Chapter 415 The Conditions For Cooperation
"The Trap is taking in a hundred thousand cultivators of the Floating Jade Island. They need to build a country. I hope that the troops of England and the underwater beast cultivators stationed here will evacuate as soon as possible and never set foot in the new kingdom again."
Based on Zhao Gao's words, he was undoubtedly preparing to build a new country and launch a war against the Zhou Dynasty. This was to form an alliance with England and fight against the Zhou Dynasty at the same time.
Although Xu Fengyu's previous words had convinced Gu Mingzhou, it still made him feel suspicious.
If a new kingdom suddenly reneged and it declared war on the Zhou Dynasty, it would undoubtedly be a fatal blow to the new kingdom or even complete destruction.
Declaring war on the Zhou Dynasty was undoubtedly cutting off all ties with the Zhou Dynasty and becoming enemies.
In the future, whether it was the Zhou Dynasty or England that won, it would pose a huge threat to The Trap.
If Zhou Dynasty won, The Trap would definitely be destroyed.
England was an ally, but who could guarantee Xu Fengyu's words?
Hence, from Gu Mingzhou and Zhen Gang's point of view, Zhao Gao should remain neutral and quickly stabilize his regime and strengthen his army in case of an emergency.
They would maintain a neutral relationship with the two countries and wait for the results.
Declaring war on the Zhou Dynasty was undoubtedly the worst plan!
"If your plan succeeds, then with the mountain range as the boundary, you can divide into two countries and form an eternal alliance with each other." Zhao Gao was extremely calm.
Xu Fengyu didn't have any doubts.
The new kingdom's declaration of war against the Zhou Dynasty was undoubtedly pulling them to their side and standing on the opposite side of the Zhou Dynasty.
Although it was a newly established kingdom, it had an army of a hundred thousand rogue cultivators, which was a huge hidden danger to the Zhou Dynasty.
Zhao Gao's actions were undoubtedly beneficial to Xu Fengyu's plan to take over the Zhou Dynasty.
"If Sect Master Zhao needs it, I'll send the army of England and underwater beast cultivators to assist Sect Master Zhao and take over the western region of the Zhou Dynasty. What do you think?" a signature smile appeared on Xu Fengyu's face as he nodded.
"If we really can't do it, we'll definitely ask for your help. I hope you won't refuse when the time comes." Zhao Gao said calmly.
"Sect Master Zhao, don't worry. The army of England and the beast cultivators will definitely arrive at any time to help you!" Xu Fengyu laughed out loud. Zhao Gao's actions were beyond his expectations, and it was exactly what he wanted.
"Since you have agreed, I hope that fellow Daoist and your subordinates, England, and the underwater beast cultivators will abide by it. If you violate it, it will be regarded as a breach of contract!" Zhao Gao cupped his hands and said.
"I've already made a promise, and I won't go back on it." Xu Fengyu said.
"It's a pleasure working with you and me. Please don't use the giant eye again, or I'm afraid I'll overthink it."
It was the method Xu Fengyu had used to spy on and eavesdrop on them.
He was warning Xu Fengyu since they were working together, it was best not to spy on The Trap again. Otherwise, Zhao Gao would think it was a breach of contract.
How could Xu Fengyu not understand the meaning behind Zhao Gao's words?
An endless amount of blood-red light shot out and instantly dyed the entire stone house red.
The wind suddenly blew, and Xu Fengyu, who was in front of the stone door, disappeared.
"Sect Master Zhao..." Gu Mingzhou heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly walked towards Zhao Gao, wanting to ask about the war with the Zhou Dynasty.
Zhao Gao waved his hand to interrupt and turned to give Zhen Gang a look.
Zhen Gang walked in front of the stone door, made a hand seal, and pointed at the stone door.
When his finger touched the stone door, a powerful invisible wave of air instantly filled the entire stone house, emitting an aura of isolation.
This was an isolation formation!
Gu Mingzhou looked up and sized up the entire stone house. Zhao Gao interrupted him because he was worried Xu Fengyu was still spying on them.
He staggered towards the bed. His injuries were still not healed and it was indeed a big burden.
Gu Mingzhou hurriedly went forward to help Zhao Gao up and sent him back to bed.
"You're thinking about why you agreed to Xu Fengyu's request and why you declared war on the Zhou Dynasty? Zhao Gao, who sat back on the bed, looked at the silent Gu Mingzhou.
"I can understand why Sect Master Zhao agreed to work with Xu Fengyu, but why did you declare war on the Zhou Dynasty?" Gu Mingzhou pursed his lips and replied.
"I don't understand either. We can't fight against the Zhou Dynasty at all. It's very disadvantageous for us." Zhen Gang also said doubtfully.
"Before I answer you, can you answer my question first?" faced with the two's confusion, Zhao Gao calmly said,
"How much of Xu Fengyu's explanation that he's approaching the end of his life and is only here for revenge do you believe?" Zhao Gao continued to ask.
Gu Mingzhou fell silent.
If you asked him how much he believed Xu Fengyu's explanation, he didn't even believe 30% of it.
He was very familiar with his brutal style.
However, they didn't know what kind of person Xu Fengyu was, so they naturally couldn't make a final judgment.
Even though Xu Fengyu's words were impeccable, Gu Mingzhou still felt something was wrong, even if he could not find the problem.
They all chose to remain silent. They could not answer this question.
"Actually, I think Xu Fengyu didn't tell the truth!" Zhao Gao had already anticipated their reactions.
"What?"
Gu Mingzhou and Zhen Gang were very surprised.
Zhao Gao, who had agreed to cooperate with Xu Fengyu and was prepared to declare war on the Zhou Dynasty, suddenly said that Xu Fengyu was not telling the truth, which shocked them.
"He didn't tell the whole truth!" Zhao Gao explained.
"He didn't tell the whole truth?" Gu Mingzhou asked, puzzled.
"The destruction of the world cultivators is true, the sneak attack of the Murong clan is true, and Xu Fengyu's revenge is also true. However, what he said about his time limit and his pure revenge may not be true!" Zhao Gao explained.
A world cultivator's life span would not exceed ten thousand years.
However, it had been tens of millions of years since Xu Fengyu had been suppressed.
If his time was up, he would have died long ago.
It wasn't because he just happened to break the seal and enter the end of his life.
Moreover, his right arm didn't look like it had dried up due to the end of his life. Instead, it looked like it had suffered some kind of heavy injury.
Therefore, Xu Fengyu was actually carrying out some kind of conspiracy.
This secret was extremely harmful to one's essence, energy, and spirit. Therefore, he had no choice but to destroy the three major rogue cultivator islands to replenish his essence and blood.
"The Xu Fengyu just now felt a lot more reserved. Although I still felt a dangerous aura from him, it didn't seem to be strong." Gu Mingzhou muttered.
"The last two times you saw Xu Fengyu, what kind of feeling did he give you?" Zhao Gao said.
Gu Mingzhou kept recalling when he first met Xu Fengyu and how he felt when he faced him just now.
Xu Fengyu's change.
"It's like I'm seeing a fake Xu Fengyu." He didn't know if he was right, but he still said it.
"Tell me about it." Zhao Gao became interested and asked.
The first time he met Xu Fengyu, the World God was peerless and magnificent.
It was as if he was above the heavens and earth, looking down on all living things.
With a raise of his hand, hundreds of rogue cultivators from the heavenly spirit realm died.
The person who had helped him escape was also killed by him. He was extremely decisive and had the intention to kill Gu Mingzhou.
Later, when he saw Xu Fengyu, his aura was obviously much weaker, perhaps because he was possessing Liu Dong.
However, his domineering aura had completely disappeared. Not only did he not attack Gu Mingzhou, but he also wanted to use Liu Dong's body to escape.
