The day marked the end of the Luopo Empire; within a single day, one-third of its cities were destroyed by Zhou Yan's territory.
Lord Odona had already lost count of how many times he had pleaded with the elder council of the Rhode family for reinforcements, only to receive the same answer: "Hold on a little longer."
Lord Odona was so infuriated he didn't know what to say. If they held on any longer, the entire Luopo Empire would be annihilated.
As more cities of the Luopo Empire fell, Lord Odona, already drowning in despair, finally couldn't bear it any longer. He drew the supreme sword symbolizing the Luopo Empire and plunged it into his own heart.
The following day, when the strong experts of the Rhode family arrived at the Luopo Empire, they found Lord Odona had committed suicide on the imperial throne of the Luopo Empire.
This stunned the Rhode family's experts. Upon understanding the current predicament of the Luopo Empire, they realized that the entire empire was as good as lost.
"Damn it, how could this happen? I thought Lord Odona was exaggerating, but I never imagined it was this serious!"
"Those damned elders, why didn't they explain the situation sooner? Didn't they understand the gravity of the Luopo Empire's crisis?"
"The information they gave us was completely different from the current situation. They're all old scoundrels, damned old geezers!"
"They didn't take it seriously at all. This is a nation, the most important place for our Rhode family!"
These experts immediately reported the situation to the elder council, expressing their severe dissatisfaction.
"Oh, Lord Odona actually committed suicide!"
"How is that possible? The Luopo Empire only has one-third of its cities left!"
"Heavens, how could things have come to this!"
"I told you long ago that Lord Odona wasn't joking, but you all refused to believe me. You didn't even take those videos he sent seriously."
"We didn't expect things to be this dire!"
"You will bear immense responsibility for the demise of the Luopo Empire!"
Regardless, the Rhode family's experts had to eliminate Zhou Yan's territory. Hundreds of lords arrived a thousand miles away from Zhou Yan's territory, summoned their territories, and dispatched countless experts to form an army to attack Zhou Yan.
Countless sky warships, battle ships, and airships, carrying numerous experts and soldiers, headed towards Zhou Yan's territory.
They were confident that this time they would definitely destroy Zhou Yan's territory, their confidence in this operation was immense.
A fire dragon streaked towards them. The Rhode family's experts saw it and were not flustered.
"Order all warships, battle ships, and airships to attack and eliminate that fire dragon."
"Let them know the might of our Rhode family."
"We are not like that loser Lord Odona; we will surely eliminate the enemy."
The Rhode family's experts were extremely confident in their weapons, and they didn't believe the fire dragon before them could cause them any harm.
Only five demigod experts, watching the approaching attack, began to frown. Then they said, "Not good, quickly evade! This attack is extremely dangerous and terrifying; let's not confront it head-on!"
"It's too late. Look in the other direction, several fire dragons are attacking."
"Damn it, are they true deities? How can they emit such powerful attacks?"
"We should escape first."
"That's exactly what I was thinking!"
The five demigods simultaneously activated their pseudo-divine artifacts, transforming into beams of light, and quickly fled the warship formation.
They looked back and saw the warship formation unleashing concentrated attacks on the fire dragons, with terrifying and dense volleys falling upon them.
But the fire dragon was unharmed and continued to charge towards the warship formation as if nothing had happened, leaving the experts within the warships dumbfounded.
They wanted to escape, but the fire dragon gave them no opportunity. They could only continue to attack and activated the warships' defensive shields.
Subsequently, the fire dragons devoured these warships, engulfing them in a world of flames, and then erupted with terrifying energy explosions.
Warships, sky airships, and battle ships were all detonated, and countless experts perished within the fire dragons.
"What kind of enemy have we encountered? This is too strong, we can't resist at all. Let's go back."
"That makes sense; this is not something we can deal with."
"Do you feel anything?"
"Look up at the sky!"
The five demigods looked up and saw a terrifying sight: a giant mountain descended upon them, crushing them to the ground.
"Boom!"
The five demigod experts, relying on the defense of their pseudo-divine artifacts, barely managed to cling to their lives, but their condition was dire. Each of them was severely wounded.
Just as they were about to continue their escape with the remaining soldiers, they looked up at the sky again. An ice phoenix flew over their heads, then flew back, and finally descended towards them.
"Oh, damn it!"
"Bang!"
The five demigods were turned into ice sculptures by the ice phoenix, and then died as the ice sculptures shattered.
The situation here quickly reached the Rhode family's elder council. They dispatched another group of experts, but the outcome was the same.
They wanted to negotiate, but were annihilated as soon as they appeared.
The Rhode family fell silent. They dared not send anyone else, and could only abandon the area where the Luopo Empire was located.
Three days later, Zhou Yan had already taken away all the wealth and resources of the Luopo Empire.
Then, Zhou Yan continued his offensive towards the next location of the Rhode family.
The entire elder council of the Rhode family understood that Zhou Yan was targeting their family directly; this was no accident.
After deliberation, the Rhode family decided to exhaust all their strength to destroy Zhou Yan's territory.
They dispatched all the lords of the Rhode family, including all the experts from the Lord Continent.
This was an extremely powerful and terrifying army.
The Rhode family believed this would be enough to destroy Zhou Yan.
The great battle erupted, and the fighting began immediately, ending in a very short period.
Zhou Yan's territory's defense towers unleashed their attacks, covering and eliminating everyone from the Rhode family.
The Rhode family was dumbfounded, unable to believe their eyes. This was not a battle; it was utter annihilation.
This was a one-sided affair. What kind of attack was this?
Were these true deities?
Only true deities could possess such terrifying and destructive power.
The Rhode family truly had no power to stop the opponent. They could only watch helplessly as their vast family power was continuously destroyed, vanished, and obliterated by the opponent, with no ability to resist.
Within half a month, the once arrogant Rhode family's entire foundation on the Lord Continent was destroyed by Zhou Yan.
The Rhode family was completely annihilated.
Zhou Yan then set his sights on the next target.
