Lin Zhan frowned deeply after listening to Xiao Wuhen’s words. Lin Zhan knew that a full-scale invasion of Fusang would definitely cause significant civilian casualties, and not all of them deserved to die.
“Let’s fight first and see. In the end, it depends on what the Ancestors decide. I don’t know if Fusang will remain in the future or not. If not, then there will be no more Fusang people, and we won’t have to worry about these things anymore,” Lin Zhan thought that if Emperor Xin and the other kings attacked, Fusang would cease to exist, so why bother with these trivialities.
Xiao Wuhen nodded upon hearing this, “You are quite carefree, you brat.”
Lin Zhan pondered for a moment and then spoke again, “Senior Xiao, why don’t you go and discuss this with that old fellow Miyamoto Musashi? He can lead his family to establish a base, so he must have some ideas about the Fusang populace. Once the Ancestors eliminate all the Fusang experts, he will become the leader, right? In the hearts of the Fusang people, this sole surviving quasi-king will surely have a significant say. Moreover, I’ve already captured those two useless princes from the royal family.”
“Haha, you little brat, you’re full of wicked ideas. No wonder you targeted the royal family first. You’ve already planned to support a puppet. Fine, I’ll go and have a chat with that old fox Miyamoto Musashi. In the future, our Huaxia will have another territory like Fusang. This is quite interesting,” Xiao Wuhen finally understood. Could this unscrupulous brat Lin Zhan let such abundant labor go to waste? In a few generations, they would all be descendants of Huaxia.
Before Xiao Wuhen could finish speaking, intense spatial fluctuations occurred in the room. With a flash of light, over a dozen figures appeared out of thin air.
Leading them was the Human King of Huaxia, Ancestor Emperor Xin. Behind Emperor Xin were two men in dark red dragon robes and an old Taoist priest in a Celestial Master’s robe.
Following them were the six clan-preserving quasi-kings standing with Lin Hai and Lin Shan, and thirteen quasi-kings of the same level as Leng Shan, Zhang Qingze, and Ying Buzheng.
Lin Zhan knelt down towards Emperor Xin, "Greetings, Ancestor."
Xiao Wuhen also quickly paid his respects, saying, "Xiao Wuhen greets Ancestor Emperor Xin."
Before Lin Zhan could complete his bow, a gentle force lifted him up. Emperor Xin looked at Lin Zhan with satisfaction and said, "Come, Zhan’er, these are two kings from the Liu family of the Great Han, our Ancestors. And this is the fifth-generation Celestial Master Ancestor from the Celestial Master Mansion. Quickly pay your respects."
After hearing Emperor Xin’s words, Lin Zhan hurriedly saluted the three kings and said, "Lin Zhan greets the three Ancestors."
“Haha, Zhan’er, there’s no need for such formalities. I am Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Che. This is Emperor Guangwu of Han, Liu Xiu. Speaking of which, we are not outsiders. The Liu clan originally originated from the ancient Imperial Dragon Clan. Since you are a descendant of Ancestor Yan, you are naturally one of us Liu family. There’s no need to be so distant,” Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Che, said with a hearty laugh.
The quasi-kings behind them said to Lin Hai and Lin Shan with a touch of jealousy, “Second brother, third brother, your son has gotten a really good start in this life.”
Emperor Xin chuckled and scolded, “All of you are so old, yet you still have no sense of propriety.”
He then said to Lin Zhan, “Zhan’er, you did very well this time. You grasped the situation perfectly. Go and bring that young fellow Miyamoto Musashi here. I have something to ask him.” Su Dan Novel Network
The fifth-generation Celestial Master of the Celestial Master Mansion also spoke, “Bring Hao Ming to me as well. I haven’t seen this child in a long time.”
Lin Zhan bowed and retreated, hurrying towards Miyamoto Musashi’s room.
Pushing open the door and entering the room, Lin Zhan immediately said to Ying Xuan and the others, “We have visitors from home. Several Ancestor-level figures have arrived. Don’t be casual later.”
He then turned to Miyamoto Musashi and said, “Old man, don’t be startled when you see them later. Your future prosperity or your head depends on how you behave now.”
After speaking, he retracted the Dragon Binding Rope and returned with them to the room of the Huaxia bigwigs.
Seeing the room full of influential figures, everyone hurriedly began to pay their respects. Even Ying Xuan and Zhang Haoran, the most unruly ones, stood obediently by the side, not daring to breathe loudly.
Only the young Taoist Zhang Haoming excitedly pounced into the arms of the fifth-generation Celestial Master, "Ancestor, Hao Ming misses you so much! I’m telling you, Ancestor, Hao Ming has a wife now, unlike my senior brothers who are still single dogs without any proper behavior. Ancestor, you wouldn’t believe it, Hao Ming has money now by following my eldest brother. Before, when senior brother led us, we couldn’t even eat good food, we were nothing.” As he spoke, the young Taoist took out a pile of Lord-level crystal cores from his storage space.
The Old Celestial Master doted on Zhang Haoming, “Is that so? Our little娃娃 knows what a wife is now? Quickly tell your Ancestor which family’s girl it is. I’ll personally go and propose marriage for you.”
The young Taoist blushed and said, “It’s… it’s Lin Lao Da’s Xiao Ya’er. I really like her.”
The Old Taoist looked at Emperor Xin in surprise, “Haha, Emperor Xin, we’ve become in-laws this time. Congratulations!”
Ancestor Emperor Xin was also happy, “This is great news. We’ll have a good chat when we return to Huaxia.”
As he spoke, Emperor Xin took out a foot-long precious sword and said, “Here, little娃娃, this is from your Ancestor.”
Zhang Haoming glanced at the Old Celestial Master. Seeing the Old Celestial Master nod, he quickly got off the ground and kowtowed to Emperor Xin, “Haoming thanks the Ancestor for the bestowal.”
Miyamoto Musashi looked at the harmonious scene before him, and tears welled up in his eyes. I am a quasi-king of a clan, yet in the eyes of these bigwigs, I am not even as important as these two little brats meeting their parents.
He then cautiously looked at the quasi-kings, becoming even more terrified. Good heavens, didn’t the two killers from the Lin family die? How have they reappeared? How strong is this Huaxia? There are eight clan-preserving quasi-kings, sixteen high-ranking quasi-kings, and these two Ancestors. Oh, and those two who have been chatting with young Lin might also be kings.
Emperor Xin’s gaze shifted back to Miyamoto Musashi, “Young fellow, tell me your thoughts.”
Miyamoto Musashi knew that his future depended on whether this Ancestor was satisfied. He hurriedly said, “Reporting to Human King Ancestor, the current high command of Fusang is led by Oda Nobunaga. They are all members of the Ten Thousand Races Church. Moreover, the Bone Demon race and the Ghost race have stationed nearly 300,000 troops inside Mount Apple, along with two kings and four quasi-kings.”
“Although I am not of Huaxia, I am still a member of the human race. These beasts of the Ten Thousand Races eat people and kill without regard for human lives. Based on this alone, I cannot continue like this. Furthermore, some of my kin have been forced into the Ten Thousand Races Church, and I do not want my descendants to bear the name of traitors to the human race,” Miyamoto Musashi said with a mournful expression. However, everyone could see that he was indeed loyal to the human race.
