Eternal Villain: I can enslave Reality!

In the end, he was persuaded to help the City. "I'll go talk to them. Let's see why they aren't helping the citizens."

The Patriarch of the Chen Clan flew to the Commanding Ship. However, it wasn't easy for him to get to the ship, since it was heavily protected because of Xu Shan's presence.

In fact, he wasn't even allowed to land on the Commanding Ship without permission.

One of the guards went to inform Xu Shan that Chen Huo intended to meet him. The same information was also delivered to the Great Elder and Ye Han.

Xu Shan had almost fallen asleep when he received this news. In the end, he had to get up, even though he felt somewhat irritated.

"These guys don't even let me rest."

He donned his Royal Robe, before leaving the room, accompanied by Xinren.

As he stepped on the dock, he noticed Ye Han and the Great Elder present there. The two of them were standing together with Chen Huo, who was finally allowed to land.

His arrival attracted the attention of all three of them.

"What do you need?" The Young Prince asked, stepping closer.

"I'm here to ask, why aren't we descending to help the City? I'm sure you can also see that innocent people are dying!" Chen Huo exclaimed, pointing at the burning City in the distance.

His voice became louder without him even realizing, as if there was still some irritation deep within him, related to what Xu Shan did to their family.

"If you want to help, go down and help them," Xu Shan lazily commented. "While you're at it, go help other cities as well. I assign this duty to you. You can leave now. Leave the war to us. You play the hero instead."

"What?" Chen Huo frowned, taken aback. "What do you think you're saying?"

"Leave. I don't have time to pay attention to your childish demands. I'll grant them." Xu Shan waved his hand, as he started leaving, rubbing his eyes as if he actually was sleepy at the moment.

Chen Huo was monetarily frozen. He had to join the war! That was his own goal!

"Your army is already weak! Do you think you can even have the slightest chance of victory if I leave?"

In the end, Chen Huo couldn't help but counter.

Xu Shan stopped in his tracks. However, he didn't turn around. Instead, he burst into laughter. He only shook his head lightly, before he continued walking away.

"Leave before I am forced to remove you. And if you fail to finish the duty I assigned you, then you'll be considered a traitor to the throne. So better pay attention to your own situation, rather than mine."

Xu Shan's voice echoed in the surroundings as he disappeared from the view, not even bothering.

He already knew how to end this war. If he really wanted a big army, he could've asked that from his father. There was a reason he took the two weakest armies of the four with him.

Even if his army became weaker, he didn't care. He had everything that he needed. Moreover, he didn't need people in this army who questioned his decision.

At least the Great Elder and Ye Han listened to him. Even though the Great Elder might show some discontent at times, he wasn't going to go against him. That much Xu Shan was certain.

On the other hand, Chen Huo had the arrogance of the Patriarch of one of the Four Great Clans in the Eternal Dynasty. If there was one variable in this army, it was Chen Huo.

Moreover, Xu Shan had already offended them in the past. He felt uncomfortable with them watching his back. If anything, he was already trying to think of a way to get them to leave. And this came as an opportunity.

This was also partially why he refused to descend to help the city. He was hoping that Chen Huo was going to step forward and then he could assign this responsibility to him.

Chen Huo watched Xu Shan leave. His fists were tightly clenched. However, in the end, he couldn't go against the decision.

He looked at Ye Han who he thought was the real commander. However, Ye Han also shook his head lightly, as if implying he couldn't help them.

Now that the Chen Clan was assigned a duty, they couldn't do anything.

"I must join this war! I have to take revenge for my father!" He exclaimed.

"Are you saying you'll go against the decision of the Leader of this Army?" Ye Han frowned, revealing a trade of killing intent.

Even though Chen Clan was one of the four great clans, but now that the only Heavenly Celestial that was in their family, the Eastern General had died, their fall was inevitable.

That's also why they were so eager to earn merits.

Chen Huo could clearly feel the killing intent. In the end, he turned around to leave. He was convinced that there was no chance this army was going to win in his absence, even with Ye Han.

If anything, he subconsciously wished for the absolute destruction of this army so that the Emperor could come to his senses and stop taking it as a game.

He left the Commanding Ship, returning to the ships that were under the control of his clan.

As soon as he landed on the ship, he commanded his people that they were descending!

His sudden instructions surprised many people on the ship. On the other hand, Chen Rouyin nodded in satisfaction.

"It looks like I was right. Xu Shan isn't the one in control. If he was, he never would've changed his mind. This is much better."

Hearing his daughter's words, Chen Huo's lips twitched uncontrollably.

Only he knew who was in real control. In just an instant, all his misconceptions had been cleared.

"The others aren't going down. Only the Chen Clan will focus on the rescue," he told his daughter, before clarifying everything that happened.

He didn't realize that hearing his words, his daughter revealed some unnatural expressions.

"W-wait. We can't leave the main army! We need to get them to help as well!" She insisted firmly. "T-this isn't good if we do it alone!"

"Why are you reacting so strangely? Weren't you the one who wanted us to go down in the first place?" Chen Huo frowned, finally noticing something odd.
