176: Fu Yang's decision! A challenge?

“Fu Saint Master, there’s no need for extra words.”

“Fu Saint Master, how do you think we should settle the score between the Sun Moon Holy Land and my Great Xia Dynasty?” Chu Yun asked directly.

Hearing this, Fu Yang’s expression remained calm as he replied, “I came here this time precisely to resolve this matter.”

“These are my greeting gifts for Chu Emperor.”

With a wave of Fu Yang’s hand, a Storage Ring appeared on Chu Yun’s desk.

Chu Yun glanced at it and immediately knew how much was inside. They were all valuable treasures, such as holy medicines over ten thousand years old, and a considerable number of holy pills, among other things.

“Fu Saint Master, are you planning to use these items to resolve the grievances between my Great Xia Dynasty and your Sun Moon Holy Land?”

“If so, aren’t you thinking a bit too simply?” Chu Yun continued.

Fu Yang explained, “Chu Emperor, my Sun Moon Holy Land did have some misunderstandings with the Great Xia Dynasty previously, but the Great Xia Dynasty suffered no losses.”

“Chu Emperor, why not make another friend? It’s always better than making another enemy, isn’t it?”

Fu Yang did not lower himself at this moment, calmly debating with Chu Yun.

“Not just anyone can be my friend.”

“Besides, to be honest about these things…”

“If I destroy the Sun Moon Holy Land, I would gain much, much more than this.”

Currently, the Great Xia Dynasty’s treasury was full, and it lacked very few things.

Although the items Fu Yang brought were valuable, they were not enough for Chu Yun.

Upon hearing Chu Yun’s words, Fu Yang’s expression darkened slightly.

He knew the Great Xia Dynasty was not simple, and he had come with the intention of making peace, showing sufficient initiative.

However, seeing Chu Yun’s demeanor, his desire for peace was not strong.

“Then, Chu Emperor, what do you suggest?” Fu Yang finally probed.

Chu Yun immediately stated, “It’s not impossible for the Sun Moon Holy Land to avoid war.”

“Since you were the ones who started the grievances, you naturally need to resolve the source.”

“How about this: as long as Fu Saint Master leads the Sun Moon Holy Land to submit to the Great Xia Dynasty and become an affiliated Holy Land of Great Xia, then this war can naturally be avoided.”

As soon as Chu Yun said this, Fu Yang was momentarily incredulous.

The Sun Moon Holy Land to submit to the Great Xia Dynasty?

One must know that throughout history, some Holy Lands in the Holy Land had indeed become vassals of other powers.

However, that was to ascend, submitting to powerful forces in the Divine Continent Pure Land.

But there had never been a case of descending to become a vassal of a force from the Hundred Dynasty Land.

If the Sun Moon Holy Land were to set such a precedent, it would surely be nailed to the pillar of shame and scorned by countless forces in the Holy Land!

“Chu Emperor, your condition… is a bit too demanding.”

“Setting aside the fact that my Sun Moon Holy Land’s foundation may not necessarily be inferior to the Great Xia Dynasty, just a Holy Land becoming a vassal to an Imperial Dynasty in the Hundred Dynasty Land—there has never been such a precedent in the history of the Yuan Realm!” Fu Yang said firmly.

Upon hearing this, Chu Yun’s expression remained natural and composed.

He knew that if he didn’t show Fu Yang a hand, he still wouldn’t make a wise choice.

“Foundation?”

“Hehehe.”

“Fu Saint Master, my Great Xia’s foundation, let alone your Sun Moon Holy Land, even if all the forces in the Holy Land were combined, they would not be enough in front of Great Xia.”

As soon as Chu Yun finished speaking, Yang Bu received his message, and his figure appeared in the main hall.

“Greetings, Your Majesty.” Yang Bu bowed slightly.

Chu Yun nodded and said, “Yang Bu, let Fu Saint Master thoroughly experience what my Great Xia’s foundation truly is.”

After hearing this, Yang Bu looked at Fu Yang.

Fu Yang also looked at him, their eyes meeting.

In an instant, Fu Yang suddenly felt as if countless eyes were staring at him, seeing through everything in his body.

The Heavenly Eye on Yang Bu’s forehead glowed, and the light from that Heavenly Eye instantly made Fu Yang lose control over his own power, losing all five senses!

“This!!!”

Fu Yang was deeply shaken internally, sweating profusely, nervous to the point of panic.

When the Heavenly Eye’s radiance shone upon him, at that moment, Fu Yang only felt an infinite sense of insignificance.

He felt like an ant in front of Yang Bu, who only needed to lightly pinch him, and he would surely die.

Boom!!

Then, Yang Bu’s Heavenly Eye closed, and his power retracted.

The terrifying power that had suppressed Fu Yang’s mind and body also disappeared, and his five senses returned.

But within his eyes, there was infinite shock.

Eternal Realm!!!

The moment his five senses recovered, he concluded that this Yang Bu was definitely an Eternal Realm expert!

He had encountered Cultivators of the Heavenly Severance Realm.

Although they were equally powerful, he had never felt such a sense of confusion and collapse.

It was a kind of power that he felt he could not resist even if he exhausted everything!

This could only be achieved by the legendary Eternal Realm Cultivators.

“How about it?”

“Fu Saint Master, now, do you think the gap between us is still small?” Chu Yun asked with a playful smile.

Fu Yang reacted quickly; his face still showed shock as he immediately replied, “Thank you, Chu Emperor, for granting this opportunity to my Sun Moon Holy Land.”

“I am willing to lead the Sun Moon Holy Land to become an affiliated force of the Great Xia Dynasty from now on!”

“Forever and ever, with no second thoughts!”

Fu Yang no longer needed to see anything else.

The mere fact that Chu Yun had an Eternal Realm subordinate already needed no further explanation.

The only path left before the Sun Moon Holy Land was this one.

So Fu Yang immediately expressed his gratitude without hesitation.

Seeing that Fu Yang was already sensible, Chu Yun smiled, “Since Fu Saint Master is willing to submit, mere words are not enough.”

“To be safe, I need a drop of Fu Saint Master’s soul blood to be kept with me for ten years.”

“After ten years, if the Sun Moon Holy Land still remains loyal, I will naturally return it.”

Fu Yang did not hesitate and decisively handed over his soul blood: “Please rest assured, Chu Emperor, my Sun Moon Holy Land will from now on only safeguard the interests of the Great Xia Dynasty.”

After collecting the soul blood, Chu Yun nodded with satisfaction: “Good.”

Just then, Meng Changzhong walked in from outside the hall, his expression rather solemn: “Your Majesty, someone has issued a challenge to Your Majesty and my Great Xia Dynasty.”
