âYang Hong? You said youâre Yang Hong?â Yin Wuyou looked at the man in front of him, whose face was bruised and swollen and whose original appearance was barely recognizable. Her gaze then fell on the Mo Mei Sword in his hand.
Finally, she couldnât hold back her laughter.
âHow did you become like this?â
When the others arrived, Yin Wuyou was already laughing so hard that she couldnât speak.
Yang Hong had an aggrieved look on his face. Combined with his appearance, the scene appeared unusually comical.
âItâs all in order to complete the mission the marquis ordered.â Yang Hong felt wronged.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âThank you for your hard work.â Zhou Shu patted Yang Hongâs shoulder and smiled. âYouâve made a great contribution by capturing Shen Yue alive this time.â
âIâm like this now because of him!â Yang Hong kicked Shen Yue, who was already under the control of Great Xiaâs diplomatic missionâs guards. Shen Yue glared at him angrily, and Yang Hong also glared at him rudely. Holding the Mo Mei Sword, he had gone to the diplomatic missions of the various nations to exchange pointers. The diplomatic missions of other nations didnât care about him.
Shen Yue doesnât care about martial virtue. Just because his cultivation is higher than mine, he smacked my face so much!
What happened in the end? Didnât my sword still defeat him? Yang Hong thought smugly.
He had noticed that the soldiers from Great Qin were trying to capture the members of Great Weiâs diplomatic mission, so he had secretly followed Shen Yue and taken the opportunity to strike. He didnât expect he would really succeed.
Yang Hong had stabbed Shen Yue. His injuries were not minor, but they were not life-threatening
He glanced coldly at Zhou Shu, closed his eyes, and said no more.
âWill you kill him or not?â Yin Wuyou asked Zhou Shu.
âLeave it to Great Qin.â Zhou Shu said. âHeâs the cause of everything that happened today. I reckon that the Qin emperor wants to cut him into pieces. We are guests, so itâs not convenient for us to meddle in this.â
âMarquis Zhou, you are indeed a particular person.â A voice sounded, and Xu Shi walked over from the corner of the street.
His body rippled with a bloody aura that was invisible to the naked eye. Who knew how many demonic beasts he had killed.
Xu Shiâs expression was very calm. It was impossible to tell that he had just experienced a huge battle.
âMarquis Zhou, leave Shen Yue to me.â Xu Shi cupped his hands toward Zhou Shu. âMany thanks for your help this time, Marquis. My Great Qin will definitely reward you greatly.â
âLord Xu, you are too polite.â Zhou Shu signaled Chen Ji to hand Shen Yue over to Xu Shi and cupped his hands.
Xu Shi reached out to take Shen Yue from Chen Jiâs hands.
Shen Yue suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Xu Shi coldly. âThereâs indeed a problem with Great Qin!â
Just as he spoke, Xu Shiâs hand on Shen Yueâs shoulder already emitted a faint light, and then Shen Yue couldnât make another sound.
Zhou Shuâs heart stirred.
If he didnât know anything, he wouldnât think too much when he heard Shen Yueâs words.
But he knew bits of information.
Shen Yueâs words made him instantly think of Great Qinâs imperial cauldron!
Previously, when he had entered the Wang Xin dream, Zhou Shu had already learned some information about the imperial cauldron.
The Great Qin had set up the nine checkpoints to test the diplomatic mission of the various nations precisely so that they could think of a way to repair their imperial cauldron.
But for some reason, they seemed to have given up.
From the looks of it now, Great Wei seemed to know that something was wrong with Great Qinâs imperial cauldron. Previously, Shen Yue had used the excuse of challenging him to create a mirror in public just to test this?
For the sake of probing if something is wrong with Great Qinâs imperial cauldron, Great Wei formed a diplomatic mission? What is Great Wei after?
Arenât they afraid of Great Qin taking revenge on them?
Zhou Shu didnât know what use the imperial cauldron had, but he knew that the power of Great Qin was definitely above that of Great Wei.
Is Great Wei courting death?
âLord Xu, is there anything we can help you with?â Zhou Shu asked.
âNo need.â Xu Shi shook his head. âThe situation in the city is under control. The demonic beasts will be wiped out soon.
âYou can return to the post house to rest for a while. His Majesty will summon you soon.â
After Xu Shi finished speaking, he carried Shen Yue and disappeared into the streets in a few steps.
Zhou Shu looked around and could no longer see any demonic beasts. He knew that this opportunity to gain experience had come to an end.
âLetâs go back.â
Back at the post house, Chen Ji and the guards went to do their own things.
Zhou Shu suddenly called out to Yin Wuyou and asked softly, âGrand Minister, have you heard of the imperial cauldrons?â
âImperial cauldrons? Are they uncommon weapons? Iâve never heard of them,â Yin Wuyou said doubtfully. Zhou Shu frowned. Even Yin Wuyou doesnât know of the existence of the imperial cauldrons?
This is interesting.
Zhou Shu didnât suspect Yin Wuyou was lying. Since she said she didnât know, then she definitely didnât know.
These imperial cauldrons are really a little mysterious. If not for the problem with Great Qinâs imperial cauldron, Wang Xin probably wouldnât have heard about it either.
âI guess so,â Zhou Shu said casually.
After returning to his room, Zhou Shu no longer thought about the imperial cauldrons. Who cares what they are? It has nothing to do with me.
Taking stock of his harvest loot was the most important thing. With a thought, the Legendary Armament Canon appeared in front of him. The pages rustled as the contents of the book flashed past his eyes.
A moment later, Zhou Shu couldnât help letting out a peal of laughter resembling a male duckâs. Yin Wuyou and Lu Wenshuang, who were outside, were confused.
Great Wei is such a good nation, Zhou Shu praised. They sacrificed their diplomatic mission and summoned so many demonic beasts to help me gain experience. This kind of spirit is worthy of praise.
