The restoration of the Han Dynasty began with the Horus Rebellion.

Chapter 56 The Common Enemy of the Four Chaos Gods

Chapter 57 The Common Enemy of the Four Chaos Gods

"Sun Qian? What are you doing here?"

Angron stood atop the boulder, the metal chains binding his arms exerting a pulling force measured in hundreds of tons, the chains digging deep into his Primarch-level, resilient flesh.

Yet this giant, with his own flesh and blood, held firmly to these chains, so that the boulder beneath his feet would not move and so that his offspring could safely evacuate to the Great Tyrant.

Sun Qian simply stared silently at Anglong, and after a moment raised the explosive gun in his hand.

Bang bang bang! !

He pulled the trigger repeatedly, but Angron made no attempt to dodge, not even blinking.

However, Sun Qian's explosive bomb did not hit Anglong, but instead accurately struck several basketball-sized rocks that were about to hit Anglong from behind.

At this moment, the disintegration of the Istvan III was accelerating, with more of its crust turning into fragments and being ejected into the sky by lava. Although most of them were blocked by the Void Shield of the Great Tyrant, a small portion of them, which were slower, still broke through the Void Shield's critical point.

"Thank you for your help, Brother Sun Qian."

Even though his muscles were bulging and contracting to hold onto the chains, Anglong's voice remained gentle and steady.

"Although I wanted to say it that way, it seems you have something else you want to talk to me about."

After helping Angron knock down the rubble, Sun Qian did not put down the bomb gun, but continued to point it at Angron's forehead.

"Can't we go back inside the ship to talk? To be honest, this isn't a comfortable position for a long conversation."

"I'm afraid that won't work; I value rituals very much."

Sun Qian rejected the other party's proposal without hesitation.

"The villains in police and gangster movies like to negotiate from high places; it's a traditional trope."

T

Angron narrowed his eyes slightly, but showed no sign of anger.

"So, you're saying I'm the villain?"

"Who knows? Maybe I'm the villain—but as you said, it's not a very comfortable place to chat, so let's get straight to the point."

In the scorching air, Sun Qian stared at Anglong, his tone still relaxed, but his eyes were full of vigilance.

"Tell me, what exactly is your purpose?"

"Didn't I tell you? Then I'll say it again. I want to fight alongside you to stop Horus, who is being controlled by the Chaos Gods, from overthrowing the Empire..."

""

"and then?"

"We'll first find an opportunity to approach Horus. During my battle with him, you or Liu Bei will use your 'Benevolence' ability to dispel the mental influence of chaos. Then, I'll use my talent to absorb his anger and other negative emotions, bringing him back to his senses completely—"

'

"You already included those, so I'm not interested in them."

Sun Qian coldly interrupted Anglong, and said, word by word.

"And then what? After the Horus rebellion is over, what do you plan to do? What do you plan to lead us to do?"

Anglong remained silent for a few seconds, his deep and wise eyes meeting Sun Qian's, before he finally spoke slowly and in a deep voice.

"I will unite all the rebels...and persuade your loyalists, and then devise a plan to march on Terra."

Sun Qian's reaction was calm, as if he had expected this.

"The Great Rebellion of Angron?"

"No, it's a great liberation."

Angron said in an unwavering voice.

"I will liberate humanity from the enslavement of the evil Chaos Gods... Tzeentch, Khorne, Slaanesh, Nurgle, and the tyrants who call themselves emperors!"

"Well!!"

On the End, Taifeng, the first company commander of the Death Guard, suddenly clutched his chest and knelt on the ground, letting out a very painful groan.

"Ahem... I'm sorry, dear father... I... please forgive me..."

'

Motalian paused for a moment, then his gaze toward Taifeng softened considerably.

There is a blood relationship between the Primarch and the corresponding Legion soldiers, similar to that between a father and his offspring. Therefore, he naturally assumed that the loving father in Taifeng's words referred to himself.

It seems that his company commander has deeply realized his mistake and feels extremely guilty for accepting Horus's orders in private. He is now suffering greatly both physically and mentally as a result.

"I forgive you, Taifeng. You are still my most trusted son."

Mortarian gently placed his hand on Typhon's shoulder armor.

"You should go and rest first. I will personally command the legion from now on. When our battle arrives, that will be your chance to make amends."

Taifeng's body trembled slightly, but he quickly nodded and then staggered back to his room.

As soon as he entered, he immediately took off his helmet and turned on his communicator, quickly entering the private communication channel code.

Soon, a holographic projection appeared in front of him, showing a distorted and ugly face.

"Taifeng! I was just about to look for you. The War Commander didn't hold you responsible, but you must follow orders from now on... What happened? Your face..."

'

Malohrist was stunned, even though he knew that his appearance had become a subject of much criticism since the plane crash.

But at this moment, Taifeng's face was even more horrifying than when he looked in the mirror. Not only was his face covered with pustules, but his facial features had also begun to rot.

"It's nothing... it's just that Father is angry. He gave me clear battle orders... but unfortunately, I can't do it now because Mortarian is watching me. Damn it, maybe I should have sacrificed him to Father sooner, cough cough."

Tai Feng clenched his teeth in resentment, causing disgusting pus to splatter across his face.

But his suffering did not seem to stem from the torment of his own body, but from his inability to serve his true master, and from disappointing the god he worshipped as a believer.

Malohrist's face scrunched up. As one of the first members of the Sons of Horus to learn Chaos magic, he knew that among the current legions of Istvan III, besides the deceased Eribus, Typhon was the most knowledgeable about the warp and the most closely connected believer with the Chaos Gods.

Therefore, in addition to conveying Horus's orders, he also wanted to resolve his doubts when he contacted Taifeng this time.

"The War Commander just ordered us to shoot down the Great Tyrant at all costs, including the Angron currently on it. What's going on? It sounds like the War Commander's real purpose is..."

"Angron, you guessed right."

Taifeng said, panting heavily.

"According to the divine message given to me by the Father, although the specific situation is unknown, Angron is very dangerous for us!"

This "we" refers to...

Malohrist's facial muscles twitched, but he decided to ask the most crucial question first.

"How dangerous is it?"

"Actually, I can't believe it either, but as far as I know, if we leave it unattended..."

"In addition to the fervor of his faith, Taifeng's eyes also held a hint of fear."

"He could actually cause the four Chaos Gods to lose control over humanity."

"Without a doubt, he is the common enemy of the four Chaos Gods!"
