Fighting to the death is the most courageous opinion.
The Red Cauldron Emperor almost lost his temper and vomited blood. If it weren't for a powerful enemy, he might have killed this old servant directly.
"Your Majesty, this old slave is loyal to Your Majesty. If Your Majesty cares about the common people, choose the first option; if Your Majesty wants to take a chance, choose the second option; if Your Majesty wants to save his life, choose the third option; if Your Majesty wants to save his life, choose the third option.
If you have some backbone, the only way is to fight to the death."
Mr. Guo kowtowed heavily and cried out with blood: "This old slave serves Your Majesty. Now that he is old and frail, he dies. It doesn't matter. However, this old slave is loyal and gives advice to Your Majesty. That Jiang Chen used to deal with the Immortal Capital."
His methods have already proved what kind of person he is. It is unrealistic for Your Majesty to expect him not to care about this matter. This knife is nothing more than a matter of sooner or later."
Mr. Guo's words were like sharp blades, which the Emperor Chiding could not avoid.
Emperor Chiding also knew that what Mr. Guo said was very reasonable. Mr. Guo was loyal, Mr. Guo was upright, and Mr. Guo would not be like some sycophants who only choose nice things to say.
"Your Majesty, outside the palace, representatives from the three major sects, the Chili Sect, the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect, and the Tianying Sect, have come together to request an audience with Your Majesty." The palace guards came in to report.
The three major sects come together to seek an audience?
The Red Cauldron Emperor was overjoyed. At the critical moment, these three sects were the pillars of the empire. These three sects were all third-grade sects. If they could unite closely around the Red Cauldron royal family, even if they still could not reconcile with Liuli
It's a confrontation in the royal city, but at least the situation can be stabilized.
If Young Master Zhen cannot control the other great emperors in Liuli King City and only sends the forces from the Peacock Holy Mountain to deal with the Red Cauldron Central Territory, maybe he can still fight?
The Red Cauldron Central Territory suddenly had a little hope.
"Quick, tell them to come in quickly. No, these three major sects will never leave each other at this critical moment. I have to go and greet them personally." Emperor Chiding was very happy.
Mr. Guo said: "Your Majesty, you are the supreme emperor of the empire. What's the etiquette of going to pick them up in person? You might as well invite them in and see what they say."
Emperor Chiding was having a fever just now, but he calmed down immediately and nodded: "Mr. Guo, go greet them on my behalf."
After a while, Mr. Guo came with representatives from the three major sects.
"Greetings to Your Majesty." The three major sects who came this time were all their respective sect masters. These three major sect masters had extraordinary status. When they saw Emperor Chiding, they did not kneel down and bow. Instead, they cupped their fists and bowed slightly.
Such a simple salute made Emperor Red Cauldron feel an inexplicable twitch in his heart, giving him a vague feeling of something not good.
Because, he found that the expressions of these three sect leaders were a little solemn, and their salutes were obviously perfunctory.
"The three dear friends who came together today must have heard those rumors and come here to share their worries with me, right?" Emperor Chiding said with a smile.
The leader of the Chili Sect was the first to speak: "Your Majesty, the last time we went to the Bengyun Mountains, our Chili Sect's vitality was severely damaged. Now is the troubled time, our Chili Sect is deeply in crisis, and our destiny is shaky. Therefore, we plan to close the mountain gate and close the sect.
One hundred years. I came here specifically to say something to His Majesty."
"What? Close the sect for a hundred years?" Emperor Chiding's heart sank, as if a sledgehammer hit his chest, making his face turn pale.
"Yes." The head of the Chili Sect had a calm expression. He was not afraid of the cannibalistic look in Emperor Chiding's eyes.
"Your Majesty, our Tianying Sect is also ordinary. The last incident in the Bengyun Mountain Range also severely damaged our Tianying Sect's vitality. Therefore, we plan to close the sect for a hundred years and not engage in worldly affairs. We will cultivate our health and rest."
"Our Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect has always been independent of the world. Now that the outside world has changed, our third-level sect of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect is unable to intervene in those whirlpools. Therefore, we plan to close the sect for two hundred years and remain independent of the world."
He became even more ruthless and closed the sect for two hundred years.
Emperor Chiding almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.
He thought that these three major sects were here to help him solve his problems. However, he did not expect that these three guys actually came to resign.
To put it bluntly, this is to separate the relationship.
In other words, these three major sects have seen the subtlety of the situation and plan to abandon the Red Cauldron Royal Family and abandon the Scarlet Cauldron Royal Family.
"Three of you, have you discussed this, right? No one dares to come, so the three families have joined forces to give me a blow?" Emperor Chiding's tone was full of dissatisfaction.
"Don't dare. We are all His Majesty's subjects. How dare we give you authority?" The leader of the Chili Sect was neither humble nor arrogant.
"Yes, Your Majesty, don't think too much about it."
"Well, my people, my people, are abandoning me in this turbulent time? Could it be that the relationship between our Red Cauldron royal family and your three major sects cannot withstand even a few rumors?"
The Scarlet Cauldron Emperor was furious, "You and other three sects are fed and used by the top resources of the Scarlet Cauldron Central Territory, and you enjoy the top class treatment. At the critical moment, you will repay the Scarlet Cauldron Central Territory like this."
? By doing this, are you worthy of all living beings and common people in the Central Territory of Scarlet Cauldron? Are you worthy of those supporters who regard you as the pillars of Scarlet Cauldron? Are you worthy of the royal family’s regard for you? "
Mr. Guo, who was standing aside, secretly shook his head after hearing this. What did the Red Cauldron Emperor say about the common people at this time?
The leader of the Chili Sect smiled lightly and said: "Your Majesty, there is no point in talking about this. There has always been only one person who enjoys the top resources of the Red Cauldron Central Territory, and that is the Scarlet Cauldron Central Territory. We and other three sects also
It's nothing more than sharing some leftovers. Besides, we are a sect, and it should be your duty to worry about the common people in the world."
"Yes, Your Majesty said that you have great respect for our three sects. Last time in the Bengyun Mountains, we heard that everything was set up by the royal family to give our three sects a show of strength. Many of our three sects were destroyed.
Centaur. His Majesty still hasn’t given us an explanation for this matter.”
Speaking of this matter, Emperor Chiding became even more angry: "My younger brother, Prince Zhao, also fell in the Bengyun Mountains. How can you set up a trap? You can't think of it."
"Okay, let's not mention this matter. When we invaded the territory of Wanxiang, Your Majesty promised our three sects to have one heaven-level elixir for each family. Did Your Majesty fulfill it?"
This matter is another stain on Emperor Chiding.
"Do you think I didn't give it to you on purpose? That's because I didn't get any heaven-level elixir from Danqian Palace." Emperor Chiding did get the heaven-level elixir, but the amount was not enough to distribute to these three sects and one family.
One plant.
"Haha, your Majesty can say whatever you want now. The three sects and I didn't get any benefits when we invaded the Wanxiang territory and caused trouble. Now, it's not fair to ask us to take responsibility for that incident, right?"
"That's right, there is no such truth in the world. There are no benefits, but the disadvantages must be borne together. We and other three sects do not have the ability to withstand the thunderous wrath of Liuli King City."
The sect leaders of these three sects were no longer reserved when they saw Emperor Chiding's displeasure.
To put it bluntly, they had already seen through the Red Cauldron Emperor. They simply wanted to maintain this dominant position and wanted the three major sects to serve as cannon fodder for him.
The three major sects are not stupid either. They were glad that they were not involved in what happened that time. Now that they had the opportunity to clear things up, they naturally immediately cut off their relationship. Keeping the sect closed is the right way to go.
Even if the Red Cauldron Central Territory were to change its master, it would be none of their business. It would just be a change of master. It might even have a better future.
The Yan family has ruled the Red Cauldron Central Territory for so long, but it has not brought much benefit to the Red Cauldron Central Territory. The three major sects, as the pillars, have not achieved much development in these years.
Emperor Chiding felt a dull pain in his chest, and murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
However, these three sect masters are not good men and women, and any one of them is no worse than him as the emperor.
The three of them joined forces and were able to break into the palace. If they really wanted to order their execution, if one of them escaped and the three major sects collectively besieged the royal family, it would be a doomed situation.
Trying to control the anger in his heart, the Red Cauldron Emperor sighed softly: "I do have a clear conscience regarding the three sect masters and the heavenly elixir. However, as an apology, I can take three plants from the treasury to make up for the three."
"No need."
"Haha, after we close the sect, we will not participate in disputes, and we will not care about heaven-level elixirs."
"Yes, I'm afraid I won't be able to tolerate it."
The three sect masters are all on the same page. At this time, they will not ask for anything from Emperor Chiding. Whatever they take now is a hot potato.
After saying this, the three sect leaders took their leave.
Seeing the three sect leaders leaving, Commander He's eyes were filled with fire: "Your Majesty, please give the order. I am willing to lead a team to kill these three rebellious people."
The Red Cauldron Emperor waved his hand feebly: "Don't make mistakes. The three major sects have strong foundations. Once they turn against them, the Central Region of Scarlet Cauldron will surely be in endless civil strife."
If it were a sect, he would not hesitate to take action. The three major sects were the three pillars of the empire. If they attacked together, it would not be easy for the Red Cauldron Royal Family to withstand them.
"Mr. Guo, call my prince. I will send him to Danhuo City in person to ask for help. Let him be a hostage and express to Danhuo City my determination to join the Red Cauldron Central Region."
Emperor Chiding finally made up his mind.
Proton, that is a very humiliating diplomatic method. It is to use your son as a hostage and mortgage it with others. To put it bluntly, you are letting others manipulate you.
Emperor Chiding did not hesitate to use this method and planned to seek refuge in Danhuo City. This shows that he was already seriously ill and sought medical treatment.
The prince quickly called for help. After hearing what Emperor Chiding meant, the prince did not hesitate: "Father, I am willing to share my father's worries and go to Danhuo City for help.
The Red Cauldron Emperor was overjoyed and relieved that after all, he still had a worthy son. He immediately ordered Mr. Guo to make preparations and secretly send the prince away from the Central Territory of Red Cauldron.
"Son, this time you go to Danhuo City. If Danhuo City can accept our defection, my father will bring you back sooner or later. If Danhuo City refuses to save you, you will stay there and don't have to come back. For me
It would be good for the Yan family to keep a piece of incense." Emperor Chiding warned.
