My whole clan is a master, I have become invincible by investing in my clan members

at the same time.

Inside a quiet palace.

Moon Emperor Li Chenglong walked in with doubt and a hint of vigilance.

He looked up and saw Cang Huang sitting on the throne with a solemn expression. He couldn't help but wonder, "He has just been promoted to the imperial dynasty, is he planning to attack me?"

This idea was not groundless. After all, he could sense great ambition from Cang Huang's words.

Suddenly, as if sensing something, he turned his head and looked behind him.

A middle-aged man in red clothes walked in.

Li Chenglong frowned slightly and instantly recognized the other person's identity.

"It's you?"

The person who came was Chi Huang’s younger brother, “Prince Shun”.

Prince Shun looked at Li Chenglong and said with a smile, "Emperor Yue, how are you?"

Li Chenglong shook his head and sneered, "You're the only one coming? Haha, that's not surprising. If that old turtle could come, it would actually surprise me."

Prince Shun was not angry when he heard this.

His expression was normal, and he said calmly, "Why does the Moon Emperor have to speak like that?"

"Although my brother has not come in person, he is also very concerned about the affairs of the Cang Ling Dynasty. That is why he was invited by the Cang Emperor to send me here."

"I came here with sincerity, hoping to discuss the future direction of our Eastern Region with you two..."

Prince Shun looked at the two emperors calmly.

Li Chenglong snorted coldly: "Discuss? Haha, you don't even have the courage to come over. I don't think you are sincere."

He has always been extremely disgusted with the Red Emperor's deeds.

Prince Shun shook his head slightly. "Yue Huang is wrong. My brother is the Red Emperor, and he carries the weight of the nation. He naturally cannot take risks lightly. It is normal for him to have such concerns."

Li Chenglong showed disdain and was too lazy to waste words.

At this time, Jiang Shan, who had been sitting upright on the throne, slowly spoke: "You two, the situation in the Five Regions is complicated right now. There are many dynasties in the Central Region and many holy places, all of which are eyeing our Eastern Region covetously."

"On the other hand, in our Eastern Region, there are only three dynasties, each operating independently and with their power dispersed. If the Central Region were to launch a full-scale invasion, the Eastern Region would likely be unable to resist."

At this point, the voice paused slightly.

Then, Jiang Shan stood up from the throne, looked at Li Chenglong and Prince Shun with deep eyes, and said in a deep voice:

"The Eastern Region is weak. If it continues to be like a pile of scattered sand, it will be unable to resist the invasion of the Central Region. The most urgent task is to gather our strength and jointly resist the Central Region!"

"This emperor believes that rejecting internal conflict and peacefully unifying the Eastern Region is the best strategy to avoid unnecessary losses."

Li Chenglong frowned and fell into deep thought.

If the Red Kingdom joins forces with the Cangling Dynasty and the Yue Dynasty, they may be able to gain a chance to survive and develop under the pressure of the Central Region.

But if the Eastern Region is unified, what position will the Yuehuang Dynasty be in?

Prince Shun also looked solemn as he weighed the pros and cons.

Then, he raised his head and said in a deep voice: "Cang Huang, if you really want to unify the Eastern Region as you said, which dynasty will be the leader?"

Jiang Shan glanced at the two of them and said in a deep voice, "The unification of the Eastern Region will naturally be led by Cang Ling!"

Upon hearing this, Prince Shun showed a mocking expression and snorted coldly, "Humph, I knew it!"

"They say they're discussing the future of the Eastern Region, but in reality, they're just trying to annex the two dynasties, and they're even finding such a high-sounding excuse!"

Li Chenglong's expression also changed drastically, his face full of astonishment and vigilance, and he hurriedly asked: "Cang Huang, why are you doing this?"

Jiang Shan's eyes turned cold, and he instantly mobilized the power of national destiny.

He just raised his hand quickly.

boom--

A vast force like the ocean surged out from his body!

That power seemed to have substance, transforming into an invisible wave of pressure, pressing towards Li Chenglong and Prince Shun with overwhelming force!

In an instant, the two felt as if their bodies were being pressed down by an invisible mountain. They had difficulty breathing and couldn't even muster the strength to resist.

Upon realizing this, their faces turned pale instantly and they were shocked to the extreme!

Li Chenglong gritted his teeth and said with difficulty, "Emperor Cang, I thought you were a great man and risked my life to come here. Now, are you trying to force us to submit by force?!"

Prince Shun on the side looked at Jiang Shan, his heart filled with fear.

He could clearly feel the power of this force, a terrifying force that they could not resist at all!

In the face of this force, even one with the powerful cultivation of the ninth level of the Heavenly Man Realm is as small as an ant. It is as if he sees death approaching step by step, and a feeling of despair surges in his heart!

Jiang Shan looked at Li Chenglong with a sharp gaze and said slowly, "The choice is up to you."

"Now, I will give you a choice!"

"Moon Emperor, if you submit to me, I will grant you a throne of a different surname. I will not take any of the Yuehua territory, which can be your fiefdom!"

For him, he would unify the five regions sooner or later, so he never cared about the small Yuehua territory.

All he cares about is Yuehua's national destiny and the talents that can be used by him.

Li Chenglong's heart moved when he heard this.

But a hint of doubt still flashed in his eyes: "Cang Huang, since you have such strength, why don't you just annex the territory? What is the reason?"

Jiang Shan raised his chin slightly, his eyes revealing endless dominance.

"Cang Ling's future is by no means limited to the Eastern Region, but lies in the vast Five Regions!"

"From now on, wherever the sun and moon shine, it will be Cang Ling's territory!"

"This emperor's ambition is to unify the five regions. The Eastern Region? It's merely the starting point for Cang Ling's journey to glory. How could this emperor lose sight of the greater good and cling to the few territories before him?!"

Li Chenglong fell into deep thought, struggling internally.

He thought of his subjects and the glory and heritage of the Yuehua Dynasty.

If he surrendered to the Cang Ling Dynasty, he could retain a certain status, but he would no longer be an independent emperor.

However, if they do not agree, facing the powerful Canghuang, the Yuehua Dynasty may very likely fall into an irretrievable situation!

What is even more worrying is that if a war breaks out between the three dynasties, it will damage the foundation of the Eastern Region.

After the mountains and rivers are shattered and the people are living in misery, how can the Eastern Region face the invasion of the Central Region given its dire situation?!

Li Chenglong clenched his fists and his expression became more solemn.

"Emperor Cang, this matter is of great importance. Please allow me to consider it further."

Jiang Shan nodded slightly and said, "Moon Emperor, you must understand that time is running out. The threat from the Central Region is getting closer and closer. You must make a decision as soon as possible."

Li Chenglong remained silent, his heart tangled like a tangled mess.

He clenched his fists, weighing the pros and cons in his mind.

after awhile.

Li Chenglong raised his head and looked at Jiang Shan: "Emperor Cang, if I surrender, can you really guarantee the safety of the people of the Yuehua Dynasty?"

Jiang Shan replied firmly, "I'm not kidding. As long as you truly submit, the subjects of the Yuehua Dynasty will be treated equally with the subjects of the Cangling Dynasty!"

Li Chenglong sighed deeply: "I hope you can keep your promise."

"I surrender today not for myself, but for the people of Yuehua and the countless lives in the Eastern Territory!"

He bowed slightly and lowered his proud head towards Jiang Shan.

"Your servant, Li Chenglong, is willing to serve as the Moon King and assist His Majesty the Cang Emperor to create a prosperous era together!!"

After saying this, he felt like he had let go of a burden and breathed a sigh of relief.

Prince Shun had a complicated expression.

He struggled to stand up straight and said, "Emperor Cang, this matter is serious. I need to go back and report it to my brother."

Jiang Shan did not make things difficult for the other party. He just nodded slightly and tacitly agreed to his request.

"Okay, I'll wait for your reply."

"But time is running out, and the threat from the Central Region is approaching. I hope you can make a decision quickly."

Prince Shun bowed and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will inform my brother of this as soon as possible..."

After saying that, he turned and left in a hurry.
