Chapter 325: Great Qin’s Wishful Thinking, the Reason for the Failure (2)

However, Zhou Shu hadn’t been sure if the G.o.d of War Catalog could work on this person.

After all, his current G.o.d of War Catalog cultivation was far from perfection.

His divine ability Unparalleled Benevolence could only share half of his cultivation to others.

Unexpectedly, the G.o.d of War Catalog was really useful.

He just didn’t know how much of this man’s awakening was due to the effects of the Breakthrough Pill and how much of it was due to the G.o.d of War Catalog.

But it didn’t matter. Either way, it was all thanks to Zhou Shu.

The man only opened his eyes after cultivating for more than two hours.

It was clear that his injuries had not healed.

The man looked at Zhou Shu and the others and said weakly, “May I ask which general of Great Xia is here? Is General Sun Yucheng here?”

“Sun Yucheng?” Zhou Shu was slightly stunned.

Yin Wuyou leaned close to his ear and whispered, “Sun Gongping’s father!”

Zhou Shu nodded. “General Sun isn’t here, but General Mi is his brother-in-law.” Zhou Shu pointed at Mi Ziwen.

“Shouldn’t you introduce yourself first?”

“General Sun’s brother-in-law? Are you from Great Xia’s Mi family?” The man looked at Mi Ziwen and cupped his hands. “My apologies! I am Cao Chenyang from Great Liang!”

Zhou Shu didn’t react, but Yin Wuyou and Mi Ziwen exclaimed, “Cao Chenyang?!”

Zhou Shu turned around and looked at the two of them. Was Cao Chenyang very famous?

“Cao Chenyang is the younger brother of the current Great Liang emperor’s mother. More than ten years ago, he was the number one expert of Great Liang! During the last Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament, it was said that he perished together with the experts of the Demon Realm,” Yin Wuyou whispered in Zhou Shu’s ear.

Cao Chenyang looked at Mi Ziwen strangely, then at Zhou Shu.

Sun Yucheng’s brother-in-law was from the Mi family of the Great Xia Dynasty. He must have a high status.

However, it seemed that the young man in front of him was the leader. Could he be a prince of Great Xia?

Cao Chenyang cupped his hands at Zhou Shu with a serious expression. “I’m seriously injured. Please forgive me for being rude.”

“General…”

“I’m no general,” Zhou Shu said.

“This is the King of the South of Great Xia.” Yin Wuyou spoke first.

“So, it’s His Highness the King of the South. My apologies.” Cao Chenyang was stunned for a moment before saying, “This matter is urgent. I’ll make it short. Since Great Xia’s King of the South is here, there might be a chance!

“Your Highness, please gather the ten nations’ armies immediately. I only hope it’s not too late!” Cao Chenyang said with a serious expression.

“Cao…” Zhou Shu hesitated, not knowing how to address Cao Chenyang.

Zhou Shu simply said, “Senior Cao, you must be joking. Do you think I have the right to gather the ten nations’ armies?”

“Your Highness, this is not about having rights. The survival of the ten nations is at stake…” Cao Chenyang said anxiously.

“I believe you. But even if I wanted to, I couldn’t.” Zhou Shu shook his head and interrupted him. “Let alone the ten nations’ armies, I can’t even contact the Great Xia army. How do you think I can gather them?

“Senior Cao, why don’t you tell us what happened first? That way, we can formulate a strategy to deal with it.”

Cao Chenyang frowned and looked at Zhou Shu and the others for a while before hearing Zhou Shu continue.

“Senior Cao, if you don’t trust us? Great Liang’s General Han Dazhi is also here. I can call him over.”

“Han Dazhi?” Cao Chenyang said. “Why is he in the military camp of Great Xia?”

“It’s a long story.”

Cao Chenyang’s injuries had yet to recover. Zhou Shu was afraid that if he told him that Great Liang was completely wiped out and his injuries relapsed, he would have worked for nothing.

“Then, let’s not talk about that first.” Cao Chenyang waved his hand and said solemnly, “King of the South, General Mi, I came from the Demon Realm!

“The s.p.a.ce barrier between the Demon Realm and this world has already shattered! The Demon Realm can come in large numbers at any time. At that time, what awaits the ten nations’ armies will be a calamity!”

Then he saw that Zhou Shu and the others’ expressions remained unchanged.

He frowned. “Don’t you know what the Demon Realm means to the ten nations? Or do you think I’m just exaggerating?”

“Neither.” Zhou Shu shook his head. “Senior Cao, we’ve already guessed what you’ve just said.

“I want to ask you, do you know how long the barrier between the Demon Realm and this world can last?”

“No more than three years,” Cao Chenyang said seriously.

“Three years? Does that mean it won’t last until the end of the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament?” Zhou Shu asked. “Senior Cao, do you know why this happened?”

Anger flashed across Cao Chenyang’s face. He gritted his teeth and said, “It’s Ji Lutian!”

Zhou Shu and the others looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other’s eyes.

Ji Lutian?

They had just mentioned this name before!

Yao Qing’s biological father was Ji Lutian!

As for Ji Lutian, he was once a Grand Craftsman of Great Qin, and he had gone to the Demon Realm at some point.

Did Cao Chenyang mean that Ji Lutian had betrayed the human race?

“Senior Cao, are you talking about Great Qin’s Ji Lutian?” Zhou Shu said. “He betrayed the ten nations? He helped the Demon Realm break through this barrier?”

“He did not betray the ten nations,” Cao Chenyang said hatefully. “His wishful thinking harmed the ten nations!”

“Wishful thinking?” Zhou Shu was puzzled. “Senior Cao, can you be clearer?”

“At this point, there’s nothing to hide.” Cao Chenyang coughed a few times, and blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth.

He wiped it off indifferently and said solemnly, “Back then, Ji Lutian came up with a plan. He planned to steal the power of the Demon Realm to create an expert who surpa.s.sed the first rank of the Martial Dao and let this person resist the invasion of the Demon Realm.

“For that, he risked himself and entered the Demon Realm.”

Cao Chenyang’s expression was very complicated. There was hatred and admiration.

“His plan was to risk everything,” Cao Chenyang continued. “But he has never discussed it with other nations! Great Qin can’t bear the consequences of the failure of the plan!”

“Ji Lutian wants to steal the power of the Demon Realm through the imperial cauldron?” Zhou Shu pondered.

“If the plan fails, the Great Qin imperial cauldron will be damaged, right?

“If the imperial cauldron is damaged, there will naturally be loopholes in the protective layer of our world. That’s why the current consequences occurred, right?”

Zhou Shu had once come into contact with the imperial cauldron. As a Forging Master, he vaguely guessed how Ji Lutian had done it.

Great Qin was really delusional!

It was no wonder that the Qin emperor was so much stronger than the emperors of the other nine nations. Other than his inborn talent, it was probably due to Ji Lutian’s plan.

Zhou Shu knew that Great Qin’s imperial cauldron had already been damaged. In other words, Ji Lutian’s plan had failed.

Or perhaps, his plan hadn’t failed. It was just that he had stolen too much power, so much so that even the imperial cauldron couldn’t withstand it. It was why Great Qin’s imperial cauldron was damaged…

Cao Chenyang looked at Zhou Shu in surprise, not knowing why he could guess this.

But this wasn’t important now. He nodded and said, “That’s right. The damage to the imperial cauldron has caused the barrier between this world and the Demon Realm to shatter. Once it completely shatters, the Demon Realm can invade our ten nations through this world. At that time…

“Ji Lutian and Great Qin were bold and reckless, but they did it for the sake of the human race. Their plan might not have failed in the first place. It was because there was a traitor in the human race that caused them to fail!”

The hatred in Cao Chenyang’s eyes surged out like a tide. He gritted his teeth, wishing he could skin something alive.

“A traitor?” Zhou Shu, Mi Ziwen, and the others asked at the same time, “Who is it?”
