Chapter 1036: A Storm Is Imminent (1)
The Fu Xiang Emperor could not help but frown. If the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon had designs on the Free Valley, then their previous actions might meet with the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon’s displeasure.
The Kingdom of Fu Xiang and the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon were not comparable. He could not help but look grave.
Shi Dakai also noticed the Fu Xiang Emperor’s concern and hurried to say, “The Queen of Hua Xia is from the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon, but Your Majesty need not worry. She is not an amba.s.sador from the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon, but an enemy.”
“Enemy?” The Emperor of Fu Xiang raised his brows slightly. His pounding heart slowed.
Shi Dakai nodded. “Does His Majesty still remember? A few months ago, the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon sent someone to bring a warrant of arrest to the various countries.”
The Emperor of Fu Xiang nodded slightly, as if he recalled the incident. He remembered wondering why the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon had made such a great effort to capture a young girl… a young girl? The Emperor of Fu Xiang suddenly thought of something and looked at Shi Dakai.
“You mean… the Queen of Hua Xia in the Free Valley is a wanted criminal from the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon?”
“That’s right.” Shi Dakai nodded.
A strange expression flashed across the Emperor of Fu Xiang’s face. He immediately sat up straight and asked, “I remember someone called Ji Fengyan. When you fought her, what was her power like?”
Shi Dakai paled slightly, but answered directly. “Very powerful. I have seen no one more powerful. Honestly, with Ji Fengyan’s power guarding the Free Valley, the Kingdom of Fu Xiang will need all its military power before it even has the possibility of defeating the Kingdom of Hua Xia.”
All its military power?
The Emperor of Fu Xiang gave a slight start. Just one young girl had so much power. How dangerous was the Kingdom of Hua Xia?
“Your Majesty, don’t worry. If you wish to deal with Ji Fengyan, we may not need to act.” Shi Dakai expressed what he had thought about on the journey back. “The Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon has already offered rewards over an enormous area for the capture of Ji Fengyan. The problem was that there was no trace of her. If we reveal Ji Fengyan’s whereabouts to the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon, the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon will certainly be happy to come forward and deal with this troublesome matter.”
Ji Fengyan had wreaked havoc in the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon. Just killing the Eldest Princess alone was sufficient to make the Emperor of the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon hate her guts.
The Emperor of Fu Xiang’s face relaxed a little and a trace of amus.e.m.e.nt lurked in the corner of his lips. “Are you intending to use the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon to get rid of Ji Fengyan? But the Emperor of the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon is not stupid. If the news comes from us, he will be bound to suspect our motives.”
Shi Dakai said, “His Majesty need not be involved in this matter. We only need to use the merchant troops to spread the news. I believe that with the hatred that the Emperor of the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon feels towards Ji Fengyan, he will richly reward any news of her whereabouts. As long as we can leak the rumor within the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon, we need not have a hand in the rest of it.”
The Emperor of Fu Xiang thought for a moment, and felt that the solution was workable, so he nodded.
“You handle this matter. Remember not to allow the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon suspect anything unusual. Otherwise, Fu Xiang cannot withstand the anger of the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon.”
Although there were benefits to using someone to kill another, one had to be careful not to be cut by the sharp knife. The Emperor of Fu Xiang was happy to use this sharp steel knife, in the form of the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon, but he would use it with care.
