Volume 3 The Terrans of the Metaverse Chapter 5: Planning Ahead
After Sun Ao, the envoy of gods and demons, explained to the patriarchs of the various blood cultivation families in the Xia Kingdom what they needed to find, Emperor Zhu Quan also took the opportunity to propose a plan to attack the Yuan Kingdom and completely destroy the immortal cultivators, and this plan was supported by all small and medium-sized families except the three ancient blood families of Yuan, E, and Long.
If it was in the past, most of the heads of various families would not agree to Zhu Quan's plan for their own interests, after all, except for the gods and demons who had to deal with the Nether Realm to collect Ning Yuanlu every once in a while, everyone was relatively well-off, and they couldn't start a war, and if they didn't do it, they would drag themselves down.
But now, the heads of the small and medium-sized families have to support His Majesty the Emperor's proposal, and after ten years, they will hand over double the share of Ning Yuanlu, even if the disappearance of Jing Yuan Cao did not happen, no small and medium-sized family dares to guarantee that they can complete their share, not to mention that now that all the Jing Yuan Cao are missing, it is even more difficult for small and medium-sized families to complete such a huge share arrangement.
As for opposing such an unreasonable share distribution by Sun Ao, didn't you see that the bloody headless corpse of the head of the Pan family was still lying on the floor on the side?
Since there is no hope of completing the share of Ning Yuanlu's reserves, then the task of finding certain people or things that Sun Ao proposed before has become a hope that small and medium-sized families must grasp, and the people or things that need to be found in the task given by Sun Ao have no extra instructions except for a few points, and even if these people or things are not in the territory of Xia Kingdom, what if these people or things are not in Xia Kingdom, but in Yuan Kingdom, or Zhao Kingdom, or other places?
If you can't complete the task, it's a death, it's better to fight, what if you are really so lucky to find what the gods and demons envoy needs? Sun Ao agreed, if he can find what he needs, not only will the share be exempted, but he can also be taken out of the Metaverse by Sun Ao when he returns to the upper realm, which is a more attractive event than becoming the emperor of the Xia Kingdom, where to find such a great good thing, so the heads of the small and medium-sized families have secretly pondered it, and then agreed to Zhu Quan's proposal.
His Majesty the Emperor, who had won the support of the small and medium-sized families, excitedly set his eyes on the heads of the three ancient blood families, but the performance of the heads of the three ancient blood families made Zhu Quan scold secretly.
For the three ancient blood families, even if the essence essence grass of each family has been lost now, the three ancient blood families themselves have enough reserves of condensation yuan dew, and although it will be difficult to take out double the weight after ten years, it will definitely not hurt the muscles and bones, but on the other hand, the manpower and material resources required to carry out a devastating blow to the Yuan Kingdom and the immortal cultivators are extremely unwilling to bear by the three ancient blood families.
It's not just that the possible consumption problem makes the heads of the three ancient blood families have doubts, but more importantly, there are some secret reasons:
From the perspective of the Yuan family, Yuan Hong himself is the lover of the Yuan family's alliance with the Immortal Cultivator and the Demon Venerable, and it is impossible for him to agree to attack the Yuan Kingdom, on the contrary, he will try to delay the time of the attack.
From the point of view of the Broken Spirit Family, the Broken Spirit City is stationed all the year round, and the Broken Spirit City is the only fortress that chokes the main road between the two countries, and the Yuan Kingdom and the Xia Kingdom have countless transactions in the open and secret every year, all of which have to pass the approval of the Broken Spirit City, if the Yuan Kingdom is destroyed, the meaning of the existence of the Broken Spirit City will not be as important as it is now, and the Broken Spirit City has to consider from its own interests.
And the Long family, which seems to have the least to do with the relationship between the immortal Yuan Kingdom, is the most forbearing, the most cunning, and the most ambitious of all the families, when Long Qingyun saw that Zhu Quan asked Yuan Hong and Er Feng about the plan to attack the Yuan Kingdom and neither of them answered positively, he rolled his eyes, and said haha to Zhu Quan, who was looking at him hopefully, and deliberately diverted the topic.
Seeing that the topic was a little frozen, Zhu Quan's eyes turned, and he squeezed out a sentence from the corner of his mouth with compassion: "Perhaps, the Naxi things that Your Excellency the Envoy is looking for are all in the Yuan Kingdom, after all, everyone knows that the secrets of the Yuan Kingdom are much more than our Xia Kingdom." ”
Hearing this, Sun Ao sneered and looked at Zhu Quan's words, and saw that Zhu Quan's whole body was uncomfortably breaking out in a cold sweat, and then he looked away and said: "The Yuan Kingdom must be destroyed, and the remnants of those Yuan people must also be destroyed, this!
Sun Aodi's words made Zhu Quan's heart flutter, and at the same time, the attack on the Yuan State was a certainty, and it became another important task that the Xia country lords had to complete.
In the face of Sun Ao and his identity as a god and demon envoy, even if the heads of the three ancient blood families were unwilling, they had no choice but to deal with the matter and take this opportunity to discuss the follow-up plan.
I have to say that as long as there is a goal, the high-level controllers of the Xia Kingdom are still very efficient, especially when there is such a palpitating blade as Sun Ao hanging high above these controllers, in just one day, there is a rough result of the discussion, and the result of this discussion is very simple, that is, the various blood cultivation families will search the shards in the Xia Kingdom, find the things that the envoy needs and accumulate strength, and prepare to launch a full-scale attack on the Yuan Dynasty eight years later.
The result of the discussion made Yuan Hong secretly frightened, this was much earlier than the time he had told Zhang Daoyi and the others in the wild forest before, and he didn't know if Zhang Daoyi and the Nine Demon Venerable and the others could be ready to deal with the attack from all the blood cultivators of the Xia Kingdom within eight years, but fortunately, as soon as the result of the discussion came out, Sun Ao generously flicked his sleeves and let everyone leave, it seemed that he really didn't want to interfere in too many things, when everyone left, Sun Ao's last request made the faces of the heads of each family extremely ugly, Sun Ao's request was: to provide food。
The heads of small and medium-sized families left one step ahead of schedule, and they also needed to rush back to the family to deal with the family affairs left over in the past few days and arrange future family plans by the way, and some of the heads of small and medium-sized families were not fools, after all, the war with the Yuan State could not be avoided, and one more preparation would be able to gain one more benefit in the war.
The heads of the three ancient blood families walked one step later than the heads of those small and medium-sized families, and in an extremely bad mood, the carriage when Yuan Hong stepped up was about to leave the palace, but was stopped by Er Feng at the gate of the palace, after thinking for a while, Yuan Hong let his carriage go to Huoyan City first, but he boarded Ei Feng's carriage and headed towards Broken Spirit City with Er Feng.
Long Qingyun saw Yuan Hong get into Efeng's carriage, frowned and didn't say anything, but ordered the coachman to speed up and rush towards the Long family.
Nanwang didn't expect this series of things to happen at all, he was originally going to use the matter of Jing Yuan Cao to embarrass Zhu Quan in front of the god and demon messenger, if there was a chance, Zhu Gui even wanted to put all the charges of Jing Yuan Cao's disappearance on Zhu Quan's head, and then let Sun Ao, who was tyrannical in Zhu Gui's opinion, be angry and kill Zhu Quan on the spot, but he didn't expect that the messenger was out of order, and under Zhu Gui's bullshit mess, Zhu Gui's plan was all disrupted, and he couldn't even say anything about the disappearance of Jing Yuan Cao.
Looking at Zhu Quan, who was in high spirits with the acquiescence of the envoy and instructed the heads of the family to prepare the attack plan, Zhu Gui hated it so much, and as soon as he came out of the banquet hall, he ran directly to the Nanwang Mansion.
There were only two people left in the banquet hall, Sun Ao and Zhu Quan.
Seeing that the heads of the family had dispersed, Zhu Quan personally walked to the side of the gate and closed the door, then walked back to Sun Ao and knelt down on one knee to Sun Ao, if it weren't for the fact that he was still wearing the emperor's clothes, where would Zhu Quan still have half the shadow of the emperor at this time, I saw him half-bowing his head, lowered his voice, and said with some flattery: "Said: "The little one thanked the adult!"
"Get up!" Sun Ao's laughter rang out: "If it weren't for the fact that the master informed me, I wouldn't have bothered to care about your life or death, if they had told me about Jingyuancao, in order to maintain my dignity, I would have to kill you, but fortunately, I would have brought this matter over in time." ”
"That's what the Lord said!" Zhu Quan stood up: "I didn't expect that all the Jing Yuan Grass in my Xia Kingdom would have a problem at this juncture. ”
"Don't talk nonsense!" Sun Ao shouted: "Although I helped you delay for a while, but according to the master's plan, Jingyuan Grass is indispensable, and after ten years, can you be sure that Jingyuan Grass will be enough?"
His eyes turned, and the fierce light revealed from Zhu Quan's eyes: "Well, rest assured, what is needed for the growth of Jingyuan Grass is the power of blood, fierce beasts are not easy to catch, but people are much easier to catch than fierce beasts, if it weren't for those blood cultivation families who still have some use, I can't say that I will use them to cultivate Jingyuan Grass, but since I want to destroy immortal cultivators, let's keep them first." ”
"Hehe!" Sun Ao smiled pitifully: "No matter what you do, what Shizun wants is the result, and after ten years, Jingyuan Grass cannot be missing! Also, Shizun personally calculated that those things I proposed must be in the Metaverse, and you must find them out for me!"
Zhu Quan nodded emphatically.
"Remember your promise, as long as you do it, Shizun will naturally meet your requirements!" Sun Ao stared at Zhu Quan for a long time, and then his figure slowly disappeared from the main seat, leaving only one sentence floating in the empty banquet hall: "I'd rather use my own race to feed Jingyuan Grass, Zhu Quan, even my clan can't do this kind of thing, can you still be regarded as a human race?"
Looking at the empty seat left behind after Sun Ao's figure dissipated, Zhu Quan raised his left hand slightly, and with a slight grip, a bone spur grew out of the back of his hand.
"Yes, can I still be counted as a human race?" took a closer look at the bone spurs on the back of his hand, and then shook his hand slightly, the bone spurs on the back of his hand retracted into the back of his hand, and he never saw a single bit, Zhu Quan said softly in a voice that only he could hear: "However, for the sake of ...... What's that?"
After standing alone in the banquet hall for a while, Zhu Quan suddenly turned around and sat down on the main seat, and the royal aura originating from the emperor of the Great Xia Kingdom emanated from him again, and shouted loudly: "Someone is coming!
In the west of the Xia Kingdom, there is another country to the west of the Yuan Family's Huoyan City, the territory of this country is much smaller than that of the Xia State, and the country and the Xia State are generally dominated by blood cultivators, but unlike the Xia State, the emperor of the Zhao State is more powerful than the emperor of the Xia State, to put it bluntly, the Xia State is an alliance composed of many blood cultivation families, and Zhu Quan, the emperor, can only sit firmly because of his identity as the head of the Zhu family, and the Zhao State is indeed an empire, and the person in charge of the country is not the head of each family, but the emperor appoints officials to manage various domestic affairs。
On the third day of Sun Ao's arrival in the Metaverse, that is, on the evening of the day after the discussion of the heads of the family in the banquet hall, a barren area bordering the Zhao State and the Xia State was suddenly smashed into a big crater by a fireball falling from the sky.
