely taken control of the situation. The green grass on the grassland turned red, and blood submerged the grass leaves.
