The Great Dao Golden List, Me! The Supreme Martial God Exposed – Chapter 64

Chapter 64: Corn, Sweet Potatoes, and Potatoes

“What?”

“The Queen of Bai Yue has come to express her submission?”

“Did I hear that correctly?”

Feng Quji and Li Si exclaimed, their faces showing astonishment and disbelief.

The army hasn’t even set out yet, and Bai Yue has already surrendered?

“Is what you’re saying true?”

Ying Zheng stood up abruptly, like a sleeping giant dragon opening its eyes, a terrifying pressure enveloping Zhang Han, as he said in a deep voice:

“Has the other party’s identity been verified?”

Zhang Han immediately felt a sense of suffocation, and quickly replied, “Your Majesty, please rest assured, the Queen of Bai Yue’s identity has been confirmed!”

“Good, good, good!”

Ying Zheng was overjoyed. With the unification of the Nine Continents imminent, he naturally didn’t want to waste military strength, but unifying the world was also a must.

Settle internal affairs before dealing with external threats.

If they could subdue the enemy without a fight, that would be the best outcome.

It should be known that the daily consumption of a 500,000-strong army is an astronomical figure.

Moreover, once a war starts, no one knows how many will die or be injured.

“Where are they now?”

Ying Zheng asked.

“Your Majesty, this subordinate has already arranged for them to stay at the post station, awaiting Your Majesty’s summons at any time!”

“Mm, you’ve done well!”

Ying Zheng nodded approvingly and said, “Do they have any requests?”

“Reporting to Your Majesty, they have no other requests, except…”

Zhang Han hesitated.

“Except what?”

Ying Zheng, Feng Quji, and Li Si all became curious.

“Except they wish to form a marriage alliance with the Martial King.”

Zhang Han replied.

“Oh?”

Ying Zheng, Feng Quji, and Li Si were all somewhat surprised. They had thought the Queen of Bai Yue would propose some conditions that would benefit Bai Yue, but they hadn’t expected it to be this.

“This Queen of Bai Yue, or rather, someone in Bai Yue, is indeed far-sighted.”

Feng Quji said with emotion.

“Indeed!”

Li Si followed up, saying, “The Martial King is not only the Great Qin’s Firstborn Son, but also the Great Qin’s Martial King, and a Disciple of the Martial God. Forming a marriage alliance with the Martial King is more useful than any other conditions they could propose.”

If they were to strive for some benefits and preferential treatment, but Bai Yue had already surrendered and was being taken over by Qin, the final treatment would still be decided by Qin.

Moreover, these promised benefits might be effective initially, but over time, their effect would inevitably diminish.

But a marriage alliance with Zhao Wu would be different.

That would be a long-term guarantee.

Furthermore, with Zhao Wu’s identity as a Disciple of the Martial God, the Martial King, and the Great Qin’s Firstborn Son, if they became Zhao Wu’s women, not only would their own futures be secured, but Bai Yue would also receive good treatment.

“This condition isn’t too excessive.”

Ying Zheng thought to himself. If it were a marriage alliance with another son, he would have agreed without hesitation.

But Zhao Wu…

He might not be able to make the decision.

“What do the Queen of Bai Yue and the Holy Maiden of Bai Yue look like?”

Ying Zheng asked.

This was the most crucial question.

“Your Majesty, please rest assured, the Queen of Bai Yue is dignified and noble, gentle and intellectual, while the Holy Maiden of Bai Yue is alluring and enchanting, with a natural charm. Both possess beauty that can topple cities and states, and a beauty that makes the moon hide and flowers blush with shame.”

Zhang Han’s voice was firm, as he knew Ying Zheng’s concerns, and said, “Even compared to the singers in the Martial King’s residence, they are not inferior.”

“Are you sure?”

Ying Zheng was somewhat surprised. He had seen a few of the singers in Zhao Wu’s residence, such as the Tide Maiden Enchantress Mingzhu, Yan Ling Ji, and Nong Yu.

Each of them was a beauty that could cause the downfall of a nation, with a natural charm, and could be called a peerless alluring woman.

“This subordinate guarantees with his head that everything I have just said is true.”

“Good.”

Ying Zheng was overjoyed. This was no problem at all.

Not only could it solve the Bai Yue problem, but he could also send two great beauties to Zhao Wu. He thought Zhao Wu would be very happy.

It was truly killing two birds with one stone.

Ever since finding Zhao Wu, he had wanted to properly compensate him.

But Zhao Wu seemed to lack nothing.

He didn’t care for power.

Moreover, he had already been named the Martial King, there was nothing else to bestow.

Not to mention gold and jewels.

And Zhao Wu also didn’t lack peerless martial arts or divine weapons.

Even with beauties, although he had many.

But after seeing Mingzhu, Yan Ling Ji, and the others in Zhao Wu’s residence, he was too embarrassed to offer any.

“Zhang Han, go and inform the Queen of Bai Yue and the Holy Maiden that I will receive them at court tomorrow. Make sure to protect their safety!”

Ying Zheng instructed.

“Yes, this subordinate will take his leave.”

Zhang Han bowed and retreated. Protecting the safety of the Queen of Bai Yue and the Holy Maiden was a must. If anything happened to them, Qin and Bai Yue would inevitably go to war.

“Now that Bai Yue has surrendered, the Southern Expedition army will temporarily halt its advance. After tomorrow, if nothing unexpected happens, we will be able to take over Bai Yue.”

Ying Zheng explained to Feng Quji and Li Si, and then he took Gai Nie to the Martial King’s residence.

While Ying Zheng was on his way to the Martial King’s residence, news of the Martial God’s divine troops annihilating the Wolf Clan in one day, killing millions of wolves, and Ying Zheng dispatching 500,000 troops to prepare for the Southern Expedition against Bai Yue spread throughout the world.

Along with this, news of Ying Zheng honoring the Martial God as the Great Qin’s Guardian God and commissioning the construction of his statue also spread throughout the world.

“My heavens, the Wolf Clan has been annihilated?”

“That’s great! Father, Mother, you can finally rest in peace in heaven. Thank you, Martial God! Long live the Martial God!”

“My wife, you can close your eyes now. The Wolf Clan beasts have finally been annihilated. I will build a longevity tablet for the Martial God and worship him day and night!”

“The Martial God is mighty! Long live the Martial God! Long live Great Qin!”

“…”

The news of the Wolf Clan’s annihilation swept across the world like a Category 12 hurricane, causing a sensation far greater than Ying Zheng’s Southern Expedition against Bai Yue.

It should be known that the Wolf Clan was ferocious and frequently invaded the borders. Once they crossed the border, they were like locusts, leaving nothing but devastation and rivers of blood.

Adult men and the elderly were directly slaughtered.

Children were reduced to rations.

◈◈◈

Women were reduced to their playthings and rations.

Especially the people near the border, who hadn’t suffered from the Wolf Clan’s persecution?

At this moment.

The Martial God had already become a deity.

◈◈◈

The Confucian School.

Little Sage Manor.

The Confucian Sect Leader, Fu Nian, looked at the news and sighed, “To slaughter millions of wolves in one day, it’s truly brutal, terrifying, and inhuman!”

“Ying Zheng is indeed extraordinary, actually honoring the Martial God as the Great Qin’s Guardian God and commissioning the construction of his statue. The Martial God’s prestige has already surpassed his!”

Yan Lu, the second in command of the Confucian School, spoke.

“The Martial God’s martial arts are not only divine, but his troops also far surpass those of Qin. Now that the unification of the Nine Continents is imminent, Ying Zheng’s actions are merely to try and tie the Martial God to his chariot.”

Zhang Liang sighed softly. If the Martial God completely sided with Ying Zheng, his hopes of restoring his kingdom would be basically hopeless.

However, with the unification of the Nine Continents, the world’s structure would change drastically.

Perhaps he still had a chance.

“Do you think Ying Zheng’s Southern Expedition against Bai Yue will be successful?” At this moment, Xun Zi, who had not spoken, suddenly said.

Fu Nian said, “The Qin army’s iron cavalry is invincible. Bai Yue is just a small place, and it will surely be unable to withstand the Qin army’s iron cavalry.”

“Sect Leader, you are mistaken.”

Zhang Liang shook his head and said, “The Qin army’s iron cavalry’s strength is undeniable, but Bai Yue is full of high mountains and dense forests, with miasma and various strange and powerful people and witchcraft. As long as they don’t directly confront the Qin army and hide in the mountains, the Qin army will be unable to do anything to them.”

“On the contrary, the Qin army is unfamiliar with the terrain and the local climate. With the army on a long expedition, the logistics supply lines will be stretched. Once they get bogged down or their supply lines are cut, they will surely be defeated.”

“Of course, if the Martial God’s troops help, then pacifying Bai Yue would be as easy as flipping a hand.”

Xun Zi nodded slightly, very satisfied with Zhang Liang’s analysis.

He said calmly, “The Martial God has yet to express his stance, and he has not met with Ying Zheng. Such a person is not someone Ying Zheng can command.”

“It’s understandable that the Martial God acted to annihilate the Wolf Clan.”

“But it’s unlikely that he will act to help Ying Zheng pacify Bai Yue.”

“Master Uncle is right.”

Fu Nian, Yan Lu, and the others echoed.

Zhang Liang’s eyes flickered. Perhaps he could go to Bai Yue and cause some trouble for Ying Zheng, to dampen the Qin army’s spirit.

◈◈◈

The Farming School.

The Chi You Hall.

“Hall Master, the Martial God’s divine troops are too terrifying. To slaughter millions of wolves in one day is simply unimaginable. Although our Farming School has 100,000 disciples, I think it’s best not to provoke him.”

Tian Zhong, the Hall Master of the Gonggong Hall, looked at Tian Hu, his heart still filled with fear.

“Damn it! I didn’t want to provoke him either, but he’s too domineering. Not only did he break my arm, but he also killed my elder brother. I can’t swallow this anger.”

Tian Hu, with only one arm left, waved the Tiger Soul, feeling frustrated and aggrieved.

He naturally didn’t dare to provoke the Martial God.

But he was unwilling in his heart.

He asked, “Is there any news about that kid Zhao Wu?”

This was what he had planned earlier.

The Martial God could not be provoked.

But he could always teach Zhao Wu a lesson under the guise of a challenge, right?

The Martial God couldn’t possibly jump out and fight him, could he?

That would be too humiliating.

“Hall Master, after being named the Martial King, Zhao Wu has been staying in the Martial King’s residence all day. It’s said that he even built a hot spring, a wine pool and meat forest, and spends every day embracing the beauties in his residence, living in a drunken stupor, carefree and happy.”

Tian Zhong said.

“This good-for-nothing, even if he has the Martial God’s inheritance, so what? He just had a good birth. His ability to kill Gao Jianli must have been from the pills the Martial God fed him.”

“And he dares to call himself the Martial King?”

“Keep a close watch on his movements. As long as he leaves Xianyang, I’ll go and teach him a lesson to vent my anger.”

Tian Hu waved the Tiger Soul and said loudly.

“Yes, Hall Master.”

Tian Zhong responded verbally, but shook his head in his heart, not optimistic about Tian Hu’s decision.

But he couldn’t stop Tian Hu’s decision.

“I hope nothing happens.”

Tian Zhong prayed in his heart.

◈◈◈

At the same time.

Xianyang.

Ying Zheng brought the Sword Saint Gai Nie to the Martial King’s residence, only to see Zhao Wu lying on a grand tutor chair in the garden next to the hot spring.

Nong Yu was playing the guqin, and Ling Ji was dancing.

The Tide Maiden Enchantress Mingzhu, wearing a black, thin gauze dress, sat beside Zhao Wu, her proud figure even more alluring and seductive under the veil, captivating the eye.

“Your Highness, His Majesty has arrived.”

Mingzhu’s lips curled into a smile, her narrow, enchanting eyes blinked slightly, seemingly brewing with charm, as she said in a soft, seductive voice.

“I really don’t know where Wu’er found these alluring women. Even though I’ve seen them before, every time I see them, I still feel a sense of amazement and seductiveness.”

Ying Zheng marveled in his heart.

He had three thousand beauties in his harem, including beauties from the six states. He had seen countless women, had extraordinary self-control, and a high standard, but these singers in Zhao Wu’s residence were of extremely high quality, truly top-notch.

“Old Zhao, if you’re here, just come and sit!”

Zhao Wu waved at Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng was now used to Zhao Wu’s casualness, and directly sat down on a stool next to Zhao Wu.

“What are these things?”

Suddenly, Ying Zheng glanced at the various strange foods on the table in front of Zhao Wu.

Even with his knowledge, he couldn’t recognize them.

Zhao Wu glanced at them and said:

“Roasted corn.”

“Roasted sweet potatoes.”

“Potato chips.”

“Heavenly Silkworm Potatoes!”
