"Because people with mental illnesses can't say such shameless things."
As Shang Tang finished speaking, Lin Zhan looked at Shang Tang with a resentful expression and said,
"Ancestor, I am the cub you love the most. If you say that, I will be very sad."
Shang Tang knew his own cub too well and didn't fall for Lin Zhan's trick. He immediately said,
"Enough with the act, stop messing around. Tell me, why are you up to this again?"
Lin Zhan chuckled and said,
"Ancestor, I didn't want to, but we got into trouble and were extorted. I had no choice but to come up with this idea. And surprisingly, it worked quite well."
Lin Zhan's words stunned not only Shang Tang but also Yu Longyan, Hou Yi, and Bai Ze, who looked at Lin Zhan with bewilderment.
After all, they were curious about who dared to extort the Shang Dynasty's notorious troublemakers. What kind of illness did they have, and how could they be so foolish as to extort this infamous family of bandits?
They recalled that in ancient times, when the human race lacked resources, it was this family that went out and robbed them.
Even among the myriad races today, there were still wanted posters of the elders of this family, reportedly with substantial bounties.
Lin Zhan saw the excitement on everyone's faces, especially his own ancestor Shang Tang, who seemed eager for action. He couldn't help but roll his eyes and say,
"Ancestor, is it really okay for you to be so excited when our family is being extorted?"
Shang Tang showed no signs of embarrassment and said,
"Zhan'er, you have no idea. For nearly ten thousand years, our family has engaged in extermination and robbery. Robbery and smashing are our mandatory skills. Leading a gang to seize territory and guarding territories for the human race – these are all tasks we've excelled at. Even hunting in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, I, your ancestor, led people in those raids many times."
"But we've never been extorted before. Can you blame me for being excited? What kind of organization are they? Are they fat sheep? What are your plans, old ancestor and I? Are we going to double-cross them, or will we let them grow for a while, build a good relationship, and then smash their stronghold?"
As Shang Tang finished speaking, everyone in the room, including Bai Ze and the five giant pandas, instinctively distanced themselves from Shang Tang and Lin Zhan's family. It was hard to trust the character of this family.
Lin Zhan rolled his eyes and said, "Ancestor, you can forget about it this time. The other side is too formidable. Our family should just obediently comply." Su Dan Novel Network
Seeing the questioning looks on everyone's faces, he continued,
"Our ancestor Zi Qi reached out a hand from his coffin, and it was struck by the lightning of destiny. The ancestor was unharmed; he even dispersed the lightning with a great fiery blast. Later, there were negotiations with the destiny of the human race, and I was asked to sacrifice 1 billion from the myriad races. Where was I supposed to get that? So, I came up with this plan."
Unintentional words, but significant to those who heard them. Yu Longyan and Hou Yi exchanged shocked glances, their expressions filled with horror:
"Holy hell, Zi Qi is still that awesome? This leader of bandits hasn't changed at all. Bribery, corruption, and coercion – he's more skilled at this than anyone."
Yu Longyan sighed and said, "Zi Qi's personality is still the same. If Emperor Ku, my uncle, had passed the throne to Zi Qi instead of Emperor Yao, perhaps the matters of the myriad races would have been resolved long ago."
Hou Yi shook his head and said, "If Zi Qi had taken the throne, perhaps the human race would have been wiped out by now. This kid is too reckless."
Then Yu Longyan looked at Lin Zhan and said,
"So, you came up with this terrible idea. You've been pretending to be crazy since you got back, and you even tricked me back from the battlefield. You've set up such a big scheme. Aren't you afraid of getting yourself into trouble if you can't handle it?"
Lin Zhan pouted and said,
"It's not that I look down on Rommel's two disciples. Forget about him preparing 1 billion people; even if he prepared 2 billion, it would be useless. I'll be happy if he brings them all out at once. Then, with one wave of Number Five, I'll send them all back home."
"Great idea! Then, with one wave of Number Five, we'll directly eliminate the allied forces of the myriad races, and we can take a vacation and rest for two years." Hearing Lin Zhan's plan to use Number Five to bomb the allied forces of the myriad races, Caesar on the side said happily.
After all, he had witnessed the results of Lin Zhan's use of Number Five in the last battle. He then believed that the 1 billion allied forces of the myriad races were just a matter of a few more Number Fives.
As Caesar finished speaking, the entire group of Chinese personnel, including the five iron-eating beasts, looked at him with the eyes of idiots.
Tie Lao Liu, the most lively one, said to his companions, "How did this guy manage to be elected as one of the four Great General Kings of the Human King Hall with his brain? And he's a quasi-king at that."
Tie Mo, on the side, thought for a moment before saying, "I heard he only got it because he won against Han Xin in a game of rock-paper-scissors."
The pandas...
"Very good, very powerful. That reason is excellent."
Lin Zhan covered his face and said to Caesar in a gentle tone,
"General Caesar, what happened last time was actually a misunderstanding. I had no hostility towards the Caesar family. Last time, I just wanted to use the Caesar family as a pretext to attack the Roman Holy See."
As he spoke, he took out a small box and handed it to Caesar:
"This is China's Longevity Pill. Only quasi-kings can take it. For a clan's quasi-king, it can increase lifespan by 15 years and restore 20% of the body's vitality. For a quasi-king, it increases lifespan by 20 years and restores 30% of the body's vitality. These thirty Longevity Pills are my apology to the Caesar family."
Then he turned to Yu Longyan and said,
"Ancestor, General Caesar and his family have dedicated themselves to the human race. Generations of their rulers have died fighting for the human race. Our China cannot let such a heroic family suffer hardship after hardship. Give General Caesar a spot in the King's Court for advanced study, and strive for him to advance to the King level as soon as possible."
Yu Longyan was stunned but then nodded in agreement with Lin Zhan, saying, "Zhan'er, you are right. This is what our China should do."
Then he turned to Caesar and said, "General Caesar, heed my command. From now on, after General Caesar arranges his military and family affairs, he will enter the Human King's Court for arduous training in a month's time, striving to advance to the King level as soon as possible and spread the might of our human race."
Caesar was stunned but then looked moved, his eyes filled with tears as he said,
"Thank you, Ancestor Yan. Caesar will always remember the kindness of China. Caesar's family will not regret any sacrifice for the human race in battle. In the words of China, the Caesar family is willing to live as heroes and die as outstanding individuals."
Then he turned to Lin Zhan and said,
"Little friend Lin, thank you. Caesar knows that if it weren't for you speaking up for me this time, with my meager achievements, I wouldn't have received the reward of advancing to King. I won't say too much in thanks. From now on, whatever concerns little friend Lin is my concern."
