You Zai could only smile bitterly in the face of Yan Guilai's words. However, he had nothing to say. He couldn't just let Yan Guilai bow his head and kill him, right?
Actually, You Zai also had a lot of opinions about the Great Chu royalty.
Just as Yan Guilai had said, Chu Xingyun had established the Great Chu royalty in order to unite all forces and resist the Demon Race together.
Furthermore, the royal families of the Quintessential Realm and the Qiankun Realm were both controlled by Chu Xingyun's children. This way, communication would be easier.
However, many things had exceeded Chu Xingyun's expectations. Many situations had never occurred to him.
In short, Chu Xingyun was just a grassroots person. He had never been an emperor before, so he didn't understand the various drawbacks and habits of a royal family.
As the saying went, absolute power would inevitably be accompanied by absolute corruption. Although this saying wasn't the truth, it was infinitely close to it.
When it had first been established, the Great Chu royalty had still been very good. Chu Wuqing had also worked hard and had been very wise.
However, as the Great Chu royalty had grown stronger by the day, a large number of vile characters had started to appear around Chu Wuqing, as well as a large number of vested interests.
Under the instigation and bewitchment of these people, the relationship between Chu Wuqing and the Seven Great Generals had gradually deteriorated until they had completely turned against each other.
Many people who didn't like to put in effort, didn't want to shed blood and sacrifice themselves, but wanted to seize military power and become Great Generals. Thus, they had used Chu Wuqing.
Through various means and channels, these people wanted to get Chu Wuqing to issue orders and insert them into the military or even become Generals on the front lines.
In the beginning, Chu Wuqing had been very wise. He had resolutely refused to interfere with military matters and fully supported Shui Liu Xiang and the Seven Great Generals.
However, as time passed and the Great Chu royalty continued to grow, Chu Wuqing's ambition also began to swell uncontrollably.
After taking control of the political power, Chu Wuqing inevitably wanted to take control of the military, and he did so.
Facing Chu Wuqing's request, even Shui Liu Xiang and the seven human generals couldn't refuse it directly.
After all, Chu Wuqing was Chu Xingyun's son. As the saying goes, even if you don't give the monk face, you still have to give the Buddha face. Since he wanted to be in charge of the military, then let him be.
However, that Chu Wuqing loved grandiose achievements. He wanted to establish unparalleled military exploits and become the greatest ruler in human history.
It was a good thing to have such a heart, but the problem was that Chu Wuqing was surrounded by treacherous villains who didn't want to shed blood and sacrifice. They only wanted to climb up the ranks. How could such a group of people succeed?
In just a few decades, the huge military that the human race had accumulated over thousands of years was depleted by Chu Wuqing. There were almost no casualties.
Ten years ago, Chu Wuqing had actually set his sights on Shui Liu Xiang and the Seven Great Generals and tried to interfere with their private armies.
At this moment, Chu Wuqing was like a gambler who had lost his family fortune and was bent on borrowing money to recoup his losses.
However, how could Shui Liu Xiang and the Seven Great Generals accompany him in his madness? After all … these eight million private armies were the last trump card of the human race.
Once these eight armies, a total of eight million soldiers, were handed over to Chu Wuqing and then used by him, what would the human race rely on to resist the demon race's attack?
Therefore, whether it was Shui Liu Xiang or the Seven Great Generals, they decisively rejected Chu Wuqing's request. No matter what, they wouldn't let him interfere.
You Zai's eyes flashed as he said, "We have already done everything we can for the Great Chu royalty. Even if Big Brother Chu comes back, we can still give him an explanation."
"Although I don't know how deep the relationship between you and that Chu Xingyun is, in my opinion, no personal gain or loss is greater than the benefit of the entire human race," Yan Guilai said unhurriedly.
"Yes, you are right … Now, the human race is facing a life and death situation. We, we are standing on the edge of a cliff. If we take a step back, we will be smashed to pieces. There is no way to retreat anymore."
You Zai said slowly.
Yan Guilai looked deeply at You Zai and said, "What you do is your business. I have no right to ask. I only hope … that we will not become enemies!"
Oh!
Hearing Yan Guilai's words, You Zai raised his eyebrows and said, "Your words sound a little threatening!"
Yan Guilai smiled proudly and said, "It's not a threat. To be honest, in the entire human race, the Seven Great Generals are the ones I admire the most. Therefore … no matter what, I don't want to become enemies with you."
As he spoke, Yan Guilai's eyes flashed and he said in a low voice, "If the Great Chu royalty is really against me, then I will definitely not sit and wait for death. When that time comes, if you stand against me, I will have no choice but to act against you."
Hearing Yan Guilai's faint but hair-raising words, You Zai's eyes widened.
You Zai suddenly realized a problem. Although this Yan Gui Lai did not seem to have anything special about him, but … … for someone who could casually take out a few hundred million taels of gold, how could he not have a huge power behind him!
Furthermore, what scared You Zai even more was that Yan Guilai's eyes were filled with confidence. He wasn't afraid of the Seven Great Generals, but he didn't want to face them out of respect.
From this point of view, it could be determined that Yan Guilai definitely had the ability to confront and even defeat the Seven Great Generals. Otherwise, how could he be so confident?
You Zai narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, "I can't make a decision on this matter alone. However … no matter what, I hope to become friends with you and not enemies!"
Yan Guilai smiled faintly and said, "I hope so. Unfortunately … there are many things that are not up to you and me to decide."
With a long sigh, Yan Guilai said, "Alright, I won't disturb you any longer. I'm going to drink …"
As he said that, Yan Guilai waved at You Zai before turning around and rushing towards the hall.
You Zai frowned deeply as he watched Yan Guilai gradually disappear into the distance.
Just as Yan Guilai had said, there were many things that You Zai couldn't do as he pleased.
If the Great Chu royalty made a move against Yan Guilai, then Yan Guilai would definitely retaliate.
As Big Brother Chu's son, although Chu Wuqing had many faults, the Seven Great Generals of the Human Race couldn't sit idly by and watch Yan Guilai kill Chu Wuqing. They also couldn't watch the Great Chu royalty be overthrown by Yan Guilai!
With a long sigh, You Zai turned around and walked quickly out of the Golden Phoenix Restaurant, rushing in the direction of Nanming Academy.
When he arrived at Nanming Academy, You Zai immediately found Ye Ling and placed the warrant for Yan Guilai's assassination issued by the Great Chu royalty in front of Ye Ling.
Ye Ling gently picked up the wanted poster and looked at it. She couldn't help but fly into a rage. She was even a little furious!
