This battle with the Tianhun Empire has fully proved that the Sun and Moon Empire definitely has this strength.
Maybe……
If Shrek Academy had not been destroyed, with their strength there would still be a slight possibility of resisting the Sun and Moon Empire's Soul Guide Army.
But at this stage, the Sun and Moon Soul Guide Army is invincible and cannot be shaken by anyone.
They would either resist the Sun and Moon Empire like Wei Lin, and eventually be beaten into the imperial city and ousted from the throne.
Either you can join the Sun and Moon Empire like Vitus and continue to be an emperor.
These are the only two options before them.
But no matter which choice it is, it is difficult for Xu Jiawei and Xue Yuanlin to accept.
They are not the lucky ones like Vitus who got the throne for free. Maybe if the Sun and Moon Empire didn't come, he would have been an unknown prince in his life. Naturally, he would be happy with his status as a puppet emperor and would have no grudges.
They are real emperors who control the life and death of millions of people. How could they be willing to succumb to others and become humiliating puppet emperors?
However, the powerful strength displayed by the Sun and Moon Empire has exceeded their understanding. It has even made them feel powerless. There is an insurmountable gap.
The deaths of Poison and Wei Lin serve as lessons from the past.
In the end, the person dies, the throne is gone, and the reputation is ruined. All the honors and efforts made during and after life are wiped out and reduced to nothing. Even in the end, even after death, you still have to bear the infamy.
In exchange for such a desolate ending, the Sun and Moon Empire chose a new emperor, and everything seemed as if nothing had happened. Their sacrifices had no meaning.
Xu Jiawei is not afraid of death, and it is not a bad idea to commit suicide. But it is pointless to fight and it is undoubtedly stupid.
They only got the so-called dignity. They spent their lives, wealth, power, status, reputation... everything in exchange for a sad dignity.
Compared to the former, it was even more difficult for him to accept.
…
…
After a while.
"What are your conditions?"
Xu Jiawei took a deep breath and looked sad.
Eventually, people have to bow their heads under the eaves.
There is no point in delaying time like this. Since the Sun and Moon Empire has now shown their fangs, it is better to get straight to the point of negotiation and strive for more benefits for the Star Luo Empire than to be beaten.
The corners of Su Luoheng's mouth curved.
All the foreshadowing is for this sentence.
As long as Xu Jiawei and Xue Yuanlin open this mouth, it proves that they have shown signs of compromise. No matter what plan they have, as long as they have this idea, things will be much easier to handle.
"The Star Luo Empire, Dou Ling Empire, and Tianhun Empire can continue to maintain their independence and retain part of their military strength. However, changes in finance, military, throne changes, etc. must be approved by the Sun and Moon Empire."
"In addition, starting today, the three countries must lift all border blockades and allow people from the four countries to travel freely. They can communicate with each other, help each other, and jointly resist foreign aggression."
"..."
Su Luoheng spoke calmly and put forward the conditions one by one.
The requirements are concise and unambiguous. The attitude is clear and non-negotiable. There is no room for bargaining.
These requirements are quite demanding for a sovereign empire.
After hearing this, Xu Jiawei and Xue Yuanlin looked gloomy and frowned slightly.
Are we fighting against foreign aggression together? Your Sun-Moon Empire is the one who is aggressing, right? Why do you have the nerve to say this?
However, I can only think about these words in my heart and never dare to say them in front of Su Luoheng.
Again, the Sun and Moon Empire is too powerful.
They really want to refuse, but they are unable to do so.
Because they know that this is the only way so far to prevent the Sun and Moon Empire from starting another war.
if not……
"The Heavenly Soul Empire agrees."
Vitus immediately expressed his position. He knew his position very well. As a puppet emperor supported by the Sun and Moon Empire, he had no foundation in the Tianhun Empire, so he naturally had to clarify his position.
Furthermore, didn't Yuki Yuan Rin mock him for not being worthy of the throne? Now that everyone has become a vassal of the Sun and Moon Empire, who is nobler than whom? He, who was the first to turn from darkness to light, might be able to go one step further~
When Su Luoheng heard this, he nodded slightly.
"Where are you two?"
As he spoke, his eyes were fixed on Xu Jiawei and Xue Yuanlin.
"this……"
Xu Jiawei and Xue Yuanlin looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes.
"Marshal Su, this matter is really important. It will determine the structure of the Star Luo Empire and even the Douluo Continent in the future. Please give us some time to think about it." Xu Jiawei thought for a moment and spoke slowly.
"Okay, I'll give you three days to think about it. If you two still can't think clearly by then, I believe there are many people in Dou Ling Empire and Star Luo Empire who are willing to accept it."
"You two, please think carefully."
After saying that, Su Luoheng turned around and left without stopping.
Waiters then left the game, and before going out, he gave Rin Yuki a provocative smile.
Watching Su Luoheng leave, Xu Jiawei and Xue Yuanlin remained silent for a long time until they disappeared from sight.
This feeling made the two empire rulers extremely aggrieved.
It's not that they can't see clearly the current situation. But they do understand that they are all kings of a country. Now they are asked to humble themselves and be small in front of the Sun and Moon Empire. How can they adapt so quickly.
I need to give some buffer time, right?
In addition, the conditions proposed by the Sun and Moon Empire are too harsh, especially in terms of military power. Once agreed, Xingluo and Douling Empire will be meat on the chopping board, ready to be slaughtered by anyone.
But in this case, what other choice is there? If you don't agree, I'm afraid you won't even have a chance to eat.
Everything is fate, nothing is up to you...
After a long while, Xu Jiawei let out a long sigh.
In fact, three days can't change anything at all. They just used these three days of struggle to give themselves and the empire behind them an explanation. At least they also fought...
…
…
Three days later.
It's still the same room, the same four people, the same location, but the atmosphere is completely different at the moment.
Xu Jiawei and Xue Yuanlin sat upright, with solemn expressions on their faces.
Vitus, however, was in high spirits and glanced sideways at Xueyuan Rin, his eyes flashing with sarcasm.
Su Luoheng glanced at the two of them and tapped his fingers on the table. An indifferent voice sounded: "The time has come. Have you two thought clearly now?"
Xu Jiawei and Xue Yuanlin exchanged a look.
He took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and looked up at Su Luoheng.
"Marshal Su, if we agree to your conditions, how can you guarantee that you will abide by your promise and not violate this agreement and invade the territories of the Star Luo Empire and the Douling Empire?"
This is what Xu Jiawei and Xue Yuanlin are most worried about.
How can we ensure that after losing military power and opening the border, the Sun and Moon Empire will not send troops to them?
