Chapter 620: The Treasures of the Li Dynasty

At this, the entire venue was shaken.

Then, everyone watched with their own eyes as Mizuno Masashige instructed his servants to carefully extract that massive piece of white Dragon Saliva Incense from inside the large "dried fish"!

The entire venue was shocked!

The entire venue gasped!

Even Xie Tianyao, who received offerings every year, felt his pupils contract.

This was the first time in his life he had ever seen such a large piece of Dragon Saliva Incense!

A treasure!

If this isn't a treasure, what is?

The entire venue looked at Liu Zheng with meaningful gazes.

How will you play this?

How are you going to play this?

This piece of Dragon Saliva Incense is practically an invincible existence!

Mizuno Masashige also smiled triumphantly.

Crushing the entire venue!

This is the effect of crushing the entire venue!

Who else is there?

He almost burst into loud laughter and asked who else was left.

Looking down upon the heroes!

The feeling of looking down upon the heroes is just wonderful!

He looked toward the distant Prefect Liu, his face filled with disdain.

He looked toward the not-so-distant Iron Wood City and almost raised his middle finger.

"Heavens... it really is Dragon Saliva Incense!"

"It's so fragrant!"

"Top-grade! This is definitely top-grade, national treasure level!"

Everyone in the venue was still exclaiming.

"Hahahaha, good! Good!"

Xie Tianyao was also very happy.

After all, it was his birthday; the more precious the gifts others gave, the more face he had, right?

And so...

He waved his hand.

Liu Zheng was about to cover his face.

Mizuno Masashige laughed heartily and said proudly, "Emperor, Mizuno Masashige has come to court this time not for anything else, but only to take the Longyan Dynasty's greatest treasure, Longyang Princess, back to the Wa nation!"

Everyone who heard this had strange expressions on their faces.

It's here!

A provocation!

A naked provocation!

And so, almost everyone's eyes turned toward Liu Zheng with meaningful intent at the same time.

Prefect Liu, who has always been invincible, can you still hold your ground this time?

Liu Zheng was caught between laughter and tears, standing quietly, neither speaking nor moving, neither anxious nor angry, making it impossible for anyone to discern his emotions.

"Hmph! Pretending!"

Mizuno Masashige snorted coldly; he regretted not seeing the frustration he wanted to see on Liu Zheng's face, but he still felt that he had won this time for sure!

"Good!"

Xie Tianyao smiled and said, "I truly do not know how to reward you for the world's most top-grade Dragon Saliva Incense! Then let us see if you, Mizuno Masashige, have the opportunity to take my beloved daughter back!"

Mizuno Masashige was overjoyed: "Thank you, Emperor!"

Just as the delegation led by Mizuno Masashige stepped down, the entire venue was buzzing with non-stop discussion.

This Offering Ceremony had truly seen one gift surpass the next.

However, now that this Dragon Saliva Incense had appeared, was there anything else that could be more impressive?

Who is next?

Also worth looking forward to is Iron Wood City, who wants to participate in the competition for the Princess! The crowd couldn't help but sneer; besides cattle, sheep, and horses, what else could these Qi tribes have? It seems they are destined to lose this battle.

Next.

Another delegation from a small Nanyang country appeared, but under the explosive effect of this Top-grade Dragon Saliva Incense, no matter what good things they brought out, they seemed completely eclipsed.

Five delegations in a row.

The treasures they brought out were all lackluster... even making people want to doze off under the scorching sun.

Let's wait for Iron Wood City and Prefect Liu...

Almost everyone had this thought.

Even Liu Zheng did.

What would Iron Wood City bring out to show his sincerity?

Eighteen delegations, along with the various Feudatory Kings and Regional Commanders, were almost all finished.

Finally.

Only the last three remained.

Joseon.

Qiang People Royal Court.

And the Prefect Liu of Liangzhou.

No one had expected it.

The Joseon that followed next gave them another huge surprise.

"Kill!"

"Kill them all for me!"

"Kill, leave not one alive!"

In the scorching desert, a group of people wearing incredibly magnificent battle attire were hunting down unarmed men, women, the elderly, and children.

The wails of these people seemed to incite their desire to kill even more, rather than pity.

Fresh blood began to stain the yellow sand here, but soon, this blood-colored grit was covered up again by the yellow sand whipped up by the gale. It was as if nothing had happened here, except for the crows circling in the sky, waiting to swoop down at any moment, wanting to seek remains among the grit, which seemed to prove that a massacre devoid of humanity had just occurred here.

"Hahahaha!"

"Your Highness Prince, not one left, even the cattle and sheep are dead! And so much treasure again!"

These cavalrymen, dressed in very exaggerated and magnificent clothing, swarmed over, dragging one chest after another in their hands, all filled with gold and silver!

At this moment, they excitedly surrounded a man with a full beard.

This man laughed heartily, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes: "Good, keep searching for me! I must say, this Mire family can be considered as wealthy as a nation!"

The crowd laughed along.

"Your Highness, it's just... I heard that these people and this wealth have a deep connection with a noble from the Longyan side... It is the Longyan merchant caravan that cooperated with Mire..."

Someone reminded him from the side.

The bearded man sneered arrogantly: "The Longyan Dynasty? Heh, so what? Can it compare to my Ottoman Empire?"

He said proudly: "My Ottoman spans three continents. That Longyan Dynasty, which calls itself the Celestial Empire, has long been a sick lion. When the iron cavalry of my Ottoman treads beneath its pools, that will be the time of Longyan's destruction. Who is there to fear?"

The others offered all sorts of flattery.

That's right.

This bearded man was the son of the Great Sultan of this Ottoman Empire, Erdogan!

The Sultan's third son, the Third Prince!

Erdogan had a great reputation in the Ottoman Empire and was a notorious tyrant. He had hundreds, if not thousands, of lives on his hands. The powerful Ottoman Empire tolerated his slaughter almost without limit. But precisely because of this, he was loathed by his own elder brother, who claimed to be "benevolent and righteous," and was driven out of Istanbul under a pretext.

But his heart for slaughter had not converged in the slightest.

He believed he had done nothing wrong! That fellow full of benevolence and righteousness was just jealous of his ferocity!

When he had saved up enough of his own army, he would definitely kill his way back to Istanbul!

"Hahahaha, the Arab Empire, completely destroyed..."

"Then next..."

He laughed wildly: "What is our target?"

"The Khwarazmian Empire!"

The group roared like a mountain and a sea.

The twenty thousand cavalry galloped eastward once again.

The entire Central Asia region was almost terrified.

Originally.

Everyone had held no hope for Joseon. After all, this time, Joseon's presence was already very low; apart from that "Rainbow Feather Garment Song," Joseon was an existence that went unnoticed.

Over these years, it had been swallowed up by Wa year after year...

Poor Joseon was left with only a small amount of land.

Of course.

What was eye-catching was also the beauty of this Joseon Princess.

But this time it was a public selection of a husband...

What business was it of your Joseon?

Therefore.

People only felt that Joseon's appearance just meant that the Iron Wood City was next.

However.

When they saw a woman dressed in thin white gauze, stunningly beautiful, appear on stage.

All sleepiness vanished from everyone.

What does this mean?

This Joseon envoy delegation, actually only one person appeared?

And...

Why did she...

Dress so seductively?

Suddenly.

Everyone exploded.

What does this mean?

The gift their Joseon presented was this Princess herself?

"Pfft..."

Xie Tianyao also nearly spat out a mouthful of tea as he watched.

The atmosphere at the scene became somewhat strange for a moment.

Damn it all...

Is this person tired of the Emperor living too long?
