Chapter 1246
Tang Yue looked at Tang Tian; she was well aware that after recognizing Su Yang's strength, Tang Tian actually had the idea of borrowing Su Yang's power.
If she didn't bring it up, others might not necessarily offer to help on their own.
"No need to bring it up. General Su may have already made his decision. If he truly has no intention, your mentioning it would be useless… If he's willing to go meet Your Majesty, then you take him there!"
"Alright!"
"You should go rest early!" Tang Tian said. "We still have to travel tomorrow. Don't keep General Su waiting."
"Oh right!" Tang Yue walked to the door, then suddenly turned her head back. "Grandpa, you still haven't said why General Su would be willing to stay a few more days!"
Tang Tian said in a low voice, "Wait until you're a little older, and you'll understand!"
Tang Yue pursed her lips, feeling utterly deflated inside.
This was the part about old-timers that wasn't endearing.
Not only did they love putting on airs, they also loved acting profound, and lording their age over others!
The next day, Su Yang took Tang Yue and Liu Mengyun and left Luocheng, flying directly westward.
The Tang Kingdom had three cities: Luocheng, Lin'an City, and Western Jingcheng.
Luocheng was on the coast and was the last to be established.
Lin'an City and Western Jingcheng were slightly more inland. In fact, Lin'an was the capital of the Tang Kingdom.
This country was truly far too small.
To have held out for three hundred years was nothing short of a miracle!
"Why did you build Luocheng on the coast? Aren't you afraid of the Sea Beast Tide?"
"It was at the demand of the Rockefeller Kingdom and the Du Bang Kingdom!" Tang Yue said helplessly. "They hoped we could build a city on the coast to monitor the ocean and share part of the pressure for them. Our Tang Kingdom is weak, so we could only agree. There's no choice!"
"Tang Kingdom?" Su Yang gazed at the sky and rubbed his forehead helplessly. "Your country's name… really wastes such a good country's name!"
"Our family surname is Tang. We used to seem to live on Tang Street, and the Laozu Sect ancestor who named it has long since passed. We Menzhe Gang descendants don't find it easy to change it!" Tang Yue shrugged, indicating she too was powerless. "No way around it, our main ethnic group is too few… the numbers just can't be raised, and our strength can't grow strong."
If it could be raised, that would be the real wonder!
Even the Huaxia Federation was still working hard to maintain its population.
"Have the Sea Beast Tides over the years caused serious losses?"
"Of course serious!" Tang Yue nodded. "I heard the Sea Beast Tides are very fierce, but every one of our Tang Kingdom's Your Majesty has been quite capable. Except for the first Sea Beast Tide catching us off guard, we've been prepared for all the others, preparing for decades."
"That's still alright, fairly competent!" Su Yang thought for a moment. "The Rockefeller Kingdom and the Du Bang Kingdom… these two names, are they their monarchs' surnames?"
The origins of these two kingdoms were unclear even to the two beast-tamers from Shark Fort whom Su Yang had once killed.
"Right!" Tang Yue said. "I heard that before the Great Catastrophe, they were top-tier powers of Beautiful Country, and later they became a nation."
"How are they?"
"They're alright, I guess! Although they also have faith, compared to some other countries that worship cults… at least they're not that crazy. We can barely survive in the cracks!"
"Mm!"
"If we didn't have two King-tier beast-tamers holding things up, we'd have been done for long ago!"
"Indeed!"
Su Yang nodded noncommittally.
In just over half a day's effort, Su Yang caught sight of Lin'an City.
Tang Yue led Su Yang and Sovereign Jiazi into Lin'an City.
