Assassin Wu Liuqi starts with a bull and horse talisman and smashes Red Fang.

As he spoke, Gu Qianhan unleashed a palm strike.

The palm wind instantly enveloped the woman, and the next second she returned to her original appearance.

After doing all this, he ignored the woman and instead, with a smile, stole the half-eaten chocolate from Cola's hand and stuffed it into his own mouth.

"Yeah, not bad."

Seeing this, Cola's face turned bright red again, and she quickly lowered her head shyly.

Cola's parents saw it all, but they didn't show any dissatisfaction with Gu Qianhan's blond hair.

On the contrary, they felt a sense of relief.

Because it means their family has now latched onto a super powerful figure!

With Gu Qianhan as their backer, they could protect themselves even in chaotic times.

People are realistic.

At this moment, Gu Qianhan stretched and then stood up, smiling as she looked at the three of them.

"Alright, Uncle and Aunt, I won't bother you any longer today. I'll come over from time to time in the future."

"Oh, by the way, Cola might come to find me at any time on the private beach south of Chicken Island. I have a lot of older sisters to introduce to you."

Hearing that she had many older sisters, Cola couldn't help but feel a little jealous.

It's just that considering Gu Qianhan is the ruler of a country and a super strong person, it's perfectly normal for him to have a group of followers.

Cola then said "oh," which was taken as an agreement.

The next second, Gu Qianhan's figure vanished into thin air.

"Holy crap, is he even human?"

Cola casually remarked upon seeing this scene, just as Gu Qianhan's voice drifted in from outside.

"If I weren't human, would you be afraid?"

Upon hearing this, Cola took a deep breath and then shouted loudly that he wasn't afraid.

Then, Gu Qianhan's laughter could be heard from outside, gradually fading into the distance.

It wasn't until half an hour later that Cola's parents finally breathed a sigh of relief and dared to speak loudly.

They rejoiced at Coca-Cola's recovery and were happy that the woman had regained her beauty.

"Cola, you can't be so carefree when you're with Mr. Gu in the future."

"Yeah, like what you just said, do you know how rude that is?"

Just then, Gu Qianhan's voice came again.

“I like Coke the way she is. She should be herself, not become what you expect her to be.”

"If you dare interfere with Coca-Cola's choices, I'll kill you all."

These words startled the couple once again.

The man, in particular, who had once been the commander of the Silver Armor Guards of the Xuanwu Kingdom, turned pale with fright.

Because he had seen many powerful figures from the Xuanwu Kingdom, he knew exactly how exceptionally strong Gu Qianhan was.

Those geniuses he once nurtured and trained are not even worthy of carrying Gu Qianhan's shoes.

Cola then chuckled.

“You see, Mr. Gu doesn’t mind me saying this about him.”

...............

Xuanwu Kingdom, Imperial City.

Jinluan Palace.

The Emperor of Xuanwu Kingdom was wearing a golden dragon robe, a rare sight for him. He sat on the dragon throne, looking down at the civil and military officials and the Imperial Preceptor Huikong.

"What, you don't agree with my decision to fight this war?"

He then rose from the dragon throne and waved to the side.

A young eunuch quickly came over carrying a plate.

The emperor took out a silver media player from the plate; it was clearly a high-tech product from the Kingdom of Ster.

Do you know what this is?

The civil and military officials below looked at each other in bewilderment, and no one responded.

At this moment, the emperor held the player in his right hand and pointed at it with his left.

"This is the declaration of war issued by the Kingdom of Ster against our country."

"Their useless king, Baiqi, actually claimed that I sent people to assassinate a group of his Ster Kingdom's officials, nobles, and researchers."

"That's utter nonsense!!"

As he spoke, the emperor tossed the media player down below.

The player then automatically started playing the 3D projection.

The projected image showed King Baiqi of the Kingdom of Ster and the leader of the Three-Phase Power.

The two first protested against the assassination of their country's officials by Xuanwu Kingdom, and then announced that Ster Kingdom would soon go to war with Xuanwu Kingdom.

At the end of the video, they even mocked the incompetence of the Xuanwu Kingdom.

"They couldn't even take down a small country like Shigeng, and they lost 1000 silver-armored guards and 50 gold-armored guards for nothing."

"What a powerful nation we are today, huh?"

After saying that, the player turned off, and their projections disappeared as well.

At this moment, the emperor glanced at the civil and military officials below.

"Gentlemen, what are your thoughts after hearing the King of Ster's words?"

The assembled civil and military officials looked at each other in bewilderment and fell silent for a moment.

At this moment, Huikong stepped forward and bowed to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I believe this is a provocation tactic by the other side."

"They are deliberately trying to lure His Majesty into personally leading an expedition against Shigeng Kingdom, so that they can take advantage of the weakness of our Xuanwu Kingdom and invade when it is vulnerable."

"Therefore, Your Majesty still does not wish for Your Majesty to personally lead the expedition."

After saying this, Huikong bowed down and lowered his head.

The emperor snorted coldly and then looked at the others below the stage.

"Now that the Grand Preceptor has finished explaining his thoughts, what about you gentlemen?"

"Don't you have anything you want to say to me?"

As the emperor spoke, he walked down the high platform step by step.

"say!"

Are you all mute?

"Did I raise you all for nothing?!"

As he spoke, the emperor unleashed a tremendous pressure that silenced all the civil and military officials below.

Even some civil officials were so overwhelmed by the aura emanating from the emperor that they fainted!

Overbearing and domineering!

Faced with the emperor's imposing presence, an elderly general bowed respectfully.

"Your Majesty, this old minister is willing to follow in Your Majesty's footsteps!"

"My 300,000 Zhenyuan troops are willing to serve Your Majesty to the death!"

Upon hearing this, the emperor chuckled, took a few steps to the old man, and patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction.

"General Qin, you are a pillar of my Xuanwu Kingdom!"

Upon hearing this, the old man immediately knelt down before the emperor.

"Your Majesty flatters me. This is simply the duty of a subject."

"This old minister has always believed that we, as subjects, must share the glory and the ruin of the Great Xuanwu Empire!"

The emperor nodded in satisfaction, then helped General Qin up with both hands.

After he took the lead, the military officers all knelt down, expressing their willingness to follow His Majesty to the death and defend the glory of the Xuanwu Empire.

Huikong, who was standing to the side, frowned slightly when he saw this.

He is not a fool.

General Qin was originally an important minister under the emperor; this old man was just putting on an act for everyone else.

The 300,000 Zhenyuan Army is meant to guard the frontier; how could it be easily mobilized!

In the end, they'll still have to use the troops of other people.

But since they've already said all that, if we don't pledge our loyalty now, we'll be walking into the line of fire!

At this moment, the emperor walked up to Huikong.

"Grand Preceptor, as you can see, this is what the people want."

"This war is not fought for me, but to defend the sacred and inviolable glory of my Great Xuanwu Empire!"

"I suppose you've changed your mind, haven't you?"
