Chapter 498 Swearing to Heaven

Ning Chen narrowed his eyes, stared at Han Gaochi on the top of the city, and sneered: "Are you serious about the last condition?"

Han Gaochi smiled bitterly in his heart, this is not what he meant.

He thought it was outrageous to let the King of Daxuan Town kneel before the monarch of another country.

"King of Town, this general is just conveying the meaning of my King of Xiliang."

"If you don't agree, we can only fight to the death... The king said that we can afford it, but I'm afraid that you, King of Town, can't afford it."

Han Gaochi didn't know what this sentence meant?

But the King of Xiliang asked him to say this to Ning Chen, so he could only do it.

Ning Chen's face suddenly sank.

The Xiliang royal family knew that the Immaculate Ice Lotus was used to treat Emperor Xuan.

Indeed, Xiliang could afford it, but he couldn't.

No matter how weak the Xiliang army was, it would not be a problem to stop him for a few months.

I'm afraid that Emperor Xuan won't be able to wait until that time.

Ning Chen said coldly: "I'll tell you, Xiliang Royal Family, I agree to all the conditions except the last one."

"Within a month, if I can't see the Immaculate Ice Lotus...then you can keep it for yourselves, I don't want it anymore."

"But listen to me clearly, I swear to heaven that by that time, I will use all my great power and personally lead a million troops to visit Xiliang...I can guarantee that the entire Xiliang will completely disappear from history."

"If I can't do it, I am willing to be struck by five thunders and be destroyed in body and soul."

Han Gaochi's face suddenly changed.

Ning Chen dared to make such a poisonous oath, it seems that he was not joking.

Ning Chen said calmly: "Send a pigeon to the Xiliang royal family. Three days are enough... Send the Immaculate Ice Lotus as fast as possible. Ten days are enough."

"I will give you thirteen days. If you can't see the Immaculate Ice Lotus... Then I don't want it. We will go to war directly."

"For the rest of my life, I have only one goal, that is to destroy your Xiliang Kingdom and make you completely disappear from history... Even if it costs my life, I will not hesitate!"

Han Gaochi's face was solemn.

If someone else said this, he would definitely sneer.

But the person in front of him was the Great Xuan God of War Ning Chen.

Nanyue had strong soldiers and horses, but not long ago, Ning Chen led his army to break through three cities.

Ning Chen didn't talk nonsense with him anymore, retreated, and let the army station again.

Han Gaochi didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly wrote back to the Xiliang royal family.

......

In a blink of an eye, it was the deadline Ning Chen gave to the Xiliang Kingdom.

These ten days, Ning Chen was anxious.

Fortunately, Wu Tiezhu brought a large number of explosive packs a few days ago.

If Xiliang dares to do something again this time, don't blame him.

The thirteenth day.

Early in the morning, Ning Chen ordered the army to be ready.

If Xiliang does not hand over the Immaculate Ice Lotus this time, he will attack the city without hesitation.

Ning Chen sat on the horse and asked someone to bring Che Mingzhe over.

"General Che, do you think your Xiliang royal family will hand over the Immaculate Ice Lotus this time?"

Che Mingzhe remained silent.

Ning Chen said indifferently: "You don't think I have a good temper, do you?"

"You'd better pray that your Xiliang royal family doesn't do anything this time, otherwise I will let you see with your own eyes the scene of this city without any grass or chickens and dogs."

It was not until noon that Han Gaochi appeared on the top of the city.

In addition, there was a middle-aged man.

This person was dressed in brocade and had an extraordinary demeanor.

"King of Daxuan Town, please come forward and talk."

The voice of the shouting soldier sounded on the top of the city.

Ning Chen went forward alone with Che Mingzhe to negotiate with Xiliang.

With his current skills, he was sure to escape unscathed even if the soldiers on the city wall shot arrows.

Moreover, he had Che Mingzhe as a shield.

Ning Chen also saw the middle-aged man in brocade clothes and extraordinary demeanor.

"Zhen Guo Guo is indeed very courageous. He dared to come alone."

Ning Chen narrowed his eyes and looked at him, "Who are you?"

"Xiliang Judge, Xing Shan."

Ning Chen thought about it and immediately understood.

Judge is equivalent to the Minister of Justice.

But Xiliang Judge has the power to execute first and report later, which is much more powerful than the Minister of Justice of Daxuan.

Xing Shan said calmly: "Daxuan Zhen Guo Guo, I have heard of your great name for a long time. It is a great honor to meet you today!"

Ning Chen was too lazy to talk nonsense. He only cared about the Immaculate Ice Lotus.

"Where is the thing I want?"

Xing Shan stretched out his hand, and the attendant beside him presented a beautifully crafted box with both hands.

Ning Chen's eyes lit up slightly.

Xing Shan said, "The things you want are here. Should King Zheng keep his promise?"

Ning Chen said calmly, "Give me the things. As long as the things are fine... I will withdraw my troops immediately."

Xing Shan sneered, "How can I trust you?"

Ning Chen said word by word, "My words are as good as gold."

Xing Shan shook his head, "Please ask King Zheng to withdraw his troops first, return Linxuan City, and promise that you will never violate the border of Xiliang again... I will definitely offer you the Immaculate Ice Lotus when the time comes."

Ning Chen's eyes were cold, "Then how can I trust you?"

Xing Shan smiled, "Does King Zheng have any choice?"

Ning Chen's eyes flickered, "Open the box and let me take a look."

"No problem!"

Xing Shan opened the box.

Ning Chen squinted and looked at it. The dried white nine-petal lotus in the box was well preserved.

Ning Chen's hand quietly rested on his lower back and said, "Come forward a little, I can't see clearly."

Xing Shan smiled slightly and closed the box.

"I heard that King Zhen is very skilled. This city wall is only seven or eight feet high. An ordinary expert can reach this distance by firing a hidden weapon."

Ning Chen narrowed his eyes slightly.

This punishment is good, but cautious.

As long as he dared to stretch his hand outside the city wall, his own flying knife would hit his wrist and make the box fall.

Ning Chen silently released his hand holding the dagger.

Xing Shan said: "It's not that I can't trust King Zhen, but I'm just careful about sailing the ten thousand year ship."

"I, the King of Xiliang, have pardoned King Zhen's request to kneel down to receive the Wugou Ice Lotus. I hope King Zhen will not make things difficult for us."

"As long as the king of Zhen withdraws from Xiliang, this innocent ice lotus will be delivered to you."

"King Zhen can also try to break through the city gate, capture me, and steal the Wugou Ice Lotus... However, it only takes a moment for me to destroy Wugou Ice Lotus, and I'm afraid King Zhen won't be able to do it in time."

Ning Chen looked at him expressionlessly, "This Wushou Ice Lotus has dried up, is it still useful?"

Xing Shan's expression was joking, "Didn't King Zhen just say he didn't see clearly?"

Ning Chen was choked and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

Xing Shan said with a smile: "The efficacy of this Innocent Ice Lotus is naturally not as good as when it was first picked, but we have preserved it in a special way and the efficacy has not been affected much. King Zhen can rest assured about this."

Ning Chen nodded slightly.

"I can withdraw my troops...but if you dare to make any mistake, I guarantee that you will regret it."

Xing Shan nodded, "I know who the King of Wushou Ice Lotus is asking for... Xiliang doesn't want to challenge the King of Zhen's bottom line. As long as the King of Zhen keeps his promise, we will naturally not break his promise."

"Of course, I hope that when King Zhen gets the Pure Ice Lotus, I can also see the compensation of 10 million taels of silver."

Ning Chen frowned, "Do you think I will bring so much money with me when I go out to fight?"

"That is the king's own business, and I have no right to interfere."

Ning Chen said calmly: "Okay!"
