The Grand Void – Becoming a Dragon

Dade pilgrimage, gathering holy mountain.

A message came from the front.

"The emperor of the Great Chu Dynasty, after being summoned by the scholar's office, intends to surrender."

"When the old man was still in Tianji Pavilion, Emperor Chu took office, which was considered a great talent. Later, when I was with you in the scholar's mansion, I saw the great Chu Dynasty expand step by step. This Emperor Chu has great ambitions. Today, I really let the old man surrender. A bit dazed." Master Gao sighed with emotion, and said again: "But the general situation is such that even the Emperor of Chu is powerless, and he can be regarded as a wise emperor. Unfortunately, in this era, with my great virtue and sage, Dragon Lord, I am invincible in the world. He couldn't turn over."

"But he still has conditions." Liu Yuexuan said.

"What condition?" Gao Shi frowned, seemingly displeased.

"Emperor Chu wants to meet Lord Long in person." Liu Yuexuan said.

"After he has surrendered, he will naturally be allowed to enter Jusheng Mountain to meet Dragon Lord." Gao Shi said: "This matter is not considered a condition."

"No, he wants Lord Long to go to Tiannan Realm, enter the capital of the Great Chu Dynasty, and talk to him face to face." Liu Yuexuan said lightly: "This is the condition!"

"It's ridiculous!" Master Gao couldn't help being furious, and shouted: "The Great Chu Dynasty is about to fall. If he doesn't surrender, he will be beaten to surrender. It will only take a few more years. Lord Chaolong entered his territory and was ambushed by him?"

"Whether he has the intention of killing him is hard to determine." Liu Yuexuan said: "But the Dragon King is invincible, even if he leaves the territory of the Great Virtuous Dynasty, he is still invincible in the world, and the Great Chu Dynasty can't kill him. Besides, , even if the Great Chu Dynasty can really kill the Dragon Lord of the Great Virtuous Dynasty, it will not be able to change the end of the destruction under the counterattack before the Dade Holy Dynasty is destroyed..."

"You want Lord Long to go to the Great Chu Dynasty in person?" Liu Yuexuan said.

"In order to avoid greater casualties." Liu Yuexuan said: "The general situation has been established, and the Great Chu Dynasty can't resist it. It will be able to annex it in a few years, but how many deaths and injuries will be caused in these few years? How many lives will the court pay? How much financial and material resources will the Dade Dynasty pay? The army of the Great Chu Dynasty, the people everywhere, and financial and material resources will all be lost countless times... and we annexed the Great Chu Dynasty, everything that was broken today , Tomorrow will need to be rebuilt, instead of this, it is better to stop fighting today, completely annex it, avoid war, avoid rebuilding, and avoid more corpses and blood."

"But you need to put Dragon Lord in danger?" Gao Shi said in a deep voice, "No, I can lose tens of thousands of soldiers during the Great Virtuous Dynasty, but Dragon Lord can't suffer any damage."

"You are united as one." Liu Yuexuan said in a complicated tone, "The same is true in the army. Now the top generals of the Zhennan Army are willing to die in battle, and they dare not let Lord Long be in danger, but...they are all A living life is also part of the Great Virtue Pilgrimage."

"But Lord Long is the leader." Gao Shi said, "I am just a hair on my limbs, but Lord Long is the head of the heart, how can we compare?"

"Let him decide this matter in person." Liu Yuexuan said, "Also, let Marquis Zi Yan go to the hall together to pay respects to Lord Long."

"Zi Yanhou?" Gao Shi asked, "Does he have a problem?"

"Zi Yanhou naturally has no problems in the Dade Dynasty, but for the Great Chu Dynasty, it is naturally a big problem." Liu Yuexuan said: "I always feel that there are some things that are quite weird, but I am on the front line and cannot communicate Marquis Ziyan discussed it face to face, so he asked Lord Long to ask Marquis Ziyan... Maybe, Lord Long already knew about the problem, maybe."

——

Above the main hall.

Ziyanhou knelt down below.

He narrated all the past without any doubts.

"Even though Emperor Chu was defeated by my Dade Dynasty and fled to Tiannan Realm, he is not an ordinary person. If it weren't for my Jusheng Mountain lineage, maybe it was not the Dade Dynasty that unified Dongzhou, but the Great Chu." dynasty."

Zhuang Ming said: "This man has great talent and broad vision. Last time he appointed you to Tianhuang, he probably already discovered your identity."

Zi Yanhou raised his head, looking very astonished.

Zhuang Ming said: "He entrusted the lifeblood of the Great Chu Dynasty to your hands. I wanted to use my plan to annex the Great Chu Dynasty, and at the same time draw out all the helping hands that the Emperor Chu could use, and wipe them out, so as to avoid future disasters. "

After a pause, he continued: "However, there are some differences. In the end, I still didn't dare to take risks, so I stopped the help that Emperor Chu ordered you to ask for."

Zi Yanhou said in a low voice: "The difference that Lord Long said is about Emperor Chu's doubts about the identity of the humble minister?"

Zhuang Ming smiled and said: "This is part of it. This time the Emperor Chu invited me to the Great Chu Dynasty, there must be a deeper meaning. I want to take you along."

Zi Yanhou's complexion changed slightly, with some complicated meanings.

In these years, since his ascension, he has been in the Great Chu Dynasty for many years. He has received the kindness of the Chu Emperor, a high official and a generous salary, and a very high status. There is no shortage of various cultivation materials and various cultivation methods.

But he has always kept in mind his origin, as an existence with the blood of Dragon Guards, he knows his mission.

The Great Chu Dynasty treated him very kindly, so he betrayed the Great Chu this time, and he couldn't help but feel guilty.

"You dare not go?" Zhuang Ming asked with a chuckle.

"If Lord Long thinks this humble minister is useful, I am willing to go." Zi Yanhou was terrified in his heart, and hurriedly bowed and said.

"Emperor Chu may have the idea of ​​ambushes this time, but with the background of the Great Chu Dynasty, it is no longer enough to pose a threat to me, and if you go with me, your life may be in danger." Zhuang Ming said: "And your face Seeing Emperor Chu, I can't help but feel ashamed, if I really don't want to go, I won't force it."

"I am indeed ashamed of receiving the grace of the Great Chu, but I am a courtier of the Great Virtuous Dynasty, and sooner or later I have to face this matter directly." Zi Yanhou said: "Compared with the soldiers who fell on the battlefield, this minister is still the same. How lucky is he to exist in this world? Although personally, I feel ashamed, but in the overall situation, the war between the two countries checks and balances each other. There are countless examples of him trying to instigate officials from the Dade Dynasty to rebel against us. Yu Dayi Under the circumstances, even if I face the Emperor Chu directly, I don't need to bow my head to him."

"In that case, make preparations and go with me." Zhuang Ming said.

"It's just..." Zi Yanhou said in a low voice: "Long Jun has already expected that the Great Chu Dynasty will have an ambush, why do you want to go?"

"Because the Great Chu Dynasty can't kill me, it only needs to defeat the ambushes, so this negotiation will naturally follow the direction on the bright side."

Zhuang Ming said with a smile: "I personally took the risk, which can save tens of millions of soldiers from being killed and injured, save hundreds of millions of people from being displaced, and save all kinds of difficulties in rebuilding all parties in the future. This time, I have benefited a lot."

Speaking of this, I heard Zhuang Ming say lightly: "Besides, this is not the so-called risk-taking at all."
