Yaohe didn't expect that his well-intentioned advice would instead create a rift between himself and his brother the king.
But he knew his brother's character very well, and understood that if he failed to persuade him, it would be even more impossible for anyone else to succeed.
Yaohe did not want to make things difficult for his brother, but this war had indeed caused great losses to the clan. So many good men were killed in Zhongzhou, and even their bodies could not be returned to their hometown, but were left lying in a foreign land.
Since the war began, the tribe had been crying non-stop. Everywhere, the tribesmen were heartbroken after hearing the news of the death of their relatives and friends. He saw it with his own eyes and felt the pain in his heart.
Originally they should have been able to live happily with their relatives and friends, but now they are separated by life and death and will never see each other again.
Although his people inherited an innate hatred for humans from their ancestors, after thousands of years of living away from humans, their hatred for humans is actually nothing.
Everyone still shouts "hateful humans" and "damn humans", but in fact, Yao and Bai understand that most of them are just curse words, and everyone is just used to saying them on a daily basis.
But what the prince was planning to do now was to drag the people into the endless abyss again. He absolutely could not let that happen.
So, Yao He ignored Yao Li's ugly face and tried to persuade him again: "Brother Wang! I understand that you want your people to live a better life, but now the Emperor Wu Barrier has been restored to its original state, and the magic... holy sword has been lost. We can no longer go to Zhongzhou. Even if you want to attack Zhongzhou, there is no way. Why do you have to be so persistent about this? You might as well relax and let it go."
The reason they were able to open the passage to Zhongzhou this time was all thanks to the magic shackle. Now that the magic shackle is gone, how can they go to Zhongzhou? Thinking of this, Yaohe suddenly felt relieved.
But Yao Li raised his mouth wickedly and said viciously: "Who said that without the holy sword, the king can't break the broken wall?"
Yao He's heart skipped a beat, and he felt that Yao Li's words, which were full of deep meaning, and his cold and gloomy tone were very abnormal. No matter how cold and cruel his brother was before, he would never show such an expression in front of him.
Something is wrong! There is something wrong with Brother Wang! After having this suspicion, Yao He looked at Yao Li again and felt that he was abnormal.
"Brother Wang, what do you mean? Have you already found a way to deal with the Emperor Wu's barrier?" Yao He couldn't tell what was happening to Yao Li, so he could only try to trick him into talking.
Yao Li seemed not to notice Yao He's probing intention. He chuckled twice, flipped his hand, and took out a small bottle.
He shook the bottle in his hand casually and said to Yaohe, "Guess what this is, my brother?"
Yaohe came closer and looked at it carefully for a long time. Finally, he shook his head helplessly and replied, "I don't know. Please tell me something, brother Wang."
Yao Li laughed loudly and said word by word: "It's not a rare thing, just some blood of the Abyss Clan. With this small bottle of blood, let alone the Emperor Martial Barrier, I can take down even the Zhongzhou Region in one fell swoop!"
When Yaohe heard the three words "Abyss Clan", he inevitably shuddered.
"The blood of the Abyss Clan! Brother Wang, are you crazy? You dare to touch this kind of thing that will hurt your enemy by a thousand and hurt yourself eight hundred? No wonder your mental state looks so unstable, it turns out that you are affected by the evil energy in this blood. Now that the influence is not deep enough, let's quickly seal this bottle of blood." Yaohe's face was full of disapproval.
However, these words full of concern had a different meaning in Yao Li's ears. He felt that Yao He was trying to stop him from accomplishing his great cause, and that he was simply a ruthless person.
Seeing Yao Li's face suddenly darken, Yao He thought that he was unwilling to give up, so he continued to persuade him: "Brother Wang, we can think of other ways to deal with the matter of Zhongzhou. The things of the Abyss Clan really cannot be touched. Brother Wang, you must not be infected by the evil spirit!"
A ray of black air flashed in Yao Li's eyes, and he scolded sternly, "You can't do this, and you can't do that. Your Majesty didn't know that your brother was so keen on meddling in other people's affairs, and the one he meddled in was the king of your clan! Your Majesty really indulged you too much, which is why you can't distinguish between the old and the young and the high and the low. Come! Keep Yao and the dungeon under strict guard. Your brother, you should reflect on yourself in the dungeon!"
Yaohe had never thought that his brother had been infected by the evil spirit to this extent. It was all his fault for not being able to discover and stop it in time.
What should we do now? If the bottle of blood of the Abyss Clan is really spilled on the Emperor Martial Barrier, it will be a disaster for both the Central Plains and the Northern Wilderness.
It's a pity that he knew how serious the consequences would be, but he was powerless to stop it.
Not long after Yaohe was imprisoned in the dungeon, Xia Changan received bad news.
After failing to interrogate the giant python, she originally planned to go to Kyoto. But just before she arrived at the palace, Lin Zewu, who was guarding the Emperor Wu barrier, sent her a message.
The message was short, but the content was terrifying. The Emperor Wu Barrier was being eroded by an unknown energy. This time the erosion was no longer a minor one, limited to one place, but was all-round and without blind spots.
Xia Changan was so frightened by this that he almost died, and he rushed to where he was, crawling.
"Greetings, Your Majesty." Lin Zewu and others had their endurance trained by Xia Changan, so they were not surprised to see her arrive so quickly. Instead, they bowed and greeted her calmly.
Xia Changan waved his hand casually, signaling them not to be polite. Looking at the Emperor Wu Barrier that was once again surrounded by black air, Xia Changan wanted to curse.
How long had she just cleared the black energy? It was back again. Moreover, it was still so large in scope. At this rate of erosion, the Emperor Wu Barrier would be destroyed in three days at most.
Even if she had the power of clones, she couldn't clear it all in three days! It seemed that this time, the barrier that had protected humans for thousands of years could no longer be preserved.
Everyone who heard the news had different feelings. Some were frightened, some were sad and reluctant, and some wanted to go find the monster and fight it.
Lin Zewu was the one who wanted to fight the monsters. He blew his beard and glared and said, "Your Majesty! Those monsters are really bullying us too much! I will mobilize the army right now. After three days, we will attack them directly. We will make those beasts pay the price!"
Xia Changan held his forehead helplessly. These people's brain circuits are really amazing. How can they only know how to fight? Don't they know that blocking is better than dredging?
At this time, we should try to negotiate first. If the negotiation fails, we should beat them up, and then continue the negotiation after the beating hurts them.
If they continued to fight in the way Lin Zewu and his men had done, it would be impossible to achieve peace and stability unless they completely annihilated the entire clan of monsters.
Thinking of this, Xia Changan had no choice but to close his eyes and resign himself to his fate. He gave the order: "Just follow General Lin's instructions and dispatch the army to the border. Wait for my news in three days before taking any action."
Lin Zewu did not doubt him and immediately turned around to make arrangements. Unexpectedly, he had only taken a few steps when he heard bursts of exclamations coming from behind him.
"Your Majesty! What are you doing? We don't know what the black gas on the barrier is. You must not approach it!"
"Oh my God! How did Your Majesty get into the Emperor Wu Barrier? Isn't this barrier impenetrable?"
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Please come out quickly!"
What the hell? His Majesty ran into the Emperor Wu's barrier? Lin Zewu was shocked and turned around to look. Sure enough, he found that Xia Changan was no longer there.
"Damn it! What are you guys doing? Why didn't you stop His Majesty? You actually let His Majesty do such a dangerous thing!" Lin Zewu was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, circling around the place where Xia Changan disappeared.
It was not until he sent Xia Changan a message for the thirtieth time that the other party finally responded leisurely.
"I'll go check out the situation first and I'll be back within three days. Stop sending messages!!"
Check out the situation? Where to go?
Lin Zewu jumped up suddenly. Damn it! Your Majesty, you are in a deep tiger's den! The situation in the Northern Wilderness is completely full of monsters.
Humans haven't set foot there for thousands of years. No one knows what the situation is like in the Northern Wilderness. If Your Majesty goes there rashly and is accidentally discovered, I'm afraid there won't even be a complete body left. Is this a good idea?
The Zhongzhou region was in a state of panic because of Xia Changan's departure. Although everyone believed in her ability, the Northern Wasteland was too unfamiliar to them. They really couldn't let go of their worries.
After the panic, everyone's doubts followed. The Emperor Wu Barrier separated the two places. Although it was now being eroded by the black air, its function had not been lost. So how did His Majesty pass through the barrier?
"What's so difficult about this? I have an imperial soul just like Emperor Wu." Xia Changan curled his lips and sent a message to Lin Zewu impatiently.
This old man is really annoying. He kept sending messages even when she told him to stop. If she didn't, he would continue to send messages. It made her feel annoyed.
This Martial Emperor barrier was basically formed by the power of the Human Emperor's Immortal Body. There was no need to be surprised that she could pass through it.
Xia Changan complained while observing the environment of the Northern Wasteland. As she walked, she couldn't help but frown.
The environment of the Northern Wilderness is really... How should I put it? The landform looks a bit like the desert Gobi. In short, it is not a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters.
She had always heard people talk about how ferocious monsters were, but she had never known that the environment they lived in was so bad. No wonder the monsters all had such bad tempers.
Anyone who lives in such a harsh environment all day long would not have a good mentality. Especially after they passed through the barrier and saw the beautiful mountains and rivers of Zhongzhou, they would be even more envious and jealous.
