The Star King, wearing a sun and moon gown, sat on the bank of a clear lake, his slender body as straight as a sharp sword.
Beside him were two old men wearing crimson robes, Luo Baichuan, the lord of the lunar star, and Ji Zhen, the lord of the sun star.
At this time, Star King was holding a letter in his hand, and his expression was a little surprised and a little strange.
"His Majesty Li Huang is really~~"
The letter was from Qin Wei, and the content stated the cordial relationship between Dali and the Baixing Dynasty.
But after Star King read the letter, he didn't know how to describe it for a while.
"What is it really?" Luo Baichuan asked curiously, stroking his beard.
Star King smacked his lips, thought for a while, and then said: "It's really unexpected!"
With that said, he handed the letter to Luo Baichuan. Luo Baichuan was stunned after reading it, and then handed the letter to Ji Zhen next to him.
"Haha, this Emperor Li is unexpectedly wise!" Ji Zhen said with a chuckle.
Star Emperor pondered for a moment and said: "Yes, if you can resist the temptation of the Giant Spirit Dynasty and stick to your beliefs, Emperor Li can see more clearly than me!"
"But why did he refuse our kindness?" Luo Baichuan asked doubtfully.
"That's not rejection, but sincerity to us! The country of brothers!" Star King sighed softly.
Qin Weixin only stated two things. The first is that he will reject the Juling Dynasty. No matter what conditions the Juling Dynasty proposes, he will reject it.
The second was rejecting the good intentions of the Baixing Dynasty. To be precise, it should be the price paid by the Baixing Dynasty to win over Dali.
He described the close relationship between Dali and the Baixing Dynasty as a country of brothers, and the price he paid for giving up the Baixing Dynasty to show his sincerity.
To be honest, after reading Qin Wei's letter, Star King was quite moved.
It is so rare to be able to give up immediate interests and insist on puzzling beliefs, and such an emperor is rare in the world.
However, Ji Zhen could see some of Qin Wei's thoughts and said: "The Emperor Li made this choice because he probably wants to rely on us to fight against the Giant Spirit Dynasty!"
"We need Dali, and Dali needs us!"
This is obvious. If the Giant Spirit Dynasty can suppress the Hundred Stars Dynasty now, it can also suppress the Dali Dynasty in the future.
It is impossible for Qin Wei to keep Dali trapped in the Yuluo Sea. Sooner or later, he will let Dali walk out of the Yuluo Sea and head towards the east of the Qiongtian Sea.
Since Dali wants to leave the Yuluo Sea, he will have to face the Giant Spirit Dynasty sooner or later.
If Dali breaks up with the Baixing Dynasty, he may gain a lot of benefits in a short period of time, but in the long run, Dali needs the Baixing Dynasty as an ally.
Ji Zhen had never met Qin Wei, but from the letters written by Qin Wei, he knew that Qin Wei, the Li Emperor, was definitely an emperor who did not dare to be lonely.
It's not that the Star King didn't understand this, but he was still moved by it.
He waved his hand and said: "No matter what the purpose is for him to make such a choice, this is a rare sincerity for us!"
"Maybe Dali will need us in the future, but now we need Dali even more!"
"So~~"
Star King chuckled and said: "So I recognize Emperor Li as my brother!"
"A country of brothers should be called brothers. From now on, Emperor Li is my imperial brother, and I am Emperor Li's imperial brother!"
"As an elder brother, how could I let down the emperor's younger brother?"
"We will double the things we promised before and send them to Emperor Li. Also, doesn't Dali need an array master? Let Lu Nan stay in Dali for a few years!"
Lu Nan is one of the Nine Yao Star Lords, Jidu Star Master, and is also the most powerful formation master in the Hundred Stars Dynasty. According to Dali's formation master level, Lu Nan can be rated as a fifth-level formation master, even higher than Xiao Yicai.
One level higher.
Of course, there are currently no fifth-level formation masters in the Dali Formation Masters Association. Xiao Yicai was rated as fourth-level master simply because the highest rank he currently has in the formation masters association is fourth-level.
In terms of formation ability, Xiao Yicai now definitely surpasses Lu Nan.
"Isn't this too much!" Luo Baichuan said in surprise.
"Haha~ Just do as I tell you!" Star King laughed.
Have you passed?
How could it be?
At this time, Star Emperor knew very well that he was very touched by Qin Wei's attitude, but he was an emperor after all, and his own will could not be affected by just a few words.
The reason why he did this was to let everyone know that Baixing Dynasty and Dali were very close, as close as brothers.
Ji Zhen next to him smiled and said nothing, while Luo Baichuan was a little confused.
In terms of the overall situation, Luo Baichuan is not as good as Ji Zhen. Ji Zhen is the Star Emperor's number one adviser, while Luo Baichuan is the Star Emperor's number one general.
The two of them, one civilized and one martial, are the two pillars of the Hundred Star Imperial City, just like Yan Zhen and Li Xun of Dali back then.
…
Star King's words quickly reached Qin Wei's ears, not just to Qin Wei's ears, but also spread throughout the Yuluo Sea Area.
Star Emperor and Li Emperor were called brothers, which surprised many people in Yuluo Sea for a while.
In just a few days, this matter became a topic of discussion for many people after dinner.
Even Ice and Snow Island heard about this.
But when Qin Wei understood this, he smiled bitterly.
In the royal study.
Xiao Shunzi looked at Qin Wei's expression and asked in confusion: "Your Majesty, this matter should be a good thing for me, Dali. Why does your Majesty have such an expression?"
In his opinion, this time the Baixing Dynasty not only gave things to people, but also showed its relationship with Dali, which should be of no harm to Dali.
Qin Wei shook his head and said: "You only see the benefits, but you don't see the pit that Star King dug for us."
"The Kingdom of Brothers is just a joke. He has made this matter known to everyone. The only way is to let the Giant Spirit Dynasty know that we, Dali, and the Hundred Stars Dynasty are already tied together!"
It was a joke that everyone knew, and this must have been deliberately done by the Star King.
The purpose is to completely stop the Giant Spirit Dynasty from trying to win over Dali.
Qin Wei did not expect that Star King would do such a thing.
"Is that bad for us?" Xiao Shunzi asked.
Qin Wei chuckled lightly and said: "There is no harm!"
Although Star King's actions were somewhat beyond his expectations, this incident did not bring any harm to Dali.
On the contrary, Dali can benefit a lot from the efforts of the Hundred Stars Dynasty.
"The country of brothers is the country of brothers. Tell the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple that I recognize this royal brother, and ask them to contact the Baixing Dynasty to see if anything needs to be done."
The two emperors becoming brothers is naturally not a trivial matter, and naturally requires some complicated procedures.
Qin Wei didn't want to worry about the specifics, so he just let the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple discuss it.
"By the way, tell the Ministry of Industry and ask them to send a hundred Giant Scorpion IIs to the Hundred Star Dynasty!" Qin Wei ordered again.
The Hundred Stars Dynasty sent such a big gift, so Dali naturally wanted a big gift in return.
The only thing that Dali can do is the mechanism technique, but the Hundred Stars Dynasty has bought the mechanism technique from Dali before, and Qin Wei can't give it to them for free.
But it is still okay to give them some Giant Scorpion II. With the capabilities of the Hundred Star Dynasty, it is estimated that it will take several years to make the Giant Scorpion II.
Now give them some Giant Scorpion II so that they can prospect for minerals on the seabed in advance. I believe they will happily accept it.
…
Burning Sky Island.
On the tower that towered into the clouds, Heiyuan stood on the terrace, overlooking the distant sea with a solemn expression.
In just over ten days, the east-route army of the Sky Alliance broke through the layers of obstacles he had arranged and arrived outside Burning Sky Island.
You must know that in order to delay the arrival of the eastern army on Fentian Island, he spent a lot of thought and used almost all available methods.
They did everything they could to harass, sneak attack, ambush, etc. However, the East Route Army of the Sky Alliance was like a fool, rushing towards Burning Sky Island regardless of the situation.
This made Heiyuan feel very depressed.
"How much time do we need?" he asked in a low voice.
"Seven days!"
The Blood Demon Cultist standing behind him replied.
Heiyuan's face darkened, "We don't have seven days left. The Sky League's army is outside the island. They can't possibly give me seven days!"
The blood demon cultivator's pale face froze slightly, but he still said: "Sir, the Burning Sky Formation needs to connect to the earth's veins, and seven days is already our fastest speed."
"Then can the formation be simplified?" Heiyuan asked.
During the Burning Sky Formation, he had the most important trump card against the Sky Alliance. Without this trump card, he didn't even know if he could defeat the Sky Alliance.
But setting up the Burning Heaven Formation takes time, and what he lacks most now is time.
"This!!" The Blood Demon Cultist hesitated for a moment and said: "It can be simplified, but the power will be much less after simplification!"
"Then simplify it! Less power is better than nothing! We don't have time!"
Heiyuan said in a deep voice.
"Here!" The Blood Demon cultist lowered his head and responded, and could only follow Hei Yuan's order.
Heiyuan asked again: "What's going on over at Yuehai Island?"
Several Blood Demon cultists looked at each other in confusion, and it took a long time for one of them to speak: "We are retreating steadily!"
"Although the Sky Alliance's army has still arrived at Moon Sea Island, it is estimated that they will reach beyond Moon Sea Island in just a few days."
The current situation is extremely unfavorable for them.
Their side has been beaten to the doorstep by the Sky Alliance, and the situation is similar on the Moon Sea Island side.
As for the other forces, their victory or defeat is not the key. Even if those forces can persevere and Fentian Island and Yuehai Island are defeated, those forces will be unable to recover.
Heiyuan took a deep breath, and his expression became more and more serious.
"Get ready, we can't retreat from this battle!"
Several Blood Demon cultists responded in unison: "Here!"
After that, he left the terrace one after another, leaving Heiyuan to look at the dark clouds composed of warships on the sea in the distance.
In fact, they can retreat and leave Fentian Island.
After all, they are Blood Demon Cultists, and Burning Sky Island is just a station for them. They can change a station like this at any time.
But there are people who need them to occupy Fentian Island, and they also need them to stay in the spiritual sea.
