Chapter 14183 The Water King Arrives in Person
This news was like a bombshell, instantly causing an uproar in the world of Dazhen, like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, stirring up huge waves!
Countless people are discussing and speculating about the reasons behind the Qin family's actions.
Some believe that the Qin family saw the rise of the Batian Empire and wanted to take this opportunity to seek protection.
Some people believe that the Qin family has ulterior motives and wants to gain a higher status and more benefits in the Batian Empire.
However, the Qin family's submission was of great significance.
This signifies that the power and territory of the Overlord Empire have expanded several times in an instant. The already powerful Overlord Empire is now even more formidable, attracting the attention of other forces.
The Qin family's submission was like the first domino to fall, triggering a series of chain reactions.
Just three days later, the Winged Clan, who resided on the border of the Great Town World and were renowned for their innate wings and bloodline supernatural powers, followed suit and officially announced:
The Feathered Clan has submitted to the Overlord Empire!
The Feathered Clan is a mysterious and powerful race. They are born with wings and can soar freely in the sky at great speeds.
Moreover, they possess unique bloodline supernatural abilities, each with immense power that makes them difficult to defend against.
The submission of the Feathered Clan undoubtedly greatly enhanced the strength of the Overlord Empire, making the situation in the entire Great Town World even more complex and delicate.
Other forces began to re-examine the Overlord Empire, filled with awe and worry, wondering what choices other forces would make next.
Two top powers—the Qin family, with its profound foundation and numerous experts, and the mysterious Feather Clan, with its unique bloodline abilities—have successively defected to the Overlord Empire. This series of earth-shattering actions is like a fierce storm that has swept through the entire Great Town World, causing a dramatic change in the already turbulent situation.
The Overlord Empire, at this moment, was like the blazing sun in the sky, shining brightly and so dazzling that it was impossible to look directly at it.
Its fame spread like thunder throughout every corner of the Great Town, inspiring awe wherever it went.
Under this powerful pressure, countless small and medium-sized forces were filled with fear and unease, as if they were small boats in a storm, in danger of being swallowed up at any moment.
They began to re-examine their position and carefully consider their relationship with the Overlord Empire and other forces.
They once thought they could find a stable backer in this complex world, and profit from the "three-way standoff" situation.
However, the seemingly stable "three-way balance" has now completely collapsed.
The Holy Temple, which once rivaled the Overlord Empire, still maintains a certain level of strength and prestige. However, under the Overlord Empire's rapid expansion, it has to be on guard and shrink its sphere of influence in order to protect itself.
The alliance of the four major powers had long since fallen apart due to the defection of the Qin family and the Feather Clan. The various forces were suspicious of each other and fought their own battles, making it difficult to form an effective resistance force.
Now, in the entire Great Town world, only the Water Tribe remains, like an isolated island in the vast ocean, facing the behemoth that is the Overlord Empire alone, and has yet to express its opinion.
The aquatic race has always been known for its mystery and unpredictability. They live in water and possess unique water-based techniques and powerful aquatic warriors.
Their headquarters is hidden beneath a deep lake, surrounded by various mysterious formations and restrictions, making it difficult to uncover its secrets.
The eyes of the entire Great Town world were focused like spotlights on the silent headquarters of the Water Clan.
Spies from various factions were dispatched, lying in wait around the aquatic headquarters, closely monitoring their every move and awaiting their final decision.
Because of the Water Clan's decision, it is likely to become a key factor influencing the future direction of the entire Great Town world.
……
Three days later, on a calm afternoon as still as a lake.
The sunlight lazily spilled onto the tall and ancient city gate of Batian City, adding a touch of warmth to the mottled city wall.
At the city gate, people came and went, and the cries of vendors and the laughter of pedestrians mingled together, creating a lively yet peaceful scene.
Just then, the previously calm space began to ripple slightly, as if an invisible force was stirring the surrounding air.
Immediately afterwards, a slender figure appeared at the city gate without warning.
She was dressed in a simple, dark black outfit that clung tightly to her body, outlining her graceful and agile figure.
Her long hair was casually tied back, with a few stray strands fluttering gently in the wind, adding to her carefree and unrestrained air.
Her face was fair and delicate, like a piece of warm and smooth jade, expressionless, as if nothing in the world could stir her emotions.
Only his eyes, clear and bright like the most brilliant stars in the night sky, seemed to see through the essence of all things, carrying a sense of profundity and majesty.
She walked slowly towards the city gate with light yet steady steps, each step seemingly containing endless rhythm and power.
The surrounding crowd couldn't help but turn their heads, secretly wondering about the identity of this mysterious woman.
Those well-informed individuals were immediately startled upon seeing her appearance, for they knew that this woman was none other than the ruler of the Water Tribe—the Water King.
Not far behind her, ten black-clad figures, like ghosts, silently blended into the shadows and appeared without warning.
Their figures were tall and straight, yet strangely twisted, as if they had blended into the surrounding darkness.
Each person wore a simple, ancient-style longsword at their waist, the scabbard engraved with mysterious and intricate patterns, seemingly telling tales of past vicissitudes and battles.
These men in black had their auras extremely restrained, like a turbulent undercurrent hidden beneath a calm lake surface. On the surface, they appeared calm, but in reality, they contained boundless power.
They seemed not to exist in this space at all, out of place with everything around them, yet perfectly hidden within it.
However, that hidden sharpness and deathly stillness, like a tangible pressure, permeated the air.
The guards near the city gate, whose cultivation levels were slightly higher, instantly sensed this strange aura. Their scalps tingled, and the hairs on the back of their necks stood on end, as if they were being stared at by an invisible venomous snake. A deep fear spread from the bottom of their hearts.
They instinctively gripped their weapons, watching the ten figures in black warily, yet dared not make a move.
The Water Queen did not stop; her steps were light yet firm, each one seemingly touching the hearts of everyone present.
She was like an envoy from a mysterious world, with an otherworldly air, walking straight into the city.
