Beauty and the Bodyguard

That's right, Sima Yi was now the honorary Vice President of the naduo illusion martial Alliance's combat Association. He represented the martial Alliance, so naturally, he wanted peace!

This realm was too high!

The fire Empire's emissary was extremely impressed. Although Sima Yi had destroyed the original Shanlian Empire in a violent and bloody manner, he had now risen to a higher position. His goal was the peace of the entire martial Alliance branch!

"Many thanks, Vice President Sima. Vice President is truly the role model for us human martial artists. For the peace of the naduo illusion martial Alliance branch, you're willing to sacrifice yourself for the greater good. I'm impressed, I'm really impressed!"

The fire Empire's emissary wasn't trying to suck up to him, but he was truly filled with respect for him.

He had also heard that those high-end cultivators might have conflicts with each other, but for the sake of humanity and the darkness demon beast, they would all work together!

"Yes. Since cousin is now the Vice President of the martial Union's combat Association branch, as the Emperor of the Hong Shang Empire, I naturally won't cause any trouble for cousin. Therefore, I plan to sign an Alliance agreement with the surrounding empires to not invade each other in the future. What does the fire Empire think about this?"

Liu Ziyu knew that Lin Yi was thinking about the long term development of the Hong Shang Empire, so he suggested a plan.

This made Lin Yi look at him in a new light.

"Many thanks, Your Majesty! Our fire Empire is willing to sign an Alliance treaty and treat the Hong Shang Empire as our elder brother. Our fire Emperor is also willing to treat His Majesty as his elder brother and pay tribute to him year after year!"

The fire Empire's emissary immediately took the opportunity and agreed.

He didn't dare to say that the fire Empire and Hong Shang Empire were on equal footing after signing the treaty of alliance. Instead, he lowered the status of the fire Empire's side.

Since they were brothers, they would definitely have an elder brother and a younger brother. Although the Emperor of the fire Empire was much older than Liu Ziyu, and could even be his father, he did not feel any pressure acknowledging Liu Ziyu as his brother.

If the blood spirit were to attack them, they could even call Liu Ziyu 'daddy'!

After all, within the martial Alliance's subdivision, there was already a conferred Empire that was the Alliance's leader. In order to avoid suspicion, the fire Empire had made up an elder brother Empire.

"Very well, you may leave now. Ziyu will send someone to discuss the details of the Treaty with you. Tell your Emperor that as long as he maintains a good relationship with the Hong Shang Empire, the fire Empire will continue to prosper!"

Lin Yi waved his hand, dismissing the emissary before turning to Liu Ziyu with a smile."Ziyu, I've rejected the fire Empire's land on your behalf. You don't have any objections, do you?"

"Cousin Zhong da, why are you telling this to your little brother? from an internal perspective, you're my cousin, the former retired emperor. You can decide anything in this Empire with a single word!"

"From the outside, you are the Vice President of the nado illusion martial union branch combat Association. Even the empires under your jurisdiction don't dare to disobey your orders!"

Liu Ziyu quickly waved his hand and laughed,"to be honest, I feel much more at ease with cousin Zhongda making the decision!" That's right, cousin Zhong da, don't treat me like an outsider in the future. Are you trying to embarrass this little brother?"

Lin Yi's return this time made Sima Yun the Emperor, and naturally, he couldn't be the Emperor anymore. That was why Liu Ziyu said "the former emperor."

However, Lin Yi was quite pleased that Liu Ziyu didn't get cocky. He laughed and asked, Ziyu, I'm not asking for the fire Empire's compensation. Do you understand why?"

"I know a little. Cousin Zhong da feels that the Hong Shang Empire should focus on stabilizing itself. After a few consecutive upheavals, we need a period of time to develop steadily. Even if we swallow the fire Empire's territory, it will not be easy to digest it."

Liu Ziyu thought for a moment and continued,""The other option is to take over the fire Empire's territory. They're definitely not happy about it, and might even try to do something behind our backs. Cousin Zhong da will definitely go to the martial Alliance and won't stay in the Hong Shang Empire forever. Instead of making enemies for some small benefits, why don't we try to ease our relationship with the fire Empire? stable development is the best plan!"

"Well said! Ziyu, if you can think this way, there won't be any problems for Hong Shang Empire! However, it's also because I've gone to martial League that they won't dare to make any small moves!"

Lin Yi smiled as he nodded. The main reason he was doing this was because Liu Ziyu was still too young and inexperienced. He didn't lack talent, but he still needed time to turn it into strength.

Before that, the Hong Shang Empire was already enough for Liu Ziyu to do whatever he wanted. There was no point in gaining more land, as it would only hinder Liu Ziyu's growth.

Taking over a part of the fire Empire's territory so easily might cause Liu Ziyu's ego to inflate, and he'd develop a domineering personality-Lin Yi didn't want to see a Liu Ziyu who only knew how to fight.

Since there was no benefit to taking it, then it was better not to take it!

Anyway, if he wanted it, he could take it down at any time!

Of course, the fire Empire would be more peaceful in the future, and Lin Yi wouldn't look for trouble with them for no reason. If they didn't know what was good for them, he could just bring blood ghost around and take over the fire Empire.

"After I'm done here, I'll take part in the martial Alliance's examination. After I pass, I'll be able to enter the Alliance Institute as a teacher. I won't have many chances to return to the Hongshang Empire in the future!"

Lin Yi paused for a moment before explaining his plans."Every Empire must have experts contributing to the martial Alliance when it was established. We are no exception! Entering the Alliance Academy as a teacher is already the best possible outcome. "

"In the future, if anything happens in the Empire, you can come to the Alliance Academy to look for me at any time. I won't stand by and do nothing! If you find any good seedlings with talent and potential, you can also send them to the Academy to cultivate. Although I haven't entered, I think there won't be any problems with such small matters in the future. "

"Cousin Zhong da! You've worked hard!"

Liu Ziyu stood up and bowed to Lin Yi."For the sake of the Hong Shang Empire, cousin Zhong da has sacrificed a lot!"

From Liu Ziyu's point of view, Lin Yi was going to be a teacher, but he was still sacrificing his freedom for the sake of the Hong Shang Empire.

If it wasn't for the fact that he knew he was too weak to go in Lin Yi's place, he might've given up the throne and gone to the martial Alliance.

"We're a family, so don't be so polite!"

Lin Yi waved his hand and turned to the outside of the hall."Before I leave, I still have to do something to repair the great mountain array of the imperial capital!"

One of the Trump cards of the Shanlian Empire was this powerful Shanlian Mountain Formation!

Unfortunately, he was up against a Grandmaster like Lin Yi-he couldn't even unleash the full potential of the formation.

However, this didn't mean that the mountain array wasn't powerful-it was just that Lin Yi was too strong.
