Chapter 40
The East and West Monarchs Have Been Collected, You Can Leave Now

On the imperial throne.

Qin Zheng narrowed his eyes, looking at the countless resources presented by the ministers below, and couldn’t help but sneer.

He said calmly, “You have a kind heart.”

As soon as these words were spoken.

Liu Su and the others were overjoyed, immediately saying, "Your Majesty Qin, as long as you are satisfied."

However.

Just as their words fell.

Qin Zheng’s voice, carrying a hint of coldness, rang out from the court once more: “I have accepted the items.”

“You...”

“You can also leave now.”

The faces of the several ministers instantly froze, the joy on their faces vanishing in an instant.

They looked up in a daze.

Their voices trembled with disbelief as they asked, “Your Majesty Qin, what do you mean by this?”

At the same time.

Not only were they in disbelief.

Many civil and military officials in the court also sensed something amiss, their expressions changing slightly.

While Xu Shu and the others.

Smiled faintly, a hint of killing intent hidden in their eyes as they looked at them.

“Hiss...”

Witnessing this scene.

Even if these ministers were fools, they understood that Qin Zheng had no intention of accepting the submission of the Four Transcendent Forces today.

They had been played.

Not only had they knelt in vain, but the countless resources they had brought were also swallowed whole by the tiger.

“Damn it.”

After realizing this.

The several ministers cursed under their breath.

“Your Majesty Qin.”

The person from the Qianyu Dynasty took a deep breath, anger evident in his voice, coldly asking, "Are you not afraid that if you play us like this, the powers behind us will unleash their full might and attack together?”

“Even if,”

“the Great Qin Empire has a powerful foundation now, it’s unlikely to withstand such an attack, right?”

Xu Shu and the others couldn’t help but snort in laughter.

Xiao He stepped forward and said, “You don’t need to worry about these things, our court has its own ways of measuring.”

“This...”

Xiao He’s words.

Caused the faces of the several ministers to change again, even a hint of horror appearing in their eyes.

Could it be

that the current foundation of the Great Qin Empire is truly fearless in the face of our combined forces?

As soon as this thought arose.

The several ministers shook their heads, dismissing the speculation.

Impossible!

This must be a trick to lure us in.

Looking at the constantly changing expressions of the several ministers, Qin Zheng said coldly, “Go back, tell those behind you that I will be waiting for them in Xianyang.”

Upon hearing this, the several ministers were all as red as a pig’s liver.

Their eyes filled with anger.

But they dared not speak.

In contrast, the Third Prince of the Bai Zhan Dynasty, after realizing that it wasn’t because of his own rash words that this situation had occurred, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

“We are leaving.”

Amidst the cold laughter of the civil and military officials of the Great Qin Empire, a Saint King Realm peak general with a ferocious aura was watching them eagerly, his murderous intent undisguised.

Seeing this, the several ministers’ faces were filled with uncertainty.

They immediately took their leave, fleeing the court as if they were escaping, completely unable to stay for another moment.

“Hahaha.”

“A bunch of trash.”

Seeing the several ministers flee in a panic.

Xu Chu burst out laughing, and his laughter spread out, heard by the several ministers.

The faces of the several ministers sank further, but they dared not look back.

They walked straight towards the palace gates.

In fact.

After leaving Xianyang, they didn’t even dare to delay for a moment, directly crossing the void and leaving.

______

In the court.

Looking at the countless resources on the floor, Qin Zheng raised an eyebrow and said, “Xun Yu, gather all these resources and put them into the imperial treasury.”

“Yes.”

Hearing this, Xun Yu immediately waved his hand.

The countless resources on the floor were stored in his Temporal Ring.

“Tsk.”

Feng Qing Heng looked at the countless resources being stored away, and couldn’t help but click his tongue, “Four Emperor Herbs, forty Saint Herbs, these guys are really generous.”

Not to mention the other things.

Just the Saint Herbs, the Great Qin Empire didn’t have many at the moment, and Emperor Herbs didn’t exist at all.

After all, a hundred years ago, during the Great Demon Calamity.

The Great Qin Empire’s accumulated foundations over many years were exhausted, and they suffered heavy losses.

In response to this.

A hint of joy also flashed across the faces of the civil and military officials in the court, after all, it was free loot.

However, they soon furrowed their brows.

A hint of worry also appeared in their eyes.

After all, today’s joy was just that.

They had completely offended the Four Transcendent Forces, and it wouldn’t be long.

The Four Transcendent Forces.

Would unleash their full might and come for them.

At that time.

How would they defend themselves?

At this moment, Qin Zheng also turned his gaze back to Xiao He and the others, and asked in a deep voice, “What do you think, when will the Four Transcendent Forces attack?”

“Your Majesty.”

Hearing this, Xiao He stepped forward and respectfully said, “My guess is that they will attack in ten days at the earliest, and half a month at the latest.”

As soon as these words were spoken.

Many civil and military officials in the court felt their hearts tighten, and their expressions sank slightly.

They felt that time was extremely tight.

“Ten days?”

Qin Zheng frowned, not because he felt the time was tight, but because he felt it was too slow.

If not for him and Xiao He and the others.

Having previously agreed to sit back and wait, patiently waiting for the Four Transcendent Forces to attack together.

To fight them head-on.

To defeat them, enhance the prestige of the Great Qin Empire, and then take advantage of the momentum to conquer the entire Xuan Domain.

He couldn’t help but want to immediately.

Order Meng Tian to lead his elite troops out and annihilate the so-called Four Transcendent Forces.
