He paused, looked at Zhao Xing, and asked again, "Do you have a way to contact Hua Shangyue? I need to talk to her."

Zhao Xing was still quite polite to Guo Feng, and quickly said, "Her Majesty the Empress has already made arrangements. If we fail, she will use this Heaven-Refining Thousand-Mile Talisman to let you contact her."

"The Heaven-Refining Thousand-Mile Talisman?"

Guo Feng raised an eyebrow. "It seems that this is also a wonderful use of the Heavenly King Cauldron. No wonder it is one of the ten divine artifacts of the Chaos Continent."

He waved his hand, "Let's begin."

"Yes, Wind King."

Zhao Xing smiled and nodded. With a flick of his hand, a powerful talisman, engraved with mysterious runes and bearing the image of the Heavenly Refining Cauldron, appeared before him.

He lifted it up.

The talisman flew into the air and exploded with a bang, and then a phantom emerged from the void.

This is a woman with almost perfect appearance.

She was dressed in a majestic imperial robe.

He held a staff in his hand.

She looked down at Guo Feng and said, "Guo Feng, I didn't expect them to fail."

"There are many things you haven't considered."

Guo Feng chuckled, "Hua Shangyue, we originally had a deal, but I didn't expect you to go back on your word. How are you going to explain this to me?"

"It's not that I went back on my word, but your King Hun Tian promised me control of half of the Land of Forgotten Sins."

The Empress said calmly, "I know that you would never give up even the slightest bit of the Land of Forgotten Sins, so I agreed to his request."

She paused for a moment, then said, "However, now that we've come to this point, I can no longer make the same deal with you as before."

Her gaze sharpened. "Guo Feng, of the Nine Provinces of Haotian, I only want three. You must share the Xuanhuang Continent with me. As for the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, we will work together to develop it."

What if I don't agree?

Guo Feng sneered.

It is absolutely impossible for China to cede its mainland territory.

"You won't agree?"

The Empress sneered, "Then just wait for my imperial army to march on our borders!"
