Chapter 2567
James traveled at full speed without stopping for a moment's rest. He quickly flew out of the city and was out of
Sangria's territory in less than five days.
After crossing the Southern Fortress, he reached a primeval forest which was in a neutral region that did not belong
to any country.
James had nowhere to go, so he found a mountain with an amazing view of the primeval forest and built a wooden
house for himself to stay in.
After James settled down, he began to devote all his concentration into cultivating. He absorbed the surrounding
Empyrean Spiritual Energy to enhance and strengthen his Yogacara.
While he was cultivating, the Korinthian Army had already traveled down from Yantargh Canyon and invaded
Sangria.
Millions of troops raided the country and upheld a Scorched Earth Policy. They would take everything they could, kill
anyone who resisted, and burn things down so nothing remained.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSangria was a country full of women. When the troops entered the city, they began rampantly looting and
plundering the city. Eventually, Sangria's civilians were subjugated and enslaved by their oppressors.
Meanwhile, the Empress was listening to her council’s reports within Sangria Palace.
"Your Majesty, the Korinthian Army has already broken through Yantargh Canyon and has taken over Macchia City.
Macchia City has already fallen to our enemies, forcing our troops to retreat. At this rate, the Korinthian Army will
reach the Imperial Capital in less than a month."
Xianna received a constant stream of bad news.
As the country's Empress, her every decision would affect the lives of countless people.
"Your Majesty, you must make a decision soon."
"There are only two options open for us, Your Majesty. We either surrender to Korinth or ally with Wushua. Only
through a political betrothal will we be able to join forces with Wushua and stop Korinth."
The officials expressed their opinions.
Xianna sat at the highest seat of the council and was lost in thought.
After a while, she ordered, "Pass on the order! Deploy our country's entire army in Sangria's defense! There's a
curse on our country, so Korinth’s troops can't stay here for too long. As long as we can stall for time, they'll have
to retreat eventually."
"Please reconsider, Your Majesty. Even if Korinth retreats for now, they can always regroup and strike again. This
will keep repeating, and we'll just be delaying the inevitable."
Xianna stood up and said firmly, "Our country has prevailed for ages. I'll never surrender to the enemy, and I won't
rely on help from other countries. Even if I must die, I'll go down here in Sangria! Pass down the order to the three
armies! Prepare to set off immediately and give our lives to resist our enemy!"
Xianna issued an absolute order.
Throughout history, Sangria had been conquered several times.
However, none of her ancestors surrendered and all chose to fight to their deaths.
In remembering their brave attempts, she resolved to not throw in the towel either.
Following Xianna's order, all of Sangria's soldiers departed to fend off their enemies.
Afterward, the country summoned all the female cultivators who were not soldiers to form a militia.
On the other hand, those with weaker cultivation bases were asked to evacuate immediately.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe Sangria Army suffered tragic losses, and the country was thrown into chaos. Some of the country's civilians
began to flee in panic. In just a few days, more than 10,000,000 women had fled to their neighboring country,
Wushua.
Fortunately, the army's efforts to defend the country with their lives were not in vain, and they temporarily forced a
retreat from the Korinthian Army.
20 days later, the Korinthian Army had no choice but to withdraw from Sangria's territory and regroup in Yantargh
Canyon.
Sangria's curse was infamous throughout Galileo, and Korinth's chancellor did not want the Korinthian Army to take
any risks,
After the Korinthian Army withdrew, the war-torn Sangria was granted a temporary respite.
In Sangria Palace's hall, another national meeting was taking place.
"Your Majesty, the Korinthian Army has retreated to Yantargh Canyon."
"Good." After hearing the report, Xianna’s face finally lit up in delight.
She issued another order, "Relay my order that our forces will enter Macchia City and defend it with everything
we’ve got! The Korinthian Army won't dare to stay in our country and can’t sustain themselves here long term.
They'll eventually retreat and lose if we keep holding our ground."
