Chapter 1473
It was a little quiet.
Marquis Xia was leaning back on his chair at this moment, looking at the ceiling of the main hall, as if he was in a daze.
Below the stage, some people’s expressions changed again and again, and news spread out one after another.
The Great Xia Manor had lost!
The Great Xia Manor, or rather, the pro-war faction... had lost!
..
The Great Ming Manor.
On Yuexin Island.
Zhu Tiandao was playing chess with Niu Baidao when he received a voice transmission. He said softly, “15 to 13, the main fighting faction is only going to search the soul and seal the Qi with 15 votes.”
Niu Baidao was slightly stunned. He looked at him, holding the chess piece in his hand. After a while, he said in a low voice, “How did the main fighting faction choose?”
The main fighting faction had lost?
The final struggle of the Great Xia Manor had been crushed by this straw?
Zhu Tiandao placed the stone and said softly, “I’ve left it to Su Yu to choose.”
“...”
NIU bendao laughed dryly and said, “Is that so? Su Yu is in closed door cultivation.”
“Oh!”
Zhu Tiandao nodded indifferently. “Then let’s enter closed door cultivation for a period of time.”
Niu Bendao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He knew that it would be difficult to hide it from this person, so he didn’t care too much about it. Niu bendao said in a deep voice, “Manor Head, actually, I still want to ask, is the great Ming manor fighting or making peace?”
“What do you think?”
Zhu Tiandao asked back. Niu bendao thought for a long time, he said, “We Aren’t ready. The gods and demons aren’t ready either. Even the immortals haven’t made up their minds yet. Right now, both sides are afraid of each other. “A hundred years later, the humans are ready. The gods, demons, immortals, and demons are also ready. At that time, even if you have a few more invincible ones, you might not be able to gain any advantage.”
“If you feel that you want to fight, then should we start now?”
Zhu Tiandao said with a smile, “Is that what you mean?”
“No, I don’t advocate an all-out war right now.”Niu baidao shook his head and said, “However, we need to start making preparations for a large-scale regional war right now! “The military preparations need to start. At this moment, it’s not appropriate to take a step back. We need to fight to the death to make the fiendgods fear us. We need to maintain peace in the general direction, but we need to rely on killing and deterrence.”
NIU bendao continued, “The gods and demons are actually just testing the waters. Previously, when they asked us to hand over Su Yu and the others, they were only trying to judge the situation of the human race. They even maliciously split the human race into invincible factions. Manor head should know this as well.”
Zhu tiandao nodded slightly, “I know, but... After a hundred years of peace, there are a few more invincible factions. They even secretly allowed some fellows to rise up. A hundred years isn’t a short period. It’s actually normal for someone to agree.”
Niu bendao nodded and smiled. “It’s normal. Let’s not talk about this. Manor Head, I still have to ask, what is the Great Ming Manor’s intention?”
“What is the Great Ming King’s intention?”
Zhu Tiandao pondered for a moment before opening his mouth to speak “You and my father are old friends. There’s no need to hide some things. Actually, the great Ming Manor’s attitude was neutral from the start. You know this as well. As for now... I still need to wait and consider.”
“Wait for what?”
“Hope!”
“Hope?”
NIU baidao asked hesitantly, “Who gave you hope?”
Zhu Tiandao smiled and said, “Don’t tell me you think it’s Su Yu? This kid is still lacking. The hope I want is Liu Wenyan, Hong Tan... and perhaps Chen Yong.”
Zhu Tiandao sighed lightly and said, “The fifth generation failed. I don’t know if there’s any hope for his disciples, but I... Still hope that they can give us hope. As for those that the other fellows secretly nurtured...”
After a pause, Zhu Tiandao shook his head and sighed once more, “They are very strong. I have actually seen a few of them. The Sun and the Moon have already appeared, but the feeling they give me is too conventional. They are much stronger than ordinary single divine inscriptions, much stronger than most divine inscriptions... however, they are too conventional. They don’t give me the feeling that they are sweeping across the world. They are the only ones who are unrivaled!”
He shook his head in disappointment, “Whether it’s Ye Batian, Liu Wenyan, or even Xia Yunqi and the others who failed, they can all give me some hope. I, Ye Batian, will succeed. Even if I fail, I will turn the world upside down! “But the few people I met didn’t give me such a feeling. They have pride, strength, and talent, but... they just lack some of that feeling.”
“What feeling?”
Niu baidao smiled and said, “Do you need that feeling of being insufferably arrogant?”
“No!”
Zhu Tiandao couldn’t help but laugh and said, “I can’t explain it clearly. In short, compared to the invincible ones I’ve seen before, it’s just a little lacking, so I’m not too optimistic.”
Niu baidao understood. “So you still hope to see more hope, right?”
“Yes.”
Zhu Tiandao smiled and said, “Otherwise, the Zhu family will be more neutral and can only go with the flow.”
Niu baidao hesitated for a moment and said, “What about Su Yu?”
“Him?”
Zhu Tiandao thought about it again and again, “If he can have the sun and moon battle strength within three years, my Zhu family will go all out to help him attain Dao! Three years... three years should not be enough for an all-out war to break out. If he can have the sun and moon battle strength, I will fully support him to go on!”
“The requirements are too high!”
Niu baidao shook his head. “He is still young, only 19 years old. Three years later, he will only be 22 years old. You have such high requirements for him. Can you live with your conscience?”
“Nonsense. The old Zhu family is risking their lives. If he does not give me great hope, how can I drag the Zhu family and Daming Manor Down with me?”
Speaking up to this point, Zhu Tiandao smiled and said, “Let’s not talk about this anymore. From the looks of it, it is actually not bad. I did not ask that Brat Su Yu who he voted for, but on the Xia family’s side... there is a high probability that they voted for Feng Qi.”
Zhu Tiandao smiled and said, “The situation isn’t bad. Even if it’s a draw, it’s still okay. “It means that most of the invincible are still willing to fight, including those from the neutral faction. Some of them just want to see more hope, not that they don’t dare to fight. As long as the Xia family can give everyone some hope... they can still attract most of the people. They’re just afraid that everyone will see despair.”
