058-Dong Zhuo in Terror, Yang Gong's Treasury Stirs the Nine Provinces! (Subscribe at your discretion)

Great Qing, Imperial Study.

Compared with Zhao Ji's reaction and thoughts.

Kangxi, who possessed self-knowledge.

His face was both shocked and utterly helpless.

What shocked him was.

On the Nine Provinces Continent, the unrivaled Grand Dragon Head of the Qinglong Society, Ximen Wudi.

His strength was actually even more exaggerated and terrifying than he had imagined!

What left him utterly helpless was.

Knowing full well that the Nine Provinces had such a terrifying, taboo-level existence.

Yet he himself had absolutely no capital to recruit him!

He could only stare wide-eyed and watch helplessly.

This feeling, this sourness, this mood—simply indescribable!!

Most importantly, one point was.

Although Great Qing claimed to be one of the Eight Great Imperial Dynasties.

He knew perfectly well in his heart.

The ones truly worthy of being called imperial dynasties were only Great Qin, Great Yuan, and Great Tang—these three!

As for Great Han and Great Sui, which originally had the qualifications.

They could no longer even take care of themselves now.

Facing the possibility of collapse at any moment, how could they still be called overlords of a realm!

As for Great Ming, Great Song, and Great Qing.

Even though each possessed considerable foundations.

Compared with the three before them, they simply could not be mentioned in the same breath!

Moreover, it was no exaggeration to say.

If not for the concern that pulling one hair would move the whole body.

Great Ming, Great Song, and Great Qing would probably have long become history!

This point.

Could be glimpsed just from Great Han and Great Sui!

Their current state, to say they were declining was no exaggeration.

Any one of Great Qin, Great Yuan, or Great Tang casually dispatching forces would be enough to crush them easily!

It was only because the cake was only so big.

And the emperors of the three great dynasties were all ones who liked to eat alone!

Unwilling to let the other two sides gain an advantage.

That was why they had long hesitated to make a move, while guarding against each other!

Otherwise.

The Nine Provinces of today might only have three great dynasties!

And with the exposure of the Heavenly Dao Golden List, along with the undercurrents stirring in Great Han and Great Sui, a storm was about to break.

He understood.

War, was not far off!!!

This was also why he was so anxious in his heart, yet utterly helpless.

Because.

Once war broke out.

Great Qing, whose national strength was relatively weak.

One need not think to foresee that it would be directly carved up and devoured by the three great dynasties!

How could he, as the lord of the Great Qing Dynasty, be willing to accept such an outcome!!

Great Han, Luoyangcheng.

"Hahaha, destiny is truly on my side!"

"This Heavenly Dao Golden List has come at just the right time!"

Having taken in the contents of the Heavenly Dao Golden List.

Dong Zhuo immediately could not help but throw his head back and laugh loudly.

Compared with other emperors who focused their attention on Ximen Wudi.

What he valued more was still Xunzi's Heavenly Dao reward!

Because in this way.

The Longevity Pill, which had originally been the sole exclusive possession of the Scorpion, now had a second instance!

Even though this one had appeared in Great Qin, the most powerful nation on the Nine Provinces.

But he knew.

In this world, the least lacking thing was people willing to risk their lives!

Thus.

Even though the probability of death heading to Great Qin was higher.

It would inevitably still draw some people's attention there.

With this thought.

The chances of him obtaining the Longevity Pill from Old Immortal Nanhua had risen by quite a bit!

Just this little bit.

How could he not be overjoyed?!

How could he not be thrilled?!

However.

His laughter had not yet faded.

Li Ru's hurried figure appeared within his field of vision.

Without time to catch his breath.

Li Ru spoke in a low voice with a grim face.

"Lord, terrible news!"

"Qin Huang Ying Zheng has discovered your previous movements."

"He has already sent quite a number of Net assassins here to our Great Han!"

"Among the court officials, no fewer than twenty have been killed!"

Dong Zhuo was stunned upon hearing this.

The unrestrained laughter from before abruptly came to a halt.

Because the shift was too sudden.

His old face flushed bright red from it!

But at this moment he could no longer spare any thought for that.

His eyes fixed tightly on Li Ru, his tone filled with tension.

"How many have come?"

"Is their target this Prime Minister?"

"Forget it, quickly go recall my son Fengxian!"

As he spoke.

Whether from nervousness or fear, he did not know.

The fat on his body trembled along with it.

"Lord, do not panic!"

"General Fengxian led fifty thousand troops away not long ago."

"Even if recalled, without three to five days, I'm afraid he won't be able to return."
