Chapter 167 Zhao Xin's Great Victory Return
On the other side, Zhao Xin finally ended his war of annihilation. The main reason was that building the Jingguan (a mound of skulls) took too much time; otherwise, he could have returned to the capital three days ago.
Gazing upon the crystal-clear, jade-like tower constructed from countless human skulls, Zhao Xin felt a surge of pride. Although some unexpected events occurred during the process, the mission was ultimately completed successfully, and the Sakura Kingdom was destroyed.
Fortunately, the Palace Master arrived in time, otherwise the Celestial Palace would have suffered a great loss. They don't know how so many triangles appeared on Earth; they were almost wiped out.
He had originally planned to use this achievement to gain an opportunity to upgrade his genes, but now it seems that he's lucky if he's not punished, since his negligence almost caused the Immortal Palace to suffer huge losses.
"Let's pack up and go home."
Zhao Xin glanced at his masterpiece of the past few days, then at his brothers and sisters around him, before turning around and getting into his shuttle.
The other members of the Super Soldier Squad followed suit, taking out their own shuttles from the dark dimension and following behind Zhao Xin. As for the elven soldiers, their wings were sufficient for flight, and they were quite fast, so they naturally didn't need such equipment. This time, the Asgard Palace suffered considerable losses, with nearly two thousand warriors seriously injured and over a hundred killed. If Hinata hadn't arrived in time, that number would likely have increased further.
Don't underestimate this number. Keep in mind that the Celestial Palace deployed second-generation super soldiers this time. More than a hundred soldiers died in the fight against a small country like Sakura. Just imagine what it means when a whole squad of more than a hundred Super Soldier Corps is wiped out.
Even the battle against the Taotie wasn't this intense. Moreover, this was Zhao Xin's first time leading troops, and arguably the biggest stain on his record.
Even if all the people of Sakura were wiped out and turned into a mound of corpses, those warriors would never return.
Zhao Xin transformed into a streak of black light and quickly disappeared. Now, all he wanted was to get a good night's sleep and then think about how to atone for his mistakes.
These warriors were all elites of the Hidden Immortal Palace. He insisted on bringing them here to show off, but due to his mistake, more than a hundred warriors lost their lives. Zhao Xin felt like his sky was about to collapse. If he weren't the commander-in-chief, loud grief would damage the reputation of the Hidden Immortal Palace, and he would have already shed hundreds of pounds of tears.
He must go back immediately, check on the fallen soldiers, see if they have any relatives still alive, and then do his best to make amends.
Meanwhile, Hinata had already returned to the Asgardian Palace. She had dealt with all the triangular bodies on Earth and was now waiting for Zhao Xin and the others to return so she could quickly hold a ceremony to reward their contributions before heading back to the Angel Nebula to prepare for the succession ceremony.
After all, she has already been delayed for a long time because of what happened here, and she probably won't have time to make any preparations before directly succeeding to the position of Angel King.
Not long ago, Hinata received a message from Zhao Xin that the battle in Sakura Country had ended and they would soon return to the Hermit Palace.
Not long ago, Xiao Malou also sent news that the Chiwu star system had been thoroughly investigated and was preparing to return home.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, I'll bring my little minions along to show off when I succeed to the throne. After all, he's the first fourth-generation divine body under my command, so I have to show him off properly.
As for the upgrade plan for Zhao Xin and the others, she had already prepared it and just let Wu Zhao carry it out; it wouldn't take much effort anyway.
Hinata, along with Mai Zhao and all the powerful warriors from the Hermit Palace, arrived at the main gate to personally greet her warriors.
"Wu Zhao, after I leave, the Hidden Immortal Palace will be in your hands. In a few hundred years, you will lead the warriors of the Immortal Palace to move out of Earth, and create a nebula for the warriors of the Immortal Palace to live in, imitating the Angel Nebula. I have already written down the specific plan. After I leave, remember to arrange for some people to go outside Blue Star to find a suitable place to build the nebula. At the same time, remember to build a Great Worm Bridge to travel between the Angel Nebula and the Immortal Palace. If anything happens to the Immortal Palace in the future, you can seek help from Mother Keisha immediately."
Living on Earth forever is not good for either Earth or the secluded immortal palace.
After all, the Hidden Immortal Palace is now a super civilization, while Blue Star's technological level has not even reached the spacefaring level. Staying on Blue Star for too long might make the people of the Hidden Immortal Palace complacent and develop an arrogant habit, which would be detrimental to the future development of the Immortal Palace.
Moreover, after this, she also needs to quickly lead the Hidden Immortal Palace to subdue the Styx Star Region, reorganize the known universe, and then attack that so-called void plane.
Staying on Earth indefinitely would likely slow down this process significantly.
Soon after, Hinata saw several black figures in her line of sight.
"I didn't expect that the first ones to come back would be Xiao Malou and the others."
Sun Wukong saw Hinata and the others gazing into the distance like statues of waiting for their husbands, and immediately piloted the shuttle to Hinata's side:
"Hinata, did you come here specifically to pick me up?"
Sun Wukong leaped off the shuttle and came to Hinata's side, followed closely by Ge Xiaolun, and then by several third-generation super soldiers.
"Alright, hurry up and get back to the team. Zhao Xin and the others will be back with the army soon. After all, this is the first mission that the Hidden Immortal Palace has not had me leading. As the Palace Master, it is my duty to come and meet them."
Upon hearing Hinata's words, Sun Wukong realized that Zhao Xin had returned.
"I didn't expect Zhao Xin to be so fast. He wiped out the entire Sakura Kingdom in just half a month."
Sun Wukong said this, but that's not what he really thought. Given Zhao Xin's strength of 10,000 second-generation warriors, dealing with a mere Sakura Kingdom should have taken at least a week, even considering the travel time and the time needed to build the Jingguan (a mound of skulls). Yet Zhao Xin actually spent almost half a month, nearly twice as long as expected. There must have been something he didn't know about.
Especially since Hinata clearly went to Angel Nebula to prepare for the succession ceremony, but now she suddenly appears here, which is obviously abnormal. Could it be that something unexpected happened to Zhao Xin in this battle?
After all, logically speaking, Hinata shouldn't be here at this time.
Although Sun Wukong was eager to know what had happened, he also knew it was probably not a good thing, so he dared not ask rashly, lest it shake the morale of the army.
As for Ge Xiaolun, he didn't think so much. Instead, he told Hinata about his feat of killing two triangular bodies.
"Hinata, you have no idea, but this time I took down two Triangles all by myself."
