Qi Huan said in a deep voice, "Regardless of what Zhao Hai is thinking, now that he is in the Desolate race's territory, it is impossible for him to leave. Now, even if we can get the situation of the Void Realm out of him, we will be able to command our troops in the Void Realm and snatch back what belongs to us."
Everyone nodded. Liu Xuan continued, "But how can we get information out of Zhao Hai? That kid is obviously not someone to be trifled with. "
Everyone frowned. They agreed with Liu Xuan's words. Zhao Hai was obviously not simple. It would probably be difficult for them to deal with Zhao Hai.
Qi Huan said in a deep voice, "Let's do it this way. We'll use peaceful means before resorting to force. First, we'll rope in Zhao Hai. Then, we'll get information out of him. As for how to rope him in, I think there are only three things — wealth, power, and sex!"
Everyone nodded. Liu Xuan said in a deep voice, "In terms of wealth, I think it will be difficult. Zhao Hai is clearly not lacking in money. I can't even count how much money he has spent on things over the past few days. In any case, money seems to be meaningless to him. It won't be easy to rope him in from this aspect."
Li Si also nodded and said, "I'm afraid it will be difficult in terms of power. Don't forget that he still has a fleet in the Combat God World. How much power can we give him? Can we make him the commander of a fleet? If we can't give him that much power, will he care about any other power? "
Everyone didn't know what to say. Naturally, it was impossible for them to give Zhao Hai this much power as a fleet commander. One must know that the commander of a fleet was selected from the army. Even the commanders of the fleets they controlled had to work their way up bit by bit. This was in order to maintain the fighting strength of the army.
If at this moment, Zhao Hai was suddenly parachuted into an army to be the commander, the soldiers would definitely cause a ruckus. Those soldiers would definitely not agree to it.
There was no way to give Zhao Hai this kind of power. Would he be interested in other kinds of power? If you asked a general who commanded thousands of troops to organize documents every day, it would be strange if he would agree. If they could not give Zhao Hai a satisfactory position, would he really surrender to the Desolate race? That was impossible, so this path was probably not going to work.
Wealth, power, and lust. Out of these three, two had already been eliminated. Now, there was only one left, lust! They could only start from this aspect.
Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but glance at each other, not knowing what to say. After a while, Yu Ting opened his mouth and said, "It seems that we have to ask Zhao Hai if there are any women by his side, and what his attitude towards women is like."
Everyone nodded. Qi Huan said in a deep voice, "Let's do it this way. Inform everyone to get Qi Mo to make a trip back. He was the first person to interact with Zhao Hai, so he might know more about Zhao Hai."
No one objected. They had long looked down on Qi Mo, but Qi Mo was a legend in the army. Among all the army commanders, he was the only one who had walked step by step from a lowly soldier to the position of general. The other army commanders had entered the army through various channels. They were already officers, so their starting points were much higher than Qi Mo's. Hence, the ordinary soldiers in the army idolized Qi Mo greatly.
And the greatest characteristic of the Desolate race's army was that their military exploits were transparent. That was to say, whoever had done something had to be announced to the entire army, or even to the entire world. Everyone knew what meritorious deeds you had done, and what position you should sit in. On this point, even though the eighteen large family clans were tyrannical, no one dared to tamper with it. If they dared to do so, it would cause dissatisfaction and chaos among the entire Desolate race. This was even worse for them.
It was because of Qi Mo's meritorious deeds that he was able to sit in the position of commander of the fifth army. Although they had suppressed the fifth army in many ways, they could not touch Qi Mo's position.
Thankfully, Qi Mo had been obedient all these years. Although he was not under the control of any of the eighteen family clans, he would still carry out the orders of the Elders. However, the Elders were afraid that he would make even more meritorious deeds, so they had suppressed the fifth army. Even the promotion of the fifth army had been affected to a certain extent.
Those elders originally thought that by suppressing the promotion of the fifth legion, it would cause discord between Qi Mo and the officers of the fifth legion. Slowly, no one would be of the same mind as him, and naturally, he would no longer be able to continue as a commander. However, they never expected that by doing so, not only did it not cause the fifth army to be at odds with him, it even made the fifth army more united to stand on Qi Mo's side. This had actually helped Qi Mo.
Now, those Elders had thought it through. Since they could not touch Qi Mo, they might as well make good use of him. Take the matter of the Earth Yellow World as an example. The War Immortal World had suddenly withdrawn all their troops, which made the Desolate race unsure of what they were up to. Hence, they sent Qi Mo's fifth army to the Earth Yellow World. If nothing happened to the War Immortal World, Qi Mo naturally would not be able to make any contributions. If the War Immortal World was plotting against them, then Qi Mo's fifth army would definitely suffer heavy losses. When that happened, it would also be a blow to Qi Mo's reputation. It could be said that they had killed two birds with one stone.
However, they never expected that Qi Mo would be fine when he arrived there. He even brought back Zhao Hai. Now, Zhao Hai was very famous in the Desolate World. Everyone knew that Zhao Hai came from the Void Realm and was from his hometown. This not only made Zhao Hai the center of attention, it also made Qi Mo's reputation rise. These Elders were obviously even more displeased, but they could not do anything about Qi Mo.
Although Zhao Hai was the center of attention, the Desolate race had only heard of his name. Few people knew what he looked like. It was because of this that Zhao Hai could move freely in the Desolate World.
The Elders Council had no choice but to do so. They wanted to deal with Zhao Hai, so they could not let others know what Zhao Hai looked like. If not, it would only be more troublesome when they wanted to deal with Zhao Hai in the future.
It didn't take long before Qi Mo arrived at the Ancestral Artifact from the Fifth Legion. Before he arrived, he had already informed Zhao Hai that the Elder Assembly was looking for him. At the same time, he reminded Zhao Hai to be careful.
Zhao Hai knew that Qi Mo did not want him to clash with the Elders Council at this point in time. He also understood Qi Mo's thoughts. Therefore, although he was being monitored, he did not make any big movements.
When Qi Mo arrived at the Ancestral Artifact's meeting room, the eighteen Elders were all present. Qi Mo gave the eighteen Elders a military salute and said, "Qi Mo greets the Elders."
Although the eighteen Elders were members of the Elder Council, they were not Qi Mo's direct superiors. However, everyone in the Desolate race knew that the Elder Council controlled the operations of the entire Desolate race. Hence, he had no choice but to obey the Elder Council's orders. However, Qi Mo had never treated the eighteen Elders well.
When Qi Huan saw Qi Mo's expression, he became even angrier. Qi Mo came from the Qi family. Although his father had been expelled from the Qi family, Qi Huan believed that regardless of the expulsion, he was still a member of the Qi family. When the Qi family needed him, he had to work hard for the Qi family. If he did not listen, it was equivalent to betraying the Qi family. Hence, he did not have a good impression of Qi Mo, who did not listen to the Qi family's orders. In fact, he hated Qi Mo even more than the others present.
However, Qi Huan would not show it at this point in time. He only said to Qi Mo in a deep voice, "Have a seat. I called you here today to ask you about Zhao Hai. You might not know this, but Zhao Hai has been desperately buying things in our Desolate World. Books, artifacts. As long as he fancies something, he will buy it all. Those things are the foundation of our Desolate race's survival. If he gets his hands on them, then how will our Desolate race survive in the future? Hence, we cannot let Zhao Hai leave the Desolate World. If we don't let him leave, we have to think of a way to keep him here with the Desolate race. Hence, we want to rope in Zhao Hai. Do you have any good ideas?"
When Qi Mo heard Qi Huan's words, he understood the Elders' intentions. They probably wanted to use peaceful means before resorting to force. However, was Zhao Hai that easy to rope in? After thinking about this, Qi Mo couldn't help but knit his brows, then he said, "I'm afraid it won't be easy to win Zhao Hai over. He doesn't lack money, and not only is he good at fighting, he also has a Star Field in the Void Realm as his backing. That Star Field was the one that he conquered and established his own influence in the Void Realm. That influence is one of the most powerful forces in the Void Realm. Every day, they would receive an astronomical amount of jade essence as well as all kinds of treasures. I'm afraid it won't be easy to win him over from this aspect."
It won't be easy to rope him in. "Upon saying that, Qi Mo paused for a moment. Following that, he glanced at the Elders and said in a deep voice," We can't do it in terms of wealth or authority. I've already said that he has his own faction in the Void Realm, a stellar domain. The number of people in that stellar domain is probably not much less than our Desolate race. Even if it's not as many as our Desolate race, it's impossible for us to give him the authority to rule over so many people. Therefore, we have no way to rope him in. "
Qi Huan and the others quietly listened to Qi Mo's words. To be honest, they really didn't know that Zhao Hai had his own faction in the Void Realm. Furthermore, his faction seemed to be very large. Indeed, there was no way to rope him in with wealth or authority. Then, there was only one last method left. They looked at Qi Mo, waiting to hear what he would say next.
Qi Mo glanced at the Elders and couldn't help but frown. "Everyone, if wealth and authority can't rope in Zhao Hai, I really can't think of anything else that can rope him in."
When Liu Xuan heard Qi Mo, he couldn't help but frown. "What about women? What's Zhao Hai's attitude towards women? "
Qi Mo stared for a moment, he didn't think that the Elders would have such an idea. His expression couldn't help but turn ugly as he shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that would be very difficult. Zhao Hai has nine wives, and these nine wives are currently in the Divine Secret Pavilion, which is Zhao Hai's large artifact. He loves his wives very much, so I'm afraid that it would be very difficult to get them." Qi Mo's expression turned ugly as he shook his head.
