Chapter 15: Now

After the Tianji Emperor Heroes and his party left, the atmosphere of the meeting suddenly became much more tense.

Everyone here is a smart person, everyone knows what Lei Mo is thinking, but it is difficult to say that Lei Mo is wrong to do this.

After all, with the strength of today's Hero Kingdom, if the border defense of the Water Cloud Empire was handed over to them, it would be a great hidden danger to the security of the Water Cloud Empire.

To put it mildly, for Lei Mo, doing so is tantamount to sticking his head between the sword of the Hero Kingdom and the sword of the Fire Island, and the difference is only a matter of who is cut off.

However, now is a matter of life and death in the Shuiyun Continent after all, not only the Lei Mo family.

At this time, Emperor Mingyue spoke.

"I can understand what Chief Lei Mo did. However, today's events are far from what can be imagined in the past, if the gap in the real Shuiyun Empire is opened, it will be a misfortune for the Shuiyun Continent and a nightmare for countless people.

Ghost Island is closely connected to the Water Cloud Empire, and it is a relationship between lips and teeth, so if Chief Lei Mo can trust me, I am willing to help the Water Cloud Empire and send craftsmen and soldiers who are good at building fortifications.

This matter is very important, and I hope that Caiyue and Ziyue can also put aside their past grievances and work together to get through this difficult time.

I wonder what the two sisters think?"

Princess Ziyue took the lead in responding: "I don't care, anyway, I live in a corner of the Cross City, and the affairs of my family and country have nothing to do with me, but I don't want to see war and blood, so where I am needed, count me in." ”

Now that Princess Ziyue has made a statement, Princess Caiyue can't be silent, she obviously thinks a lot more than Princess Ziyue.

"If the Shuiyun Empire needs support from my side, of course I am willing, but my relationship with the Hero Kingdom is well known, and in order to avoid suspicion, and it is a long way from me to Tianzhu City, so it is better not to mix.

In addition, the Hero Kingdom will also have to withstand attacks from the Snow Country, and it is said that there will be a large number of cold-tolerant soul beasts newly cultivated on Fire Island. If this is the case, then the pressure on the Hero Kingdom will probably be even greater, because Snow Country has an extremely powerful number of illusionists.

So, when necessary. The Hero Kingdom will inevitably need my support in this regard, and everyone has a division of labor, so I hope Mingyue and Chief Lei Mo will understand. ”

Nalan Zhe didn't like Princess Caiyue's attitude, she was obviously doing Tai Chi, in fact, among all of them, she was the safest and least anxious.

On the one hand, he relied on the Hero Kingdom, and with the ability of the Heavenly Machine Emperor, he would definitely not let the Snow Country break through easily, and on the other hand, he was separated by the Atlantis of the Bright Moon Emperor and the Cross City of the Purple Moon Princess. There is also the powerful Shuiyun Empire, even if Fire Island has the ability to attack it, it will take a long time to attack her Hades City.

Besides, if the Water Cloud Empire is really defeated. At that time, the Heavenly Machine Emperor would inevitably take action, and he would not let himself be subjected to the enemy.

Therefore, at this moment, Princess Caiyue is still thinking about her own interests, but this is human nature, and Nalan Zhe is not easy to refute anything.

Next. I had to look at Lei Mo's attitude first.

Although Lei Mo is old and treacherous, Nalan Zhe believes that with Lei Mo's level, he will not make too many stupid moves.

"Ahem......" Lei Mo coughed and opened his mouth to speak, but after hesitating, he didn't say anything. Only a long sigh.

Nalan Zhe looked at Lei Mo's appearance, and suddenly found that he had also aged a lot in recent days, but no pity rose in his heart, the bad guy was old, and he was still a bad guy. It's just that his definition of the bad guy is a little more vague.

For example, the Phantom Emperor Meng Ming, is he a bad person?

This is the question that Naranzhe has been thinking about, if he is a bad person, it seems that the evidence is conclusive, because he killed his most important person, but his starting point is for the survival and happiness of more people.

But even if he is a great man, a saint, how can he decide the life and death of a good man?

Thinking of this, Nalan Zhe shook his head, he still didn't understand it now.

"Ninth floor, what does the Feng family mean, I'll listen to you. Lei Mo looked at the ninth floor of the wind, and glanced at the cold poetry sitting beside the ninth floor of the wind.

Feng Jiulou turned his head to look at Lei Mo, and said without thinking: "At present, the combined strength of the Shuiyun Empire, the Feng family, the Ye family, and the Shuiyun family is less than one-third of the Lei family, so our attitude is irrelevant, everything depends on your attitude." From a personal point of view, I don't like you, but from the perspective of the big picture, for the sake of the people of the Water Cloud Empire, for the sake of the people I care about, I am willing to do everything I can. ”

Feng Jiulou kept staring at Lei Mo's eyes when he spoke, there was no hatred or fear in his eyes, some were just indifferent, only when he read Leng Yu's poems, the kind of love and tenderness as a father would be revealed.

At this time, Lei Mo suddenly stood up, he stood very steady, just when everyone didn't know what was going on, Lei Mo suddenly bowed to the ninth floor of the wind, and then bowed to several people from the Shuiyun family, and then, he sat down slowly, without saying anything.

Looking at Lei Mo's actions, Nalan Zhe was slightly shocked, he knew the meaning of Lei Mo's bow, which was not only an apology for the murder of the eldest sister back then, but also a tribute to Feng Jiulou.

Nalan Zhe didn't know if Lei Mo's bow was guilty, or it was just out of helplessness and a trick to win people's hearts, but it was indeed not easy to be a man who could do his job, and he could be called a hero.

"Ye Du, what do you think?" Lei Mo turned his head to look at Ye Du, the Ye family was almost a historical term, but Ye Du's strength was something that no one could ignore, and Ye Du had always been known for his determination, so Lei Mo wanted to hear Ye Duel's opinion.

"Illusionists are the nemesis of martial artists, but not the nemesis of many martial artists. In the same way, a warrior is the nemesis of soul beasts, but not the nemesis of many soul beasts. There is not much point in our discussion here, and if there is a real war, the key factor is not us, but our enemies.

If it is really as rumored, they have such a large-scale ship and such a large-scale soul beast, judging from the current coastal defense of Tianzhu City, no matter how many people go, they will not be able to resist it.

Therefore, all we can do is either sit here and discuss, or immediately put in our best efforts to compete with Fire Island.

As for whether I can win or not, that's not something I can guess, I don't know more than everyone else. ”

After Ye Jue finished speaking lightly, he inadvertently glanced at Zi Zelan, who was sitting next to Princess Ziyue.

Zi Zelan immediately blushed and her heart beat when she saw Ye Jie's sight, and she was restless, and she didn't know what was wrong with her.

Princess Ziyue saw her daughter's reaction, although it was at this tense and critical moment, she still smiled secretly, it seems that she no longer has to bother persuading her daughter to marry Ye Jie, and what is even more gratifying is that Ye Jue also has feelings for her daughter. Thinking that her daughter could marry a character like Ye Jie, Princess Ziyue was relieved.

Ye Jie's words magnified the problem in front of him countless times in an instant, and his unique insights hit the nail on the head, impressing everyone present.

Lei Mo listened to Ye Jie's words, and was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses, and at this time, his eyes fell on Nalan Zhe's body.

Although the patriarch of the Shuiyun family is Shui Yunzhu, Lei Mo crossed Shui Yunzhu, looked directly at Nalan Zhe and said: "Xiao Zhe, I have lived for such a long time, I have never seen such a magical child as you, at this time, I won't say more, I want to hear your opinion." ”

Nalan Zhe stared at Lei Mo's eyes, his eyes were still full of faint resentment and anger, but he knew that he needed to face reality after all.

It is undeniable that now Lei Mo's role in the overall situation is very important, because he is not only the chief of the Shuiyun Empire, but also the soul of the Lei family, and the strength of the Lei family basically represents the strength of the Shuiyun Empire.

"I have the same idea as Ye Zi, what he just said is what I want to say. But I'd like to say a little more than that.

The people here today are the heads of various families, and they are also the ones who will decide the fate of the Shuiyun Continent. I think you must know that every word you say, every decision you make, and even every mistake you make today will go down in history.

Of course, it is also possible to be lost forever in history, if the history of the future is not written by us.

This war is inevitable, and each of us can foresee it.

But what this war will bring, we cannot foresee.

The flames of war may not change our lives much, but they will cause irreparable and irreparable damage to our people.

Girls will lose their lovers, only to see each other in dreams, and then never again.

Women will lose their husbands, and children will lose their fathers.

Those who are old and frail will see the picture they least want to see before they die.

And the eyes of the children will no longer see flowers and sun, but war and killing.

I don't know what you think, with my strength, I can completely protect myself, and I can also protect the people who love me and my love, but I feel that in the face of such a major history, we are standing in this position, we are burdened with the hopes of countless people, we cannot turn our heads, we cannot stand idly by.

A lot of people here have grudges, and I don't ask you to laugh at them, because it's too difficult, but I want you to see something a little bit more important than hatred, something a little bit farther away.

As Ye Zi said, I don't know if our fortifications have time to make up for it, I think the best time to make up for it is about ten years ago, followed by now.

That's all I want to say.

The fate of Shui Yun is in everyone's hands. ”
