Legendary Armament Canon Novel - Chapter 367

Yao Buqi finally realized that Zhou Shu was not Mi Ziwen. Facing Zhou Shu, he had no room for negotiation.

The key was that a fellow who could fight a great demon to a draw or even win was indeed qualified to speak to him like this!

“Very well!” Yao Buqi swallowed his anger. A wise man submitted to circumstances. He would endure this today!

“King of the South, do you know that your Ten Nations Continent is in danger?” Yao Buqi said solemnly.

Zhou Shu looked up at him, his eyes cold.

“Don’t make a fool of yourself with rumors you’ve heard,” Zhou Shu said. “You’re a demonic beast. Isn’t it good to be straightforward? Why do you have to learn from the dregs of the human race?”

Swish!

Shi Songtao laughed. “Yao Buqi, did you learn your human language from a fortune teller?”

Yao Buqi glared at Shi Songtao. Don’t let me get the chance, or I’ll bite you to death!

“I’m giving you one last chance to clear things up in three sentences,” Zhou Shu said. “If your news is of value to me, I’ll consider letting you go.”

…

Yao Buqi wanted to ask, Why should I believe you? What if I tell you, and you don’t let me go?

But he didn’t dare.

He had been here for some time and knew that Zhou Shu had the final say in this camp.

He said he’ll give me a chance to say three sentences. If I can’t make myself clear in three sentences, he really might tell me to get the hell out.

With his strength, he has the right to be willful.

In the end, with his cultivation level that could defeat Yao Lian, even if the Demon Realm attacked the Ten Nations Continent, he might not die…

“I’ll say it!” Yao Buqi said.

“That counts as one sentence,” Shi Songtao said.

If looks could kill, Shi Songtao would have been cut into pieces by Yao Buqi.

In the past, Yao Buqi would not even bother to look at a human who was not even a Grandmaster.

Now, this person actually looked down on him like this!

A tiger… no, a deer in the plains is bullied by a dog1! Yao Buqi thought hatefully. He didn’t even look at Shi Songtao.

“Your human race’s imperial cauldrons are already damaged, and cracks have appeared in the barrier of the Ten Nations Continent.” Yao Buqi said.

“The Demon Realm army has already gathered and is preparing to attack the Ten Nations Continent. The Demon Realm army that came to this world is only the vanguard. Moreover, Lord Yao Lian is carrying a secret mission!”

Yao Buqi wasn’t very proficient in human language to begin with. Now that he was worried that Zhou Shu would interrupt him, he spoke a little faster. After a series of words, he felt a little out of breath.

“That’s it?” Zhou Shu was a little disappointed.

He thought there was a big secret.

He had already known that the imperial cauldrons were damaged for a long time.

He had even seen Great Qin’s imperial cauldron with his own eyes.

It was no secret that the Demon Realm was going to invade the Ten Nations.

Why else would they organize the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament?

On the other hand, he was actually interested in the mission Yao Lian had.

“Yao Buqi, you want your freedom in exchange for this information? You think too much of yourself, don’t you?” Zhou Shu laughed coldly. “Deputy Pavilion Master, tell him if this is a secret.”

“Yao Buqi, listen up. Our human expert Cao Chenyang returned from the Demon Realm a few days ago. We already know what you just said.” Shi Songtao said proudly, “We even know that Great Wei colluded with your Demon Realm.”

Yao Buqi was stunned. As a captive, he was not qualified to know the news Cao Chenyang brought back.

“No…” Yao Buqi struggled and said, “You definitely don’t know how your imperial cauldrons were damaged!”

“Isn’t it just that Great Qin tried to use its imperial cauldron to steal the power of the Demon Realm and lost control?” Shi Songtao said disdainfully.

“Alright, take him out,” Zhou Shu said angrily. “I’m busy.”

Mi Ziwen was a little embarrassed. He had been fooled by this demon.

“Wait a minute!” Yao Buqi shouted. “There’s one thing you definitely don’t know!”

Without waiting for Zhou Shu to ask, he broke free from Shi Songtao’s grip and continued, “Lord Yao Lian has an imperial cauldron!”

“What did you say?” Zhou Shu frowned and finally looked up at Yao Buqi.

The imperial cauldrons were where the veins of the Ten Nations were located, and they had always been in the hands of the rulers of the Ten Nations.

Previously, the emperors had used the Ten Imperial Cauldrons to open the space of the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament.

If any of the imperial cauldrons were lost, it was impossible to open this battlefield space.

How was it possible that Yao Lian had an imperial cauldron?

“To be precise, it’s probably a replica of an imperial cauldron,” Yao Buqi said. “Otherwise, it would be impossible for Lord Yao Lian to come to this world.

“Although there’s a problem with the barrier between the two worlds, experts above the first stage of the Martial Dao are still unable to pass through. Lord Yao Lian was able to pass through the barrier and come to this world because of the fake imperial cauldron.”

Zhou Shu and Mi Ziwen looked at each other. So that was it.

No wonder no great demon had come to the battlefield space during the previous Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournaments. But this time, a great demon had suddenly descended.

“Where did the fake imperial cauldron come from? You demons don’t have a forger, right?” Zhou Shu asked.

“Why not?” Yao Buqi said. “Yao Qing’s father—”

He stopped mid-sentence.

Yao Qing’s father was human…

“You mean Ji Lutian helped forge an imperial cauldron?” Zhou Shu frowned.

According to what he knew before, Ji Lutian should be on the humans’ side.

Would he help the Demon Realm forge an imperial cauldron?

Besides, did he have the ability?

The imperial cauldrons were not ordinary weapons. Even though Zhou Shu had come into contact with one before, he wouldn’t be able to replicate it.

Although Ji Lutian was a Grand Craftsman, Zhou Shu didn’t think he had the ability to imitate the imperial cauldron.

“No.” Yao Buqi shook his head. “I don’t know where the imperial cauldron came from. My father didn’t tell me.”

“Other than allowing Yao Lian to descend into this world in advance, what other use does that fake imperial cauldron have?” Zhou Shu asked.

“It can connect with the power of the mountains and rivers, greatly increasing Lord Yao Lian’s strength,” Yao Buqi said. “But that imperial cauldron is an imitation. It can only be used once. After using it, the cauldron will be useless.”

“Do you mean to say that Yao Lian can only unleash his increased power once?” Zhou Shu pondered. “How much can it increase his strength?”

Unless Yao Lian’s strength increased tenfold, he could still kill him.

The strength of the great demon Yao Lian was about 25 times his current strength.

Even if it doubled, it was only equivalent to 50 times his current combat strength.

But Zhou Shu’s strength was still increasing, and so was his supreme ability Total Annihilation.

The next time he attacked, his strength would definitely be stronger than now. Moreover, the enhancement of Total Annihilation would definitely increase.

Zhou Shu didn’t believe that a fake imperial cauldron could increase Yao Lian’s combat strength tenfold.

“I’m not too sure how much more exactly,” Yao Buqi said. “But it must be at least fifty percent.”

“Only fifty percent,” Zhou Shu said disdainfully. He had thought that it would at least double. A fake was just a fake.

“Yao Buqi, your secret has no value at all,” Zhou Shu said. “But you seem to know your place. I’ll give you another chance.

“There’s a special type of five elements jade in the Demon Realm. If you can find me tens of thousands of kilograms of five elements jade, I’ll return your freedom.”

“Five elements jade? Tens of thousands of kilograms?” Yao Buqi’s eyes widened. “You might as well kill me! Even my life is not worth tens of thousands of kilograms of five elements jade!

“It would be better if you could snatch the replica of the imperial cauldron from Lord Yao Lian. That replica used a lot of five elements jade…”

As soon as Yao Buqi said this, he realized that he had let it slip and quickly covered his mouth.
