The Great Zhou Emperor was an extremely shrewd person. Since the True Man with Long Brows had said it so straightforwardly, how could he not understand?
He cursed the True Man with Long Brows to death in his heart.
He actually took the opportunity to ask me for benefits, you son of a bitch!
I think grandpa calling you a stinky Taoist priest is flattering you. This bastard is too much of a dog.
The Great Zhou Emperor said with a smile, “Our Great Zhou has many divine weapons and sharp tools. If the Daoist needs one, I can give you one.」
The True Man with Long Brows pretended to be flattered and said, “You give it to me? How can I be so embarrassed?」
”However, you are the ruler of a country, and your kindness is hard to refuse. Since you have already spoken, if I don’t take it, wouldn’t it make you lose face?」
”In that case, I’ll be disrespectful if I refuse.」
”Thank you!」
The True Man with Long Brows also pretended to clasp his fists and bow.
The Great Zhou Emperor saw through the True Man with Long Brows’ little trick at a glance and was not angry. He asked, “Daoist, I wonder what kind of weapon you need?」
The Long-browed True Man said: “Any of the eighteen types of weapons like knives, spears, swords, and halberds will do. The magical skill I have learned mainly emphasizes two words, not picky.」
The Great Zhou Emperor heaved a sigh of relief. This is easy to handle. The Great Zhou has no shortage of divine weapons.
”Daoist, wait a moment. I will now order someone to fetch them.” Just as the Great Zhou Emperor was about to call someone, he was stopped by the Long-browed True Man.
”Wait a minute.」
The Long-browed True Man said: “Although my magical skill is not picky about weapons, it has a rather high requirement for the grade of weapons.」
”Well, I won’t make it difficult for you. Just find a random imperial weapon for this poor daoist!」
”You have imperial weapons, right?」
As soon as these words were spoken, not only did the face of the Great Zhou Emperor turn green, but the King of Zhou was so angry that he jumped up.
”Damned daoist, don’t push your luck!」
”Asking for an imperial weapon right away. Do you think imperial weapons are junk and everywhere?」
”If you dare to make such an excessive demand again, be careful I’ll whip you!」
The Great Zhou Emperor then said: “Daoist, I’m really sorry. Imperial weapons… we really don’t have any.」
The Long-browed True Man was stunned: “No way. You can’t even take out a single imperial weapon? Your Great Zhou is too poor!」
The Great Zhou Emperor’s mouth twitched with anger.
It’s not that the Great Zhou didn’t have imperial weapons, but he didn’t want to give them to the Long-browed True Man, and it was impossible to give them to the Long-browed True Man because that was the imperial weapon that guarded the country, the foundation of a country!
What made him angry was that the Long-browed True Man actually said that the Great Zhou was poor.
Damn it, are you rich? Then why are you still asking us for an imperial weapon?
King Wu of Zhou pointed at the Long-browed True Man and cursed: “You have the nerve to say that our Great Zhou is poor. Do you still have a face? Don’t forget that the imperial weapon that you are wearing is our Great Zhou’s clan-protecting imperial weapon!」
The Long-browed True Man waved his hand and said: “Since there is no imperial weapon, then give me five peerless holy weapons. This request is not excessive, right?」
Is this still not excessive?
You are so fucking shameless!
The Great Zhou Emperor said: “Peerless holy weapons are okay, but only one can be given to you.」
Three pieces!” said the Long-browed True Man. “Not a single piece less.」
One piece!” said the Great Zhou Emperor. “If the Taoist agrees, I will give it to you now. If you don’t agree, then you can leave.」
The attitude is resolute.
There is no room for negotiation at all.
The Long-browed True Man said displeased: “One piece is one piece. Who told us to be old buddies?」
I’m not your old buddy at all.
Shameless!
The Great Zhou Emperor stretched out his hand, and a dagger appeared in his palm. He threw it to the Long-browed True Man and said: “Here you are.」
The Long-browed True Man took the dagger, pulled it out and took a look, and said to the Great Zhou Emperor: “Is this thing a peerless holy weapon? I don’t read much, so don’t lie to me.」
The Great Zhou Emperor forcibly held back his anger and said: “I am the emperor of a country. How could I lie to you?」
「Hahaha, I know you won’t lie to me. I was just kidding with you. Don’t be angry.」 The Long-browed True Man quickly put the dagger into the space ring and sighed, 「Although there is only one, it’s better than nothing.」
Jian Jiezhi sighed and said, “Although there is only one piece, it’s better than nothing.」
He was overjoyed in his heart.
Originally, his psychological expectation was to get an ordinary sacred weapon, but unexpectedly, he got a peerless sacred weapon.
This trip was not in vain.
The Great Zhou Emperor said, 「Daoist, you can tell me now. How can we make Ye Changsheng the son-in-law of our Great Zhou?」
「Actually, the method is very simple.」 The Long-browed True Man said, 「You immediately write an imperial edict and announce to the world that Ye Changsheng is the son-in-law of your Great Zhou.」
「Just like that?」 The face of the Great Zhou Emperor sank.
「What, you don’t think it will work?」 The Long-browed True Man said, 「To come up with this idea, I have sacrificed hundreds of millions of brain cells. In my opinion, this method will definitely work.」
「This method is not appropriate.」 The Great Zhou Emperor said, 「I publicly recruited a son-in-law for Ning’an. Now, the young talents from all the states in Zhongzhou have gathered in the imperial city. If I announce to the world at this time that Ye Changsheng is the son-in-law of my Great Zhou, where will those young talents be placed?」
「They will definitely think that I am playing tricks on them and will definitely hate our Great Zhou. This will create many enemies for our Great Zhou.」
「At the same time, in their hearts, I will also become a person who breaks my promise.」
「Daoist, think again. Is there any other good way?」
The eyes of the Great Zhou Emperor were not kind, as if warning the Long-browed True Man that if he couldn’t come up with a good solution, he wouldn’t be able to leave easily.
The Long-browed True Man said, “In that case, let’s adjust the plan I just mentioned.」
Directly issue an order to announce that Ye Changsheng is the consort of the Great Zhou.
If anyone is not convinced, they can challenge Ye Changsheng!
The Great Zhou Emperor pondered for a moment and said, “If Ye Changsheng loses, how can he still become the consort of our Great Zhou?」
The Long-browed True Man smiled and said, “Why do you guys have to make Ye Changsheng the consort of the Great Zhou? Isn’t it because you fancy his potential?」
Since he has this potential, how could he lose?」
To tell you the truth, I have been with this little brat for so long and have never seen him fail.」
”You are the emperor of a country, but you are really a muddlehead!」
That’s right. The reason for fancying Ye Changsheng is because of his extraordinary potential and boundless future, right?”
Wait a minute…
Just now, this bastard called me a muddlehead?..
*** your grandpa!
The Great Zhou Emperor was about to speak when he was preempted by King Wu of Zhou.
”Smelly Taoist, didn’t you say before that Ye Changsheng has no interest in being the consort of our Great Zhou? What if he doesn’t accept this identity and doesn’t participate in the challenge?」
The Long-browed True Man smiled and said, “So, you have to impress him with sincerity.」
Sincerity?
King Wu of Zhou and the Great Zhou Emperor exchanged a look. They had a feeling that this stinky Taoist priest was up to no good again.
Moreover, looking at the appearance of this stinky Taoist priest, it seemed that he had been planning for a long time.
The Long-browed True Man said with a smile: As long as you promise the poor Taoist three things, I will help you get Ye Changsheng. If he still doesn’t want to, then I will tie him up and make him consummate the marriage with Princess Ning’an!
The Great Zhou Emperor asked: “Which three things?」
