“Young lord Zhen, you’re a smart man This matter must be resolved today as a country can’t be without a leader You may leave if you’re afraid The capital doesn’t need cowards!” His ani unfounded accusations Jiang Chen had previously called him a coward and he’d returned the accusation in kind

Jiang Chen laughed coldly “Emperor Shura, I’m afraid you’re the only coward here Do you know that you had a very good chance of beco the next ruler of Veluriyam Capital? It’s unfortunate that you were too much of a coward in front of Emperor Peafowl Timid like a cat, you couldn’t even show an ounce of ferocity You were already given a chance, but you threw it away Do you really think that a person like you is deserving to be the ruler?”

Emperor Shura’s expression darkened He knew very well that Jiang Chen’s words were true E lord Fan’s death, but he didn’t go through with his decision for some reason

Perhaps I was really too docile andChen’s words struck Emperor Shura’s sore spot

“Do you truly believe that your cynical remarks can make my dao heart waver?” Emperor Shura snorted coldly “Save your breath!”

“You must be mistaken Why would I want to make your dao heart waver? Do you think that you have one? Would a person with a dao heart cavort with the enely “Stop trying to feign ignorance Letto face Emperor Peafohen he coed He didn’t knohy young lord Zhen was so certain that he was the one who’d har lord Zhen was truly overstepping his boundaries

back! He screamed internally But on the surface, he maintained a wise ruler facade “I’d be more than happy if Emperor Peafowl returns Naturally, I’ll return power back to hih “You speak as if the capital is already yours!”

In terms of connections and fa Chen didn’t hold himself back “You’re nowhere even near as qualified as Emperor Petalpluck in terms of seniority! Your reat emperors! Your reputation and your connections? Absolutely foul s as well! Your contributions to Veluriya to write home about! You’ve been here for thousands of years, but what have you contributed to the capital? The biggest stir you’ve ever caused is probably today’s rigged vassal on clapped his hands in agreement “One cannot defend a nation with only wit or win over the citizens with only brawn Your past conducts are terrible and your contributions almost zero A person like you actually wants to rule the capital? Everyone, will you really allow a person with no contributions like him to become the ruler of our beloved capital? He has the ability to contribute, but what has he ever done? He's lived under E because he’s lazy and cowardly He only takes care of his own interest and hasn’t bled a single drop of blood in service to our capital! If he becomes the lord, I can’t help but be skeptical if he can truly lead us out of a difficult situation whenever it arises!”

One’s contribution to the capital was truly an important criteria Emperor Peafowl’s position in the capital was so stable because everyone could see the blood and sweat that he’d contributed His strength was also so that known to all

Since all pretense and cordiality had been already shed, Eument won the hearts of many Emperor Shura’s personality was indeed too cold, lofty, and very unapproachable

He was the opposite of Emperor Peafowl If the citizens of Veluriyam Capital were to receive unfair treatment outside, Emperor Peafoould definitely exact some justice for his citizens as a form of consolation The people couldn’t sense the sa Zhen for co since he beca hard for the sake of our capital He’s helped us retain the Longevity Pill, defeat the overweening Pillfire City, and founded Taiyuan Tower and Taiyuan Lodge, which has given countless lectures over the years His every action inspires all of us Young folks now aspire to comprehend all nine Veluriya, but he’s already ereat eeniuses have we ever seen that can do such a thing?” Eo Every single word he uttered was truthful and well-grounded
