Emperor Xiang's face turned pale, filled with regret. "This was the Wu Clan's idea, not mine! Immortal Lord, for the sake of justice, surely would not want to see the people of Xiliang become war slaves and suffer in dire straits! Consider this not for Xiliang, but for the sake of the millions of ordinary people in Xiliang. Immortal Lord, please lend a helping hand."
"Then this Immortal Lord would like to ask you, do you think dignity is more important, status and glory are more important, or the survival of the country is more important?" Yun Miao asked.
Although Emperor Xiang was puzzled as to why Yun Miao asked him this, he still answered honestly, "In the face of the survival of the country, dignity and honor are not worth mentioning."
"In that case, I hope the Western Emperor will remember what he said. This Immortal Lord promises you that I will go and negotiate with the Tiansheng Kingdom..." Yun Miao gave in.
Emperor Xiang was overjoyed: "Thank you, Immortal Lord!"

Emperor Xiang was confused and said speechlessly, "Did you get a cramp in your eye? Hurry up and bring that bastard up here for us to see. If it weren't for that bastard, would our Xiliang Kingdom be in its current predicament?" He bowed with both hands and looked up at Yun Miao and said, "My Immortal Lord, you don't know. If it weren't for that Yun Miao, our Xiliang Kingdom could have easily conquered Yicheng this time. And Yun Miao is a special existence to the entire Tiansheng Kingdom. Although he can't be killed now and needs to be used as a bargaining chip, we should teach him a lesson before killing him. It would be best to hang him at the gate of Luoyuan City to poke Tiansheng's arrogance!"
