Chapter 41: Will tens of millions of people be killed?



Dongfang Luotian also knew the pros and cons. Sending troops was a must, otherwise they would be at a disadvantage if the Jiyuan Empire investigated later. He took the opportunity to say, "Prince Consort, I can decide to divide 80% of the interests of the four dynasties, which you can use as you see fit."

Upon hearing this, Chu Di knew that Dongfang Luotian had shown great sincerity, so he stopped worrying and, knowing that making money was the right thing to do, stood up and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, since that's the case, I'm confident I can persuade my senior brother to mobilize manpower to wipe out the remnants of the demonic path in the four great dynasties!"

After thinking for a moment, Chu Di continued, "But since they can seek help from my Fire Maple Dynasty, they will inevitably seek help from other dynasties as well. If they can get reinforcements from other dynasties to suppress the rebellion, they still won't be able to solve the root problem. At that time, if we send troops again, we will surely gain even more benefits!"

The others nodded in agreement. Dongfang Luotian said, "The Prince Consort will be in full charge of tomorrow's negotiations. You, the Prime Minister, will assist him. Just report back to me with the results. Let's talk about the Prince Consort's wedding date. I think three days from now will be an auspicious day. What do you all think?"

Chu Di felt that the emperor wished he could send the Seventh Princess to his bed tonight, and he was really worried that he would run away!

Thinking about it, it's not the emperor's fault. He learned from Lin Yangtian how terrifying the Gold and Silver Sect was—a sect that treated those in the Unity Realm as ants!

They knew that the empire's formidable power stemmed from the existence of the Unity Realm, but now that a sufficiently powerful sect had appeared within its borders, every dynasty wanted to forge a good relationship with it.

It is said that the Ji Yuan Empire was originally just a small kingdom that was even less powerful than them. However, it gradually rose to prominence by befriending a powerful sect, eventually forming a situation where five great empires stood side by side!

It's easy to see how important the Gold and Silver Gate is to them right now!

They were unsure of the temperament of the Holy Son of the Golden and Silver Gate, and Chu Di was their best choice!

Chu Di can now be described as a carp leaping over the dragon gate, soaring to new heights!

...

The four envoys of the dynasty sat nervously in the hall, looking at the other three with wary expressions!

The reason is simple: they know that even if the Fire Maple Dynasty sends experts and troops to rescue their country, with their current national strength, they can only choose one of them and cannot fight fires everywhere.

They also knew that since the Fire Maple Dynasty was able to suppress rebellions and even eliminate those who practiced demonic arts, it was the strongest dynasty in the vicinity and the one most worthy of attention.

Moreover, news came from their people in the Fire Maple Dynasty that this demonic cultivator was actually a Unity Realm expert, which made them feel deeply terrified. At the same time, they were also curious about how the Fire Maple Dynasty had overcome its difficulties and what amazing background it had!

After all, the Unity Realm is considered a strategic reserve within the empire, and it's not something that can be easily deployed!

In their own imaginations, the rescue of the Fire Maple Dynasty was a must, and the first thing to do was to eliminate their competitors!

As the four waited anxiously, a young man entered the hall.

The group followed the gaze and all showed expressions of surprise!

Those who managed to break through the encirclement and arrive here are themselves masters.

Some were worshippers of their respective dynasties, and some were even ancestors of the royal family. They could tell at a glance that the young man had actually reached the level of a grandmaster.

They had never seen such a young master before.

A glimpse reveals the whole picture; the Fire Maple Dynasty's foundation is truly formidable!

The young man, in his early twenties, clasped his hands in greeting and said, "Chu Di of the Fire Maple Dynasty greets all seniors!"

He did not address them as envoys, but used respectful language, clearly indicating that he had already discerned their cultivation level!

The men's expressions turned serious, realizing that Chu Di had seen through them. They immediately returned the greeting, saying, "We greet Young Master Chu."

Chu Di did not reveal his position in the court, so they could only address each other as "Prince".

"Young Master Chu has already achieved such cultivation at such a young age; his future achievements are limitless!"

"Yes, my grandson is over thirty and still can't stand on his own. He's nowhere near as good as Young Master Chu!"

The group showered the enemy with compliments, not only because of the prevailing trend, but also because of the enemy's own achievements.

"Please take your seats, everyone. You seniors represent the foundation of your respective dynasties. I, Chu Di, am merely an insignificant constable in the court, which is hardly worthy of praise. I still have much to learn from you seniors in many areas," Chu Di said politely.

No one would ever regard Chu Di as an ordinary constable, unless they were stupid.

"Young Master Chu is too modest. We never expected to meet such an outstanding young talent as Young Master Chu. We are truly honored!"

Chu Di chuckled and said, "Yesterday I returned to the capital to meet His Majesty and told him the purpose of your visit. The matter is urgent, so let's get back to the main topic."

"Yes, yes, yes, I'm sure Young Master Chu already has a plan in mind. The situation in our country is really not optimistic and cannot be delayed. Young Master Chu, please speak frankly."

None of these individuals were envoys by profession, and they disliked diplomatic rhetoric.

Chu Di clapped his hands, and an old man walked in from outside the door. It was Xue Gui!

“This is a demonic person who has wreaked havoc on my dynasty.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the group stood up in alarm, their faces full of vigilance.

"Everyone, don't be alarmed. This man's name is Xue Gui. My senior brother has sealed his cultivation, so he can no longer cause trouble!"

Upon hearing this, the group relaxed, but their bodies remained tense.

"Young Master Chu's senior brother? May I ask which sect your esteemed sect is...?"

"I am fortunate to have joined the Gold and Silver Sect. As for information about my senior brother, I cannot disclose it. I hope you will forgive me."

Chu Di knew that his senior brother was the type to make a fortune quietly and didn't want to be disturbed by irrelevant people.

You have to do this hard work of making money yourself!

Based on his understanding of Meng Fan, he would delegate any money-making matters to others.

For example, he heard from the Sweeping Monk that a few days ago, a eunuch named Cao Zhengchun, who was by Meng Fan's side, actually extorted a huge sum of money from a very wealthy man. The method was so low and embarrassing!

None of them had ever heard of the Gold and Silver Sect, so it must be a hidden sect.

But that doesn't diminish their fear of the Gold and Silver Gate!

According to the intelligence they possessed, the demonic cultivator before them was suspected to be at the Unity Realm!

Of course, this was information deliberately released by the enemy of Chu.

Releasing Xue Gui now is merely to let them hear the Demonic Path's plan firsthand, so that they can gain even greater benefits.

"You can ask him any questions you have, and I guarantee he will answer them to the best of his ability."

The elder from the Yun Sheng Dynasty immediately became restless and tentatively asked, "What is your background, and what plans do you have for my Yun Sheng Dynasty?"

Xue Gui was completely subdued by Chu Di, and of course, he was terrified of the Life and Death Talisman! Especially with Meng Fan's presence, he even began to doubt the martial arts!

"My name is Xue Gui, and I come from the Blood God Sect. The sect leader's goal is to instigate a war between the five great dynasties and collect the blood essence of tens of millions of people to break through to the next realm."

"Tens of millions?"

Everyone gasped. The average population of each state was only a few million, and the population of each dynasty was roughly tens of millions. The total number of troops was no more than a million. If tens of millions of people were to be sacrificed, how huge a war would that be? How many civilians would be slaughtered?
