Chapter 255: Famous Throughout The World, I’m Just a Forger (2)

“You Marquis, did you encounter Great Qin’s side-by-side king?” Meng Bai asked.

Over the past few days, he had thought about it, but he couldn’t figure out when Great Qin had a side-by-side king.

The gold was still piled in the camp. Meng Bai didn’t let anyone touch it.

“Side-by-side king?” Zhou Shu’s face darkened. “Why do you ask, Great General?”

Meng Bai explained briefly.

“Distribute the gold as compensation for our brothers who died in battle.”

Zhou Shu sighed. The dead couldn’t be revived. This gold could always give their loved ones some comfort.

As for revenge, the Tiger Leopard Wolf Cavalry had suffered a lot of casualties that night. This was an unresolvable feud.

“Compensation?” Meng Bai frowned.

“It’s just compensation. There’s no problem.” Zhou Shu didn’t intend to elaborate on this issue.

What side-by-side king? Zhou Shu didn’t take it to heart at all.

Did they think he was stupid?

How many side-by-side kings on Earth in his previous life had a good ending?

He was living well in Great Xia. How could he abandon his foundation in Great Xia and come to Great Qin for a nominal title?

Meng Bai looked at Zhou Shu as if he had thought of something, and his eyes flashed with shock.

He couldn’t understand how this could happen.

Seeing Meng Bai’s expression, Zhou Shu knew that he might have guessed it.

He shrugged a little helplessly.

“Great General, Great Qin won’t find trouble with us again. Let’s set off. Great Xia has obtained the right to host the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament. Let’s bring this good news back to Great Xia as soon as possible.”

Meng Bai nodded with mixed feelings.

He really didn’t know how to treat Zhou Shu now.

Back then, when he first met Zhou Shu, Zhou Shu had still been a mere Forging Apprentice. At the time, he had wanted to nurture Zhou Shu.

Later, when he returned from the southern borders, Zhou Shu had already become the You Marquis.

How long had it been? Not only was Zhou Shu’s martial strength comparable to a first-rank Martial Dao cultivator, but he had also inexplicably become Great Qin’s side-by-side king?

In that case, was he considered a citizen of Great Qin or Great Xia now?

From the looks of it, he was more inclined toward Great Xia.

After some thought, Meng Bai ordered the Great Xia diplomatic mission to set off.

The rest of the journey could only be described as smooth sailing for the Great Xia diplomatic mission.

Along the way, they didn’t even encounter a single thief. It was much smoother than when they first came to Great Qin.

While the Great Xia diplomatic mission was still on the way, the news that Zhou Shu had become Great Qin’s side-by-side king had already spread.

When Zhou Shu fought his way from Hangu Pass to Great Qin’s capital, apart from Great Xia and Great Wei, the diplomatic missions of the other countries had yet to leave Great Qin’s capital.

Many people had watched the battle between Zhou Shu and the Qin emperor.

In addition, Great Qin intended to make this matter known, so the news that Great Qin’s side-by-side king was Zhou Shu quickly spread throughout the world.

In the imperial palace of Great Xia, Emperor Yuan Feng looked at the news in front of him and was silent for a long time.

“Great companion, do you think I was wrong to let Zhou Shu go to Great Qin?” Emperor Yuan Feng said in a low voice.

Standing behind him, Eunuch Zhao said, “Your Majesty, you did nothing wrong.

“Who would have thought that the You Marquis would be so capable?”

Even after receiving the news, Eunuch Zhao couldn’t believe that the You Marquis was such a fierce person.

He had defeated six first-rank experts from Great Qin and fought to a draw with the Qin emperor. Such results were simply unbelievable.

“Side-by-side king… The Qin emperor actually made this move!” Emperor Yuan Feng sneered. “You’re trying to poach someone from my Great Xia. This is intolerable!”

Eunuch Zhao smiled bitterly. The Qin emperor is really generous.

“Great companion, do you think that Zhou brat will come back?” Emperor Yuan Feng asked with an ugly expression.

“The diplomatic mission sent back news that the marquis is on his way back with the diplomatic mission,” Eunuch Zhao said.

“Issue the decree!” Emperor Yuan Feng pondered for a moment and said, “I want to head to the border personally and welcome the return of the warriors of my Great Xia diplomatic mission!”

That old fellow, the Qin emperor, wants to steal my Great Xia’s people. Just because I don’t show my might, do you think I’m a sick cat?

Do you think you can poach my Great Xia’s people so easily? Dream on!

“I won’t see them. In the future, refuse all such requests.”

Zhou Shu had a headache.

The aftereffects of being too high-profile finally surfaced.

Before he even returned to Great Xia, there was already an endless stream of people visiting him.

These people weren’t here to challenge Zhou Shu.

At first, Zhou Shu was in a good mood and even met a few people.

In the end, they kept trying to get close to him or ask for weapons.

Later on, Zhou Shu became impatient and left everything to Shi Songtao.

Shi Songtao, the deputy envoy of the Great Xia diplomatic mission, took a share of the money and took on a few jobs.

Now, he felt like he was about to become Zhou Shu’s personal steward!

Shi Songtao was envious as he muttered about rejecting a new batch of visitors.

Who wouldn’t want to be famous?

“It’ll be fine when we get back to Great Xia,” Yin Wuyou comforted Zhou Shu. “When you reach Great Xia, there won’t be so many people bothering you.”

“Is that so?” Zhou Shu said.

He didn’t feel that way.

When the time came, more people would probably come.

When the Huaxia Pavilion was built later, he had to strengthen it so that people couldn’t approach it so simply.

I just want to be a forger. That’s all. Why do you want me to suffer the distress of becoming famous? Zhou Shu sighed and shook his head helplessly.

“You Marquis, you’ve become famous overnight. Everyone knows about you.” Meng Bai smiled. “This is normal. Now, it’s just people visiting you. In the future, all kinds of trouble will come knocking on your door. If you’re too famous, many things are inevitable.”

“Who would dare cause trouble?” Yin Wuyou glared at him angrily.

“With the You Marquis’s current situation, there are countless envious people. Who doesn’t want to become famous by using him as a stepping stone?” Meng Bai said.

“I’ve already fought my way to Great Qin’s capital. Who would dare to use me as a stepping stone?” Zhou Shu said.

Why did he fight his way through Great Qin so openly?

Wasn’t it just to show off his strength and make those who wanted to cause trouble back off?

“Ordinary people naturally don’t dare. However, you’ve fought the Qin emperor to a draw, so some arrogant people will probably want to defeat you and prove their strength. After all, not just anyone can challenge the Qin emperor,” Meng Bai said.

“Not anyone can challenge the Qin emperor, but they can challenge me easily?” Zhou Shu said. “I have to accept a challenge just because they challenge me? They can go to hell.

“I’m just a forger. Don’t challenge me!”

Meng Bai smiled but said nothing. Things in the world were not that simple.

There was no shortage of people who were unafraid of death in order to become famous.

“Never mind all that nonsense. We’ll deal with whatever comes our way.” Zhou Shu shook his head.

“Great General, do you remember the Heavenly Halberd I mentioned?”

“Yes.” Meng Bai nodded, his face darkening.

Back then, in front of Wang Mu, Zhou Shu had said that Meng Bai’s weapon was the Heavenly Halberd and that the Heavenly Halberd was stronger than Wang Mu’s sword. He had been so embarrassed.

He had never even seen the Heavenly Halberd!

“Well, when I said that the Heavenly Halberd was stronger than Wang Mu’s sword, I was bragging…” Zhou Shu said.

Meng Bai’s eyelids twitched a few times.

Isn’t that obvious?

How could a yellow-grade weapon be stronger than a heaven-grade weapon?

In the hands of someone like you, who can’t be deduced by common sense, a yellow-grade weapon can fight a heaven-grade weapon.

Even Meng Bai couldn’t defeat an expert of the same level who held a heaven-grade weapon.

“However, my Heavenly Halberd is really not bad. Although its grade is a little low and might not match your status as a first-rank expert, do you want to consider using it?” Zhou Shu asked.

“You really have the Heavenly Halberd?” Meng Bai said in surprise.

“Of course. I never joke about forging,” Zhou Shu said.

“I’m just cultivating the Martial Dao for fun. I’m serious about forging. Great General, do you want the Heavenly Halberd? If not, I’ll give it to someone else.”
