Time flew by swiftly.
In the blink of an eye, several days had passed.
After Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family finally resigned itself to its fate, agreeing to the proposal of military aid put forward by the Great Flame Dynasty.
The large army that the Great Flame Dynasty had readied.
At this moment, finally succeeded in entering the territories of Xunyang Prefecture.
Furthermore, in the shortest amount of time.
They had taken control of the territories under the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family one after another.
And Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family, in response to this, chose to turn a blind eye.
Such occurrences were foreseeable when they agreed to the military support of the Great Flame Dynasty.
Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family had long anticipated them.
However, what Ke Family hadn’t expected...
Was that the Great Flame Dynasty would be so eager to take control of all those territories once belonging to the Ke Family.
From then on, in the Da Feng Dynasty, the power of the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family completely declined.
The influence of the Great Flame Dynasty was rapidly expanding.
Meanwhile, since all those territories originally under Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family had now become part of the Great Flame Dynasty.
Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family...
Now one should say the Great Flame Dynasty’s assault on Wan Shan Prefecture became even more frantic, with the frequency of attacks gradually increasing. Find adventures at empire
"Family Head, in just a short period of time."
"The people from the Great Flame Dynasty have easily captured those territories that were originally part of our Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family."
"The control over the military has also been effortlessly seized by the people from the Great Flame Dynasty."
"Even, this city where our Ke Family resides..."
"Has been renamed Great Flame!!!"
Xunyang Prefecture, Ke Family’s ancestral home.
Inside the room where the Family Head was.
At this time, Ke Xiaowen, the current Family Head of the Ke Family, sat solemnly in the seat of honor.
And that Great Elder of the Ke Family.
Was standing somewhat helplessly at the moment.
He slightly raised his head, speaking softly to Family Head Ke Xiaowen in front of him.
"It’s something we expected..."
Ke Xiaowen glanced at the Great Elder before him, sighed softly, and then said in a low voice, "Although the actions of the Great Flame Dynasty were all within the scope of our expectations, what I still didn’t anticipate is how eagerly the Great Flame Dynasty would take control of all the lands that belonged to our Ke Family and gain complete control over the military."
"Even our Ke Family’s city, the Great Flame Dynasty is not willing to spare..."
"Now, the influence of our Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family has completely collapsed."
"Our survival now entirely depends on the decision of the Great Flame Dynasty."
"Previously, I always believed that introducing the power of the Great Flame Dynasty, obtaining the help of the Great Flame Dynasty, was the only way for our Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family to survive."
"But now it seems..."
"Whether this is a path to survival, a road to the future, or a path leading to obliteration."
"Even I am starting to lose clarity..."
Above the seat of honor,
Ke Xiaowen, the current Family Head of the Ke Family, couldn’t help but say so with a bitter smile.
Upon hearing these words, that Great Elder of the Ke Family seemed to have nothing else to offer but a resigned sigh.
The Ke Family had controlled the lands of three prefectures for such a long time.
Although their foundation was still there,
if the Great Flame Dynasty was determined to annihilate the Ke Family, they would still find it hard to escape death.
The current situation depended entirely on the Great Flame Dynasty’s decision.
It might seem somewhat ludicrous to entrust the life and death of a family to others.
However, the Ke Family seemed to really have no other options now.
Either the Ke Family would face a slow demise,
Or they would put everything on the line and risk everything.
Betting that the Great Flame Dynasty would not want to waste its living forces and bother eliminating the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family, who posed no significant threat to them.
About a month had passed.
During this month, the Great Flame Dynasty’s control over the territories that belonged to the Ke Family
Had gradually become stronger as time passed.
Those armies already belonging to the Great Flame Dynasty had continuously entered the territories that were once part of Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family.
The troops reached the outskirts of Wan Shan Prefecture,
Launching one frenzied attack after another against it.
However, the defensive forces of Wan Shan Prefecture remained strong enough.
No matter how fierce or mad the attacks from outside Wan Shan Prefecture were,
The land of the prefecture stood unmoving and unshaken like a mountain.
Even though, sometimes,
Due to various reasons, the Great Flame Dynasty would capture one or two, maybe three cities,
Their achievements seemed to be limited just to that.
If they desired to go further, to completely take over the whole land of Wan Shan Prefecture,
Unless the Great Flame Dynasty was willing to recklessly stack up soldiers’ lives,
They seemingly could not achieve a significant outcome in a short span of time.
As for the Xunyang Prefecture Ke Family?
The Ke Family of today, though having lost all territories and control over all military forces,
In return for these sacrifices, now gained peace and tranquility.
The Ke Family of today need no longer worry about their own safety, nor be troubled by the siege of the two great forces of the Luo Family and the White Lotus Temple in the White Lotus Prefecture.
