Chapter 3943
Sienna and Xerxes were well aware of the Dark World's rules and knew that they had to offer tributes to the Nine
Heavens to secure their reign over the Malevolent Land. Thus, they sent many treasures and resources to the Nine
Heavens to sustain the Malevolent Land’s stability. Unfortunately, several forces in the Nine Heavens refused to
grant them the peace they desired.
Sienna sat in the highest seat in the main hall of Mount Malevolent Moon, wearing a black dress. Her face was
solemn. Meanwhile, Xerxes stood beside her like a bodyguard.
"It's best to surrender, Lord Sienna."
"I agree. Thaine Machula is too powerful. He's a Ninth Stage Lord, with many followers in the same stage.
Moreover, he also has a considerable amount of Lords at his command. How would we resist him?”
"I suggest we give in to their demands. There's no shame in surrendering in the Dark World. If we submit to Thaine,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwe’ll be inducted into his forces and it'll benefit our development in the Dark World."
The Lords in the hall began expressing their opinion and the majority of them tried to persuade Sienna to
surrender.
Sienna’s lips drew tight at their remarks. She and Xerxes had gone through many hurdles to conquer the
Malevolent Land. How could they relinquish it to another so easily?
Sienna looked at Xerxes beside her and asked. "What do you think, Xerxes? If you decide to fight, I'll protect Mount
Malevolent Moon and our territory with my life.
Xerxes also wore a grim expression. Thaine's forces were far too strong, and Malevolent Land's strength was not
enough to resist them. However, Thaine was a tyrant and Xerxes was reluctant to surrender the territory to him.
He looked at Sienna and declared. "Thaine has crossed the line with his cruelty. He's a despicable person. I’d rather
die in battle than surrender to him. If I have to die, I’ll go down protecting Mount Malevolent Moon."
"Alright. I understand your rationale." Sienna nodded.
Sienna stood up, looked at the Lords in the hall, and said, " This battle will determine Mount Malevolent Moon’s fate.
Unfortunately, we have almost no chance of winning against our opponents. If anyone wishes to leave, I won't fault
you for it. Those that choose to stay, we shall defend this place to our last breath."
Sienna's voice resounded in the hall. Everyone in the hall exchanged glances with each other after her speech.
They would be charging into the deaths if they chose to oppose Thaine. Ultimately, they cherished their lives more.
"It's not that I’m unwilling to go down with Mount Malevolent Moon. Thaine is just too powerful. I'm sorry, Lord
Sienna and Lord Xerxes."
At that moment, a Fifth Stage Lord stepped forward and chose not to fight.
"Count me out as well."
"Me too."
After the first person gave in, many followed suit. In just a short moment, ninety percent of the Lords in the hall
chose to avoid battle. Only a few staunch followers of Sienna and Xerxes decided to stay behind.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMany Lords left Mount Malevolent Moon, leaving only a dozen Lords remaining in the hall.
"Good."
Sienna looked at the remaining people and said, "It won't be easy for them to take over Mount Malevolent Moon.
Even if we're going to die, we must make Thaine suffer."
Xerxes also stood up, and a powerful and spirited aura erupted from his body. Then, he summoned a Chaotic
Treasure.
"Everyone, hear my command! Attack!!!"
"Attack!!!"
Loud chants came from Mount Malevolent Moon, shattering the void above the area. The protective formation
around Mount Malevolent Moon dispersed, and tens of thousands of soldiers from the Dark Army charged forward
to fight their enemies.
At that moment, a middle-aged man in black armor approached from the enemy's army. He pointed his sword at
Mount Malevolent Moon and shouted, "Sienna, Xerxes,
surrender to me, and I'll promise not to hurt anyone!"
Thaine's threat cut through the air.
