Chapter 719 Blackmail
When thousands of heavenly soldiers and generals surrounded Li Yuan and fought his way back to Anshan, Li Yuan had already recovered to his prime.
Several powerful and top-level masters occupying the Anshan territory sensed their approach and came out to greet them.
They had no intention of engaging in a head-on battle, but instead used magic to hoist up a few nuclear bombs and aimed them at the unarmed people of Anyue.
"Li Yuan, what if you come back? Are you coming back to make a choice?"
"We want to see whether you care about the lives of tens of millions of mortals or not."
The enemy laughed cruelly. The ground was littered with the corpses of Anyue's soldiers, including some of the enemies who were killed by Anyue's spiritual science counterattack.
Those nuclear bombs that were taken out of the national treasury have now become a shadow hanging over the heads of the people of Anyue. As long as Li Yuan moves, these nuclear bombs will be detonated instantly.
The top powerful people each have the means to resist, and can even protect several other powerful people, but those mortals will suffer, they will die in the instantaneous explosion of the nuclear bomb.
If Li Yuan takes forceful action, tens of millions of ordinary people in Anyue will be wiped out by nuclear bombs. When things ferment, the enemy only needs to manipulate public opinion a little to blame Li Yuan for the deaths of tens of millions of people, and the good reputation that Anshan has maintained for many years is likely to be completely destroyed.
Anshan Li Yuan, who has lost his faith in the human world, has at least lost one arm in overall strength.
But if Li Yuan doesn't move and lets the enemy take whatever they want...this is totally impossible.
These enemies were using an open conspiracy to force Li Yuan to take action no matter what. Anyway, they had no intention of letting Anyue, a place with hidden dangers, go.
After developing for dozens or hundreds of years, even the powerful ones can be killed. This kind of disaster cannot be allowed to continue!
Mortals should just remain ignorant and honest, like pigs in a pen, reproducing generation after generation!
Mortals with power dare to attack even immortals, gods, demons and monsters head-on. What kind of mortals are they? Where does this put them?
The enemies sneered in their hearts and had no intention of letting Anyuefan go.
Hearing the enemy's threat, Li Yuan stopped at the edge of Anshan territory.
In the human world, no mountain or river god power can stop the attack of several top powers and many powerful people, not even Anshan is an exception.
The aura of Lao Zhang lingering on Anshan made these enemies dare not cross the last line, but the entire Anshan area still suffered.
Last time he went out, he was at least prepared and invited the faceless weirdo to take charge, which helped him resist for a while. But the Xiantian Immortal Emperor came down directly and abolished his cultivation, forcing Li Yuan to commit suicide. It took him half a year to successfully revive, which was beyond his original expectations.
No one could predict Dao Zun's actions. This was Li Yuan's biggest loss so far, as he had used up one of his trump cards.
Perhaps sensing Li Yuan's concerns, Emperor Anyue, with disheveled hair, raised his head and shouted:
"Lord Mountain God, please don't worry about us!"
"If we are coerced by the enemy, we will lose every step!"
"When necessary, make sure you make a decision. Don't let the enemy succeed!"
An Yue has tried his best to face the enemy, and even killed many god-level enemies and killed two powerful figures.
But this is already the limit of mortal power at present. Those powerful top powers are completely beyond the level that An Yue can handle.
Even Emperor Anyue, the ruler of a country, was teased several times by his enemies during the past six months, as if he were an ant.
If it weren't for the strong dragon energy and extraordinary luck in his body, killing him would have brought great consequences. I'm afraid this mortal emperor who had been trying to stabilize the people's hearts and resisted would have been killed long ago.
However, within half a year, Crown Prince Ji Lin and many Anyue officials had been casually wiped out by these people, just like wiping away dust on a white paper.
Anger lingered in the heart of this human emperor, but he had been enduring it, forcing himself to stand up, not wanting to let his panicked people lose their last hope.
Until...he discovered that his and his survival were just bargaining chips used by the enemy to threaten Li Yuan.
"I'm sorry, my people..."
Emperor Anyue cast a seemingly sad look towards the sky, and a drop of turbid tears flowed down his wrinkled face.
He worked hard throughout his life to protect his people, from prosperity to despair, from hardship to strength, all for the purpose of giving his people a better life.
But this time, he was unable to protect him anymore, at least... he couldn't drag Li Yuan into the dilemma.
Emperor Anyue knew that those enemies who were called powerful or top powerful were all cruel, powerful and evil people. They regarded ordinary people as ants and grass and did not care about having blood on their hands.
The so-called threats from the enemy are totally unreliable. Before Li Yuan returned, they had been slaughtering innocent civilians!
"Lord Mountain God... Go ahead and kill all these enemies!"
"I'm Anyue...no regrets!"
Emperor Anyue took off the imperial crown on his head with his own hands, his whole body trembling.
The moment the words came out of his mouth, all the strength in his body seemed to be drained away. He felt extremely guilty and deeply regretful.
An elderly emperor selfishly made a choice on behalf of his people and personally gave up the lives of all the people in Anyue Capital.
But even though he regretted everything, he still... had no regrets!
We must never let the mountain god fall into a passive position and be manipulated by the enemy's evil schemes, otherwise the situation will only become more serious and life will only become more difficult!
And...in case Li Yuan really has some idea, it would be good for him to stand up and attract attention, shout a few words, create some disputes, and buy some time for Li Yuan!
After many years of friendship, Li Yuan and Emperor Anyue are very familiar with each other. In their delicate minds, one action often has multiple meanings.
Li Yuan was in the sky and saw everything clearly. He also received the seemingly sad look from Emperor Anyue.
Above the earth, at the moment when Emperor Anyue shouted with all his might, countless pairs of eyes of Anyue people turned to look at his Majesty the Emperor.
In those eyes, there was disbelief, shock, anger, disbelief, and indescribable complexity...
In the end, the people of Anyue City remained silent and just looked up at the sky.
No one is willing to give up their life, and not everyone can see the specific strength of the enemy and Li Yuan's predicament.
Looking at the desperate, helpless and sad expression of His Majesty the Emperor, the people gradually realized that this enemy might be very terrifying.
For them, the words "powerful" and "top powerful" were all very distant and unfamiliar. They had blind trust in Li Yuan, and this trust was enough to support them until the last moment before death.
"Master Mountain God, come on!"
"No matter what you choose, we... believe in you!"
People could not shout along with Emperor Anyue's words, as that would be equivalent to them willing to give up their lives. They just kept their last hope and silently waited for Li Yuan to make the final choice.
Above the sky, the two sides confronted each other and the atmosphere was extremely cold.
Listening to the shouts coming from the earth, Li Yuan's body was trembling, but the enemy was grinning.
They admired the shouts of the emperor and the people, as well as their silent and hopeful eyes, and felt that the mortals who once had great trust in the emperor were wavering. They thought this was a perfect drama.
"How is it, top power, Anshan Mountain God~~Have you made your choice?"
"These ants seem to have different thoughts...but they are all looking at you eagerly~"
