Ye Chuyao looked at Lu Xu, then at Murong Qing who was standing still, with an inexplicable light flashing in her eyes.

She had seen this kind of thing countless times in her previous life in the world of cultivation.

She had experienced scenes a hundred times more cruel than this.

The strong prey on the weak, this is the iron rule in the world of cultivation. If you are too weak, you deserve to be killed.

"But is it really okay to be so rampant?"

"As the saying goes, even a rabbit bites when it's angry!"

Ye Chuyao sighed softly and took a step forward to chase Lu Xu in front of him.

Seeing the two of them walking away, someone asked Murong Qing: "Your Majesty, you are bullying others..."

Before the man could finish his words, he was restrained by Murong Qing's cold eyes.

"Someone, collect their bodies!"

"Then find some good feng shui places to bury him!"

After saying that, Murong Qing waved his sleeves and quickly chased after Lu Xu and the other man.

When 놛 caught up with Lu Xu, the majesty he had just shown disappeared in an instant, replaced by a humble and flattering look.

Seeing this, Lu Xu's face showed a look of satisfaction:

"Murong Qing, I have to say that you are a very smart emperor."

"I am the Sacred Land of Xisi, and I can control the succession of the imperial power of the Yun Dynasty. I can even decide your life or death with a single word."

"Not only did you realize this, you also put yourself in the right position. Good, good!"

Hearing Lu Xu's praise, Murong Qing curled his lips and bent his waist even lower:

"It is our honor that the Holy Land provides protection for our Yun Royal Family."

........

Led by Murong Qing, everyone soon arrived at the Qinghe Hall where the royal family entertained distinguished guests.

At the front, in the main seat, there was a long table, which was now filled with delicacies from land and sea.

Seeing this scene, Ye Chuyao's throat moved slightly and he swallowed uncontrollably.

She only took a quick glance and saw that the ingredients of these delicacies were very exquisite, including precious spiritual beasts and spiritual fruits.

From this, it can be seen that the Royal Family of Yun really put a lot of effort into entertaining these two envoys from the holy land.

Murong Qing had been carefully observing every expression of Ye Chuyao and the other person.

Naturally, I noticed the change in her expression.

"Two messengers, please take a seat!"

Murong Qing personally welcomed Ye Chuyao and the other person to their seats.

Then he clapped his hands lightly.

A group of musicians and singing girls came out from the back of the hall.

........

The banquet lasted for more than two hours.

Ye Chuyao enjoyed the meal very much.

After all, the 눕Yun Dynasty is located in the upper realm, and the ingredients used for cooking are far from comparable to those in the lower realm.

Therefore, the taste of these delicacies is many times stronger than that of the underworld.

When the banquet was coming to an end, Ye Chuyao gently put down the chopsticks in her hand.

She knew it was time to get down to business.

Sure enough, Lu Xu threw away the chopsticks in his hand and asked Murong Qing casually:

"How are the preparations for the New Year's tribute going?"

“Has it been completed?”

"Especially the things that the elders specified, are they all there?"

Facing Lu Xu's series of questions, Murong Qing showed an embarrassment on his face:

"Report to the messenger!"

"We have almost prepared the tribute for this year, but there are a few things we cannot gather together."

When he said these two sentences, Murong Qing's heart was pounding and he was extremely nervous.

"Oh, what are those things?"

Lu Xu raised his eyebrows, with a hint of displeasure in his voice.

"The Earth's Core!"

"Ten thousand years of vines!"

"Bodhi Dragon Fruit!"

"Colorful blue gold!"

“.......”

Murong Qing reported five things in a row.

Then a waiter beside the morning waiter ordered: "Give the storage bag to the messenger!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The waiter held the storage bag and respectfully handed it to Lu Xu.

Lu Xu probed his mind into the storage bag, and after a moment, his face became completely gloomy.

Just as Murong Qing said, those precious materials were indeed missing from the storage bag.

However, those were the things specifically requested by the elders of the holy land.

Once their demands are not met, the elders will surely become furious.

At that time, I am afraid that Lu Xu will be implicated and cause dissatisfaction among some elders.

"The earth's core, the thousand-year-old vine, the Bodhi dragon fruit..."

“These things are really hard to come by.”

"But judging from the concentration of spiritual energy in this world, it shouldn't be difficult to create these treasures."

"Murong Qing has mobilized the entire country to search for these spiritual materials, how could he not be able to gather them all?"

A hint of doubt appeared in Ye Chuyao's eyes.

Although she has some understanding of the plot of the original work.

But ever since the Ye family had its first powerful Hedao Supreme Realm expert, the subsequent plot has deviated a lot.

Even the current plot development is completely different from the original.

Therefore, she also lost the ability to foresee and understand the subsequent plot.

.......

At this moment, Lu Xu slowly put away the storage bag.

His eyes were fixed on Murong Qing's: "Murong Qing, didn't you notice?"

"In recent years, the tributes prepared by your royal family have become increasingly inferior."

"Especially some of these precious materials, which repeatedly disappoint the elders of the Holy Land."

"So, this time before the gate, the elder of the holy land told me something."

Having said this, Lu Xu paused.

He just looked at Murong Qing with cold eyes.

"Hmm? Interesting. I wonder what the elder from the Holy Land said to Lu Xu?"

Ye Chuyao looked at Lu Xu with interest, waiting for what to say next.

Compared with Ye Chuyao, Murong Qing felt extremely uneasy.

He pulled the corner of his mouth and said in a harsh tone: "Waiter, I wonder...I wonder what kind of relationship the elder of the holy land has with you?"

Murong Qing's tone was extremely nervous.

Lu Xu stared at her coldly, and after a while he said quietly:

"The elder said clearly that if you and the Yun Imperial Family still haven't gathered all those precious materials, then you can't do it."

"Then if you are missing a few of these, I will kill a few of your royal bloodlines as punishment."

After hearing these words, the whole palace fell silent.

Murong Qing's eyes seemed to have lost focus, and were filled with disbelief.

I know that the Holy Land of Xisi has never taken us, the royal family of Yun, seriously.

But I never thought that the elder of the holy land would be so deceiving as to issue such a cruel and unreasonable order.

What did 놛 regard 눕云's royal bloodline as?

Can you just trample and kill ants?

Murong Qing's eyes gradually turned bloodshot and his breathing became more rapid.

Seeing this scene, Ye Chuyao said to himself:

"As expected of the Sacred Land of Xisi, they still act so domineeringly!"

"If you are short of some precious materials, you can kill a few bloodlines of the royal family of 눕云."

"Such a request would anger Murong Qing no matter how humble he tried to please, right?"

Ye Chuyao sat quietly aside and watched the show.

She wanted to know what Murong Qing planned to do in the face of the cruel and unreasonable demands of the Xisi Holy Land.

Should he obediently hand over a few royal bloodlines to be killed by Lu Xu, or should he go all out and attack them directly?

If Murong Qing chose to take the first path.

Then Ye Chuyao will really be disappointed.

"Gudong!"

Murong Qing swallowed hard.

The man said with a bitter face: "Messenger, you must be joking, right?"

"After all, it is the bloodline of my royal family. How can you destroy it so frivolously?"

At this moment, Murong Qing still had some fantasies in his heart.

However, Lu Xu's next words completely shattered 놛's last fantasy:

"Are you kidding? Haha, this messenger never jokes!"

"They are just a few lowly bloodlines, just kill them!"

"You are in your prime, you can just take in a few more concubines and have a few more children, what does that mean?"

Lu Xu's words were so explosive that even Ye Chuyao, who was watching from the side, was stunned.
