As Emperor of the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty, Yang Yu's cultivation was at the Bone Marrow Cleansing Grandmaster Realm, but in a clash between National Guardian Martial Saints, he was completely powerless to influence the outcome. Instead, if something were to happen to him, the entire Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty would suffer the consequences.
The consequences would be even more severe if he were captured alive by the Jin Meng Empire.
While it wouldn't be a complete catastrophe, the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty's prestige would surely suffer a massive blow.
Even if things didn't escalate to that point, and his safety was guaranteed, problems would inevitably arise if he wasn't overseeing things in White Jade City.
After all, the Old Emperor's reputation wasn't exactly sterling. Countless Princes of the Great Zhou Imperial Dynasty had died by his hand—and they were his very own sons.
