Chapter 881: Ruolan King

~11 min read 2,092 words

After Xu Qing sat down, the entire hall was silent.

Until more than ten breaths passed, as the representatives of the Bai Ze and Si E clans stood up silently and returned to their desks, each of them had their momentum completely reversed from just a moment ago.

Toward Xu Qing, they were fearful, hateful, and shocked; overall, fear and shock occupied the majority.

Especially among them, there were a few who had seen Xu Qing's murderous scene in the Mountain and Sea Domain of the second pass.

At that time, if it weren't for Xu Qing wanting to kill Ji Dongzi, they would have had no hope of surviving.

In the end, it was entirely by luck that they escaped.

Added to Xu Qing's series of experiences in Yanyue Xuantian, it could be said that he suppressed the contemporary era. So to some extent, the Yanyue side knew Xu Qing's terror better than the human race.

And the battle with Yan Xuanzi was the final word, making everyone on the Yanyue side who still had doubts feel shocked.

The Bai Ze and Si E naturally knew this clearly. In addition, they also saw clues from Fan Shishuang—Fan Shishuang was clearly hiding from Xu Qing...

So at this moment, Xu Qing sat there, and the Bai Ze and Si E were each bitter in their hearts.

But the human side was naturally different. All human cultivators were excited, especially after noticing the state of the alien races who were arrogant just a moment ago, they felt greatly comforted in their hearts.

The First Prince, on the other hand, was not surprised by this, and at the same time, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If it weren't for his excessive awe of Xu Qing, not daring to personally propose to the Emperor, he would have long wanted to invite the Grand Tutor to come forward.

At this moment, having a backbone, he raised his chin, looking high-spirited, but he didn't speak immediately.

"Need to stew a bit. When their pressure reaches a certain level and they just want to end today's negotiation immediately, that is the best opportunity to exit."

The First Prince thought of this and simply stood up, respectfully coming to Xu Qing's side, personally pouring tea for Xu Qing, kneeling and sitting on the side in the posture of a student.

In fact, he was indeed a student.

Xu Qing, as the Imperial Tutor, was the teacher of all princes, and any prince or princess had to be under his management.

Xu Qing opened his eyes and looked at the First Prince beside him.

The First Prince lowered his head.

Although Xu Qing didn't speak, with his experience, he naturally saw the First Prince's thoughts. He didn't mind, raised his hand to pick up the teacup, and took a sip.

Time passed...

Half an hour passed. On the human side, those who could participate in this negotiation were naturally not stupid people. Everyone saw the current advantage and understood how to maximize this advantage.

So one by one, they looked at their noses, noses at their mouths, all remaining silent.

Ruolan King simply meditated.

But the Bai Ze and Si E were under too much pressure, each calling out bitterness in their hearts. They naturally saw the clues, but this kind of thing was not something one could ignore just by seeing it.

The invisible presence from Xu Qing's status made their pressure grow greater and greater as time passed.

Until an hour later, the Heavenly King of the Bai Ze clan sighed softly.

And the First Prince, seeing that the heat was about right, spoke to the representatives of the Bai Ze and Si E clans.

"The areas occupied by your two clans will be returned within half a month after the contract is signed. Everything inside must be as usual. If there is destruction or looting of resources, they must be returned in kind.

Regarding the clause of redeeming clansmen, I already agreed to it before, so I won't go back on my word!

As for the transaction of secret techniques between clans, it is still as said before, thirty for one. If your side agrees, the contract can be set today, and we can end early. After all, it's been more than a month."

The First Prince spoke meaningfully.

The Bai Ze and Si E heard this and sighed secretly in their hearts. In fact, this war, under Yanyue's order, was impossible to continue.

However, according to their understanding of Yanyue, under the premise of a ceasefire, through negotiation, "willingly" with the human race, to obtain benefits, Yanyue naturally couldn't stop it.

Similarly, if they couldn't obtain it, they couldn't blame others.

The pulling and proportion in this were extremely important.

But now... everything was impossible.

Xu Qing was the Great Xuantian of Yanyue, and Fan Shishuang was clearly afraid. As a result, the result of dragging it out was that Fan Shishuang, in order to end it early and leave here, would likely be even worse than now.

You know, in these days, Fan Shishuang had already urged them impatiently many times.

Thinking of this, the representatives of both the Bai Ze and Si E clans looked at each other, finally gritted their teeth, stood up and bowed toward Xu Qing, and then spoke to the First Prince.

"Can!"

Sign the contract today!

The First Prince saw that it was so smooth, his heart was excited, and other human cultivators were the same. Everyone immediately began to adjust the contract content and prepared quickly.

Xu Qing still closed his eyes, thinking about his own comprehension.

Just like this, another stick of incense passed. The human race and the two vassal clans of Yanyue signed the clan luck on the contract. Afterward, the Bai Ze and Si E bowed to Xu Qing again, and one by one flew away quickly.

By this time, Xu Qing also opened his eyes and declined the invitation of the crowd.

Just as he was about to leave the Foreign Affairs Pavilion, Ruolan King suddenly stepped forward.

"Zhencang King, please stay."

Xu Qing turned his head upon hearing this, looking at the only female cultivator among the Heavenly Kings.

"I don't know what Ruolan King has?"

"Zhencang King, after the ancestor worship, I will leave the Imperial Capital and head to the border with the Soul Wolf Heavenly Demon Clan to guard there."

"I want to invite Zhencang King to go with me and live there for a period of time..."

Xu Qing frowned. The other party's words were called an invitation, but there was no cause, and it was so abrupt. Especially thinking of this Ruolan King's reputation, how could Xu Qing agree.

Thus, he emitted a calm voice.

"Xu's cultivation is weak, it's meaningless to go, and I have other important matters."

Xu Qing politely declined.

But that Ruolan King ignored Xu Qing's refusal and continued to speak on her own.

"The Soul Wolf Heavenly Demon Clan, although not a strong clan, possesses quite a few resources within their clan, which are of great use to the rise of our human race. I plan to find a reason there to provoke this clan to take action, so as to send troops to this clan."

"Zhencang King, as a human Heavenly King and also with the status of Great Xuantian, your strength is not important. What I need is for you to exert your status as Great Xuantian when the time comes."

Ruolan King's words were as stiff as before, and she even made arrangements for Xu Qing.

Xu Qing had seen quite a few Sovereign God powerhouses, but someone like Ruolan King was the first time.

He simply ignored her, his body flickered, and he was about to leave.

But at this moment, Ruolan King frowned.

"Zhencang King, this matter is beneficial to the human race. Why do you refuse? Don't leave yet, let's discuss it in detail."

As she said this, she actually raised her hand and grabbed toward Xu Qing.

Under this grab, the surrounding laws flashed instantly, and a power of detention erupted suddenly.

The First Prince and others who were walking out of the hall at this moment saw this scene, and their expressions changed drastically. The First Prince even shouted urgently.

"Ruolan King, what are you doing!"

"I'm not doing anything, just asking Zhencang King to stay and talk."

Ruolan King spoke faintly, her raised right hand not stopping at all, still grabbing.

Heaven and earth shook. The laws emitted by Ruolan King formed a giant hand, and just as it was about to fall on Xu Qing, the next instant, a tender green vine flew out from Xu Qing's palm at an incredible speed.

The meaning of the Great Wilderness was directly emitted, and the aura of the starry sky also rose, turning into an astonishing power, whipping toward the giant hand formed by the laws.

It was precisely the Holy Heaven Divine Vine that Xu Qing had absorbed two months ago!

After two months of feeding, this vine could initially form combat power and also emitted its terrifying aspects. Seeing it whip down, it actually ignored the laws.

With a boom, the giant hand collapsed instantly, falling apart.

Xu Qing looked coldly at Ruolan King.

Ruolan King frowned, looking back at Xu Qing.

The First Prince and others saw this and hurried forward to stop them. The First Prince even glared at Ruolan King.

"Ruolan King, although you are a Heavenly King, you took the initiative to attack the Grand Tutor in the Imperial Capital. I will definitely report this to the Emperor!"

Ruolan King didn't speak.

Xu Qing narrowed his eyes. He instinctively felt that Ruolan King's attack must contain deep meaning, but he couldn't understand the truth for a moment, so after pondering, he turned around and was about to leave.

But that Ruolan King didn't know what she was thinking, actually stepping over the First Prince and walking into the sky.

"Zhencang King, I have no malice toward you. The attack just now was just to make you stay. Now, I still say the same thing: stay, and I will discuss with you about the proposal I just made."

Amidst her words, King Nuolan raised her right hand again. This time, as her cultivation base circulated, more power of the laws gathered from all directions, forming a cloud of mist that manifested into a giant face, heading toward Xu Qing.

But just as it approached, a heaven-shaking sword intent rose from Xu Qing's body.

The shadow of the Emperor's Sword shone in the sky. With one sword falling, the mist face formed by the laws was instantly cut into two halves, each rolling backward, destroying everything.

And the sword shadow didn't stop, falling from top to bottom toward Ruolan King.

At this moment, Ruolan King's expression, which had been calm from beginning to end, changed drastically.

"Emperor's Sword!!"

Her body retreated rapidly.

But the sword shadow was unstoppable, its speed astonishing. Not only did it not slow down in the slightest, but it was even faster, about to fall.

And at this moment, a sigh came from the void. Zhenyan King's figure appeared between Xu Qing and Ruolan King, with his back to Xu Qing, actually wanting to use his body to block it.

Toward Zhenyan King, Xu Qing felt respect in his heart. Seeing this scene, he sighed secretly, and with a wave of his hand, the sword shadow disappeared instantly, leaving only the wind sweeping through the four directions.

Zhenyan King didn't turn around, but looked coldly at Ruolan King.

"I don't care if you really want Zhencang King to help you, or if you intend to use him as bait to win the war you want to launch."

"Or perhaps, this is the force behind you trying to test something."

"But, Ruolan King, I warn you and the people behind you, if there is a next time, I will suppress you!"

Ruolan King was silent, didn't speak, and turned to leave.

Zhenyan King narrowed his eyes and spoke faintly.

"I said next time I will suppress you, I didn't say this time you can not pay any price. One arm, and within a hundred years, unless the human race breaks out in a great war, it cannot be restored!"

In mid-air, Ruolan King paused, raised her right hand and tore off her left arm directly, flicked it, and her figure disappeared. ===== CHAPTER 882 =====
