Chapter 360 Sitting in the Palace of the Emperor

The news that Commander Liu had asked for two days' leave quickly spread among the guards.

It was rare for Commander Liu to ask for leave, but the most unusual thing was that Jiang Li actually took Commander Liu's place in the Human Emperor Palace.

"It turns out that the duties of the Human Emperor also include sitting in the Human Emperor Palace." An experienced guard suddenly remembered that Emperor Lu seemed to often sit in the Human Emperor Palace.

Jiang Li strolled in the center of the Human Emperor Palace with his hands behind his back like a retired veteran, checking how much power of faith had accumulated in the bronze tripod, touching the chair in the center of the hall, and then sitting down.

"Speaking of which, what should the Human Emperor do when he sits in the Human Emperor Palace?" Jiang Li then realized that this was his first time sitting in the Human Emperor Palace.

For some reason he felt guilty and felt sorry for Commander Liu.

Just when Jiang Li wanted to find someone to ask what he should do, he saw a group of guards wearing the same uniform coming into the hall with sunny smiles on their faces.

"Hello, Palace Master!"

The guards shouted in unison. The Emperor's guards were only a few hundred people, but they created the appearance of tens of thousands of people.

Not only that, Jiang Li found that there were more and more guards, and it seemed that even the guards who were not on duty today had come.

"Hurry, hurry, something important has happened, come to the Human Emperor Palace immediately!"

"What's the big deal? I'm taking a break today and want to spend some time with my wife and kids."

"Such nonsense, my wife and children can't run away, so why can't I accompany them? The Palace Master is in charge of the Human Emperor Palace today, will you come?"

"Go, of course!"

Upon receiving the news, the guard immediately comforted his wife, put on his clothes and rushed back to the Human Emperor Palace.

This guard has been in the job for hundreds of years, and has seen Jiang Li only a handful of times.

I heard that the disciples of Dao Sect have seen Jiang Li more times than him.

…

"Everyone, keep calm and don't make a fuss. Just treat me as Commander Liu. I will do whatever Commander Liu does." Jiang Li felt a little scared when he saw the looks in the guards' eyes. He felt that they were not much different from the female cultivators of Shangsi Society.

The Human Emperor Palace maintains order in Jiuzhou and allows Jiuzhou to maintain competition, but without causing vicious competition that would destroy the future.

A guard stepped forward and said, "Palace Master, I have something that originally required Commander Liu to make a decision on."

"explain."

"The Great Yong Dynasty and the Wuyue Dynasty are planning to jointly host a monk competition. Before the competition, they are going to ask the monks to sign a life and death agreement. We hope to get permission from the Human Emperor Palace."

Both the Dayong Dynasty and the Wuyue Dynasty believed that there is great terror as well as great opportunity between life and death, and that the trials of life and death can improve a cultivator's state of mind and cultivation.

The two dynasties often held such competitions.

Many cultivators also believe in this idea and like to wander between life and death. They will travel thousands of miles to the Dayong Dynasty and the Wuyue Dynasty to participate in the competition.

Even Jiang Li had participated in such competitions many times and gained a lot.

"Let me see." Jiang Li took the report prepared by the guard and reviewed it carefully.

The rewards for the competition are generous, enough to attract those fearless monks, and the competition rules are more complete than when Jiang Li participated in the competition.

"Yes, but signing a life and death agreement requires testing the monk's mental state, recording and videotaping, and proving the monk's willingness to participate in the competition. Also, you cannot open a casino with the life and death of the participating monks as a bet."

"Yes, sir."

Jiang Li knew that some cultivators were afraid of death themselves, but liked to watch other cultivators fight life and death battles.

Seeing the business opportunity, the casinos secretly opened casinos and made hidden moves to control the outcome of the games and life and death.

The participating monk thought this was a trial of life and death, but he didn't know that his life and death had already been determined.

Jiang Li once participated in a rigged competition, but luckily he had a temporary breakthrough and with the help of the skills he had mastered but had not used, he won the competition.

Even so, he was hounded by the bookmaker for several days after the game.

One guard stepped back, and another stepped forward: "Palace Master, there are constant frictions between Qingqiu Kingdom and the Great Witch Kingdom, and there may be a war in the near future."

The guards of the Human Emperor Palace are not all in the Human Emperor Palace. They are scattered across various countries, paying attention to the movements of various countries and preventing large-scale wars.

The Great Wei Dynasty and the Mengjiang Dynasty started a war because of the Red Dust Fairy. It was the guards who reported this to Zhang Konghu. When Zhang Konghu saw that he could not handle the matter himself, he reported it to Jiang Li.

Neither Qingqiu Kingdom nor Dawu Kingdom were dynasties, but they were great countries with a long history. There were many cultivators in the fusion stage in each country. If a war broke out between these two countries, it would inevitably result in tens of thousands of deaths.

Qingqiu State is the country of the little white fox on Qin Luan’s shoulder, and Dawu State is Zhang Konghu’s hometown.

"What is the reason for starting the war?"

"Some people in Qingqiu were dissatisfied with the rule of the king, the Nine-tailed Sky Fox, and colluded with the Great Witch Country to plot against the Nine-tailed Sky Fox, causing it to disappear."

"The king is missing, and the Great Witch Nation hopes to take this opportunity to annex Qingqiu. According to calculations, 800,000 monks will die in the annexation process, and this does not take into account the subsequent resistance of the Qingqiu people and the bloody suppression of the Great Witch Nation."

"The Great Witch Nation proposed to the Human Emperor Palace that if it could annex Qingqiu Nation, it would triple the tax paid to the Human Emperor Palace for a hundred years."

"Three times? How generous." Jiang Li sneered. Wars are fought over cultivators and spirit stones. After the war, people's livelihood is in decline and the treasury is empty. Where does the Great Witch Kingdom get the money? It is nothing more than overdrawing the treasury or exploiting the people.

"Is the king of the Great Wu Kingdom or Zhang Konghu's brother?"

"yes."

"Still as self-righteous as ever."

The Great Wu Kingdom is a country of the Wu clan. There is also a hierarchical order within the Wu clan, and the highest level is the royal family of the Wu clan.

Zhang Konghu is the son of the previous king of the Dawu Kingdom and has the royal blood of the Dawu Kingdom flowing in his veins. However, the royal family of the Dawu Kingdom despises Zhang Konghu for being dull and thinks he is not worthy of being raised.

After the death of the previous king of the Dawu Kingdom, Zhang Konghu had just reached adulthood and did not have the strength or the brains to compete for the throne.

Zhang Konghu's elder brother became the king of the Dawu Kingdom, and drove his annoying and mentally retarded younger brother out of the country and made a living on his own.

After Zhang Konghu left the Great Wu Kingdom, he met Commander Liu, who thought Zhang Konghu was a promising talent and taught him carefully.

Zhang Konghu lived up to everyone's expectations and stood out from the guards to become the commander.

After hearing the news, the king of Dawu State changed his attitude drastically and became very friendly to Zhang Konghu, even making him a prince.

Even if Zhang Konghu was stupid, he knew who was really good to him and who was just pretending. He had always ignored the king of the Great Wu Kingdom.

Zhang Konghu's so-called annual visit to his relatives was nothing more than a visit to his mother who was buried in the Great Wu Kingdom.

Although Zhang Konghu was cold towards the king of the Great Wu Kingdom, the king always felt that blood was thicker than water. For the sake of Zhang Konghu's face, the Human Emperor Palace would turn a blind eye to their actions.

For example, the annexation of Qingqiu State this time.

If Commander Liu were here, he would tactfully state that Zhang Konghu of the Great Witch Kingdom was the commander of the Human Emperor Palace, not the prince of the Great Witch Kingdom.

Jiang Li was not in a good mood towards the King of the Great Wu Kingdom: "Tell the King of the Great Wu Kingdom that if you dare to start a war, I will take direct action."

"Yes, sir."

Jiang Li thought of Qin Luan. If Qin Luan realized the identity of the little white fox one day and helped her regain the throne, this would probably be something the Great Witch Kingdom did not want to see.

The conflict between Qin Luan and the Great Wu Kingdom was inevitable.
