Dethroned from the Imperial Throne, Why Are You So Anxious When I Don't Want It Anymore? - Chapter 155
Chapter 155: Liu Dynasty, Liu Xu
Qingxuzi and Lingyunzi glanced at Ye Yu in surprise, curious why he thought Great Zhou would cooperate.
Ye Yu showed no intention of explaining. He didn’t intend to reveal that the Fourth Prince of Great Zhou, Zhou Li, had already signed a master-servant contract with him. Instead, he said, “For now, you can go to Lingyun Pavilion. Teng Ying still owes me 200 million spirit stones, which should alleviate the immediate crisis. ”
Hearing this, the two exchanged glances, nodded, and agreed that it was the only option for the time being.
Afterward, Ye Yu asked Lingyunzi to take him to see the Xu siblings. Under Lingyunzi’s careful guidance, Xu Xuan had officially become a Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator.
As for his sister, Xu Yan, her talent wasn’t as good as Xu Xuan’s; she had only barely reached Foundation Establishment.
Looking at Xu Xuan, Ye Yu temporarily dismissed the idea of taking him to the Hundred Dynasties Battlefield to find Ji Zhan Tian. He was still too weak.
After finishing all this, Ye Yu left Zi Xiao Sword Sect with Liu Qi and returned to Qingzhou.
Soon, news spread that Zi Xiao Sword Sect had sent people to the Great Zhou Empire to discuss cooperation.
The entire Leizhou was in an uproar, and many sects immediately came out to criticize Zi Xiao Sword Sect’s actions.
After all, Zi Xiao Sword Sect and Nine Spirits Sword Sect could almost represent all the sword cultivators in Leizhou. In their view, this act undoubtedly represented the sect cultivators bowing to the imperial cultivators.
However, all these sects that spoke out were undoubtedly related to the Alchemy Alliance.
The many other sects chose to quietly observe and remain silent.
It can be said that Leizhou had suffered under the Alchemy Alliance for a long time.
Since the establishment of the Alchemy Alliance, almost all the pills in Leizhou had been monopolized by it, except for a few trading houses like Lingyun Pavilion that occasionally sold pills refined by their own alchemists.
Other high-grade pills had almost become the sole domain of the Alchemy Alliance.
At Nine Spirits Sword Sect, the Nine Spirits Sect Master’s expression was not good. They hadn’t expected Zi Xiao Sword Sect to choose to cooperate with the empire.
“Sect Master, if the Great Zhou Empire really agrees to cooperate with Zi Xiao Sword Sect, things will become tricky,” Ren Xiaoyao said with a frown.
They all knew that the foundation of a super empire was definitely not weak, and in some aspects, it was even stronger than the sects.
“Master, don’t worry. The Great Zhou Empire will definitely not agree to cooperate with Zi Xiao Sword Sect. I can guarantee this,” Ye Xuan said.
Hearing this, the Nine Spirits Sect Master and Ren Xiaoyao both looked at him, as if waiting for Ye Xuan’s next words.
“I know why Zi Xiao Sword Sect is looking for Great Zhou. It’s because the Great Zhou Empire is about to marry the Great Yan Empire. Ye Yu probably wants to use this marriage to facilitate cooperation between the two. However, I know that Great Yan will not help Ye Yu with this,” Ye Xuan said with a smile.
But in his heart, he was filled with disdain.
Ye Yu was just Ye Yu, his abilities were limited, and now he was pinning his hopes on Ye Qingwan and the others.
He never learned his lesson!
The Nine Spirits Sect Master nodded and then said, “In that case, you should take people back to Great Yan and make sure that this cooperation does not happen. Understand? ”
“Disciple understands! ” Ye Xuan nodded heavily.
“Don’t mess this up this time! ” the Nine Spirits Sect Master said with a serious expression.
Xu Wangchen, no, the reason why Ye Yu’s affairs have reached this point can be said that Ye Xuan, who recommended Ye Yu to Nine Spirits Sword Sect, is the culprit.
If Ye Xuan hadn’t been invited to join the Alchemy Alliance, the Nine Spirits Sect Master would have punished him long ago.
“Disciple understands! ” Ye Xuan nodded, turned and left. Ren Xiaoyao and the Nine Spirits Sect Master exchanged glances and then followed him out of the Main Hall.
After leaving Leizhou, Ye Yu and the other did not immediately go to Great Yan but returned to Great Qin first.
However, at the present time, a man stood in the Great Qin Imperial Court, looking disdainfully at Qin Wushuang.
Nie Xing beside him also had a grim expression.
“So, your Liu Dynasty doesn’t intend to hand over the mine? ” Qin Wushuang’s expression was not good.
The man below was a prince of the Liu Dynasty in Leizhou, named Liu Xu.
Among the rewards that Great Qin Dynasty obtained in the Hundred Dynasties War, one of them was a spirit stone mine within the Liu Dynasty’s territory.
“Your Majesty’s words are strange. Our Liu Dynasty has not said that we will not hand over the mine. We intend to jointly mine it with you. Since Qingzhou is far away, we will be responsible for the escort, so we will take seven parts of the spirit stones, and you three. ” Liu Xu smiled faintly.
He didn’t take the Great Qin Dynasty seriously at all.
With the Great Qin Dynasty’s foundation, even if its strength improved after receiving some resources, it was still a low-level power in Leizhou.
His Liu Dynasty’s strength was second only to the Ten Great Super Empires.
If a super empire were to take over, they would naturally hand it over. However, they were unwilling to give it to Great Qin.
“I don’t agree to this cooperation, and I advise your dynasty not to disregard the rules of the Hundred Dynasties War because of a spirit stone mine,” Qin Wushuang said coldly.
Liu Xu smiled coldly upon hearing this and said, “Fine, if you don’t agree, then so be it. The Liu Dynasty will complete the handover of the mine as soon as possible. However, if any problems arise during the mining process, please solve them yourselves. ”
The threat in his words was very obvious, and everyone present understood.
“Presumptuous! ” Qin Wushuang roared, his eyes turning to Nie Xing.
Since learning of Ye Yu’s strength, Nie Xing had completely submitted. He immediately stepped forward, and the pressure of the Transformation God Initial Stage swept out.
“Heh, a Transformation God Initial Stage cultivator, you really think you’re someone important? ” Liu Xu glanced at Nie Xing indifferently. The elder behind him snorted coldly, and a pressure several times stronger than Nie Xing’s instantly erupted.
Nie Xing groaned, took a few steps back, looked at the elder in shock, pursed his lips, and said incredulously, “Transformation God Late Stage! ”
As soon as these words fell, the faces of everyone in Xianyang Palace turned ugly.
They had originally thought that their dynasty already had a Transformation God expert, and they could at least hold their ground. But the Liu Dynasty casually sent out a Transformation God Late Stage cultivator.
“Father Emperor, I think it’s better to accept this proposal. Jointly mining with the Liu Dynasty will ensure safety,” Qin Han said with a pale face, addressing Qin Wushuang.
“No! If we start this, other dynasties can come to show off their strength and then seize resources belonging to Great Qin. That will only make things worse,” Qin Ruoxian said coldly.
“This is the Imperial Court, not a place for you to act recklessly. You have no right to speak. Get out! ” Qin Han shouted at Qin Ruoxian.
Liu Xu looked Qin Ruoxian up and down, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, and he smiled, “Interesting. Well, Your Majesty, I have another proposal. ”
“I hear that the Great Yan Empire is going to marry the Great Zhou Empire. Your Great Qin also needs a backing. How about our Liu Dynasty being your backing? “
