Chapter 1311 Blocking the Enemy in the Sky (1)
With two people taking the lead, the remaining emperors all expressed their stance.
Under such circ.u.mstances, no one dared to object.
They should be glad that Zhou Shu was willing to reason with them.
If Zhou Shu was unreasonable, they wouldn"t even have a place to cry.
Now, they were only forming the Ten Nations Alliance Army. Although it couldn"t be said that it wouldn"t affect the Ten Nations at all, at least on the surface, the army still belonged to the Ten Nations and was only united for one purpose. The Ten Nations were still the Ten Nations.
This was already countless times better than the worst outcome they had imagined.
To put it bluntly, strength determined everything.
With Zhou Shu"s current strength, if he really wanted to annex any nation, no nation would be able to withstand it.
No one was Zhou Shu"s match.
This was the power brought about by absolute strength. Even if Zhou Shu didn"t deliberately pursue power, when his strength reached a certain level, he naturally had supreme power.
Now, in the ancestral land, no one would object, nor would anyone dare to object to what he said.
Zhou Shu turned to Mi Ziwen. "Since no one has any objections, Big Brother, I"ll leave the Ten Nations Alliance Army to you."
Mi Ziwen said solemnly, "I will definitely train an army that is not weaker than the Golden Dragon Guards!"
Zhou Shu smiled. That"s not so easy to do.
The Golden Dragon Guards of the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom were the strength that the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom had acc.u.mulated over countless years.
The foundation of the human race was still too weak.
But Zhou Shu didn"t dampen Mi Ziwen"s enthusiasm. "Big Brother, you can set up a system. All soldiers who reach a certain level in their cultivation can come to the Huaxia Pavilion to obtain a weapon that matches their cultivation. As long as their cultivation breaks through to the Earth Immortal realm, they can obtain a connate divine weapon!"
"King Zhou, the price of these connate divine weapons…" an emperor couldn"t help asking.
They had just agreed that the armaments of the soldiers of the various nations would be handled by the various nations. The Huaxia Pavilion would provide weapons, but they would have to pay for them.
It would have been fine if it was just ordinary weapons.
But connate divine weapons were priceless. If they were asked to pay, they would feel the pinch.
Zhou Shu felt a little helpless. There was a limit to the scale of these emperors.
But he couldn"t blame them all.
Since the reconstruction of the various nations more than a hundred years ago, their national strength had yet to recover. In other words, they were poor.
It was normal for poverty to stunt ambition.
"Our Huaxia Pavilion will be in charge of the connate divine weapons for soldiers above the Earth Immortal realm. There"s no need for your nations to pay," Zhou Shu said.
As soon as he said this, the emperors heaved a sigh of relief.
While Zhou Shu was helpless, he also felt a little sad.
As the rulers of a country, they actually behaved in this manner for a few connate divine weapons. He really didn"t know what to say about them.
At the end of the day, the human race was still too backward.
If the human race was rich and everyone could have connate divine weapons, they wouldn"t have to do this.
"Your Highness, what about us demonic beasts?" Hu Li asked loudly.
"The demonic beasts who join the alliance army receive the same treatment as humans," Zhou Shu said calmly.
"Everyone, although the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom is a crisis for us, it"s also an opportunity. If we can defeat the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom, we will obtain a va.s.sal world.
"Although the environment of the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom is a little special, the heavenly treasures of the Xuan Ming Heaven are innumerable…"
Zhou Shu began to paint a picture, but he wasn"t lying. The Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom indeed had countless heavenly treasures.
If they could really occupy the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom, the human race would definitely be able to develop extremely quickly.
War was always the fastest way to develop.
…
"Zhou Shu, let me ask you a question. Please answer me honestly. Are you prepared to establish a nation?"
The emperors of the various nations left one after another. Great Xia"s Emperor Yuan Feng was the last to leave.
When he left, Zhou Shu personally sent him to the entrance of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven.
"Father-in-law, why do you ask?" Zhou Shu asked back.
"I think the scale of your construction is more like an imperial city than a grotto-heaven." Emperor Yuan Feng pointed at the buildings outside the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven. "You can tell me the truth. If you really plan to establish a nation, I have no problem handing Great Xia over to you."
Emperor Yuan Feng had a sincere expression. If Zhou Shu really wanted to be an emperor, he sincerely wanted to give up his position to Zhou Shu.
He knew very well that if the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom attacked, it would be a calamity for the Ten Nations.
If he gave up his position to Zhou Shu, with Zhou Shu"s personality, he would definitely let Great Xia continue to exist. Moreover, when Zhou Shu and his daughter had a child in the future, wouldn"t the throne of Great Xia be pa.s.sed to their child, who had his bloodline?
"Father-in-Law, you"re thinking too much." Zhou Shu shook his head. "I"m not interested in establishing a nation.
"Besides, Father-in-law, do you think I look like an emperor?
"What I"m building is more like a heavenly palace than an imperial city."
Zhou Shu said meaningfully, "Or you can call it the Heavenly Court!"
"The Heavenly Court?"
Perhaps it was an illusion, but Emperor Yuan Feng seemed to hear a low thunderclap in the sky. He felt his entire mind tremble, as if these two words carried a special magical power.
Zhou Shu looked at the sky. "That"s right, the Heavenly Court."
