Chapter 1204 Mountain Of Materials, Change Of Sovereignty In Great Liang (2)



"How is the supply of divine weapons over at Yao Buqi's?" Zhou Shu asked while controlling the fire dragon in his hand.

"There's nothing out of the ordinary. I just sent ten connate divine weapons over a few days ago. Yao Buqi has already subdued two Demon Emperors, and they now occupy a third of the Demon Realm," Shi Songtao replied.

"But the remaining Demon Emperors seem to have joined forces. Yao Buqi and the others' expansion have slowed down."

Even so, occupying a third of the Demon Realm was already very impressive.

In addition to this one-third of the Demon Realm, His Highness can already directly influence half of the entire world.

Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven, Bao Guang Grotto-Heaven, Great Wei, Great Xia, one-third of the Demon Realm...

No, the Ji Xuan Grotto-Heaven Master and the other Grotto-Heaven Masters are still living in the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven. If His Highness instructs them to do anything, they probably won't dare to disobey his orders.

At least half of the world is already under His Highness's rule!

Zhou Shu is the master of the Huaxia Pavilion, and I, Shi Songtao, am the deputy pavilion master of the Huaxia Pavilion. Can I also influence half of the world?

Shi Songtao thought excitedly.

"Tell him that there's no need to worry about unifying the Demon Realm. Try not to kill too many demonic beasts and focus on uniting them peacefully," Zhou Shu said.

"If there's nothing else, go ahead and do your work. Tell me when Ji Lutian returns."

Ji Lutian had gone to look for Wang Xuanyi and Shi Changsheng. Zhou Shu still had to consider how to maximize the use of the battlefield opened by Cang Hao.

Ji Lutian didn't know what Cang Hao was planning, but Zhou Shu knew very well.

Cang Hao knew about the existence of the Legendary Armament Canon. There was a high chance that he had opened that battlefield because of the Legendary Armament Canon.

Killing enemies from beyond the heavens could also bring rewards from the Legendary Armament Canon. Cang Hao had established such a battlefield to provide his main body with a place to harvest leeks.

When the demonic beasts of the Demon Realm were no longer absolute enemies, enemies from beyond the heavens were the most suitable targets.

They were absolute enemies of humans and even demonic beasts.

But even Ji Lutian didn't know much about that battlefield. He had gone this time to investigate the specific situation there so as to formulate a plan for the next step.

At the same time, they had to be on guard against Cao Chenyang coming out to cause trouble.

Although Cao Chenyang had yet to recover his strength from ten thousand years ago, his current strength was not inferior to that of an ordinary Grotto-Heaven Master. Coupled with his strange ability to devour martial artists, if he wanted to ambush anyone, apart from Zhou Shu, no one in the world would dare to say that they would definitely be able to escape.

The Ji Xuan Grotto-Heaven Master and the other Grotto-Heaven Masters even had to hide in the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven.

...

Thousands of kilometers away from the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven, in the territory of Great Liang...

More than a hundred years ago, the human race had driven the demonic beasts back to the Demon Realm. The Ten Nations had walked out of the Grotto-Heavens and established their nations again with the support of the Grotto-Heavens.

From then on, apart from Great Wei, the various nations had actually become vassals of the Grotto-Heavens.

This relationship lasted until Zhou Shu returned and forcefully killed Tang Lan, the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven Master, and Shang Qiuzi, the Bao Guang Grotto-Heaven Master.

Now, the Grotto-Heavens had no time to care about these nations.

Of course, even if they wanted to, they might not be able to, especially regarding Great Liang.

In the hall of Great Liang's imperial palace, Cao Chenyang was sitting on the dragon throne. He had already swallowed the Great Liang emperor.

Below, the civil and military officials of Great Liang were silent.

The person on the dragon throne had suddenly descended from the sky and swallowed the emperor in one gulp. He would also swallow anyone who dared to object in one gulp.

After a while, no one in the imperial court dared to stand out and object.

Cao Chenyang glanced at the civil and military officials and said coldly, "I, Cao Chenyang, was already a king of Great Liang more than a hundred years ago. Now that the Liang emperor has disgraced his ancestors, I have decided to be the emperor myself."

"Long live Your Majesty!" the civil and military officials in the Imperial Court shouted.

"Long live? Are you cursing me to have a short life?" Cao Chenyang snorted coldly. He raised his hand, grabbed a minister, and casually threw him into his mouth.

With a crack, the minister disappeared.

Cao Chenyang smiled sinisterly. "If you listen to me obediently, I will let you enjoy endless wealth. If you dare to be disobedient, he will be your example!

"Listen up, all of you."

Cao Chenyang said coldly, "Great Liang, prepare for war. I want to unify this world!"

The civil and military officials of Great Liang looked at each other. Unify the world? Did we hear wrongly, or are you crazy?

With the strength of Great Liang, you want to unify the world?

Great Liang is the weakest nation among the Ten Nations.

It's already good enough that others don't attack us. Why should we attack others?

Isn't that courting death?

Cao Chenyang's cold gaze swept across the civil and military officials.

All the civil and military officials shuddered. They recalled that the person on the dragon throne was an existence that would eat people at the drop of a hat.

No one dared to object.

"As your command, Your Majesty." The civil and military officials of Great Liang spoke one after another.

A Great Liang official mustered his courage and asked, "Your Majesty, which nation will we attack first?"

"Let's deal with Great Chu in the west first."

Cao Chenyang said coldly, "Since you've asked, you will plan this battle. From now on, you will be the prime minister of Great Liang!"

The official who asked the question opened his mouth, not knowing whether to be happy or cry.

He was promoted, and it wasn't just by one or two ranks. He directly became the leader of Great Liang's court officials!

But now, this promotion seemed so ironic. He had to plan an attack on Great Chu.

Great Chu's national strength was at the bottom of the Ten Nations like Great Liang.

But Great Chu was still stronger than Great Liang.

How were they going to fight?

"In six months, we will attack Great Chu and then Great Qi. Within ten years, I want to vanquish all the nations except Great Wei!" Cao Chenyang said coldly.

The Great Liang minister, who had just been promoted, almost cried. How is that possible?

He looked at the other ministers for help.

But the other Great Liang ministers lowered their heads.

They were not envious of this minister's promotion at all.

How was this a promotion? This was clearly tempting fate.

With Great Liang's strength, wasn't it a joke to attack Great Chu in six months?

Once the war started, it was uncertain if Great Liang could last six months.

Moreover, would other nations just watch Great Liang mobilize their troops?

They would suffer if any nation interfered.

"Hmph, a bunch of frogs at the bottom of a well." Cao Chenyang glanced coldly at the ministers. "Since I said so, it naturally means that Great Liang can do it. I will make the soldiers of Great Liang stronger. I will make them invincible!"

Cao Chenyang looked in the direction of Great Wei and Great Xia. If not for the fact that he didn't want to meet Zhou Shu now, he would have attacked Great Wei and Great Xia.

But it didn't matter now. He would slowly nibble away at the human nations. When only Great Wei and Great Xia were left, it wouldn't be too late to deal with them slowly.

At that time, his strength should have mostly recovered, and he wouldn't have to be afraid of Zhou Shu anymore.

"I don't want any outsiders to know what happened today. Otherwise, you can all go and accompany the Great Liang emperor. The outside world doesn't need to know that Great Liang had changed rulers. Do you understand?" Cao Chenyang's voice was filled with killing intent.

The civil and military officials of Great Liang were stunned and hurriedly said loudly, "Yes, Your Majesty. We will obey your decree!"

"Very good. Now, I will give you strength!"

Cao Chenyang opened his arms, and fist-sized white balls of light flew out from his body. These balls of light instantly entered the bodies of Great Liang's civil and military officials, and their auras increased at a visible speed.
