My name is Yi Qian and I am a soldier. Now, I am panicking.
Yi Qian looked at Lu Shu."What did you say?"
"Fight me, " said Lu Shu in an unhappy tone. If he did not fight and retaliate after advancing to Rank One, it was like traveling in cotton-padded clothes at night. No one would be able to see him!
Yi Qian thought about it. Was this young man exploring his strength? After all, he had lived for a very long time, but had never received such a strange request.
He definitely did not dare to fight Lu Shu. He did not attack because he knew how many experts were looking at him in the forest. Now, the young man had suddenly advanced. It was simply frightening.
Furthermore, he was beside this young man when the young man had advanced. He was the most affected. Thus, Sun Zhongyang and the rest only knew that Lu Shu was powerful, but did not know the extent of this power.
At that moment, Yi Qian could sense that this young man had no intention of breaking through, but suddenly exploded with power during the peace and quiet. Moreover, it was frightening thinking about what he had said.
"Even if we eventually die, that is the way of the world."
Yi Qian did not even know that Lu Shu was bragging. He thought that it was Lu Shu's Dao. If this was his Dao, this meant that his belief resonated with the heaven and the earth.
There was a saying in the Luniverse. When one advanced and resonated with the heaven and the earth, it was a process acknowledged by the heaven and the earth. If your Dao was great, but did not have the appropriate disposition or strength, you would definitely fail.
Thus... if the words of this young man were a result of his willpower resonating with the heaven and the earth, and if he was acknowledged by the heaven and the earth... this was far too frightening.
Furthermore, although Yi Qian was not a sensory type, the moment Lu Shu unlocked his celestial map, Yi Qian could feel Lu Shu's strength multiplying. It was as if half of his strength had been locked up.
Thus, he could not fight him. If he did, he would really die.
Yi Qian straightened out his thoughts and said, "Can you let me go? I have a lot of mercenary soldiers, and some savings..."
Lu Shu sighed silently. Could he encounter an obedient opponent for once? What should he do? He could not fight him "Ahem, how much?"
Lu Xiaoyu was too lazy to say anything. She sat on the tree branch and folded her arms. She stared coldly at Lu Shu. How uninteresting!
Yi Qian carefully looked up and glanced at Lu Xiaoyu. He suddenly realized that even though this girl was very young, she was giving him a lot of pressure. Where did this pair appear from? You would not be able to find such amazing geniuses even in the palace!
Lu Shu looked at Lu Xiaoyu's expression. Suddenly, he said, "I am not as greedy as you would expect. But you are lucky this time!"
Yi Qian was dumbfounded. How was he lucky?
"Look at it this way. After thinking about it, I feel that you are a talent. You were able to lead a group of disorganized soldiers and create a name for yourselves. This shows that you have excellent qualities. I want to give you an opportunity to follow me, " said Lu Shu calmly.
"From Yi Qian's distress, +666!"
Yi Qian understood. He indirectly wanted money and directly wanted manpower. If the person belonged to you, their money would also belong to you, right?
But Lu Shu thought that Yi Qian was very strong. If he were to lead a group of elite soldiers, they would become like the special forces...
If he did not encounter Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu, he would not be in such a dire situation!
Furthermore, the power that he portrayed when he advanced had to be kept secret. He also felt that Yi Qian was manpower that he could use. Thus, taking him in was Lu Shu's best choice.
Yi Qian calmly said, "Do you want me to be your slave? I'm afraid that that's not possible."
Yi Qian had been free for many years. He had not relied on wealthy families or become the slaves of others in order to maintain his freedom. He could admit his fear in order to keep his power and life, but he would never sell himself.
"No, no, no." Lu Shu shook his head."I have never taken in any slaves. I want you to sign a Treaty of Alliance."
"A Treaty of Alliance?" Yi Qian was dumbfounded."How do you know about the Treaty of Alliance?!"
Lu Shu was dumbfounded as well. What, was the Treaty of Alliance that rare?
"Why would you know about the Treaty of Alliance?" Twelve swords of different lengths suddenly appeared from the box on his back. He was ready to attack at any time.
The twelve swords had strange shapes. Lu Shu, who evidently had the upper hand, felt threatened.
Lu Shu was curious."Is the Treaty of Alliance classified information?"
Suddenly, Lu Xiaoyu asked, "Do you know Liu Yizhao, Zhang Weiyu, and Dong Ye?"
Yi Qian was ferocious."Who in the world are you? What did you do to Zhang Weiyu and the rest?"
"Ahem, nothing, nothing." Lu Shu felt that Yi Qian was on his side. He asked curiously, "Are you very familiar with them? Liu Yizhao is following me now. He has signed the Treaty of Alliance with me."
As he spoke, Lu Shu took out a small and red flame-shaped object from between his eyebrows. If you looked carefully at it, you would be able to see the faint shadow of Liu Yizhao.
This was part of Liu Yizhao's spirit that he had to give to Lu Shu when he signed the Treaty of Alliance.
At that moment, Yi Qian kept all twelve swords into the box. When Lu Shu saw this, he beamed with joy."So you're on our side..."
But before Lu Shu could finish speaking, Yi Qian wailed and knelt on the ground, his face wet with tears."My King, I have been waiting for you for so long!"
Lu Shu was suddenly annoyed. Yi Qian cried as he signed the Treaty of Alliance. He did not hesitate at all.
Lu Shu said patiently, "You might have been mistaken... I am not a king."
Yi Qian wiped his tears and said, "Impossible. I have met Liu Yizhao a few times in Nangeng City. I understand him the most. If he is not sure of your identity, why would he sign a Treaty of Alliance with you?"
While he spoke, Yi Qian knelt down and pressed his forehead on the ground as he cried."Yi Qian from the Imperial Dragon Soldiers will follow my king. I will not hesitate to defy all difficulties and dangers."
Lu Shu felt, Liu Yizhao... it was a misunderstanding!
But Lu Shu sighed with emotion. These people sacrificed everything they had for an illusory promise. No wonder these mercenary soldiers were so strong. Yi Qian had led them.
But Lu Shu was suddenly pained. Had he suddenly killed his own comrades?
Yi Qian seemed to understand what Lu Shu was thinking."My king, please do not feel that it is a pity. They were not fugitives that I had gathered. They have no loyalty. They only followed me to kill for profit. I have never passed down my techniques to them."
Lu Shu furrowed his eyebrows. He was not a king."Don't call me king."
Yi Qian seemed to understand."Yes, yes, yes. We have to be low-key. What would you like me to address you as? Great Commander?"
When Lu Shu thought about Sun Zhongyang and the rest outside, he stopped Yi Qian."Don't call me commander either. Call... call me Boss!"
Lu Shu thought. He could be considered the chairman of a company that monopolized the market, right?
