Chapter 318: Chapter 24 Hard to Get Off the Riding Tiger in the Divine Dynasty of Great Ming_2

Translator: 549690339

Ye Fan’s speculation was quite accurate. The Jin Ding was not in the hands of the Great Qin Divine Dynasty, but in the hands of the seemingly unrelated Tang Divine Dynasty.

“The Great Ming Dynasty surely wouldn’t be that reckless, would they?”

Su Mu disagreed a bit. This matter was a thankless task, and aside from their Tang Divine Dynasty, who else would want to undertake it?

“Yin Zheng, that old fox, definitely wouldn’t do it. But Zhu Hai, that capricious king… he might just be crazy enough. He’s audacious enough, and if there’s enough benefit in it for him, there’s no one he wouldn’t dare to cross.”

“The luck and territory of the Dayu Divine Dynasty are enough to tempt that fool.”

The King of the Tang Dynasty wore a confident look, as if everything was under control.

In the royal capital of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, the King of the Great Ming watched indifferently at the envoys sent by various powerful forces.

“I want two-thirds of the territory,” the King of the Great Ming stated flatly.

The envoy’s expression soured at this statement.

They were the ones who would eventually have to take action, yet they would only get a third of the spoils. The envoy found this hard to accept.

“No one else has agreed to your terms, have they?”

The King of the Great Ming spoke with unwavering certainty.

From their appearances, the other two major Divine Dynasties hadn’t agreed either.

The envoy’s face turned even sourer at these words.

Without the support of these major dynasties, they wouldn’t dare make a move against the Dayu Divine Dynasty, which was also a formidable power.

Each of the major dynasties had a Peaking Taoist Ancestor.

Moving against the Dayu Divine Dynasty without a Peaking Taoist Ancestor would be suicide, wouldn’t it?

After much inner struggle, the envoy finally saw reason.

Without the support of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, they didn’t stand a chance at success.

A third of the territory it was. It was better than nothing.

After wandering aimlessly in the Chaos Void for a long time, they were at their breaking point.

“Fine, we agree.”

“Very well, when you return, you can find an excuse to target the Dayu Divine Dynasty. If they refuse, I will take action.”

With the assurance from the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, the various forces regained confidence.

One by one, the forces began to establish themselves in the Tonghai Dalu World or in the Chang Ming Realm.

At first, they simply occupied a small portion of the territory in these two worlds, giving the illusion of allegiance to the Dayu Divine Dynasty.

But once they had settled in, they immediately revealed their true intentions.

“Dayu Divine Dynasty, you certainly wouldn’t let us die, would you? Even a piece of land, you wouldn’t let us have?”

“That’s right! The Dayu Divine Dynasty occupies three worlds, why can’t they spare a bit of territory for us to survive?”

At first, those forces just wanted to morally bind the Dayu Divine Dynasty.

“King, these forces seem to be stirring up trouble!”

Xi Tian, the heavenly immortal who has already broken through to the Immortal Monarch Realm, informed Ye Xiaoxiao about the recent actions of these forces.

Moral abduction?

Hearing this, Ye Xiaoxiao’s face remained emotionless.

The Dayu Dynasty couldn’t be morally bound as long as it was devoid of morals.

It seemed like these opportunistic forces had started stirring the pot again, thinking that the Ye family no longer held any sway.

But it was a pity that Ye Xiaoxiao wasn’t to be trifled with.

“Issue an ultimatum to these forces. Either they submit, or leave the Dayu Divine Dynasty.”

Only those loyal to them could exist within the Dayu Divine Dynasty.

Besides, all this territory was won by the Dayu Divine Dynasty itself, why should they give it to these forces.

Having a group of forces with ulterior motives in the Dynasty was not a good thing.

Upon receiving Ye Xiaoxiao’s message, the forces weren’t surprised.

If the Dayu Divine Dynasty could be easily subdued, they wouldn’t need to go through the trouble of seeking support from the Great Ming Divine Dynasty.

Soon, the Great Ming Divine Dynasty sent a message to the Dayu Divine Dynasty.

“These forces are victims of the Chaos Sect. The Dayu Divine Dynasty should shoulder the responsibility just like the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, instead of expelling these already unfortunate forces.”

“Otherwise, we, the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, will back these forces.”

The meaning was clear: if the Dayu Divine Dynasty didn’t accept, the Great Ming Divine Dynasty would take action.

There was a lot of discussion in the various forces regarding the response of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty.

Some thought the Great Ming was being shameless, while others thought they were in the right.

However, no force stepped forward to mediate. All wanted to see whether these two major divine dynasties would actually come to blows.

Many powers are even hoping for these two forces to clash, hoping the best for both to be equally harmed.

However, most people believe the Dayu Divine Dynasty would not dare to take action against the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, an old dynasty, as there should still be a power gap.

“What do you all think we should do?”

Ye Xiaoxiao asked, looking at the many ministers below.

“Your Majesty, the answer is obvious, we fight, that’s it.”

“Your Majesty, let’s just beat the hell out of them.”

The reactions of the military officials did not surprise Ye Xiaoxiao, as they were all in favor of war.

However, the responses of the civil officials surprised Ye Xiaoxiao. Weren’t the civil officials always conservative? Why were they also thinking of fighting this time?

“Your Majesty, if we retreat again this time, these forces will surely take advantage of us. We have to fight this battle, whether we want to or not!”

Seeing Ye Xiaoxiao’s surprise, the civil officials took turns explaining.

Indeed, this battle had to be fought, willing or not.

It was now not about whether the Dayu Divine Dynasty wanted to fight, but about someone forcing the Dayu Divine Dynasty to fight!

If the Dayu Divine Dynasty lost this battle, there might be only one way out, and that was to retreat to the Yan Huang Grand World.

“Fight!”

Ye Xiaoxiao’s phoenix robe fluttered around her. This time, she would personally lead the charge.

The twenty-eight Star Regiments and the newly-formed one hundred and eight Heavenly Generals and Earth Generals all mobilized at the same time.

Hundreds of millions of soldiers, representing the peak power of the entire Dayu Divine Dynasty.

The Star Regiments and the Heavenly Soldiers Regiment struck almost simultaneously, sweeping through the forces within the two grand worlds.

There was no negotiation, no verbal warning, they just took action, without any hesitation.

This sudden action caught all the major forces off guard, and they were annihilated before they could react.

The remaining forces began to panic as soon as they saw what the Dayu Divine Dynasty was doing.

In the past, even if they were going to take action, they would first issue a warning, then start a mass expulsion and finally use force.

The Dayu Divine Dynasty was playing out of the norm, they started off by fighting to kill!

The several major forces leading the alliance panicked, and they immediately started contacting the Great Ming Divine Dynasty for help!

The King of the Great Ming smashed a city upon hearing news of the Dayu Divine Dynasty taking immediate action.

“Dayu Divine Dynasty, stop what you are doing immediately. Do not blame me, the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, for intervening.”

He had already declared his protection of these forces, but the Dayu Divine Dynasty dared to take action against these forces. They were totally disregarding him, a divine dynasty king.

In response to the warning from the King of the Great Ming, Ye Xiaoxiao personally replied with a sentence.

“Dare to enter the territory of the Dayu Divine Dynasty, fight to the death!”

The murderous intent that reached the heavens made even the King of the Great Ming stiffen for a moment.

Fight till death!

At their level, these words were not a joke.

If they failed to keep their word, it would greatly impact their Daoism.

If the Great Ming Divine Dynasty really dared to wage war on the Dayu Divine Dynasty, the outcome would indeed be a fight to the death.

At this moment, even the King of the Great Ming was slightly regretful of his promise to the many great forces.

He never could have imagined that Ye Xiaoxiao would be so resolute.

Sometime later, Ye Xiaoxiao’s words were somehow leaked from within the Great Ming Divine Dynasty.

Now, everyone was interested.

They were all watching the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, wanting to see if they really dared to take action!

“Idiots, are you all idiots?”

The King of the Great Ming flew into a rage. Now that the news had leaked, if the Great Ming Divine Dynasty didn’t take action, would it mean that he, the King of the Great Ming, was afraid of the Dayu Divine Dynasty?

If they didn’t take action, he would truly lose face.

At this point, the King of the Great Ming no longer had a choice.

“Assemble, prepare to take action!”

The entire Great Ming Divine Dynasty went into motion, evidently ready to take action.

“This fool can’t run away this time. This time, I hope he doesn’t disappoint me.”

How could the news from within the Great Ming Divine Dynasty easily be leaked? Of course, someone took action!

This person was none other than the King of the Tang Dynasty.

Only if the Pangu Universe was in chaos would they have an opportunity!
