The Gnome Great Elder Guru said, "That's possible. It's very simple to set up a single-line monitoring and control system. We just need to install a positioning transmitter. Leave this to Lucino and me. We'll definitely complete it within five days. From now on, our Zither City will have the right to speak within the radius of this super magic cannon. Lord Qin Di, please give our first magic cannon a name. This is a supreme artifact after all, it deserves a name. "
Ye Yinzhu nodded and said, "As a supreme artifact, this magic cannon's destructive power is unimaginable. Since that's the case, let's call it Nirvana Cannon. Frankly speaking, I don't want to see it unleash its might. "
Everyone revealed a faint smile. With the arrival of the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools, it would be much easier for Zither City to negotiate with such a powerful weapon. It wouldn't be difficult to obtain peace within the radius of the Nirvana Cannon.
Ye Yinzhu heaved a sigh of relief when the magic cannon was completed. Over the past ten days, under his strong request, the Dwarf Race's Masters had rushed to complete the casting of this huge cannon ahead of schedule. With it, Zither City's strength increased imperceptibly.
"Masters, you've worked hard. Hurry up and take a rest. Elder Lucino, I would like to know, how long will it take for us to forge an ordinary magic cannon from now on? "
Lucino laughed heartily and said, "That'll be much easier. As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning. With this experience, we just need to mass produce all the components of the magic cannon at the same time. With enough metals, we only need a year to install the first batch of magic cannons together with the all-around monitoring and control system. When that time comes, I can at least promise you. Magic cannons can be seen on the peaks of every mountain in the Brenner Mountains. Speaking of which, Chi Jing is really not bad. He's very loyal to you! For you, his master, he even put down his pride as a Scarlet Spirit. Not only did he help us find several rare metal mines, but he also helped us find a few rich iron mines. After all, if only good materials could be used in forging, the dwarves wouldn't be known as the best in the continent. Sometimes, precious materials only needed a little. If it was combined with ordinary materials, it could produce an effect equivalent to more than 50% of the effect of using all the precious materials. Not only is it much easier to cast, but it also saves a lot of resources. Lord Qin Di. Don't worry, as long as we have another year, the dwarves will be able to contribute at least two thousand sets of the best armor and the entire magic cannons defense system. This can be considered our first gift to Zither City. "
Ye Yinzhu happily nodded and said, "Then I'll have to trouble Elder. Since everyone is here today, I can promise everyone that all races have their own freedom in Zither City. He was the Lord of Qin City. I will not restrict you in any way. Our ultimate goal is to work together to build Zither City. "
Lucino nodded and said, "Lord Qin Di. You don't need to say anymore. I think that no matter what, the dwarves won't easily leave Zither City. Let's not talk about anything else. You have so many good materials, it's enough to feed the hands of us blacksmiths! Hahahaha. "
With the dwarves' guarantee, Ye Yinzhu immediately felt more confident. After letting the blacksmith master and elder Guru rest, he, Purple, Anya and Lutes had an emergency discussion and made preparations. Although grandma told him that Plum Ancestor and Chrysanthemum Ancestor would return in about fifteen days, who could be sure that they wouldn't come to Zither City before that? He had to make sufficient preparations.
Before dawn of the second day, the entire Zither City was redeployed. The dwarves' 3000 warriors, elves' warriors and 100 Beaumont Giant Beasts gathered together quietly. The original residents of Zither City also temporarily retreated to the Brenner Mountains and settled down. The 3000 human soldiers that Anya trained were also gathered together with the dwarves and elves. The Behemoth Legion was arranged in another direction. Unless it was absolutely necessary, Ye Yinzhu didn't want to use this force.
Under Ye Yinzhu's arrangements, the first thing the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools discovered on the second day was that the Zither City was empty. Other than the people of the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools, they couldn't see any other residents of Zither City. However, Ye Yinxiu was very kind. While retreating from Zither City, she still left enough food for the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools for ten days. These ten days would be an important moment that would determine the relationship between the two sides.
"Yinzhu, are you ready?"
In the Overlord's Mansion, Qin Shang quietly asked his proud disciple.
Ye Yinzhu nodded, "Grandpa Qin, don't worry. I won't easily make a move against my clansmen. However, I must fight for the benefits that originally belonged to the people of Zither City. "
Qin Shang sighed, "Yinzhu, as long as you know your limits, your grandfather and I have nothing to say. After all, this time, our East Dragon Empire's decision was too rash. However, do you really have the confidence to shock the Grand Supreme Elder and the others? If you fail and anger them, I'm afraid … "
Ye Yinzhu said, "Grandpa Qin, don't worry. Although they are very stubborn, I think they will think for the sake of the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools. No one wants the East Dragon Empire's thousands of years of patience to be destroyed because of internal strife. Since they have already announced the establishment of the East Dragon Empire, they want to do something about it. I will promise them that as long as they don't interfere with Zither City's internal affairs, I will make concessions and hand over Zither City to them. If worst comes to worst, we can just retreat into the Brenner Mountains. "
Actually, even Qin Shang and Ye Li didn't know what concessions Ye Yinzhu had made for the sake of his clansmen. With his current strength in Zither City, he could even contend against the power that the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools had accumulated over the years. He had a group of the continent's top experts as his backing!
Another four days passed. Zither City was in turmoil, but the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools seemed very calm. However, this calmness made Ye Yinzhu even more vigilant.
The elf race's scouts were hidden around Zither City, sending news to Ye Yinzhu and the leaders of the various clans. At this time, Ye Yinzhu had already moved his mansion to the Brenner Mountains, living next to the giant beasts of Beaumont.
From the information sent back by the elf race's scouts, the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools didn't make any movements. However, the two thousand warriors of the Bamboo Sect were obviously isolated from the other sects. Ye Yinzhu's original mansion had already been occupied by the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools' Elder Guild. They were researching something every day. However, Qin Shang and Ye Yinzhu's family were isolated. Even Ye Yinzhu, the sect leader of the two sects, had never been invited.
"Lord Qin Di, Lord Purple Emperor, there is a group of people entering Zither City. They have met up with the people of the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools. There are about a thousand of them."
A handsome elf race's scout appeared and reported to Ye Yinzhu and Purple Emperor who were meditating.
Ye Yinzhu, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, slowly opened her eyes. A light flashed in her eyes as she murmured, "What should come has finally come. Purple, tell your clansmen to get ready. Since my clansmen are all here, it's time to end this cold war. "
They couldn't give up on Zither City completely. Putting everything else aside, the elf race's ancient tree was in Zither City!
The clansmen of Zither City who were already prepared quickly gathered together. Other than the Beaumont clansmen, the rest of the warriors gathered together and quietly waited for Ye Yinzhu's orders. Including the four elders of the dwarf race, all the experts of the clansmen were present.
Two hours later, in the distance, a huge flag suddenly rose up in the mansion of the lord of Zither City. The flag fluttered in the wind. There was a Golden Dragon on a white background. The Golden Dragon had five claws and no wings. Compared to the Dragons of Seven Dragon City, this Golden Dragon was covered in golden scales and had two legs.
Seeing this flag, Ye Yinzhu knew that the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools had finally made up their minds. However, no matter what their decision was, it definitely wouldn't be good for her.
"Ye Yinzhu, we know you are nearby. If you don't want Zither City to fall into a civil war, please return to the temporary mansion of the empire and hold the first meeting to discuss the ceremony of the founding of the empire."
A powerful voice came from afar, echoing through the mountains. This voice was obviously that Grand Elder Wei Ming from that day.
"Ye Yinzhu, don't go."
Anya immediately made a gesture to stop her.
Purple looked at Ye Yinzhu with a questioning gaze.
Ye Yinzhu shook her head and said, "I have to go. Don't worry, I am, after all, the sect leader of two Eastern Dragon Eight Schools. No matter what decision they make, it won't be easy for them to hurt me. "
Purple nodded and said, "Go. If they want to threaten you with force, call me immediately. "
Ye Yinzhu nodded and flew towards the direction of the lord's mansion.
Anya and Purple looked at each other and immediately gave the order to attack. Three thousand elven warriors, two thousand elven archers, three thousand dwarven warriors, and three thousand human warriors lined up neatly and slowly descended from the mountains. They formed a formation around Zither City which had no city walls. Their main task was to deter others. The Elves didn't need armor. Their bodies, which were covered with green leaves, stood tall and straight. Next to them, the neatly dressed Human Warriors were all covered with light armor. Because the Dwarves didn't have time to make it, these light armors were purchased from the Milan Empire for temporary use. The Spear Warriors and the Heavy Sword Warriors formed a neat steel phalanx.
The dwarves had the most imposing aura. Almost all their armor was made by themselves. This was the most important task every dwarf had to do when they reached adulthood. The dwarves' craftsmanship was undoubtedly very powerful. Their armor was so tough that even the heavy infantry of the Orc tribe couldn't break through it. Holding battle axes or hammers, they stood on the other side of the human soldiers under the leadership of Chief Lutes.
Ye Yinzhu calmly walked into Zither City. This was his territory. If he didn't even have this bit of courage, how could he protect the freedom of his companions?
As soon as he walked into Zither City, Ye Yinzhu saw the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools' warriors lined up neatly on the streets. The Eastern Dragon Eight Schools' warriors were easy to distinguish. The Plum School's warriors wore red armor, the Orchid School's warriors wore blue armor, the Bamboo School's warriors wore dark green armor, and the Chrysanthemum School's warriors wore yellow armor. Ye Yinzhu walked into Zither City. Other than the dark green armor of his own school, the other three schools' warriors were all lined up neatly. A murderous aura filled the air above Zither City. They all looked at Ye Yinzhu with calm and somewhat cold eyes.
Ye Yinzhu knew that these warriors probably already saw him as the sinner of the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools. However, he didn't care about these unfriendly gazes. With his head held high, he walked straight to the Lord's Mansion.
He arrived at the entrance of the Lord's Mansion with ease. The door was wide open, and on both sides stood the warriors of the Plum School and Chrysanthemum School. Each of them had a longsword at their waist as they watched him walk into the mansion.
Walking in proudly, Ye Yinzhu walked all the way to the Lord's Mansion's meeting hall. With a glance, he saw the three Grand Supreme Elders sitting at the head of the table. On both sides of them. On the left side were still the masters of the three magic sects, excluding the Zither School. On the right side were the three martial arts sects, excluding the Bamboo School. However, the arrogant second brother of the Chrysanthemum School, Wei Tingfeng, was nowhere to be seen. Instead, he was replaced by an elder wearing a yellow robe. This person had a cold expression. On his pale golden face, there was a pair of shining eyes. Sitting there with his back straight, he didn't look like an old man at all. From his current appearance, this person must have been extremely handsome when he was young. There was no need to ask. This was the master of the Chrysanthemum School, Wei Tingfeng. Above him, there was another person. This person looked simple and unadorned. He seemed to be slightly older than Wei Tingfeng. His expression was calm and gentle. Looking at his face, it gave people the feeling that he was smiling. He was easy to get close to. This should be the other master of the four martial arts sects, the master of the Plum School, Mei Rujian.
Ye Yinzhu walked to the center of the hall and slowly stood still. "Greetings, three Grand Supreme Elders. Greetings to all the masters."
The Grand Supreme Elder Wei Ming sat at the head of the table. He pointed to the first chair on his left and said, "Master Ye, please sit."
After all, Ye Yinxiu was the master of two sects. In terms of status, she was above the other six sects. Etiquette was still done. He let Ye Yinxiu sit at the seat closest to the Grand Supreme Elder.
Ye Yinzhu didn't stand on ceremony. He strode forward and sat at the seat closest to the Grand Supreme Elder. His gaze swept across his grandmother's face. From Lan Ruxue's gaze, he saw a hint of worry. He immediately understood that his guess was correct. Today's meeting would probably decide everything.
Wei Ming's gaze swept across everyone present and slowly said, "Alright, the eight sect masters are all here. We can now hold the first meeting since the establishment of the East Dragon Empire. Everyone knows. Our East Dragon Empire paid a huge price in order to defeat the Demon Queen of the Abyss. After the war ended, we were mercilessly attacked by the natives of this continent. This led to the destruction of the empire. After thousands of years of recuperation. Now, it's time for our East Dragon Empire to rise again. We will use this Zither City as our base and do our best to recruit the descendants of the East Dragon Empire. We will rebuild the empire's glory. The empire has been established. We must hold an official founding ceremony. Because time is too short, we can only use this Zither City as the empire's capital and the lord's mansion as the palace. For many years, our Eastern Dragon Eight Schools have been silently protecting the only bloodline of the East Dragon Empire. During the founding ceremony, we will pledge our loyalty to the new emperor of the East Dragon Empire. The founding ceremony will be held in three days. At the same time, we need to do some important preparations before that. "
Speaking up to this point, Wei Ming paused and looked at Ye Yinzhu. "Sect Master Ye, you are the lord of the original Zither City. You are most familiar with the surrounding environment. How about you be in charge of purchasing according to the list we have set? The empire's finance will allocate funds to you. You must complete it within three days. Is that okay? "
Since the East Dragon Empire had been established, Ye Yinzhu knew that she couldn't stop it. She slowly nodded and said, "Okay."
After hearing Ye Yinzhu's affirmative answer, Wei Ming's expression softened. "Lord Ye is very considerate. You came from the Bamboo Sect and now you are the sect master of both the Zither and Bamboo Sects. You are the first in the history of the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools to become a sect master before the age of eighteen. At the same time, you're a purple tier elite who's not even 18 years old. Your future is limitless. I think that in the near future, when East Dragon truly rises, my position as an elder will be taken over by you sooner or later. I hope that Sect Master Ye can let go of the past and work together with the other sects to build Zither City. Let this place become the foundation for the rise of our East Dragon Empire. "
Ye Yinzhu didn't say anything. She felt strange. This Elder Wei Ming seemed to have forgotten that she was disrespectful to him that day. His tone was much more amiable. His mood also relaxed a little, and he slowly nodded his head.
Great Elder Wei Ming continued, "Since Sect Master Ye admits your identity in the East Dragon Empire, then everything that belongs to you naturally belongs to the empire. According to what I know, apart from the twenty thousand residents, there are some special guests in Zither City. Since these people are Sect Master Ye's subordinates, then after the empire's founding ceremony, they will naturally be under the control of the empire. Sect Master Ye, please don't worry. We will not discriminate against these foreign races, but they must listen to the empire's orders. I announce that from now on, all non-human foreign races in Zither City will be under the control of the Chrysanthemum Sect and Plum Sect. After the founding ceremony, we will confer titles to the leaders of the foreign races. "
"Yes, Great Elder."
Chrysanthemum Sect Master Wei Lingfeng and Plum Sect Master Mei Rujian bowed and accepted the order.
A hint of coldness appeared in Ye Yinzhu's eyes. "Wait."
Great Elder Wei Ming looked at Ye Yinzhu. "What? Sect Master Ye, do you have any objections? It's not that I don't want to hand over these foreign races to you, but you're still too young. In terms of leadership, you're naturally inferior to the other experienced sect masters. Sect Master Ye, the most important thing is to cultivate and become stronger so that you can contribute more to the empire. "
A hint of a teasing smile appeared on Ye Yinzhu's face. You want to trick me with just a few simple words? It can't be that easy, right? This Great Elder Wei Ming really had a good plan.
"Great Elder, I don't think this matter can be decided so hastily. First, I want to make a statement to everyone here. Before the empire entered Zither City, apart from humans, the other races were not my subordinates. They were only partners that I invited to help build Zither City. Therefore, I don't have the authority to give them orders. Back then, I already promised them that Zither City and the Brenner Mountains would forever be their home. They've also put in a lot of effort to build Zither City. I don't object to the empire being established in Zither City. However, I hope that the empire and the original residents of Zither City can coexist peacefully. Both sides will maintain equal status and not interfere with each other. I can even ask them to completely give up Zither City to the empire and retreat to the depths of the Brenner Mountains. "
This was already the biggest concession Ye Yinzhu could make while suppressing his anger. This was also a plan that he had already thought of.
Wei Ming frowned. "Sect Master Ye, since you were the lord of Zither City, everything in Zither City and the Brenner Mountains naturally belonged to you. Now that the empire has entered, as a member of the East Dragon Empire's upper echelon, it's understandable that you're willing to give up your territory. These original residents should also belong to the empire. You know very well that the empire is at the beginning of its development and needs new blood to develop together. I heard that not only are there elves here, but there are also gnomes and dwarves. The empire needs to order them to help forge more weapons and equipment so that they can be of use in the future. Sect Master Ye, don't be controlled by those mutated races. Becoming the subjects of our East Dragon Empire is already very lenient for them. "
Ye Yinzhu sneered and said: "So it turns out that the Supreme Elder wants the dwarves' forging technology and the goblins' technology! Why do you have to make it sound so dignified? I repeat, no matter if it's the gnomes, dwarves, or elves, they are all my guests. They are also a part of the Brenner Mountains and Zither City. We will always be on equal footing with them. If you really want to enslave them, I'm sorry, but I can't do it. "
"Ye Yinzhu, don't forget that you are a member of the East Dragon Empire."
Grand Elder Wei Ming flew into a rage and slammed his palm heavily on the table beside him. "You want to protect these mutated races?"
Ye Yinzhu naturally wouldn't be scared by his anger. "Protect? What do you mean protect? They are my friends. I can't let them lose their most precious freedom because of their trust in me. "
"Sect Master Ye, there's no need to say anymore. Since they are your friends and you can't pass on the empire's orders to them, why don't you leave it to us? As long as we crush their confidence and give them some benefits, we won't be afraid that they won't be used by the East Dragon Empire. "
A cold voice came from the Chrysanthemum Sect Master, Wei Lingfeng. He seemed much calmer than his younger brother, and his words were also sharper.
Ye Yinzhu smiled and looked at Wei Lingfeng, "Does that mean that Sect Master Wei is going to use force to subdue my Zither City?"
Wei Lingfeng said, "Before Sect Master Ye came, we already had the same opinion. Zither City is the foundation of our empire, so it must be stable. If these mutated races live in the Brenner Mountains, it will be like a thorn in our backs. Either conquer or be destroyed. There is no other way. If Sect Master Ye really treats them as friends, then you must think clearly for them. Don't harm others and yourself. "
"Hahahaha."
Ye Yinxiu was so angry that she laughed, "What a good 'harm others and myself'. Since that's the case, I have nothing else to say. If you really want to use force against the original residents of Zither City, then please consider whether the empire's strength is enough. Also, I would like to ask Sect Master Wei, before coming to Zither City, did you and Sect Master Mei go near Faran and kidnap a girl? "
Wei Lingfeng's eyes revealed a trace of surprise, "Sect Master Ye's information is really fast. How did you find out? "
Ye Yinzhu thought that it was indeed so. After returning to Zither City and seeing the people from the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools, he asked his two grandfathers about Hai Yang's whereabouts. However, his two grandfathers didn't know anything about this. They thought about how a portion of the Plum Sect and Chrysanthemum Sect didn't come with the Eastern Dragon Eight Schools. In addition to the fifteen days that his grandmother Lan Ruxue said. Ye Yinxiu immediately deduced that the one thousand people who suddenly appeared to kidnap Hai Yang were most likely experts brought by the Plum Sect and Chrysanthemum Sect Masters.
Suppressing her anger, Ye Yinzhu stared at Wei Lingfeng, "Where is Hai Yang?"
Before Wei Lingfeng could speak. Elder Wei Ming, who was sitting at the head of the table, roared. "How dare you call the empress by her name."
Empress? Ye Yinzhu was stunned. When did Hai Yang become the empress? Could she still be the empress of the Eastern Dragon Empire? In an instant, he fell into a daze, and Siddarth's words about him trying his best to protect the ocean kept appearing in his mind.
That's right! There was no similarity between Hai Yang and Seedorf. Could it be … Wasn't she Marshal Seedorf's granddaughter?
Lan Ruxue, who was beside Elder Wei Ming, couldn't help but ask, "Yinzhu. Do you know Her Majesty the Empress? The Empire Founding Ceremony that we are about to hold is also Her Majesty the Empress's coronation ceremony. "
Ye Yinzhu stared at her grandmother, dumbfounded, "It's more than just knowing her. The Plum Sect and Chrysanthemum Sect Masters kidnapped Hai Yang from my hands. There was also a woman who stole a Divine-level Earth Sword from my hands. "
Lan Ruxue was also stunned. Her gaze turned to the Chrysanthemum Sect Master, Wei Lingfeng. "Lingfeng, is there such a thing?"
When Wei Lingfeng heard Lan Ruxue's question, his tone was completely different. He replied gently, "I'm not too sure about this matter. Back then, it was my Plum Sect Master's granddaughter who brought the empress back. Plum Sect Master, you see … "
Mei Rujian was stunned. He glanced at Ye Yinzhu. Not only was he the Sect Leader of the Plum Sect, but he was also the biological father of Ye Yinxiu's mother, Mei Ying. In other words, he was Ye Yinzhu's maternal grandfather! Seeing that his grandson had become the Sect Master of two sects at the same time … He still hadn't recovered from the shock.
He nodded. "That lass Ying Xue seems to have obtained a good sword. It was extremely precious. Why don't I call her over and ask her? "
Lan Ruxue nodded slowly and said, "Call her over. This was really like a flood rushing into the temple of the Dragon King. Yinxiu. What is the relationship between you and Her Majesty? "
Ye Yinzhu forced a smile and said, "Grandma, shouldn't you have told me first? Why is Hai Yang the granddaughter of Marshal Seedorf and the Empress of our East Dragon Empire? Marshal Seedorf is the Plum Blossom Elder of our Eastern Dragon Eight Schools, who is hidden in the various countries of the continent. Could it be … Isn't Hai Yang his granddaughter? "
Lan Ruxue nodded slowly. "You are the Sect Master of two sects. There's no harm in telling you this. Her Majesty is the only bloodline descendant of the East Dragon Empire's royal family. Once, she was ambushed by an unknown enemy and was severely injured. In order to protect Her Majesty's safety. We three Grand Elders decided to order Elder Plum Blossom to adopt her and treat her as our own granddaughter. The Milanese Empire was the strongest country on the continent. Elder Plum Blossom was also the marshal of the Milanese Empire, so she was the most suitable person to conceal the empress' identity. Even the sect masters of the eight sects don't know about this. This is the biggest secret of the East Dragon Empire. Not long ago, we received a report from the Plum Blossom Elder, saying that Her Majesty the Empress had actually risked her life to represent the Milan Empire to participate in the Seven Nations Seven Dragons Ranking Tournament that was held in Faran. That was why we sent the Plum Blossom Elder and the Chrysanthemum Elder to bring people to rescue her. Are you familiar with Her Majesty? "
Familiar, it was more than familiar! Ye Yinzhu sat there in a daze. He would never have thought that Hai Yang was actually the empress of the East Dragon Empire. He was originally a member of the East Dragon Empire. Now that the empress was Hai Yang, his heart was in a mess.
"So, from now on, the East Dragon Empire will be under the rule of Empress Hai Yang?"
Ye Yinxiu didn't directly answer his grandmother's last question. Instead, he asked a question.
Grand Elder Wei Ming said, "Of course. However, before that, Her Majesty the Empress still has a lot of knowledge to learn. Everyone here must wholeheartedly assist the Empress. Sect Master Ye, are you really unwilling to let those foreign races submit to the empire? "
Ye Yinzhu shook his head and said, "It's not that I'm unwilling. It's that I don't have that kind of authority. If you insist on doing things your own way, I'm sorry. Although I'm the sect master of two sects, I can't stand on the empire's side. However, one thing I can be sure of is that if an internal war breaks out in Zither City, then the East Dragon Empire's many years of hard work will go to waste. The consequences are not something the empire can bear. "
Wei Lingfeng laughed coldly and said, "As expected of Ye Li's grandson. Even your stubbornness is similar to his. Don't think too highly of those foreign races. How can the empire's elites be compared to those mobs? "
Ye Yinzhu also let out a cold laugh, "You're also worthy of being Wei Lingfeng's elder brother. Your arrogance is also very similar. Since that's the case, why don't we make a bet? I'll choose a person from Zither City. If Sect Master Wei can defeat him, then I'm willing to persuade the four races to submit to the empire. Otherwise, please don't disturb the peace of our Zither City. "
"This … …"
Wei Lingfeng wasn't an impulsive person. Seeing the confidence in Ye Yinzhu's eyes, he didn't agree impulsively. Instead, he pushed the burden to the other side, "This is an important matter of the empire. It's not something I can decide alone. The three supreme elders will decide."
Grand Elder Wei Ming nodded and said, "Since the Zither City's foreign races aren't willing to submit, then how about this. A civil war will bring great losses to both sides. Neither the empire nor the foreign races are willing to see that happen. I believe Sect Master Ye is the same. On the continent, strength speaks for everything. Why don't we have a martial competition? Both sides will choose ten people to compete. If the Zither Sect's foreign races win, then we won't interfere with their actions and will only be allies. On the other hand, if they lose, then the foreign races in Zither City will have to listen to the empire's command and become its subjects. "
Hearing Grand Elder Wei Ming's words, Ye Yinzhu let out a sigh of relief. As expected, the empire didn't want an internal war to happen. The empire's true fighting strength was only ten thousand people. Losing one was one less. This method of competition was also fair.
When she thought up to here, Ye Yinzhu nodded and said, "Alright, I agree on behalf of the four families of Zither City. Since there's no time like the present, let's do it today. Both sides did not overdo it. If the four races of Zither City lose, I will try my best to convince them. However, there is one thing I have to clarify. As their comrade, as the original lord of Zither City, I can only stand on their side. "
Great Elder Wei Ming said angrily, "Are you saying that we're going against the Empire?"
Ye Yinzhu said indifferently, "You guys forced me to do this. However, I will not make a move. One side is my clansman, and the other side is my friend. I don't want any of you to get hurt. But I'm going to be the referee. When the outcome of the battle is decided, try to minimize the casualties on both sides. "
Hearing Ye Yinzhu say this, Wei Ming's expression became slightly better. However, he heard the Chrysanthemum Sect Leader Wei Lingfeng say, "No. Those foreign races are your friends. Who knows if you can be fair? "
Ye Yinzhu's eyes flashed coldly, "If I can't even be fair, then I don't deserve to be the Sect Leader of the two sects. Since Sect Leader Wei doesn't trust me, then how about this, Grand Elder Wei Ming and I will be the referee? "
"This …"
Wei Ming hesitated. In the East Dragon Empire, he was the Head Grand Elder and the strongest person in the East Dragon Empire. If he participated in this competition, he would definitely win. After weighing the pros and cons, Wei Ming said, "Lingfeng, don't talk nonsense. Yinxiu is not only the Sect Leader of the two sects, but she is also Elder Lan's grandson and Sect Leader Mei's grandson. Everyone can see that this is fair, so we naturally trust her. "
