Please Don't Give Me the Title of Empress
The War Emperor looked at Luo Zheng and asked, "Luo Zheng, let me ask you this. Have you ever met anyone from the Bai Family of the White Crane Marquis in the South Demon Sea?"
"War Emperor, did you already know about the Bai Family's secret dealings with the South Demon Sea?"
Luo Zheng was shocked. He hadn't expected the War Emperor to bring this up. The White Crane Marquis had sent people to kill Luo Zheng, so this was a good opportunity to attack the White Crane Marquis and his family.
That was because the Hundred Battles Dynasty had very strict control over elixirs. Elixirs above the Dharma Grade were not allowed to be leaked. Among the elixirs traded between the White Crane Marquis and the South Demon Sea, one Yuan Dan was forbidden.
However, if he told the War Emperor everything, he wouldn't be able to explain why he had killed Bai Lefeng and the other seven Bai Family powerhouses.
Furthermore, the Heavenly Sword Array was Luo Zheng's greatest secret. If he told the War Emperor, he would be in deep trouble.
"You don't have to hesitate. I only want you to tell me if you have met anyone from the Bai Family. I won't ask about anything else."
What kind of person was the War Emperor? Seeing Luo Zheng's expression, he naturally knew that Luo Zheng's secret was involved.
Luo Zheng heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. It was impossible to deceive a peerless figure like the War Emperor. Things were much simpler now.
After thinking for a while, he said, "Your Majesty, I did meet people from the Bai Family in the South Demon Sea and obtained many elixirs from them, including one Yuan Dan. From what I know, the White Crane Marquis is not only involved in elixir trading with the Myriad Poison Association, but he also has connections with other factions in the South Demon Sea. "
Luo Zheng naturally wouldn't let go of this opportunity to hit the White Crane Marquis while he was down.
"What a good White Crane Marquis!" The War Emperor's voice was cold.
"Your Majesty, this time, I came into contact with the Myriad Poison Association in order to purchase information about the Ghost Bandits. I didn't expect the Myriad Poison Association to plot against me. In a rage, I killed a few of the Myriad Poison Association's leaders and replaced them. I established a small trading association called the Red Tiger Association. I've already sent people to set up a branch in the War Emperor City. "
Luo Zheng continued.
Since the Battle Emperor was so powerful that he even knew about Marquis White Crane's secret plan, Luo Zheng decided that it would be better if he didn't hide it from the Battle Emperor. It wasn't a big deal for him to establish his own Chamber of Commerce. Powerful warriors would establish huge clans, which required a huge amount of financial support. Even Kings and Marquises with different surnames would have their own businesses. It would be fine as long as he didn't offend the Battle Emperor.
"You should consider this matter yourself. Although you are from a humble family, you will establish your own family sooner or later. Naturally, you will need to accumulate some resources."
The Battle Emperor nodded and looked at Luo Zheng with a smile, "Regarding the matter of the White Crane Marquis, you've done another meritorious service. I know what reward I should give you."
As soon as he finished speaking, the golden light faded and the War Emperor's figure disappeared as well.
"You can give me any reward, but please don't give me an Imperial Princess."
Luo Zheng muttered to himself as he walked out of the tent.
"Luo Zheng, has His Majesty left?"
The Marquis of the Calm Sea asked.
"Yes, he has."
Luo Zheng looked at He Jingtao and pretended to be frightened. He smiled and said, "General He, now that I have come out, are you still going to punish me with a hundred strokes of the military rod?"
"Luo Zheng, don't be too proud. If you fall into my hands next time, you will die without a doubt!"
He Jingtao glared at Luo Zheng with hatred and said sternly.
"Haha, is that so? Don't forget, His Majesty the Battle Emperor has asked you to go into seclusion for a year to reflect on your mistakes. "
Luo Zheng smiled faintly and said, "I am looking forward to seeing how you will deal with me when the time comes."
He Jingtao was only in the Refining Origin Realm. Even if they were to fight now, Luo Zheng wouldn't be afraid of him, let alone after a year.
"Hmph!"
He Jingtao snorted and turned to leave.
"According to the contributions you two have made this time, this mission has been completed. You can report back to the Five Saints Army. However, the upcoming battle to exterminate the Ghost Pirates is a good opportunity to make contributions. I can give you a complete fleet for you to command."
The Marquis of the Calm Sea looked at Luo Zheng and Yan Long and said with a smile.
Seeing how the Battle Emperor treated Luo Zheng so generously, the Marquis of the Calm Sea naturally knew what to do.
"Thank you, Marquis!"
Luo Zheng quickly expressed his gratitude. With the Marquis of the Calm Sea's strength, it wouldn't be difficult to exterminate the Ghost Pirates since they already knew the location of the Ghost Pirates' lair.
This was equivalent to giving away a meritorious service for free!
Yan Long was also very happy. He knew in his heart that this time, he was completely basking in Luo Zheng's glory.
The two of them left the tent and headed towards the Courage Camp.
As soon as they entered the Courage Camp, they met Chen Tianjiu and the other Sky Tiger disciples.
When the Sky Tiger disciples saw Luo Zheng and Yan Long, they couldn't help but sneer.
"Hey, isn't this Junior Brother Luo Zheng and Junior Brother Yan Long?"
"Where have you guys been all this time? You have been out at sea for such a long time. Looks like you have hunted many demonic beasts. Congratulations! "
"Hahaha, these two trash hunted demonic beasts? I think it's good enough that they didn't die in the stomach of demonic beasts. "
A few Sky Tiger disciples surrounded Luo Zheng and Yan Long and mocked them.
"My meritorious service can scare you to death!"
