Chapter 189: Siege

Great Xia Kingdom, Imperial Palace.

The Imperial Palace of today, though still as majestic as before, was now engulfed in the flames of war, a stark contrast to its former bustling peace.

On the city walls of the palace, dense rows of soldiers stood armed, their expressions tense. Around the palace, large troops had surrounded them, their war cries shaking the heavens. The guards defending the capital, under the fierce attack of the rebels, had mostly disintegrated.

Now, this palace had become the Xia family's last line of defense. If the palace were to fall, it would mean the destruction of the Royal Family that had ruled over the Great Xia Kingdom for centuries, and the entire Xia family would be doomed.

Those who were still defending the palace, apart from the part of the guard fiercely loyal to the Royal Family, were those closely connected with the Xia family, deeply aware that if the Xia family perished here, they would certainly not be spared.
