Clearly, the Xia’s Empress has also realized that the more time Xia Country gives to Yan Country, the more disadvantageous it is for Xia Country.

She wants to make a swift decision, cutting the Gordian knot.

But Yan Country is not to be trifixed with either.

Zhao Huai said gravely, “Prepare for war, focus on defense. After a year of development, although Yan Country’s national strength has somewhat recovered, it’s mainly in other areas. When it comes to military power, it’s still rather weak. ”

A year’s time doesn’t produce much population.

Wars have always been a battle for population. Yan Country wanting to actively attack a fully armed Xia Country is still too difficult. They can only resort to passive defense.

Off to the side, when Princess Luo Ya of Shenluo saw the changing expressions on Zhao Huai’s face, she guessed what was happening, and suggested:

“The Royal Crown Prince might as well give a specific timeline, I will come then. That is if Your Highness has really made up your mind. My Shenluo Kingdom is sincere. After all, we’re no longer the three kingdoms of a decade ago. Under the reign of the current King of Shenluo, Diluo Country and Tianluo have already been declining, dying echoes.”

When Princess Luo Ya said this, it was as if she was making one last persuasion, laying out the situation in the Western State.

“Could it be that the King of Shenluo has reclaimed and unified Western State?” Zhao Huai said, slightly astonished.

Bear in mind, there are many small countries in Western State. Any random mountain you pass could be another country.

Although they are weak, they are not to be underestimated.

Although a unifying war is simple, correspondingly, conflicts are also large-scale. With numerous countries and rampant cults, differing beliefs are extremely difficult to reconcile.

Even if the territory is taken, a few years later, it may secede again. Once secession occurres, it’s a mass of countries. Furthermore, it’s during the kingdom’s weakest time. Anyone would be powerless in this situation.

The Princess of Shenluo shook her head slightly in response, “Not quite so. It’s just that Shenluo Kingdom has now absorbed Tianluo’s territory, and expelled Diluo Country from Brahma Mountain. The whole of Western State is now under the say of Shenluo Kingdom. Therefore, I can tell Your Highness with certainty, cooperation with Shenluo will absolutely not put you at a disadvantage.”

After listening, Zhao Huai now had a clearer understanding of Western State, but his decision hadn’t changed.

“Thank you for the princess’s good intentions. I will consider them carefully. In seven days, I will definitely give the princess an answer. Song Zhishu, you take the princess to her accommodations first.”

Zhao Huai looked at Song Zhishu with a telling gaze.

‘Yes.”

Upon receiving the command, Song Zhishu bowed slightly, and said to Princess Luo Ya and Wen Xiang Bodhisattva:

“Princess and Bodhisattva, please follow me.”

Seeing that Zhao Huai was unmoved, Princess Shenluo looked at him deeply, but she could do nothing. She could only follow behind Song Zhishu and left the living room.

Zhao Huai didn’t linger in the living room, but went to the corridor and nonrnhlpd tn hinncplf IAThilp wnllcino•

“The present Xia Country is completely different from what was envisioned. A dying centipede still wriggles. Facing Xia Country that has lost half its territory, is storm-tossed and tilting dangerously, can the tide still be turned and resolved in just one fight. What is this empress really like?”

Thinking about it, his curiosity about this hidden woman who’s known as the ‘Human-Butchering Demoness’ grew.

She bears such a magnificent aura. No wonder she can be an empress.

Speaking of which, her temperament does bear some similarity to Madam’s.

In front of major matters, Madam is also very decisive, not dragging her feet.

Upon closer consideration, there seems to be a link.

But in other aspects, they are dissimilar. This Empress of Xia Country seems to be a person who will stop at nothing. Although Madam usually wears a stern face, her bargaining power in the market makes even vendors back off. But in her heart, she’s an extremely kind person.

The two have fundamentally different natures.

Ending his brainstorming, Zhao Huai decided to go for a stroll on the streets.

He’d been in seclusion for a year and barely left Yan Tang Manor.

Walking on the streets and experiencing the smoke of worldly life is also excellent, and beneficial to his cultivation.

In this world, besides the dry cultivation, there’s also a quiet life that’s full of warmth and noise.

After a round on the streets, Zhao Huai found that Nanyu Prefecture was more prosperous than a year ago.

If not for war, Nanyu Prefecture might be a state so wealthy it could rival a country.

This is not an exaggeration. Nanyu Prefecture is located in the center of commercial trade, serving as the essential passageway connecting the inland and the East Sea. Just from the commercial tax collected each year can feed most states and prefectures.

Suddenly, Zhao Huai, with his hands clasped behind his back, saw a whiff of red smoke curling up in front of him.

He paused for a moment, stopped, and looked around.

He saw that, on the faces of all people on the streets, there was a wisp of red smoke!

Red, it represents the Calamity of Bloodshed!

Following that, the rising red qi coalesced into a scene.

There was rampant evil qi. Blood was flowing like a stream.

“Not good…”

Zhao Huai’s gaze condensed, and he felt an intense coldness behind him.

At that instant.

A blue long sword appeared in Zhao Huai’s palm. Amidst his side shift, he unleashed a stroke.

This sword, its qi like a flood dragon, contained unparalleled sword edge, striking towards the figure behind him.

“Clang! ”

The sound of a sword chimed, just as a purple feather collided with it. The purple feather was wreathed in vast evil qi. It was a demon feather.

“Boom!”

A huge wave of air exploded from the two parties and tossed a large number of dead leaves into the air.

With his single hand wrapped around his sword, and the sword edge turning horizontally from a vertical position, Zhao Huai infused his nurturing sword qi into the long sword.

In an instant, the white sword radiance flickered and disappeared.

“Whish!”

The entire street was split apart by the sword qi, turning into ruins, leaving a deep gash on the ground..
