After cultivating immortality for a hundred years, the predecessor has become the daughter of destin

Early in the morning of the second day, soft sunlight poured down on the magnificent and majestic imperial palace, reflecting colorful light.

The court officials were dressed in solemn and gorgeous court robes, each with complicated expressions and different thoughts in their minds. They gathered in twos and threes, whispering to each other as they slowly walked into the court.

Gu Cheng was mixed in the crowd, feeling anxious. The dispute with the beauties yesterday was still lingering in his mind, and Xia Wuyou's announcement of the alliance today made him feel that a big uproar was about to start, and his worries surged like a tide.

In the court, Xia Wuyou wore a dazzling phoenix crown and an extremely gorgeous dragon robe. He sat upright on the dragon throne that symbolized supreme power, exuding a majestic aura.

This was the first time that Gu Cheng saw Xia Wuyou with such a demeanor, and he couldn't help but feel surprised.

Xia Wuyou naturally felt Gu Cheng's gaze, but it was not easy for him to respond at this time.

He glanced at the ministers below, then cleared his throat and spoke slowly: "Today, I have something very important to announce to you."

All the ministers fell silent upon hearing this. Except for a very few who had already noticed something unusual from the imperial capital in the past few days, everyone else looked confused.

Xia Wuyou didn't care what these people thought and directly told the news:

"Now that the dragons have appeared in the world, they are wreaking havoc on the human race. To protect the safety of our race, the human race will form an alliance with the demons and the magic sects to fight the dragon crisis together."

As soon as Xia Wuyou said this, the court was like a lake into which a huge rock was thrown, causing thousands of waves.

Many ministers showed astonishment and disbelief on their faces, and the already quiet discussions became even louder, with a buzzing sound rising one after another.

Among the civil officials on the left, a minister in red robes immediately recovered from his shock. With a look of indignation on his face, he stepped out of the queue, clasped his hands together, and said fiercely:

"Your Majesty! The demons and the devils have always been at odds with our human race. There has been a long-standing grudge. How can we form an alliance so easily? This is undoubtedly inviting a wolf into the house, which will cause endless troubles!"

After that, another minister hurriedly followed, his face full of worry, and echoed:
"Your Majesty is wise! The demons are always cruel and brutal by nature, and treat human life as worthless. The devils are even more treacherous and unpredictable, and their methods are sinister and cruel. If we form an alliance with them, where will the dignity of our human race be? I'm afraid we will be restrained by them in the future and it will be difficult to break free!"

Among the generals, a general in armor also frowned at this time, his face full of worry. He stepped out of the line, clasped his fists and said:
"Your Majesty, the dragon race is indeed a major threat to our race. If we form an alliance with the demon race and the devil, I'm afraid it will cause great panic among the people. They will definitely think that our race has reached the end of its rope and is unable to resist, so they resorted to this desperate measure. The blow to the morale of the people cannot be underestimated."

For a moment, the ministers spoke one after another, and the voices of opposition rose and fell like waves. The entire court fell into chaos, with all kinds of voices intertwined and noisy.

Seeing this chaotic situation, Gu Cheng frowned slightly, stepped forward quickly, clasped his fists and saluted, and said loudly: "My Lords, please listen to me for a moment!"

"Who are you? The gentlemen are discussing important matters of state. How can you have a say?"

Because Gu Cheng was invited to the court by Xia Wuyou at short notice, he was not wearing any court robes. As soon as he opened his mouth, he naturally attracted the attention of the court officials.

Seeing this scene, Xia Wuyou immediately said: "This is the leader of the Changsheng Sect. I personally invited him to discuss state affairs. You must not be rude."

Seeing that Her Majesty the Queen actually endorsed this person personally, everyone naturally did not dare to say anything more. They just stared at the person in front of them, curious about what this person wanted to say.
Gu Cheng naturally would not bother with these mortals. Seeing that no one opposed what he said, he continued, "Everyone, now the dragon race is becoming more and more powerful and aggressive. If our human race relies solely on its own strength, it will be extremely difficult to contend with it."

“But the demons and evil spirits have been entangled in disputes with the human race of Da Xia for thousands of years. How can we just let go of our grudges?” A minister with white hair stepped forward and questioned.

Gu Cheng looked at this person, smiled and explained: "Although the demons and the devils have had many grievances with our human race in the past, they are now also facing a huge threat from the dragons. They also understand the principle of "lips and teeth are cold", so they also have a strong desire to form an alliance. And..."

Having said that, Gu Cheng looked around and said to all the court officials, "Moreover, forming an alliance does not mean that our human race will lose its dignity. On the contrary, it is for the common interests of all parties and is a wise move in this difficult time."

The civil servant who jumped out first snorted when he heard this, and said with disdain on his face: "Humph, you are so easy to say! How do you know that after the demons and the devils form an alliance, they will not suddenly bite us back and stab us in the back? People's hearts are hidden, let alone these demons and monsters who are not of our race!"

Gu Cheng looked calm and responded calmly: "Sir, we can formulate detailed and comprehensive rules and constraints when we form an alliance to clarify the rights and obligations of each party, so as to ensure the interests of all parties. Moreover, the threat of the dragon clan is imminent now, and they also know that if they betray the alliance, they will be in great trouble. So in this case, they dare not act rashly."

Seeing that Gu Cheng was so easy to talk to, another civil servant couldn't help but curl his lips and said, "You are still too naive! Those monsters and demons never take rules seriously. How can they honestly abide by these so-called rules? Don't be so fanciful!"

Xia Wuyou listened quietly to the heated debate among the ministers. He saw that Gu Cheng was explaining sincerely, but he was always being criticized.

Her face gradually darkened, and a hint of displeasure flashed in her eyes. She slapped the armrest of the dragon throne, and the loud sound echoed in the court, instantly quieting the noisy court.

Xia Wuyou glanced at the ministers with a dignified look and shouted, "Enough! I have made up my mind on this matter. The alliance between the human race, the demon race, and the devil is imperative and cannot be questioned!

I know you have some worries and concerns in your hearts, but the situation has reached an extremely critical moment and we cannot afford to hesitate or retreat any longer!"

The civil servant who jumped out at the beginning wanted to argue a few more words, but Xia Wuyou's eyes were stern, and he shot at him like a sharp blade, and said coldly: "Master Zhang, do you know that the leader of the Changsheng Sect standing in front of you is a master of the Daoyun Realm, and even I am not his opponent. Why would such a person be so patient to explain to you again and again?!"

Lord Zhang's heart suddenly trembled, and he looked at Gu Cheng in astonishment. He quickly lowered his head and dared not make any sound.

Xia Wuyou softened his tone, glanced at the ministers, and said slowly: "It's not that I don't know that there are risks in the alliance, but risks and opportunities always coexist. We can also take this opportunity to form an alliance to gain a deeper understanding of the strength and details of the demon clan and the demon sect. It is even possible that in the process of cooperation, we can completely resolve the grievances and contradictions that have been entangled for thousands of years. Isn't this a good thing?"

After hearing what the Queen said, all the ministers were still unwilling in their hearts, but facing the Queen's majesty, they did not dare to openly raise any objections.

Seeing that the ministers had finally quieted down, Xia Wuyou nodded slightly, showing a satisfied look, and said: "In that case, then please invite representatives from all parties to enter the court."

Following Xia Wuyou's order, Qiu Ninglu and Kong Zhaoling walked side by side into the imperial hall.

Upon seeing this, Xia Wuyou also left the dragon throne and walked down to greet the two women in person.

He introduced the identities of Qiu Ninglu and Kong Zhaoling to the ministers one after another, which immediately aroused the excitement of the ministers.

After the three women gathered, Gu Cheng took out the alliance rules that had been discussed last night and began to recite them.

“Please abide by the rules of heaven, and the three-party alliance must abide by the rules.

First, during the alliance, all parties must strictly restrain themselves and not invade or provoke each other. Any violations will be severely punished and will not be tolerated.

Second, in the action against the dragon clan, all parties must obey unified command and dispatch, and must not act on their own or do things their own way, otherwise they will be punished by military law.

Third, the benefits gained by the alliance in the process of fighting against the dragon clan must be distributed according to the principles of fairness and justice, and no party may privately occupy or monopolize them.

If one party violates the oath, the other two parties can jointly attack it. "

After Gu Cheng finished reading the alliance oath, the three women each released a drop of their condensed blood and dripped it onto the imperial edict in Gu Cheng's hand.

With the sound of thunder, the oath was finally fulfilled.

When the ministers saw such a shocking scene, they all nodded, thinking that these rules were reasonable and could protect the interests of the human race to a certain extent.

For a time, the people were cheering "Long live the emperor" and the voices of "the emperor's wisdom and wisdom" were heard everywhere. (End of this chapter)
