Chapter 298 The Future is Full of Uncertainty
Daqin, Xianyang.
Ying Chen frowned slightly as he listened to Lu Bing's report.
These three great dynasties suffered considerable losses last time, so they shouldn't be launching another war for the time being.
But now, they have actually gathered their army and powerful warriors to attack the Great Wei Dynasty again, which is very illogical!
"Can we find out why they are behaving so unusually?"
Ying Chen looked at Lu Bing and asked.
"Some time ago, each of the three great imperial dynasties sent a contingent from the Mo Lan Domain to the Earth Spirit Domain adjacent to the Mo Lan Domain..."
"Since the Earthly Spirit Realm is the territory of the Spirit Clan, our Embroidered Uniform Guard spies cannot infiltrate it. Therefore, we have no idea what they did after they went in..."
"All we know is that they took many powerful figures with them when they left, perhaps with the support of the Earth Spirit Domain, which is why they attacked the Great Wei Dynasty again..."
Lu Bing said respectfully.
"How strong is this Earth Spirit Domain?"
Ying Chen asked.
"The Earth Spirit Domain is a large domain controlled by the Spirit Race, one of the most powerful races among all races. The Spirit Race is extremely xenophobic, and outsiders cannot survive within the Earth Spirit Domain. Therefore, among the surrounding large domains, we know the least about the Earth Spirit Domain, and we have no spies lurking within it..."
"We can only learn about the things concerning the Earthly Spirit Realm from outside the Earthly Spirit Realm..."
"According to the intelligence we have gathered, the Earth Spirit Domain is a unified large domain with only one power called the Earth Spirit Imperial Dynasty, which is suspected to have a Tribulation Transcending stage expert..."
Lu Bing recounted in detail the intelligence obtained by the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
Lu Bing was quite helpless regarding the Earthly Spirit Realm. He had sent his Imperial Guards, disguised as members of the Spirit Clan, to infiltrate the Earthly Spirit Realm, but the Spirit Clan, through some unknown means, had managed to accurately identify the Imperial Guards he sent out each time...
The Embroidered Uniform Guard also suffered heavy losses.
Over time, he stopped sending the Imperial Guards into the Earthly Spirit Realm, because no matter how many went, they would only be delivering food.
"Eldar?"
Ying Chen's brows furrowed even deeper.
He was familiar with the Jinyiwei's techniques of concealment and disguise; even someone two major realms higher than the Jinyiwei would not be able to easily see through them.
However, the Spirit Clan was able to see through the Jinyiwei's concealment, which shows that the Spirit Clan has a special method to distinguish between its own race and other races.
"I understand. You may leave now!"
Ying Chen waved his hand and said.
"I resign!"
Lu Bing bowed and then withdrew.
"Cao Zhengchun, summon Yuan Tiangang!"
Ying Chen gave instructions to Cao Zhengchun, who was standing to the side.
"Here!"
Cao Zhengchun bowed and immediately went to the Imperial Observatory.
Not long after, Cao Zhengchun returned with Yuan Tiangang.
"Your subject, Yuan Tiangang, Director of the Imperial Observatory, pays respects to Your Majesty!"
Yuan Tiangang bowed respectfully to Ying Chen.
"Minister Yuan, there's no need for such formalities. You surely know why I summoned you here, don't you?"
Ying Chen said to Yuan Tiangang.
Yuan Tiangang smiled slightly upon hearing Ying Chen's words, and then nodded.
"Is it because of the matter of the Mo Lan Domain, Your Majesty?"
Although Yuan Tiangang was asking a question, his tone was very confident.
Ying Chen chuckled and said, "As expected, nothing can be hidden from you..."
"Do you know what the situation is like this time?"
Upon hearing Ying Chen's words, Yuan Tiangang began to calculate with his hands.
A mysterious aura emanated from him, and mysterious runes began to appear, surrounding Yuan Tiangang.
Ying Chen watched this scene, even though it wasn't the first time he'd seen it.
However, every time I see him, I feel an extraordinary sense of novelty.
A moment later, Yuan Tiangang slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of stale air.
He clasped his hands in a fist salute to Ying Chen and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, none of the generals are in danger this time, but the Great Wei Dynasty is in danger..."
After hearing this, Ying Chen stroked his chin with his right hand.
Became thoughtful.
Seeing this, Yuan Tiangang stood still, saying nothing, and waited quietly.
After a moment, Ying Chen slowly asked, "Is there any chance for things to change?"
Yuan Tiangang nodded and said, "If our Great Qin does not intervene, the Great Wei Dynasty will definitely be destroyed this time, but once our Great Qin intervenes, the Great Wei Dynasty will have a glimmer of hope."
Yuan Tiangang paused for a moment, then continued, "Once the future is foreseen, it ceases to be accurate and becomes filled with endless possibilities. This is because we will formulate corresponding countermeasures based on future projections. Therefore, what I have calculated is only for reference and not absolute..."
Ying Chen nodded after hearing this.
This involves the power of spacetime regarding what will happen in the future.
He didn't quite understand, but he knew that the future was called the future because it hadn't happened yet.
Who can say for sure what will happen before it happens?
"Alright, I understand. You may go and rest now! Cao Zhengchun, go to my treasury and fetch some medicinal herbs for Minister Yuan..."
Ying Chen nodded, then spoke to Yuan Tiangang.
Yuan Tiangang had just expended a lot of spiritual energy. Although he was not completely exhausted, his body was weak, as could be seen from his complexion. Therefore, Ying Chen did not let him stay there any longer, but instead told him to go and rest, and asked Cao Zhengchun to fetch some spiritual medicine for him.
It should be noted that the spiritual herbs that Ying Chen could include in his treasure trove were all of very high grade.
"Your Majesty, I thank you. I take my leave now!"
Yuan Tiangang did not refuse. After thanking Cao Zhengchun, he left the Imperial Study.
"Somebody come!"
After they left, Ying Chen called out.
A member of the Imperial Guard hurriedly ran in from outside.
"Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
The Imperial Guard said respectfully.
"Send an order to Huo Qubing to immediately proceed to the Great Wei Dynasty in the Mo Lan Domain to support Meng Tian and his forces. Also, send orders to the other generals to lead their armies to the border between the Xuanxing Domain and the Mo Lan Domain, and await my command..."
Ying Chen gave the order.
"Here!"
After the Imperial Guard acknowledged the order, he immediately went to relay Ying Chen's command.
Ying Chen's order was quickly relayed.
Apart from Meng Tian and the other three who were already in the Wei Dynasty, all the generals in the Qin Dynasty received the order.
This includes Huo Qubing, who was handling affairs of the Huangfu Emperor's court.
