Supported by a strong force, Emperor Shun's order was passed unanimously.
Human leaders left the Town Hall in groups of three to five. They all had serious looks and sparkling eyes, as if they had countless thoughts in their minds.
Ji Hao stood beside a pillar, looking at them with his hands hidden in his sleeves.
Soon, someone noticed Ji Hao. A tall and slim young man with a cold face walked to Ji Hao with big steps, with an oddly shaped, giant bow carried on his back.
"Earl Yao, Ji Hao?" The young man walked to less than half a foot away from Ji Hao, his nose almost touching Ji Hao's nose as he asked with a weird tone.
"Piss off!" Before Ji Hao responded, Heng Xing, who had been standing beside Ji Hao with his arms akimbo, popped out his eyes and threw a punch at the young man's cold face. Heng Xing had already taken Ji Hao as his master. To a not-so-smart spirit creature, he would protect Ji Hao wholeheartedly after he took him as his master.
The young man's face was almost touching Ji Hao's face. Without a doubt, this was a provocation.
Before Heng Xing realized what was going on, his body had already reacted as fast as possible.
The young man carelessly raised his right hand and slapped on Heng Xing's fist. Following a thunderous bang, the young man's look changed instantly. His wrist let out a loud popping noise, while his upper body leaned backward. His legs couldn't support him, and he staggered backward for quite a few steps.
"You!" The young man glared at Ji Hao, subconsciously putting his hands on the longbow hanging on his back.
"I am Earl Yao Ji Hao!" Ji Hao looked at the young man blandly and said, "If you want justice for Yi Shen and Yi Tian, wait until the flood-control mission is completed. The disaster is right before the humankind. I don't want to waste the humankind's power on you. "
The young man swung his hand, coldly stared at Ji Hao for a while, then abruptly lowered his voice and laughed coldly, "No, I just want to say 'thank you' to you. Without you, we wouldn't have the chance to inherit the power of Eastern Wasteland. Remember, I am Yi Di, and Yi Tian is my brother. "
Giving a weird grin, Yi Di continued in a low voice, "Ten Sun Country elders have already set the rule that whoever kills you will inherit the throne of Yi Shen. So, you must watch your head, because I will take it with my own hands. "
Ji Hao looked at Yi Di coldly, pointed at Heng Xing, who stood beside him, seeming to want to fight, and said, "If you want to kill me, defeat my mount first. You can't even take a punch from my mount, and you still dare to say that you want to kill me? "
Yi Di gave Ji Hao a complicated glance. He raised his right hand and looked at the blood in his palm. As he swung his hand, the blood melted immediately. He then glanced at Heng Xing and said with a weird tone, "Killing … can't be done with brute strength."
Snorting coldly, Yi Di turned around and walked out of the hall.
Not long after that, another young man, who was carrying a longbow on his back, walked up to Ji Hao. The young man looked at Ji Hao from head to toe, then pointed at his own nose and said, "I am Yi Ren. Did Yi Di challenge you? Do not die in his hands, because your head, as well as the glory and power that comes with chopping off your head, will all be mine! "
Yi Ren proudly raised his head and proudly walked out of the Town Hall.
Ji Hao smiled and said in a low voice, "It seems that I've caused quite a lot of troubles these years. If not for this flood, you wouldn't even have a chance to walk out of the Town Hall. "
Back then, Ji Hao beat Wuzhi Qi and Zhu Rong Tianming in public in the Town Hall. Based on Ji Hao's temper, if the humankind wasn't facing a great crisis, and he didn't want to cause internal division, he would have killed Yi Di and Yi Ren long ago.
The people in the hall quickly left, and the twelve silhouettes disappeared without anyone noticing.
Ji Hao walked to Si Wen Ming with Heng Xing. Smilingly, he said to Si Wen Ming, "Uncle Wen Ming, I'm seriously short of food too. Your food is here, can you give me more? Just now, I sent Yao Meng and his brothers to my palace with their people."
Si Wen Ming squeezed a faint smile out of his serious face. He nodded to Ji Hao and said, "Tushan Family has already sent over a batch of food overnight. It's less than a day away from Pu Ban City now. I'll give you this batch of food first. "
Emperor Shun, who had been wearing a sullen face all this time, finally let out a grin. He kindly nodded to Ji Hao and said with a strong voice, "Ji Hao, just now, you managed to control your anger and didn't argue with those two kids. Good. In the future, you have to help Wen Ming. You have a heavy responsibility, so you can't be as hot-tempered as before. "
Ji Hao smiled. From Emperor Shun's words and Si Wen Ming's words, Ji Hao knew that Emperor Shun and Si Wen Ming had planned all this.
With the support from Tushan Family, the food problem in Pu Ban City would be largely alleviated, and Si Wen Ming would be able to take over the flood-control mission and take charge of the whole situation. Once the flood-control mission was successful, Si Wen Ming would definitely ascend to the throne with this credit, and no one would say anything against him.
"But, Uncle Wen Ming, how much food did Tushan old man send over?" Ji Hao frowned, pointed at the gate of the hall, and said, "If they join hands …"
Si Wen Ming smiled and said confidently, "Not to mention whether they can reach an agreement within three days and select one or two candidates to compete with me. Even if all large clans in Pu Ban City join hands and add all the food they have, it still wouldn't be as much as the food brought over by Tushan Family. "
Ji Hao paused. Hearing Si Wen Ming, he couldn't help but show a grin!
Tushan Family was indeed rich. How could the food brought over by Tushan Family alone be more than all the food stored in Pu Ban City?
Ji Hao suddenly realized that compared to Tushan Family, which had a long history, his Yao Mountain territory was still way too poor.
Ji Hao didn't leave the Town Hall. Under Emperor Shun's arrangement, Si Wen Ming would surely take over the flood-control mission. Therefore, Si Wen Ming had already started planning the overall situation.
Emperor Shun's ministers, armies from Emperor Shun's own clans, ministers from Si Wen Ming's family, and princes from other clans and families who were friends with Si Wen Ming gathered in the hall behind the Town Hall. Everyone had been busy, distributing tasks and resources. Si Wen Ming put forward a great flood-control plan, which was more imaginative than Si Xi's ten-thousand dragons water-sealing magic formation, and could solve all potential problems. However, it was also thousands of times more complicated and difficult.
When Ji Hao listened to Si Wen Ming's flood-control plan, he felt his fine hair standing straight up, and his body was itchy, as if an electric current had just passed through his body.
It was too great, too magnificent. Ji Hao couldn't even imagine how Si Wen Ming came up with this plan!
Once the plan succeeded, not only the flood this time, but many of the difficulties that the human race had faced in the past would also be easily solved.
While Ji Hao was listening to Si Wen Ming's plan, a red beam of light dazzled out of Si Wen Ming's sleeve. Next, a triangular jade talisman exploded.
Si Wen Ming's look changed immediately as he said, "Tushan Family's food transport troop was attacked. The enemy … is extremely powerful!"
