Chapter 1321
Three hundred years later, it's still like this!
Otherwise, they wouldn't have formed a separate country.
"Exactly!"
"General Su, I'll report to Your Majesty right away!"
Before Su Yang could say anything, the two beast-taming gatekeepers rushed toward Huanggongda Sect.
After running a few steps, one of the beast-taming gatekeepers awkwardly stopped.
"General Su, please come in!"
"No need to announce me?"
"No need!" the beast-taming gatekeeper smiled respectfully. "Your Majesty instructed us that if General Su visits, no announcement is required."
"Good!"
Su Yang nodded in satisfaction.
Tang Xuanhui still knows how to be sensible.
Under the guard's lead, Su Yang had just arrived when, two minutes later, Tang Xuanhui in a dragon robe came out to greet him.
Tang Xuanhui smiled warmly: "General Su, it's been a long time!"
"It hasn't been that long!" Su Yang disliked such pleasantries; he preferred to get straight to the point. "Find a quiet place. I have something to discuss with you."
"Good!" Tang Xuanhui paused, startled. "General Su, this way, please."
He instinctively felt this matter must be extraordinary.
Otherwise, Su Yang wouldn't have come here in person.
Entering Tang Xuanhui's study, he closed the door behind them.
Tang Xuanhui was open and unafraid Su Yang might attack him.
Because he knew well: if Su Yang truly intended to kill him, even with guards present, he couldn't stop it—he was already the top expert in Tang Kingdom.
"General Su, what's the matter?"
Su Yang said gravely: "This matter is known only to the highest echelons of the Huaxia Federation. Across the entire continent, no one else besides the Huaxia Federation should know."
Spatial fusion points: three on Shuilan Star.
One is near the southeast coast of the Huaxia Federation.
One is sealed off by the Mermaid Clan.
The third is in Antarctica, near the territory of an Emperor-grade ferocious beast.
Human factions truly know of this only through the Huaxia Federation, and only Su Yang can obtain intelligence from Seeing Xiao Shan.
"I'm telling you this, but you absolutely must not leak it!"
"Your Majesty… I swear!"
"If you leak it, I'll kill you!"
"Understood!"
Tang Xuanhui nodded.
Su Yang briefly informed Tang Xuanhui of the impending sea beast tide—unprecedented in scale—and the fusion of Shuilan Star with the Ferocious Beast World, where Shuilan Star's beast tamers might face far stronger ferocious beasts and possibly be plundered by interdimensional beast tamers.
"I know you're comfortable here as emperor," Su Yang said quietly, "but I still need to warn you—you're still Huaxia people! I just want to ask: what are your plans?"
"What plans do I have?" Tang Xuanhui sighed. "We can't go back. We're not like General Su—you cross oceans like it's a vacation."
"What if… I could bring all of you back?" Su Yang stared into Tang Xuanhui's eyes, seriously asking, "What would you choose?"
"This…"
Tang Xuanhui hesitated.
Su Yang sighed inwardly, as if confirming his suspicion.
People always have ambition.
Once accustomed to being emperor, having supreme power for so long, one doesn't want to be ruled by others again.
Tang Xuanhui asked cautiously: "If we go back, will my subjects still be alive?"
"Are you joking?" Su Yang sneered. "Go back, and you still want to be emperor? Do you expect me to kneel before you?"
Cold sweat broke out on Tang Xuanhui's forehead.
"How could that be?"
"Tell me your choice!"
"I, I…"
"Hmph!" Su Yang looked coldly at Tang Xuanhui. "Still unwilling to give up the throne, right?"
Tang Xuanhui smiled awkwardly.
"If it weren't for your past contributions, I'd punch your head off!"
"General Su, could you take some members of the Tang family back? Just enough to reconnect with our ancestral roots?"
Good heavens!
Is he trying to establish a branch of the Tang family?
"What about everyone else?"
"This…"
"I won't say more!" Su Yang said. "I give you one choice: issue a proclamation. If anyone wishes to return to Huaxia, I'll take them back."
Tang Xuanhui: "But…"
"No 'buts.' I'm not negotiating with you!" Su Yang spoke slowly, each word deliberate. "Treat this as an order. Understood? If you refuse, I'll replace you with someone who obeys me."
"I understand, I understand!"
"Don't try anything clever. If I find out, you won't need to stay alive!"
"Three cities, not far. I'll give you nine days to gather everyone who wants to return to the Federation. I'll take them back myself!"
"Understood!"
Nine days, with Tang Xuanhui, Emperor of Tang, personally delivering the notice — there was still time…
The moment Su Yang finished speaking, he vanished from right before Tang Xuanhui's eyes.
Tang Xuanhui stared at the spot where Su Yang had disappeared, his expression shifting between dark and uncertain. But in the end, he still chose to obey Su Yang's order.
Su Yang's threat to kill him was no joke.
And Su Yang's orders were something he couldn't resist either!
Back in the Federation, Su Yang exchanged a word with Marshal Xu, and Marshal Xu immediately agreed to his proposal.
First, it was Su Yang's request.
Second, the Hua people overseas were still Hua people.
Three hundred years ago, the Hua Federation had no way to bring them back. Three hundred years later, now that they had the ability, they ought to bring them home… as long as those people were still willing to return!
Marshal Xu planned to send that batch of overseas Hua people separately to the cities of the Hua Federation's southwest, west, and north.
Exactly where to send them would be decided by the Southwest Military Command, the West Military Command, and the Northern Military Command.
Even if two or three hundred thousand people from Tang returned to the Hua Federation, as long as they were dispersed across the various cities, it wouldn't impose too great a burden.
Su Yang fully endorsed Marshal Xu's thinking.
If the numbers were too concentrated, it could easily place an enormous burden on a single city.
