The leader of Eternal Tree, the Sacred Leaf, was the wife of the King of Harmony River?
Hearing A Ye's explanation, Wang Lu finally understood why this man, whose IQ was suspected to be seriously defective, confidently said that the alliance between Harmony River and Eternal Tree was unbreakable. It turned out that the two forces were actually connected by marriage! With such a relationship, with A Ye's temperament, he would indeed think that the alliance between the two forces was unbreakable. Wang Lu thought that A Ye would say: I'm so handsome, which ally would be willing to abandon me...
It was obviously not the first time that Zhou Mumu saw the Sacred Leaf of Eternal Tree. Hearing A Ye showing off, she sneered and said, "Be careful, your wife is now your competitor. In the context of the battle for the five blood spirits crown, it is not uncommon for husband and wife to turn against each other."
As a result, A Ye laughed and said, "I'm so handsome, my wife would not be willing to betray me."
"..." Zhou Mumu disapproved of this and even sneered. However, she also knew that A Ye was a person who was easy to talk to in other areas, but once he decided on something, he would not turn back, especially when it came to his handsomeness. Therefore, Zhou Mumu was too lazy to say more. She sneered a few times and then ignored him.
Not long after, a green cloud descended from the sky, and the Sacred Leaf Shaman of Eternal Tree appeared in front of the crowd with the two children. She then nodded slightly to Wang Lu and Lan. Shaman's posture was graceful and elegant. Even the most demanding person could not find anything wrong with her.
Compared to Shaman, A Ye was much more enthusiastic. He directly ran over and hugged Shaman, kissed her deeply on the cheek, and then touched the two children's heads. Amidst the children's cheers, he carried them on his shoulders and pointed to Wang Lu and Lan. "These two are the earth spirit Wang Lu and the waste girl from Gray Mountain. Come, say hello."
The two almost identical little boys smiled and waved at Wang Lu and Lan, but did not speak.
A Ye explained, "Don't look at how big they are, they are actually only one year old. They can't speak, but they are very sensible, much better than me when I was a child. They completely inherited their mother's specialty. In the future, one of them would be the King of Harmony River, while the other would be the Sacred Leaf of the Eternal Tree. The alliance between the two would be even more unbreakable. Hey, the luckiest thing in my life is marrying a good wife and giving birth to two good sons. "
While speaking, A Ye's eyes revealed a strong sense of attachment and love.
However, just as A Ye was immersed in the happiness of his family, an untimely voice rang out.
"I'm hungry."
Lan touched her stomach and said coldly.
A Ye was taken aback, and then coldly and arrogantly said, "There's no food for waste here."
Before he could finish his words, he saw the Eternal Tree's Sacred Leaf frown slightly. "A Ye! He's a guest! "
Upon hearing this, A Ye was shocked. His frosty expression immediately melted and was replaced with a flattering smile. He said to Lan, "If you're hungry, come to my house for a meal. Come, follow me into the house. "With that, he walked into the house.
"Alas." As A Ye's follower, seeing this scene, Zhou Mumu could only sigh.
However, Wang Lu looked at the couple with interest. While following A Ye into the house, he said to Shaman, "Usually, it's hard to take care of him, right?"
Shaman smiled reservedly. "A Ye is very sentimental. His words and deeds may be inconsistent with secular etiquette, but he always does things from his heart. I think this sincere heart is the most valuable, so he never feels that it's hard."
Wang Lu nodded, and then, seemingly unintentionally, asked, "I see that A Ye is not interested in governing the country. Do you usually help him take care of a lot of things?"
Shaman was startled, but A Ye, who was walking in front of her, had already answered, "It's all Shaman's help. She is now in charge of the state affairs of two countries and is often very busy. But if I really have to deal with those state affairs, it would be very annoying. "
"Oh, then you really have a good wife." Wang Lu said and gave Shaman a meaningful look.
The woman looked at her husband affectionately and said, "This is A Ye's trust in me. Others only say that he is incompetent in governing the country, that he is muddle-headed and ignores the state affairs, but who can really have such a free and easy heart? And with such a pure heart, any miracle is possible around him. "
Wang Lu said with a smile, "Saying that he is so good, are you trying to help your husband recruit me? I thought your position would not be so gentle. "
Shaman slightly lowered her head, but then changed the topic. "Not long ago, I forced A Ye to go to Grey Mountain. I told him that there are many variables in the battle for the five blood spirits crown. Even with the joint efforts of Water and Wood, it cannot guarantee absolute safety. And among the five forces, Grey Mountain is the weakest. If we can eliminate Grey Mountain and collect the earth spirit power, we can then truly be in an invincible position. In fact, until now, I still think that this judgment is not wrong. But since A Ye brought you back, obviously he has his own judgment, and I, no matter what, will always respect his will. "
Wang Lu said, "Even when it comes to real power, isn't it obvious that you, the queen who manages the affairs of the two countries, is superior?"
Shaman said, "Between husband and wife, how can everything be decided by the strength of the authority? I respect him and love him, what does it have to do with power? "
While talking, the group had crossed the exquisite courtyard and entered the house. A Ye led them straight to the dining room. There was a round table in the hall. He didn't pay attention to the hierarchy and just casually asked them to sit down. Then, he clapped his hands and shouted, "Little ones, there are guests in the house, bring out your best skills!"
Not long after, a group of dwarves in white clothes and white hats came out of the kitchen. With comical movements, they brought all kinds of fine wine and delicacies to the table.
Although these chefs were unprepossessing, their culinary skills were amazing. The dishes on the table were not delicacies, nor were there any expensive ingredients, but they looked, smelled, and were all rare and precious delicacies. In particular, the wine on the table was even more extraordinary. It was said that A Ye himself personally collected the river essence from the deepest part of Harmony River, picked evergreen leaves from the Eternal Tree, and brewed it with abundant rice. When it first entered the mouth, it was hot and unbearable, but when it entered the stomach, there was a trace of coolness, which made people feel relaxed and happy.
At the table, the topic gradually deepened as they toasted each other.
Perhaps A Ye brought Wang Lu home just to drink wine and make merry with the person he liked, and to connect with each other. However, at this table, only A Ye and Lan were truly immersed in the joy of wine and food. A Ye kept drinking, while Lan, with an elegant posture and amazing speed, swallowed most of the food on the table into her stomach.
Except for these two weirdos, the rest of the people had their own thoughts. Even Wang Lu only tasted the food and spent most of his time talking with Shaman.
Between the husband and wife, the one who could really make the decision was Shaman. Don't look at how willful A Ye could ignore Shaman's request and act arbitrarily. However, if Shaman insisted that A Ye kill the earth spirit at all costs, would A Ye refuse?
At this time, the peace was nothing more than Shaman herself feeling that maintaining the peace was more beneficial. After all, that was then and this was now. Since they realized that Wang Lu was not the kind of opponent that could be easily dealt with, then Harmony River and Eternal Tree naturally needed a living earth spirit as an ally.
And the topic on the table was mainly about the alliance in the five blood spirit crown power struggle.
"This dispute has made this world turbulent, and it is difficult for any party to stay out of it. And now, the power of Golden City is too strong, and it is difficult for any party to contend against it. Only by joining forces and forming an alliance would there be a chance of survival. However, as far as I know, in most of the history, when several weak forces confront a strong force, even if their total strength is far above the strong force, in the end, they would still lose more than they win. This is because the weak forces are always unable to cooperate sincerely. Instead, they each have their own ulterior motives, and even drag each other down. "
At the dinner table, Shaman gently sipped the wine brewed by her husband. She temporarily let go of the reserved Sacred Leaf and, in a straightforward manner, explained her understanding of the situation to Wang Lu.
Regarding Shaman's analysis, Wang Lu nodded in agreement. "Indeed, the alliance between the weak forces, no matter how much effort is put into managing it, will always have many flaws, and then be broken one by one. After all, the hearts of the forces are different, and it is impossible to be like a powerful and unified force. Therefore, from your point of view, persuading A Ye to go to Gray Mountain to harvest the earth spirit power is indeed the right choice. "
According to the rules of the five blood spirit crown power struggle, when any blood spirit was killed, the killer would obtain the blood spirit power of that blood spirit. And when four of the five spirits were lost, the blood spirit that gathered the power of the five spirits, as well as the master of that blood spirit, would obtain the five blood spirit crown and henceforth rule the world. And during this period, the successful killing of the blood spirit would rapidly improve one's own strength. Although it would inevitably be accompanied by losses, it was, after all, a power that was in one's own hands, which was stable and solid.
Shaman said, "Now, among the five spirits, we have already gathered three of them, which is more than half. However, in fact, our comprehensive strength is only slightly better than Flaming Valley, and it is still not enough compared to Golden City. At present, the best strategy is to unite with Flaming Valley to contend against Golden City. However, the situation of Flaming Valley is very special, and the difficulty to unite with them is extraordinary. Moreover, as previously analyzed, the more forces that unite, the more difficult it is to maintain the cohesion of this alliance. When the time comes, not only would we not enjoy the convenience of the alliance, we would even suffer from it. "
Wang Lu said, "So in your opinion?"
Shaman said, "In my opinion, it's best for Golden City and Flaming Valley to go to war. When both of them are mutually wounded, we can reap the benefits."
Wang Lu laughed in spite of himself. "This is too whimsical. Right now, whether it's Golden City or Flaming Valley, obviously, we are the priority target — they have three blood spirits, but their comprehensive strength is mediocre. If it were me, I would never let go of such a suitable target while fighting a unified powerful force endlessly."
Shaman somewhat mysteriously smiled. "But what if they have a reason to go to war? Once the war starts, it would not be easy to control. Although the strength of Flaming Valley is only sixty to seventy percent of Golden City, the five elements mutually restrain fire and metal. If they go all out in a war, Golden City would not have the ability to end the war quickly and would definitely fall into a quagmire. "
Wang Lu asked, "Do they have a reason to go to war?"
"They didn't before, so I'll just give them one!"
Just as Wang Lu asked this question, a hearty man's voice came from outside the dining room. Faster than the sound, a flash of lightning flashed into the room and gradually turned into a clear figure at the dining table, which cheerfully smiled at Wang Lu.
"Long time no see, Junior Brother Wang Lu."
Wang Lu looked at that figure in surprise, got up and said, "The Flash?"
"... Junior Brother Wang Lu, I haven't seen you for several years, don't tell me you don't recognize me?"
Zhan Ziye was inexplicably sad and indignant.
