He didn't expect that he would really find them. Moreover, there were seven of them. He was just short of seven.
However, the price they asked for was too high.
50 million per person. Seven of them would be 350 million.
It wasn't that he didn't have the money. He was just afraid that if he revealed too much, it would arouse suspicion.
"Your Highness, are you worried?" Seeing that Xiamang Guanyu didn't reply, the golden-clothed Fourth Stage Imperial Emperor asked.
Jian Wushuang waved his hand and said, "No! It's just that the price is too high. I'm just a prince. If I really take out so many godstones, it will cause a lot of trouble! "
"Your Highness, don't worry. I understand. I will keep it a secret and won't let them leak any information!"
Seeing that the other party was so confident, Jian Wushuang took out a mustard seed and slapped it on the table. He said, "Here are 50 million godstones. Send it over now as a sign of my sincerity. When they come, I will give them another 100 million. Before the battle, I will pay the remaining godstones!"
"No problem!" The golden-clothed Imperial Emperor smiled.
Jian Wushuang's eyes flashed with killing intent.
This time, he was being treated as a fat sheep.
Raising the price!
350 million. They really dared to ask for it. Let's see if they have the life to spend it.
The strength of these rogue cultivators was average, but their price was ridiculously high.
Night time.
The seven Fourth Stage Imperial Emperors arrived at the military camp. After Xiamang Guanyu received them, he left behind 100 million godstones and left in a hurry.
A secret decree came from the palace.
Today, the Great Xia officially declared war on Mo Luo.
On the day of the declaration of war, Great General Gu Tong led an army of a million to flatten one of Mo Luo's cities.
At the borders of the empire, there were four battlefields.
Three of the cities were guarded by three Great Generals. The last city was guarded by the First Marshal of the empire.
However, Gu Tong was the only one in charge.
Today, the Emperor had summoned the princes and some powerful officials for this matter.
When he entered Qianyang Sect, there was already an endless stream of people and carriages.
Here, Jian Wushuang also saw the Second Prince, who was extremely powerful.
"Marquis Xiamang!"
Jian Wushuang knew this person's appearance. He was a fatty. His memory of him was very partial.
Now that he had seen the other party in person, he could tell that the other party's aura was extraordinary.
The two guards by Xiao Chen's side were both Rank 4 Sovereign Emperors. Such an arrogant lineup was even more exaggerated than the Crown Prince's.
The Crown Prince only had one rank four Imperial Monarch by his side.
The rank four Imperial Emperors by their side were all people who were willing to risk their lives for them.
On the other hand, Jian Wushuang was a little lacking. He had spent a lot of money to get what he wanted.
Moreover, the Crown Prince and the Second Prince had military power.
"That Marquis Xiamang is already a rank 4 Monarch. Furthermore, his body contains some sort of strange energy. His full strength is not weaker than a peak rank 4 Monarch!" The White Sovereign King's voice appeared in his mind.
Jian Wushuang's heart skipped a beat.
Peak of the Fourth Order?
He was much stronger than the Crown Prince. At the very least, he didn't need to use his full strength to kill the Crown Prince. However, he was no match for the Second Prince.
This person was so strong that he would most likely face Mo Luo's Crown Prince on the battlefield.
By then, the prince of the Great Xia Dynasty would become a laughingstock.
It was no wonder that the Crown Prince had strongly opposed the expedition. It turned out that there was a layer of relationship between them.
Seeing the Second Prince from afar, Xiamang Guanyu's expression changed. He revealed a warm smile and said, "Second Brother, wait for me!"
When the rotund Second Prince heard Jian Wushuang's call, he was surprised. However, he still turned his head and smiled.
"Ninth Brother!"
The two of them entered the depths of the palace together. Naturally, the guards were left outside.
Zheng Yang Palace, inside the meeting hall.
This was also the first time Jian Wushuang met the Emperor.
"Xiamang Yunxing!"
This person who was comparable to the Xiamang Clan's Old Ancestor was indeed extraordinary.
Jian Wushuang saw the shadow of Elder Nine Swords in him.
After everyone sat down, Jian Wushuang dared to size up the hall carefully. The hall was almost filled with people. There were dozens of rank 5 Imperial Emperors, not to mention rank 4 Imperial Emperors.
The other two of the three great generals had also arrived. They were both peak rank 5 Imperial Emperors, similar to Xuanyuan Pan.
Of course, Xuanyuan Pan had also arrived. His sons had also arrived.
Finally, after two hours, the commander-in-chief of the Grand Xia, Xiamang Yunxing, was seated. Everyone was present.
Jian Wushuang secretly sized up Xiamang Yunxing. Not only was he in charge of the Grand Xia's cultivator army, he was also the Emperor's elder brother.
Both brothers were peak rank 5 Imperial Emperors.
However, Xiamang Yunxing had become famous much earlier than the Emperor!
Whoosh!
Now that everyone was present, everyone stood up. Regardless of who it was, they all bowed and paid their respects.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Xiamang Yunxing sat on the throne and pressed his hand down. His gaze was incomparably dignified.
Beside the throne, there were a few armchairs. Seated on them were several old eunuchs.
Two people stood on either side of Xiamang Yunxing. Everyone else bowed, but these two did not move at all.
One was the Imperial Advisor, the Amitabha Buddha.
The other was a eunuch dressed in a red robe embroidered with patterns. His hair was white, and his face was frighteningly pale.
Jian Wushuang straightened up. Just a glance at him made him feel uneasy.
In this hall, this person was probably the strongest.
Jian Wushuang did not even dare to take the initiative to ask the White Sovereign King. He was afraid that the other party would see through his disguise.
"Don't worry. That red-robed eunuch is indeed rank 6. However, he is flawed. His strength is very ordinary. He is much weaker than Lie Huo, who I killed back then. When I was at my peak, I could kill him with a single breath!" The White Sovereign King spoke very casually, treating a rank 6 Imperial Emperor as a breath.
Jian Wushuang secretly transmitted, "Old man, if you could kill him with a single breath, would I still need to be afraid?"
"Hmph, you don't believe me?" The White Sovereign King clenched his fists and coldly said, "Wait till I recover my strength. See how I slaughter the Grand Xia!"
If he really recovered his strength, slaughtering the Grand Xia would not be a difficult matter. With the White Sovereign King's absolute strength, there was no one in the entire Heavenly South that could be his match, let alone the Grand Xia Ancient Nation. It was just that when he could recover his strength was a problem.
It was already not bad that he was able to refine his origin source. Later on, the Godly Spirit gave him a divine body and a fleshly body. He still had to use the Power of All Living Things to fuse with the White Sovereign King. That process would take at least 10,000 years.
"Shut up!" Thinking of those troublesome matters, Jian Wushuang felt a headache coming on. He did not want to listen to the White Sovereign King's boasting.
Xiamang Yunxing slowly stood up and looked at everyone. His voice was like a bell as he said in a dignified manner, "The Demonic Dao is rampant. It is enough for the Heavenly South to have one Chaos Region. Our Grand Xia Northern Border cannot become a second Chaos Region!"
Everyone listened attentively.
"Today, I summoned everyone here to discuss the matter of the expedition. Everyone, speak your thoughts!" After Xiamang Yunxing finished speaking, he left the hall with the Imperial Tutor and the red-robed eunuch.
He was the decision maker, not the schemer.
After everyone in the hall came up with a plan, he would make the final decision.
The way an Emperor did things was just like this.
If he lost, he would kill the schemer. If he won, it would be the credit of the decision maker.
They were all intelligent people. Who could not see through it?
