Wan Tiansheng chuckled. “Do you mean… to continue fighting?”
Xia Longwu looked at him and said indifferently, “Wan Tiansheng, you’re right about some things. When the Great Xia Mansion goes to war, the losses are the greatest and the gains the smallest. I know these things better than you, but all these years, I’ve only listened to what you say and never taken it seriously. Do you know why?”
Myriad Heavenly Saint was not surprised. He said slowly, “Understood. The Prefecture Lord needs to train the strongest army of the human race! Let the human race have a vanguard army that can fight a fierce battle!”
“I’m glad you understand!”
Xia Longwu stood up and said coldly, “In the past, the Great Zhou Prefecture was the strongest! The Great Zhou Army swept through the battlefield and was invincible! At that time, they were like this. If they won, the enemy could buy their lives with money.”
“One year, two years… ten years, a hundred years!”
“When they went to war with the heavens once, they clearly forced the enemy into a desperate situation. They felt that they could close the net and reap the rewards, but… they were wrong! That elite God Race legion fought to the death!”
“With 10,000 troops, they defeated the careless Great Zhou’s 100,000-strong army! The Great Zhou Army has already forgotten to fight to the death! The 100,000-strong army… actually collapsed!”
Xia Longwu sneered. “This is the battle of the Falling Zhou Sea recorded by the human race! A crushing defeat!”
“The 100,000 most elite troops were defeated by a remnant army! It’s unbelievable. All the races in the world are shocked. All the races suddenly realized that… the most elite troops of the human race are actually paper tigers!”
Xia Longwu’s expression turned cold. “The so-called invincible Great Zhou army destroyed the legend just like that! Because they’re used to it. Why did so many people die in war?”

Xia Longwu looked at Myriad Heavenly Saint and said in a deep voice, “The lesson is right in front of us. Myriad Heavenly Saint, do you still think there’s no need to fight a tough battle?”
“Not so.”
The Myriad Heavenly Saint shook his head and continued, “But the Great Xia Prefecture really can’t hold on anymore! Prefecture Lord, Zhang Chi is righteous. We can’t completely deny the Great Zhou Army just because they lost once. The reason why the Great Zhou Army can quickly rise again is because they gained a lot in the past, so they can quickly build another elite corps!”
“As for our Great Xia Prefecture… if we lose the Longwu Guards, it will be difficult to build another Longwu Guards!”

Xia Longwu assumed a commanding position as he looked down condescendingly.
The Myriad Heavenly Saint did not avoid him. He looked straight at Xia Longwu and said again, “Retreat. Negotiate. Buy your lives with resources!”
“I, Xia Longwu, am the soul of the Great Xia Prefecture. I can’t retreat!”
“You’ll still have to retreat!”
The previously refined Myriad Heavenly Saint was aggressive, his eyes sharp. “If we don’t retreat, the Great Xia Civilization Academy will never provide the Longwu Guards with a single soldier again. No more Civilization Masters will enter the Longwu Guards to fight!”
“Are you threatening me?”
Xia Longwu’s tone was low. Myriad Heavenly Saint stood up with a serious expression. “I won’t retreat. I’d rather let the teachers and students in the academy join the Great Zhou Prefecture than let the students of the academy die on the Allskies Battlefield in order to achieve your reputation!”
“B*stard!”
Zheng Ping said angrily, “Myriad Heavenly Saint, are you going to betray the Great Xia Prefecture?”
“No, I’m saving the Great Xia Prefecture. I’m willing to fight for the human race, not for the lone man!”
Myriad Heavenly Saint suddenly took off the crown on his head and said in a deep voice, “Myriad Heavenly Saint requests to resign from his position as the head of the Great Xia Prefecture!”
Xia Longwu stared at him for a long time without saying anything.
At this moment, the old man on the left smiled and said, “Prefecture Lord Wan, stop teasing Prefecture Lord Zheng.”
Zheng Ping frowned at them, a little unhappy. What did he mean?
The old man chuckled. “We still have to retreat. The Great Xia Prefecture has been fighting for decades and has suffered too much. The losses are too great. This time, the Prefecture Lord summoned you to discuss this matter.”
“Since you’ve guessed it, why should you embarrass the Prefecture Lord…”
Myriad Heavenly Saint pretended to be confused. “What do you mean?”
The old man laughed and shook his head. “You’re still the same as before. Let me tell you. Can’t you guys calm down?”
“The Prefecture Lord wants to retreat… but he can’t. He’s a banner of the human race and the soul of the Great Xia Prefecture. If he retreats, what will the frontline soldiers think?”
“He’s not the shameless Zhu Tiandao…”
The hall, which had been at daggers drawn, was suddenly filled with laughter.
Even the unsmiling Xia Longwu sat down at this moment and coughed lightly. “Nonsense! Don’t spout nonsense. Manor Lord Zhu… Ahem, ahem, you still have to be shameless when you need to be.”
Everyone laughed. The old man also laughed. “Yes, I was wrong. Let’s not talk about that. Let’s continue the topic just now. It’s necessary to retreat. The Longwu Guards can’t exchange thousands of people for the 10,000 guards of the Heavenly Yi God Race.”
“But not in the name of the Prefecture Lord.”
“The Prefecture Lord has killed a few experts of the Heavenly Yi God Race. He needs to enter seclusion immediately.”
“I’ve gathered the two of you here today for the grand ceremony in a few days… The Prefecture Lord is in seclusion, and Lord Xia Hou will temporarily take over the position of the residence master. At that time… Myriad Heavenly Saint, you can come again, like today.”
The old man smiled. “Tell Lord Xia Hou to retreat! The governor is in seclusion and doesn’t care about anything. It has nothing to do with him.”
“Even if the soldiers on the front line are dissatisfied, it doesn’t matter. Lord Xia Hou won’t care about these things.”
“Lord Xia Huo is a merchant to begin with. Let him talk to the Heavenly Yi God Race about compensation, about losses, and about the price. At that time, the Heavenly Yi God Race will not suspect anything, and the All Races would not see the weakness of the Great Xia Prefecture.”
At this moment, Zheng Ping understood and couldn’t help but scold in a low voice, “Old man, is this appropriate? Lord Xia Hou… Every time you have a scapegoat, you throw it on him. Now, there are already countless criticisms outside…”
