Soon, everyone began to get used to the days without Xia Tianming.
Just when Xia Feng thought the days would pass blandly, news arrived from the Rizhao Empire, crushing their spirits.
Perhaps Xia Tianming's breakthrough to Martial God previously disturbed the Heavenly Dao, allowing Yun Zhonghe, the first Cyan Emperor of the Rizhao Empire, to seize the opportunity for his breakthrough.
Just the day before yesterday, when Yun Zhonghe sensed a bottleneck, he immediately announced he would attempt a breakthrough to Martial God the day after tomorrow.
If he succeeded, he would march on the Imperial Capital of the Great Xia Empire the next day, demanding the entire empire be surrendered!
This morning, a messenger from the Rizhao Empire arrogantly arrived at the Great Xia Empire, demanding not only the return of previous compensations but also insisting that starting tomorrow, all citizens of the Great Xia Empire must wear Rizhao Empire's attire and adopt their customs!
