"I hope you'll give me a good answer."

After Zheng-Fu finished speaking, Wang-Ke's face turned even paler now. He had no choice but to follow the choice that Zheng-Fu chose for him. He felt very sorry for wanting to know Zheng-Fu's wishes.

However, his Purple Dragon Auction House had been in this capital city for hundreds of years, so how could he have moved to another place? So, Wang-Ke thought he would risk giving an answer on the big bet for once.

"Sigh... I won't be able to do as Young Master said. Because this Purple Dragon Auction House was built by my grandfather's grandfather's grandfather and passed on to me at present, I won't be able to do what you ask. If you wanted to kill us all, I wouldn't be able to say anything. But can I only beg you to let my daughter go?"

"That seems unlikely, Master Wang-Ke. If you choose to die, then I'll have to kill all of you without leaving a single person behind. If I let your daughter go, that means I let go of the tiger's cub, who is furious because her parents were killed.

And one day, that tiger's cub will come back to take revenge on the one who killed her parents," Zheng-Fu continued to confirm the same words in a calm and cold tone, which did not seem to have weakened in any way.

"Then you can take action, sir. I don't have anything else to say. All the things that I wanted to ask for, I've asked. And I don't blame you for this, since no matter which way I choose, my family will never escape death. It would be better for me to die with dignity," Wang-Ke still firmly answered the same words without changing his mind.

However, inside his heart appeared a slight sadness because if this bet did not go as he thought, it would become a sin lasting a lifetime. He made the Wang family collapse and also caused the auction house that his ancestors built to end in such a bad way.

"Good, then I probably have nothing else to say as well. When you choose a way to die and have your auction house vanish, I'll arrange it according to your request. But I won't kill you first; I'll start by killing your people."

Whoosh!!!

Suddenly, the terrifying psychic killing was once again released by Zheng-Fu. The surrounding atmosphere was awkward and creepy, confirming that this was definitely not a joke. This caused Wang-Ke to realize that his bet had failed and his whole family was going to die, as he was about to witness the death of his family.

Whoosh!!!

Thump, thump, thump!!!

But all of a sudden, three elderly figures appeared beside Wang-Ke, exerting pressure against Zheng-Fu's psychic killing. This caused Wang-Ke to exhale again as he wiped the sweat off his forehead.

"Great Elders!?" Wang-Ke exclaimed in shock when he saw the faces of the three Great Elders who had come to help him. However, the three Great Elders' faces did not look good while resisting Zheng-Fu's psychic killing.

"Wang-Ke, you made a very wrong decision to bet on this matter," said the first Great Elder, raising his pressure to resist.

"You shouldn't be stubborn about an important matter. You also know that In-See City is now growing exponentially. Its strength has also increased. Even the current capital city might not be able to compare. If there weren't any major sects that were powerful, this capital city must have been destroyed a long time ago.

You know that well," the second Great Elder said, helping the first Great Elder strongly resist Zheng-Fu's psychic.

"Young Master Zheng-Fu, the three of us are Great Elders guarding this auction house. May I ask if Young Master could give us a chance to negotiate again?" the third Great Elder who came to support Wang-Ke spoke politely, even if they were not very pleased.

Whoosh!!!

Flap!!! Flap!!! Flap!!!

Suddenly, Zheng-Fu's psychic killing and pressure disappeared, causing the atmosphere in the room to return to normal again. The two Great Elders who had to use their strength to resist Zheng-Fu could also return to stand still. But there were quite a few beads of sweat on their foreheads.

"Alright, I'll give you one more chance to decide. But for now, I'll have to take a break. Tomorrow I'll come to hear your answers.

And one more thing I'd like to warn you guys: don't think about doing something wrong; otherwise, this auction house will vanish forever," finished saying, Zheng-Fu immediately walked out of the reception room, headed back to his room, and showed no interest in the four of them anymore.

Ah... Augh!!!

After Zheng-Fu walked out, the two Great Elders, who had thrust out their strength to resist Zheng-Fu's pressure, even spat out a huge mouthful of blood with their bodies staggering back a few steps before they sat down and hurriedly restored their strength.

"Sigh... Such a terrifying person. He didn't have the slightest bit of hesitation. Even though his words seemed non-serious, they were still unchanging," the third Great Elder said and could not help but let out a long sigh as he thought of Zheng-Fu.

"I apologize to the three of you for making my bet this time. I didn't think it would turn out like this. I'm so ungrateful. I caused our ancestors to regret it and was unable to maintain the long history of our Purple Dragon Auction House," Wang-Ke said, banging his head on the floor as an apology to his ancestors for not being able to maintain the auction house.

"Yes, yes, yes. You know that Blueland is going to have a big battle soon. If we move to In-See City, where there's more strength and higher defenses, we'll continue to survive."

The two Great Elders, who had just partially adjusted their energies, opened their eyes and explained to Wang-Ke that he was not at all guilty of his ancestors, as well as informed him of the news they had just received about the great battle that was coming up soon.

"Are you referring to the forces of Birdy Holy Fiery Heaven Country that will invade Blueland, Great Elder?" Wang-Ke seemed to know this as well.

"Yes, but that's only part of it. Besides Birdy Holy Fiery Heaven Country, the troops of Greenland will also invade us. Moreover, the situation with the Mysterious Tribe at the Three Border Mountains also seems very bad now. So, I think that this kingdom will soon go into full-blown war."

Sigh...

After Zheng-Fu came out of the reception room, he immediately headed to his room. As he walked, Zheng-Fu's face was filled with a very sophisticated and cunning smile, for he was thinking about the next step of the plan.

At the conference hall in the royal palace...

After finishing the problem with Zheng-Fu in the morning, Lu-Song-Xi and the rest of the nobles and officers gathered once again to discuss the ways to help the townspeople and a plan to restore their morale. But at that moment...

Squeak!!! (The sound of the door being opened)

"An urgent report, sir!"

Huh...?

"There's an urgent report from the Three Border Mountains area, sir. Our troops were defeated in the battle between Commander Yong's forces and the Mysterious Tribe, sir!!!"

Huh!!!

"An urgent report, sir! Now, Commander Ming's Frontier City is defeated by Birdy Holy Fiery Heaven Country's troops. And it was predicted that Birdy Holy Fiery Heaven Country's army would advance to the next city as well!!"

Ah!!!

In just a moment, very tragic and unwelcome reports happened. Both the bad news made Lu-Song-Xi's face look extremely pale, and his legs were so weak that he had to sit down in his big chair.

"How did this happen? Before I returned to the capital, the situation in the mountainous region was still good. How can my army be defeated!?"

"My army as well. Before I came back from Frontier City, everything was still normal. If anything happens, the news must be delivered to me. How could it be like this!?"

The two commanders had their faces twisted in disbelief at the reports they had received. However, the report that caused the most concern was probably an invasion from Birdy Holy Fiery Heaven Country's army.

"How many troops did they bring?" Guan-Yang-Sen suddenly asked.

"The information from our people says that their army has no less than five million soldiers."

"Five million soldiers!!!!!"

As the reporter finished speaking, the exclamations of shock rang out in unison because the number of troops that invaded this time was no less. Moreover, they were the army of Birdy Holy Fiery Heaven Country, which was the continent's largest kingdom.

"Five million people? So how are we going to fight them?"

"Yes, our country is just a small kingdom that has nothing good at all. Why are they attacking us so much?"

"Even an outpost with a strength not inferior to a capital city could be beaten within a few days. What about the capital city!?"

All the nobles began to panic until they were almost unable to remain conscious. They were not soldiers, so they did not have the ability to fight with anyone, except by only using their brains and corrupting the nation.

"Everyone, calm down first. Maybe we have a solution to this matter," after regaining his composure, Lu-Song-Xi spoke with a serious expression to calm everyone down before turning his head to Commander Guan-Yang-Sen and saying, "Commander Guan, I delegate to you the duty of preventing this invasion. You'll have supreme power to control the troops and go out against them."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"As for Commander Yong-Xi-Gui and Commander Ming-Ge-Dian, you haven't fully recovered yet, so I want both of you to rest. Once recovered, send an army to defend the mountain tribes once more."

"Yes, Your Majesty!!!"

"And you, Lu-Fang-Kong, my son, I want you to accompany Commander Guan to the battlefield to study this battle. But don't be arrogant and think you're clever; don't invade the enemy's enclave. The soldiers of Birdy Holy Fiery Heaven Country are not the shoddy ones you've met before."

"Yes, Father!"

"Now, everyone can disperse and perform their duties. No matter what, we will have to get through this bad situation!!!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!!!"
