Birth of the Lord of Nature
Ch93-Meeting 1
Not long after, suddenly the door of the hall opened and showed a pair of young men and women wearing clothes that were both light blue.
Everyone stared in awe at Xu Tian and Qing Ling, how the fusion of the looks they had both made everyone feel envious.
Emperor Qing Jiang only smiled warmly at the arrival of the two.
" Okay, since the one we've been waiting for has come then we'll start this meeting." Said Emperor Qing Jiang then allowing Xu Tian and Qing Ling to sit down at the place already provided.
Xu Tian and Qing Ling nodded their heads, then walked towards a seat not far from where Emperor Qing Jiang was.
Xu Tian bowed his body towards all of them. " I apologize for making the Emperor and the Patriarchs wait a long time." Said Xu Tian giving a salute.
Although he had abilities that could not be underestimated, Xu Tian still respected all of them.
Because Xu Tian thought, if the ethics and manners about the courtesy of someone is a mirror of the personality of the individual.
No matter how tall a position you have, and no matter how strong you are, if you cannot respect others then you are no worse than trash.
Xu Yuan and Lin Hua had always taught Xu Tian to be good, so Xu Tian had mature thoughts.
Although the nature of a person is formed by themselves, but if early on it is given provision how to be a good person then the person will be able to bring himself to the right path.
Everyone did not mind Xu Tian's delay, as they already knew that Xu Tian had just arrived yesterday after going to the border.
Emperor Qing Jiang cleared his throat for everyone to refocus.
" Because everyone has been here, then I will explain some of the things we will do in the future, but before that I want to apologize to all of you for your insecurities while in this capital city. And most importantly the imperial side decided to postpone the imperial competition, all of you must have been aware of the conditions that were going on right now. But you don't have to worry because I will compensate you all." Said Emperor Qing Jiang looking towards everyone.
They did not think too much about the competition, because after all the security of the capital was the main thing.
If the imperial capital was controlled by the enemy, then all of them would also feel the impact. Especially if the enemy is from another empire.
" Emperor Qing Jiang need not feel guilty for the mess that has happened." Patriarch Ling Chen said, because he also felt responsible for the chaos that occurred.
" What Patriarch Ling Chen said was right, because this was not the Emperor's fault. We are guilty of not being able to know their movements." Matriak Xin Xia chimed.
Everyone agreed, if only they did not take their guard down and felt that if all was well, then something like this would not happen.
From this incident they all realized, if the calm water has a lot of secrets that they do not know.
Just like in the Qing empire, which had been quiet for years with little crime and conflict, they did not realize that a great danger was imminent.
If they were to be late by just a little, then not only would the Qing empire be destroyed, they would all experience the same thing.
If they didn't want to be destroyed, they would have been their slaves and it would have embarrassed their respective ancestors who had made the foundation for them to tread the path of becoming a cultivator.
Because if it wasn't them then who else would have kept the Qing Empire safe, then it would have been their duty to defend this imperial land.
" Thank you for all of you." Said Emperor Qing Jiang, feeling pleased that they were still willing to be behind him.
" I'm sorry, emperor, so what are our next plans?" Asked Patriarch Kang Jian.
" Right emperor, what should we do right now?" Said Clan Patriarch Shen.
Emperor Qing Jiang was silent, as he still did not know the exact movements of the enemy.
" What if we immediately dispatch troops to search for enemy information?" Patriarch Wang Dunrui gave the proposal.
" That's a good idea." The Ye Clan Patriarch.
Emperor Qing Jiang was still silent, until a moment later staring at Xu Tian.
Xu Tian himself knew the meaning of the gaze directed at him began to speak up.
" Sorry in advance, may I try to give you the opinion I have?" Said Xu Tian who was now standing from his seat.
" Of course, son, say." Said Matriak Xin Xia, he had actually been waiting for Xu Tian to speak up.
" Eventually." Inner Matriak Xin Xia with a smile, she was so looking forward to this.
Whereas on the other seats some Patriarch snorted unhappily at seeing Xu Tian.
They were the Patriarchs who had previously been troubled with the Xu Clan during the imperial competition preliminary round.
Xu Tian turned his attention towards the four Patriarchs.
" Is there a problem?" Xu Tian asked calmly.
" Damn!" Clan Patriarch Wu looked at Xu Tian coldly, as well as the other three Patriarchs.
" Stupid!" Inner Feng Louzhi who was also inside the Hall looked towards Patriarch Wu and the others.
" Well son, explain to us what you think of this?" Said Emperor Qing Jiang trying to melt away the tension that was going on.
" For the four of you, take care of your attitude." Emperor Qing Jiang continued to look at the four of them.
After seeing that the atmosphere had calmed down again, Xu Tian immediately began his conversation.
" Priarch Wang Dunrui said earlier that he wanted to send troops to search for information about the enemy we are facing. I will explain to you what is happening, right now we are in a situation that inevitably has to face the enemy, and there are only two options we have to do at the moment: attack or defend. I'd like to ask you all, do you choose to attack or defend?" Xu Tian asked looking at everyone.
" Patriarch Ling Chen, what did the Patriarch choose?" Said Xu Tian staring at Patriarch Ling Chen.
" If I prefer to attack the opponent."
Xu Tian nodded his head, then turned his gaze towards Matriak Xin Xia." How is Matriak's choice?"
" I'd rather stick around, but you we should also see how things are going."
" Thank you, what Matriak Xin Xia said was right, right now we should know in advance the situation that happened. Because both have their own advantages and disadvantages."
" You mean son?" Said Emperor Qing Jiang.
" If the Emperor had known the strength of the enemy, what steps would the Emperor take?" Xu Tian asked with a faint smile.
Emperor Qing Jiang tried to think for a moment. Then looked towards Xu Tian.
" I see, if we have known the strength of the enemy then we have the advantage of preparing an army and attacking them, but if we feel that the power we have is lower than them then inevitably we must keep trying to survive, because if we survive we have a greater advantage, however we fight in our own territory." Obviously Emperor Qing Jiang.
