Chapter 178

With a long face, he let out a bitter laugh.

"Wu... my lord, it is not that I am unwilling to send troops to help."

"The truth is that Dali is already a small country with few soldiers, and there is no specific information about that place. Even if we send troops, it would be no different from fishing for a needle in the ocean."

"Not to mention, so many martial artists have come to Dali right now, and the common people still need them to maintain order, to prevent any trouble from arising."

"Furthermore, the lords of the Great Yuan and the Great Tang also want me to send troops."

"Tell me, how should my tiny little country act?"

"No matter which of you I tell first, the wrath of the other two houses—my Dali cannot bear it either."

"So, I ask all you lords to give us Dali a break. We truly do not wish to get involved in this matter."

Having finished speaking.

He looked at them with a face full of hope.

That sincere tone, that moving and expressive manner.

He was just short of squeezing out a few tears.

Although, he could choose to notify all three parties at once upon receiving the news.

But as an emperor.

Even the emperor of a small country like Dali.

He could still see this point clearly!

If he truly said so.

One need not think to know.

All three parties would privately claim to have been notified first, and conceal it from the other two.

When that time comes.

It would be hard not to offend them!

Compared to the wrath borne by the current refusal.

The consequences of doing so would be even more severe!

What's more, if things went badly, he would incur the wrath of the three great emperors.

The entire Dali kingdom would cease to exist!

Thus.

Which is more important, clear at a glance.

Unfortunately.

The scheme was indeed well-planned.

But among those present, which one was easy to deal with?

With just one glance, they saw right through his little scheme.

Yuan Tiangang only gave a cold laugh and snorted.

"Since it involves Master Changsheng, I suppose the importance our three great imperial courts attach to this need not be spelled out, right?"

"Do you truly believe that by not getting involved you can remain safe and sound?"

"Your tiny Dali is nothing more than a speck of a small country. You cannot even bear the wrath of any one of us—could you possibly bear the wrath of all three?!"

"How about this: you send troops to help, and each of our three parties will send one person to stay by your side at all times to protect you."

"Once there is news, you can notify all three of us at the same time. How about it?"

Duan Zhengming was stunned upon hearing this.

A cold laugh involuntarily flashed through his heart.

Protection?

Heh~

That sounds nice!

It's nothing but a veiled threat!

He mocked inwardly.

On the surface, he wore a hesitant expression and looked toward the other two parties.

As if asking for their opinion.

Seeing this.

Although Yuan Tiangang was somewhat displeased, he ultimately did not lose his temper.

Instead, he likewise cast his gaze to the side.

Waiting for their stance.

"This marshal has no objection to this matter."

"But don't blame this marshal for speaking ugly first!"

"If any of you dare harbor even the slightest other scheme."

"Dali will be wiped out!!"

"As for the Great Tang and the Great Yuan, this marshal will take the initiative to request from Your Majesty to lead a team personally and slaughter you all!!"

He swept a cold glance over the three parties.

Bai Qi said in an utterly calm tone.

Only within the lines of his words.

It was filled with blood and slaughter!!

Perhaps.

Only he.

Could speak of a mass burial so casually.

Feeling that overwhelming murderous aura rushing toward him.

Duan Zhengming's face turned slightly pale.

A flash of fear flickered uncontrollably in his eyes!

The great name of the God of Slaughter, Bai Qi—who in all the Nine Provinces does not know it, who has not heard of it?!

Even though he was the Emperor of the Dali Kingdom.

He was still frightened by this terrifying aura that nearly made it impossible to breathe!

A chill ran down his spine!

Yuan Tiangang heard this.

His old face darkened slightly.

His eyes full of displeasure.

He wanted to flare up.

But upon seeing Lord Donghuang and the two others behind the man, he held back.

Master Changsheng's matter was urgent!

It was not the time to cause more trouble!

As for the Great Yuan Imperial Court side.

Meng Chixing, who had not entered the world for many years.

Although he too was thunderstruck by Bai Qi's great name.

After hearing these words.

What he felt more was eager anticipation.

He seemed to want to fight the man, to test his own strength.

But in an instant.

He dismissed the thought.

The reason was simple.

Setting aside whether he could win.

Even if he could win, both sides would inevitably suffer some unnecessary losses.
