After Zhuo Bufan left the coast of the East Sea, he brought Zhuo Yue back to Infinite City.
This time, he took the initiative to look for Emperor Against The Firmament.
When Emperor Against The Firmament saw Zhuo Bufan, he couldn't help but mock him. "Zhuo Bufan, are you here to admit defeat?"
The bet between Emperor Against The Firmament and Zhuo Bufan wasn't over yet. To be honest, he really wanted to know what method Zhuo Bufan was going to use to help his man obtain the throne.
Zhuo Bufan replied when he saw Emperor Against The Firmament.
"Emperor Against The Firmament, I'm here today to declare war on you."
"Declare war?"
Emperor Against The Firmament's eyes lit up when he heard the word "declare war."
"That's right, declare war! However, it's not a battle between the two of us. It's a battle between your emperor and my emperor. "
"Do you dare accept the challenge?"
Zhuo Bufan knew that Emperor Against The Firmament was someone who only cared about his own interests. He was also easily provoked.
Therefore, as long as he provoked him with words, he would be able to get him to go all out.
In fact, Emperor Against The Firmament was a very conceited person. Because of his conceit, he didn't care about traps at all.
"Zhuo Bufan, are you asking me to fight you? I couldn't ask for more. "
Emperor Against The Firmament didn't care about traps. What he cared about was whether or not Zhuo Bufan would be cowardly and not dare to fight him.
Obviously, Zhuo Bufan was more direct and decisive than he'd expected.
"How do you want to play?" Emperor Against The Firmament asked.
Zhuo Bufan replied after hearing this.
"One month. In one month, we'll challenge the palace.
I'll bring my men outside the palace and compete with the current emperor of the Sea Dynasty, Hai Tu.
"Let the two of them compete in front of the world, and let the people of this country choose their own emperor. How about that?"
Zhuo Bufan couldn't wait that long, so he had to solve the problem in his own way.
Then the best solution was to have Hai Tu and Hai Xiaoyun have a direct duel.
Zhuo Bufan knew that this was completely unfair to Emperor Hai Tu.
Obviously, they had seriously affected the struggle for imperial power in the secular world.
However, Zhuo Bufan knew that as the executor, Mr. Against The Firmament would agree to this condition unconditionally.
"Hahahaha, Zhuo Bufan, do you mean to let your disciple compete with mine?"
"You could say that. Now that the Emperor is your man, you have a month to make him the Emperor you want. And I will train the emperor in my heart. "
"When the time comes, let the two of them compete by themselves. The people of the world will be the judges, and let them choose their own ruler. Do you dare accept?"
Mr. Against The Firmament shouted.
"Why wouldn't I dare? Zhuo Bufan, you're getting more and more arrogant. Since you want to compete, then I'll play with you. "
"One month from now, at the top of the Forbidden City in the palace, I'd like to see if you can still be so arrogant then."
As expected, Mr. Against The Firmament agreed to Zhuo Bufan's request.
In response, Zhuo Bufan smiled indifferently.
In this way, he'd shortened the eight-year-long struggle for the throne to one month.
One month from now, the results would be clear.
"Then I'll take my leave!"
Zhuo Bufan said, then turned around and left Infinite City with Zhuo Bufan.
… …
When Zhuo Bufan returned to the East Sea, he told Hai Xiaoyun and the others about the negotiations in the palace.
Hai Xiaoyun couldn't believe it.
"This, this Emperor, he agreed?"
Hai Xiaoyun couldn't believe it. The struggle for the throne, which was supposed to affect the entire nation, would be decided by a competition between the two of them. Moreover, it would be an absolutely fair competition.
Zhuo Bufan replied after hearing this.
"It doesn't matter if he agrees or not. The most important thing is that the person behind him has agreed."
"You mean Against the Gods?"
"That's right. If Mr. Against The Firmament agrees, then Hai Tu won't have any objections."
After Zhuo Bufan said this, Hai Xiaoyun frowned in a daze.
She hadn't expected Zhuo Bufan to do this. In this way, the struggle for the throne would become a battle between Hai Xiaoyun and Hai Tu.
There wouldn't be a war that would last ten or even a hundred years, and there wouldn't be any other countries eyeing the throne covetously.
It might seem like a child's play, but for both Zhuo Bufan and Mr. Against The Firmament, this was an important competition.
"Don't you think it's ridiculous? The Sea Dynasty's most important throne is decided in such a childish way! "
"Although it's childish, it's very fair! After all, the Emperor should be the most outstanding person. "
"Whether or not you have the qualifications to be the Emperor is not up to you, nor is it up to the genealogy in your hands. It's up to the people of the Sea Dynasty."
"Only if they recognize you as the Emperor will you have the qualifications to ascend the throne. Otherwise, even if you have the Hai family's genealogy and the most precious heirloom, you will still be a thief. "
"Hai Xiaoyun, I've given you the best opportunity. Whether or not you can grasp it will depend on you."
Zhuo Bufan's words made Hai Xiaoyun fall into deep thought.
Indeed, if Hai Xiaoyun wanted to start a rebellion, he would have no reason to do so. He would forever be a traitor.
Even if he had the Hai family's genealogy, as long as Hai Tu claimed that he had stolen it, then Hai Xiaoyun wouldn't be able to turn back.
Hai Xiaoyun himself also knew that he didn't have a legitimate reason to rebel, so his advisors kept advising him to lay low for ten years and make a comeback.
However, no one knew what would happen after ten years.
And now, Hai Xiaoyun had an excellent opportunity, an opportunity that was within reach of the Emperor's throne.
As long as he agreed to Zhuo Bufan's request to compete with Hai Tu in a month's time, then he would have the opportunity to ascend the throne and become the ruler of a nation. Moreover, he would be the ruler of a nation.
If Hai Xiaoyun didn't agree, then Zhuo Bufan would have to give up on him, and Hai Xiaoyun might never be able to ascend the throne.
In short, this was the best opportunity that Zhuo Bufan could fight for.
"Brother Zhuo, let me go back and think about it before giving you an answer."
In the end, Hai Xiaoyun couldn't make a decision on his own.
After all, Hai Xiaoyun and his team had been planning for a long time just to start a rebellion.
Now that Zhuo Bufan told them that this plan had to be scrapped, then he needed to give his subordinates an explanation.
After hearing this, Zhuo Bufan didn't force Hai Xiaoyun and instead replied.
"Okay, I'll wait for your answer."
After hearing this, Hai Xiaoyun left the hotel that Zhuo Bufan was staying in.
After that, he returned to the organization with a heavy heart. Then, he gathered his subordinates and told them the news.
After hearing this, his subordinates looked at Hai Xiaoyun in disbelief, then asked.
"Lord, this matter is too strange. The Emperor has no reason to agree to such a request because there is no benefit for him."
"Yes, Lord, why would the Emperor agree to such a request? No matter how you look at it, this request is a trap. As long as the Emperor isn't a fool, he won't agree. Even if the Reverse God behind him guarantees it. "
At first, the subordinates doubted the accuracy of this matter.
In this regard, Hai Xiaoyun could only explain.
"As far as I know, the battle between me and the Emperor originated from the bet between brother Zhuo and the Reverse God. For them, it doesn't matter who is the Emperor. "
"Most importantly, the person I represent is Zhuo Bufan, and the person the Emperor represents is Defying the Sky."
"The victory or defeat between us will determine the victory or defeat of the two of them."
"Obviously, they want to use the simplest method to decide the future of the Empire."
"To be honest, I'm actually quite resistant in my heart, but I know that if I refuse brother Zhuo's painting, then I can only blame myself for being abandoned like a chess piece."
"So everyone, now it's not just about our survival, but also the survival of the Empire."
"I need your wisdom to guide me to make the right decision."
"What do you think I should choose?"
Hai Xiaoyun wasn't an idiot. He knew that this decision might affect his fate for the rest of his life.
So he needed to seriously consider all the possible consequences.
Just as everyone was thinking hard about how to answer Zhuo Bufan, Hong Lian unexpectedly stood up and said, "That's right.
"My Lord, I think that perhaps we can agree to Lord Zhuo's conditions."
Hong Lian's words caused everyone present to be deeply surprised.
"Hong Lian, what do you mean by this? You know that this is a trap, but you still want the Lord to jump into it? "
The other strategists clearly didn't understand.
At this moment, Hong Lian continued.
"Everyone, I think that this is an opportunity for the Lord."
"Actually, everyone knows that we're acting without a valid reason. Even if we use the name of the late Emperor, we're still one step behind."
"Now that the Emperor has taken the throne and has gained the approval of the civil and military officials. If we start a rebellion now, whether in the eyes of the Empire or the people, we're rebels. "
"Rebels are naturally unpopular, but how can they win over the heroes of the world if they're unpopular?"
"Moreover, is everyone really prepared for a battle that will last a hundred years?"
"Hong Lian swears to follow the Lord to the death, but Hong Lian hopes that the Lord can become the Emperor loved by the people."
"Now this opportunity is in front of us. If the Lord can gain the approval of the people and become the Emperor, then he'll be the true Emperor."
"This will be of great benefit to the Lord's future rule. This concubine's humble opinion, please consider it carefully. "
Hong Lian finished speaking and knelt in front of Hai Xiaoyun.
Hai Xiaoyun silently closed her eyes and frowned as she pondered for a long time.
In the end, she nodded.
"Hong Lian has always been a meticulous person. If she says so, then I'll believe her."
"Thank you for your trust in me all this time. Let me fight the next battle alone!"
Hai Xiaoyun finally agreed to Zhuo Bufan's suggestion.
The future of the Sea Dynasty was in the hands of the two of them.
"My Lord, there's still a month before the competition. During this time, let us help you become an Emperor!"
The others didn't say much about Hai Xiaoyun's decision, and they all chose to support her.
Therefore, their next mission was to help Hai Xiaoyun become a truly respected ruler.
"Then, thank you very much."
Hai Xiaoyun cupped her hands when she saw the support of her companions.
… …
"If that's the case, then you must have made your decision!"
"Then let me confirm with you one last time. Are you sure you want to do this? The next battle will only be between you and no one else. "
Facing Zhuo Bufan's question, Hai Xiaoyun finally nodded.
"No problem, I alone will be enough."
Zhuo Bufan said after hearing this.
"If you lose, then you'll have ruined my plans. Whether you live or die in the future has nothing to do with me."
Hai Xiaoyun nodded again.
"I understand. Brother Zhuo, please rest assured. I won't have any complaints."
"In that case, alright! You still have a month. During this time, if you need anything, just let me know. I'll do my best to help you. "
"After all, I really hope that you win!"
Zhuo Bufan placed all his bets on Hai Xiaoyun.
Hai Xiaoyun said after hearing that.
"Brother Zhuo, don't worry. I'm not just carrying your hopes, I'm carrying the hopes of thousands of people."
"I won't lose this battle! If I lose, I'll atone for my sins with my death. "
Clearly, Hai Xiaoyun had come back after coming to terms with her decision.
At this point, Zhuo Bufan didn't say anything else.
In the following time, Hai Xiaoyun began to deal with all kinds of tests related to the emperor under the training of his subordinates.
From basic necessities to reading memorials. From her cultural foundation to her cultivation and martial arts, they were all training her in a comprehensive manner.
One must know that Hai Xiaoyun was going to be tested by the people of the whole country. Therefore, his every word and action could add or subtract points for the future election.
Two days later, Zhuo Bufan brought Hai Xiaoyun to Vast City.
Before the two sides decided on the election, Zhuo Bufan planned to let Hai Xiaoyun and Hai Tu meet officially.
Firstly, it was to declare war. Secondly, it was to give Hai Xiaoyun proof of identity.
Zhuo Bufan wanted this election to be a completely fair and just election.
Before Hai Xiaoyun agreed to Zhuo Bufan's request, he had already disregarded life and death.
So, he didn't hesitate in the slightest when Zhuo Bufan suggested heading to Infinite City.
Along the way, he only brought Hong Lian with him.
When they arrived at Vast City, they were ambushed several times. However, Zhuo Bufan easily dealt with them.
Clearly, the emperor didn't want to agree to this election.
However, he didn't dare to refuse Against The Firmament in public. Therefore, he could only think of ways to eliminate his opponent Hai Xiaoyun in secret.
However, Hai Xiaoyun had an existence like Zhuo Bufan by her side. It could be said that he had no chance.
In the end, Emperor Hai Tu couldn't stop Zhuo Bufan from bringing Hai Xiaoyun to Vast City.
When Hai Xiaoyun entered Vast City again, Purple Marquis's banner was fluttering in the city.
Clearly, Hai Xiaoyun's people weren't idle. They used this opportunity to build momentum for their new emperor.
When the people who didn't know the reason for Purple Marquis's return, they all came out of the city to welcome him.
There were all kinds of welcoming teams with gongs and drums. There were also flyers distributed everywhere.
All of them showed that Purple Marquis's return would set off a revolution.
In the end, under the escort of Zhuo Bufan and the people of the city, Hai Xiaoyun walked into the palace hall.
As for Ni Cangqiong, he was already waiting on top of the Temple of Heaven with Emperor Hai Tu.
