If a civil war broke out, no one would benefit, and any side that lost would be China's loss.
On the surface, the northern side of the Midland Continent had the advantage in numbers and had the support of many Dynasty Legatees. All of the northern side's people held their heads high and puffed out their chests, feeling incredibly confident, as if they did not place Qin in their eyes at all.
Their countless factions added together had tens of millions of people, and let alone Qin, even if a few more Dynasty Legatees came, they would not have to fear them. This was the reason why they were so confident.
However, they also had a weakness, which was that they could not gather their power together.
Even though Qin was at a disadvantage, no faction could compare to it in terms of military strength. As such, everyone paid great attention to this matter.
As China's oldest faction, the Ancient Clans also paid great attention to this matter, and ten or so elders discussed among themselves.
An elderly man said, "How about we mediate and resolve this civil war? If a civil war breaks out, the entire northern region of China will suffer great losses. Moreover, there are a few hungry wolves spying on us in the north. For China, we should act!"
Another elder said, "However, the northern side's factions are too vicious and don't care about anything at all. They don't give Qin any face at all. Will Qin, who is famed for his battles, compromise?
"Everyone should have experienced the power of the Chaos Imperial Star's descent last time. This time, Legatee Qin will become the most murderous and evil of all Legatees. How could he possibly submit?
"Also, the northern side's factions have the absolute advantage and are already quite arrogant. Will they still be willing to compromise with Qin?"
Another elder stood up and said, "That's how it is, but we have to try. This civil war will affect the entire northern side of the Midland Continent and directly affect the situation of the world."
Hearing this elder's words, the other elders sighed and nodded. They had to try and stop all of this.
The Hundred Schools of Thought and Sects all had two different views on this matter. One was to fight, and the more chaotic it was, the better. Many factions would fight, and the final victor would be the strongest. The other was to make peace. If a civil war of this scale erupted, China's battle power would be reduced by a quarter, or even more.
There was another large faction in China that also cared about this matter, and that was Flower Moon. 20 or so beautiful women sat around a long table.
"Big sister! Do you think we should sell these things to the northern side's factions? If we sell them now, the northern side's factions will need them, and the profits will be shocking. "A woman smiled as she spoke to a mature woman sitting at the front.
The other woman rolled her eyes at her. "If a civil war breaks out, all of our businesses in the north will definitely be affected. We'll be lucky if we don't lose money."
"Right now, the northern side's factions are in such a ferocious state, and all factions related to Qin are being crazily attacked. Even those who are suspicious aren't spared. Some of our factions are also being attacked, but I'm not worried about them. Qin is still deathly silent and hasn't done anything, but the more he's like this, the more afraid I feel."
One of the women laughed and said, "Why are you so timid? I think that Qin isn't that big of a deal. He's going to face the entire northern region, so he'll definitely lose. That's why he doesn't dare to react."
"You don't understand how horrible Qin is!" The woman who originally spoke retorted in dissatisfaction.
Seeing that the two women were about to start arguing, a gentle-looking older woman said, "Alright! Don't argue and see what big sister has to say. Should we participate or remain neutral? "
The mature woman sitting at the front maintained a smile as she looked at the women and said, "I think we should remain neutral for now. There's no need to put Flower Moon at a disadvantage for such a small amount of profit. Qin has such massive Fate, and he won't lose so easily. Moreover, the civil war hasn't broken out yet, so it won't be too late to do it then. That's all for today!"
Hearing this, the women all nodded and left.
"Yuyan! You'd best be careful. "Seeing everyone leave, the mature woman suddenly laughed and said to Su Yuyan, who was also about to leave.
Su Yuyan's face paled, but she nodded seriously and said, "I know, big sister!"
… …
Time quickly passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was the seventh day. Countless factions felt quite surprised – Qin still hadn't done anything, and none of his businesses had been opened. The Ancient Clans' proposals to reconcile and sign contracts had also not received any response.
It was as if Qin had disappeared, and there was no news of him at all. Could it be that Qin had given in?
The northern side's factions all started to celebrate. This was indeed worth celebrating, as they had suppressed the incredibly arrogant Qin. This made Qin feel quite afraid, and he saw just how powerful the northern side's factions were.
The factions that had submitted to Qin were also quite surprised – Qin hadn't done anything, and they hadn't received any news, making them feel quite uneasy.
"Mother! What do you think we should do? " Chai Shaohui asked Nangong Shuyue.
Nangong Shuyue lightly shook her head, saying, "I don't know. His Majesty is most likely preparing something, but I'm sure we'll find out soon."
Wei Guo was the same, and a Wei family's disciple asked Wei Xin, "Young Master, why hasn't Qin responded? Could it be that he's afraid? After all, there are simply too many northern side's factions this time. "
Wei Xin had submitted to Qin, so he naturally didn't have to address him as Young Master.
In response, Wei Xin could only shake his head. He could sense that countless people would die this time, and the entire Northern Continent would face a catastrophe.
…
Back at Qin, Zhao Fu brought everyone to the incubation room. There was a gray egg here – it was the Wyvern egg. After so much time had passed, it was finally time for the egg to hatch.
The half-meter wide egg continuously trembled and gave off a powerful might, and it seemed as if a small life was about to break free.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
Cracks appeared on the dragon egg. At the top of the egg, a piece of eggshell was pushed open, and a head covered in mucus poked out. A pair of large black eyes looked around curiously, and then it broke the eggshell in a few moments, and its body also came out of the eggshell.
This was a Wyvern that looked like a lizard. It had a pair of wings, and its body was covered with gray scales. It also had a pair of small horns, and its body was covered with slimy liquid, giving off an innate might.
After coming out of the egg, the Wyvern saw Zhao Fu and happily flapped its wings before flying over to Zhao Fu. Because it had already recognized Zhao Fu as its master, it treated Zhao Fu as its closest person.
