"Haha, I will also reiterate that I will not agree to the terms of this contract."
The Emperor of Yiqi's smile faded little by little, and he regained his indifference. "Perhaps I once owed you a favor, but it was only enough for me to help you refine a weapon once! If there is nothing else, Sixth Prince, please go back. "
His expression was filled with displeasure.
Su Yu's expression remained unchanged. "Of course, I will not agree to that contract, but I will let you get what you want even more."
Crash —
The entire room was instantly covered in a dazzling golden light, and the golden light was oppressive.
A ten-feet-long divine bamboo surrounded by golden flames appeared in the stone room.
Both the First Prince and the Fifth Prince were stunned. They did not recognize what it was.
However, the eyes of the blind Emperor of Yiqi seemed to have recovered, bursting with a bright light. "Golden Flames Forbidden Wood! How come it is so big? "
Compared to the length of his arm last time, this one was more than a thousand times longer!
"Wrong, it should be a ten-thousand-year-old Golden Flames Forbidden Wood." Su Yu's tone was calm. "There may still be remnants of Golden Flames Forbidden Wood, but I believe only I have more than ten-thousand-year-old ones. You should understand why."
He glanced at the personal treasure on the Emperor's chest and smiled lightly.
The Emperor of Yiqi was tempted.
Indeed, the real Golden Flames Forbidden Wood had a limited lifespan, and it would often wither in less than a thousand years.
A ten-thousand-year-old Golden Flames Forbidden Wood was rare, and the treasures refined from it were several times more effective than ordinary Golden Flames Forbidden Wood.
Looking at so many pieces of Golden Flames Forbidden Wood, his eyes were full of passion.
Only a master craftsman knew the value of this ten-feet-long Golden Flames Forbidden Wood. It was a priceless treasure!
Any piece of treasure refined from it was priceless.
The ten-feet-long Golden Flames Forbidden Wood was enough to refine hundreds of small treasures and reap unimaginable wealth.
But after calming down, the light in the Emperor of Yiqi's eyes gradually faded, and he sighed reluctantly. "I have to admit that the Sixth Prince has brought me a rare surprise. But unfortunately, compared with the benefits of this contract, it is insignificant."
By controlling all the facial equipment industries in the three-star civilization region, the huge profits they brought could not be calculated with numbers.
Su Yu had a calm look on his face as he said indifferently, "Since I've come prepared, I naturally won't shoot without thinking. This piece of Golden Flames Forbidden Wood is just a sample. I still have 10,000 pieces of such Golden Flames Forbidden Wood in my hands."
Pa —
The Emperor of Qi was shocked. His old body suddenly stood up like a cheetah and knocked over the table in front of him.
The precious Phoenix Feather Spirit Tea flowed all over the ground, emitting an astonishing divine aura.
"Ten … ten thousand?" The Monarch of Unity of Qi's lips trembled, and he couldn't believe his ears.
Su Yu smiled and shook the Buddha Bead Bracelet in his hand. One of the Buddha Beads lit up. "Emperor, you can explore it with your soul."
With deep expectations, he sent a wisp of his soul to explore the space of the Buddha bead. What he saw was a complete 10,000-year-old Golden Flames Forbidden Wood that hadn't been cut yet. It was a hundred thousand feet long!
Then, the space of the Buddha bead closed, and a pair of deep and calm eyes stared at him quietly. "How is it?"
The Monarch of Unity of Qi was extremely excited. Even the crafting industry of a three-star civilization might not be able to obtain something of the same value as such a rare divine item.
His heart wavered. Seeing this, the First Prince had a bad feeling and said, "Emperor, we can discuss the terms again."
The Monarch of Unity of Qi had the idea of raising the price again. He looked at Su Yu awkwardly and said, "You see …"
Su Yu sneered in his heart. He wouldn't indulge the bad habit of the Monarch of Unity of Qi. He folded his hands behind his head and leaned back. "This is all I have."
"However …" The corners of his mouth curled into a sarcastic smile. "Emperor, please consider the risks of both sides."
"My Golden Flames Forbidden Wood is right in front of you, and their promise, haha, is just a promise. Emperor, you have lived for countless years, so you should understand that no matter how binding a contract is, there is a limit, right? The royal family is full of talents. Are you sure that a mere soul contract can force the First Prince to bow his head and fulfill his promise? "
How could the Monarch of Unity of Qi not know? There were countless rules of the Heavenly Law, and there were rules that specifically restrained contracts.
Even if there were none, if the First Prince became the monarch and ordered people to assassinate, kill, or rob the contract, what could the Monarch of Unity of Qi do?
"Even if the First Prince succeeded in becoming the monarch, and really risked universal condemnation to fulfill his promise, are you sure that those civilizations are safe enough? It is no secret that the Corpse Clan has risen and wreaked havoc on the surrounding civilizations. With the power of those civilizations, they may not be able to resist the aggressive Corpse Clan. "
Su Yu sat up and stared straight into the Monarch's eyes. "Would you rather take such a huge risk than the great harvest that is right in front of you?"
The Monarch of Unity of Qi's old body swayed.
Indeed, the latter's conditions were tempting, but there were too many unforeseen circumstances, especially the last one, the Corpse Clan!
He had heard that the Corpse Clan had gradually appeared in the peripheral civilizations, and some of them had even been occupied by the Corpse Clan.
The threat of the Corpse Clan was getting more and more intense, and no one could predict when the civilizations outside the Empire of Dayu would be occupied.
He was completely moved by Su Yu's words. Of course, the premise was that Su Yu could take out something that was not inferior to the benefits of the contract, such as the huge Golden Flames Forbidden Wood.
The First Prince had a bad premonition, and he hurriedly said, "Emperor, please do not listen to the Sixth Prince's side of the story. I can guarantee it with my reputation …"
The Monarch of Unity of Qi had already made up his mind. He said, "Haha, I am indebted to the First Prince and the Fifth Prince for their trust in me. I have visited you many times, but I am afraid that I am unable to shoulder the heavy responsibility entrusted to me by the two princes. Please leave."
"Send the guests out!" He was no longer polite.
The stone door opened, and the shopkeeper was waiting outside.
The First Prince's face was gloomy, and he stared coldly at Su Yu. The Fifth Prince was also gnashing his teeth in hatred.
Was Su Yu born to oppose them? They were about to succeed, but he had to interfere!
"Monarch of Unity of Qi, I will remember your choice, and I hope you will not regret it in the future." The First Prince had said all the nice things he wanted to say. At this moment, there was no room for negotiation, and he threatened the Monarch of Unity of Qi.
The Monarch of Unity of Qi laughed and said, "Farewell, Prince."
"Humph!" The First Prince and the other two left dejectedly. One could imagine the anger in their hearts.
When the stone door was closed again, Su Yu waved his hand again, and hundreds of 100-feet-long Golden Flames Forbidden Wood appeared. He said, "These are the down payment. When you have gathered enough people, you will give me another half. If you help my sister seize the throne, I will give you another half."
"Haha, of course, of course … Wait, sister, are you recruiting people for Princess Ruchen?" The Monarch of Unity of Qi was stunned.
Nodding slightly, Su Yu did not deny it.
The Monarch of Unity of Qi could not understand Su Yu's thoughts. He said in surprise, "For Princess Ruchen, you are willing to sacrifice such a huge price? To tell you the truth, with the Sixth Prince's current reputation, and with my help, you are more than capable of becoming the monarch. Why do you want to work for someone else? "
Su Yu smiled indifferently. "There is nothing else. It is just a promise."
This … He still felt that it was inconceivable, but if Su Yu insisted, he did not mind.
No matter who became the emperor, it had nothing to do with him.
"In two days, I will bring people to the Sixth Prince's residence."
"Alright!" Su Yu left, not specifically instructing the Monarch of Unity of Qi to give it his all.
Now that he had chosen to oppose the First Prince, how could he not give it his all?
Otherwise, the day the First Prince ascended to the throne would be the day the Alliance of Unity of Qi was destroyed.
After a busy day, Su Yu returned to the Sixth Prince's residence.
Princess Ruchen and Emperor Wuhen were waiting eagerly. Seeing that Su Yu had returned empty-handed, they had a bad feeling.
They were a little disappointed, but their emotions did not fluctuate too much, because they had not harbored much hope in the first place.
"How is it?" Out of politeness, Emperor Wuhen stepped forward to greet him and asked with concern.
Shaking his head, Su Yu said, "We will see the results in two days."
It was still unknown how many people the Monarch of Unity of Qi could gather. Before he was confident, he would not be too sure.
"Is that so? It's alright, it's alright …" Emperor Wuhen laughed bitterly in his heart. How could it be alright? The relic of Dayu the Great would open in three days. What could they do with such a small number of people?
Princess Ruchen had also lost her usual liveliness. Seeing that Su Yu had arrived, she forced herself to perk up. "It's alright, you have done your best. The fight for the nation's destiny has not reached the final moment, and no one can say what the outcome will be." "It is good that you have such a mentality," Su Yu praised. "You should adjust your mentality. I will return to the residence first."
Unexpectedly, just as he was about to leave the Princess's residence, a guard on duty reported, "Your Highness, the Second Prince has come to visit."
"What is he doing here?" Princess Ruchen was a little surprised. It was the eve of the fight for the nation's destiny, and the Second Prince, who usually did not visit, had suddenly come to visit.
"Invite him in."
Su Yu stopped in his tracks. Fortunately, he did not leave.
Thud, thud —
The sound of the Second Prince's unhurried footsteps could be heard approaching from afar. From afar, he laughed warmly. "How have you been, sister? I heard that you were summoned by the gray-robed Emperor alone. I am very envious of you."
As he spoke, he suddenly realized that Su Yu was present. His expression sank, and he snorted. Ignoring Su Yu, he walked up to Princess Ruchen.
Princess Ruchen invited him to sit. After exchanging a few pleasantries, she said impatiently, "Brother, you do not visit me for no reason. If you have something to say, just say it."
Sensing that Princess Ruchen was not in a good mood, he did not beat around the bush. "Haha, I have come today to give sister a great opportunity."
Princess Ruchen raised her brows, and asked curiously, "Tell me about it."
"Haha, a straightforward person does not beat around the bush. Brother, you have learned that sister has secretly recruited more than 20 people to help you seize the nation's destiny. Is that true?"
Princess Ruchen's expression changed slightly, but she was not too surprised.
At this point, everyone's trump cards had been exposed. If they were to investigate it seriously, it would not be a secret.
"Yes, does this have anything to do with the great opportunity that Second Brother spoke of?"
"Haha, of course it has something to do with it." The Second Prince was beaming. "I believe that sister has heard about it. Brother, you have the support of two Conferred Kings. Currently, there are 81 Peak Overlords of the younger generation helping me seize the nation's destiny. However, compared to Eldest Brother, they are still lacking."
"Therefore, I would like to borrow sister's 20 people," the Second Prince said. "Since it is only 20 people, sister will not be able to obtain the position of Crown Prince. Why don't you cede them to me? If I successfully obtain the position of Crown Prince, I can promise that on the day I ascend the throne, I will bestow sister with two fiefdoms of the same size. How about that?"
