"I can't even protect myself right now, so how can I save the people of Loulan?”
Looking at the High Priest and Xiao Li, Ying Zheng said coldly,"
"Moreover, I treated you like that back then and even promised to give a piece of land in Great Qin to the Loulan people. However, not only did you Loulan people play with me, but you also heavily injured my subordinates. You even wanted to kill me in the desert and give me to the desert as nourishment.”
With a cold face, Ying Zheng said in a mocking tone,"
"Then, High Priest and the powerful Loulan guardian Goddess Xiao Li, please tell me, what reason do I have to save the people of Loulan?”
Xiao Li and the High Priest hurriedly said in unison,"
"As long as Your Majesty is willing to save the people of Loulan, we are willing to pay anything!!”
"Willing to pay anything?"
Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows, looked at the High Priest and Xiao Li with disdain, and said slowly,"
"The most precious thing of Loulan, the dragon soul, has been taken away. The Sword of Chi You that you suppressed has also been taken away. Even the legendary ancient mechanical beast that helped you defeat Chi You has been taken away.
"To be honest, I really can't think of what you can give up now. Could it be your bodies and your youth?”
Ying Zheng's words made both the High Priest and Xiao Li's hearts tremble. After exchanging a glance with each other, the High Priest gritted her teeth under Xiao Li's nod, then looked at Ying Zheng with an unafraid expression and said,"
"As long as Your Majesty is willing to save the people of Loulan and help Loulan get through this crisis, Guardian Xiao Li and I are willing to serve you with our lives, become Your Majesty's women, and serve Your Majesty for the rest of our lives…”
The High Priestess said this in her shyest voice, but even so, she was unable to finish her sentence with her flushed face.
After all, she was the person with the highest authority in Lou Lan. She was a proud, noble, and cold goddess. If she had to finish what she wanted to say, it would be more painful than killing her.
"Become my woman? After experiencing what happened before, do you think I will still believe your flowery words when I see the true colors of the Loulan people? Besides, I don't think you have the qualifications to be my women!!”
Under the furious and humiliated gazes of the High Priest and Xiao Li, Ying Zheng pointed at Great Si Ming and Young Si Ming who were meditating behind him, and said in his usual cold voice,"
"The women around me, in terms of appearance, figure, martial arts, and intelligence, which one of them is not better than the two of you? They didn't ask for anything, they followed me loyally, and in times of danger, they would choose to stand in front of me without hesitation.”
"What about you two? Perhaps to the people of Loulan, you two are noble goddesses that can be admired from afar but not touched. But to me, you two are just slightly prettier flower vases. You don't even have the value of collecting them. What qualifications do you have to negotiate with me…?"”
At this point, Ying Zheng's eyes were filled with a terrifying cold light and a cold killing intent. He looked into the High Priest's and Xiao Li's eyes and said word by word,"
"Besides, you dared to hurt my Great Si Ming and Young Si Ming. Even if I kill all of you, I won't be able to calm my anger, let alone save your people and help you survive this disaster.”
"I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. To me, your bodies and youth are worthless. I don't care about them at all. Therefore, you two have no right to negotiate with me, and I can't make a deal with you either. Only when you two die can I make up for the harm that your Lou Lan has done to Great Si Ming and Young Si Ming…”
Ying Zheng's words immediately made the High Priest and Xiao Li feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, as they felt a chill from the soles of their feet to their heads. Because they had been humiliated, they stared at Ying Zheng with faces full of shame and anger, unable to say a word.
At the same time, Great Si Ming and Young Si Ming opened their eyes and listened to Ying Zheng's words clearly. They stared at Ying Zheng without blinking.
Especially Great Si Ming, who was looking at Ying Zheng with a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes filled with countless complicated emotions, and could not help but tear up.
The relationship between the two of them and Ying Zheng, to put it nicely, was that the king and his subjects were friends, but to put it bluntly, it was the relationship between chess players and chess pieces. Ying Zheng was the chess player, and everyone else was his chess pieces.
But at this very moment, Ying Zheng had rejected two beautiful women and two Loulan Goddesses for the sake of their chess pieces. He even wanted to kill the High Priest and Little Li to make up for their mistakes. How could Great Si Ming and Young Si Ming not be touched by this? How could they not shed tears of happiness?
Women were the strangest creatures in the world.
Sometimes, even though they knew that the man was deliberately saying it to make them happy, they would still be touched and happy because of it, selectively treating the man's lies as the truth.
Just like Great Si Ming at this moment.
She knew very well that if Ying Zheng did not want to make a deal with Xiao Li and the others, he would not have talked so much with them.
Besides, the purpose of Ying Zheng's trip to Loulan this time was not only to get the dragon soul and the Demonic Sword of Chiyou, but also to boost his reputation while ruining the reputation of Yan Dan and the Xiang Clan. Anyway, it was a good reputation that came along with it, so why not?
Therefore, when Ying Zheng said that he wanted to kill the High Priest and Xiao Li, he was just pretending to be a bad guy to make Great Si Ming and Young Si Ming happy.
After thinking everything through, Great Si Ming, who knew that it was all a lie, still blushed happily for Ying Zheng,"
"Your Majesty, the High Priest and Xiao Li dared to play tricks on Your Majesty and even wanted to kill us all. Although their crimes are unforgivable and they deserve to die, the people of Loulan who are being slaughtered are innocent…”
Seeing that Great Si Ming was actually speaking up for them, the High Priestess and Xiao Li immediately widened their beautiful eyes and looked at her with gratitude and anticipation, waiting for her to continue.
"Yan Dan is cruel, and the Xiang Clan is ruthless. They want to steal the treasures in Loulan and kill people to silence them. Even though the people of Loulan are toying with Great Qin, Great Qin is a country of etiquette.”
After saying that, Great Si Ming looked at Ying Zheng's eyes, which were as bright as stars, with a pair of peach blossom eyes, and said,"
"Your Majesty, let the High Priest and Xiao Li pay for their sins. However, the defenseless people of Loulan shouldn't be destroyed…"
Ying Zheng and Great Si Ming, one playing the bad guy and the other playing the good guy, had their hearts hanging in their throats with just a few words, fearing that they might fly out of their chests or fall into hell.
Under the anxious and pleading eyes of the High Priest and Xiao Li, Ying Zheng finally nodded and said at the same time,"
"I can save the people of Loulan, but how can the two of them make up for it?”
Looking into Ying Zheng's eyes, under the pitiful and confused expressions of the High Priest and Xiao Li, who looked as if they were about to be judged, Great Si Ming's lips curled up slightly as he said in a charming voice,"
"Since Your Majesty thinks that they are not qualified to be His Majesty's women, then let them be his female slaves. Great Si Ming will definitely teach them well for Your Majesty…”
