The two imperial families meet
Dai Weisi's move was indeed a significant investment, demonstrating his sincere commitment.
For Wu Qi, allowing the Spirit Hall to flourish within the Star Luo Empire was an achievement worthy of being recorded in history.
He accomplished what his predecessors had failed to do during his term, which was enough to make him one of the top Pope in the history of the Spirit Hall.
It must be said that Dai Weisi had done his homework beforehand and had a good understanding of Wu Qi's "needs".
However, he misjudged Wu Qi's ambition. Wu Qi did want the Spirit Hall to spread throughout the Star Luo Empire, but not with the approval of the Star Luo Emperor, but after unifying the continent.
Wu Qi scoffed, "Your ambitions are quite considerable."
Dai Weisi smiled in response, "My Imperial Father once said that as a prince of the empire, if one wants to stand at the pinnacle, one must fight for it. I don't want to become a fallen soul beneath Dai Mubai's feet; I must fight for it. I hope His Holiness the Pope can offer me some support."
Wu Qi did not refuse, and said with a smile, "You have informed me of such important information. In exchange, if you fail in the competition, I can provide you with protection and guarantee your personal safety. Of course, that's all. I have no interest in interfering in the internal affairs of the Star Luo Empire."
"As for other exchanges, as you said before, you'll have to fight for them yourself."
Wu Qi had no reason to be overly enthusiastic about this; Dai Weisi wasn't stupid, and he would easily see the problem afterward.
While providing security protection, the Spirit Hall did not offer any substantial assistance on the surface.
But for Dai Weisi, with this security guarantee, he can be more aggressive in his next move, turning the Star Luo Court upside down, which would actually benefit the Spirit Hall.
Dai Weisi first expressed his gratitude, then feigned confusion and asked, "Your His Holiness the Pope, I am unsure what price I am required to pay. Please enlighten me."
Wu Qi glanced at the other party and said indifferently, "Now that I have ascended to the throne, I will naturally Reform the previous dynasty's system. This includes Reform that will affect the entire continent."
If Dai Weisi still doesn't understand now, he's not worthy of vying for the position of crown prince.
Afterward, the two talked about some trivial matters, and soon after, Dai Weisi left Papal Mountain.
This time, he had obtained the security guarantee he wanted. Although it was an informal meeting, as the Pope, Wu Qi could not possibly break his promise in a conversation of this level.
For Dai Weisi, this meant he now had a powerful backer. From this moment on, he no longer needed to remain in the shadows. He could find a suitable reason to return to the Imperial Court and reclaim his rightful voice.
Time flies, and there are only three days left until the Coronation Ceremony of the New Pope.
The Heaven Dou Imperial Family and the Star Luo Imperial Family arrived in Spirit City today.
At this moment, countless eyes are fixed on the emperors of the two great empires. Even if Dai Tianfeng wanted to stand by and watch, he had to adopt a stance of stopping the war.
At Wu Qi's invitation, the emperors of the Two Great Empires went to the Papal Hall to discuss the upcoming situation on the continent.
The Clear Sky Sect has already made corresponding arrangements Bibi Dong's secret letter. In order to avoid getting into trouble, Dai Tianfeng did not mention this matter during the negotiations, but instead looked at Wu Qi with a hint of mockery.
Papal Hall.
Xue Qinghe launched an attack, saying, "As the emperor of the Star Luo Empire, instead of thinking about how to govern the country and its people, you repeatedly antagonize my Heaven Dou Royal Family."
"Ha, Dai Tianfeng, you've done a good job as emperor!"
Xue Qinghe's words were all prepared by Wu Qi beforehand. Moreover, the conflict at the border was originally caused by the Star Luo Imperial Family protecting the Clear Sky Sect. Xue Qinghe was avenging his father and was in the right.
However, Xue Qinghe looked like a wronged young wife, nestled in the arms of the Spirit Hall.
But Dai Tianfeng was no pushover either.
One of the reasons he personally came to Spirit City was to avoid the Heaven Dou Royal Family becoming too closely bound to the Spirit Hall.
Faced with Xue Qinghe's accusations, he chuckled, displaying the composure of a mature politician, "Xue Qinghe, you are still too young and impetuous. You want to challenge the prestige of my Star Luo Imperial Family, so it is only reasonable for us to take appropriate countermeasures."
"I didn't expect you to react so strongly. My Star Luo Empire doesn't provoke trouble, but it's not afraid of trouble either. What is there to fear if we go to war with the Heaven Dou Empire?"
"In the past, I was on good terms with your Imperial Father, and there was no war on the border for more than ten years. But since you ascended the throne, the border has been in turmoil. As for the responsibility, who is to blame? Those with discerning eyes can judge for themselves!"
As a stand-in, Xue Qinghe's abilities were very limited. Faced with this old fox, all he could do was get angry; he couldn't think of a way to deal with him.
But don't forget, Wu Qi was there. With his strength, he could transmit the words to Xue Qinghe's mind with just a thought.
With Wu Qi's help, Xue Qinghe immediately felt more confident and gradually calmed down.
"What? So, my seeking revenge for my father is considered a challenge to the imperial authority of the Star Luo Empire? The Star Luo Emperor is truly domineering!"
"I issued a nationwide arrest warrant for the Clear Sky Sect long ago. How they escaped the blockade and reached the Star Luo Empire was already questionable. Unexpectedly, the Clear Sky Sect Star Luo Imperial Family protected them as soon as they entered the Star Luo Empire. If you say that your Star Luo Empire didn't collude with the Clear Sky Sect to assassinate my Imperial Father, I absolutely refuse to believe it!"
"Heh, I've figured it out now. Pretending to protect the Clear Sky Sect is just a way to prevent Clear Sky Sect from falling into my hands, and then to catch you, this big fish!"
"Furthermore, protecting the Clear Sky Sect is a pretense; their true intention is to seize the land of my Heaven Dou Empire!"
Anyone can turn the tables and accuse someone.
Moreover, the Star Luo Imperial Family has many questionable aspects in this matter.
If the war were won, naturally no one would think Dai Tianfeng's decision was wrong. But now, the border is embroiled in a protracted war of attrition, and anti-war sentiment is strong within the Star Luo Empire. If Xue Qinghe's words were leaked, it would inevitably cause an uproar within the Star Luo Empire and even affect the foundation of the Imperial Family's rule.
Dai Tianfeng's heart skipped a beat.
Previously, when Xue Qinghe dared not speak out in anger, he thought he had the upper hand. However, he did not expect that Xue Qinghe was extremely good at pretending. These words have put him in a difficult position.
Left with no other choice, he could only turn to Wu Qi for help. Undoubtedly, without the intervention of a third party, the negotiations would not only fail, but he would also suffer a complete defeat.
Seeing that the other party had softened and his eyes no longer held the arrogance they had before, Wu Qi's attitude softened somewhat, and he casually said, "Your Xue Qinghe, His Majesty, you shouldn't be so resolute."
"His Majesty Majesties have come to my Papal Hall today not to quarrel, but to come up with a reasonable solution."
"Having considered the demands of Two Great Empires and the situation on the battlefield, I hereby offer the following suggestions for your review."
With that, he casually waved his hand, and the two documents fell into the hands of the Two Emperors.
