"What is our relationship with the temple? It has always been a relationship of use and being used." The Great Elder said coldly: "We are just pirates, they support us to become one of the seven empires of Longquan Continent. They just want us to become them
thugs to serve their plans.
And we agreed to form an alliance with them because we no longer want to be pirates, we want to have a place in Longquan Continent. And to achieve this goal, we can only borrow their power.
Although we are no longer pirates, we still cannot escape our identity as pirates. In the eyes of the Longquan mainlanders, we will always be just pirates.
Therefore, we cannot regard ourselves as nobles. We must clearly realize that we are still pirates. Since we are pirates, we must act according to the principles of pirates. Don't think about bitches pretending to be ladies.
Pretending to be just a bitch.
Loyalty? In the eyes of us pirates, there is only the word profit. When we decided to form an alliance with the temple, it was because of the word profit. We have never cared about the irresponsible remarks made by Longquan Continent. Now we have left the temple.
, we are also inspired by justice and move towards the righteous side.
What are the rules for pirates to deal with this kind of thing? Third Elder, please don’t forget our original rules! Once this matter is over, treat Bai Xi’s family well.”
The older third elder gave a wry smile. Yes, who among the pirates back then would mention their pirate identity? It was not that they had forgotten it, but that they had selectively sealed it in their minds. But they have completely washed it away in recent years.
Have they received this kind of brand? No, they are still pirates, and they have an additional identity, traitors of mankind.
There is nothing wrong with the Great Elder mentioning the identity of pirates again. The Eagle Kingdom cannot be tied to the chariot of the temple and go to destruction together. This is the law of pirates. Sacrifice members to obtain the maximum benefit, this is also the law of pirates. What is benevolence and morality?
Pirates? What's more, is the temple an organization worthy of their benevolence and morality?
"Leave the matter of Bai Xi's family to me," said the third elder. He also agreed to this plan.
"Lao Qi, tell me your plan." The great elder thought for a while and said.
"Release the news of Zhang Han's location. Then we will secretly cooperate with the Canglong Legion's rescue operation." The seventh elder said.
"Will they come? Don't they think this is just a trap we set?" the third elder said.
"Secretly inform the Qinglong Empire. Let their people do it." The Seventh Elder smiled and said: "It's perfect! We all left with an excuse, for example, let me take five people to pledge for the Qinglong Empire.
Great Elder, please come over and coordinate with the Azure Dragon Empire. The Third Elder and the Second Elder will mobilize the army. The other elders and the outer elders will be sent to each city to take charge. Ask them to send six people to rescue, and it should be successful. Besides, the Azure Dragon Army cannot be without anything.
Move and act chaotically, we will have nothing to lose when the truth comes out."
"Is it possible?" The first elder looked at the third elder and asked.
"It's feasible." The third elder nodded and said, "In addition to Bai Xi, arrange two to three more clever people to stay in Eagle City. We can't lose any more important personnel. But will the Qinglong Empire cooperate with us?"
"They will cooperate and they are happy to be the mediator. If they don't cooperate, we will discuss it again. This way we can also know how deep the background of the Canglong Legion is." The seventh elder thought for a while and said.
Although the four empires intervened in the disputes between the principalities during the time of chaos, they did not expand. Therefore, the four empires did not have many conflicts of interest with them. In dealing with the matter of the Canglong Legion, if the Azure Dragon Empire cooperates, it means that the Canglong Legion
The background of the Blue Dragon Army is very deep. If the Azure Dragon Empire is unwilling to cooperate, it means that the Blue Dragon Legion’s background is not deep. In this way, they can also readjust their plans.
"Okay. Let's return to Eagle City right away to make arrangements." The great elder said. He glanced at the minced meat in the pit and left with a sigh. The third elder and the seventh elder also left.
…
Shi Jue took Xiaolong for a 'walk' around Eagle City before going back. He arranged some explosives at the Eagle Kingdom's temple and some important institutions in the temple. He also arranged some means at the Eagle Kingdom's palace and some administrative agencies.
Only then returned to Ye Zimei's residence.
"Did Wu Hu and the others retreat?" Ye Zimei asked happily after seeing Shi Jue. News of a violent explosion in the western region had come back. She had been worried about Shi Jue's safety. Seeing that Shi Jue was fine, she asked the Canglong Legion
situation.
"They have retreated safely." Shi Jue nodded and said, "Fortunately we rushed over, otherwise we would have been ambushed by the Eagle Kingdom. However, this matter will also turn things around for Zhang Han. If we don't let them face it,
Beat them up and they won't change their minds. Pirates are pirates, a bunch of people without moral integrity!"
"Ziyao immediately conveyed the order, asking them to pay attention to the changes in the Eagle Kingdom and the changes on the border of the Qinglong Empire. Don't leave the Eagle Kingdom and be detained by the Qinglong Empire again." Ye Zimei said.
"The Qinglong Empire will not embarrass Wu Hu." Shi Jue said with a smile: "But we can understand the Qinglong Empire's attitude towards the Canglong Legion."
"I'm going." Lu Ziyao nodded and left.
"I'm worried to death." Seeing Lu Ziyao leaving Xiaolong and leaving knowingly, Ye Zimei glared at him and said.
"I don't want to die myself." Shi Jue smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm not going to die young."
"Okay, don't die." Ye Zimei said, "Just now, Yuan Hao sent a letter admitting his mistake. Please read it."
Shi Jue opened the letter and read it. His expression slowly began to soften.
"Don't blame him too much." Ye Zimei said: "It's not easy for him either. To lead an army, you have to constantly create new tactics, and some mistakes are inevitable."
"This kid can't do anything without scolding him. The most common mistake young people make is being frivolous. If you use blood to change his mistakes, you might as well let me scold him to wake him up." Shi Jue said.
"Shi Jue, can I lend you a shoulder to lean on?" Ye Zimei looked at him and said suddenly.
"Yes." Shi Jue nodded. Ye Zimei sat next to him and gently leaned her head on Shi Jue's chest. Shi Jue hesitated and hugged her shoulders.
Ye Zimei suddenly sobbed softly. Shi Jue's face kept changing. He knew in his heart the pressure Ye Zimei was under. No matter how strong a woman is, she still needs a man's shoulder! He can't help them, right?
Can't live...
"Sir, Sister Ye." Lu Ziyao rushed in and saw this scene and wanted to leave.
"Tell me what you have to say." Ye Zimei let go of Shi Jue and raised her head to look at Lu Ziyao and said. Her face showed the strength unique to a strong woman.
"Sir, Sister Ye. I just got the news. Uncle Han is imprisoned in the underground prison of Baixi Villa. All the important figures of the Eagle Kingdom are sent to the important cities of the Eagle Kingdom to focus on defending against our use of magic weapons to attack them.
City." Lu Ziyao said anxiously: "Wu Hu was rescued by the Qinglong Empire's army and has safely entered the Qinglong Empire."
"There should be no problem with Wu Hu's safety." Shi Jue thought for a moment and said, "They may be kept by the Qinglong Empire to live with them for a while.
Ziyao, please notify Yuan Hao immediately and ask him to transfer the equipment camp and medicine camp to the hinterland of the Southern Alliance. At the same time, ask Yuan Lang to make a request to the Southern Alliance and send more immortal beasts of the Immortal Emperor level to sit near the base. Let Yuan Hao prepare to meet the enemy.
The War in the Demon Palace."
"Yes, young master." Lu Ziyao nodded and said, quickly turning around to convey the order.
"Could this be a trap?" Ye Zimei snuggled into Shi Jue's arms again and looked at Shi Jue and asked.
"Trap?! We remain unchanged in response to all changes. For Zhang Han, I don't mind turning the entire Eagle City into a sea of fire. If you touch my people, you have to pay the price!" Shi Jue said coldly.
"But we don't rule out that they will use this to test us, or that they really want to mediate with us." Ye Zimei thought for a while and said.
"Let's figure it out. As a rule, don't let any of us take risks." Shi Jue thought for a while and said.
"Yeah." Ye Zimei nodded, then closed his eyes as if sleeping, with an expression of enjoyment on his face. Shi Jue sighed softly and closed his eyes.
…
News came one after another. Shi Jue still stood still.
The Qinglong Empire suddenly seized the Ying Kingdom's envoys and asked the Ying Kingdom to exchange Zhang Han for their envoys. It also openly took in a group of soldiers from the Canglong Legion and hired them as temporary instructors of the Imperial Legion. The Qinglong Empire and the Temple
He openly broke his skin and slapped the temple hard.
The Eagle Nation sent two missions to gain support from its allies. The four imperial armies were massing towards the border, reaching a point of tense situation. The Great Elder of the Eagle Nation personally led the delegation to negotiate, and the two sides were quarreling over the matter.
The entire Eagle City has almost become an undefended city. Only a few Immortal Kings are left to guard the city. Eagle Country has a feeling that a heavy rain will come and the wind will fill the buildings. Everyone is panicked.
"Shi Jue, this is an opportunity! With Xiaolong's help, Zhang Han can be rescued." Ye Zimei walked to Shi Jue and said.
"If it doesn't go as I expected, someone will do it for us. All we have to do is secretly coordinate." Shi Jue said with a smile.
"Why?" Ye Zimei asked.
"Don't you think this all happened too suddenly?" Shi Jue said with a smile: "Although this all feels very reasonable. But why is there no involvement of the temple? Why is the Qinglong Empire so abnormal? Why does the Eagle Kingdom want to be in Eagle City?
Leaving such a big flaw?"
"Why?..." Ye Zimei still didn't understand.
"The abnormality of the Qinglong Empire shows that the Eagle Kingdom will not set a trap to deal with us. Otherwise, the Qinglong Empire would not be so cooperative. However, the other three empires did not respond. This can only mean that the Eagle Kingdom and the Qinglong Empire have reached some kind of agreement.
There is a tacit understanding." Shi Jue smiled and said:
"They have all misjudged our strength. It is still a bit difficult for us to deal with the Immortal Emperor and several Immortal Kings. Then we have to wait for others to do it for us. If we stand still, their drama will continue."
"You mean the Qinglong Empire will help us?" Ye Zimei asked.
"Maybe." Shi Jue nodded and said confidently: "Anyway, we won't get involved in this risky matter. Even if they don't help, we will rescue Zhang Han quickly."
She didn't know where Shi Jue's self-confidence came from, and it was not convenient for Ye Zimei to ask further.
