Sir, this is not how bad women are used.

During all these years of development and expansion, the Yama Empire has never even negotiated or accepted surrender. It does not accept any negotiations or agreements, and it is impossible to become a vassal state of the Yama Empire.

Either the royal nobles of the warring countries would simply abandon their cities and flee, or they would fight to the death and be incorporated into the Yama Empire as one of its provinces.

Chu Yan knew this, of course. Although he had the intention of betraying Sister Ye Na, he still confessed some of the inside story:

"In the past, the Empire was able to maintain its strong and arrogant attitude for a long time, thanks to its rapid development. But now, the Empire has also encountered some problems at the level of core scholars..."

It is difficult to summarize the thoughts of the imperial scholars in a few words, so Chu Yan had to start a long speech to analyze the fatality of this situation to the empire, as well as some problems exposed by the war in the mysterious city-state.

While Chu Yan was talking nonstop, more and more people came into the living room.

Shanoya frequently went up and down the stairs, taking her daily walk to drink water and relax her brain, similar to a break between classes. After walking for a while, she would return to her room to continue pondering the "original manuscript" given by the Witch of Sorrow.

Sometimes she would come down with Janet. The two of them would happen to see Chu Yan and others talking about serious matters, so they would sit on the empty sofa and listen together.

When the two military officers heard the keyword "Yama Empire", they naturally came over to listen to what was going on.

The two did not sit down, but stood behind Chu Yan's sofa and listened closely.

Since Chu Yan wanted to talk about the Yama Empire, he had to reveal the details of his relationship with Princess Yana. The taboo-holders were all familiar with Princess Yana, but the mothers had limited understanding of her.

The topic has turned to Princess Ye Na, so it is inevitable to mention the matter of the Tianling tribe town. It is a good opportunity to explain to him the reason for Chu Yan's recent depressed mood to avoid worrying his companions.

Although this left Chu Yan with no secrets at all, the women in the living room were all having affairs with him and were trustworthy, so this secret would come to light sooner or later.

Perhaps it was because Chu Yan inadvertently mentioned the keyword "nightmare space" that the necromancer sister was lured out.

She appeared in the living room at some point and sat with Shanoya and the others. She thought it was some kind of magic discussion meeting and listened attentively with a serious look on her face.

Although Isis was a little puzzled as to why this lecture was so watered down and why so much talk was made about the empire, as long as the core essence was there, she could barely accept it.

Gradually, more and more people gathered in the living room, even Aunt Nancy came out.

She originally wanted to take a break and confirm what Weilin was doing so that she could secretly go to sleep for a while, but she ended up seeing a room full of people discussing something in a serious manner.

If Nancy was absent, Weilin would inevitably take the opportunity to say something about her afterwards, saying that she didn't care about the important matters of her teammates.

Aunt Nancy was helpless and reluctant, but she still came over to listen.

As the narrator, Chu Yan was very puzzled as to why there were suddenly so many people.

Weren’t there only three mommies there at the beginning, and they were just having a simple chat!

"...Ahem, that's roughly the situation. Judging from the relationship with the Imperial Princess, the cooperation can be trusted, but we can't be sure of the Emperor Yama's intention. A sudden thought from him can ruin all the cooperation efforts.

However, I am not saying that we must cooperate with the Empire. This is not a certainty. The only thing that is certain is that the Gospel Church can no longer be trusted."

Chu Yan would not rely on the good relationships he had with Princess Ye Na and Aunt Fengqin to be confident that he could achieve long-term cooperation with the empire.

His highest expectation for the Yama Empire was just temporary cooperation before opening the "gate".

Once you pass through this level of the world, a fallout is very likely, and it will depend on who can react faster to the other person's change of attitude.

Of course, this is all afterthought. It is indeed a premeditated fall-out in the future.

760

It's a bit too advanced. Now there's not even a hint of cooperation.

Regardless of how far the relationship with the empire will go, the attitude towards the Evangelical Church is certain.

And what’s amazing is that in addition to choosing the Empire, Chu Yan can also choose the Sanctuary of Discipline.

Walking across the road in front of the door, there was a conversation waiting for him at Princess Melissa's house across the street.

Neither side is Chu Yan's only choice.

After hearing this, Ai Falin sighed deeply, shook her hair lightly, and said:

"It's hard to imagine that this is the power situation after the world entered the countdown stage. I thought that during the Crystal Forest period, all forces had completed internal unification and could concentrate on dealing with external affairs. How come it is getting worse and worse?"

Who says it isn't true? The most fierce conflict at the beginning was nothing more than the internal power struggle among the kingdom forces. In terms of scale, these kingdom struggles can be ignored. They will only affect the manpower problem of adventurers.

Adventurers don't just pop out of stones; the countries they come from will more or less involve some of them.

Now, the two largest forces have encountered some problems. The situation on the Empire side is not so bad and it is not a big problem.

The church is the most troublesome.

In particular, the church is equivalent to a hub. Many small and medium-sized forces are gradually united with the church as the core. There is not much contact between those forces, and they can come together only with the help of the church's face.

The church has disbanded, and if these small and medium-sized forces want to reunite, it will take a lot of time and energy.

Weilin listened to her son's analysis and wanted to get up to get a glass of water, but she was afraid that if she walked away for a while, Tiffany would take her place.

Weilin hesitated for a moment, then took Chu Yan's teacup and drank some water to moisten her throat, saying:

"From the perspective of the cooperation between the Dragonborn and the church system, the Gospel Church has become suspicious. We can transfer this relationship to the Sanctuary of Discipline. Chu Yan happened to have had contact with the Sanctuary of Discipline because of the taboos."

Although a bit conservative, it is indeed a solid solution strategy.

Tiffany did not speak on this issue. After all, she was not involved in the general affairs of the Dragon Clan, so she just listened.

Miss Janet, the black businessman, participated for a rare moment. She said tentatively:

"How about the Dragonborn Family continue to cooperate with the Sanctuary of Discipline, and Chu Yanyue Feiqun 694936135 set up his own company? This way we will have more choices."

Author's note: This is really chapter 250, I just wrote the wrong chapter number before

Chapter 17: The Opportunity for the Witch Society to Appear (-)

There is nothing wrong with starting one's own business from a practical point of view, but to some mothers, it sounds a bit like "the kid has grown wings and wants to fly on his own."

If Evelyn said this, there probably wouldn't be any problem. Putting aside the fact that she wanted to be Chu Yan's mother, everyone is a member of the Dragon Clan, and theoretically no one would want their clan to become independent. If they really had such an idea, it might be because there really was a similar need in reality.

You have to put your eggs in different baskets to spread the risk.

However, these words were said by Chu Yan's fellow tabooist, which made them somewhat meaningful.

It's hard not to wonder whether Chu Yan secretly instructed Janet to say this!

Considering the situation in recent days, the lord who controls the situation in the Babel city area is actually confined at home by the mothers and not allowed to go out to play. How depressing is that?

Chu Yan couldn't speak up himself, so he might let his companions act as his mouthpiece and test the mothers' reactions.

"Chu Yan...!" Tiffany called her son suddenly.

"Ah?" Chu Yan looked confused.

As the person involved, he hadn't said anything yet, but suddenly he noticed that the mothers' eyes were all focused on him.

"Are you trying to test our attitude?" Weilin's eyes were sharp.

"..."

It took Chu Yan a while to realize what was going on. He was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry. This was too much of a frame-up.

But Janet couldn't be blamed. She was just expressing her thoughts, but was misunderstood by the mothers. The key point was that the misunderstanding was blamed on him.

"Janet, please explain!"

Janet also realized this unintentional misunderstanding at this time, and was really helpless. She explained:

"This is not some indirect hint, just a normal discussion of the plan. Let me analyze it for you..."

Thanks to Chu Yan's ability to get along with everyone, he got to know many forces without realizing it. Although he has not yet reached the level of influencing each force, he has certain dealings with some important figures of each major force.

As for the current situation, Chu Yan, as a member of the Dragon Family, is connected to the Dragon Family with his identity, and can only make one choice to take sides in major events.

But if he goes out on his own, the Dragon Family can make a steady and conservative choice on their own, while Chu Yan will develop in a risky direction and seek new prospects.

This is the current local optimal solution.

The Dragonborn family requires conservatism, which is an extremely normal strategy and has nothing to do with being pedantic or weak.

As a family grows, the leader has more responsibilities to bear. He has to take care of the vulnerable in the group and provide everyone with a stable life.

Fight

761

What is the purpose of fighting and striving? Isn't it the happiness and stability after the struggle is over?

It is no longer possible to take risks in everything, walk on the edge of a knife, and pursue profits in danger.

This is not realistic.

However, the current reality makes it difficult to see which side is the more suitable ally, and conservative strategies even carry some risks.

Therefore, letting Chu Yan become independent and take another path is a more appropriate choice.

If he fails to find his way out, he will return to the protection of his family and his mother.

If he becomes famous, he can provide a new support for the Dragon Family.

Janet talked for a long time, and finally concluded: "I think this is a more mature consideration, rather than Chu Yan being arrogant and wanting to get rid of the family."

Chu Yan couldn't help but complain: "Let's not comment on your analysis, Janet, can you please not mention the second half of your sentence?"

The more he emphasizes that he does not have such thoughts, the more he seems like a guilty thief trying to cover up his mistake.

The living room fell silent for a moment, as everyone waited for the beautiful dragon ladies to speak.

Weilin was still able to consider the overall situation and nodded in agreement with Janet's analysis, but she did not speak because she was not emotionally willing to agree with this decision.

From the perspective of the people in power of the Dragonborn Family, this is indeed a very mature view. The family also hopes that capable young people will go out and make a career for themselves, and finally give back to the Dragonborn Family.

It should be said that this is the development that every family desires.

The family provides an excellent starting platform. Based on this high starting point, future generations can fly higher. Even if the family is not promoted higher and higher, at least it can prevent the family from falling.

But Weilin couldn't bear to let her son run away. She thought that it was enough for her mother to be capable. Did her son still need to work hard to fly away?

Weilin's request to her son was to just stay in her arms and wait for death.

While Weilin was silent, Afaline calmly expressed her brief considerations. She remained skeptical of the empire:

“There are many situations that are still unclear and difficult to evaluate, but Chu Yan is bringing the Forbidden Ones to cooperate with the Yama Empire. Is this...reliable?

In terms of size, Chu Yan's team is still a little weak, even though the empire is now in a bit of trouble."

When Weilin heard this, she agreed with what Aifalin said and said:

“The imperial army in the Tower of Babel is now showing kindness to Chu Yan, perhaps because they are mindful of the life-saving grace of the imperial princess and the size of the entire Dragonborn family.

Once the empire finds out that Chu Yan is just a relatively powerful individual force, I’m afraid they will no longer have the current attitude. ”

Xia Nuoya listened for a long time and also started to share her own views. She mentioned a point that everyone overlooked:

"I think that once Chu Yan sets up his own clan, he will soon become a powerful force, and may even surpass the Dragon Clan in a short period of time. However, if he stays in the Dragon Clan, he will not be able to grow stronger."

Weilin, one of the current rulers of the Dragonborn Family and the mother of an outstanding Dragonborn youth, looked at Shanuoya with subtle eyes, and then examined her son Chu Yan.

The look in his eyes seemed to be saying that the meaning of this test was a bit obvious!

The most amazing thing is that Xia Nuoya added, "If you stay in the Dragon Family, you won't be able to develop." It's hard not to be misunderstood!

Chu Yan did nothing, said nothing, and had no choice but to surrender to prove his innocence. He said:

"Xia Nuoya, don't make it so easy for people to misunderstand what you mean by saying that I can become powerful immediately after I set up my own business? Don't say such nonsense!"

He felt like crying but had no tears left, and he complained in his heart: What's wrong with these two taboo sisters? The way they spoke was as if they were putting him on the fire and flattering him!

He didn't think he had that much ability to be on par with the Dragon Family in such a short period of time.

Without saying too much, even if we exclude the less eye-catching middle-level people in the family, there are still Weilin, Rosta, Afaline, the former clan leader Phoenix, and the non-staff member Tiffany.

Chu Yan's fellow forbidden person is certainly not weak, and with his help, he also obtained the protection of the witches, but it is really unthinkable for him to be on par with the Dragon Family in one go.

Shanuoya is not a girl who likes to joke. She said seriously:

"No kidding, I can analyze this..."

In terms of the current world situation, on the surface it is a confrontation between two giants, but when problems arose in the evangelical church, a potential third force has gradually surfaced, it just lacks a suitable opportunity.

This third force is a bit messy. It is not unified, but is divided into several small forces that are slightly influential!

The largest ones are those super-large ancient families, such as the Meduso family, and there is also a taboo noble lady who used Paradise City as a sanatorium.

At first glance, these families appear to be members of the kingdom’s power, but their voice is independent of the royal family and they have their own decision-making abilities.

The relationship between the two is very subtle. If the kingdom is compared to a small island in a lake, then these families are the towering trees on the island. They seem to be rooted in the island, but in fact they have already rooted to the bottom of the lake.

The role of the kingdom is more like an intermediary between these big families and the church, indirectly achieving friendly relations.
