Miao Yi wasn't used to Teng Taiji suddenly calling himself 'subordinate' so readily. Miao Yi replied, "I believe King Teng has some wise ideas. I'd like to hear them."
Beside him, Yang Qing tilted his head to look at Miao Yi. He found it strange as well. 'Was there anything more important than wiping out Governor Guang and the Green Buddha?'
Teng Fei said with a serious expression, "Now that the war has come to this, the most important thing is to win the loyalty of the entire world!"
"…" Miao Yi was taken aback. He didn't understand what Teng Fei meant.
Yang Qing was taken aback as well. However, a look of realization soon appeared on his face. He seemed to have understood something as he pondered silently.
Cheng Taize cupped his fists and said, "I implore Your Highness to ascend to the throne and win the hearts of the people!"
Teng Fei also cupped his fists and said, "I implore Your Highness to ascend to the throne. This is of utmost importance!"
"Ah …" Miao Yi was a little dumbfounded. Since he had caused such a huge ruckus and risked his life to compete with the heroes of the world, he naturally had this plan in mind. However, he didn't expect to be thrown into such a mess that he didn't know what to say. He was a little unprepared.
Yun Zhiqiu's discomfort disappeared as well. She slowly turned around and was also a little shocked.
Miao Yi gulped and looked at Yang Qing beside him.
Yang Qing gave Teng Fei and Cheng Taize a meaningful look. He roughly understood what the two of them were trying to say. They wanted to take credit for their support! By doing so, it would be a meritorious deed. It would also show that they were completely willing to submit to Miao Yi. This way, they would be able to avoid the possibility of being killed in the future.
Seeing that Miao Yi wanted to hear his opinion, Yang Qing slowly said, "Your subordinate feels that the two Princes are right."
Miao Yi coughed dryly. "Right now? The war has not ended yet. Is that appropriate? "
Yang Qing said, "The Green Buddha and the Green Buddha have reigned over the world for many years. It is only natural for the people to view them as the legitimate rulers. Then, in the eyes of the people, we will become the rebel army. If we fight against the Green Buddha and the Green Buddha under the name of the rebel army, there will still be some differences in the hearts of the people. In the eyes of the people of the world, Qing and Buddha's accumulated prestige is very heavy, the rebel army's rebellion may not succeed. If Wangye proclaims himself as the Emperor, then in the eyes of the people of the world, the nature is different, it is no longer a rebellion, but a fight for the throne. How would the people know the details of the battle? At this time, the people would only think that it was just hearsay and would not believe it. Once His Highness became the Emperor, the people would immediately think that His Highness had the strength to fight against Qing Fo. This would make the people stay neutral as much as possible and reduce the chances of Qing Fo obtaining resources. Also, His Highness' subordinates came from the Southern Army, the Eastern Army, and the Northern Army. What should His Highness' subordinates call themselves now? The Southern Army believes that they are Your Highness's direct subordinates, and it is inevitable that they will view the other two armies as surrendered armies. The other armies will also think that they are from the Southern Army, the Eastern Army, or the Northern Army. Now, this kind of narrow-minded thinking can be abandoned. When Your Highness becomes Emperor, you have jumped out of the Southern Army. Whether it is the Southern Army, the Eastern Army, or the Northern Army, they are all Your Highness's men. This will also allow the soldiers of the three armies to have a clear goal to strive for. That is why Your Highness becoming Emperor is an act of loyalty! "
"Yes, yes."
"That's right. What Mr. Yang said makes sense."
Teng Fei and Cheng Taize both agreed.
At this point, Miao Yi felt a little bashful. "It does make sense. It's just that …" He was clearly hesitant.
Cheng Taize placed a hand behind his back and waved it off.
It was obvious that they had planned this beforehand. A group of generals immediately rushed over and cupped their fists together as they shouted in unison, "We beseech Your Highness to ascend to the throne!"
As soon as they said this, some of the soldiers in the army began to shout as well, "We beseech Your Highness to ascend to the throne! We beseech Your Highness to ascend to the throne! "
It was obvious that these people were Cheng Taize and Teng Fei's former subordinates. It would be strange if they hadn't colluded with each other beforehand.
"We beseech Your Highness to ascend to the throne!"
"We beseech Your Highness to ascend to the throne!"
One after another, the others who didn't know what was going on began to shout as well. The more they shouted, the more spirited they became. Eventually, their voices became unified, and they began to shout in unison.
It was hard to tell whether Yun Zhiqiu was feeling happy or something else amidst the ruckus. This day seemed to have come a little too suddenly. Once Niu Er became Emperor, there was no need to even mention what she would become.
Teng Fei waved his hand and pointed to the troops behind him, seemingly excited as he said, "Your Highness, this is what everyone wants! This is what everyone wants. How can we let down the good intentions of our brothers?! "
Miao Yi was extremely excited, and his eyes shone brightly. Being supported by so many people was naturally better than having to spend so much effort to obtain the throne himself. At least he wouldn't have to embarrass himself. 'What do you mean by legitimate? This is legitimate!' He wasn't a wishy-washy person either. He immediately shouted, "Very well! It is difficult for me to refuse such kindness. I will not disappoint everyone! "
Cheng Taize and the others immediately stood in a row in front of their commander. After straightening out their movements, they bowed in unison and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
The generals immediately bowed in unison and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
The entire army shouted in unison, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Amidst the cheers, Miao Yi was overwhelmed with emotions. He didn't forget about the person who shared the glory with him. He turned around and saw Yun Zhiqiu, who had a rare look of unease on her face. He reached out his hand and grabbed her hand, pulling her to his side.
Yang Qing sighed inwardly. He really couldn't forget to share any benefits with this woman. If only it was Weiwei instead. Helpless, he followed Cheng Taize and the others and bowed again. "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
The generals followed suit and bowed. "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
The entire army shouted in unison, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Yun Zhiqiu looked at Miao Yi, a little embarrassed. There was actually a hint of shyness in her eyes. This had happened too suddenly. She was suddenly crowned the supreme ruler of all women in the world, and had to accept the worship of an army of billions. She really wasn't prepared for this at all. It felt like a dream.
It was also a strange feeling. She felt like she hadn't done anything at all, yet she had suddenly become the mother of the world!
This time, Miao Yi had truly given her a huge surprise!
Especially under such circumstances just now, Miao Yi didn't forget to drag her out into the limelight. He was even thinking about sharing the glory with her under such circumstances. This made her feel incredibly happy. Even though she felt wronged, this moment was worth it.
Miao Yi, on the other hand, didn't hold back. He waved his hand and shouted, "You may rise!"
Yun Zhiqiu wasn't someone who didn't know how to make an appearance. She quickly straightened her posture, and her eyes shone brightly. When she noticed Miao Yi's reaction from the corner of her eyes, she immediately followed suit and waved her hand to signal him to rise …
Amidst the boundless sea of clouds, on a lone peak.
"It's actually Lord White's men! It's been so many years, but he hasn't made a move at all. I thought he wouldn't be able to retaliate anymore. Who would've thought that he would still come back in the end, and with such ferocity at that. I wonder what those two think now … "Duke Guang suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed heartily.
Not far away, a group of generals who were pacing back and forth turned to look at him, a little confused.
As his laughter gradually died down, Duke Guang sighed helplessly and shook his head. "How innocent are we? Ying Jiuguang, Hao Defang, Kou Lingxu … Now, I'm the only one left … If I knew that he was Lord White's man and that he was surrendering to Lord White, I wonder if Kou Lingxu would still be so cruel to himself. Old Kou just can't let go of his pride! How could he kneel and surrender to a brat?! "
Gou Yue also sighed softly. "I was still wondering how capable Niu Youde was, but it turns out that Lord White was the one behind all of this. No wonder, Niu Youde's series of tricks must have originated from Lord White!"
Duke Guang took out a vibrating Star Bell and chuckled. "It's Lord Qing. Lord White said that he would come back to settle the score with him. Now that he's really back, I'm sure he's panicking!" He then shook the Star Bell to contact Duke Guang.
After a while, Gou Yue put down the Star Bell and asked, "What do you mean?"
Duke Guang sneered. "Let's not talk about surrendering. Instead, he wants me to join forces with him. After Niu Youde is eliminated, he will share the world with me and Lord Buddha!"
Gou Yue said, "I'm just afraid that once Niu Youde is eliminated, they will immediately make a move on Duke."
Duke Guang said, "That's why I said, I heard that Zhan Ruyi is pregnant. If you want to join forces, you have to send Zhan Ruyi to me as a hostage first."
Gou Yue said, "Agreed?"
Duke Guang said, "Asking me if I'm courting death! You're still protecting that woman at this moment. I can tell that Lord Qing really likes her! "
"A dignified Heaven Emperor became like this because of a woman. Birds of a feather flock together. What's the difference between him and Lord White?" Gou Yue shook his head and took out the Star Bell. After contacting it somewhere, he raised his head and looked at Duke Guang blankly.
Duke Guang asked, "What's wrong?"
Gou Yue was speechless. "Niu Youde has proclaimed himself as an emperor!"
"Proclaimed himself as an emperor?" Duke Guang was stunned. His face gradually twitched. "Presumptuous!"
Gou Yue asked curiously, "If he's Lord White's man and he proclaims himself as an emperor, what does that make Lord White?"
Duke Guang frowned. He also felt that it was strange. He moved the Star Bell in his hand and looked at Gou Yue. After contacting him, his face tightened. He gritted his teeth and said, "Damn Niu Youde! Even Lord Qing only said that he wanted to join forces with me. Niu Youde actually said that he wants me to surrender. Otherwise, he'll wipe out my West Army! "
Anger was anger, but there was also helplessness on his face. He clasped his hands behind his back and looked at the vast sea of clouds. If Kou Lingxu was still here, there was still a possibility of an alliance. But now, there was no hope. No matter which side he sided with, he would inevitably be swallowed up. Wanting Zhan Ruyi as a hostage was also a lie. If Lord Qing was willing to let Zhan Ruyi go, would he still care about Zhan Ruyi's life? He was just looking for an excuse to decline.
Niu Youde killing Kou Lingxu was equivalent to cutting off his other path of retreat.
"There's no way out. We can only hope that both sides will fight to the death. When their strength is greatly reduced, there will be a place for us in this world!" Duke Guang sighed and said, "Inform the troops to gather and escape into the Unknown Galaxy. Let them fight it out!"
Gou Yue nodded and turned to inform the generals …
"What did Duke Guang say?"
Inside the dragon carriage, Lord Buddha asked when he saw Lord Qing put down the Star Bell.
Lord Qing's face tightened. He didn't mention that Duke Guang wanted Zhan Ruyi as a hostage. If he did, he would definitely be ridiculed by Lord Buddha. If it was anyone else, he could still scold them. But if Lord Buddha were to scold him, he could only endure it. "He obviously wants to see us and Niu Youde fight to the death so that he can take advantage of us. He doesn't agree."
Lord Buddha fiddled with the rosary beads in his hand and said expressionlessly, "Wishful thinking. Even if all the troops die, I can still take the head of Duke Guang among the thousands of troops!"
"Master, Niu Youde has become an emperor …" A disciple suddenly reported.
"Traitor!"
