1351 A War Without Smoke (2)
Without this matter, the Black Emperor wouldnât have been furious and launched an attack on the ancestral land in advance.
If Mu Zhixing hadnât cheated Wu Suchen out of his countless dharma treasures, the equipment of the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom soldiers would have been able to reach a higher level. Then, they wouldnât have suffered any setbacks when attacking the ancestral land.
If not for Mu Zhixing, the two Dragon Boats of the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom wouldnât have been destroyed.
If the Dragon Boats hadnât been destroyed, the Golden Dragon Guards would have long descended on the ancestral land and wiped out the remnants of the Heavenly Court.
If not for Mu ZhixingâŠ
If Mu Zhixing knew what Zhan Jingtao was thinking, he would definitely cry out in innocence. He wouldnât be able to clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River.
None of the things that Zhan Jingtao thought were done by Mu Zhixing had been done by him.
Apart from trapping Zhan Jingtao twice in the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom, Mu Zhixing had done nothing else.
He was really more wronged than Douâe[1].
He wasnât the one who did it, but he was blamed for everything.
âI canât live under the same sky as Mu Zhixing!â Wu Suchen gritted his teeth with a ferocious expression. âWhen I recover, I will certainly go to the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom again and ask the Green Emperor to give me an explanation!â
He really wished he could argue with the Green Emperor now. But he had been ambushed by Mu Zhixing earlier and almost died.
Even now, his injuries had not healed.
âThereâs no need to go to the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom,â Zhan Jingtao said coldly. âSince the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom has already colluded with the ancestral land, you wonât be able to get anything out of them even if you look for them.
âIâve decided, Brother Wu.â
Killing intent visible to the naked eye rose from Zhan Jingtaoâs body. His eyes shone brightly as he said in a deep voice, âI want to lead an army straight to the border of the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom. If they donât hand over Mu Zhixing, I wonât let them off!â
âCommander Zhan, youâŠâ Wu Suchenâs expression changed. Although he also hated Mu Zhixing, he didnât dare to attack the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom directly.
This wasnât a small matter. If the Black Emperor knewâŠ
Wu Suchen said, âCommander, if the Black Emperor finds out that you attacked the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom without permission, he will definitely punish you.â
âBattlefield command trumps all,â Zhan Jingtao said solemnly. âSince the Black Emperor wants me to lead the army of the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom, I have the right to mobilize the army.
âIâm not doing this to deal with the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom but to intimidate them! With the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom interfering, itâs impossible for us to complete the Black Emperorâs instructions and wipe out the remnants of the Heavenly Court!â
Zhan Jingtao said solemnly, âIâll charge forward. In terms of the art of war, thereâs no problem. Even if the Black Emperor finds out, Iâm not afraid.â
âI donât understand such things,â Wu Suchen said. âBut Commander, I rarely admire anyone. This time, Iâm convinced!
âIâll cooperate fully with you. I will give you all the final dharma treasures on my island!â
The two of them looked at each other. All the previous misunderstandings dissipated at this moment.
The two of them smiled, looking like they had just met.

In the Eight Views Palace of Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven, Shi Songtao came to Zhou Shu and reported, âYour Highness, Zhang San sent news that the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom army outside the light screen of the Ten Imperial Cauldrons has retreated.â
âLin Kelei left?â Zhou Shu nodded.
âHeâs left.â Shi Songtao looked impressed. âYour Highness, that Lin Kelei is really a little strange. I only opened a crack in the light screen of the Ten Imperial Cauldrons, and he crawled through it.
âThe most terrifying thing is that the soldiers of the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom didnât seem to see himâŠâ
âThey just didnât see him,â Zhou Shu said indifferently. âLin Kelei is one of the top experts in the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom. If he didnât even have this ability, he wouldnât have come here.
âI reckon that in the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom, unless Zhan Jingtao or the Black Emperor personally takes action, no one is his match.â
Although Lin Kelei looked like a kind old man on the surface, he was an out-and-out ruthless character.
Previously, in order to distract Zhan Jingtao and Wu Suchen, he had blown up an island in the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom!
This island was not an uninhabited deserted island. Countless people of the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom lived on it!
Although the people of the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom were enemies, Zhou Shu felt that Lin Keleiâs methods were ruthless!
Of course, Zhou Shu didnât care if he was ruthless to others, as long as he didnât use this method on humans.
âYour Highness, the Xuan Ming Heavenly KingdomâŠâ Shi Songtao asked.
Zhou Shu shook his head. âSince their army has temporarily retreated, no matter what the reason is, donât worry about it for the time being.
âJust leave my big brother and the others to lead the army to war. Deputy Pavilion Master Shi, your responsibility is to help me forge connate divine weapons!
âWe need to forge ten thousand connate divine weapons as quickly as possible!â
âTen thousand connate divine weapons?â Shi Songtao didnât hear Zhou Shu and Lin Keliâs conversation. When he heard about the ten thousand connate divine weapons, he almost collapsed to the ground.
Even if the Huaxia Pavilion went all out now, without considering Zhou Shu, it was already a blessing to be able to produce a connate divine weapon in a month.
Who knew when they would be able to forge ten thousand connate divine weapons.
In the past, although Zhou Shu had said that each human martial artist would have a connate divine weapon, Shi Songtao had always felt that it was a dream.
He had never taken it seriously.
Is His Highness serious about these ten thousand connate divine weapons?
