Chapter 769 If Other Nations Do Not Accept Them, Great Xia Will Take Them. If Other Nations Do Not Support Them, Great Xia Will Support Them (2)
Women don\'t mean what they say! Zhou Shu cursed silently, but there was a smile on his face. "Thank you, Miss Bai."
He still displayed a pleasant attitude toward free labor and people who might become workers in the future.
"I want to forge, so I need you to help me deal with some forging materials…" Zhou Shu instructed bluntly.
As for the legacy of the Red Water Heaven of Dan Mountain, so what if he gave it to her? With her personality, she probably wouldn\'t take the initiative to become enemies with the human race.
…
In the Demon Realm Ancestral Court, the human and the demon were busy forging, but the outside world was already in chaos.
Grotto-heavens appeared one after another and opened their doors to recruit disciples.
Although it didn\'t seem to affect the Ten Nations\' regimes much at the moment, recruiting disciples attracted the talents of the Ten Nations. This was wiping out the Ten Nations\' talents.
But the imperial families of the Ten Nations were helpless in the face of this situation. No martial artist could refuse the hope of breaking through to the Earth Immortal realm.
The grotto-heavens gave martial artists this hope.
In Great Xia, Emperor Yuan Feng sat in the imperial court. The officials below were already arguing.
"Your Majesty, you must absolutely not let that army enter the territory of Great Xia," an old official said with a solemn expression.
"That army has complicated personnel. Other countries don\'t dare to accept it because of this reason. Great Xia can\'t take the risk," the old minister said righteously.
"Bullshit!" a bearded man scolded. "Great General Meng and the others returned after going through a hundred battles, and you want to shut them out?
"In order to protect Great Xia and our families, they risked their lives to fight demonic beasts. In the end, they\'re receiving such treatment?
"Your Majesty, I think that not only do we have to receive them, but we also have to welcome the warriors home with great fanfare!"
The bearded Zhang Fuzhi said loudly, "We want the world to know that their sacrifices for the human race were not in vain. We have not forgotten them!"
Emperor Yuan Feng sat upright on the dragon throne, his expression as calm as water.
During the argument below, Emperor Yuan Feng pondered for a long time before saying, "Is there any news of the King of the South?"
"No," said Ma Fengzhang, the commander of the Divine Constable Bureau. "Ever since His Highness was taken away by the people of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven, there has been no news.
"I tried to negotiate with the people of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven, but they were very arrogant and didn\'t give me a chance at all."
Ma Fengzhang smiled bitterly. With the appearance of the grotto-heavens, he, the commander of the Divine Constable Bureau, was the busiest. All kinds of people had appeared, and the world was falling into chaos.
Most importantly, there was nothing the Divine Constable Bureau could do about the grotto-heavens.
The Divine Constable Bureau knew nothing about where the grotto-heavens were, how strong they were, and so on. Furthermore, they had no way of investigating.
"Where is the young princess?" Emperor Yuan Feng asked with a deep voice.
"According to the information, after His Highness was taken away by the people of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven, Her Little Highness also left the military camp. She should have returned to the capital. With Her Little Highness\' cultivation, she should have arrived long ago. But ever since she left the camp, she has disappeared," Ma Fengzhang said bitterly. "I suspect that something might have happened to Her Little Highness."
"You suspect? Might?" Emperor Yuan Feng\'s eyes were full of anger. "Ma Fengzhang, is that how you do your intelligence work?"
Emperor Yuan Feng slapped the armrest of his dragon throne and shouted angrily, "With the young princess\'s cultivation, who in the world can make her get into an accident?!"
The quarrels in the imperial court stopped, and there was complete silence for a moment.
In the past, there might not have been any.
But now that the grotto-heavens had appeared, who knew how many experts had appeared? Although the little princess was powerful, no one dared to say that she was invincible.
"A king of Great Xia was taken away for no reason, and his fate is unknown! A young princess of Great Xia might have met with an accident. How can they do this to a little girl? This is a provocation to Great Xia!"
Emperor Yuan Feng stood up. "You can endure it, but I cannot!
"Pass down the order. I want to personally leave the city to welcome the triumphant return of the army!"
Emperor Yuan Feng\'s face was full of determination. "I will never let the heroes who shed blood for the human race cry again!
"If other nations do not accept them, Great Xia will accept them. If other nations do not support them, Great Xia will support them! They are all warriors of Great Xia, heroes of Great Xia!"
Emperor Yuan Feng shouted, "Ma Fengzhang!"
"Here!" Ma Fengzhang cupped his hands.
"No matter which nation these warriors are from, as long as they are willing, bring them to Great Xia. Your Divine Constable Bureau is responsible for protecting their safety!" Emperor Yuan Feng said in a deep voice.
"Understood!" Ma Fengzhang\'s expression was solemn. "I swear on my life that I will complete the mission!"
Emperor Yuan Feng nodded and shouted again, "Zhang Fuzhi!"
"Here!" Zhang Fuzhi, the minister of war, shouted.
"Ministry of War, I want to reward the army!" Emperor Yuan Feng said loudly. "Gold, silver, and jewelry, glory and wealth, my Great Xia will definitely not be stingy. These warriors must obtain everything they deserve!"
"Understood!" Zhang Fuzhi shouted excitedly.
"Your Majesty…" The expression of the old minister who had objected changed drastically.
"I have made up my mind. If any of you feel that my actions are wrong, it is fine. I will allow you to have different opinions." Emperor Yuan Feng swept his gaze across the court and said coldly, "But hold back all your different opinions. If anyone dares to make a mistake in this matter, do not blame me for being ruthless!
"This time, I will be arbitrary for once. If anyone feels that you cannot take it, I will allow you to resign and return to your hometown!"
Emperor Yuan Feng stood in front of the dragon throne with his head held high. He had ascended the throne for decades, but he had never been domineering.
The officials of Great Xia were in a daze for a moment. Was this still the kind and indecisive old man Emperor Yuan Feng in their impression?
This Emperor Yuan Feng didn\'t seem bad.
…
An army of about 10,000 people stopped on a hill of rocks. Everyone\'s expressions were ugly.
"Brother Meng, Great Xia is ahead. Are you sure we really want to do this?" Wang Mu said. He was in a very bad state of mind and looked dispirited.
Previously, after the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven released them, they were expelled from Great Qin.
Including Wang Mu, Wang Xin, and the others from Great Qin, they were all expelled.
The reason was that it didn\'t make sense for them to be able to return alive from the Demon Realm. They must have colluded with the demonic beasts of the Demon Realm. Now that the Demon Realm\'s demonic beast army was pressing down on them, they were not allowed to stay in Great Qin just in case.
Not only that, but after leaving Great Qin, they had been told by many nations to leave their borders as soon as possible.
This disheartened everyone.
Great Xia was now the last nation.
"Brother Meng, if there\'s really no other way, we\'ll fight our way back to the Demon Realm. At the very least, there is a place we can stay." Wang Mu\'s face was full of bitterness. He had never expected this day to come.
"Brother Wang, I don\'t know about others, but His Majesty of my Great Xia won\'t give up on us," Meng Bai answered solemnly.
"I used to think so too," Wang Mu said bitterly.
When he was the great general of Great Qin, he had never thought that such a day would come. He still didn\'t understand why the emperor did this.
"It\'s different. His Majesty is different from the Qin emperor." Meng Bai stopped and didn\'t provoke Wang Mu too much. "We\'ve already come this far. We have to give it a try. If Great Xia doesn\'t allow us to enter, then we\'ll listen to you, Brother Wang. We\'ll return to the Demon Realm and kill those demonic beasts!"
