"That's fine. Today I'm here as a guest at Lord Wu's place. There's no reason for Lord Wu to stand up to greet guests. I'll just sit down."
Li Xukun took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
The fact that he felt threatened at least meant that there was a quasi-emperor-level strongman behind Wu Rulong. His Li Dynasty was not without quasi-emperor-level strongmen, but the problem was that the quasi-emperor ancestor of his Li Dynasty was the kind whose life span was almost exhausted. If he were to be born, he might not be able to go back even if he wanted to lie in a coffin.
Therefore, unless forced to do so, Li Xukun would never ask the ancestor to take action, and as far as he knew, the same was true for the other three dynasties.
"Haha, Your Majesty is a man of taste."
Wu Rulong looked at Li Xukun and spoke slowly with a smile on his face, but that smile seemed like a mockery no matter how you looked at it.
This made Chen Ze and others unbearable.
"That's enough. Your Majesty is not someone you can sneer at."
"Stand still, don't make a move!"
Li Xukun took a deep breath and stopped Chen Ze and others with a stern face. He was joking. If they took action, Li Xukun was sure that they would be the ones to die.
But Chen Ze and the others didn’t know this, and their faces were full of disbelief.
However, Li Xukun ignored him and sat directly opposite Wu Rulong, putting on a smile on his face again and said.
"Lord Wu, I'm very curious. You were able to create such a large Wu Chamber of Commerce in less than a hundred years. Do you have any secrets or is there someone helping you behind the scenes?"
Everyone was a smart person, so Li Xukun didn't hide anything and asked directly.
Wu Rulong sighed, with an extremely melancholy expression on his face, and spoke in a lonely tone.
"Ah, I didn't want to do that either, but when it comes to careers, I was just planning to have some fun, but I didn't expect to accidentally create such a huge chamber of commerce. I'm really helpless."
Hearing the Versailles tone in Wu Rulong's voice, Li Xukun's expression froze for a moment. Why did Wu Rulong's arrogant expression look so annoying?
But Li Xukun still resisted the urge to fight with Wu Rulong and laughed.
"Lord Wu, you're quite humorous. However, it seems as though you've received assistance from a distinguished person. Since no one else is present today, why don't you tell me who's behind you?"
"Hey, stop talking nonsense. Who said there are no outsiders? Aren't you an outsider? Besides, why should I tell you who's behind me?"
Wu Rulong frowned slightly and retorted mercilessly.
Hearing such disrespectful words, before Li Xukun could even open his mouth, Chen Ze and others behind him could not help but lose patience. After all, in their hearts, Li Xukun had always been the supreme being, so how could they allow Wu Rulong to insult him like this?
"How dare you say such words to His Majesty? I think you have already decided on your own death. Die!"
The hot-tempered Chen Ze immediately rushed towards Wu Rulong angrily, but at the moment he made a move, he was slapped in the abdomen by Li Xukun and immediately knelt on the ground.
"You are so bold! I haven't even opened my mouth yet. Who told you to do this?"
Chen Ze's face was full of surprise. It was obvious that he didn't expect Li Xukun to actually attack him.
You have to know that I did it for His Majesty's face. How could His Majesty do that to me?
But at this moment, Li Xukun was in a situation where he had no way to speak out his grievances. After all, only he himself could feel the faint threat from Wu Rulong. If he spoke out, he could not be sure whether Wu Rulong would take action.
"Hmph, let this slap be a lesson to you. Next time, don't act recklessly without my permission!"
Li Xukun snorted coldly and ignored Chen Ze behind him. He turned to look at Wu Rulong and said with the same smile on his face.
"My dear Wu Aiqing, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."
"Hahaha, that's really funny. After all, we have to manage our subordinates well now. We have to admit our mistakes and stand at attention when we're beaten. If our subordinates act recklessly, what's the point of us being in charge?"
Wu Rulong also laughed, not disguising the teasing in his eyes at all.
Seeing this, Li Xukun was a little angry, but he could only laugh.
Just when Li Xukun was about to ask, Wu Rulong finally spoke.
"Your Majesty, a while ago, a scoundrel came to me and said that you ordered me to be killed, but I killed him. I wonder if Your Majesty knows about this? After all, I am worried that someone will use your name to slander you."
When Li Xukun heard Wu Rulong suddenly bring up this matter, his pupils shrank slightly, but he quickly reacted and his face was full of anger.
"What? Someone actually dared to attack Lord Wu? And in my name? They are really very bold. Slander, absolutely naked slander. If I knew who is slandering me, I would definitely make them die!"
Li Xukun thought that Wu Rulong said this just to scare him, but he didn't expect that Wu Rulong would snort coldly the next second.
"Li Xukun, stop pretending. Everyone knows what you did. If you're a man, then admit it. I can still respect you as a man."
Hearing this, Li Xukun lowered his head for a moment, and when he looked up again, his eyes were full of calmness, and he spoke lightly.
"It seems that Lord Wu has his own opinion. If that's the case, then I don't need to say anything more. Just do whatever you like."
The most urgent thing is to leave here first. Li Xukun could feel that Wu Rulong was ready to turn against him when he said this, and he was even confident that he could survive or even fight back at the hands of the four supreme beings.
In that case, no matter what happens, the most important thing is to leave here first.
If Wu Rulong still chases after us after we return to the Li Dynasty, we will have no choice but to ask the Quasi-Emperor to kill him.
"Humph, from today on, my Wu Chamber of Commerce will launch a full-scale attack on the Li Dynasty's industries! We will fight to the death!"
After Wu Rulong finished speaking, he stood up and prepared to leave, but then he thought of something and looked at Chen Ze and others with a sneer.
"Following His Majesty like this, is it very impressive to be at the Supreme Realm? Is it very prestigious to carry the Nine Dragons?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Ze and others dared not say anything, but Wu Rulong did not give up. He looked at Li Xukun and sneered.
"Eat shit!"
