Chapter 274.1
Why? Master Jiechen asked.
Sword Elder smiled and said, Everyone here has a grudge against Green Garment Tower! But our Great Xia has been established for too short a time and has no enmity with Green Garment Tower, so we prefer not to get involved in this turmoil!
Sword Elder, I understand your choice. Master Jiechen replied.
But its not true that you have no grudge against Green Garment Tower! o my knowledge, someone placed a bounty of 30 million taels of silver on the Green Garment Tower, targeting Great Xia!
So, their last operation might have been aimed at Great Xia! It was just very unfortunate for them that a senior discovered them and took action to eliminate the demon, saving Great Xia from danger! Otherwise, without a Grandmaster in Great Xia, you know very well what could have happened without me saying more!
Therefore, we should take this opportunity to unite and defend the righteous path!
Everyone nodded involuntarily after hearing this.
However, Sword Elder remained unmoved: As you said, if it werent for that seniors intervention, Great Xia might have faced a disaster! But thats just a possibility. His Majesty dared to lead the team away because he had already prepared countermeasures!
What countermeasures? someone asked.
That is a secret of Great Xia, not to be disclosed to outsiders! Sword Elder said with a slight smile.
Their Grandmaster may have left, but the Xuanxiao divine sword was still there.
This divine sword could actively attack and kill enemies even more fiercely than other Great Xias Grandmaster.
Moreover, it could absorb power through the Xuanxiao Child Sword.
The more power it absorbed, the closer its strength approached that of a Great Grandmaster.
However, since the sword had never been used, outsiders were unaware of its power.
So comparatively, we in Great Xia are more concerned about the person behind these 30 million taels!
Sword Elder surveyed the room and said, 30 million taels thats equivalent to the annual national treasury income of a dynasty! Even an empire would be strained to spend such an amount! I wonder who would spend such money to doom Great Xia! And theres definitely more than one person behind this. So while Green Garment Tower is evil, the people behind it are even more so!
Under Sword Elders sharp gaze, some people looked away, unable to meet his eyes.
Therefore, we in Great Xia are more interested in finding out whos behind this. As for exterminating the Green Garment Tower, Great Xia will not be involved. Please forgive us!
In the end, everyone formed the Demon-Slayer Alliance to jointly deal with the Green Garment Tower.
Although Great Xia was not involved, it seemed that having one more or one less of them didnt make much of a difference, so no one paid much attention.
Then, the Demon-Slayer Alliance exerted its strength, uncovering many strongholds of the Green Garment Tower and eliminating them.
However, it appeared that the Green Garment Tower had been well-prepared. Many valuable items and important figures had been moved away, leaving only the small fry behind.
At the same time, the Green Garment Tower began to retaliate, with the Buddhist Sects temples being destroyed one after another.
There are also other sects and factions that have suffered huge blows.
All forces were extremely furious.
But the most infuriated was the Great Luo Emperor.
Not because of the Green Garment Tower, but because
Fairy Yufei, is it really impossible to dispatch another Grandmaster?
The Great Luo Emperor pleaded earnestly, Look, that demoness has come again, harming my court officials and killing without mercy! Great Luo will be finished if the Taoist Sects elders do not take action!
After returning from overseas, Mo Yuyan, whose strength had greatly increased, invaded Great Luo again.
At this moment, the Taoist Sect was joining forces with other factions in the Demon-Slayer Alliance to deal with the Green Garment Tower, which meant that most of the experts stationed in Great Luo had been called away, leaving only one Grandmaster and a few Innates to protect the Great Luo Emperor and guard the imperial city.
With no one to check on her, Mo Yuyan once again embarked on a killing spree.
Looking at the pleading eyes of the Great Luo Emperor, Song Yufei said with regret, Your Majesty, Im sorry, but our Taoist Sect is fully committed to dealing with the Green Garment Tower and really cannot spare any more people! Once this matter is over, we will assist you with all our might!
After this matter is over The Great Luo Emperors face twisted somewhat.
When would this matter end?
He was not uneducated in history.
The history books recorded that this kind of large-scale extermination of the Green Garment Tower had happened several times before. The shortest one lasted six months, and the longest one lasted eight years.
Youre asking him to wait months, even years? By then, the country wouldnt need any medicine.
Fairy, I beg you! Great Luo is in imminent danger. You cant just stand by and watch us die! the Great Luo Emperor said as he knelt down.
Song Yufei was shocked and quickly helped him up, Your Majesty, please rise! You are the supreme ruler with a noble status. How can you kneel so easily?
The Great Luo Emperor gave a wry smile, I have no choice but to kneel because I do not wish to be a monarch of a fallen nation, nor do I wish to die!
Song Yufei helplessly said, Your Majesty, this is not something I can decide on my own. I can only promise to do my best!
The Great Luo Emperor bowed, I am grateful for your efforts, Fairy!
Song Yufei left with light steps.
Before leaving, she looked back at the Great Luo Emperor, filled with disappointment.
When she first met the Great Luo Emperor, he was full of vigor, a rare sovereign with the courage and determination to expand an empire and unify the vast lands.
Later on, he became corrupted, turning cold and ruthless, brutal and inhumane.
In order to prolong the life of his nation and expand its territory, he launched wars without regard for the lives of his people.
Now, he was willing to forsake his imperial dignity and bow his head to her to stay alive.
So pitiful and lowly, like a dog begging with its tail between its legs.
What use was such an Emperor?
Sigh! Ill help him one last time.
