Capítulo 1176: Chapter 1177: The Boundary Country Great Emperor
The Sixth Prince of the Four-Eyed Spirit Clan probably never imagined that no matter what he did, his beloved grandson had to die.
Because he invaded the territory of the Huaxia Empire, slaughtered the Human Clan, and showed disrespect towards Lin Qian, even attempting regicide!
Just these few things were enough to deem him unforgivable and unable to continue living.
On the Sixth Prince’s side, all ans have already been deployed to deliver the materials requested by the Human Clan to them as quickly as possible.
Furthermore, on the side of the Sixth Prince, there was a belief that the Human Clan was discussing their next steps for escape.
However, they could never imagine that the Human Clan was using the resources provided to fully develop their own territory.
Thanks to the massive Soul Crystals and nurous Cloud Boats provided by the other party.
After slight modifications, these Cloud Boats could et the conditions for aviation Cloud Boats, used for operations and transportation across the Star Domain or Stars, perfecting the Transportation Departnt of this Star Domain, saving a great deal of ti and cost.
Just as Han Xin had foreseen, in the process of collecting materials, substantial ti was spent.
Figures at the level of the Sixth Prince, any significant actions naturally could not be concealed from others.
Moreover, the massive resource collection by the Sixth Prince this ti was involving so many places and utilizing so many connections that it beca a sensational topic, well-known in Beixuan Heaven.
Such a matter even drew the curiosity of the current Boundary Country Emperor, who asked the clan uncle serving as minister: “What has Liu been up to lately?”
At this mont, the minister also chuckled: “Emperor, in Liu’s territory, there is a small group of the Human Clan, I don’t know if you’re aware of it.”
“Uncle, of course, I am aware. It seems that in our Daojiang Country, there’s only this small group of the Human Clan, isn’t there?” The current emperor replied with amusent, walking to the window, hands clasped behind his back, “Why, have these Humans rioted?”
“Indeed, and they’ve even captured Liu’s precious grandson, proposing certain conditions, gathering such a myriad of peculiar materials, presumably for that reason,” the minister echoed, clarifying the situation.
The current emperor stood by the window in silence for a mont, then looked in the minister’s direction: “Can the list of those materials be obtained?”
The minister nodded, producing a list in his hand: “Here, is the list of materials Liu collected at the other party’s request, which took nearly five years to gather.”
The current emperor nodded, with a slight hand gesture, moved the list of condensed soul energy from the minister’s hand to his front, slowly reading it.
And at this ti, the minister standing beside him continued, “This matter has beco a sensation in all of Beixuan Heaven, with so betting on whether Liu’s precious grandson will be safely returned.”
“And betting on whether this Human Clan can escape the clutches of the Sixth Prince.”
“Not to ntion, the people in Beixuan Heaven, who have nothing better to do, are watching this closely. But those Humans are likely aware that even releasing the Young Prince, they’re still unlikely to escape death, so the conditions are a preparation for escape.”
The current emperor nodded privately, speaking to himself: “Liu dotes on his son, and this precious grandson is even more cherished than his own son. Agreeing to these Human Clan’s conditions is reasonable.”
“But the conditions for collecting materials proposed by the opposing side are very strange.” The current emperor gazing at the contents of the list, suddenly said after a long pause, “If these Humans want to escape, they should be heading east, but what do they need these materials for?”
“Among them, there’s not only materials for Alchemy or Artifact Refining but even so materials needed for building residences.” The current emperor said playfully, looking at the list of soul energy condensation before him, “Uncle, doesn’t this seem odd to you?”
The minister pondered for a mont before slowly speaking: “Perhaps they think that obtaining materials on the way out won’t be easy, which is why they demanded this.”
“Although there’s not much of each type of material on the list, when combined, it’s still a lot, and many things aren’t necessary for escape.”
“If they were truly escaping, they should be running as fast and far as possible, to the eastern depths for a slim chance of survival. But why ask for materials to build houses on this list?”
“Are they planning to build houses while fleeing? Furthermore, for the Human Clan to build houses, they only need Spirit Wood and so Soul Ore scrap stone blocks, easily obtainable in a safe place during their escape.”
The current emperor’s words made the minister thoughtful, a glint appearing in his eyes: “Emperor, I understand your aning. These Humans don’t need these materials but are asking for them regardless.”
“They don’t need them, yet they’re asking. Additionally, there’s a characteristic to this list: the variety of materials is vast, distributed across Beixuan Heaven and even so from the surrounding Heavenly Domain, which are local specialties!”
“It gives the impression that the other party is deliberately using the collection of these materials to stall for ti.”
“Stalling for ti?” The minister slightly shook his head, looking at the emperor before him, “But what use is there for the Human Clan to stall? Whether they escape today or tomorrow, what difference does it make?”
“Moreover, the two families in the east are so far from us, it’s impossible to stall for ti awaiting their rescue. They might accept the Human Clan but won’t actively extend their hand to assist such a small distant group.”
The current emperor nodded, looking at the minister before him: “True, those two families in the east certainly wouldn’t actively reach out to help. But suppose, these Humans never intended to run but only to stall for ti, wouldn’t this list of collected materials no longer be surprising?”
“Regarding the conditions listed above, the last one, these Humans must not be fools. Even if allowed to flee for three or ten years, they certainly couldn’t get away.”
“After all, their location is on the southernmost edge of one of the two realms of our Daojiang Country, impossible to escape north, and west is still within our territory. The two realms south and east belong to the Jinshi Clan, our steadfast allies.”
“So, they should understand that they can’t escape, and the last condition really seems like they’re stalling for ti…”
Upon saying this, the current emperor fell silent for a long ti, his expression suddenly turned cold, and he abruptly spoke: “Send a communication to Liu, inform him of my hypothesis, and advise him to be cautious, there could be sothing strange with the Human Clan within this territory!”
