Song and Han's sudden departure surprised the people from the four seas. They chased for so long and they just left like that? But Jin, Wei, and Qi's people all realized something.
No matter what, two out of the five had left, so the people from the four seas had more confidence to face them.
No matter what, no one admitted to attacking Jin, so Taishu Feihua decided to be direct. "Hand over the 300 million and we will let this matter pass!"
His plan was simple. No matter what he said, there wouldn't be any results, so why not be more realistic and get the money first? They would talk about this after they got to the bottom of this.
West Ocean Monster King took out the bill from the Bank of the World and showed it to them. He shouted, "It isn't appropriate for the three of you to give this money to any one of you. Since things have reached such a stage, then the four seas don't want to offend anyone. Let's just forget about it. "
Everyone was confused about what he meant, but they saw him rip the bill into pieces. He opened his mouth and blew, causing snowflakes to fall down.
"…"
Everyone was speechless and stunned. It was as if they were frozen in a world of ice and snow. This was 300 million gold!
North Sea Underworld Lord screamed, "You are crazy!"
East Ocean Great Sage and South Sea Guardian King were both furious. If not for the fact that they were on the same side, the two of them would have definitely attacked.
Taishu Feihua's face turned black and he was so furious that he bared his teeth.
He couldn't help but scold them. Song and Han had left and the 300 million bill was destroyed. If they continued to cause trouble, they wouldn't be able to gain any benefits.
Both sides argued for a while. In the end, the people from Jin, Wei, and Qi said some threatening words before leaving. No one knew how they would take revenge in the future.
After watching the large flying beasts fly into the distance, the Lord of the North Sea and the South Sea Dharma King immediately confronted the West Sea Demon King. The South Sea Dharma King's face was livid as he said sternly, "This is not your West Sea's money. What right do you have to destroy it?"
The West Sea Goblin King sighed and said, "I had no choice. You all saw the situation. Those 300 million gold coins are the root of the problem. If we don't destroy them, there won't be peace in the four seas. I'm doing this for everyone's sake. With our strength, we can't fight against them. Do you want money or the lives of your brothers? Could it be that you are willing to see the brothers of the Four Seas suffer heavy casualties? "He had a sorrowful expression on his face.
The North Sea Underworld Lord said in a sharp voice, "We don't need you to lecture us. This is the money of our four families. Shouldn't you at least inform us before destroying it?"
Off to the side, the Great Sage of the Eastern Sea stared at the West Sea Demon Monarch's reaction with a glint in his eyes. He frowned and said, "Shh!" Suddenly, he whistled and made a gesture.
One of the demon cultivators riding the sea beasts directly jumped into the sea. His body swayed in the seawater, and his palms gently slapped in the water. The atmosphere and movements were a little strange.
The unusual reaction attracted everyone's attention.
Soon, a large number of fish appeared on the surface of the sea. The small fish kept flipping in and out of the water, turning white from time to time.
The demon cultivator who was soaking in the water opened his arms and gently slapped the surface of the water rhythmically. The surrounding shoals of fish gathered around him after searching for something. They seemed to be swallowing and spitting something out, and the things they spat out gradually floated around him.
When all the fish on the surface of the sea disappeared into the water, the demon cultivator grabbed a handful of things from the surface of the water and flew up to the side of the Great Sage of the Eastern Sea. Then, he opened his palm and revealed a pile of wet things.
After seeing what it was, the West Sea Goblin King's expression twitched slightly.
The Great Sage of the Eastern Sea pinched the things in the demon cultivator's palm and carefully examined them for a while. Then, he suddenly turned to stare at the West Sea Goblin King and sneered, "Good trick. I was almost fooled by you."
The South Sea Dharma King and the North Sea Underworld Lord realized something and quickly came over. Their fingers fiddled with the things that were fished up and examined them.
Just as they had guessed, it was fake. The bill that West Sea Goblin King tore up was fake!
One of them turned his head suddenly and the other slowly. They both stared at West Sea Goblin King coldly. The North Sea Underworld Lord screamed, "Kun Bao, what is the meaning of this?"
Luckily, the Bank of the World's bill was specially made, and the torn pieces didn't match. Otherwise, they really would have been fooled.
Including the Great Sage of the East Sea. If he didn't feel that West Sea Goblin King's compassionate look didn't seem like his style, he wouldn't have been suspicious.
The bill was just too real. If he didn't check it, it could be passed off as the real thing. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to fool everyone so easily.
The key was that they had been traveling together and basically never separated. Who knew when this old monster had done something to make a fake bill?
The few of them found it both infuriating and funny. No wonder he tore up the bill so easily. He was like a different person from when he took it from Niu Youdao's hands outside Heaven Valley.
West Sea Goblin King felt really regretful that he had been found out. He was so close, so close. However, he didn't seem to care and said, "Haiz, it was just an expedient plan. If I didn't do this, how could I have sent those annoying people away so easily? Why are you all looking at me like that? I thought of a way to keep the money and saved everyone trouble. Shouldn't you all be thanking me? "
The people from West Sea, including Hibiscus, couldn't help but look to the side. To catch a thief, one had to catch the goods. Their Monster King had been caught, so they all felt embarrassed.
"Scoff!"
"Keke!"
The Great Sage of the Eastern Sea and the Law King of the Southern Sea laughed coldly. It would be strange if they believed this person's nonsense. What expedient strategy? He was obviously trying to deceive them. Not only was he trying to deceive Tai-shu Feihua and the others, but he was also trying to deceive them as well. As long as he deceived them, the 300 million gold coins would be taken by this bastard!
North Sea Underworld Lord said in a weird tone, "Thank you? How do you want us to thank you? "
"Haiz, forget it. Now is the time to unite against outsiders. We're all on the same side, so there's no need to say thank you." West Sea Goblin King waved his hand generously.
Hibiscus suddenly said, "Damn it, I'm afraid we've fallen for Niu Youdao's trap!"
The situation was really awkward. She just wanted to help her Monster King change the topic so that the dispute over the bill wouldn't get out of hand. Now that they were in the East Sea Great Sage's territory, they were facing three clans alone.
Everyone looked over. The topic had changed to Niu Youdao, and as expected, it successfully attracted everyone's attention.
Lang Jingkong asked, "Are you suspecting that the dispute between us and the seven nations in the mystic realm was started by Niu Youdao?"
Hibiscus said, "Don't you suspect it?"
Hong Gaitian said suspiciously, "But the truth is that the seven nations attacked us first."
"The seven nations even said that we made the first move!" Hibiscus looked around and said, "We were tricked when we boarded the pirate ship. Think about it now, that bastard Niu Youdao always had his own spies. Don't you think there's a problem? "
Hong Gaitian still didn't understand, "What problem could there be? If not for his spies, we wouldn't have been able to escape this time. "
Hibiscus shook her head, "Why haven't you realized it yet? This means that he has spies in the seven nations, and he had the chance to make them misunderstand us! "
No one was an idiot. They all understood what she meant and understood what she was trying to say.
Duan Wuchang said hesitantly, "That's just your guess …"
Hibiscus interrupted, "It's not just a guess! Think about it, he was forced into a desperate situation by Sha Rulai, and he was expelled by the three major sects of the Yan clan. It's impossible for him to get the first place. We are the only ones left, and we are the best partners for him to work with. He can only think of ways to rope us in for help! "
Hong Gaitian bared his teeth and said, "That bastard still has the face to swear brotherhood with us!"
West Sea Demon King snorted and said with his hands behind his back, "In other words, all the forces in the secret realm have been fooled by that bastard? He tricked us outside the Heaven Valley, and we were chased by the other nations until now, and you still believe that he will help you deal with the other nations? "
… …
A large bird descended from the sky and landed in the middle of the army. Shang Chaozong jumped down from the back of the bird.
After settling everything in the Southern Province, he immediately rushed to the frontline.
He was the rightful commander-in-chief of the army, and he couldn't hide in the back all the time. Lan Ruoting was in charge of the logistics.
"Prince!" Meng Shanming led the row of generals to welcome him.
Without any pleasantries, Shang Chaozong invited the generals into the central tent and asked them about the current situation of the war.
The war had been frozen for a year. Although the Kingdom of Zhao had been caught off guard by the surprise attack, the Kingdom of Zhao had spent a great deal of manpower and resources in preparation for this year. With the Governor of the Kingdom of Zhao, Pang Teng, leading an all-out resistance, the war had temporarily entered a stalemate.
After asking about the war situation, only two people were left in the tent. "Ai!" Shang Chaozong looked at the map on the wall and sighed.
Meng Shanming asked softly, "Prince, are you worried about Daoye?"
"Commander Meng knows me best!" Shang Chaozong slowly turned around and said, "Commander Meng should have seen what Daoye said after that, right?"
Meng Shanming nodded slightly.
Shang Chaozong said, "I don't understand what Daoye is trying to do. I have already explained it to him clearly. The situation is not the same as before. Zhao State has prepared for a year, and it will take a lot of effort to attack them. Even if we win, we will suffer huge losses. But Daoye wants us to fight to the death with Zhao State. Doesn't he know that we can't swallow Zhao State? For now, we just need to restore Zhao State to its original state, return Gold Province to Thousand Grotto-Heaven Mansion, and obstruct Southern Province. It is not wise to fight to the death. "
"Also, he is forcefully going against the three big sects. They will not let him go easily. This is a huge threat to both him and us. I really don't understand why he wants to do this! "
Meng Shanming was also very worried. Slowly, he said, "Maybe he has other plans."
Shang Chaozong said, "Shouldn't you have told us about such a big thing if you really had something planned?"
Meng Shanming smiled bitterly. "Daoye is such a person. No one knows what he is going to do until the end. Prince, are you not used to it?"
Shang Chaozong did not know whether to laugh or cry. "How can I not be worried when so many people's lives are involved? Can you get used to it? "
As soon as he finished speaking, the messenger outside came in with an urgent report. "Prince, Commander Meng, there is an urgent military report from Zhao State!"
Meng Shanming was shocked. "Report!"
