C674 Is it a dragon or a worm
The reason why Zhao Family came to the southern territory was naturally to have a share of the Deity's Pill s' spoils, but because Deity's Pill were listed as Human Clan's strategic resources, even if the Zhao Family wanted to interfere, she was unable to enter.
Now that the opportunity had come, most of the reinforcements came from the major powers in the southern region. As long as the reinforcements entered South Sky City, it would also mean that the iron bucket South Sky would enter the control of the major powers.
If Zhao Family wanted to get her hands on him, it was naturally easy. After seeing through the three people he was thinking about, she naturally couldn't look down on them.
However, even if Zhao Mingli did not say it, Wu Shenkong could only transfer the remaining reinforcements to the Yuxu Sect.
If he lost all of South Sky City's resources, he would be completely exposed to the Demon Clan's iron hooves.
After Dugu Tianyu finished reporting the letter, she left. He had already done what he had to do, and was even pulled by Ye Tianze to watch a big show that she was scared out of her wits, as she no longer wanted to get involved with the matters at the border.
Furthermore, after this huge battle, the Dugu had already intervened in South Sky City. At the very least, she wouldn't worry about the Deity's Pill in the future.
Most importantly, he did not want to have anything to do with the Zhao Family.
After Family Head Dugu left, Wu Shenkong said: "You can also transfer reinforcements to Jade Hollow City, but, shouldn't you give up your Vermillion Bird's Blade!"
Without the Vermillion Bird's Blade, just by himself, it would be difficult to guard South Sky City. Moreover, the Yuxu Sect was not as easy to guard as the Vermillion Bird City.
Zhao Mingli seemed to have already predicted that Wu Shenkong would make a deal with him, and said with a smile: "It's not that I'm not willing to hand it over, but that Vermillion Bird's Blade has already been delivered to human palace.
"Why don't you know what I'm doing?" Wu Shenkong was angry.
"When I sent Doutian Yulong to the Dragon Resisting Realm, I also sent him there along the way." Zhao Mingli said, "Your Majesty's Will, I dare not disobey."
"Stop using the Your Majesty to pressure me!" Wu Shenkong was furious, but he had no choice.
In the end, he gave the order for the reinforcements to retreat to the Vermillion Bird City, because he was worried that the magister would make a comeback and attack South Sky City directly.
Another half a month had passed. When the reinforcements withdrew into the Yuxu Sect, the envoys of the Demon Clan rushed over from the Vermillion Bird City and requested for negotiations.
Wu Shenkong felt that there was something behind this man's back, but he did not know what the hell this man was doing. After all, the Demon Clan had the absolute advantage.
As expected, when the Monster Messenger came, he immediately opened his mouth wide, not only did he ask for the Human Clan to cede the entire South Sky City, he also asked for two times more offerings than before!
After the great battle, the Southern region human race had already fallen into a state of emptiness. If he were to offer this two times more as a tribute to the Demon Clan, he wouldn't even be able to live through the entire Southern Domain.
Wu Shenkong naturally refused, and the first round of negotiations came to an end.
However, unexpectedly, the Demon Clan did not attack South Sky. According to the scouts, Demon Clan and the others only sent some wolf-riding to harass South Sky.
Until the arrival of the Human Emperor's decree, Wu Shenkong finally understood that although the Demon Clan was seemingly negotiating, it was actually just to stall for time and stabilize the city's defenses, so that they could prevent the Human Clan from sending their troops to attack the Vermillion Bird City again.
Human Emperor found out about everything in the Southern Domain and gave back his Vermillion Bird's Blade. He ordered Vermillion Bird to make meritorious service and to protect South Sky City.
Other than that, Ye Tianze received a huge reward. In view of his outstanding battle achievements, the Human Emperor had bestowed the entire South Sky City to him as his territory.
It was just that, everyone felt that this reward was neither painful nor itchy, and did not match with Ye Tianze's achievements. After all, South Sky was itself within the sphere of influence of the Yuxu Sect.
Right now, giving it to Ye Tianze was a little too much!
Although the Vermillion Bird had lost the Jade Hollow City, the people who lost this time were not the Vermillion Bird, but the few great families who assassinated the Vermillion Bird from behind her back.
If Vermillion Bird Legion knew that Vermillion Bird was still alive, sshe would probably not be attacked so easily. Furthermore, if Demon Clan knew that Vermillion Bird was still alive, he would definitely weigh the pros and cons.
On the contrary, it was a single order, allowing the Southern Domain to recuperate and not allow internal conflicts to occur!
Wu Shenkong got a little angry after getting the decree, and said with a cold face: "You're up to no good again, aren't you!"
The one who read the decree was naturally the Human Emperor Emissary, Zhao Mingli. However, Zhao Mingli smiled and said: "This time, I did not do anything wrong, it's just that the Your Majesty trusts me."
The order was very clear. The order was that Zhao Mingli would be the main official in the negotiation with the Demon Clan, and after the negotiation, would be in charge of South Heaven, guarding South Sky with the Vermillion Bird.
With Human Emperor's endorsement, Zhao Family did not even need to control a certain power in the southern region to be able to easily infiltrate into the Yuxu Sect.
This was also why Wu Shenkong was so angry. If this was the case, then Ye Tianze's entire leader only looked like a lord, and the real power still lay in the hands of the Vermillion Bird Legion and Zhao Mingli.
"Cut the crap. If you are negotiating with the Demon Clan, if you dare to cut the soil to make peace, he does not need to kill you, I will also kill you!" Wu Shenkong threatened with a cold face.
According to my information, the Demon Clan does not plan to attack again. While the Demon Clan is attacking the Human Clan, the Witch Clan has already launched a fierce attack at the borders of the Demon Clan! Zhao Mingli said, "magister is currently too busy to take care of himself, it's already not bad for Vermillion Bird City to reserve at most a million Demon Clan, how can they have the ability to attack South Sky City!"
Wu Shenkong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He had already received news that he hadn't even received himself, and he didn't know whether to be sad or celebrate!
"Oh right, Your Majesty has a private message for me to deliver to Hall Master." Zhao Mingli said, "This one still has matters to attend to, so I will not disturb the hall master, goodbye."
After Zhao Mingli left, Wu Shenkong opened his private message and looked. He realized that it was indeed written by the Human Emperor, and there was only one line written inside: Whether it is a dragon or a worm, look at your luck.
Wu Shenkong suddenly understood why the Human Emperor had sent Zhao Mingli to South Sky City. It was obvious that they had intentionally caused trouble for Ye Tianze and the Vermillion Bird.
Before, he thought that he understood this Your Majesty a lot, but now, he realized that he actually didn't understand this Your Majesty at all.
So many things had happened in South Sky City. Vermillion Bird City was lost, Vermillion Bird Legion was defeated and returned, reinforcements lost several tens of thousands of people, and even Vermillion Bird almost died.
But in the Your Majesty's tone, it was as if everything that had happened here was nothing in his eyes.
"Good fortune, haha, in Your Majesty's eyes, what kind of great achievement is considered a dragon?" Wu Shenkong put down the private message, and the letter instantly turned into ashes.
Although there were many dissatisfaction, Wu Shenkong was still relieved. Although the Vermillion Bird City was lost, but at least the danger to the south was temporarily relieved.
