585 Do You Know Me?

King Baitan asked.

Minister Guo shook his head again.

“I left some people in Tata Village. According to the latest information I received, it’s likely that it wasn’t the people from the Shang Empire who went to look for the Holy Infant, but the Holy Infant who went to look for Shang Empire.”

“Oh? Why would you say that?”

Everyone present thought it was impossible to understand.

Shang Empire was seeking help from the Holy Infant, so why did the Holy Infant visit first?

“The security around the tower is extremely tight, and my men can only move around in the outer area. However, a few days ago, I suddenly received the news. It’s said that many of the guards and reserve forces of Tata Village were suddenly transferred out in large numbers.”

“The last time Tata Village dispatched troops, it was when the Queen of Country Xu announced that the Holy Infant was the only God of Country Xu.”

“Therefore, I boldly surmised that this time, the Tata Village’s troops went out in large numbers to set up defensive measures in various places in the Shang Empire.”

“As for why it was the Holy Infant Temple Master who reached out to the Shang Empire, it might be related to the development of his subordinates.”

Minister Guo explained unhurriedly.

“Even though the Holy Infant is extremely powerful, no matter how strong he is, he can’t possibly create things out of thin air. The development of his troops has already surpassed the knowledge of everyone in the world, and the resources he will need will not be small.”

“The reason he came out to solve the crisis for the Country Xu must be to obtain resources. Similarly, this trip to the Shang Empire must be due to the lack of resources.”

Hearing Minister Guo’s words, everyone present couldn’t help but nod.

In their eyes, an existence like the Holy Infant Temple Master had already transcended the world.

Even the ordinary Immortal Realm experts of the Heavenly God Palace didn’t care about the affairs of the mortal world, so how could the even more mysterious Holy Infant interfere in their affairs?

The only explanation that made sense was that the Holy Infant needed something. He made a deal with the Shang Empire and Country Xu.

“If that’s the case, as long as we show enough sincerity, we can make the same deal with the Holy Infant Temple Master, right?”

“That’s right. Our two countries’ financial and military strength may not be comparable to the Shang Empire, but our region is special and produces many unique treasures. This is something that the Shang Empire and Country Xu can’t compare with!”

The moment they heard that the Holy Infant was after resources, many of the people present were instantly overjoyed.

Minister Guo also nodded.

“The resources that the Holy Infant Temple Master needs are definitely not a small amount. Although he has already obtained the supplies from Country Xu and Shang Empire, our unique advantage will become an existence he can’t ignore.”

“Good! Then I’ll immediately send someone to Tata Village to contact the Holy Infant Temple Master. No, I’ll go personally!”

The King of Country Man smacked his chair and stood up immediately.

Although the King of Country Baitan was still calm, the urgency in his eyes could not be hidden.

“In that case, let’s go together.”

“We are willing to follow you!”

The ministers all expressed their loyalty.

The King and ministers of an empire had all come in person. This lineup was enough to show their sincerity.

Just as the two Kings were about to leave, a sigh sounded in everyone’s mind.

“You guys really made me look for you!”

As the voice fell, everyone saw a figure slowly appear in the center.

“Who is it?”

Everyone was on guard.

Those with cultivation were shocked that they couldn’t see through the person, including the two country rulers.

For those without cultivation, seeing the two country rulers nervous, they were naturally even more frightened.

“Weren’t you guys looking for me? There’s no need to go through so much trouble. If you have anything to say, say it here.”

The person was Lin Qiye.

After he left the Shang Empire, he went to Country Man to discuss the deal with the King.

However, he did not expect that after reaching, not only did the King disappear, but the ministers were also nowhere to be found.

Hence, Lin Qiye went to Country Baitan, but the situation was the same.

Lin Qiye almost thought that the demons had invaded and wiped out the upper echelons of the two empires.

It was only with the help of Wan Meng that he discovered the upper echelons of these two empires had gathered in a secret place and were discussing something.

When the people in the hall heard Lin Qiye’s words, they did not react for a moment.

However, there was one exception, and that was Minister Guo, who had been to Tata Village.

He looked at Lin Qiye with his eyes wide open. He said in disbelief, “Holy- Holy Infant Temple Master!”

As soon as he shouted this title, he couldn’t help but kneel on the spot.

In the past, the shock he had received in Tata Village was indescribable. Even if his respect for Lin Qiye was not as great as his believers, it was a hundred times stronger than the others present.

At that time, he was filled with admiration just by looking at Lin Qiye’s statue.

Now that Minister Guo had seen him in person, it was naturally even harder to hide the excitement in his heart.

When the others saw this, they were stunned on the spot, somewhat at a loss.

Minister Guo knelt in front of this young man?

Ever since he had succeeded the position of Prime Minister of Country Man, he had never even knelt before the King!

The shock of the two kings was no less than that of the other ministers. They had been friends for many years and were familiar with the affairs of each other’s countries.

Therefore, they had no doubts about this youth named the Holy Infant Temple Master.

However, as the country’s rulers, they could not kneel in front of Lin Qiye like Minister Guo.

Moreover, they had only heard of Lin Qiye’s name.

With just a title, even if an even more powerful figure came, it was impossible to make them submit.

“Do you know me?”

Lin Qiye turned to look at the respectful Minister Guo.

Minister Guo raised his head in fear.

“I’ve been to Tata Village for a pilgrimage and had the honor of seeing the Dharma of the Holy Infant.”

The Dharma he was referring to was not the one Lin Qiye had displayed, but the statue in the City God Temple of the Holy Infant.

Lin Qiye retracted his gaze and did not say anything else.

Seeing this, King Man did not dare to be negligent and asked, “You’re the Holy Infant Temple Master?”

Lin Qiye nodded indifferently. “That’s right. I heard that you have many rare resources on hand?”

He looked at the two Kings and cut straight to the chase without nonsense.

The two kings were slightly stunned. They didn’t expect him to be so direct.

Originally, they wanted to further confirm Lin Qiye’s identity. However, after seeing Minister Guo’s attitude and Lin Qiye’s almost undetectable but terrifying aura, they were stunned.

The two immediately gulped and swallowed all the questions they wanted to ask.

As for the officials in the hall, they were silent, not even daring to breathe.

They were in awe of the rumors and could also feel the suppression of Lin Qiye’s aura.

“Yes. Our countries are in a special geographical location, so we are rich in some relatively scarce resources.”

When the two rulers faced Lin Qiye, they subconsciously answered his question.

When they finally came to their senses, they were secretly shocked. In front of Lin Qiye, they did not even dare to have the thought of resisting.

What terrifying power was needed to oppress them to this extent?

The more they tried to sense Lin Qiye’s presence, the more they realized how powerful he was.

In a few short sentences, they had already unconsciously lowered their attitudes.

In reality, it wasn’t because Lin Qiye’s aura was so powerful that they were suppressed.

Instead, Lin Qiye used Wan Meng’s help to strengthen his aura. In addition, he had fought many demons, so he had accumulated a baleful Qi. Naturally, it formed a terrifying aura.

The purpose was to make the people of the empires value their strength.

Only in this way could he take the leading position in the conversation.

“I also heard a little of your conversation just now. Since you all know the rules, make a list of your resources. If there’s something I’m satisfied with, I can help you.”
