You said you could kill the evil spirits without me, why are you crying now?

Chapter 79 is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger, don’t you really know?
After Robert, the envoy of the Lighthouse Empire, and his entourage left, the office fell into silence.

Ji Shengyue sat on a luxurious chair.
His eyes wandered helplessly among the magnificent decorations, but the glittering gold decorations could not bring him any comfort.

Her heart was heavier than ever, because what she hated was not Chuhe, who was thousands of miles away.

But it was Xiao Cangqing, the man she once had high hopes for but who has now become her enemy!

The name Xiao Cangqing was once the pride of Ji Shengyue.
He was a warrior she had trained personally, and she gave him endless trust and resources.

He even disregarded all else and, against all odds, bestowed upon him the title of the Protector of the Nation's War God.

Now Xiao Cangqing has become her biggest enemy, a betrayer who makes her heartbroken.

All those loyalties and vows seemed so pale and powerless in the face of betrayal.

Ji Shengyue's heart was filled with bitterness.

She knew clearly how many people in the current Dajing Empire were pointing fingers behind her back, and how many people hoped that she would step down from the throne as soon as possible.

Every day, people take to the streets of the royal city, chanting her name and demanding her resignation.

Those voices were like sharp blades.

Just then, the office door was pushed open with a loud bang.

Ji Shengyue didn't need to look up to know that the person coming was her mother.

"Do you know what you're doing?"

The middle-aged woman's face was full of anger and disappointment.

He slammed his hands on the table, making a deafening sound.

Ji Shengyue raised his head and looked calmly at his mother who walked in from outside the door.

"Of course I know what I'm doing." Ji Shengyue said calmly: "If I don't do this, the future of the Dajing Empire will be ruined in Xiao Cangqing's hands."

"Destroyed by Xiao Cangqing's hands? I tell you, it was destroyed by you!"

The middle-aged woman roared: “Do you know what the contract you signed means?
Do you know that by doing this you will make the Dajing Empire a vassal of the Lighthouse Empire?

Do you know that what you have done will bring the entire Dajing Empire into an irreparable situation?"

Ji Shengyue listened quietly to his mother's accusations, but his heart was not shaken at all.

She knew what she was doing and what her choice meant, and said: “Of course I know the ambitions of the Lighthouse Empire and what they want.

But my top priority now is to stabilize the domestic situation.

Mother, you asked me to go and beg Chu He, can I get him back?

Chu He has long been in cahoots with Lu Yinhe of the Great Xia Empire.

What use is it other than letting me suffer humiliation in vain?
Besides, Chu He’s biological parents were found in the Daxia Empire. All these factors made it impossible to find Chu He again.

When the domestic situation stabilizes, I will naturally solve the problem of the Lighthouse Empire.

Now Xiao Cangqing is the most unstable and dangerous factor in the entire Dajing Empire."

The middle-aged woman stared at Ji Shengyue steadily.

After a long while, she opened her mouth but didn't utter a word.

The deep disappointment and helplessness were like a heavy hammer, hitting Ji Shengyue's heart again and again.

"Mother, you should know that what the Dajing Empire needs now is decision and action, not endless worry and interference."

Ji Shengyue gently pressed the bell on the desk, and the crisp ringing sound echoed in the empty office.

Several well-trained security personnel quickly entered and stood respectfully beside the two men.

"Please bring the Queen Mother back."

There was no emotion in Ji Shengyue's voice, as if he was just carrying out an official duty.

"The Great Jing Empire is finished. You are a sinner that the people and ancestors of the Great Jing Empire will never forgive."

The middle-aged woman looked at Ji Shengyue, and her eyes, which were once full of love, were now filled with disappointment and determination.

She shook her head gently, and instead of letting the security guard take action, she turned around and slowly left the office.

The figure gradually disappeared at the end of the corridor, leaving behind a heavy silence.

"Mother, you are too pessimistic."

Ji Shengyue said as he looked in the direction his mother left.

……

Green Forest City.

This is the front line of the battle with the warriors of the Dajing Empire.

And Xiao Cangqing, the former god of war who once protected the Dajing Empire, now sits here and has become the new ruler of this land.

Xiao Cangqing stood in front of the window, looking at the tall buildings in the city, with a sharp light in his eyes. He did not get carried away by his recent victory, but became more calm and steady.

The real battle has just begun.
He needed to proceed step by step and gain a firm foothold in the city he had just conquered.

At this moment, the cell phone rang suddenly, interrupting Xiao Cangqing's thoughts.

He quickly picked up the phone, and the voice of the official from the New World Organization came from the receiver.

Xiao Cangqing's expression immediately turned serious.

Although the other party's call was brief, it conveyed an important message.

After the call ended, Xiao Cangqing frowned.

He turned to look at Gao Yimin who was standing beside him. The latter noticed the change in his expression and asked in confusion, "What happened?"

"It seems that our successive actions have caused Her Majesty the Queen a lot of pressure and trouble."

Xiao Cangqing said in a deep voice: "Her Majesty the Queen has chosen to burn her boats to deal with us.

The Dajing Empire has begun signing an alliance contract with the Lighthouse Empire.

Simply put, the troubles that the Dajing Empire will face in the future will also become troubles for the Lighthouse Empire.

The Lighthouse Empire will establish a warrior base in the Dajing Empire and send powerful warriors to take charge in order to protect the peace of the Dajing Empire.

“This is not a secret, so it’s okay to tell you.

We need to reassess our next action plan to ensure we can cope with this new change.”

"Doesn't that mean that we not only have to face resistance from the Dajing Empire, but also have to guard against threats from the Lighthouse Empire?"

The expressions of Gao Yimin and Dai Ju changed, and worry appeared on their faces.

Naturally, they had heard about the recent developments of the Lighthouse Empire.

Those shocking news all demonstrate the Lighthouse Empire's unrivaled status today.

Especially their astonishing number of emperor-level powerhouses is enough to make the entire Blue Planet tremble.

Xiao Cangqing looked at their nervous expressions and smiled slightly: "Don't worry, the New World Organization has said that it will send people to assist us during this period of time.

We can pause our next annexation plan for now and see how the Lighthouse Empire will help the Dajing Empire.

And don't forget, the Lighthouse Empire is not the only powerful empire on the Blue Planet. Other empires are also competing secretly.
Especially the Great Xia Empire that we are close to, where the Chu River is.

According to my speculation, the Lighthouse Empire chose to establish a warrior base in the Dajing Empire, most likely targeting the Daxia Empire. "

In fact, these words were not entirely Xiao Cangqing's speculation, but more of a conclusion drawn by the New World Organization's staff after careful consideration.

But at this moment, he needed to use this method to appease Gao Yimin and Dai Ju's anxiety.

After hearing Xiao Cangqing's analysis, the two women's expressions improved.

Facing a behemoth like the Lighthouse Empire, their strength alone is far from enough.

But with the support of the New World Organization, they feel more confident.

"I'm going to be away for a while."

Xiao Cangqing took a deep breath of smoke and slowly exhaled: "You guys stay here, my phone will be accessible 24 hours a day, you can contact me at any time if there is any situation."

Gao Yimin couldn't help but ask, "Where are you going?"

Xiao Cangqing simply replied: "Go find the old man who's fishing."

There is no need to explain too much, some things do not need to be understood by everyone.

He waved his hand, turned, walked to the window, jumped, and jumped down from the tall building.

With his current strength, even a height of 100 meters cannot cause any harm to him.

Xiao Cangqing's figure drew a graceful arc in the air, then landed steadily on the ground and disappeared from their sight.

……

In the Great Xia Empire, the sun is shining and the sky is cloudless.

Such good weather seems to be paving the way for something to come.

Chu He sat in front of the window, looking at the blue sky and white clouds outside.

He heard about the news that Ji Shengyue had signed an unequal contract with the Lighthouse Empire.

He couldn't help but shook his head and sighed: "Ji Shengyue, Ji Shengyue, why did you make such a stupid decision?

Cooperating with the Lighthouse Empire is like seeking the skin of a tiger. Don't you really know that?"
