Yang Xiao stood in the messy palace hall of Wentian City of the Zhongzhou Empire and glanced around, feeling very surprised in his heart.
This city was formerly called Tianhu City. After Yang Xiao captured it, it became the capital of the Zhongzhou Empire and was renamed Wentian City.
A few months ago, he came back once. At that time, Wentian City was in good condition, and the palace hall was magnificent, but in front of him it was dilapidated and in a mess.
"Qi Lao, what happened?" At this moment, in the main hall, Qi Lao, Heimu, Feihu, Olitai and other ten generals were all there.
Olitai and others rushed back after receiving Qi Lao's message. They didn't know what happened. They only heard that someone was attacking Wentian City.
Kuroki and Feihu were injured and sat on chairs. Although he took Essence and Blood Pills to heal his injuries, the scars and blood stains on his body were clearly visible.
Qi Lao sighed and said: "Hey, Yang Xiao, it would be nice if you came back. I thought something big happened to you." Qi Lao had heard from Brother Longjin before that he came to take over Zhongzhou under the orders of Thanos and Mad Saint. The empire thought that Yang Xiao had been arrested or even died, but they were relieved to see that Yang Xiao was unharmed in front of them.
"Mr. Qi, what happened?"
"Half a day ago, two brothers, claiming to be the captains of the guards of the Mad Saint Thanos, said they were ordered to take over the Zhongzhou Empire,"
"Are they Longjin Da and Longjin brothers?"
"Yang Xiao, how did you know?" Yang Xiao nodded and said, "What happened next? Tell me first."
"The two brothers said they were ordered to take over the Zhongzhou Empire. However, there was neither a letter of appointment from the Mad Saint Thanos nor the company of the temple elders. How could we hand over the Zhongzhou Empire to them, so we started fighting."
"Are you injured?" Yang Xiao looked at Heimu and Feihu and asked with concern. Longjin Da Nai is at the advanced level of the emperor, and Longjin Er is at the intermediate level of the emperor. The genetic evolution level of the two brothers is higher than that of Qi Lao and others. Yang Xiao estimates that Qi Lao and others may have suffered a disadvantage.
At least the dilapidated palace and the embarrassed Kuroki and Feihu in front of them proved this conjecture. Feihu laughed and said: "Boss, we are no match for them in a one-on-one fight. However, so many of us are not vegetarians, and the two brothers did not get any advantage."
"Oh, the two brothers were driven away by you?"
"That's natural," Kuroki chuckled and said with some pride: "The younger brother of the two brothers was injured and was taken away by his brother. Fortunately, Ma De, he ran fast, otherwise, I would have killed them. Look at where our Zhongzhou Empire is. He dares to challenge us casually. One hundred thousand guards are waiting for him outside." Although the battle was very dangerous at the time, and I still have lingering fears when I think about it now, Heimu stood up in front of Yang Xiao. , it is impossible to admit defeat with your mouth.
Heimu and others were not killed by the Longjin brothers, and Yang Xiao was relieved. Before coming here, Yang Xiao had not thought that since Thanos had fallen out with him, he would definitely punish the Zhongzhou Empire to take revenge on Yang Xiao.
What he is most worried about is the conflict between Qi Lao and others and Thanos. Although Qi Lao and others are also at the emperor level, they are still far behind Thanos and Mad Saint, and they are simply not good enough to fight.
"Fortunately, it's the Longjin brothers who came. These two brothers were injured by me before they came, and they probably haven't fully recovered yet. Otherwise, you are really in danger." Yang Xiao said.
Qi Lao and others were shocked when they heard this, and said, "Yang Xiao, are those two brothers really the captains of the bodyguards of the Mad Saint Thanos?"
"Yes," Yang Xiao nodded, and immediately briefly explained the conflict between himself and Thanos. Everyone was surprised when they heard this.
"Mr. Qi, brothers, I came here in a hurry because I was worried that you would be harmed by Thanos. Now that I see that you are okay, I am relieved. However," Yang Xiao paused and scanned Everyone glanced at each other and said, "I have broken up with the Mad Saint Thanos. He has already attacked the Zhongzhou Empire. Although he was lucky enough to escape this time, they will send people over in a few days."
"Boss, what should we do?" Olitai asked. Yang Xiao sighed and said: "Brother Longjin was defeated by me this time. The eldest brother lost an arm, and the second brother was almost beaten to death by me. The two brothers came to take over, and they must have come to avenge themselves. I I guess they have two minds,"
"First, it's possible to take action on my brothers and friends, that is, you," Yang Xiao said, pointing to Qi Lao and others in the hall.
"Secondly, they will definitely remove all the people at the emperor level and above in the Zhongzhou Empire, including some people at the high king level, and then transfer these people to the frontline battlefield of Wu Star, so that they can completely remove the Zhongzhou Empire's warriors. The power has caused me to lose the foundation of the Zhongzhou Empire."
"Hmph, Old Thanos, you go too far to bully others. At worst, you'll die if you fight with him." Feihu had a bad temper and slapped the table with his palm, smashing the table into pieces with a crash.
"Yang Xiao, what should we do?" Qi Lao looked at Yang Xiao. Qi Lao thought that since Yang Xiao had already thought of this and rushed over in a hurry, he should have a countermeasure.
Yang Xiao glanced at the dozens of people in the hall. In addition to the ten generals of the Zhongzhou Empire, there were also some younger brothers who had followed him before.
After a moment of silence, he said: "Brothers, this time I had a falling out with Thanos because of my own personal reasons, which in turn affected everyone. I'm sorry."
"Boss, why do you say such things and stop treating us as brothers?"
"Boss, we share blessings and hardships, we are not afraid." Everyone said, patting their chests. Everyone admired and convinced Yang Xiao, the boss.
"Thank you brothers for trusting me. I'm here to tell you that since Thanos wants to harm you to retaliate against me, we might as well break up."
"Yang Xiao, what do you mean?" Qi Lao was stunned and looked at Yang Xiao.
"Don't worry, listen to me. Brother Longjin is angry with you because of his revenge on me. If you continue to stay in the Zhongzhou Empire, you will be manipulated by these two brothers. Instead of waiting to be slaughtered, it is better for us to break up first. When their brothers come to the Zhongzhou Empire next time and find that it is just an empty city, who can he turn to to vent his anger on?" After hearing this, everyone felt that it was reasonable and laughed immediately.
"Boss, this is a good idea. Let them miss everything, haha."
"Tell me, next time the Longjin brothers come to the Zhongzhou Empire and find that this is just an empty city, will they be so angry that they vomit blood, haha."
"What a fool, I won't play with them anymore,"
"Yeah, since they are unkind and unjust, why should we play with them?"...
"Boss, are we going to give up on the Zhongzhou Empire like this?" Some people expressed regret and reluctance.
"The Zhongzhou Empire was built with great effort by our brothers who shed blood and worked hard. I know that everyone is reluctant to part with it, and I am also very reluctant to part with it. However, the current situation is urgent. If you continue to stay in the Zhongzhou Empire, you may be harmed by Brother Longjin. Secondly, hundreds of thousands of troops will be drafted to fight on the front line of Wu Star, and they will escape death."
"I have thought about it again and again. My personal suggestion is that if any of you want to stay in the Zhongzhou Empire and cooperate with Thanos, you can. If you are worried about being harmed by Thanos, you can leave on your own for the time being. Take a group of brothers to live in remote small cities in the Zhongzhou Empire, or occupy the mountains and become kings. There are also millions of troops in the Zhongzhou Empire. Please explain the situation to them clearly, if they are willing to follow Thanos to conquer alien planets. Yes, you can continue to stay in the army. If you don't want to, you can disband and leave the army."
"In addition, I have decided to distribute all the treasury income of all the cities in the Zhongzhou Empire to the brothers according to the usual salary ratio. Whether they are senior leaders or ordinary military guards, everyone has a share. As for whether to stay or not, you decide for yourself. .”
