Chapter 211: The Great War of Nations Stirred Up by Fang Can
"Father Emperor, what brings you to summon your son?"
Inside the Great Chu Imperial Palace, Xiang Ziyu was summoned to meet Xiang Hongtu.
Just stepping into the Yongle Dadian, the first thing he saw upon raising his eyes was not only the Chu Emperor, but also Xiang Longtao sitting beside the Chu Emperor...
No, he could no longer be called Xiang Longtao; since Fang Can had beaten him into changing sex, he should be called Xiang Longtao.
At this moment, Xiang Longtao wore unisex clothing, completely lacking his previous wild and fierce appearance, sitting side by side with the Chu Emperor on the wide throne with a calm expression.
'Even after suffering such a major setback, Father Emperor still favors my elder brother so much? Truly the most beloved among all the children.'
Silently suppressing the speculation in his heart, Xiang Ziyu looked up and asked his father Emperor the purpose of summoning him.
"Have you seen the new Tianji List?" Xiang Hongtu looked down at Xiang Ziyu below the steps.
"Enmm..."
He did not expect to hear about Fang Can again after returning to the country; Xiang Ziyu's expression stiffened slightly.
Really, the big and small discussions within the imperial city these past few days had left him speechless.
From "lying-win dog" to a rating of 3.0, can it be calculated like this?
Did he compose poems to disperse the dark clouds?
Did he suppress Fang Can's breakthrough to the First Transformation realm single-handedly for the Great Chu?
Can it be calculated like this?
No!
Other martial artists' combat record: 0-1-0.
Fang Can alone: 600-0-0.
As a top-tier support, his combat record: 0-0-600.
This combat record fully deserves to be called second best in the entire match; can this be counted as a lying win?
Facing the Chu Emperor's inquiry, Xiang Ziyu pondered slightly before replying:
"What Father Emperor asks must be about the Shenglong List and that matter of Fang Can being a furnace vessel."
"Exactly so."
Xiang Hongtu nodded lightly and said, "Even I did not expect that Fang Can's furnace vessel could cultivate over a hundred martial artists into talent within one month."
"Between the nine layers of the Xuan Pass and the Third Transformation, there is actually no essential difference in difficulty; if assisted by massive resources, one can forcibly stack it up."
"The difference is merely that the resources required for the Third Transformation are hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of times greater than for the nine layers."
"Since Fang Can can today cultivate one hundred Sixteen Layers within a month using his own furnace vessel, he could spend ten years cultivating one hundred Third Transformations."
"Fang Can has the potential of the Fourth Transformation; with a thousand-year lifespan, how many subordinates can he cultivate? Moreover, who knows if the power of the furnace vessel will increase after his realm improves."
"If this continues, the danger of Dayan will probably be coming back again."
Xiang Hongtu frowned tightly, deriving a conclusion through logical deduction sentence by sentence.
Even he could not have imagined that the rise and fall of Dayan would depend on Fang Can's—÷.
Leaving other things aside, these ten thousand Third Transformations could crush a nation just by stacking; moreover, what if a few among them are lucky enough to break through to the Fourth Transformation.
Then they could truly wait to die, and the hegemony of Great Chu would turn into a joke.
"Then what does Father Emperor summon your son here for?" Xiang Ziyu asked.
Regarding Fang Can's effect, he had not failed to experience it himself, so he had a rough guess in his heart.
But he still could not figure out the reason why the Chu Emperor specifically called him over to discuss this matter.
"Very simple, I want you to marry Fang Can," Xiang Hongtu said to his daughter with deep meaning.
The young woman who had been pondering looked up in shock: "Ah! Me...?"
"To be precise, it is not you marrying over there, but rather letting Fang Can marry over here."
Xiang Hongtu spoke with fierce eyes: "Such a furnace vessel should be used by our Great Chu to strengthen the power of the Chu State."
"But Fang Can... will definitely not agree," Xiang Ziyu said with slight hesitation.
"If he disagrees, then fight! Declare war on Dayan!"
Xiang Hongtu spoke with cold severity: "Just like a hundred years ago, Fang Can has seriously broken the balance; Fang Can must be captured."
"Even if he dies, he must not die on Dayan's soil; the other various nations must already be unable to sit still and absolutely will not let this opportunity pass."
Xiang Hongtu sneered: "Next, Dayan will prepare to be surrounded and attacked by all nations, and then be forced to hand over Fang Can."
"The best outcome is for Great Chu to obtain the qualification to use the furnace vessel; the middle outcome is for Fang Can to be held in rotation by each nation every other year."
"As for the worst outcome, it would be falling into the hands of other countries or Fang Can dying amidst the flames of war."
'This... this is too miserable.' Thinking of that result, Xiang Ziyu could not help but swallow saliva.
Thinking of Fang Can being like a tool, shuttling between various nations, being defiled by countless people, he inexplicably felt a bit of resentment.
Hating that he was not a Fifth Transformation; such a large-scale adult toy should be exclusively enjoyed by himself.
Leaving aside Xiang Ziyu and the others who wanted to lock the public bus.
The next day, Fang Can, who got up very early, found the Prince of Qing and Old General Yang coming to visit.
'What are these two doing here...'
Hearing the report from outside the door, Fang Can, who had just woken up from a pile of beauties, yawned lightly in a daze.
To celebrate breaking through to the First Transformation, he had played a bit too hard last night, and now his head still had slight twitching.
As for the other people who attended the party?
Fang Can was simultaneously activating an AT Field and connecting offline.
This directly caused these people to enjoy themselves to the point of fainting.
Rubbing his slightly messy white hair, he stood up and picked up the clothes scattered everywhere bit by bit.
As for the benefits of reaching the First Turn, it is that the physical body becomes thoroughly purified, allowing one to completely bid farewell to any physiological needs.
After dressing neatly, Fang Can walked out of the inner room, pushed open the door, and entered the main reception hall.
At this moment, inside the spacious hall, Prince Qing and Old General Yang were already waiting.
"Greetings, Your Highness, Old General Yang!"
Fang Can clasped his hands in salute, then shot a fierce glare at Old Yang with his eyes.
He was still holding a grudge about that fellow pretending to be in the First Turn.
In response, Old Yang could only reveal a simple yet awkward smile.
"No need for such courtesy; we are all acquaintances now." Prince Qing waved his hand, then his eyes brightened:
"You have broken through to the First Turn?"
"I felt the breakthrough yesterday, coinciding with an auspicious time, so I broke through on the spot."
"Excellent, excellent, excellent. Next, spar with Old Yang to quickly familiarize yourself with the wonders of the First Turn," Prince Qing said.
"But has something happened?"
Fang Can asked proactively; in the past, even for meetings, invitations were sent, yet there had never been a single instance of a direct visit.
"Indeed so," Prince Qing sighed: "We just received a letter from Great Chu."
"Is it related to me?"
"They say you molested the Imperial Princess of Great Chu and must take responsibility for it."
Seeing Prince Qing's helpless expression, Fang Can was stunned and said: "Is it that Xiang Ziyu?"
"Yes, and they are urging you to go to Great Chu to marry immediately; otherwise, for the honor of Chu, they will send troops."
"Ah?" Fang Can did not expect this outcome.
"Actually, it is mainly because your furnace vessel has been exposed," Prince Qing looked at Fang Can and said seriously:
"Not only Chu, but other nations are also inviting you to their countries with ill intentions to 'sit for a while'."
"'Sit for a while'..."
Fang Can's mouth twitched; if he sat, could he even return? He feared he would be directly skinned and stripped of his tendons, disappearing forever.
