"Place a certain number of grenades at the city gate, and the moment they detonate, the entire wall will collapse in an instant! The massive city wall will be completely destroyed by the grenades, without any power to resist."
"The Zhou family used hand grenades to blast open the city gates, break into the city, and occupy a part of it."
Hand, grenade!
This was the first time they had ever heard the term "weapon of mass destruction."
These two short words convey a sense of devastating power, like thunder.
Cheng Xianyi narrowed her beautiful eyes and glanced at the prince of Dongyan Kingdom. The heat in his eyes for the grenade was so intense that Cheng Xianyi could hardly ignore it.
Everyone present held their breath, their faces showing varying degrees of panic and lingering fear. Some people, who were not psychologically strong, began to mutter, "What should we do now?"
Given this situation...
It's likely that the Zhou family will be able to completely take over Yan Kingdom within a month or two.
What happens after we conquer Yan?
Will they take action against the various tribes in the Central Plains?
Could it be that he harbors a grand ambition to unify the world?
I ask you all here, who doesn't want to unify the world and become the overlord of the Central Plains?
"Those grenades can even blow up cities, what can't they do! In front of grenades, the human body is probably like an ant, isn't it?"
"Does nobody know where this thing came from? Master Cheng, your Cheng Gui Pavilion has the best information network, yet there's not a single clue as to the source of this grenade?"
"If we could find out how to make hand grenades, that would be great. Maybe we could let the Mohist disciples at the academy try making them. At the very least, knowing where they came from would be helpful!"
"What can we do now? Once the Zhou family takes over Yan Kingdom, they will probably turn against us."
"yes."
"Those two things from the Zhou family, one can kill from a distance, and the other can destroy the heavens and the earth. How can we, with our mortal bodies, possibly resist them? Wouldn't this only mean handing over our land to others? How can I accept that!"
Just when everyone was in a state of panic and wondering what to do next.
A footstep sounded from the main entrance.
Immediately afterwards!
The middle-aged man's voice, tinged with arrogance and disdain for all living beings, resounded throughout the venue: "A lowly ant has the good fortune to possess a world-destroying weapon, and he really thinks he's some kind of powerful person?"
"You are all leaders of various powers in the Eastern countries. Are you really afraid of the Zhou family, acting so timidly?"
What powerful sentences!
Those who hear it are moved, and those who listen are deeply shaken.
Everyone present instinctively stood up and looked toward the source of the sound.
The person who arrived was wearing the uniform of Nanyue Academy.
Over forty years old, he exudes an imposing aura.
He was the Lu Xun scholar tutor at Nanyue Academy.
Cheng Xianyi raised an eyebrow, scanned Instructor Lu's features for a few seconds, and then turned her head to look at Ziyan, who was also blinking.
"Master, this person looks familiar." Ziyan whispered in Cheng Xianyi's ear, "He looks a bit like that Senior Brother Lu from last time, the one you crushed."
"That's true to some extent." Cheng Xianyi nodded calmly: "When the younger one dies, the older one comes."
"Professor Lu!"
"Professor Lu!"
All those in power wore obsequious smiles, and Mentor Chaolu greeted them respectfully.
Even the prince of Dongyan Kingdom personally came down to greet this mentor and took the first seat.
Cheng Xianyi was the only one who didn't move, sitting steadily in place without even glancing at Instructor Lu.
"The Pavilion Master of Cheng Gui Pavilion is here too. I thought you were truly indifferent to worldly affairs, and that you wouldn't show yourself even if any turmoil occurred in the Central Plains." Instructor Lu looked at Cheng Xianyi with a sarcastic tone.
“Compared to being indifferent to worldly affairs, how can they compare to Nanyue Academy?” Cheng Xianyi continued, “On the one hand, they claim to be indifferent to power, while on the other hand, they secretly send students to investigate the Zhou family.”
"They even went so far as to sow discord, murdering Zhou family confidants while simultaneously shifting the blame onto Cheng Gui Pavilion, almost causing..."
That's all for now.
Cheng Xianyi suddenly paused.
She looked up, glancing at the shocked expressions on everyone's faces, and realized she might have let something slip. She blinked in surprise and asked Instructor Lu innocently:
"Professor Lu."
"Can't we say these things?"
"I'm straightforward, and I sometimes say things without thinking. I hope I didn't say anything I shouldn't have."
Professor Lu's eyebrows twitched rapidly: "........."
Nearly twenty pairs of eyes in the room were looking at him, their eyes filled with disbelief and doubt.
Did the Nanyue Academy secretly go to the Yan Kingdom to gather information without their knowledge?
Moreover, Nanyue Academy also wanted to obtain the weapon.
Therefore, it almost stirred up the feud between the Zhou family and Cheng Guige, causing the two sides to kill each other.
Oh my god!
