Chapter 221 Soaring Strength, Qin Emperor’s Reward (1)
“Yang Hong? You said you’re Yang Hong?” Yin Wuyou looked at the man in front of him, whose face was bruised and swollen and whose original appearance was barely recognizable. Her gaze then fell on the Mo Mei Sword in his hand.
Finally, she couldn’t hold back her laughter.
“How did you become like this?”
When the others arrived, Yin Wuyou was already laughing so hard that she couldn’t speak.
Yang Hong had an aggrieved look on his face. Combined with his appearance, the scene appeared unusually comical.
“It’s all in order to complete the mission the marquis ordered.” Yang Hong felt wronged.
“Thank you for your hard work.” Zhou Shu patted Yang Hong’s shoulder and smiled. “You’ve made a great contribution by capturing Shen Yue alive this time.”
“I’m like this now because of him!” Yang Hong kicked Shen Yue, who was already under the control of Great Xia’s diplomatic mission’s guards. Shen Yue glared at him angrily, and Yang Hong also glared at him rudely. Holding the Mo Mei Sword, he had gone to the diplomatic missions of the various nations to exchange pointers. The diplomatic missions of other nations didn’t care about him.
Shen Yue doesn’t care about martial virtue. Just because his cultivation is higher than mine, he smacked my face so much!
What happened in the end? Didn’t my sword still defeat him? Yang Hong thought smugly.
He had noticed that the soldiers from Great Qin were trying to capture the members of Great Wei’s diplomatic mission, so he had secretly followed Shen Yue and taken the opportunity to strike. He didn’t expect he would really succeed.
Yang Hong had stabbed Shen Yue. His injuries were not minor, but they were not life-threatening
He glanced coldly at Zhou Shu, closed his eyes, and said no more.
“Will you kill him or not?” Yin Wuyou asked Zhou Shu.
“Leave it to Great Qin.” Zhou Shu said. “He’s the cause of everything that happened today. I reckon that the Qin emperor wants to cut him into pieces. We are guests, so it’s not convenient for us to meddle in this.”
“Marquis Zhou, you are indeed a particular person.” A voice sounded, and Xu Shi walked over from the corner of the street.
His body rippled with a bloody aura that was invisible to the naked eye. Who knew how many demonic beasts he had killed.
Xu Shi’s expression was very calm. It was impossible to tell that he had just experienced a huge battle.
“Marquis Zhou, leave Shen Yue to me.” Xu Shi cupped his hands toward Zhou Shu. “Many thanks for your help this time, Marquis. My Great Qin will definitely reward you greatly.”
“Lord Xu, you are too polite.” Zhou Shu signaled Chen Ji to hand Shen Yue over to Xu Shi and cupped his hands.
Xu Shi reached out to take Shen Yue from Chen Ji’s hands.
Shen Yue suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Xu Shi coldly. “There’s indeed a problem with Great Qin!”
Just as he spoke, Xu Shi’s hand on Shen Yue’s shoulder already emitted a faint light, and then Shen Yue couldn’t make another sound.
Zhou Shu’s heart stirred.
If he didn’t know anything, he wouldn’t think too much when he heard Shen Yue’s words.
But he knew bits of information.
Shen Yue’s words made him instantly think of Great Qin’s imperial cauldron!
Previously, when he had entered the Wang Xin dream, Zhou Shu had already learned some information about the imperial cauldron.
The Great Qin had set up the nine checkpoints to test the diplomatic mission of the various nations precisely so that they could think of a way to repair their imperial cauldron.
But for some reason, they seemed to have given up.
From the looks of it now, Great Wei seemed to know that something was wrong with Great Qin’s imperial cauldron. Previously, Shen Yue had used the excuse of challenging him to create a mirror in public just to test this?
For the sake of probing if something is wrong with Great Qin’s imperial cauldron, Great Wei formed a diplomatic mission? What is Great Wei after?
Aren’t they afraid of Great Qin taking revenge on them?
Zhou Shu didn’t know what use the imperial cauldron had, but he knew that the power of Great Qin was definitely above that of Great Wei.
Is Great Wei courting death?
“Lord Xu, is there anything we can help you with?” Zhou Shu asked.
“No need.” Xu Shi shook his head. “The situation in the city is under control. The demonic beasts will be wiped out soon.
“You can return to the post house to rest for a while. His Majesty will summon you soon.”
After Xu Shi finished speaking, he carried Shen Yue and disappeared into the streets in a few steps.
Zhou Shu looked around and could no longer see any demonic beasts. He knew that this opportunity to gain experience had come to an end.
“Let’s go back.”
Back at the post house, Chen Ji and the guards went to do their own things.
Zhou Shu suddenly called out to Yin Wuyou and asked softly, “Grand Minister, have you heard of the imperial cauldrons?”
“Imperial cauldrons? Are they uncommon weapons? I’ve never heard of them,” Yin Wuyou said doubtfully. Zhou Shu frowned. Even Yin Wuyou doesn’t know of the existence of the imperial cauldrons?
This is interesting.
Zhou Shu didn’t suspect Yin Wuyou was lying. Since she said she didn’t know, then she definitely didn’t know.
These imperial cauldrons are really a little mysterious. If not for the problem with Great Qin’s imperial cauldron, Wang Xin probably wouldn’t have heard about it either.
“I guess so,” Zhou Shu said casually.
After returning to his room, Zhou Shu no longer thought about the imperial cauldrons. Who cares what they are? It has nothing to do with me.
Taking stock of his harvest loot was the most important thing. With a thought, the Legendary Armament Canon appeared in front of him. The pages rustled as the contents of the book flashed past his eyes.
A moment later, Zhou Shu couldn’t help letting out a peal of laughter resembling a male duck’s. Yin Wuyou and Lu Wenshuang, who were outside, were confused.
Great Wei is such a good nation, Zhou Shu praised. They sacrificed their diplomatic mission and summoned so many demonic beasts to help me gain experience. This kind of spirit is worthy of praise.
