At this time, Holy Emperor Shura was attending the morning court, and Lord Lei Pun was waiting outside the palace.
There was another person waiting to be summoned at the same time as Mr. Lei Punishment, and that was a child riding a buffalo.
The child was wearing a shabby cotton-padded jacket and sitting on the back of a buffalo, looking like someone's unwanted child. There was nothing surprising about it.
Both of them were looking at each other, and neither of them spoke.
After a long time, a Shura woman ran out quickly and welcomed Lord Lei Punishment into the Shura Palace.
Holy Emperor Shura is an old man, in his sixties, with a fair face and no beard. He looks amiable. If you don't observe carefully, it would be difficult to find out that he is a Shura.
At this time, the other party was sitting above the hall, and below there stood a general in armor and an old man with a long beard.
"In the past year, Shura's population has increased by 300,000. According to the current population density, our place will be overcrowded in less than two years."
Holy Emperor Shura held something like a memorial, his brows furrowed together.
"Holy Emperor, I have a way to resolve this crisis."
Just when the Holy Emperor was thinking hard, Lei Punishment Lord walked in quickly from outside.
When they saw the person coming, the civil and military officials bowed slightly and saluted, as if they were a little afraid.
"Master Lei Punishment, what can you do? Let me tell you."
Holy Emperor Shura put down what he was holding, looked at the handsome man below and said with a smile.
"Start a war with Yangshi Xuanmen and let the old, weak, sick and disabled go to the battlefield. In this way, my Shura's blood can be replaced.
We Shura are famous for our wars. For nearly a thousand years, we have been in a corner and our military morale has been shattered. If this continues for a long time, I think the Shura clan will no longer have anyone to fight with."
Lord Lei Pun was neither humble nor arrogant. He raised his hands to Holy Emperor Shura and said something that shocked everyone here.
Holy Emperor Shura looked at Lord Lei Penalty, his expression a little unnatural, then he picked up the memorial and continued reading, while saying in a low voice:
"Tell me what's going on here, and we'll talk about the rest later."
Holy Emperor Shura attaches great importance to this young disciple below, but today he said something that made him a little disappointed.
Although war can stimulate fighting spirit, it is not a good idea to use your own people as cannon fodder.
"I am in charge of Thunder Punishment, and I found a Shura who practiced the Five Elements Corpse Pill in the Yang World.
In order to prevent Shura from causing trouble in the Yang world, I crossed the border and arrested him, but I didn't want to be captured by a Taoist general and all three thousand Shura troops were killed.
Although I didn't report it to Yangshi Tianxian, the situation was urgent and it was reasonable.
And I also know that Princess Shura asked us to send troops just for that Maoshan disciple and that Shura.
Although my move was reckless, I discovered that there were as many as five earthly immortals in a small Maoshan mountain.
Judging from the current scale of Yangshi, their strength has surpassed ours by a lot. If they are not checked and balanced, they will definitely pose a threat to our Shura clan in the future."
Lord Lei Pun spoke so eloquently that the superior Holy Emperor Shura frowned and couldn't help but put down his hand to approve the document again.
"Yang Shi and I, Shura, have always been friendly. You crossed the border and arrested me without the approval of Yang Shi Celestial Immortal. This has been wronged. Now you want to start a war. Doesn't this mean that our Shura clan is ungrateful?
Thousands of years ago, I, Asura, was forced by the demon clan to flee everywhere, so I had no choice but to invade Yangshi. Although both sides suffered, Yangshi ignored the past grudges and gave us a chance to breathe. If we invade Yangshi now, I am afraid we will become a laughing stock, so here we are.
Things aren’t working.”
After hearing the words of Holy Emperor Shura, Lord Lei Pun was not surprised at all. It seemed that everything was within his expectation.
"Holy Emperor, I, Shura, am not ungrateful. It's just that Taoist Yang Shi went too far. He killed three thousand Shura soldiers at once. This is a public provocation to our Shura clan. If we are not punished, we will definitely do more outrageous things in the future.
move."
"Holy Emperor, this is absolutely impossible. For thousands of years, I, Shura, and Yang Shi have lived in harmony and have not interfered with each other. We violated the covenant and crossed the line without communication. This has been exposed.
It would be unreasonable to rashly start a war at this time.
Moreover, it has been brewing for thousands of years in the Yang world, and the power of Xuanmen is not trivial. If it were to open a mountain, both sides would suffer.
Once we are defeated, the demon clan will break through the boundary to seize it, and the Yins will follow the water to get it. At that time, we will be attacked on three sides, besieged on all sides, and have no allies to help us."
The long-bearded old man gave the suggestion in a calm and unhurried manner after Lord Lei Pun finished speaking.
"Wise man, can we just swallow our anger and remain indifferent?"
After hearing the wise man's words, Lord Lei Pun finally became anxious.
Although he advocates going to war, he is also afraid of being surrounded on all sides. However, in his opinion, the demon clan is now in disarray and has no such ability.
The Yin Division has always been neutral and rarely interferes with foreign affairs, so it is unlikely.
"Lord Lei Punishment, if there is a war, there will be wailing in all directions. It is not the gain or loss of one person or one city. If you are not careful, it will bring disaster to the clan. Such consequences are not something we can afford."
Although the old man called the wise man is afraid of Lord Lei Pun, he still has to make it clear on this matter, otherwise the name of the wise man will be in vain.
"Well, what the wise man said makes sense. It is indeed not easy to start a war with Yang Shi. It is better to think about it in the long term."
Holy Emperor Shura nodded, and finally there was a smile on his serious face, as if he was satisfied with what the wise man said.
"Holy Emperor, although our attack on Yangshi was unjustified, the demon clan is now in disarray. Why don't we take revenge for a thousand years.
If we can unify the demon world, our territory can be expanded and our soldiers can be trained, otherwise the Shura clan will always live in the shadow of being massacred."
The first plan is different, so Lei Punjun can only propose the second plan.
This time, Holy Emperor Shura did not rush to deny, but squinted his eyes, and then said with a solemn expression.
"This matter can be discussed. You go back first, prepare your soldiers, and obey orders at any time."
There is kindness in this world, and if the kindness is repaid, it will not be tolerated by heaven.
But there is a grudge against the demon clan, and the enemy is now in disarray. If we can defeat them one by one, we can avenge them for a thousand years, and expand their territory and boost the morale of the army.
Therefore, attacking the demon clan is actually what the Holy Emperor Shura has wanted to do for a long time.
Seeing Holy Emperor Shura nodding, Lord Lei Punishment immediately showed joy, then he cupped his hands and quickly retreated.
After Mr. Lei Pun left, the general who had been silent until now stepped forward and said:
"Holy Emperor, Mr. Lei Punishment is too extreme. My military report said that he wanted to go to war with Yang Shi to avenge his personal vengeance.
Recently, there was a new immortal named Xiao Yu in Yangshi, who met the lady. He may have mistakenly thought that he was the lady's admirer, so he wanted to kill him."
The armor-clad general stepped forward and added.
"Well, I also know about this. Yang Shilai's envoy is outside. Let's hear what he has to say first."
Holy Emperor Shura waved his hand, and a maid hurriedly walked out and shouted outside.
Not long after, a little girl and a big man in black walked in from outside. These two people were the guardian envoys who had met Xiao Yu when they went to Maoshan.
