Chapter 107 – Crisis Lifted
”The two of us have come here on the orders of the Grand Elder to ask the Xia Emperor for a statement.
If the Northern Barbarians were to be destroyed in this way, the Great Xia Imperial Dynasty, where would the Heavenly Sword Holy Land be placed?”
The Emperor pondered for a moment and exchanged a glance with that heavy minister from the Fifth Prince’s lineage in the hall.
Only to see that old minister give a document that was passed to the hands of the two Heavenly Sword Holy Land elders.
”Win-win cooperation is the king’s way.”
Eight simple words, but it allowed this situation, which had no détente, to darken.
Xu Yang was also not clear, what kind of cooperation conditions had been offered to the Heavenly Sword Holy Land on this instrument, just from the look of the feedback from these two elders, the Great Xia Imperial Dynasty had paid quite a price in order to get rid of the Xiong Rui Department.
”We can’t make a decision on this matter, but I can see that the Xia Emperor is still very sincere about the cooperation with the Heavenly Sword Holy Land.
If the cooperation does come to fruition, we will not provide any shelter or assistance to the Northern Barbarian Xiong Rui Ministry.
In addition, I also have an unkind request, I wonder if the Summer Emperor can agree to it.”
”Oh?
But there’s no harm in saying it.”
The white-clothed old man smiled and looked at the Fifth and Eighth Emperors.
”The two emperors are so young that they have the cultivation base of the Cave Heaven realm, and they are also exceptionally talented in the Dao of the Sword, so if one of the emperors can be chosen to enter my Heavenly Sword Holy Land for training, then it would be a crucial catalyst to facilitate the conclusion of the cooperation between the two sides.”
Xu Yang had clearly anticipated that these people would have such an attitude, and only smiled lightly as he sipped his own tea.
Xia Huang heard naturally would not hold any opposition, in his heart he really did not want to offend the Heavenly Sword Holy Land, not to mention that it had come to such a juncture, as long as the payment of an imperial son as a bargaining chip, the matter of cooperation when it was the nail in the coffin.
”Old five old eight, you two have any ideas?
I would like to hear what you guys have to say.
Heavenly Sword Holy Land’s heritage and status needs no introduction, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, once you miss it, in the end your whole life, you won’t have such an opportunity again.”
The white-clothed old man smiled and stroked his beard, “I have cultivated the sword path for a thousand years, and I have never accepted a closed disciple, if any of you agrees to join the Heavenly Sword Holy Land, without having to pass any examination, I will directly take in under my door, and teach you everything.”
Knowing that such a temptation would be unthinkable for an ordinary person, the Fifth Prince and the Eighth Prince were also clear that being able to obtain such an opportunity was 80% very much related to the Sword Intent that Xu Yang had imparted to him.
It was just that in this way, the prince who had been chosen to become the heir to the Heavenly Sword Holy Land would be tantamount to giving up the qualifications for the succession to the throne.
Whether to claim the throne in the mortal world, or to enter the cultivation world to enjoy the topmost creation, two paths, two very different directions, for a time it also put the two imperial sons in a dilemma.
”Enlighten Father, this opportunity is since rare, but Fifth Brother’s Sword Dao talent is obviously stronger than mine, I feel that this opportunity to glorify my Great Xia Dynasty, Fifth Brother is more suitable.”
The Fifth Prince wanted to open his mouth to retort, but he realized that his path had been blocked.
If he disobeyed his father at this time and refused such an opportunity, once the Heavenly Sword Holy Land added to the anger of the imperial dynasty, or even tore up the possibility of cooperation because of it, then a disaster would befall the Great Xia Imperial Dynasty, and he himself would become a sinner for the ages, not to mention inheriting the throne.
”Father, child is willing to enter the Heavenly Sword Holy Land with the two elders!”
The fifth prince finally chose to compromise.
The Empress on the temple was as if her heart was ashen, and she was undoubtedly the most desperate one.
She had gone to great lengths for the Fifth Prince to inherit the great throne, and her ten years of operation had now all been ruined with the intervention of the Heavenly Sword Holy Land.
Going to the Holy Land was certainly a great opportunity, but it was also accompanied by great risk and uncertainty, in case the Fifth Prince really had some kind of flashback accident in the future, the Empress was isolated within the palace, and the future was really unimaginable.
”Hahaha, good disciple, still not quick to come over to salute the master!”
The third elder took a bargain and opened his mouth in advance, the fifth prince bowed in front of the hall to perform the great salute of the teacher, thus officially becoming a member of the Heavenly Sword Holy Land.
”That’s right, this matter is over, the two of us will part ways here!
I was a bit abrupt when I came, so I’m here to make amends to the Xia Emperor!”
The old man said, and suddenly waved his hand, the two broken portals outside the temple door, under this incomparably strong sword qi, were able to close up again, and the harmonious atmosphere inside the temple was restored as before.
Whoosh!
The three of them transformed into a sword light and vanished into the air.
Before leaving, the fifth prince left a soul thought for Xu Yang, requesting Xu Yang to shelter his mother.
For the fifth prince of this destiny trajectory, Xu Yang has long given a mention, can only say that this kid was born without emperor life, this go to the Heavenly Sword Holy Land is unpredictable, Xu Yang sighed softly, his heart has also been thinking.
Originally was brought by these two old men of the hundred people sword group, also followed the two old men and left, and did not really on the great summer dynasty, this crisis is also counted as the end of the end.
After they so a toss, the atmosphere of the banquet has long been dissipated, the summer emperor will be above the courtroom of the crowd of civil and military and dispatched, leaving only Xu Yang one, the large palace, this time also only left the summer emperor and Xu Yang only.
”I now realize that the old five invited you to the intention.
If I expected correctly, the sword intent that Your Excellency imparted to my two imperial sons is the fundamental reason for pacifying the Heavenly Sword Holy Land.”
Xu Yang lightly laughed and got up, “I am not as divine as Your Majesty imagines, nor do I have any intention of getting involved in all of this, but I am just going along for the ride.
Going to the Heavenly Sword Alliance is a destiny chosen by the Fifth Prince himself, and there is no way for an onlooker to change it.”
The emperor sighed softly, “The Heavenly Sword Holy Land, is not something that our Great Xia Dynasty can mess with, now this, I’m afraid that this is already the best ending, just ……” Xu Yang raised his head, “Is Your Majesty worried about the matter of the candidate for the Crown Prince? ”
”Indeed.
The most outstanding of my royal children are the oldest three, the oldest five and the oldest eight.
The oldest three has outstanding military achievements and the strongest ability, but he can’t help but be criticized for his origins, and this really can’t be blamed on him.
The old eight is my favorite son, but also some of the ingredients of love, in his body, I can always see their own shadow of the year.
Just to his nature, inheritance of the dynasty or some lack of fire.
In contrast, the old fifth moderate, is not the most excellent, but on the contrary is the most suitable one, but now ……” Xu Yang saw the emperor’s suffering, smiled and said: “Your Majesty is in the prime of life, and is the first strongest person of the Great Summer, why are you always in a hurry to think about this matter?
In fact, there are some things that plans can never withstand changes, so it’s better to let nature take its course.”
The Emperor looked deeply at Xu Yang.
”That’s fine, I know that people outside the party such as Your Excellency are not interested in matters in the imperial court.
In short, as long as I am still in charge of the Great Xia Imperial Dynasty, the Heavenly Lan Sect will definitely continue its fragrance and inheritance forever.”
Xu Yang reached his wish, bowed and cupped his fists at the Emperor, and left the grand hall on that note.
