1388 He Who Can See the Legendary Armament Canon (3)

This time, the black shadow didn’t hesitate and nodded.

Zhou Shu suddenly laughed and looked at Mu Zhixing with a smile. “Mu Zhixing, you seem to be in trouble. I’ve already obtained the laurel tree. I don’t think you can get your things.”

Mu Zhixing shouted, “King Zhou, that’s not what we agreed. We agreed to explore the Glacial Palace together. Then the laurel tree will belong to you, and the rest will belong to me.”

“Is that so? Haven’t we already finished exploring? This Glacial Palace is only so big,” Zhou Shu said indifferently. “You can tell at a glance. Apart from Brother Wu, there shouldn’t be anyone else here. If you want anything, you can get it yourself. We didn’t say that I had to help you get anything.”

Mu Zhixing wanted to curse in his heart. Although he didn’t know what was going on, the black shadow only communicated with Zhou Shu. If he dared to go forward, he would definitely fight him to the death.

If you leave, will that Wu fellow let me get close to thatched hut?You can take away the laurel tree, but what about me? I haven’t found anything yet!

Mu Zhixing pulled Zhou Shu aside and whispered, “King Zhou, take this Wu fellow away too, and I’ll owe you a favor. How about that?”

“You’ll owe me a favor?” Zhou Shu smiled faintly. “Then, what do you plan to repay me with?”

Mu Zhixing cursed in his heart. Why are you so enthusiastic when it comes to benefits?

“I’ll do whatever you say!” Mu Zhixing said through gritted teeth.

The things in the Glacial Palace were too important to him. Even though he knew that Zhou Shu was doing it on purpose, he had to grit his teeth and accept it.

“I want a hundred thousand soldiers of the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom to help me fight,” Zhou Shu said.

“That’s impossible!” Mu Zhixing cried out. “How many soldiers does the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom have in total? An army of a hundred thousand is impossible!”

Mu Zhixing shook his head repeatedly. “King Zhou, you’re making things difficult for me. I’m just a vanguard general in the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom. How can I mobilize an army of a hundred thousand to help you?”

Mu Zhixing smiled bitterly.

Zhou Shu said calmly, “Mu Zhixing, you don’t have to pretend to be poor in front of me. I can ask a sky-high price, and you can make a down-to-earth offer. Business is always negotiable.”

Mu Zhixing said helplessly, “An army of a hundred thousand is definitely impossible. Ten thousand at most.”

He finally understood that Zhou Shu was someone who didn’t commit himself until success was certain. If he didn’t give him some benefits, it was impossible for him to help him.

“Ninety thousand,” Zhou Shu said calmly, as if there was no need for them to talk if Mu Zhixing didn’t agree.

“King Zhou, our Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom is different from your ancestral land. Our army is all elites among elites. People can’t join the army without the cultivation of the Earth Immortal realm,” Mu Zhixing said.

“Therefore, even if all the soldiers of our Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom are added up, we don’t have so many people. If a ninety-thousand-strong army is mobilized, our Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom will be empty internally. This is impossible.

“Not to mention me, even the Green Emperor won’t agree. I can’t do this.”

Mu Zhixing said seriously, “I’ll add another ten thousand for twenty thousand soldiers. There really can’t be any more!”

“Mu Zhixing, you can’t bargain like this. You’re cutting the price by more than half,” Zhou Shu said. “Brother Wu is from the Ancient Heavenly Court. I’m risking my life to negotiate with him. My life is only worth twenty thousand soldiers?”

Mu Zhixing cursed in his heart. You bastard, not to mention a twenty-thousand-strong army, even a one-hundred-strong army isn’t worth it!

But he didn’t dare to say this to Zhou Shu. “King Zhou, this isn’t how we settle the score. I know why you are asking for an army. The army sent by our Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom can save the lives of humans. How can we settle this?”

Zhou Shu said, “Twenty thousand soldiers won’t solve any problem. I’ll take a step back. Eighty thousand soldiers. As long as the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom sends eighty thousand soldiers to support the ancestral land, then no matter what, I’ll help you get what you want in the Glacial Palace.”

Mu Zhixing looked helpless. Eighty thousand? I’ve already made it clear, okay? Our Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom’s army isn’t like cabbages by the roadside!

“Thirty thousand, thirty thousand at most!” Mu Zhixing bargained again.

Zhou Shu rolled his eyes. It turned out that if he lowered the price by ten thousand, Mu Zhixing would increase it by ten thousand.

Was he joking?

“Eighty thousand soldiers. I won’t do it even with one less person.” Zhou Shu shook his head. “Mu Zhixing, you’re the one begging me now. I have no interest in this Glacial Palace. If we can’t negotiate, I’ll just leave with the laurel tree. In any case, I won’t lose out with this laurel tree.”

You won’t lose anything, but I will suffer a huge loss! Mu Zhixing was about to explode in anger.

But there was nothing he could do. He had no way of dealing with the black shadow.

“King Zhou, I really can’t dispatch an army of eighty thousand.” Mu Zhixing smiled bitterly. “Sixty thousand. I will go all out, but I can only ask for sixty thousand soldiers at most. Any more than this will really exceed my ability.

“If this really doesn’t work for you, then I can only give up.”

Mu Zhixing looked helpless.

Zhou Shu looked at Mu Zhixing. He knew that he couldn’t force Mu Zhixing further.

An army of sixty thousand seemed alright.

After all, the army of the Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom was much stronger than the human army. Didn’t Mu Zhixing say that the weakest among them was at the Earth Immortal realm?

The 60,000-strong army with at least an Earth Immortal realm cultivation should have no problem fighting the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom.

No, it should be 70,000. There were still 10,000 mercenaries in the ancestral land.

Zhou Shu was overjoyed, but the expression on his face didn’t change at all. He said calmly, “On account of our relationship, I’ll take a step back. Sixty thousand it is.”

Mu Zhixing had long cursed Zhou Shu’s eighteen generations of ancestors in his heart.

Don’t look like you’ve suffered a loss. Damn it, you’ve gained a lot.

Do you think I don’t know what you’re up to? Don’t you just want to use the army of our Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom to resist the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom?

Hmph, it’s only because our Gou Mang Heavenly Kingdom doesn’t want to see the ancestral land occupied by the Xuan Ming Heavenly Kingdom. Otherwise, do you think I would agree?

It’s still uncertain who will benefit and who will suffer. It’s not that easy to take advantage of me!

Mu Zhixing urged, “King Zhou, since we’ve already reached a deal, hurry up and take this Wu bastard away!”
