Chapter 889 – Mysterious Plan Z

6th month, 15th day, Shanhai City, Xia Palace, West Hall.

At 10 AM, all the famous media outlets in China gathered to witness a glorious moment. The Great Xia Dynasty King and Stone City Lord Wufu were signing a vassal state agreement.

No one expected the recently returned Xia King to throw down such a huge bomb.

10 minutes later, Ouyang Shuo and Wufu appeared together. With many people as witnesses, they signed the agreement.

After which, Ouyang Shuo and Wufu did not leave right away. Instead, they stayed to answer a few of the media’s questions.

The moment their words ended, the reporters all raised their hands. They really wanted to know the inside news. Ouyang Shuo smiled and called for Quick Daily News.

“Xia King, if Stone City is your vassal state, are they still a member of the Shanhai Alliance?”

Ouyang Shuo replied, “Stone City working with the Great Xia Dynasty is still within the alliance structure. It’s just a closer knit cooperation.”

Following which, someone asked Wufu, “Lord Wufu, to suddenly make the Great Xia Dynasty your suzerain state, were you forced to? What happened behind the scenes?”

Wufu was really calm, “The Great Xia Dynasty is the top territory in the world, and the Xia King is my good friend; this cooperation is due to strategic considerations.”

Ouyang Shuo added, “If there was insider news, why would I invite all of you here?”

“Hahaha!”

Friendly laughter broke out within the hall. Whether the people truly believed those words or not, no one knew.

After which, someone asked, “Xia King, as the suzerain state of Stone City, what are your views on the recent conflict between Handan City and Stone City?”

After this person finished his words, the entire hall was silent as they all looked at Ouyang Shuo. The media was the most sensitive, and they could feel that this was the reason for Stone City’s actions.

Ouyang Shuo was prepared for this, and he said solemnly, “As the suzerain state, I have the obligation to protect the safety of Stone City. If Handan City provokes Stone City once more, I would not mind sending troops.”

This was a declaration of war.

‘Hua~~~~’

All of the reporters at the scene were really excited, recording down Ouyang Shuo’s words.

“Scoop, what a big scoop!”

Some reporters even thought of titles for tomorrow such as ‘Great Xia Dynasty declares war on Handan City!’

Ouyang Shuo accepted a few more questions before the ceremony ended. The moment it did, the news of Stone City becoming a vassal state spread across the entire China region.

More hidden currents moved in the China region.

As the top territory in the world, every action by the dynasty would attract attention, much less such huge news. This matter blew up the forums.

Some people even said, “The China region is about to explode.”

At the same time, the 4th legion of the Leopard Legion Corps housed at the border of Zhen An Prefecture were ordered to teleport to Stone City to fulfil the promise.

A few days ago, the Teaching Division led by Cai Mao boarded the 10 turreted ships and proceeded toward Binhai Bay.

Stone City had also started their soldier recruitment operation to prepare to build the Binhai Squadron.

All of this was bad news for Handan City.

...

Zhili Province, Handan City.

After learning that the Great Xia Dynasty and Stone City had signed a suzerainty agreement, Di Chen was in a bad mood. For Di Chen, who wanted to take down the entire province, this was the worst news he could have received.

Yanhuang Alliance had tried to enjoy suzerain treatment from the Yunnan City-State, but they did not get what they wished for. Who knew that the Great Xia Dynasty would be a step ahead of them?

“It seems like our actions against Stone City have backfired.” Di Chen was feeling regret. He did not expect Wufu to be so weak; he was unable to handle even a little pressure.

“What a coward!” Di Chen was furious.

Di Chen’s previous actions were because he wanted to take down Stone City, but he was worried his actions would be too much and would attract the attention of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Di Chen wanted to use the warm water cooking frog method to slowly eat up Stone City. Who knew that the frog would not follow the plan and jumped into the bowl of the Great Xia Dynasty?

“That old fox has benefited from all this.” Di Chen was filled with regret.

Juedai Fenghua was silent at the side. She had actually warned him at the start to not do anything toward Stone City. If he wanted to act, he needed to give them a lethal blow.

However, Di Chen did not listen.

Now was great. Stone City had gone to the Great Xia Dynasty, and the situation was much worse for them.

Di Chen gritted his teeth and suddenly said, “Since it has reached this stage, I need to talk to my grandfather. That matter must be sped up or that old fox is just going to ride on top of our heads.”

The secluded Yanhuang Alliance had not given up on making huge plots.

Seeing that Silver Hand did not bother about the internal affairs of China, the six family elders of the Yanhuang Alliance could not take it and met up to think of a plot.

Just as Di Chen said, if they did not come up with a big plan, they would be slowly ripped apart and swallowed. This concerned the survival of the family, and it was not something that a young man like Di Chen could handle.

The six family elders all knew that the Great Xia Dynasty was getting stronger and stronger each day, and their foundations were growing deeper by the day. Their reputation was soaring toward the heavens.

Such an opponent was just too hard to deal with.

The time left for them was just too little, and the chances for making mistakes were just too few.

If they were like Di Chen, each plan being easily broken, then Yanhuang Alliance would not be able to survive.

Yanhuang Alliance could not take any more big hits.

Hence, the elders used their intelligence and skills to try to craft a huge plan – Plan Z.

However, the plan was just too huge, and the interests were too complicated. Coupled with the fact that it was a six-sided discussion, they still doubted each other, and the plan could not be settled in a day or two.

Originally, Di Chen was patient. However, after this matter, he could not take it anymore.

Juedai Fenghua’s eyes lit up. She knew about this matter, so she asked curiously, “How to deal with the Feng Family is going to be a big problem.”

Di Chen was confident, “My grandfather will have his ways.” Di Chen had the utmost confidence in his grandfather’s ability.

When Fenghua Juedai heard that, she kept silent.

...

Afternoon, Shanhai City, Xia Palace.

Using the chance of signing the agreement, Wufu and Ouyang Shuo had a chat, and the outcome was pretty good. At least their direction was the same.

Wufu was not Xunlong Dianxue, and he would not pick at pieces. He was a utilitarian and aimed at the interests on Planet Hope. As long as he could achieve that, whether or not he had power did not matter.

Just last night, Ouyang Shuo sent letters to Feng Qiuhuang and Gong Chengshi to explain the matter of the agreement to resolve doubts.

Amongst the Shanhai Alliance members, Mulan Yue and Bai Hua had merged with the Great Xia Dynasty, Xunlong Dianxue was kicked out, and Wufu was now a vassal.

Gong Chengshi had once rushed over to visit Ouyang Shuo, and the two had a close relationship.

Toward this, there were rumors that Ouyang Shuo was invasive and built the Shanhai Alliance for bad reasons to try and swallow up his allies.

Ouyang Shuo had no way to defend himself, but he did not need to.

The current dynasty was not one that a rumor could shake. Those rumor makers feared the Great Xia Dynasty and did not even dare to say those things in the open.

Why would Ouyang Shuo bother with such people?

However, even though Ouyang Shuo did not care, it did not mean that other people did not.

Especially Feng Qiuhuang, who was a strong woman. As the remaining solo member of the alliance, some rumors would unavoidably affect her judgment.

Hence, Ouyang Shuo needed to explain to her and describe each of their bottom lines.

In truth, Ouyang Shuo did not plan to mere Fallen Phoenix City into the dynasty. Bai Hua and her were different. Although they were famous in the wilderness, their personalities were different.

Bai Hua was strong, but she did not have the ability. As the big sister of the Consonance Studio and the former leader of a guild, Bai Hua had too many hopes on her shoulders.

Hence, she had no choice but to be strong, to act strong.

In her bones, she did not really care about power, and she would rather be under the lead of a strong person.

To make her face everything alone was not her style. As a result, she agreed with the merger.

Feng Qiuhuang was different.

Just like her name suggested, she was a proud phoenix; stubbornness and a desire for control was ingrained in her bones.

Speaking of which, Feng Qiuhuang was similar to Wu Zetian in history.

Facing such a person, merging Fallen Phoenix City into the system would be restricting her ability and covering her glow.

Ouyang Shuo had been looking forward to the day she became the first queen in the wilderness.
