"It makes sense, but I never gamble."
Jueliu spread his hands, stood up immediately, and respectfully knelt down on one knee to Su Bujin.
"Lie Wang Juexi respectfully welcomes His Majesty on his return!"
Su Bujin said calmly: "Get up."
"Return His Majesty's Ten Thousand Demonic Pens."
Jueliu then stood up, took out the Ten Thousand Demons Pen, and handed it back to Su Bujin.
"Used it?"
Su Bujin raised his eyebrows and asked.
"not at all."
"That's good."
Immediately, Su Bujin grabbed a handful of uneaten melon seeds and started eating them.
"King Lie, how has the situation in the East China Sea been during my absence? Has there been any attack from outside the territory?"
"Your Majesty, the East China Sea has not been invaded by any external forces during this period. The entire boundless land is in a state of rest and recuperation, and the troops are well-prepared. If an army from outside the territory invades again, I am willing to be the vanguard to defend against the enemy."
Jueliu said.
"When I came back, I walked around the Boundless Land. Compared to the dilapidated islands, Boundless Land is really a paradise."
Su Bujin said.
When foreign armies invaded, they mainly invaded the islands. Most of the islands were destroyed into ruins, and it would take an unknown number of years to rebuild them. However, there was no battlefield here in the boundless land. Although due to the withdrawal of Qingyabo, various ethnic groups fought. There was quite a bit of chaos when Xiang moved in, but the resources of the boundless land were not destroyed, and the cultivation environment was much better than that of the islands.
Most of those 80% resources belong to the archipelago, so the situation in the archipelago is much worse than that of the boundless land.
"I am willing to allocate 20% of the resources from the boundless land to the islands to help my fellow demon tribesmen in the islands tide over the difficulties."
Jueliu said.
"Twenty percent of resources... This is not a small amount. King Lie, have you really thought about it?"
Su Bujin glanced at him and asked.
"I have already prepared 20% of the resources. I am just waiting for His Majesty's order. As long as Your Majesty agrees, I will send someone to send the resources immediately."
Jueliu said.
"King Lie is still very considerate. I didn't expect that King Lie would be so righteous. If I don't reward you with something, it will seem like I'm being unkind."
Su Bujin smiled.
"If your majesty really wants to reward me, then please remove me from the position of the martyr king. I am used to being alone. Besides, I have so many affairs all day long that I don't even have the chance to practice. Fame and power are tempting, but peace and harmony Compared with cultivation level, these are not that important. I think the boy of yours named Jun Lintianxia whom Your Majesty transferred is quite good. It is better to let him take over the boundless land, so I ask for Your Majesty's permission."
Jueliu said.
"..."
Su Bujin glanced at Jueli when he heard this.
Jue Li's face remained as usual, without any expression fluctuations.
Su Bujin stepped forward, helped Jue Li up and said: "King Lie is my right-hand man and the mainstay of the East China Sea. I need you, and the East China Sea needs you. He is still relatively inexperienced as king, so I transferred him to the boundless land. In fact, I just want him to learn from Lie Wang well, so Lie Wang should stop saying this. Neither I nor Donghai can do without you, Lie Wang. I will appoint you as Donghai Grand Prime Minister to help me handle the affairs of the Ten Thousand Demons Hall. how?"
"Since your majesty has said so, I... I will obey your order, but I am exempt from the position of Donghai Dazai. I am still stretched thin to govern a boundless land and have no spare time to care about other things."
Jueliu said.
"Well, since King Lie said so, I won't force you. I will leave the boundless land to you. I can rest assured."
Su Bujin patted Jueli on the shoulder and said sincerely.
"I will do my best to repay His Majesty's grace."
"Okay, I'm going back to the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons, so I won't stay here any longer. Prince Lie, please take care of yourself. I'm leaving."
"Congratulations to Your Majesty!"
Su Bujin left without even looking at the Titanoboa leader.
........
"call........"
After Su Bujin left, Jueliu stood up and breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Prince Lie, let me be frank. His Majesty just wanted to canonize you as the Grand Prime Minister of the East China Sea. Why didn't you agree? That is a position that is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people."
the Titanoboa leader asked.
Jueli really didn't want to deal with this simple-minded guy, so he turned around and left.
"Prince Lie, please tell me."
The Titanoboa leader shouted reluctantly.
"Stop shouting."
Caiqing's figure appeared and said to the Titanoboa leader with some helplessness.
"Cai Qing?"
"Taiheng, it's no wonder that King Lie doesn't want to talk to you. Can't you see? His Majesty was testing King Lie just now."
Caiqing said.
"Testing?"
Taiheng was stunned.
Caiqing explained: "King Lie controls the boundless land and is the representative of the new nine tribes. At the same time, he is close to the Golden-winged Dapeng tribe. In addition, he now holds great power, so the person that His Majesty is most afraid of in the East China Sea is him."
"But Your Majesty cannot kill King Lie, because if he kills King Lie, the East China Sea will inevitably be in chaos, and a war is likely to break out between the boundless land and the islands."
"It is necessary to both use and defend. This is His Majesty's attitude towards King Lie. King Lie knows this, so he will allocate 20% of the resources of the boundless land to the islands to show his loyalty to Your Majesty. , but His Majesty is also very suspicious, and 20% of the resources are not enough for her to get rid of the estrangement against King Lie, so His Majesty will use the position of Donghai Dazai to test whether King Lie has any dissent. If King Lie really accepts it, then Your Majesty will not If you kill him, you will definitely take away his power.”
Taiheng nodded thoughtfully: "That's it."
"The same goes for you. Thanks to His Majesty's generosity, if you say such disrespectful words, even if His Majesty kills you, it won't be too much."
Caiqing glared at Taiheng and said.
"I didn't know His Majesty would suddenly appear."
Taiheng rolled his eyes and said.
"Be careful what you say in the future."
Caiqing reminded.
"Cai Qing, tell me, is Prince Lie really loyal to Your Majesty?"
Taiheng asked.
"How dare you say such things!"
Caiqing looked at Taiheng with an expression of "Do you have a long memory?"
Tai Heng explained: "No, don't you think Prince Lie is a guy who is hard to see through? I even think he has His Majesty's thoughts deep. Who knows whether what he shows is really the same as what he thinks in his heart. "
"..."
Caiqing fell into silence.
"Cai Qing, what if Prince Lie is really..."
"enough!"
Caiqing scolded, interrupting Taiheng's words.
"I don't know whether King Lie is loyal or traitorous, but he is a smart man and I believe he will not make stupid decisions."
........
The Hall of Ten Thousand Demons.
Su Bujin and the top executives of Donghai were all there.
"Elder Guan, please give me a message."
Su Bujin said to Elder Guan.
Elder Guan shook his head and said, "I don't agree."
Su Bujin asked: "Why?"
