But, as calm and relaxed as the soldiers guarding the wall were due to what Jian Shen and Li Mei did, the same couldn't be said about the Taiyang Empire which was soon about to descend into chaos.
Around the same time that the news of what had happened had been sent to the Yueliang Emperor, Zhao Xiulan had personally arrived at the Taiyang Empire's capital city to explain what had just happened
"Your Majesty."
"Speak freely Xiulan, I want to know what was so important for you to come back to the capital city so suddenly."
Nodding her head with a serious expression, Xiulan said, "We might need to rethink our strategy on dealing with the Yueliang Empire."
Not saying anything Wan Han, the Taiyang Empire's Emperor waited for Xiulan to explain herself because she wouldn't be speaking such words without any reason.

"I received a report a few days back about the Yueliang Empire having found the youngest Dharma Realm Cultivator ever to support them."
"And other than being special for achieving such a thing at a young age, he even had a master who was in the False Immortal Realm."
Eyes turning wide from hearing until here, Wan Han had to use all his patience to not turn anxious on the spot.
"I had originally thought that maybe this piece of news was fake and the only reason the Yueliang Empire was spreading this was because they wanted to make us feel nervous and scared."
"But after what I witnessed today, I can say for sure that all the news I received was true."
"There is a seventeen-year-old Dharma Cultivator who is supporting the Yueliang Empire, and his master is in the False Immortal Realm."
"This is the only way to explain what I saw in that battle... No, in that ma.s.sacre which took place."
Not enough details, thinking so Wan Han said, "Explain."
"Like always our side sent out a small army to launch attacks on the wall to harm the soldiers and if possible try and lure then out and force then to start the war, but the Yueliang Empire unlike before didn't use their ma.s.s of soldiers to attack us."
"There were only two individuals who spearheaded the attack and completely annihilated the army."
"One of them is Li Mei from the Thousand Sword Sect, while the other in Jian Shen."
"Seeing all the techniques he used, and way he fought against the army, I can say for sure that he isn't someone who was trained by someone normal."
"Just the Sword Qi around his swords was so huge that I wouldn't be surprised if he is the best Sword Cultivator on the entire Wu Yun Continent right now."
"Also, those weapons in his hands. They even managed to cut me."
Saying so Xiulan showed her finger which had been slashed by Jian Shen in their recent encounter.
By now Wan Han's face had turned completely grim and ordered for an emergency meeting which included the generals, Sect Leaders, and strong cultivators.
...
Sitting inside the room, almost everyone was surprised by seeing Wan Han who had a victorious smile on his face from the first day onwards look so grim and helpless.
"What has happened?"
As everyone who heard that question shook their heads in response, Wan Han finally began speaking.
"We are changing our strategy."
"What happened Wan Han?"
Looking towards the Myriad Flame Sect's Leader, Mo Ying, Wan Han said, "This is all because of your protégé's nephew."
"Jian Shen?"
Nodding his head, Wan Han revealed all the details he received about Jian Shen from Xiulan and even described how he slaughtered so many of the Saint Realm a.s.sa.s.sins he had sent to bring Wuying back with them.
Listening to all of this, the various individuals had various expressions in their faces but out of them all, there were only two of them who looked excited from hearing about this.
One of them was Jian Xinyi, while the other one was the strongest female on the Xiao Dao Continent, the Iron Body Sect's Leader, Qi Li.
Xinyi was excited due to being able to meet Jian Shen after such a long time, but Qi Li, on the other hand, was excited from thinking about being able to fight against the mysterious False Immortal Realm Cultivator.
"Since I can manage to stand against your flames, what do you think are the chances that I can fight against a False Immortal Realm Cultivator?"
Shaking her head towards this question which was directed towards her, Mo Ying said, "Zero."
"That low?"
"My flames might be strong, but I doubt if they could compare with a False Immortal Realm Cultivator."
"Is that so? But I still want to see if my body can take an attack from that expert."
Not saying anything else, Mo Ying looked towards Jian Xinyi who looked like she wanted to switch side and join the Yueliang Empire right away.
"Since you all already know how strong a False Immortal Realm Cultivator is, I don't need to inform you about how stupid it would be to fight against one."
"Luckily, we don't have to fight against that expert because the mysterious False Immortal Realm Cultivator will not be supporting the Yueliang Empire."
