Chapter 404 - 404 The Opportunity to Build a Country
404 The Opportunity to Build a Country
“The reason why the survivors of the Zhao State are resistant to Floating Jade rogue cultivators is mainly because of your identity. If you are no longer Floating Jade rogue cultivators, but some other power, the estrangement will naturally be eliminated.” Gu Mingzhou said.
Fortunately, he had just received news that a certain power he knew was in trouble.
“As long as we rescue them and combine them into one family, we will naturally be able to establish a country in the Old Zhao State.”
“If you agree with me, it means you have lost your previous identity. The newly-established country will not let a Floating Jade rogue cultivator be the king.” Gu Mingzhou continued.
Floating Jade Island Master did not dare to directly occupy the Zhou Dynasty’s vast land as he was worried the New World’s cultivation alliance would resist.
As Gu Mingzhou had said, when the Floating Jade rogue cultivators joined the forces and successfully established a new country, the first king could not be one of them.
Floating Jade Island Master had lived for hundreds of years and understood what Gu Mingzhou meant.
“That’s a good suggestion. What if they start a purge on Floating Jade Island after we establish our country?” Floating Jade Island Master revealed what he was worried about.
“I have absolute trust in the leader of this force. Moreover, they don’t have many people, not even one-thousandth of the floating Jade rogue cultivators.” Gu Mingzhou had obviously already thought of this.
“The number of people in the force is less than a hundred?” Floating Jade Island Master asked.
“Not bad! However, their reputation is known by everyone.”
“Could it be The Trap Organization?” The Floating Jade Island Master asked with some uncertainty.
“Indeed!” Gu Mingzhou nodded, confirming the other party’s guess.
Gu Mingzhou was not surprised the Island Master of Floating Jade Island could guess the trap.
Liu Youcheng would definitely have some understanding of the various powers of the Zhou Dynasty.
The Trap’s primary goal was to resist foreign enemies.
This included the rogue cultivators who oppose the freezing cold land.
“If it’s a The Trap, we can try it. However, The Trap is specially set up to deal with rogue cultivators. Will they agree to merge?” The Floating Jade Island Master was still a little worried.
“The leader of The Trap net has some ties with me. From what I understand, he won’t reject me.” Gu Mingzhou said confidently.
Zhao Gao was still fresh in Gu Mingzhou’s memory.
And with his personality, he would not refuse a suggestion.
Zhao Gao’s life goal was to destroy the rogue cultivators in freezing cold land.
He could accomplish his goal by taking in the last of the rogue cultivators from freezing cold land.
Gu Mingzhou knew this, which was why he could make such a solemn promise to the Island Master of Floating Jade Island.
“As long as the other party can ensure the continuation of my Floating Jade, I will accept any conditions!” seeing Gu Mingzhou’s confident look, the Island Master of Floating Jade Island could only agree to Gu Mingzhou’s proposal. “I’ll go to the Zhao State to find the trap. You lead the floating Jade rogue cultivator over the mountain range. We’ll meet again then. Gu Mingzhou was ready to leave.”
“Then I’ll leave it to you, Brother Gu!” The Floating Jade Island Master cupped his fists and said.
Gu Mingzhou’s speed was at full force as he sped towards the Old Zhao residence.
It was a boundless ocean that surrounded the area.
The dividing line between the north and south was right in the middle of Handan City. As a result, the entire territory of Handan City was divided into the north and south.
The headquarters of “The Trap”, a terrorist organization that struck fear into the hearts of the cultivators, was located here.
Handan City, Zhai Xing Pavillion.
The Zhai Xing Pavilion, which had been a place for information exchange, had become deserted after the destruction of the Zhao State.
Seven to eight figures were standing in the box of the Zhai Xing Pavilion.
There were two men in white robes sitting at the square wooden table.
One of them was wearing a silver mask.
There was also a middle-aged man whose sideburns had already turned white.
If Gu Mingzhou was here, he would instantly recognize them. They were the former murderous level killer of The Trap, the current heaven-level killer Zhen Gang, and the Sect Master Zhao Gao.
Zhen Gang had already become a warrior of the mortal realm.
He looked at Zhen Gang across from him and said. “Is the information confirmed?” Zhao Gao held a steaming cup of tea in his hand, brought it to his mouth, and took two sips.
“It’s confirmed that the cultivators from England and the immortal foundation demonic cultivators from the sea of freezing cold land will lead them. There will be a total of ten people, all of whom have the cultivation of the mortal realm.” Zhen Gang replied coldly.
“Where are they currently?” Zhao Gao asked again.
“He should have entered Handan City.” Zhen Gang calmly analyzed the situation. The other party was stronger and didn’t dare to get too close.
“They have already contacted the England troops in Handan City, ready to surround and annihilate us?” Zhao Gao said as he slowly stood up and walked to the window to observe the situation.
“To be more accurate, since last night, they have surrounded the entire Handan City. They have even surrounded Zhai Xing Pavilion.” Zhen Gang explained as he looked at Zhao Gao’s back.
“I knew their target must be The Trap, but I was confused. I ordered all the assassins to spread out and hide, so how did they lock on to us?” Zhao Gao sighed as his gaze swept across everyone in the room.
A chill burst out from Zhao Gao’s body, causing the temperature in the room to drop!
“The only people who know about the internal operation plan of the net are the few of you here,” Zhao Gao paused for a moment before speaking again. The gaze that swept across the crowd became even colder.
“Sect Master! I know what you’re suspicious of, but I firmly believe the problem doesn’t lie with us!” Zhen Gang suddenly stood up and said.
“You’re all people I brought up with my own hands, but the truth is right in front of my eyes. I can’t help but doubt you.” Zhao Gao walked back to the table and said.
“Sect Master!” Zhen Gang’s expression changed as he spoke again.
“I already have a clue. I still want to give him a chance. It’s best for him to admit it himself!” Before Zhen Gang could finish, Zhao Gao interrupted him.
He said indifferently as he sized up the seven assassins behind Zhen Gang.
Zhen Gang subconsciously looked behind him.
Zhao Gao’s gaze swept past him. It was obvious that the person who had betrayed the net was not Zhen Gang.
His firm tone made Zhen Gang, who firmly believed there wouldn’t be a mole, feel a little flustered.
None of the seven killers spoke.
When a certain murderous assassin heard Zhao Gao’s words, he pursed his lips slightly due to nervousness and hesitation.
“I really didn’t expect that the one who betrayed us would be you. We’re acquaintances so I won’t kill you. You can go.” Zhao Gao instantly recalled the killer who had pursed his lips and sighed.
Zhao Gao turned his back to the crowd and stood with his hands behind his back.
The room fell into silence again.
The killer who had pursed his lips earlier suddenly walked out and knelt behind Zhao Gao.
“You actually dared to betray The Trap!” Zhen Gang looked at the kneeling assassin and exclaimed in disbelief.
“Sect Master, I’m sorry. If I don’t agree to his request, my pregnant wife will be killed by them!” The killer didn’t pay any attention to Zhen Gang but said to Zhao Gao in despair.
“I know you were forced to do this, so I won’t kill you. You can go!” Zhao Gao didn’t turn around. Instead, he looked out the window and sighed.
“Thank you, Sect Master!” When he received Zhao Gao’s reply that he wouldn’t kill him, he immediately kowtowed and thanked him with tears in his eyes.
He stood up slowly, wiped away his tears, and bowed to his companions apologetically.
