Chapter 339
Qingyun Country, a million miles to the south.

Yan Dynasty, Imperial Capital, Hellfire City.

Red walls, red tiles, and even the ground are paved with red glazed floor tiles. At first glance, the imperial city of Yan Dynasty looks like a sea of ​​flames. In the deep palace, on the sky fire platform with a height of three hundred feet, the emperor Huoyu (yu) of Yan Dynasty is holding his breath. Concentrating on it, use the smallest bird hair brush to carefully outline a very neat meticulous painting.

Following Huo Yu's movements, the air on the huge sky fire stage twisted and everything floated. The robes of the maids and eunuchs who stood waiting in the distance moved automatically without wind, and the cheek muscles of many people were distorted and uneven by invisible forces. .

Many court ladies and eunuchs had to concentrate their mana and secretly cast spell restraints, so that they could barely stand still under the endless pressure from all around them, so as not to make abnormal movements and disturb Huo Yu.

Only a few old eunuchs whose cultivation base was extremely deep and who had reached the perfection of the golden lotus could stand by Huo Yu's side as if nothing had happened, and compliment Huo Yu's painting skills with a smile on his face.

It was as if Huo Yu didn't hear the compliments from the old eunuchs.

His face was cold and serious, and the slender pen in his hand was also meticulous in each stroke, but his heart was like a river and a sea, and he was very noisy.

He has suppressed his realm for 300 years!

300 years ago, he reached the ultimate consummation of the Golden Lotus Realm.

However, according to the ancestral precepts of the Yan Dynasty, even this is an unspoken rule common to several surrounding dynasties—once the reigning emperor breaks through the golden lotus planting state and breaks through to the "Golden Lotus Opening" state, he must abdicate to the virtuous, and then devote himself to pure cultivation!
But... having tasted the sweet fragrance of power, which reigning emperor is willing to give up power and abdicate obediently?
It's still a 'but', if you don't abdicate, those old guys in the clan, especially those fathers, grandfathers, great-grandfathers who have retired before, may have let you go?
So... Huo Yu began to suppress his cultivation 300 years ago, and his cultivation stagnated for 300 years. For 300 years, he didn't even take a single pill, didn't even drink a bowl of spiritual tea, and didn't even drink a bowl of spiritual tea. Not even a single Lingmi was eaten.

For 300 years, he has been drinking the most ordinary spring water, drinking the most ordinary tea, and eating the most ordinary fruits and vegetables just like the most ordinary Li people.

Even when he loves his concubines, he dare not look for those concubines who have a good cultivation base—for fear that some concubine will be "rebellious", and will suddenly use the technique of yin and yang harmony for him, input a little cultivation base into him, and force him to Breakthrough.

Rao is so cautious and cautious, careful and careful, for 300 years, he has been suppressed to the extreme, and has reached the point where he has to break through. If he continues to suppress, it will cause huge damage to the soul and the body.

In three years at most, he will have to abdicate!
The lotus seed of the Dao in the body has been fragmented, and the Dao Rhyme of penance has filled the whole body, and it may break through the blockade of the body at any time, lingering and evolving with the world's Dao Rhyme of the outside world, and then break through the realm.

Therefore, Huo Yu's every move now will trigger the visions of the surrounding world.

I can't hold it anymore!

"Those rebels have been jumping around a lot lately." Huo Yu carefully sketched a butterfly, and said lightly, "I can't let them have such a good time...cause them a little trouble... I worked so hard back then After defeating those brothers, it was so easy for them to ascend to the throne, why are they so easy?"

"It doesn't matter if the family behind them, or the sect, or any messed-up people... don't have any blood, don't cut any flesh, hehe, don't think of passing me by so peacefully."

Huo Yu squinted at a few confidant old eunuchs: "Among them, how many benefits can be blackmailed, you can figure it out... You are all old people who have been with me for so many years. , everyone is offering to you, whatever you want, you will naturally have it!"

"But when we are no longer in power, we will rely on the fixed amount of dead resources allocated by the clan every year... Hehe, what is the difference from beggars?"

"So, be more ruthless in your attack and darker in your heart, and don't be soft-hearted just because they are my sons..."

Huo Yu said indifferently: "Don't give me face, don't be like my great-grandfather, everyone said he was 'benevolence', hehe, benevolence has been reaching out to his children and grandchildren every year to cause famine...Are you kidding me?"

The eyes of several old eunuchs flickered coldly, and they glanced at each other quickly.

"You have to be ruthless, you must be ruthless... Even, you might as well find a few who are suitable for surgery, and just flatten their nine clans... By the way, in our Yan Dynasty, you can figure out which wealthy families are the richest now."

"I can still support it for about three years... In three years, you can see how many companies can be eliminated, which is the best."

"Also, in the past three years, the state treasury, and those resources in the clan's public treasury... can be greedy for as much ink as you can. In the past 300 years, you have been too cautious in your actions."

"Courage can be a little bigger... the steps can be taken a little further... the hands can be darker and heavier!"

"To make our lives easier in the future, earn more, even if the means are despicable... don't be shabby."

Huo Yu taught the old eunuchs a lesson earnestly.

The old eunuchs nodded desperately, like vicious dogs that had been hungry for several days and couldn't wait to bite.

Light footsteps sounded, and a red-robed eunuch between old and middle-aged, holding a thin scroll in both hands, walked in quietly.There were still more than ten feet away from Huo Yu's painting table, and the eunuch had already bowed down: "Your Majesty, the news from Qingluo Immortal City..."

Huo Yu was slightly stunned, put down the brush, and pointed towards the scroll in the eunuch's hand.

The finger-thick scroll, which was more than one foot long, suddenly released immeasurable clear light, and unfolded with a "crash" move, turning into a giant banner with a width of three feet and a length of hundreds of feet, spinning rapidly around the Skyfire Platform.

Countless cyan words spewed out from the banner, and each word was shining with a strange light.

A deep and powerful voice came from the clear sky: "The hundred-year tribute, five years in advance, you and other vassal states, make preparations quickly, and don't miss the deadline."

Huo Yu's face suddenly changed slightly.

Just as Qingyun Kingdom is a vassal of the Yan Dynasty, the Yan Dynasty is also a vassal of the more powerful 'Xian Dynasty' Yunluo Ancient Country.

Qingyun Kingdom pays tribute to Yan Dynasty every ten years.

In the same way, every hundred years, Yan Dynasty would also pay tribute to the ancient Yunluo kingdom with countless rare treasures and countless cultivation resources.Even fine wine and delicacies, top-quality furnaces, etc., also need to be prepared innumerably.

In particular, every time a tribute was paid, the emperor of the Yan Dynasty had to go to Qingluo Immortal City in person.

In Qingluo Immortal City, the emperor of the Yan Dynasty should be like a courtier, bowing down to the emperor of the ancient Yunluo country, and even an ordinary courtier of the ancient Yunluo country could show off his power in front of the emperor of the Yan Dynasty and make trouble for them.

Huo Yu thought that there were still five years left for this hundred-year tribute, and by then he would have abdicated and let the virtuous, and this time the tribute would be nothing to do with him—but, the ancient Yunluo Kingdom didn't talk about kingly ways, and actually moved the time forward ?
There was a faint light in his eyes, and he quickly scanned the blue text flying all over the sky.

Huo Yu frowned.

For a long time, the tributes and tributes to the ancient country of Yunluo have been prepared by the major vassal states themselves.Anyway, no one dared to fool the ancient Yunluo country. All the tributes were naturally first-class goods, and the total amount was an astronomical figure.

But this time, the tribute was not only advanced, but also directly sent a list with Luogu Kingdom, asking Yan Dynasty to make preparations according to the resources listed on the list.

Those extravagant and fun things are gone.

All the fine wines and delicacies, rare silks and satins, all kinds of beauties, all kinds of handsome children, etc., have all disappeared.

Instead, there are various cultivation resources.

Especially the amount of rare metal ore that can be used to forge magical weapons, it makes Huo Yu's heart bleed.

Yanchao specializes in more than a dozen rare fire-attributed metal ores, which can be used to forge all kinds of giant weapons of war, especially some terrifying war tools with devastating power, which must be forged with these fire-attributed metal ores The core of energy.

In the list sent by Yunluo Ancient Country, the names at the top of the list are the names of the concentrated fire-attribute metal ores in this market.

And the number marked on the back almost made Huo Yu vomit blood.

"What is this for... This Xuanwen earth fire gold can be used to forge Houtian spirit weapons, but it needs to be extracted from the earth fire ore veins. My Yan Dynasty produces only a million catties a year, and we are actually required to pay a tribute here. Thirty million catties?"

"3000 million catties, what is this for? What is it for?"

"Xuanwen Earth Fire Gold, an ordinary magic weapon, as long as three coins are mixed in, it can make this ordinary magic weapon have its own lava fire, and its lethality will be increased by more than ten times... 3000 million catties, this, this... ..."

Huo Yu looked at the list with a gloomy face: "How much Xuanwen's Huojin is left in the treasury?"

An old eunuch thought for a while, and said in a low voice: "It's not too bad, that's all I have saved over the years? Your Majesty, you mean..."

Huo Yu licked the corner of his mouth, and cursed in a low voice: "Don't be particular...Of course we know that there are eyes and ears of the ancient Yunluo Kingdom in Yan Chaochao Hall... But, knowing our inventory so clearly, holding this Numbers give us a list... This is too unavoidable, too careless, just be a little scruples!"

As the suzerain state, the spies were sent to find out the family background of the vassal state, and then directly opened the mouth, pinching the red line to demand that the vassal state donate left and right property... Even if it was a robbery, it would not do that!

Really, don't pay attention!
But... Huo Yu narrowed his eyes: "The Ancient Yunluo Kingdom is the most particular among the surrounding fairy dynasties. Dressing and etiquette are the most particular... This time, they are suddenly so careless... Hiss, something is wrong , something on this list is not right..."

"Is this going to... a war?"

Huo Yu's face turned pale: "This is going to happen, let's start a war!"

"With whom? With whom?" Huo Yu hissed, "It's just an ordinary thing for us vassal states to fight with each other and kill or injure three to five million people."

"This is Yunluo Ancient Country, preparing for war!"

"It, who is it going to fight with? Which fairy dynasty?"

A group of old eunuchs turned pale with fright.

What a giant Yunluo ancient country, if it is preparing for war, then once the war starts, the Yan Dynasty, a vassal state, will be like cannon fodder, and may be in danger of being destroyed at any time.

"Call the nine generals of the Nine Army Mansion back to Hellfire City... Hurry up!"
