Chapter 1138 The Person To Take Care Of Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven (2)
?
"Sisters-in-law?" Zhou Shu's gaze landed on Yin Wuyou and Lu Wenshuang.
He hadn't had time to interact with the two women after the series of events.
He looked at the two women, and a smile appeared on his face. If not for the fact that there were so many people here, he would have long pulled them into his arms.
"Wuyou, Little Lu, which one of you is interested?" Zhou Shu laughed.
"I'm not!" Both women simply shook their heads.
Mi Ziwen smiled. "Her Highness has been managing the Huaxia Pavilion all these years. From almost nothing, the Huaxia Pavilion now controls more than half of the divine weapons in the world. She's the most suitable person to take care of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven."
"Oh?" Zhou Shu looked at Yin Wuyou in surprise.
Yin Wuyou was a little embarrassed and annoyed. She placed her hand on Zhou Shu's waist and tugged hard.
This small action made the unfamiliar feeling he had disappear.
Zhou Shu smiled even more happily.
Back then, Yin Wuyou had been a carefree little princess. When she was the grand minister of Great Xia's Forging Division, she had managed the Forging Division into a mess because she didn't have any experience.
If not for Zhou Shu's appearance, Great Xia's Forging Division would have collapsed long ago.
Her personality had been a bit similar to Zhou Shu's. She didn't have the personality of a career woman.
He didn't expect her to have changed so much in the hundred years he was away. She had actually been managing the Huaxia Pavilion so well.
Thinking about it, he was touched. Why would Yin Wuyou do this? It must be for him.
He was the one who had established the Huaxia Pavilion. If not for this, she probably wouldn't have put in so much effort for the Huaxia Pavilion.
Thinking about how the Huaxia Pavilion had actually forged a weapon that could trap a Grotto-Heaven Master for ten breaths, one could imagine how much the Huaxia Pavilion had developed over the years.
"Wuyou, thank you for your hard work." Zhou Shu touched Yin Wuyou's cheek.
Yin Wuyou's pretty face instantly turned red, and tears began to well up in her eyes.
Previously, when she saw Zhou Shu, she hadn't cried. But now, she finally couldn't take it anymore.
A hundred years of grievances exploded in her heart. She wanted to throw herself into Zhou Shu's arms and cry.
Zhou Shu no longer cared about the presence of the crowd. He reached out and pulled Yin Wuyou into his arms, as well as Lu Wenshuang.
The others tacitly turned their heads away.
After a while, Zhou Shu finally comforted the two women.
"Wuyou, please take care of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven." Zhou Shu smiled. "This place will be our home in the future."
Zhou Shu said gently, "Mine, yours, and Little Lu's."
Yin Wuyou and Lu Wenshuang blushed and lowered their heads.
No one was surprised that Zhou Shu said the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven would be his home.
They had no objections at all.
Zhou Shu had conquered the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven, so it was his private property.
Not to mention the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven, even if it was Great Wei, as long as Zhou Shu was willing, he could immediately become the emperor of Great Wei.
Even Yang Hong wouldn't have any objections to this.
But even if they wanted this, Zhou Shu wouldn't be willing.
Previously, they had suggested Zhou Shu be the emperor, but he had rejected them.
They all knew that he wasn't someone who liked to be an emperor.
"In the future, our Great Wei will also have the support of the Grotto-Heavens," said Xiao Jianghe, who had been silent.
In a single sentence, he addressed all the hardships that everyone had experienced for the past few years.
Great Wei had always survived in the cracks. Not only did they not have the support of the Grotto-Heavens, but they were even targeted by Tang Qianluo and his cronies.
Over the years, they had used all means and risked their lives countless times to survive.
Now, there was finally hope.
"No," Zhou Shu said in a low voice. "We don't need the support of the Grotto-Heavens. We ourselves are a Grotto-Heaven.
"This world has been in chaos for long enough. Now is the time to clean up the world."
Although he had let Shang Qiuzi and the others go earlier, it didn't mean that he had changed his mind.
These Grotto-Heaven Masters were tyrannical and didn't take the lives of ordinary people seriously. Such people shouldn't exist in the world.
And the demonic beasts of the Demon Realm…!
Demonic beasts could exist, but they shouldn't be a reason for any chaos.
There were still great enemies in this world. Only when the world was harmonious could the power of the world grow. Only then could they fight against enemies from beyond the heavens.
Zhou Shu couldn't allow the world that the ancient races had sacrificed themselves to obtain to be ruined by these people!
"Your Highness, what do you mean?" Meng Bai looked at Zhou Shu in surprise.
Zhou Shu wasn't a combative person, but his words were brimming with killing intent.
Did he want to deal with the Demon Realm or the other Grotto-Heavens?
"The Grotto-Heavens can exist, but they shouldn't be above everyone else," Zhou Shu said. "Also, the problem of the Demon Realm has existed for too long. It's time to resolve it."
Zhou Shu spoke very calmly, but everyone became a little excited.
"Your Highness, I'm willing to be the vanguard!" Xiao Jianghe shouted.
"Old Xiao, let's go together," Sun Gongping said excitedly.
"Have you guys thought through this properly? You're fighting to be the vanguard without any preparations," Mi Ziwen said angrily. He has been a general for so many years, but he is still so impulsive.
In a military war, they had to make proper arrangements first.
Now that the enemy was unknown and the target was unknown, how could they possibly send out a vanguard?
"Your Highness, what are our strategic goals?" Mi Ziwen looked at Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu said, "They're very simple. Subdue the demonic beasts and unite the world."
"See? I knew we would have to fight them," Sun Gongping said proudly. "It's just beating the demonic beasts and the Grotto-Heavens until they listen to us. If anyone goes against us, beat them up."
"Isn't this what we used to be best at? Damn it. Those people are forcing us to protect themselves. I've had enough."
Sun Gongping cursed.
If it were him, he definitely wouldn't take it lying down. But he had countless brothers behind him. He couldn't bring these brothers into danger just because he was impulsive.
Over the years, he had compromised a lot.
"It's the world that's wrong, not us." Zhou Shu looked at everyone. "We no longer have to endure it. Our goal is to let this world return to the right path.
"We definitely have to fight. But Big Brother is right. We have to think about it at length.
"Although sacrifices are inevitable in war, the fewer our brothers die, the better.
"I haven't been around for more than a hundred years, so I'm not too sure about the current situation of the world."
Zhou Shu continued, "Therefore, we still have to work together to decide what to do and how to fight. If you have any suggestions, you can say them."
"This won't be easy." Meng Bai pondered and said, "Your Highness, please forgive me for being blunt. Whether it's the Demon Realm or the other Grotto-Heavens, if we rashly attack, we will probably be opposed.
"Those Grotto-Heavens only want to maintain the balance with the Demon Realm now. They won't watch us start a war with the Demon Realm.
"Moreover, the Grotto-Heavens are not so easy to deal with. Now, there are twelve Grotto-Heavens in the human race. Even without Tang Lan, there are still eleven Grotto-Heaven Masters…"
Meng Bai looked at Zhou Shu. He didn't know how many Grotto-Heaven Masters Zhou Shu could defeat with his current strength, but eleven should be a little difficult.
"Eleven Grotto-Heaven Masters…" Zhou Shu pondered. He really couldn't defeat eleven Grotto-Heaven Masters, but the possibility of the eleven Grotto-Heaven Masters attacking together wasn't high.
Zhou Shu frowned. "There are only eleven Grotto-Heavens left in the human race now? I remember that there were more than eleven back then."
"Although there were shameless people like Tang Lan and Tang Qianluo in the war more than a hundred years ago, there were still some true heroes in the Grotto-Heavens." Meng Bai sighed. "The Sima Grotto-Heaven was destroyed in the war."
