The Strongest Mythical Emperor-Chapter 56 - She is your Daughter-in-law

56: Chapter 56 She is your Daughter-in-law

56 -56 She is your Daughter-in-law

“I believe General Guan should be the most suitable to defend Yuguan City,”

the Qian Emperor said with a smile on his face, but to Zhu Yishi, that smile was utterly detestable.

Wasn’t this using power to suppress people?

Zhu Yishi thought bitterly, not realizing that the very essence of a confrontation between two countries is to allow the victorious side to use its power to suppress the other.

Five years ago, their Canglan Kingdom did the same to the envoys from Qianyue Kingdom.

“If anyone in your country disapproves, they can come to me once I am defending Yuguan City, but my Azure Dragon Crescent Blade will show no mercy,” Guan Yu said as he stroked his beard, having already discussed this point with Qin Jun.

Guan Yu joined the military to campaign and seize military achievements, replacing Nan Meng.

As for Qin Jun, who was in the royal capital, he was protected by Daji and Roaring Sky Dog.

Although Roaring Sky Dog had never taken action, Qin Jun knew that, once this black dog erupted, it was a superpower at the Earth Immortal Realm, capable of instantly killing both Guan Yu and Daji.

With things having come to this point, if Zhu Yishi and the others still dared to contradict, they likely wouldn’t be able to leave Qianzhen Hall today.

Immediately, Jia Xun and Zhu Yishi began to sign the agreement.

In this world, agreements on paper were extremely important; if a kingdom broke its word, the other kingdoms would isolate it.

Otherwise, there would be no talk of alliances between kingdoms.

“Next, let’s discuss the resource allocation for trade between our two nations!” Jia Xun continued after presenting the agreement to the Qian Emperor.

Thanks to the deterrence of Guan Yu and Qin Jun, the subsequent negotiations were much simpler.

Qin Jun no longer interjected, but if Zhu Yishi and the others dared to have any excessive objections, he would signal Guan Yu to unleash his killing intent, causing Zhu Yishi and the group to be terrified, wishing to end the negotiations immediately.

The smile never left the face of the Qian Emperor.

He had originally thought that in the confrontation between the two countries, they would lose again and be suppressed by Canglan Kingdom in various negotiations.

However, he did not expect Qin Jun, accompanied by Guan Yu, a divine soldier, to break the embarrassing predicament of Qianyue Kingdom and also to win victory in all negotiations.

To say without exaggeration, Qin Jun’s merits were greater than those of winning a war.

Because of today’s victory, Canglan Kingdom lost Xiao Beilong, equivalent to losing an arm.

Coupled with the suppression in negotiations, Qianyue Kingdom instantly rose above Canglan Kingdom.

After all, a general at the Ascending Mortal Realm could match a million soldiers!

During the negotiations, everyone on the side of Qianyue Kingdom was full of smiles, except for Qin Yu, who always had a gloomy face and remained silent.

Fortunately, no one paid attention to him.

“I must say, His Majesty’s Third Prince is truly exceptional.

I thought the Fifth Prince was outstanding, but now it seems the truly formidable one is the Third Prince,”

Zhu Yishi stood up and said with a sigh of appreciation after the negotiations ended, his intention to sow discord clearly audible, but Qin Jun actually retorted, “Nonsense, I’m his brother; of course, I’m better than him.

But your country choosing you as the Crown Prince, don’t you think you’re a bit blind?”

Pfft—

Unable to hold back the resentment building inside him, Qin Yu spat out blood in a fit of rage and promptly fainted.

Zhu Yishi’s smile also froze on his face, feeling as if a myriad of divine beasts were stampeding through his heart.

“Once I ascend to the throne, I will surely launch a campaign against your Qianyue Kingdom!” Zhu Yishi cursed inwardly.

“Ding!

Side quest triggered — First to Ascend!

Quest details: Ascend to the throne before Zhu Yishi, and Zhu Yishi must not die before the task is completed!

Completing the quest will earn 100,000 experience points and one random draw!”

Qin Jun was stunned, thinking, wow, just how much does this kid hate me to trigger such a huge quest, and the reward is quite generous!

“Summon someone to assist the Fifth Prince down!”

the Qian Emperor ordered with a somber face, what was supposed to be a joyous occasion was ruined by Qin Yu’s spitting of blood and fainting, how disappointing!

The Grand Tutor Jia Xun let out a wry smile and quickly went out to call the palace guards.

The once-favored Fifth Prince was now so disfavored by the Qian Emperor; truly, the imperial family was fickle.

Thus, the delegates from both kingdoms walked out of Qianzhen Hall, chatting and laughing, though the smiles of the envoys from Canglan Kingdom were forced.

After this meeting, they had no idea how they would explain the outcome to their Emperor.

“Father, did the jest we made just now count?”

On the way, Qin Jun asked the Qian Emperor, his face a picture of pitiful hopefulness that almost made the Qian Emperor laugh.

“Of course, it counts!” the Qian Emperor dismissed with a wave of his hand, clearly understanding that Qin Jun was referring to the matter of Guan Yu defending Yuguan City.

This was an excellent opportunity to promote Guan Yu and have him face off against Nan Meng.

Moreover, Guan Yu’s feat of beheading Xiao Beilong in a single stroke would certainly intimidate all the generals of Canglan Kingdom; appointing him was the perfect choice!

After today, he believed Guan Yu’s fame would surpass that of Nan Meng, as the legendary feat of killing Xiao Beilong in one move was truly awe-inspiring.

It had to be said that the Guan Yu from the ‘Romance of the Three Kingdoms’ who dazzled all the lords, was still impressive after becoming a God and arriving in this God and Demon world.

The Jade Emperor had him guarding the celestial gate, which was somewhat beneath his abilities!

“Thank you, Father, for making it possible!” Qin Jun joyfully said, feeling almost too embarrassed to usurp the throne when the Qian Emperor was so good to him.

Although he was now powerful, he still did not want to directly commit treason, especially after meeting the Qian Emperor.

Patricide was, after all, a heinous and unfilial act, and although Qin Jun could now kill without blinking an eye, he was not deranged enough to commit such a crime against human nature.

After all, the Qian Emperor wouldn’t last many more years.

“Tell me, how did you escape from that group of guards?”

The Qian Emperor asked with a light chuckle, with no hint of reprimand, much like a benevolent father.

The ministers behind him were also brimming with curiosity, and figures like Zhu Yishi perked up their ears.

The man who caused the reversal of fortunes between the two kingdoms surely had a story.

Could it really be as others said that he used to be inept and even brought shame to the royal family?

Zhu Yishi deeply doubted this, as Qin Jun, regardless of his extremely presumptuous speech, always managed to exploit the weaknesses of his opponents.

Moreover, with the recent confrontation between the two kingdoms, he had been present from the beginning; if he had sent Guan Yu out from the start, Xiao Beilong wouldn’t have died.

First he feigned recklessness to pressure Xiao Beilong into a life-and-death bet, and then killed Xiao Beilong outright and legitimately.

Such a strategy could only be described as venomous.

“Is the Qianyue Kingdom truly on the rise?”

Zhu Yishi thought as he looked at the tall figure of Qin Jun, but he would not forget the humiliation Qin Jun had dealt him and vowed to repay it in the future.

Qin Jun recounted the tale simply, essentially saying that his old friend Daji had come to his rescue and even helped him kill Xiahou En.

“What’s the background of this Daji?” the Qian Emperor inquired, puzzled.

He had assumed that Guan Yu had killed Xiahou En, but to hear that it was someone else was unexpected.

Given Xiahou En’s strength and various tactics, not even an Ascending Mortal Realm warrior could necessarily kill him, which suggested that Daji’s power was definitely above that of the Ascending Mortal Realm.

Zhu Yishi and the other envoys from Canglan Kingdom inhaled sharply, exchanging glances.

Having one Guan Yu was terrifying enough; they hadn’t expected Qin Jun to have another such powerful figure under him.

“She’s your daughter-in-law!” Qin Jun chuckled, unembarrassed by his proclamation.

Most importantly, he was worried that the Qian Emperor might take a fancy to Daji!

Thus, he had to administer a preemptive defense.

King Zhou couldn’t resist the allure of Daji’s beauty, so Qin Jun didn’t believe the Qian Emperor was much different. freewёbnoνel.com
