Lord Came Back From The Battlefield

“Mom, Grandma and Peak Master have gone to the capital!” Tasha exclaimed.

“They went to the capital? Is there something important?” Billy asked, slightly surprised.

“Young Master, do you remember a few years ago when you sealed the Northfortia dragon vein?” Adam looked at Billy and asked.

“Yes, I remember!” Billy nodded and then asked again, “Is Northfortia causing trouble again?”

A few years ago, Northfortia tried to control this world by submitting to the Blood and Devil Sects. After returning from the Forbidden Ruins Space, Billy, in a fit of anger, took Casey and others to Northfortia. As a result, all high-level martial artists above the Divine Realm in Northfortia perished, and Northfortia’s martial power regressed by decades. Moreover, Billy severed Northfortia’s dragon vein and set up a barrier on Dragon Vein Mountain. That barrier could only be broken by someone with at least Holy Realm cultivation, so Northfortia was powerless to repair the dragon vein.

“Due to the damaged dragon vein, Northfortia has not developed well in recent years, and its national strength has declined sharply,” Adam responded.

“In the past year, Northfortia has continuously sent people to visit Glavale, hoping we would lift the barrier. However, Emperor Greenleaf and the Prime Minister have not agreed.”

“And then?” Billy pressed.

“In the past few days, Northfortia invited the core members of ten Western countries and ten Southeastern countries to Glavale,” Adam continued.

“It is understood that some people in Northfortia’s team come from sects in the Forbidden Ruins Space, probably invited to bolster their courage. Additionally, twenty countries, including Aquilandia, submitted visit documents upon hearing the news, which Emperor Greenleaf approved directly.”

“So, the capital has been bustling these days. Representatives from about forty top-ranked countries globally have arrived, most of them led by their monarchs.”

“Is Northfortia planning to use force?” Harleen frowned slightly.

“They might have the intention but probably not the courage!” someone nearby interjected.

“With Mrs. Stuart, Peak Master, and Emperor Greenleaf’s current skills, even considering those from the Forbidden Ruins Space, no one can match them. They likely don’t dare to use force.”

“However, with so many people coming this time, Glavale cannot be too tough; otherwise, there might be chaos.”

“Apart from Northfortia, what is the attitude of the twenty invited countries?” Harleen continued to ask.

“In recent years, Glavale has risen strongly and left others far behind. Other countries surely have thoughts about it but lack the courage to openly challenge us,” Adam said.

“This time, with Northfortia taking the lead, they are here partly to join the excitement and partly to seek opportunities.”

“How far has the situation progressed?” Billy asked.

“Representatives from forty-one countries started arriving in Glavale two days ago and only finished arriving today. Formal talks haven’t started yet; according to the schedule, they should begin this afternoon,” Adam responded.

“Very well!” Billy’s eyes narrowed slightly.

After speaking, he looked at Harleen. “Harleen, stay with Tasha and my parents at Ether Mountain. I’ll head to the capital first!”

“Do you want me to go with you?” Harleen asked.

“No need, it’s just a small matter!” Billy smiled. “Spend more time with Tasha.”

“Alright!” Harleen nodded.

She wasn’t too worried; in her eyes now, these people from Northfortia were not even worth considering as ants.

Then Billy bid farewell to everyone and flew towards the capital.

At his current speed, it would only take twenty minutes or so from Ether Mountain to the capital.

Meanwhile…

About ten kilometers from the inner courtyard of the capital, a massive training ground was bustling with noise and excitement.

On one side of the training ground stood a grand stage resembling a small palace with nine intricately carved chairs.

Emperor Greenleaf, Eliza Rice, Stephanie Stuart, Urban Woolery, Edie Fennimore, Ernest Shepherd, Otis Hum, Milo Guzman, and Amir Donald were all seated on stage.

Below the stage were forty-one camps, each with a few chairs at the front for key personnel from each country and their entourages behind them.

The total number of people from forty-one countries was roughly forty thousand.

Around the training ground were nearly ten thousand guards from the Central Sky Office.

“Lynn, tell us why Northfortia invited so many people to Glavale this time,” Urban Woolery looked at Northfortia’s ruler and spoke calmly.

“Mr. Woolery, you should know very well why we are here!” Lynn responded loudly after organizing his thoughts.

“In recent years, Glavale has developed rapidly. Glavale people are seen everywhere around the world. Nearly half of global energy is controlled by Glavale.”

“Other countries feel pressured. We are here hoping Glavale can show mercy and give us some room to survive.”

“Haha, Northfortia always has this attitude!” Urban Woolery responded.

“First of all, Glavale cooperates with host countries when extracting energy resources. We provide technology and equipment while hosts provide manpower; we share the results.”

“What you call ‘not giving other countries room to survive’ reflects your own past behavior. Please don’t falsely accuse Glavale!”

“Mr. Prime Minister…” Northfortia’s second-in-command began to speak.

“I haven’t finished!” Urban Woolery interrupted him sternly.

“In recent years, countries closely cooperating with Glavale have seen significant improvements in their comprehensive national strength!”

“Many here today have benefited from this; you can ask them if what I say is true!”

“No need to ask; Aquilandia is a prime example!” Aquilandia’s ruler Fekochi spoke loudly.

“In recent years, Glavale’s contributions to the world are evident and undeniable!”

“Especially for some poor countries; under Glavale’s assistance, their citizens’ happiness index has increased several times over!”Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

“Ruler Fekochi, Aquilandia cannot represent the entire world; you…” Northfortia’s second-in-command continued.

“Aquilandia can’t represent the world; can Northfortia?” At this moment, Emperor Greenleaf interrupted him sternly.

“For decades, Northfortia has acted as if it ruled the world-stirring up trouble everywhere, interfering in other countries’ internal affairs, profiting from wars!”

“Look at what kind of situation the world was in back then?”

“The entire planet was like a large battlefield with constant wars; tens of thousands died each year from war and hunger!”

“And look at these recent years; apart from a few Western countries fighting due to internal conflicts, how many places globally are still at war?”

As he spoke, a powerful aura emanated from him.

Then his sharp gaze swept through the camps of ten Western countries; those caught by his gaze couldn’t meet his eyes and involuntarily lowered their heads.

“And you few countries-calling you ungrateful jerks is an understatement!” Emperor Greenleaf continued as he looked at Oriana and several surrounding countries of East Peak Nation.

“Throughout history which of your countries hasn’t benefited from Glavale? Without Glavale would you be where you are today?”

“When Northfortia dominated the world you sacrificed your sovereignty just to be their dogs provoking Glavale everywhere.”

“Even now when Northfortia is struggling you still willingly become their slaves-it’s ingrained in your bones!”

“A few years ago Billy should have wiped your countries off the map!”
