"Now that Nine Storey Tower's vitality has been greatly damaged, yet they still occupy such a large territory. This is clearly not the right time!"
"That's right. This Feng Wu Hui killed two of his own uncles. This is simply disgraceful. Even if the incident back then happened, it is still disgraceful."
"Hehe, the incident back then might not have been poisoned by Feng Yao Ri."
A storm was brewing in Imperial Dragon City. The greatly damaged Nine Storey Tower immediately became a fat piece of meat that was targeted by many first-rate forces of the same level.
At the same time, in Epang Palace.
Diva received a group of mysterious people from the north in the palace. When this group of people saw Diva, all of them raised their heads and a few of them sized her up.
"Rumor has it that Diva is the number one beauty of the human race. Seeing you today, you indeed live up to your reputation." The leading mysterious person said.
"How dare you be disrespectful to Diva. Quickly kneel down and apologize!" A few guards immediately drew their swords and faced them.
"Step down." Diva raised her hand and said, "You are flattering me."
When the few mysterious people saw the guards step down, they immediately revealed smiles and became even more unrestrained. But at this moment, a majestic pressure suddenly radiated over.
"Ka ka."
In just an instant, four of the five mysterious people knelt down on the ground. Their bones emitted sounds of friction and their faces were filled with pain.
As for the leading mysterious person, his face was covered in cold sweat. His body was trembling non-stop. His body suddenly wriggled and seemed to be expanding.
However, under this oppressive might, his squirming body was instantly compressed back. As for the four mysterious people kneeling on the ground, their eyes were all red and filled with killing intent. However, they could only reveal their killing intent. Under the oppressive might, their bodies had already started to change shape.
Their faces were gradually becoming distorted. Seeing their bodies beginning to twist into a ball, the leading mysterious person immediately knelt down on one knee and said unwillingly, "Niang Diva, please do not be angry. We were disrespectful. Please forgive us, Niang Diva!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the pressure disappeared. The four mysterious men recovered, but they were still breathing heavily. They didn't dare to look at Diva directly.
"If the Wu people's Great Shamans came, I would show them some respect." Diva said calmly, "You... don't have the right to be arrogant in front of me!"
The mysterious leader wiped the cold sweat off his face and said, "I apologize for my rudeness. But this time, we are here to discuss the peace at the border. In addition, it is time for the human race to send hostages to the Wu people."
"I thought that you all had come here to discuss the matter of forming an alliance. Since you're here to discuss the matter of hostages, then just wait." Diva said, "In a few days, this consort will pick out a few people and go to the Wu people as hostages. Guards, take these people away to rest."
After they left, Zhao Mingcong walked out and said loudly, "Damn those Wu people. They lost the battle at the border, but they still dare to behave atrociously in our palace. They are …"
"Haha."
Diva interrupted him and said, "That's because we haven't hurt them enough. Besides, the Wu people know that we can't start an all-out war with them. The Azure Dragon Army in the Northern Region can only hold them back and occasionally kill them. That's already the best we can do."
"Did the Wu people really come here to ask for hostages?" Zhao Mingcong said, "Who should we give them to? His Majesty has no children. Do you want me to … "
"You can only send a member of the Zhao family," Diva said, "This is for the human race and their honor."
Zhao Mingcong didn't want to, but he had to swallow his pride. If the Wu people attacked the human race with full force, the Azure Dragon Army alone wouldn't be able to stop them.
"But this time, the Wu people probably came here to discuss the matter of forming an alliance. After all, they are facing a lot of pressure from the Protoss." Diva said, "If we can form an alliance, it will reduce the pressure on the Northern Region. We can send more powerful people to Mount Buzhou."
"The Wu people probably have the same idea. I heard that not long ago, the Wu people were ambushed by the Protoss on the Mount Buzhou battlefield and lost a lot of territory. This time, they probably want to form an alliance with the Protoss, so …"
Zhao Mingcong said, "We still have a lot of room to maneuver."
"We have to break their spirit. Otherwise, they will think that the human race is a pushover!" Diva said.
"The people from the Heavenly Dao Academy and Zhou Chong from the Divine General's Estate should be able to fight with them. They will definitely go and watch the competition tomorrow."
Zhao Mingcong said, "They will probably take the opportunity to ask for a competition. Let them go first."
"I said we have to break their spirit."
Diva said, "Among the younger generation, Yu Shuang and Zhou Chong are not weak, but … they lack courage. The courage to face the Wu people without fear!"
"Right, isn't the descendant of the Futian Clan, Tang Tianjun, in Imperial Dragon City?" Zhao Mingcong said, "Let him fight with the Wu people. It would be best if he can win."
"No!" Diva said, "He can't do either. He's still a bit weak. I just tested the other five. They are all stronger than him."
"Then …" Zhao Mingcong suddenly understood and said, "Your Highness, you mean to let that little bastard Ye Tianze fight with the Wu people?"
Diva nodded.
"But that kid is cunning. I'm not afraid he won't fight, but … he might not fight." Zhao Mingcong smiled bitterly.
"That's not up to him." Diva said, "Pass down my imperial decree. Feng Wuhui will be the new Tower Lord of the Nine Storey Tower. He will be bestowed one thousand heaven rank pills and ten immortal pills …"
Zhao Mingcong suddenly understood Diva's meaning. He immediately accepted the decree and left.
The next day, Yang Wuhui was worrying about how to deal with the pressure from all sides when Zhao Mingcong suddenly came with Diva's imperial decree.
When Yang Wuhui found out that he was made the Nine Storey Tower Lord, he was dumbfounded. The factions that were still plotting against him immediately gave up on the idea.
Everyone knew that Diva represented the Human Emperor. Although the Nine Storey Tower belonged to the Feng Clan, it still needed the Human Emperor's approval to become the Tower Lord.
Just like how the Heavenly Dao Academy's Academy Master would also receive the title symbolically from the Human Emperor. That was the orthodox way.
But …
Diva's title was different. First, there was Ye Tianze's desperate help. Then, there was Diva's imperial decree. This imperial decree directly told the Imperial Dragon City and even the entire Imperial Dragon Realm.
The new Nine Storey Pagoda Master was under the protection of the Zhao Clan and the Heavenly Empress. Whoever dared to touch the new Nine Storey Pagoda Master, whoever dared to touch the Nine Storey Pagoda would be making an enemy out of the Heavenly Empress!
"It's here. It's really here." Yang Wuhui smiled bitterly, "Grandfather, this is the reason why Zhao E is desperately helping me. With Diva's imperial decree, the Nine Storey Tower has no way out. We will become the subordinate of the Zhao family!"
"Although it's not the best choice to be tied to the Zhao family, and it's also not the original intention of the Nine Storey Tower. But now … this is the only way."
