Rise of the Great Emperor Chapter 446: A Deal (4)

Chapter 446: A Deal (4)

Lin Xiao grinned. "I'm going to use this to benefit us. Since it's blocking us from advancing yet at the same time protecting this area, I'm only going to change the wordings so that it would not block us anymore."
"You can do that?" Princess Lan Yi Hua was surprised. She could only understand half of them but she didn't think that it would be possible to replace the writings.
"Yes…"
Looking at the writings before him… which actually looked like an essay, Lin Xiao smiled speechlessly.
He raised his hand as he began to concentrate the ancient power within his body. For the past few months (and 2 years he spent in the Phoenix Inheritance World), his ancient power had swelled so much. It was increasing at rapid speed and by now, Lin Xiao knew that there was no one who could compare to him in these four kingdoms.
It helped him to hide his Dragon Power and most importantly, it helped him to grow much stronger than what he was in the past.
Swish!
The writings suddenly changed as Lin Xiao began to change word per word. His eyes were looking at the essay solemnly as he tried to keep the wordcount the same. While he didn't know why, he felt that if he changed the number of words, it would be castatrophic.
The others were silent.
They didn't want to disturb Lin Xiao when he was making the changes.
Bang!
The sudden sound startled them but at the same time both Princess Lan Yi Hua and Prince Lin San naturally felt that the restrictive feelings they had in the past had disappeared. They could make their breakthrough anytime and the amount of Qi they needed was also provided in this place.
Their eyes shone with surprise.
Lin Xiao smiled happily. "Shall we make our breakthrough first?"
"You're already ready to make your breakthrough?" The others were stunned. They all knew that Lin Xiao had only made his breakthrough just yesterday.
"Yep." Lin Xiao knew that to make the breakthrough from Golden Core Stage 3 to Golden Core Stage 4 meant that they had to undergo the tribulation. He was ready and tribulation of fire didn't really mean much to him.
His lake element was the perfect counter.
But it would be a bit different with the next tribulation that one had to undergo when they make their breakthrough to Golden Core Stage 7 later.
He would have to work a bit harder.
"In that case, what are you waiting for?" Prince Lin San was excited. He pumped his fist. "Let's all make our breakthrough first before returning!"
"En."
…
Back in Sun Kingdom.
Prince Lin Yan was the most sensitive of the changes. Upon sensing that the restriction was partially lifted, the corner of his lips curled up. He then walked to the front hall and saw Elder Wang over there along with Prince Lin Xian.
In front of them were some elders from Jade Snow Kingdom.
"Your Highness," Prince Fu Liang also noticed Prince Lin Yan and greeted based on etiquette.
Prince Lin Yan nodded and crossed his arms. "Can you make modification rather than destroying the restriction?"
"That's… impossible." Prince Fu Liang looked at Prince Lin Yan in surprise. "To be able to make changes in the pillars, one had to understand more than 6000 ancient words that existed. That's not possible."
"In that case, what we're going to offer is for all of you to be able to benefit from having the restriction lifted but the protection array is intact." Prince Lin Yan's lips curled up to form a smile. "In that case, would you accept this condition?"
The elders were stunned. They were looking at each other for a moment before coming to a decision.
Prince Fu Liang noticed that Prince Lin Yan was looking in his direction and he could only smile bitterly. It seemed that no matter how Jade Snow Kingdom was trying to benefit with their knowledge, it was far lesser than what Sun Kingdom could do.
They could only rescind to their fate.
…
Another month passed by quietly. By now, Jade Snow Kingdom have long accepted the fact that they would not be able to gain the upper hand from the deal.
They submitted.
And with that, they transferred the information of the other two areas and agreed to cooperate. The Emperor was now was nothing more than a vassal and the kingdom was officially annexed by Sun Kingdom.
The tiring process was not long as they were completely suppressed.
Of course, the benefit of the lake that Lin Xiao made was apparent as more and more people wanted to come to Sun Kingdom Capital City.
Bing Yue Kingdom wanted to stay firm at first but since the other two had already submitted and formally annexed, they couldn't last long either. It only took some negotiations before Bing Yue Kingdom was also annexed by Sun Kingdom and some paperwork had to be done.
In addition, Lin Xiao also didn't let them easily.
Only those who made the oath to the Heaven was accepted to stay by his side. Thus, there were more than 100 people who swear their oath from all three kingdoms.
The number of people in Lin Xiao's hand increased rapidly.
The feelings… was a bit strange.
But since they were now following Lin Xiao, he would not mistreat them in the slightest bit. The formation also affected them and lifted their restriction, allowing them to reach the rank that they have never thought they would be able to reach in their entire life.
Many people advanced to rank 4.
And some lucky people even advanced to rank 5. Those who had been suppressed by the restriction now could proudly stick their chest out.
But of course, they didn't dare to do anything in front of Lin Xiao as their lives were basically in his hand.
They were not stupid enough to court their death so early.
Lin Xiao was busy to arrange everything and it took another few months before everything was ready.
