Overlooking Rivers and Seas, Who Is Fortunate Enough to See Even a Scale or Claw of Mine (3)
"So... this person also has some expertise in Martial Soul research?"
"A true all-rounder is quite rare!"
"It's this engagement... tsk, never mind. What's the reaction from the Heavenly Soul Empire and the Dou Ling Empire? Do they even know about this?"
After a brief moment of thought, Xu Jiujiu continued to ask the question.
Her thoughts jumped around too quickly.
So much so that the young man who came to report the news didn't even have time to react.
My brain went blank for two or three seconds.
Then, Xu Jiujiu by the princess's disapproving gaze, he quickly tried to salvage the situation, saying, "The matter of this person's engagement to the Grandmaster Shrek Inner Court has not been verified. It's just that some students are discussing it, along with Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen. According to rumors, Zhang Lexuan, Ma Xiaotao, and Ling Luochen all have feelings for him. Unfortunately, Mu En still favors Zhang Lexuan, so Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen had no choice but to withdraw... As for his achievements in Martial Soul research, his feats of single-handedly suppressing the Outer Court and Inner Court and contending with the Gluttony Douluo were witnessed by thousands of students at the Shrek Academy, so they shouldn't be faked... The Heavenly Soul Empire and the Dou Ling Empire should also know about this, but I don't know how they've relayed it. The main thing is that this person brazenly stormed Shrek Academy, unstoppable. At the school gate, he suppressed four students who tried to stop him with a single palm strike, and one of them even had his arm broken..."
"He sounds like a hot-blooded young man."
"Speaking of which, Poseidon Tang San who ascended to heaven ten thousand years ago, according to records, one of the two divine positions he inherited was the Asura God, right?"
"Mu En received him, but did not deny it."
"Now, the Poseidon Tang San has granted Mu En the identity of a God Trial Taker, but he hasn't denied this person's identity. Even though this person claims to be from Dou One... Speaking of which, what world exactly does Dou One refer to?"
Xu Jiujiu pause, he spoke thoughtfully.
Based on known intelligence, we analyze the various disturbances.
The young man kneeling on the ground consciously shut his mouth.
So as not to disturb the Princess's thoughts.
Only after hearing Xu Jiujiu ask again did he hurriedly answer, "Your Highness, the 'Dou One' here should refer to ten thousand years ago. The exact time is uncertain, but we can assure you that the Spirit Hall still exists. Moreover, according to rumors, the Pope of the Spirit Hall at that time was still Bibidong. Calculated from the year the Spirit Empire was destroyed, it can be pushed back by at most thirty years."
"Going back thirty years?" Xu Jiujiu seemed to remember something, let out a long sigh, walked to the window, looked at the bustling scene outside, raised his hand, and stroked the clear, bright glass window, muttering to himself, "So, more than four months ago, our world and the Dou One World, whose timeline was stuck ten thousand years ago, had already merged together. It's just that we were too weak, too weak to receive any information from the Deity, just like now... We still don't know what consensus the Deity reached, which has left us perpetually passive."
The young man kneeling on one knee was puzzled.
But seeing that the Princess had been talking to herself for a moment and then suddenly fell silent, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and temporarily play the role of the one covering her eyes. "Your Highness, I don't understand, what does this have to do with the Deity?"
Xu Jiujiu, he turned back and glanced at his subordinate.
Logically speaking, the other party was an envoy of the Star Luo Empire Envoy.
This basic principle should be easy to understand.
Moreover, she has already made her point to this extent.
All that's missing is writing out the answer process.
But seeing the genuine expression on the other person's face, and recalling their behavior along the way, as well as their role in negotiating with the Shrek Academy, Xu Jiujiu's expression darkened. He turned back expressionlessly and sighed inwardly, "Have you ever climbed a mountain before?"
"Climbing mountains?" The young man hesitated for a moment, then nodded, puzzled. "Yes... but what does that have to do with the Deity reaching a consensus?"
"Is the scenery at the foot of the mountain the same as the scenery you see from the top?"
"We're at the foot of the mountain now!"
"The Deity reside on the mountaintop!"
"Therefore, what troubles me most is not the gap between us and the Deity, but that the Deity are willing to share a part of the scenery they have seen with the God Trial Taker and their respective descendants, but are unwilling to share it with us!"
Xu Jiujiu, he spoke with a pointed meaning.
He slapped the windowsill with his hand, unwilling to give up.
His eyes were filled with helplessness and resentment.
However, now that things had come to this point, if the kneeling youth still didn't understand, he truly wouldn't deserve to be included in the delegation for prestige. He whispered, "Are you still worried about the White Tiger Duke's Mansion?"
"How can I allow another to sleep soundly beside my bed?" Xu Jiujiu closed his eyes, his thoughts swirling. He had considered trying to win over, sow discord, and exploit Ye Qingcang, this Asura God Test Taker, but he also understood the immense risk involved. He should instead try to win him over with unguarded sincerity. He sighed, "No one dares to entrust their life to the other... The sins set by my Xu Family ancestors must be paid for by me, Xu Jiujiu, and the rest of the Xu Family descendants. He who kills will be killed!"
The young man paused for a moment, then remained silent.
He can respond to some of the questions.
There are some things he can't say.
He's just slow to react and doesn't have many tricks up his sleeve.
The current Xingluo Royal Family Xu Family, suppressed the Dai Family after usurping the throne, causing many of the Dai Family's collateral branches to perish. In the past, these collateral branches were princes without real power. Given this disparity, regardless of whether those collateral branches survived or not, the main branch of the Dai Family definitely harbors a deep grudge against the Xu Family.
Perhaps the internal strife within the Dai Family was indeed brutal.
But at least we're family.
Even if you break a bone, the tendons will still connect it.
Even Xu Jiujiu, a descendant, acknowledged it.
What else can he do to persuade him?
Fortunately, Xu Jiujiu did not intend to make things difficult for her subordinate. She knew that her subordinate's emotional intelligence was still good, but her professional skills and understanding of human nature were still somewhat lacking.
So, changing the subject from what we just discussed, she casually remarked, "Speaking of which, it seems Princess Vina from the Heavenly Soul Empire has arrived, hasn't she?"
"Yes."
The young man breathed a sigh of relief and replied.
"In that case, ordinary sincerity probably won't be enough!" After saying this for Xu Jiujiu, he remained silent for a moment, seemingly considering the pros and cons. After more than ten seconds, he suddenly said, "Prepare carriages and horses... I want to personally visit this Asura God Test Taker!"
"Huh?" The young man first looked up in shock, an instinctive reaction, but after noticing Xu Jiujiu's serious expression and tone, he quickly lowered his head and cupped his hands, saying, "Your subordinate will prepare immediately..."
Go ahead.
Xu Jiujiu, he turned his back and waved his hand.
Still looking out the window.
It seemed that one could see through the towering buildings to the hotel where the Dou Ling Empire was staying, and clearly see the Dou Ling Empire delegation, who were unaware of the impending disaster.
It's not about right or wrong, it's just about living.
"So..." Xu Jiujiu voice echoed Youyou in the room, "Xue Lingxun, you absolutely have to do something foolish... If you don't do something foolish, how am I supposed to prove my sincerity?"
There was a knock on the door.
Xu Jiujiu, she picked up the coat from the hanger.
I went downstairs and boarded the carriage at the door.
As the wheels rolled over the stone slabs, the storm spun a little faster.
