Li Yu stood at the very front of the army. He did not move, and the generals behind him did not dare to lead the army forward.

They just stood outside and looked at the city shrouded in ice.

The soldiers, generals, and members of the Knights behind them were all discussing. When they talked about the scene in front of them, there was an unconcealable fear in the depths of their eyes.

They had always heard that the gods had boundless power, but they did not know the exact details. No matter how much they heard, there would always be a trace of doubt in the depths of their hearts. Moreover, the scene in front of them was caused by the gods, so there was no need for any explanation.

The originally incomparably lively city, the capital of the Kingdom of Fire, with a population of over ten million, had now turned into a state of deathly stillness.

Everything had been completely frozen.

One could see the panic on the guards' faces on the city walls. The pedestrians who were originally walking on the streets suddenly froze. The thieves who were stealing, the rich children who were pointing at the commoners and cursing, and the soldiers patrolling the city.

Everyone was doing their own thing, but in an instant, the god's punishment descended, and endless cold currents swept through the entire city.

In an instant, everything froze, and the expressions on their faces didn't even have time to change.

These people stood where they were and didn't notice anything. In their ignorance, they sank into eternal darkness.

It was the same outside the city. Presumably, the royal family should be even more so. Because the cold currents had erupted from the royal family, and so the outside of the city was affected.

A general who had been skeptical before asked with a trembling voice, "Your highness, is this... is this the divine punishment of an archaic God?"

In his heart, he placed himself in the capital before him. In comparison, he was even more terrified.

If it were him, he wouldn't be any different from the civilians inside. He would only lose his life unknowingly.

This was not a terrifying divine power that ordinary people could reach.

The general felt regret and fear for his previous suspicious attitude. Fortunately, nothing happened. If it did, he would not have the chance to regret it.

"That's right. This is only one of the God's punishments. There are still some tricks that have not been used."

Li Yu nodded slightly.

The commander of the Knights went forward and knocked on the ice. He said, "According to the hardness of the ice and the surrounding environment, this kind of ice would not melt for half a year. Its hardness is comparable to steel."

"If it can last until winter, it might take even longer."

At this point, the commander swallowed a mouthful of saliva. His expression was very unnatural.

He had seen the power of a god in the forbidden land of gods, but he had underestimated it in the end. The ice and the poisonous fog were not on the same level, but no matter which one it was, it was not something he could resist.

He felt even more reverence towards the archaic God.

Hearing the Knight commander's explanation, the crown prince Li Yu's eyes slightly trembled.

"Gods aren't joking. If they say they want to destroy the Kingdom of Fire, then they really want to destroy the Kingdom of Fire. It's just a matter of a sentence."

To be honest, at the very beginning, he had made the wish to destroy the Kingdom of Fire to the archaic God. But he only wanted to destroy the Kingdom of Fire's army and kill the officials and generals. He did not want to turn the entire kingdom into an ice city, nor had he wanted to kill all the civilians inside.

However, it was clear that the archaic gods had misunderstood his meaning. They thought that destroying the Kingdom of Fire meant that they wanted to kill all the living beings in it. Only then could they be considered to have destroyed the Kingdom of Fire.

It could also be that to the god, the power released was insignificant, but they weren't able to block it.

This was the power of the gods. It was unstoppable.

However, when he was in the Forbidden Land of gods, he began to make a wish. If he made the wrong one, it might bring endless disaster to the Bauhinia Kingdom.

The wishes the gods granted weren't that easy to make. This was a double-edged sword. If he wasn't careful, not only would he not gain any benefits, he might even injure himself first.

Thinking of this, Li Yu's respect for the ancient gods deepened.

His faith had also reached the level of a loyal believer. Before this, he had only been a shallow believer.

The commander of the Knights turned around to look at the army. He discovered that the bodies of the soldiers without transcendents were already trembling. They couldn't stand the cold here, so he went forward to ask. This was also to remind him to look behind.

"Your Highness, what should we do next? Enter the city?"

Li Yu looked back, he gave the order, "Generals, follow me into the city to see the fate of the Fire King. The rest of the soldiers should retreat 30 miles and wait for the order. The soldiers who can withstand the cold here can also follow and watch. It will be beneficial for them to understand more about the power of the gods."

"Yes, Your Highness."

The generals did not dare to disobey and bowed their heads.

Li Yu walked in front while the generals were half a step behind. Behind him were 30,000 extraordinary soldiers. The rest of the soldiers were all ordinary people and could not withstand the cold air inside.

Walking into the streets of the fire capital, they were surrounded by lifelike ice sculptures. They were frozen to death, but there was no pain on their faces.

That was the terrifying power of not being able to react in time.

Walking from the outside of the city to the center of the city, rather than witnessing the fate of the Fire King, it would be better to let the extraordinary soldiers and generals maintain their reverence towards the gods.

They walked all the way until they came to a stop at the location of the Kingdom of Fire's royal family.

The civilians outside were weak, so they did not have any reaction when danger arrived. This was not the case for the royal family.

From here, one could clearly see the Inferno King's panicked and unwilling eyes. It was as if he wanted to take something from his bosom. However, halfway through, he was frozen to death by the cold air and kept his hand extended.

Behind him, the officials and generals of the fire kingdom all had terrified expressions on their faces. The instant they turned around and wanted to escape, they died.

The scene was silent, but this silence brought about a great shock.

Li Yu expressionlessly walked in front of the Fire King. It was the man in front of him who had ordered the attack on the Bauhinia Kingdom, killing his father and almost all of his family.

After looking at it for a while, he waved his hand. "Bring him back to the Bauhinia Kingdom. Destroy the rest of the ice sculptures."

"Generals, lead the soldiers to take over the entire territory of the Kingdom of Fire. Each city has at least 30,000 soldiers stationed there. Bring this territory under the rule of our Bauhinia Kingdom."

"Yes, your highness the Crown Prince."

The generals' expressions were incomparably excited. Expanding the territory and leaving their names in history books was a great achievement that the previous kings of the Bauhinia Kingdom had never achieved. Now that it had been accomplished by the crown prince, Li Yu, it was truly inconceivable.

"Also, there's one more thing. Have the craftsman department carve the statue of the ancient god as soon as possible. All the citizens of the Bauhinia Kingdom must believe in the ancient god and become loyal believers of the ancient god."

"Commander, go personally and keep an eye on it. You absolutely can not allow the statue to have the slightest flaw just because of the speed."

When Li Yu mentioned this, he specifically pointed out the commander of the Knights.
