The change of Gongyang Prefecture's master and Kuang Zong's replacement shocked the entire world.
Two prefectures attacked the Mu Clan, but they didn't gain anything. Instead, one of them was destroyed. Not to mention the other prefectures, even the three Divine Nations were stunned.
Kuang Zong established his own prefecture, Kuang Prefecture! Prefecture Lord Ye Qinghan had two million soldiers! Even the Mu Clan lost a part of their territory, but their Prefecture Lord didn't dare to ask for it.
Ye Qinghan didn't go overboard. He retreated most of the territories, but Black Moon County, Deities County, and the Southern Mountain Pass were the main passageways to the Endless Planes. Ye Qinghan sent troops to guard them. No one could leave!
When the Mu Clan saw Ye Qinghan retreating most of their territory, their Prefecture Lord wanted to thank Ye Qinghan instead. He took the initiative to help Ye Qinghan defend the Endless Planes.
San Qing Divine Nation quickly sent an envoy to Kuang Prefecture with a letter from their Prince, hoping that Ye Qinghan would submit to San Qing Divine Nation.
The special envoy's status was not small. He was a prince called Tai Qing Xuan. However, he was not favored and could be considered inferior.
Tai Qingxuan was young, but he wasn't impetuous. He had the dignity of a royal family and knew when to advance and when to retreat. The three God Slaves he brought were also polite, afraid of offending the rising star.
Ye Qinghan didn't let Tai Qingxuan meet Shura. He received him personally.
There was a courtyard with verdant hills and limpid waters. Divine energy filled the air, making it seem like a paradise with flowers and butterflies dancing in the air.
Ye Qinghan and Tai Qingxuan walked side by side. They came to a pavilion and sat opposite each other.
"Your presence brings light to Kuang Zong's humble dwelling. I wonder if you're here for yourself or for the Divine Nation's letter?" Ye Qinghan asked indifferently.
"Fellow Daoist Ye is a dragon among men. Three days ago, I heard that Fellow Daoist used a hundred thousand third-rate troops to flatten the main force of nearly a million people in Gong Yang Prefecture. I admire you very much, so I specially requested to pay you a visit, not only for the Divine Nation, but also to make friends with Fellow Daoist." Tai Qingxuan smiled, looked at Ye Qinghan, and got straight to the point. "Fellow Daoist, you should know that the Divine Kingdom's monarch usually ascends to the throne after thirty thousand years. The selection of monarch depends on the prestige of the princes and the support of the various Prefecture Lords!"
Ye Qinghan nodded, indicating for Tai Qingxuan to continue.
Tai Qing Xuan sat up straight and looked at Ye Qinghan as if they were equals. He said in a deep voice, "Although I am a prince, I have yet to obtain the support of any of the Manor Lords. My Three Pure Divine Kingdom has a total of three Royal Families and twenty Manor Lords. There are many princes but not many Manor Lords. With the addition of the Academy of Divinity, there are thirty Manor Lords. If I want to ascend to the throne as the Divine Lord, I must obtain the support of at least half of the Manor Lords …"
"Prince, you want me to support you as the Manor Lord of Kuang Manor? But I'm not the Manor Lord of Three Pure Divine Kingdom. Are you looking for the wrong person? You should be looking for the Mu Manor, "Ye Qinghan said calmly.
Tai Qing Xuan was gentle and refined. He did not get angry but smiled instead. "Qing Xuan naturally knows that the Kuang Sect seized the territory of the Gongyang Prefecture, and the Gongyang Prefecture took the initiative to attack the Kuang Sect. They deserved it and the three Divine Kingdoms could not say anything about it. Now, the Kuang Sect has become a big sect independent of the three Divine Kingdoms. However, the Kuang Sect will have to pick a side sooner or later and cannot become the fourth Divine Kingdom. Otherwise, the three Divine Kingdoms would not agree. Moreover, Qing Xuan already knows of Fellow Daoist Ye's background. You are from the Endless Planes affiliated with the Three Pure Divine Kingdoms.
Ye Qinghan sneered and shook his head. He said rudely, "It seems that Prince Qing Xuan is not suitable to be a lobbyist. The person I pledge my loyalty to must first give me enough benefits. Secondly, he can't give me up just like that. That's what I want. I don't have a sense of belonging to the Three Pure Divine Kingdom or the Sacred Dragon Divine Kingdom. If you want me to have a sense of belonging, you have to give me enough benefits in exchange. All other national interests are nonsense."
Tai Qingxuan was stunned. He didn't know how to respond to Ye Qinghan's words. He had never met such a straightforward person.
"If Prince Qing Xuan isn't ready, you can go back and think it over before telling me. However, please take a look at the map. Pojun Manor, Mu Manor, and Gongyang Manor are at the intersection of the three Divine Kingdoms. They have border contact with any Divine Kingdom. I believe the other two Divine Kingdoms will be interested." Ye Qinghan said coldly.
"This … Qing Xuan said the wrong thing. I hope Manor Lord Ye can forgive me." After all, Tai Qingxuan was too young. Compared to Ye Qinghan, an iron-blooded man who had rolled on the tip of a blade, he was not just a little bit better.
"Your attitude is not bad if you want to become the Divine Lord of the Divine Kingdom. However, you lack more than a little bit. I don't think you are qualified to sit on the throne, at least not now." Ye Qinghan said frankly.
Tai Qingxuan lacked experience and didn't know the ways of the world. He didn't know how to be iron-blooded and tyrannical. He was almost a blank piece of paper. The education he received was also to follow the rules. He was suitable to be a Noble Lord. However, he was far from being a Crown Prince or a Divine Lord.
Ye Qinghan thought Tai Qingxuan would be angry. However, Tai Qingxuan suddenly stood up and bowed. "Please teach me! There is still some time before the Crown Prince election. As long as Manor Lord Ye is willing to teach me, I am smart enough to learn. If I can ascend the throne, Manor Lord Ye will definitely be the State Preceptor! You can choose any resources in the world! "
"Why are you so keen on the throne?" Ye Qinghan asked curiously. However, his heart was pounding. If he helped Tai Qingxuan ascend the throne, he and the Kuangzong would be above the Divine Kingdom.
"I want to take revenge! I want to destroy the other two royal families. Please teach me! "Tai Qingxuan suddenly knelt down. In order to get Ye Qinghan's support, he gave up his dignity as a royal family.
"Your enemies are the other two royal clans, the Prime Clear and Jade Clear royal clans?" Ye Qinghan was shocked. According to Grand Monarch Shura, the Sanqing Divine Kingdom was established by three martial brothers. They were Shangqing, Yuqing, and Taiqing. Since then, the three royal families had taken the names of the three supreme masters as their surnames. The three clans protected each other and became the strongest forces in the Mythical Plane. However, in recent years, there were more and more conflicts in the Sanqing Divine Kingdom, especially among the three royal families. There was a trend of splitting into three kingdoms. However, he did not expect the internal hatred to develop to this extent.
"Yes. Back then, my father had the support of half of the Manor Lords. It was already set in stone that he would become the Crown Prince of the Divine Kingdom. However, the Yuqing and Shangqing princes joined forces to assassinate him. I was reduced to a marginal royal family prince. My mother was depressed and finally committed suicide in Tai Qingxuan Manor! All of this was given to me by Shangqing and Yuqing. Therefore, I want to ascend the throne and destroy the two royal families! "Tai Qingxuan stared at Ye Qinghan and revealed all the secrets in his heart without any hesitation.
Ye Qinghan looked coldly at Tai Qingxuan and rejected him without hesitation. He said indifferently, "You are not suitable to be the Divine Lord."
"Manor Lord Ye thinks that I cannot be raised?" Tai Qingxuan frowned and asked.
"Yes. I am worried that I won't live to see tomorrow if I work with you." Ye Qinghan didn't want to say more and gestured for him to leave.
"Mister, please be clearer. I am risking everything by telling you the secrets in my heart. Shouldn't mister let me know before I die? "Tai Qingxuan remained kneeling on the ground and asked in a low voice.
The surroundings were quiet. Even the birds stopped chirping. The willow branches swayed and fell onto the lake.
Ye Qinghan frowned at Tai Qingxuan. He really didn't understand how someone like him could survive until now. He asked, "Do you understand me? Why did you tell me your hatred? If I was a greedy person, I only need to send a letter to the Yuqing and Shangqing royal families and your Tai Qingxuan lineage would be completely massacred. You are too impulsive. You are gambling with your life. You don't know the price! This is the first time I have seen such an ignorant prince. "
"But mister isn't that kind of person, is he? All these years, I haven't revealed my thoughts at all. I only revealed them when I saw Mr. Ye and felt that he was trustworthy. Don't tell me that you think I'm an impulsive person who casually reveals my thoughts? "Tai Qingxuan smiled bitterly.
"What a 'you felt that you were trustworthy'. You should know that if your 'feelings' are wrong, your entire clan will be dead! You won't even have a chance to escape. If this isn't impulsiveness, then what is? No one in the world is worthy of your trust in such an important matter. If I were you, I would choose to work with you slowly until you become the Divine Lord. Only then would I tell you my goal and enter the second level of cooperation. I wouldn't reveal my secrets to others before we even started working together! This is why I don't want to work with you. "Ye Qinghan said coldly.
Tai Qingxuan was stunned. All these years, he felt that he had no chance. Only when Ye Qinghan suddenly appeared did he become ecstatic. He wanted to rope him in regardless of the cost, but this became Ye Qinghan's reason to reject him.
"Mister, please give me a chance! If I don't know anything, mister can teach me! I am willing to learn. I still have a hundred years. I believe that you can refine me into steel! Does mister Ye not have this confidence? " Tai Qingxuan didn't want to give up this last chance. He couldn't give it up. Only by working with Ye Qinghan would Ye Qinghan not betray him. However, he really regretted telling Ye Qinghan his secret.
Ye Qinghan looked at Tai Qingxuan and smiled evilly. He whispered, "There is no steel in this world that I can't refine. Since you have this will, I will fulfill your wish. Now that you are no longer a prince, follow Lou Aotian as an ordinary person. He should be able to teach you how to be a prince and a king."
"Thank you, mister! Thank you, mister! Qingxuan will not let you down! "Tai Qingxuan was overjoyed and kept kowtowing.
Ye Qinghan lifted his leg and kicked Tai Qingxuan more than ten meters away. He fell into the lake and coldly scolded, "You are still so incompetent. You are a prince and an existence that aspires to be the king of a divine nation. If you don't have a bit of dignity, how can you achieve great things in the future? Remember, you and I are working together. You need to be neither servile nor overbearing. In the future, you need to have the same attitude when working with others. Don't be so grateful when others agree to help you. How can others trust you? "
Tai Qingxuan climbed out of the lake with a wry smile. He was afraid of Ye Qinghan in his heart. When he faced Ye Qinghan, it was different from when he faced other people. He couldn't help but respect him.
"Tell me, what benefits did the Sanqing Divine Nation give me in order to make me submit?" Ye Qinghan asked.
