Chapter 1346 Testing Each Other, Opportunities for Cooperation (3)
"So, isn"t it good for our Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom to watch the show? Why do we have to do it personally? Are we crazy to do something without benefits?" Lin Kelei said with a mocking expression. "How is it not beneficial?"
Zhou Shu shook his head. "As far as I know, the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom is rich in resources and has countless heavenly treasures. If you can occupy the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom, won"t it be beneficial to the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom?"
"Brother Zhou, your eloquence in persuading people is really average." Lin Kelei sneered. "You"re a forger. You should just forge obediently. Why are you negotiating? This isn"t your expertise.
"Didn"t you just say it? If the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom cooperates with the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom to attack the ancestral land, we can only obtain a fragmented world. Conversely, how can our Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom cooperate with the ancestral land to attack the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom? In the end, won"t the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom still be shattered?"
"It"s different." Zhou Shu shook his head calmly. "The Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom doesn"t have the determination and strength to perish together.
"But we do."
Zhou Shu"s eyes flickered as he said coldly, "If the human race will definitely lose, before the human race dies, this ancestral land will be completely destroyed. We have the strength and determination!"
Lin Kelei was stunned for a moment. "You want to drag the ancestral land down with you when you die?"
Zhou Shu put his hands behind his back and clasped his hands behind his back. "Brother Lin, when you came over, you saw the light screen in the sky, right? The Ten Imperial Cauldrons are connected to the lifeline of the ancestral land. As long as they exist, the ancestral land will exist. If they"re gone, the ancestral land will no longer exist."
A solemn look flashed across Lin Kelei"s eyes, but he still shook his head and said, "This kind of fighting method may scare the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom, but I still say the same thing. What does this have to do with our Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom?
"We"ll just sit back and watch the show. We don"t care if the ancestral land or the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom dies.
"Even so, it"s simple for us to want some benefits. Wouldn"t it be better if we take action when both of you suffer internecine outcomes?
"Of course, we"re not interested in that either. Our Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom is vast, and the heavenly treasures are enough to support our people. There"s no need for us to fight to the death for some external objects."
Lin Kelei spoke very firmly, and his tone was calm.
We"re already rich. Why take the risk?
This was what Lin Kelei meant.
Zhou Shu wasn"t discouraged. He shook his head. "If Gou Mang is as outstanding as you say, then may I ask why you"re here? If you really didn"t want anything, you shouldn"t be here.
"Besides, there are clearly many ways for you to come to the ancestral land, but you chose the most crude one. For this, you didn"t hesitate to cause a scene in the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom. Brother Lin, if you"re really a person who doesn"t have any desires, you probably won"t do such a thing."
"So what?" Lin Kelei looked indifferent. "I"m someone who likes to join in the fun. I don"t like the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom either. So what? Do you think I"d drag our Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom into the war just for this?
"Brother Zhou, I"m not that willful!"
"Brother Lin, I don"t know if you"re willful or not, but I know that if you just wanted to watch from the sidelines, you wouldn"t have said so much to me."
The corners of Zhou Shu"s mouth curled up slightly. "If I were you, in a situation where I really just wanted to watch the show, I wouldn"t have come to the ancestral land from the beginning, let alone talk so much nonsense with a crazy person facing death.
"So, Brother Lin, perhaps you can tell me what you want first. Perhaps our ancestral land can help you fulfill your wish."
"Haha." Lin Kelei laughed again. "Brother Zhou, let me put it this way. In the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom, I, Lin Kelei, am second only to one person and above countless others. What else do you think I can"t get? What can you give me?
"And you think I wanted to come?"
"Exactly!" Zhou Shu snapped his fingers. "That"s the key. You didn"t want to come, but you came. Then, do you know what this means?"
"What does it mean?" Lin Kelei frowned.
"It means that your Green Emperor is someone who can"t stand being alone," Zhou Shu said.
A cold glint flashed across Lin Kelei"s eyes. Ever since he came to the ancestral land, he had been smiling and talking to Zhou Shu. Even though he knew that Zhou Shu wasn"t from the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom, he kept calling him Brother Zhou.
But now, he suddenly exuded a cold killing intent. "The Green Emperor is not someone you can comment on at will! If you dare to say such things again, then there"s no need for us to talk!"
Zhou Shu"s expression didn"t change as he looked at Lin Kelei and said coldly, "That"s right. Our ancestral land wants to cooperate with the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom, but we"re definitely not begging the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom to cooperate.
"Brother Lin, if you really don"t have that intention, you can leave now. But I"m afraid you won"t be able to explain yourself when you return."
Zhou Shu pointed at the sky with a calm expression.
Lin Kelei"s eyes narrowed slightly. He wasn"t lying. He did think that there was no need for the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom to cooperate with the ancestral land, but Zhou Shu was right.
The Green Emperor couldn"t have sent him here just to take a stroll.
Before coming here, the Green Emperor had given him the right to make decisions on the spot!
Just as Zhou Shu said, if he returned like this, how would he explain it to the Green Emperor?
Could he tell the Green Emperor that he, Lin Kelei, only took a tour of the ancestral land?
Your Majesty, oh Your Majesty, why couldn"t you make yourself clear? Your thoughts are too difficult to guess! Lin Kelei smiled bitterly in his heart. He really didn"t know what the Green Emperor meant. This was all a guess. He didn"t dare to make a decision or go back casually. This feeling is too aggrieving!
"Brother Zhou, it"s really meaningless to probe like this." Lin Kelei suddenly squeezed out a smile. "Let"s put it this way. It"s not impossible for the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom to cooperate with you, as long as you agree to one condition."
