971 Two Hours (1/2)
”...Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty Saint Emperor decrees Great Gan small King: I know all about what happened in Yuanlian World! I know that Hong Jiuchen and the rest are not in the wrong. You have no proof of what you said. Shadow Demons are hated by people of all worlds, so how can their words be taken for the truth?”
”Even if they made a mistake, as a subject of mine, I will deal with Hong Jiuchen myself. How can you tell me what to do? To hand over his head, that is truly preposterous!”
”...I know Hong Jiuchen and you have some conflicts due to the fight for Yuanlian World. However, he already has plans to calm the matter down. As a Ruler of a country, how can you be so narrow-sighted? To grab so tightly to these grievances and you even want to push the blame to us?”
When he saw this Zong Shou couldn't help but burst out laughing.
It was okay if they denied it, but they actually tried to put the blame on him?
Looking at this, Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty's stand on this matter was really obvious.
As expected, a war was unavoidable this time.
Zong Shou still suppressed his emotions and continued to read the details of the decree.
”...How crazy! To want us to give up land, to give up 5 small-sized words, you really are the joke of the world! The Ruler of an ant nation, with less than a million troops and less than 10 Celestial Realm Cultivators. To think you actually dare to say such words and force us to give up land? Your brain must not be working?”
”Let me ask you something, small King Zong Shou, are you crazy? Or, is it that you don't value your own life? Or, maybe as the rumors say, you are just stupid?”
”A swallow doesn't know how vast the sky is, someone in the well doesn't know how deep the ocean is! How would ants like you know the strength of countries in this region? Since you want to provoke us, then I will give you what you want. I will gather my allies to sent troops to attack Yuanlian! We won't return until we win!”
”Finally, let me tell you that I will give you half a day to back out of Yuanlian and you are never to step into this world! If not, no matter who is in our way, they will be killed! With this said, don't blame my following actions…”
There wasn't any signing off at the bottom, just a few words…”This decree has been sent to all worlds to let them know about this!”
The entire decree wasn't complete but it was really direct and sharp. It was really domineering, quite similar to just scolding and trying one's best to humiliate and insult.
Zong Shou had predicted that the contents of the decree weren't going to be good.
After looking at it, the corner of his eyes twitched.
Even if he was a decent person, it was tough for him to calm down.
Crazy? Stupid?
Zong Shou shook his head slightly and his emotions calmed down once more.
To think he actually dared to provoke Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty who owned hundreds of worlds, and just Xuan and Huang Grade Dao Soldiers alone numbered in the millions.
This was no different from asking to die!
Moreover, apart from Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty, he also offended Xuanling Guild, Jijue Celestial Dynasty, and Tianfang Guild.
What Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty Saint Emperor said wasn't wrong.
He laughed, stood up and took a step out, arriving in the air of the Yuanjing Celestial Palace.
At this moment, the entire Celestial Palace was boiling. Everyone who could fly had already flown up into the air and looked at the decree. Their expressions were all different but none of their expressions looked good.
Most of them were trying their best to keep calm while a portion of them were pumped up.
Apart from that, there was still some worry and fear spreading in the group causing the morale of the Celestial Palace to sink.
Pretty much everyone noticed the emphasis of the decree.
Once Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty went all out to attack Yuanlian, who knows what the situation would be like?
Even if Zong Shou gave them a lot of confidence these few months, it was unavoidable that they were nervous.
Only those Source Ocean and Spirit Changing Demon Slaying Warriors looked normal and their expressions didn't change.
The former didn't really understand the situation in Yuanlian and the latter only roughly knew about Zong Shou's foundations. They knew the background of this master.
To many people, this Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty Ruler really deserved to die.
As for the latter, most of them had their souls washed and there were restrictions in their minds. They only knew about being loyal to their Master and they didn't bother much concern themselves too much about their own life and death.
After those words appeared, they stopped for a moment in the air. Only then did the Spiritual Energy of the decree run out.
Just as the scroll was about to land, Zong Shou reached out and grabbed it.
The arrival of the decree also meant that Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty was prepared and that all matters were settled.
Zong Shou didn't smile but he was deep in thought.
At the same time, there was a weird movement in the air. Moments later a person suddenly appeared beside him.
”Young Master!”
The voice was really sunken and cold, calling him Young Master and not Ruler. It was Yexuan who was originally hiding a few worlds away.
”Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty is about to attack. Brother Ao has headed outside the World River to hide and can help at any moment. Senior Aoyi used the Mirror Shining World Technique to peek, the Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty sent at least 6 Saint Realm Cultivators! Apart from that, who knows if they have other methods prepared? This is why Young Master has to be really careful! In the battle, Young Master should not be too far from me!”
Zong Shou didn't care much and was still slightly distracted. A moment later, he opened his mouth, ”The decree scolds me for being crazy, that I am a swallow, an idiot…”
Yexuan was stunned when he heard this and found it rather amusing. Then, he felt that it wasn't right. With Zong Shou's character, he shouldn't worry much about these insults.
Thinking about it for a moment, Yexuan nodded his head, ”This person is asking for death!”
He had not gone head-on against the Sky Burning Saint Dynasty and he didn't know how strong the Lu Family was.
He clearly remembered that the Country Ruler just sent someone to spread a sentence which knocked him off his cloud.
With what Hong Jiuchen said, his head would have been cut off.
