Chapter 83 Only names and implements, not fake people (please complete the order)
“This Mr. Tree Shepherd, what do you think?”
“This Mr. Tree Shepherd, What do you think?”
“Mr. Shepherd, what do you think?”
The count’s voice suddenly became ethereal, and the faces of everyone present were also affected. All become blurry.
Echoes resounded in Li Qing's mind, not only from the earl, but also from other nobles and wizards, turning into a continuous wave of sound that impacted his consciousness.
Li Qing smiled suddenly, and the visualization of Taihao Palace in the spiritual platform flickered slightly, exuding the light of green gold, and it suddenly became clear and bright.
He casually slapped Ren, who was sweating profusely, to wake him up from some kind of nightmare.
"What do I think?" Li Qing's voice gradually changed from plain to cold, "I don't think so!"
He stood up suddenly, Dao Ji whispered, The true energy vibrates, and a powerful aura belonging to the first level of foundation building sweeps across.
The two fourth-level wizards leaned back slightly to avoid his sharp edge. The other third-level wizards and golden warriors even bent over in unbearable condition, and even collapsed on their seats.
And Count Iris, who was the first to bear the brunt, had to contend with the aura of an earth warrior to resolve the powerful pressure coming from Li Qing.
"In my hometown, there is an old saying: Only names and tools, not fake people!"
Li Qing said every word: "I am here today with Baron Renn - Lettuce. This is to sever the hundreds of years of affiliation between Lettuce Island and Iris Island."
"From now on, Lettuce Island will not be a vassal, nor will it pay tribute. Establish contact with the coastal countries in the name of the Free Territory! ”
As soon as this statement came out, it was shocking!
Even Vicount Violet and Vicount Tulip looked at him in shock.
After all, they had never thought about becoming independent from the Iris Islands. They only planned to challenge the Earl's authority internally.
Leann was also extremely surprised because Li Qing did not inform him of this matter in advance.
But he was very decisive, and since he was loyal to Li Qing, he would never act in either direction.
"What Mr. Tree Shepherd means is the position of our Lettuce Island."
"The foundation of our Lettuce Island was established by our ancestors who were exposed to frost, cut thorns, and opened up on their own. I am loyal to the Iris family, but He was forced by the general trend and did not receive its favor."
He withstood the pressure of the confrontation between Li Qing and the Earl, and said one word at a time: "From today on, Lettuce Island is independent as a free territory. Proclaim yourself a vassal, do not pay tribute, and do not become a vassal. "
"Rumble--" Thunderbolts resounded in the sky outside the castle.
“How dare you!” Strange runes rose up around Count Iris’ body. They were not water, fire, wind and thunder, but clusters of iris with green leaves and purple flowers.
The iris swayed gently, exuding a faint floral fragrance, and had a strange power that made Ren's eyes glazed over. Others present were also affected.
Li Qing glanced at Ren En and smiled happily. Aoki's true energy flowed around him, turning into light and shadow that looked like iris flowers.
The pervasive floral fragrance, like a tired bird dropping into the forest, poured into his Aoki True Essence and was directly refined.
"Your Excellency, the Earl, is really hospitable!" Li Qing smiled loudly, and Aoki Zhenyuan suddenly changed his mind.
"Boom!" The real energy turned into a thunder, waking up the others.
Renn wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and hid behind Li Qing with great self-knowledge.
Li Qing's eyes were like burning eyes, and he looked directly at the count: "This is the condition of our Lettuce Island. I wonder what the count wants?"
Earl Iris looked at him deeply, and suddenly As soon as the runes around him were closed, the overwhelming aura also subsided.
"Since Mr. Tree Shepherd and Mr. Renn have made up their minds, then our Iris family also has the beauty of adulthood." After saying that, he took out a parchment roll from the gold cabinet and handed it to Renn: " This is a document signed by your ancestors and my Iris family. It will become invalid starting today.”
Renn signaled with his eyes, and after receiving Li Qing's consent, he reached out and took it.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the document was in Ren's hand, it burned with a bang and turned into a handful of black ashes, scattering all over the ground.
Ren felt light all over his body, as if some kind of shackles had been broken.
But what followed was the invisible malice coming from the void, which made the hairs on the back of his neck stand on end and goose bumps.
"Sir!" He looked at Li Qing uneasily.
Li Qing waved his hand to signal him to calm down, and then thanked the count: "Your Excellency, you are so gracious!"
The count nodded indifferently and pointed to the door of the venue: "Next, our archipelago still has important matters to discuss. Lettuce Island Since we are independent, we won’t stay any longer..."
Li Qing smiled slightly and without saying much, led Ren out of the venue.
"Sir, what are you doing today?" Renn rubbed the goosebumps on the back of his neck and said, "Why did you suddenly have a showdown with the Earl?"
According to what the two initially discussed, As long as Lettuce Island maintains the status of "obeying the instructions but not the propaganda", it has never thought about breaking up with the Iris family.
Li Qing didn't get on the carriage prepared by the castle and walked to the manor with Ren.
He raised his head and looked at the blue sky: "Do you still remember what I said? Only names and tools, not fake people!"
"Why would the earl prefer to make many concessions? Let the nobles continue to be loyal to him?"
"The golden ark?" Ren was confused, "Sir, what are you talking about?"
< br>Li Qing stopped suddenly: "What did you just say?"
Ren was startled and repeated: "My lord, why did you suddenly have a showdown with the earl?"
Li Qing was silent for a moment, then turned his head and glanced at Iris Castle: "Turn a blind eye to the name of Yi." , It’s not famous. That’s it.”
He shook his head and didn’t mention the golden ark again, and just said: “The loyalty required by the count is most likely a mysterious ritual.”< br>
“Since he has paid such a high price, he must pay it back ten times and a hundred times, so that he can live up to his drama.”
Ren suddenly understood, nodded slightly, and felt a little confused. Puzzled: "Then you suddenly fall out with him at the venue, aren't you afraid of starting a fight?"
"I heard from you that there are four level four experts in the Iris family. If there is a battle, the one who will suffer..."
Li Qing smiled: "There is no guarantee that there will be a large number of people. Who knows? You have to fight to know who is strong and weak."
"What's more, those three strong men, together with the rest of the Iris family, must have something important going on and they are too busy. Earl Shan can't fight."
The two walked and chatted for a long time before returning to the manor where they stayed.
Little Joel, who came back first, was standing in the courtyard carelessly, using dogtail grass to tease a kitten on the tree.
The cat's body was as black as ink, except for its four paws, which were white, and its eyes, which were gold and silver, giving it an indescribable aura.
Li Qing couldn't help but pause, and sent Little Joel to find the manor housekeeper to arrange dinner.
He himself walked under the tree and asked softly: "Your Excellency, this witch, why do you want to come to my yard?"
Dear friends who jumped on the reservation, please give me a reward. Face, give me a full order! The collection is not small, but the orders are suddenly disappearing, which makes my heart tremble!
