Li Hong had already determined Wang Shuo's intention in his heart. It was simply because the battle between the two forces consumed too many resources and he was afraid of shaking the foundation.
So I used an ancient magic weapon to exchange the opportunity for the Tang Dynasty to take action.
But what Wang Shuo said next stunned everyone.
"I hope to use this thing in exchange for a place to climb the Tianlei Tower." Wang Shuo's voice was neither salty nor light.
But Li Hong was just stunned on the spot, using such a precious thing in exchange for a place to climb the tower? Is this too much fuss?
Although the Tianlei Pagoda only allows a limited number of people from the Tang Dynasty to go up, Wang Shuo is the marshal of the heaven after all. If he sounds good and has enough etiquette to come to ask for help, maybe it is not impossible to give him a try.
But this person not only has no etiquette when he comes to visit, but also has no sense of dignity. He uses an ancient magic weapon in exchange for the opportunity to climb the tower. Is this person a fool?
"Okay, or not?" This was Wang Shuo's last question. If the other party said no, he could only use force.
"Haha, you are really young and promising. We can't keep up with the ideas of young people. But since you want to change, with our relationship between the Tang Kingdom and the Holy Court, there is no reason to reject you." Li Hong said.
"So, you agreed?" Wang Shuo asked.
"Of course, General Huang, you go out and make arrangements. We, the Tang Dynasty, will accept this heavy sword. When the marshal returns, remember to say hello to the empress for me," Li Hong said.
"Um."
Wang Shuo nodded and threw the heavy knife over. Li Hong caught it with one hand and quickly put it on the table regardless of his identity, then stood up and watched.
He had only seen complete ancient magical artifacts in records.
The big bell on the Tianlei Tower is no longer complete, but an incomplete magic weapon, so it does not count.
The blue-armored general who just spoke glanced at Wang Shuo, made a gesture of invitation and said: "Please follow me out, I will take you to Tianlei Tower."
Wang Shuo then followed the blue-armored general and walked out.
After he left, the room became quiet again.
The remaining four generals, as well as the python-robed prince, all walked up and stared at the heavy black knife on the table, swallowing subconsciously.
It was also the first time that they saw a complete ancient magic weapon. They wanted it in their hearts, but they didn't dare to ask.
If this thing fell into Li Hong's hands, he would naturally not give it to them.
"Your Majesty!" When Li Macro was admiring the sword, the python-robed prince frowned and said, "Are you going to let that kid go to the Thunder Tower like this? What if he goes for the big bell..."
Having said this, Prince Mangpao stopped talking.
But the meaning is already obvious. The other party brought the ancient magic weapon here. It cannot be just for visiting. There must be some conspiracy. Apart from the big bell on the Tianlei Tower, this conspiracy seems to be nothing else.
"Haha, the big bell is broken. Although it is an ancient magic weapon, it has been damaged after all. This heavy sword is still intact, so it is not a loss even if it is given to him." A red-armored general said.
But the python-robed prince shook his head: "Although what you said is true, ancient magic weapons also have strengths and weaknesses. I suspect that the big bell on our Tianlei Tower is several levels higher than this heavy sword, otherwise
How can a person who can become the marshal of the Tianhe navy be a fool? Are you willing to use an ancient magic weapon in exchange for a chance to climb the tower?"
This statement once again stunned everyone. Yes, how could a person who could become a marshal be a fool? Using an ancient magic weapon in exchange for the opportunity to climb the tower, I'm afraid it's not easy for them to use the big clock on the Tianlei Tower.
"But I just felt that that kid is at the early stage of a quasi-sage. He is not as good as me. I don't know if he can climb the tower. He might not even be able to climb to the ninety-eighth floor, let alone pick up the big clock.
"Yes." Red-armored General.
The python-robed prince laughed dumbly: "Otherwise, since people dare to come, they must be well prepared, otherwise they would not act rashly. I think this person is here for the big clock."
The red-armored general wanted to say something else, but Li Hong stretched out his hand to stop him.
After a while, Li Hong lifted up the sleeves of his golden dragon robe and said with a gloomy expression: "Go and send someone to look at it. No matter why he came, the big bell on the Heavenly Thunder Tower is the national treasure of our Tang Dynasty Kingdom."
, there is no room for error, if he really takes it down. Humph, you go up together, he is only in the early stage of quasi-sage and can be easily subdued. By then, won't this national treasure be back in our hands?"
"Your Majesty is wise! Not only will the national treasure be taken down, but also an ancient magic weapon will be obtained for free. If we add the big bell and have these two treasures, Confucianism and heaven will no longer be our opponents!" the python-robed prince complimented.
A group of people also left the study under Li Hong's arrangement.
Li Hong was left alone, holding the sword and showing a cold smile.

…………
Here, Wang Shuo, led by General Lan Jia, came to a heavily guarded area. In the center of this area was a huge tower that reached straight to the sky and towered into the clouds.
The top of the tower exudes colorful luster, lighting up the night and shining like a miniature sun.
General Lan Jia pointed at the tower and said: "This is the national tower of our Tang Dynasty Kingdom, Tianlei Tower. So far, the only people who can climb to the top of the ninety-nine-story tower are the five generals and Prince Li who were present just now.
Be careful yourself."
"Oh?" Wang Shuo touched his chin and walked towards the tower.
General Lan Jia followed closely behind and came to the foot of the tower.
Looking at the tower, Wang Shuo walked to the door in a few steps, and immediately felt an invisible pressure hanging over him.
This pressure is not very strong, perhaps because it is still at the bottom of the tower.
Under the gaze of General Lan Jia, Wang Shuo finally walked up to the tower without looking back.
As he climbed up to the Tianlei Tower, many people came one after another behind General Lan Jia.
The leader among them was none other than Prince Mangpao and the remaining four generals.
They looked at the tower with a little disapproval on their faces. To be honest, they didn't really believe that Wang Shuo could climb to the top of the tower or even take down the big bell.
The reason why I said this in front of the emperor just now was just in case.
But the chance of this happening was too small and pitiful, so they just stood together, glanced at the tower nonchalantly, and each found a place to sit down.
On the first floor, Wang Shuo stood in the center of the tower. The oppression around him was weak and pitiful.
He shook his head and continued going up.
The second layer is the same as the first layer, there is no difference at all.
The third, fourth, and fifth floors are still the same...
It wasn't until we reached the tenth floor that the pressure gradually became stronger.
But they are just some. Wang Shuo, who has become a quasi-sage with his strength, how abnormal is his body? This little pressure is simply pitiful to him.
And his speed became faster and faster, and his climbing speed became more and more astonishing.
Whenever he goes up to a certain floor of the tower, the tower on that floor will light up.
Looking up from below, you can see that the tower lights up at an alarming rate.
Even the five generals of the Tang Dynasty and even the python-robed prince were less than one thousandth of that.
The expressions of the prince and the five generals gradually became shocked...
