Chapitre 552: Chapter 393: The Emperor's Enlightenment, The Elusive Mountain Lord

A day had passed in the Celestial Court, but a year had gone by on the ground.

In the span of a year on earth, far too many things had happened.

Yu Dynasty Emperor Xu Qi led a mighty army, conquered the Tiger's Rest Pass with overwhelming force, and with the vigor of shattering dry woods and pulling out rotten weeds, breached the Capital City.

Xu Qi was fiercely leading his troops in a violent assault on the Wu Dynasty's Imperial Palace.
