Tribulation of Myriad Races

Great Han King said, "You're asking for too many of them."

"Fine. I'll take 80,000 of them. That's fine, right?"

"30,000." Great Han King couldn't be bothered to keep haggling. He said, "Take 30,000 of them with you but you'll be in charge of feeding and supporting them."

"No problem." Zhu Tiandao smiled happily.

A Sunmoon objected, "Great Han King, this is improper. If we allow this, the other prefectures will do the same..."

Great Han King said, "It's fine. Any prefecture can come and ask for 30,000 soldiers after killing nine Sunmoons."

Administrator Hu probed, "Great Han King, Longwu killed five Sunmoons previously before killing another four. Can we get 30,000 soldiers as well?"

"..."

Silence.

Even Great Han King blanked out. Did that happen?

Administrator Hu said, "I'm telling the truth. Everyone knows this. Most of the Sunmoons are at the seventh and eighth stages."

Great Han King remained silent.

When Silk Destroying King burst out with laughter, Great Han King finally spoke, "That is a matter for the War Shrine. It has nothing to do with us. Talk to the War Shrine."

He was nearly confused by these people. But at the end of the day, wasn't Great Xia under War Shrine's jurisdiction? Why were they asking for reinforcement from him? Silk Destroying King's face stiffened. Right. Great Xia was under their jurisdiction.

Administrator Hu turned to look at the War Shrine. Since Great Han King had done something for Great Ming, what about the War Shrine?

Silk Destroying King smiled and indifferently said, "True. If Great Xia is capable of supporting them, you can even get 50,000 soldiers from us. In fact, if Great Qin is interested, they can get 50,000 soldiers as well."

Administrator Hu shivered.

Holy shit!

He had nearly forgotten about that. Could they even afford to support 50,000 Skysoars? That would cost them countless resources each month. Great Ming could afford them because the expenses of Great Ming had never been that high. But it was entirely different for the warlike Great Xia.

Each Skysoar could use a drop of source qi liquid every three days. And these Skysoars would be doing nothing but cultivating once stationed in Great Xia. Even if they could get source qi liquid at the cheapest price of a merit point per drop, they would still need 500,000 merit points monthly to support that many Skysoars.

And that was only what they needed for cultivation. And in the event of a military campaign, they would spend even more. They would probably end up spending millions of merit points per month.

Administrator Hu's face changed. He was wrong. He should have kept his mouth shut. Should he accept this offer or not? If he agreed, would Marquis Xia cut him down in anger?

Great Xia wasn't actually in lack of experts. He had merely mentioned the matter after seeing Zhu Tiandao getting his request granted. But now...he was starting to regret it.

Zhu Tiandao was also looking at him curiously. Could Great Xia afford it? Why was Great Xia asking for this as well? What nonsense! Great Ming was weak but rich. Meanwhile, it was the other way around for Great Xia.

Zhu Tiandao decided that Administrator Hu wasn't even worth entertaining.

Thus, he moved on with his requests, "Sure. I can accept that. I won't be asking for too much. As long as you guys can eliminate the cult and protect Great Ming, I have nothing else to ask for. And finally, we need to talk about the crux of the matter. Is that Invincible a human? Who is that Invincible?"

With a mocking tone, Zhu Tiandao said, "Whether you can't, are unwilling, or aren't allowed to kill that Invincible, I don't care. More importantly, I need an answer from the two holy lands. Is that Invincible going to continue attacking? That is an Invincible. Why is someone like that spending all their time attacking their own people day in and day out? Is that fun? If this continues, my dad might decide to do the same as well. What can you do about it without proof? Right, Great Xia King can start doing the same as well. It's not like you guys will do anything without solid proof, right? Since you guys want to play this game, so be it!"

Zhu Tiandao beamed at the family head and said, "I'm not asking for much. I can accept that you can't kill this Invincible. But what are you going to do if more attacks happen? Silk Destroying King, Great Han King, both of you are the Invincibles currently in charge of holding the fort here in the Human Realm. I want to know your opinion on this."

This was the crux of the matter. An unknown Invincible was constantly attacking their own people. Who wouldn't be worried about this?

Silence descended.

Nobody said anything.

After a long while, someone finally spoke, "Are you sure the enemy is an Invincible?"

Zhu Tiandao lazily replied, "Nope. But we did destroy seven of their Sunmoon clones. Perhaps that's a Sunmoon at Ye Batian's level. But people with that level of talent are rarer than Invincibles. We can probably find out who that person is through a simple investigation."

Silence descended yet again.

Great Han King started rapping on his armrest. After a while, he said, "Multiple attacks. This person has indeed gone mad. Regardless of whether this is a peak Sunmoon or an Eternal, this person is a tumor of humanity. I will talk to Great Qin King, Great Zhou King, Great Xia King, and Great Ming King. If another attack happens, we will thoroughly investigate all human Eternals. Anyone trying to stop us will take responsibility for the attacks."

After a short pause, he asked, "Is this acceptable to you?"

Zhu Tiandao smiled, "Great Han King is indeed fair. But I'm afraid that things will get more complicated when the time comes. Whatever. Since Great Han King has spoken, what else can I say? If that person attacks again, I guess we can all start going wild. Since you guys are trying to make my life difficult, the Zhu Family will migrate to a small realm and have my old man protect only that realm. We will enjoy our live as the local tyrant. As for the Human Realm, you guys can have fun with it."

Great Han King said, "If Great Ming King hears this, he will—"

Before Great Han King could finish, Zhu Tiandao sighed and said, "Those were his words. I have no choice. He said these words out of worry before leaving. And what can I do? An Invincible has indeed attacked us. I'm not Xia Longwu. He's trying to affirm his dao. I'm not."

With a nonchalant tone, Zhu Tiandao said, "If I wish to affirm my dao, I'll simply find a minor realm and do it there. At worst, I'll stay in that realm for the rest of my life. Isn't the life as a local tyrant great? With my old man's strength, if he stays on the defensive in the realm, you will need around ten Invincibles to defeat him. And even in the event of defeat, he will still be able to drag an Invincible or two down with him. He won't be worthy of his fame if he can't even do that much."

Great Han King said, "Stop babbling nonsense."

Silk Destroying King rolled his eyes and said, "Just stop. Zhu Tiandao, if you keep talking nonsense, we'll really need to teach you a lesson."

Zhu Tiandao grinned and said, "I was joking. Don't take me so seriously. But that is all I have to say. If the Invincible attacks again, I will stop joking around. At that time, Great Ming will start playing the same game as well. I hope all of you will still find the game as enjoyable."

Silence descended.

Zhu Tiandao alone was smiling happily. Nobody else could smile.
