The Great Emperor of the North Pole Purple Tenuity scoffed at Fang Jiuyuan's explanation. He laughed coldly and said, "Inform the Zhou Kingdom in advance? What a joke! If the Celestial Court had to inform the Zhou Kingdom in advance of any actions, wouldn't the Celestial Court become a vassal of the Zhou Kingdom? "
Fang Jiuyuan was about to say something, but he was immediately stopped by Ji Xuanyuan's glare.
This matter was caused by you. What else do you want to do now? Do you think you'll feel better after a fight with the people of the Celestial Court?
Ji Xuanyuan said to the Great Emperor of the North Pole Purple Tenuity in a deep voice, "The Zhou Kingdom has no intention of becoming enemies with the Celestial Court. This matter is really just a misunderstanding."
The Great Emperor of the North Pole Purple Tenuity said coldly, "The Celestial Court has suffered such a great loss, and you think it's all settled with just a misunderstanding? The Celestial Court wants an explanation for this matter! "
"What kind of explanation do you want?"
"The Zhou Kingdom now has eight white jade slabs, while the Celestial Court only has six. Give me the two missing pieces of the Celestial Court, and this matter will be considered settled," the Great Emperor of the North Pole Purple Tenuity said in a deep voice, his eyes flashing.
Originally, he did not take the matter of the transaction with the Golden Horde Kingdom to heart. If this matter had not been disrupted by Fang Jiuyuan, he would not even have appeared.
But when this matter came out, the Great Emperor of the North Pole Purple Tenuity immediately realized that this was a good opportunity!
When it came to the research of the white jade slabs, the Hades in the Pugilistic World should be the most profound.
One reason was that Su Xin was a member of the Hades. Hence, when they were exchanging for the white jade slate, the Hades were all gathered, just like the Zhou Kingdom. However, the Celestial Court only had six.
Therefore, the Celestial Court was inferior to the Hades and the Zhou Kingdom when it came to the study of the white jade slate. Therefore, like the Hades, they were all searching for things related to the white jade slate.
However, these things were not easy to find. There were only a few of them, and the research on them was very limited.
Therefore, when the Great Emperor of the North Pole Purple Tenuity saw this opportunity, he immediately wanted to snatch the two expansion seals from the hands of the Zhou Kingdom.
However, Ji Xuanyuan didn't even think about it and rejected it directly. "Impossible! My Zhou Kingdom will never be threatened, and no one dares to threaten my Zhou Kingdom! You don't even have to think about the expansion of the white jade slate! "
The Zhou Kingdom had been ruling the world for more than 20 years. The old powerhouses of the past were not dead yet. Even if their strength was not at its peak, they were not much weaker. Therefore, when facing the forces of the Pugilistic World, the Zhou Kingdom could retreat, but it would not be weak and tolerant.
In the past, when the Xiao Family dared to plot against the Zhou Kingdom, the Zhou Kingdom dared to make the Xiao Family pay the price, forcing the Xiao Family to obediently lock themselves up for several years.
This was because even the Xiao Family did not dare to bet on whether the Zhou Kingdom would really dare to attack them.
Moreover, if that day really came, either a group of people from the Pugilistic World would come to be the peacemakers. After all, they did not want the people to be plunged into misery and suffering, or the Xiao Family would take the initiative to admit defeat. In the end, even the Xiao Family, one of the six aristocratic families, chose to retreat. Now, even if they were faced with the Heaven and Earth Palace's Celestial Court, the Zhou Kingdom would still not give way.
The North Pole Emperor Ziwei said in a low voice, "No room for discussion? Ji Xuanyuan, you know in your heart what the Zhou Kingdom is like now. Take out the expansion of the white jade slate, and I promise I will not cause trouble for the Zhou Kingdom during this period of time. You should know the reputation of the Celestial Court. "
Ji Xuanyuan shook his head and said, "There is no room for discussion. If you want to expand the white jade slate, unless the Celestial Court has the guts to come and rob me."
At the moment, the expansion of the white jade slate was not very useful for the Zhou Kingdom. Previously, Ji Haodian had used it to research the secret of longevity. Now, if he wanted to research something at a deeper level, he would have to continue to invest manpower and material resources in it. In the absence of a clear goal, the Zhou Kingdom was not prepared to spend a large amount of money to research this thing.
But even so, it was impossible for the Celestial Court to want it.
Who did not know the Celestial Court's wild ambition? Although the use of the white jade slate seemed to be very small at the moment, who knew what other secrets were hidden in it? Therefore, Ji Xuanyuan would definitely not hand it over to the Celestial Court to increase their strength.
At this moment, the North Pole Emperor Ziwei laughed maniacally. "Good, good, good! As expected of the Zhou Kingdom. The Celestial Court will remember this. This is Shengjing City. I will not fight you here. However, the Celestial Court will definitely give you a big gift for this matter in the future! "
As soon as he finished speaking, the North Pole Emperor Ziwei led his people and left. However, the hearts of the many cultivators from the Zhou Kingdom instantly sank.
In fact, for so many years, the Zhou Kingdom, the Hades, and the Celestial Court had not had too many conflicts. There was only one reason, and that was that they were too powerful. Once the scale of the conflict was not well controlled, the damage caused to both sides would definitely be quite shocking.
The Zhou Kingdom was strong in terms of numbers. Regardless of whether it was the lowest level of martial art practitioners or the highest level of martial art practitioners, the Zhou Kingdom could be said to have the largest number of martial art practitioners in the pugilistic world. No sect would dare to jump out alone and clamor to provoke the Zhou Kingdom. If they wanted to rebel, it would be no different from courting death.
However, compared to the large number of people in the Zhou Kingdom, although the Celestial Court and the Hades did not have more than a hundred people each, each of them was extremely difficult to deal with.
Moreover, the two of them appeared and disappeared unpredictably. Now that the Zhou Kingdom and the Celestial Court had a grudge, if the Celestial Court suddenly popped out to cause trouble, they might really catch the Zhou Kingdom unprepared. After all, one was in the light while the other was in the dark.
Seeing that everyone present was silent, Ji Yanxiu felt that the atmosphere was a little off. He directly snorted coldly and said, "This Celestial Court is a little too arrogant. Do they really think that they can stand shoulder to shoulder with the Zhou Kingdom? They actually dare to threaten the Zhou Kingdom, this is simply … "
"Shut up!"
Before Ji Yanxiu could finish his words, he was interrupted by Ji Xuanyuan, which immediately shocked Ji Yanxiu.
This was in public. He, the dignified Crown Prince, was reprimanded by Ji Xuanyuan. This made Ji Yanxiu feel a little embarrassed.
However, he was not an idiot. In terms of power, Ji Xuanyuan represented the interests of the Ji Royal Family, and the entire Zhou Kingdom Ji Yanxiu could only rely on the Ji Royal Family.
In terms of seniority, Ji Xuanyuan was his elder. He could not possibly talk back to Ji Xuanyuan, so Ji Yanxiu could only unwillingly lower his head.
Ji Xuanyuan said coldly, "From today onwards, your subordinates are not allowed to take even half a step out of Shengjing City!"
With that, Ji Xuanyuan directly led the crowd away, leaving Ji Yanxiu and his subordinates in a cold sweat.
Ji Xuanyuan's strict attitude and the tone he used to reprimand him in front of everyone showed that his patience with Ji Yanxiu had reached its limit.
Within a month, Ji Yanxiu had provoked the Celestial Court and the Hades, causing them to come knocking on his door. If he was given a little more time, would he go to the Good Fortune Gate or the Shaolin Temple and clamor to destroy them to avenge Ji Haodian?
This was not the way to court death. Now, Ji Xuanyuan felt that he was wrong. Back then, he might as well have chosen a puppet emperor. In any case, with the important ministers and experts of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Great Zhou Dynasty would not fall.
Who would have thought that according to their plan, they would choose such a thing in the end, causing trouble for them?
Ji Yanxiu and the rest returned to the Crown Prince's Residence dejectedly. Su Xin also immediately received the news.
"He brought this upon himself, he cannot live!"
Su Xin couldn't help but shake his head. This Ji Yanxiu had made a mistake. If he had admitted it honestly, then it would have been fine. However, he just had to resort to sophistry to defend himself. This time, his image in the eyes of Ji Xuanyuan and the rest could be said to be extremely bad.
Some people were just like this. They clearly had 10% of the strength, but they insisted on doing things 30% of the time. In the end, they were unable to accomplish anything, and more than enough to spoil things.
This Ji Yanxiu was even more extreme. When Su Xin first met him, he was extremely self-abased, and even self-preservation became an extravagant hope.
Now, this Ji Yanxiu finally succeeded. No one would have thought that in the end, the unremarkable King of Shu with no background would become the Crown Prince.
However, because of this, Ji Yanxiu was a little too arrogant.
Although Su Xin admitted that Ji Yanxiu's ability was not weak, and he had grown to this extent in just a few years, he was still far from those heroes with great talent and strategy.
He had wholeheartedly wanted to establish his own prestige, but in the end, he couldn't even become a puppet emperor.
Huang Bingcheng, who had been following by Su Xin's side, chuckled and said, "This Ji Yanxiu is really courting death. Now, he can only obediently become a puppet emperor."
But at this time, Su Xin asked, "Who said I wanted him to be a puppet emperor?"
Huang Bingcheng said in surprise, "Then boss, you want to …"
Su Xin's eyes revealed a trace of cold light, "I want him to not be the emperor!"
Huang Bingcheng immediately sucked in a breath of cold air, his eyes revealed a look of disbelief.
All along, Huang Bingcheng had thought that Su Xin only wanted to make Ji Yanxiu lose all his prestige, and make him a genuine puppet emperor.
But Huang Bingcheng never thought that Su Xin actually wanted to pull Ji Yanxiu off the throne!
In the eyes of outsiders, this kind of idea was simply like the Arabian Nights.
The position of the prince of the Zhou Kingdom was not child's play, and they were still officials. How could they depose a crown prince, and then depose him again? If that was really the case, where would the rules be? Wouldn't the Zhou Kingdom become a laughing stock?
Especially now that the Zhou Kingdom still needed an emperor to suppress the dragon vein and stabilize the people's hearts. No matter how capable the emperor was, as long as he could sit on the throne, even if he was an idiot, the experts of the Zhou Kingdom would let him sit on the throne steadily.
So now that Su Xin actually said that he wanted Ji Yanxiu to not be the emperor, this was simply impossible. At the very least, the experts of the Zhou Kingdom could not pass this obstacle of Su Xin.
This kind of behavior was the same as fooling around, the experts of the Zhou Kingdom would definitely not agree to it.
A trace of coldness appeared in Su Xin's eyes, "Why not? Ji Yanxiu is trouble. Since we have already become enemies, as long as he sits on the throne for a day, I will have one more trouble. It's better to pull him off the throne completely to be safe. "
