C26 King Gu Yue

Guyue Country, Yue City, Imperial Palace.

Prince of Gu Yue, Gu Qi, swept his gaze across the crowd and slowly said, "Saint Son Of The Blue Lotus is about to arrive. In the future, this place will become his fiefdom. How do I deal with my Guyue Country? What plans do the various officials have?"

Inside the hall, the officials were speechless.

Although Real Martial Holy Land was said to dominate the eastern part of the Canglan Continent, it was a remote place with a poor location and scarce resources. As a result, the Real Martial Holy Land had always been a piece of cake and had never placed the boundaries of the Guyue Country in their hearts.

And it was also because of this, that Gu Qi and his subjects had long regarded everything here as their personal property, and now that the entire Guyue Country had suddenly been included in Ye Xuan's feudal fiefdom, Gu Qi and his subjects naturally could not accept this.

From today onwards, all the cultivation resources in the entire Guyue Country will be given to Ye Xuan, and they who have always controlled life and death to seize power, will lose all power. Only the commoners in the Guyue Country will remain within their jurisdiction.

"You are willing to lose all of this?" Gu Qi saw that the officials were silent and felt annoyed.

After a long while, a white-haired Old Official raised his head, "Imperial Lord, it is Saint Son Of The Blue Lotus after all. Even if we are unwilling, so what?"

What the white-haired Old Official said was obviously what the other ministers were thinking, so they all nodded in agreement.

It wasn't that they were willing to give up everything they had. It was just that Saint Son Of The Blue Lotus had a high status and they were powerless.

Gu Qi felt helpless. After hearing Saint Son Of The Blue Lotus's name, the ministers in front of him had already been thrown into disarray.

Relying on the management of generations of ancestors, the Gu family had gone from a mortal royal family to the entire Royal family cultivating martial arts. They had spent a lot of time and effort in cultivating, and now, Gu Qi wanted him to give up on them, how could he agree?

Surrendering jurisdiction meant that the Gu Family wouldn't be able to casually use cultivation resources from the Guyue Country like they did in the past. The entire Royal Family might not be completely exhausted, but it would no longer have the chance to grow stronger.

"Hehehe, the Ancient Kingdom's King seems to be troubled."

A voice suddenly rang out, and by the time the voice fell, the person had already appeared in the main hall.

"Jiang Yanchen!" Upon seeing the newcomer, Gu Qi was startled.

Jiang Yanchen, Grass Holy Land Ninth Prince, had an outstanding talent since he was young. Although he did not have the title of Holy Son, his cultivation had already reached the late stage of the Origin Core Stage at the age of fourteen.

Recently, Jiang Yanchen had returned to the Great Jiang Dynasty and took over a portion of the army there. Almost every month, he would cross the ocean to attack the Guyue Country.

Gu Qi did not know how much suffering Gu Qi's officials had suffered under his hand. Therefore, how could Gu Qi not be alarmed when Jiang Yanchen suddenly appeared.

All the ministers in the hall turned pale as well. They focused their attention on Jiang Yanchen, afraid that he would suddenly attack.

"I heard that Saint Son Of The Blue Lotus will arrive soon. I wonder if the ancient country's lord has any plans?" Jiang Yanchen chuckled, ignoring the expressions of the other officials.

Gu Qi's face darkened as he said in a deep voice: "What does this have to do with your Great Jiang Dynasty?"

"Hehe, your Guyue Country and my Great Jiang Dynasty are still considered neighbors after all. Now that this close neighbour of mine suddenly wants to change master, how could I, Jiang Yanchen, not have made plans earlier?" A trace of an evil smile appeared on Jiang Yanchen's face.

"Humph!" Gu Qi wanted to retort, but he didn't know what to say.

Jiang Yanchen moved slightly and walked in front of Old Official. With a kick, Jiang Yanchen kicked him away and then sat down on his seat.

Old Official glanced at Jiang Yanchen. He didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction, and obediently retreated to the side.

"Jiang Yanchen, don't be too presumptuous!" When Gu Qi saw this, he flew into a rage. Jiang Yanchen's actions simply did not put him, the King of Gu Yue, in his eyes.

Jiang Yanchen continued to smile. He stretched out a finger and shook it lightly, "State Lord Gu, you are too busy taking care of yourself right now. Instead of thinking about a solution, you are still meddling in these trivial matters. It really disappoints me."

"What do you want?" After hearing Jiang Yanchen's words, Gu Qi gradually calmed down.

"The so-called clothes are not as good as the new, and the people are not as good as the new! If we suddenly change masters, and if our characters are too hostile, then my royal father won't be as easy to talk to as me. At that time, I'm afraid the citizens of Guyue Country will have to suffer! " There was a hint of threat in Jiang Yanchen's tone.

At this time, how could Gu Qi not understand Jiang Yanchen's meaning. It was obvious that Great Jiang Dynasty also did not wish to see Ye Xuan take control of the territory. After all, as Saint Son Of The Blue Lotus, whether it was potential or background, he, Gu Qi, could not compare to Ye Xuan.

Gu Qi's heart skipped a beat: "Your Great Jiang Dynasty is willing to help?"

"The Ancient Kingdom's King is a wise man. I don't think I need to say something that he doesn't understand, right?" Jiang Yanchen smiled faintly.

Gu Qi nodded. He understood Jiang Yanchen's meaning clearly.

If he had Great Jiang Dynasty, Gu Qi felt that he would be able to compete with Wu Tie. Not to mention taking Wu Tie into account, at least equally, with only half of the power, Gu Qi could still do it.

Before Gu Qi could reply, a handsome man dressed like a court official stood up abruptly and said loudly, "Imperial Father, this ambition and its accomplices are undoubtedly scheming against each other, not to mention Saint Son Of The Blue Lotus's noble identity …"

"Hmm?" Without waiting for him to finish, killing intent surged in Gu Qi's eyes.

The next moment, Gu Qi appeared beside the man. He stretched out his hand and picked him up: "You're just like an ant, how dare you interrupt."

"Ah …" The man screamed out in pain before stopping abruptly. He was directly killed by Gu Qi's Yuan Power shock wave.

"Who else dares to be so talkative?" Gu Qi swept a glance at the officials and said coldly.

The officials kept quiet and bowed their heads.

"Pah!" Pow! "Pah!"

Jiang Yanchen's crisp applause rang out in the hall, but none of the officials seemed to have heard it.

"If the ancient country lord had such boldness, why would he be afraid of Ye Xuan?" Jiang Yanchen smiled.

Gu Qi didn't pay attention to Jiang Yanchen's words. He sat back on the Dragon Throne and asked, "What plans do you have?"

"Saint Son Of The Blue Lotus and Ye Xuan are only at Origin Core Stage." Jiang Yanchen said lightly.

Gu Qi's pupils shrank and became alert immediately, "Jiang Yanchen, what do you mean by that?"

"Does the Ancient Kingdom's Lord not understand?" Jiang Yanchen stared at Gu Qi and a trace of ridicule flashed across his eyes.

"You dare …" Gu Qi was shocked when he heard this. At most, he only wanted to get some of the power from Ye Xuan, but in reality, he didn't even have the thought of getting rid of Ye Xuan.

And now, Jiang Yanchen actually wanted to kill Ye Xuan. How could Gu Qi not be shocked. If Jiang Yanchen really wanted Ye Xuan to die, it would undoubtedly be a great disaster for him.

When the Real Martial Holy Land was investigated, Jiang Yanchen could just pat his butt and leave, but how could he, the King of Gu Yue, run away?
