Chapter 18 Falling into the quagmire and bargaining

The three masters joined forces to attack!

In this world, a few years ago, the descendants of Tianjing, the leader of the Demon Alliance, Jiu Qiansui, and Yan Emperor, all had retired one after another. Even the Chiyou Tiger Soul Sword and the descendants of the Seven Major Deads, "Happy", who once shined in the martial arts world, were nowhere to be found.

It can be said that the martial arts world has begun to fall towards the immortal martial arts from Shenwu.

Although the three great masters, as well as the Tiandao Song Que and the Evil King Shi Zhixuan, are also rare masters, these people always have an indelible distance compared to the above masters. Not to mention, the people present can only be described as miscellaneous fish in front of the above masters. Not to mention, when the above masters were scattered in the martial arts world, these people almost had no chance to confront these god-demon-level masters, and had never even seen the power of god-demon-level masters!

In this way, although they knew the terror of gods and demons, they never witnessed it with their own eyes.

And now, what they are facing is a god-demon-level master!

With Gu Xiao's current cultivation level, if he really let go of his hands and takes out all his strength, even if he faces Dugu Xingye, the evil emperor of Xuantian hundreds of years ago, he will be enough to fight a difficult-to-solve. Not to mention, there is only a group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals in front of him!

The void was shattered, and then the three masters joined forces and were all easily cracked.

Then, the extremely terrifying golden sword energy fell on the three masters.

Puchi! Blood splattered, and the three masters were injured and retreated at the same time, and blood fell from above the sky.

"You are the only one left, Ning Daoqi, die!" One move was just one move. Compared with the top masters of gods and demons, there was an indelible distance. Gu Xiao's understatement of several moves caused several masters to be injured.

Until now, only Ning Daoqi is left yet to retreat.

But it is worthless.

At this point, Chaoyang Tianshi, the four great saints monks, Song Que and others also understood that the difference between them and the little devil in front of them was too far. If he really wanted to kill them, then within most moves, they could cut off their heads.

There is a terrible gap between each other!

"Wait." Just as Gu Xiao was about to take action, a voice suddenly interrupted his movements.

Gu Xiao turned his head and saw that among these people, Chaoyang Tianshi, who was the most threatening to him and was eliminated at the earliest, flew up from below and came to him.

Master Chaoyang had obviously taken the medicine for injury. Although his face was pale now, it was no longer hindered from his actions. He said, "Master I am very strange. Your martial arts skills are not as good as Yang Su. Even Mahaye's bald thief may not be as good as that. Since that's the case, why do you want to be Yang Su as your teacher?"

"It's not your business." Gu Xiao said calmly.

"You should hurry up and think of a way to die for you as soon as possible. I will give you a chance to choose a way of death!"

"What if I accept this imperial edict?" Song Que reached out his hand and grabbed the yellow silk imperial edict on the ground in his hand, and said in a deep voice, "I accept Yang Jian's invitation. From now on, I will be the Duke of Qiao of the Great Sui Dynasty!"

Now that things have come to this point, even if Song Que does not want to accept this imperial edict, he can only go on. Otherwise, today may be the end of the Song family. It doesn’t matter if Song Que’s personal life or death, but the Song family must not be cut off. Otherwise, when he reaches the nine fountains, what will he face to meet his ancestors?

Gu Xiao said: "Do you think it is still possible to accept this imperial edict now?"

Song Que smiled and said, "It will work naturally! Before the fight started, my disciples from the Song family had already begun to withdraw from the Song family mountain city. Even if you kill us now and pacifying the Song family mountain city does not mean that the Sui Dynasty can pacify Lingnan."

"Once my Song family is broken into pieces, relying on the prestige of my Song family in Lingnan, it will be difficult for the Sui Dynasty to pacify Lingnan. It will even fall into a situation of frequent rebellion. By then, Lingnan will become a piece of idiot for the Sui Dynasty. It is tasteless to eat, and it is a pity to abandon it!"

The way of military strategy is to think about defeat first and then win!

Song Que is a master of military tactics that he has obtained in the world, so naturally he cannot not understand this. Therefore, before the fight, no matter how strong he was in his own way, he had already made a move after failure, so he asked Song Zhi and Song Lu to prepare to withdraw his clan members in advance.

In this way, even if he was defeated or even died in battle, the Song family would not be cut off from his hands.

"Okay, what a Song Que." Gu Xiao said indignantly.

This is indeed something he or Yang Su and Yang Guang are worried about. The Song family has a very high prestige in Lingnan, and almost all the aliens around them respect the orders of the Song family. Once the Song family activates their strong prestige, even if the Sui family enters Lingnan, they will only fall into a mud pit.

Because of this, Yang Su's order was: "Take Song Que's head or surrender back!"

Otherwise, he would directly order him to carry Song Que's head back.

"Okay, you have accepted the imperial edict, but the conditions for this imperial edict need to be changed." Gu Xiao took a deep breath and added.

Song Que said: "How to change it?"

Gu Xiao said: "The title of Duke Qiao is still yours, but it cannot open the shoveling government. You can set up officials below the chief and historian, but these people cannot interfere in local government affairs. The Lingnan army still belongs to you, but at least half of them must be in the hands of the officials in Lingnan of the Great Sui Dynasty."

This is, it can be used to be an imperial examination, but its autonomy is greatly reduced.

Half of the control of the army is a check and balance against Song Que!

At this moment, no one among the people present dared to continue to regard Gu Xiao as a child.

This is not a child, it is just an old fox that has accumulated over a long time! This is what Song Que and others say about Gu Xiao now.

Song Que bargained: "There are too many soldiers and horses, at most 20%.

At this point, you can't do without bleeding! But at least you can't bleed heavily!

"Twenty percent is too small, at least 40%!"

"40% are unlucky, 30%. The soldiers sent by the imperial court to Lingnan account for at most 30%, and these people cannot interfere in some of my government affairs! As for the taxes that should be paid, 30% must be intercepted as the expenses of me, the Duke of Qiao!" Song Que gave his own conditions.

Gu Xiao said: "One percent, at most 10 percent of the tax is intercepted."

"Trade." Song Que agreed.
