"Then you must return to your place immediately. They all need you Zhan and Xuan Lan" Shi's grandfather said.

The emperors and their entourage of soldiers had already arrived at the battlefield. They had not seen any sign of the enemy before them. What they were worried about now was if the enemy was only deceiving them, instead of being on the battlefield but they were instead attacking the imperial people.
But all the things on their minds were gone when they saw rows of black spots like ants heading into battle. They were certain that it was the people from the former Moon empire.
"They're starting to come! Prepare yourself!" emperor Wang shouted to his entire army.
"Remember to stay focused and never be afraid of them!" said Prince Xian loudly who increasingly burned the spirit of all the troops who will fight.
After waiting for a while finally the black spots they were referring to began to appear. The entire army was a bit surprised when it saw that the opponent was a small dwarf shaped like a goblin. They wanted to laugh because they were confident that they could defeat the dwarves in a single slash.
"Don't be complacent with the physical form they have!" crown prince Wang shouted to all of them who made everyone aware that they could not underestimate anything from its form alone.
Shortly afterwards came a person with his mask who was advancing forward facing the entire army of the combined five empires.
"We haven't met before this war happened so I want us to make a deal for this war" said one person from behind the mask.
Emperor Wang as the warlord then advanced forward to get closer to the person who was talking earlier.
"What deal do you want?" emperor Wang asked the man earlier.
"The deal I want is that if you all lose then the entire empire will join forces and be under my control. The combination of the entire empire will be called the Moon empire" said a person who came accompanied by a decisive step heard from the roar of his horse.
"Lord" said the first horseman, saluting him.
Emperor Wang looked at the man. He's deep in his heart.
"Maybe he was the one who planned all these events"
"Then if you lose what's your deal?" ask emperor Wang.
"Cihh" decih the guy.
"I'm sure that we will never lose to all of you lowly humans who usually only attack with pettiness. Even you all banded together to destroy the Moon empire overnight and now it is my turn to destroy five empires at once in one day" he said firmly and with his chin raised like it would never come down.
"Why don't you want to say the deal? Are you afraid of eating your own words?" emperor Wang asked trying to provoke the emotions of the man before him.
The guy laughed blandly. He then directed his net to stare intently at Emperor Wang.
"I will never be afraid of anyone" he said.
"If my army loses then the descendants of Emperor Moon will disappear and that means you should be able to kill me first and that also means I will never interfere with the pleasure of little trash like you" he said while grinning.
Emperor Wang looked back at him first. All were in a state of silence and no one dared to speak a single word. They stared at emperor Wang with an extremely confident gaze if emperor Wang could go through with all of this. After that Emperor Wang looked back at the man before him.
"Do you agree with my deal?" ask the man.
"Tell me if it doesn't hurt me" said the man indifferently.
"Never send your troops to destroy the people who are still in the empire" said emperor Wang.
The man laughed again. He was still staring intensely at this man who had an age that was far away from him.
"You kind of gave me an idea. Didn't you all also finish off the entire people of the Moon Empire? Then why can't I take out all your people?" ask again.
"Don't act stupid! You've made a deal so I have the right to make conditions for you" said emperor Wang, who began to be provoked by his emotions but quickly returned to neutralize them.
"All right, all right" said the man, shaking his hand in the air.
"Do I need to stress one more time if I'm not the one who likes to play with pettiness? I will never disturb the peace of the people in your empire because they too will be my people" he said.
"If I take them all out then I won't have any more people and don't you ever think I'd do such a stupid thing" he said, smiling cynically.
Emperor Wang breathed a sigh of relief after hearing it. At least all the people who were inside the empire could be safe and they would not be affected by any of these wars unless they lost their families. It could not be required by Emperor Wang and promised to anyone because he believed everyone had their own time to live in this world.
"If it's like that then I assume you agree with all the deals I've given you" said the man.
"Ahh, I haven't met you yet. Aren't you the emperor Wang?" tanyakanya.
"My name introduction is Moon Zhao Yang" he said with a cynical smile.
Emperor Wang looked at the man in front of him.
"So d-he was the grandson of the Moon emperor? Was crown prince Moon then still alive?" inner wondering.
Shortly after, there was a long trumpet that indicated that the war had begun.
"Groan!" shouted the person who was beside Moon Zhao Yang.
Emperor Wang quickly turned his horse towards his troops. Then he also shouted.
"Get down! Defeat them all!" his screams blared all over the battlefield.

Meanwhile Xuan Lan and prince Zhan were heading towards the battlefield using their qingqong. Grandfather Shi had already warned them if they did not need to take out Ran while heading there. Grandfather Shi also advised Xuan Lan only to remove Ran if he felt his enemy would have already taken out his dragon. As for Kuma, they could take him out at any time because he was just a fox so he could help as much as he could.
The reason Grandfather Shi forbade Ran from being expelled was for Ran's own safety. Grandfather Shi knew that they were all dealing with a crafty person. It could be that person will attack Ran and he will attack Ran's vital point, Ran, after all that person also had a dragon and after he attacked Ran's vital point then his dragon would easily kill Ran.
"It takes how much longer for us to get to the battlefield" Xuan Lan exclaimed in frustration.
