Chapter 427: The Flames of war died out before it properly burn

In the skies of Gong City;

Lan Ju was in a fierce battle against Jinlong. The latter was in the form of a gold dragon while the former was using a weapon that looks like the imperial Phoenix bow, also known as the Bow of the Shangs.

The Imperial Phoenix Bow is first used by the Shang Dynasty's founder to overthrow the Xia Dynasty and is passed to one emperor and then the next.

Emperor Shang lent it to Wu Weibao/Lan Ju to defeat the gold dragon but Mark has entirely different plans for the weapon. 

It cannot be subdued and Mark doesn't want to subdue it or erase its will either. He intends to destroy the Shang Dynasty's pride.

But, for the weapon to fall into his hands for good, he would have to stage Lan Ju's death. 

And it should happen in front of the soldiers of the empire so that he would have enough witnesses for the weapon getting looted by the dragon and their morale also gets reduced in the process.
