"Can't hold back anymore?" Upon hearing Lin Qian's words, the three present didn't understand and had no idea what he was talking about.
Seeing the puzzled looks on their faces, Lin Qian chuckled and said, "It's nothing. Over at the Central Domain of the Human Clan's territory, eight forces are banding together to attack the Huaxia Empire, that's all."
"What!" Upon hearing Lin Qian's words, Mu Houde, Cui Bailin, and Zhu Dingtian couldn't help but exclaim in shock.
The Central Domain of the Human Clan's territory was currently the most powerful region of the Human Clan. The forces there, compared to their Western Continent, were probably the cream of the crop among the upper-class races.
And now, eight such forces were planning to attack the Huaxia Empire simultaneously!
"Your Majesty, although our Muling Clan has little military strength, at this critical juncture of life and death, we are willing to provide tireless service. All Soul Martial Artists from our clan can fight the enemy!" A mont later, without a second thought, Mu Houde spoke.
Cui Bailin and Zhu Dingtian, hearing Mu Houde's words, also chid in, "Your Majesty, although our two clans have only recently joined the Huaxia Empire, we too, are willing to offer our strength. Let Your Majesty see that our two clans truly join the Huaxia Empire to share its fate!"
Seeing the three Clan Leaders' righteous and ready-to-die attitude, Lin Qian was slightly moved inside.
In fact, the people of this world are also very endearing. As long as you genuinely treat them well, they will never let you down.
However…
"There's no need for that. Do you really think the Huaxia Empire is facing destruction just because of this? 'Sharing its fate,' don't joke about that." Lin Qian found the words of the three before him sowhat amusing. "Mu Houde, you will be responsible for hosting Cui Bailin and Zhu Dingtian, as well as the Green Spirit Clan and Earth Spirit Clan. Over these days, you should have beco very familiar with the Empire."
"Just eight Central Domain forces, I don't even consider them a threat. In fact, I have known for a while that they wanted to make a move on the Empire," Lin Qian said with a hint of mockery in his eyes, looking at the three Clan Leaders, "If they could have held back, I would have overlooked it for the sake of the human race. But since they have made their move, I will not show any rcy."
"It's clear that the Huaxia Empire is about to add considerably to its territories. Don't worry about the battle; this isn't sothing you need to be concerned about. Your task is to manage the Agriculture Departnt well for ; that is the best way you can repay , understand?"
Cui Bailin and Zhu Dingtian looked at each other, hesitating, wanting to say sothing.
On the side, Mu Houde already waved his hand toward them and spoke, "Since His Majesty has said so, we shouldn't worry too much. Let's just focus on our own tasks."
Pleased with Mu Houde's reaction, Lin Qian nodded in satisfaction and turned to leave.
After Lin Qian had left, Zhu Dingtian looked at Mu Houde, "You've changed a lot since I last saw you."
"Ha ha, it's all thanks to His Majesty's grace. Without it, where would I be today?" Seeing the envious tone in Zhu Dingtian's voice, Mu Houde said, "In this Empire, as long as you work hard, you will be rewarded accordingly. The stronger the Empire becos, the better we live. Let's strive together in the future."
"But what if the Huaxia Empire were to be defeated? We, having joined the Huaxia Empire, just staying behind and letting others fight to the death—I cannot ease my conscience," Cui Bailin said, his face showing sha.
Seeing Cui Bailin's expression, Mu Houde pondered for a mont before speaking, "Initially, I was also acting impulsively when I said those words to His Majesty. But after calming down, I also understand that His Majesty was speaking the truth. Just eight forces banding together probably really aren't that significant."
"Oh? How so?" Zhu Dingtian was very curious about Mu Houde's words.
"You may not know this, but now the entire Southern Domain is the territory of the Huaxia Empire. Initially, His Majesty led the Huaxia Empire and fought against the entire Southern Domain's 1,972 states and erged entirely victorious."
"Moreover, among those guarding the Huaxia Empire, the weakest in the Imperial Army are said to be at the Life and Death Realm. Every state has at least ten million Life and Death Realm Imperial Soldiers stationed there, not to ntion the hidden War Beast Army amongst the mountains, rivers, and forests!"
Following this, Mu Houde detailed everything he had learned about the Huaxia Empire over these days, and so of the Empire's peculiarities, such as the Soul Vision Machine, and so forth.
Mu Houde's words left the two stunned, standing still as if dazed, listening to him paint a fascinating picture.
After Mu Houde had finished, Cui Bailin and Zhu Dingtian finally understood what kind of existence the Huaxia Empire they had joined was.
"So His Majesty is likely to win this war?" After Mu Houde finished, Cui Bailin concentrated and then let out a wry smile, "In that case, we just need to peacefully stay within the Empire's territories and utilize our talents and abilities. That really is carefree."
"The Huaxia Empire is truly great," Zhu Dingtian said, recalling the delicious food he enjoyed on the Sky Soaring Battleship, his face breaking into a smile.
"By the way, Brother Mu, what is this Agriculture Departnt that His Majesty ntioned?" Cui Bailin, curious, asked right after.
Seeing Cui Bailin asking about this, Mu Houde's expression beca extrely solemn: "The Agriculture Departnt is an extrely important part of the entire Huaxia Empire. Going forward, nearly all the Empire's food materials, as well as Spirit Wood and the environnt and so forth, will be managed by us…"
Following Mu Houde's description of the responsibilities of the Agriculture Departnt, Cui Bailin and Zhu Dingtian both had complex expressions. They hadn't expected Lin Qian to entrust such an important departnt of the Huaxia Empire to the three of their different races.
At this mont, they fully experienced Lin Qian's concept of racial equality and had no doubts at all.
anwhile, Lin Qian had already directly approached Ye Xin and said to her, "Xinxin, let's return to the Huaxia Royal Palace."
At that mont, Ye Xin was teaching Cuiyu how to handle identity docunts for their people, clearly intending to groom her as a little helper.
When she heard Lin Qian's words, she looked up and saw the faint coldness in his eyes, understanding that sothing must have happened, and nodded gently.
"Cuiyu, you'll need to help out properly from now on."
"Mhm, don't worry, Sister. I'll try my best," Cuiyu assured Ye Xin seriously, with a light laugh.
Ye Xin patted Cuiyu's head and then rose into the air with Lin Qian.
The next mont, the Huaxia Imperial Airship appeared in mid-air, quickly carrying Lin Qian and Ye Xin towards the direction of New Qin City.
