MMORPG: War God, You are Invincible Again-Chapter 1179 - 159: Negotiation

Chapter 1179: Chapter 159: Negotiation
The founding of the Great Qi, the glory of the Divine Spirit Clan, and the downfall of the Titan God King of Unshore Sea—the news spread rapidly across the vast Heavenly Continent as if it had grown wings.
The experience of the founding of the Great Qi shocked the entire Heavenly Realm, especially the downfall of the Titan God King, revealing an ending no one had ever imagined.
In the understanding of all Titans, the Divine King was invincible and irrefutable, a god in their hearts, the unchallenged Dominator. Yet, with the downfall of the Titan God King of Weian Sea, they realized that even the once exalted Divine King was not so invincible; he had weaknesses and could be killed!
Moreover, the founding of the Great Qi truly established control over a vast realm, with the Great Qi King assuming the position of a Realm Master, equivalent to taking over the Titan God King’s position, becoming the true dominator of a great realm. This allure was the ultimate goal pursued by every Clan Leader of the Titan Clan.
Within half a year, the biggest impact of the news of the God King of Wei An Sea’s downfall was that wars among various great realms became more frequent.
Countless Titan Clans began more intense battles and annexations, aiming to expand themselves and emulate the actions of the Great Qi, establishing an unparalleled legacy to rival the Titan God King.
Although half a month had passed, and most of those who participated in the founding of the Great Qi had left, returning to their respective clan realms, a few high-ranking members of the Titan Clan still chose to stay in the capital of the Great Qi.
Lu Hong and Zuo Shahe were among them.
"Master, why are we still staying in the Great Qi?" Zuo Shahe expressed his confusion over Lu Hong’s decision.
To stay in the capital of the Great Qi without worries, Lu Hong brought Zuo Shahe along for friendly discussions with the Di Long Clan and the Xia Clan, another faction from the Ten Thousand Mountains.
Facing the arrivals of Lu Hong and Zuo Shahe, the Clan Leader of the Di Long Clan felt quite puzzled: "What brings you two here?"
Lu Hong glanced at the things inside the room; it was evident that the Clan Leaders of the Xia Clan and the Di Long Clan had begun packing up, preparing to return to the Ten Thousand Mountains. They hadn’t hurried back immediately because Zuo Shahe hadn’t left yet, and with the three Clan Leaders not in their clans, no large-scale war could erupt in the Ten Thousand Mountains.
"Clan Leader Di Long, I have an important matter to discuss with the two of you, something concerning the survival of our three clans in the Ten Thousand Mountains. I hope you can give me a chance to explain," Lu Hong requested while standing on Zuo Shahe’s shoulder, addressing the Di Long Clan Leader.
Hearing this, the Di Long Clan Leader frowned slightly but didn’t refuse. He stepped aside, cupped his hands, and said, "Then please come in!"
For Lu Hong, this Divine Spirit Clan member, the Clan Leaders of the Di Long Clan and the Xia Clan were quite wary. They were also Titan Clans of the Ten Thousand Mountains, and while others might not know, they were very clear about how the Zuo Sha Clan had developed and grown.
It was precisely due to the joining of this human before them that the Titan strength within the Zuo Sha Clan significantly improved, allowing them to conquer half of the Ten Thousand Mountains’ territory with the power of just one clan.
It could be said that without the transformation brought by Lu Hong to the Zuo Sha Clan, the Zuo Sha Clan might have long been annexed or completely wiped out during the Titan Clan’s campaigns.
Entering the room, Di Long called out to the Xia Clan Leader, who was resting in the inner room.
The Xia Clan Leader, stepping out of the inner room, immediately saw Zuo Shahe and frowned, then said in a deep voice, "Why is Clan Leader Zuo Sha here?"
"Clan Leader Xia, my master has an important matter to discuss with our three clans. I hope Clan Leader Xia can be accommodating."
Hearing Zuo Shahe’s response, the Xia Clan Leader cast his gaze on Lu Hong, standing on Zuo Shahe’s shoulder. His pupils slightly contracted, then he nodded, saying, "Well, I’ve heard there’s a talented Divine Spirit Clan member in the Zuo Sha Clan. I didn’t expect to hear him speak one day."
Soon, the three sat down.
Lu Hong jumped onto the table the three had gathered around, an ordinary stone table for the Titan Clan, more like a large platform to Lu Hong.
Facing the gazes of the three Clan Leaders of the Ten Thousand Mountains, Lu Hong did not waste any words and directly asked the Di Long Clan and the Xia Clan Leaders, "Elders, I believe the event of the Great Qi’s founding half a month ago has already planted a seed in both of you that is about to germinate, right?"
The Di Long Clan Leader smiled slightly, "Of course, I believe everyone who saw the founding of the Great Qi has the same thought, trying to pursue the same goal. Isn’t that what Clan Leader Zuo Sha also thinks?"
Saying that, the Di Long Clan Leader looked up at Zuo Shahe.
Zuo Shahe did not shy away: "Of course, being a King is far more inspiring than being a Clan Leader. This is the ultimate goal that my peers pursue."
The Xia Clan Leader did not speak, but his current expression clearly conveyed his thoughts.
Regarding their attitudes, Lu Hong was not surprised, nodding slightly, then asked the three, "Do you know why the founding of the Great Qi was successful?"
"This...," Di Long fell silent; he hadn’t really thought about it in detail, just dreaming of becoming a King and ruling a realm during this time.
The previously silent Xia Clan Leader spoke: "There are roughly three reasons: first, unifying a realm; second, a mature and advanced state system, making the Titans within the Great Qi unprecedentedly united; third, a powerful assistance that allowed them to successfully overthrow the Divine King. Without defeating the Titan God King, the Great Qi could not have successfully established a country."
Hearing the Xia Clan Leader’s response, Lu Hong was quite surprised. He did not expect this leader to also have such keen insight, seeing through the key points.
Lu Hong nodded: "The Xia Clan Leader is entirely correct. These three aspects were all essential for the successful founding of the Great Qi, but in truth, among these three, the third is the most crucial. Unifying a realm is not that difficult; the real challenge lies in handling the relations with the Titan God King after unification. The God King governs a realm, and founding a state is also announcing taking over the governance of a realm. The two powers clash, and only bloodshed can resolve this conflict. No matter which of the three clans in the Ten Thousand Mountains eventually unifies, they will face the wrath of the Titan God King. Without sufficient strength to deal with the Titan God King, talk of unified realms and enduring kingdoms is mere empty talk. I believe even if you haven’t realized this now, you will feel it soon. However, this isn’t the key point of what I want to talk about today."
"Oh?" The Xia Clan Leader raised an eyebrow, interested: "Please, do tell more."
Under the Xia Clan Leader’s sign, Lu Hong continued, "Do you recall the mention of Bergen by the Titan God King of Unshore Sea before his downfall?"
Hearing this, the three looked at each other, then nodded, "We heard it, but we don’t know what this Bergen is."
This answer didn’t surprise Lu Hong because indeed, no one knew.
"That’s why I hope you two can stay a bit longer in the capital of the Great Qi. We, the three clans of the Ten Thousand Mountains, currently lack the strength to contend with the Titan God King, so there’s no rush to unify. Instead, we might as well find out about the crises a future kingdom will face first. Didn’t the Titan God King say that without his suppression, Bergen would soon emerge from the Dark Side, threatening the Unshore Sea? Given this, we might as well stay in the capital of the Great Qi, waiting for Bergen’s appearance. By observing the confrontation between the Great Qi and Bergen, we can understand the enemy we will face in the future. Regardless of which clan eventually unifies the Ten Thousand Mountains, I believe everyone hopes the Titans in the Ten Thousand Mountains can live better lives. Therefore, I hope you will heed my advice, delay your return to the Ten Thousand Mountains, and seriously understand the enemies we will face in the future."
After listening to Lu Hong’s discourse, the two Titan Clan Leaders exchanged a glance, then the Di Long Clan Leader nodded: "As expected from the master of Clan Leader Zuo Sha. We understand now. We were initially planning to return to the Ten Thousand Mountains tomorrow to start mimicking the Great Qi, but thinking about it now, that was too rash."
Laughing, the Xia Clan Leader continued, "Let us follow your words. The three Clan Leaders will stay in the Great Qi and wait together for Bergen’s appearance."
