The Hedonist Sword God 166 Protect The Boundary

"I want! I want!"

Speaking very close to how little kids sounded when asking for candy, Li Qiao managed to make Jian Shen's lips twitch for a lot longer than originally intended to.

Going inside the rooms where he received all of his most important guests in, Li Qiao and Jian Shen had just sat down on the opposite sides of the table when the maids came with a pot of tea and cups.

Smelling the scent of the tea, Jian Shen was struck with a little nostalgia and barely muttered, "Solaris Leaf Tea."

Still, Li Qiao who was in the Genesis Realm easily heard those words and nodded his head.

"Yes. This tea has been brewed from the highest grade of Solaris Leaves that I personally plucked."

Indeed if it was Li Qiao who went to personally pluck the leaves they would obviously be of a better quality and without any doubt the best quality of the leaves that could be obtained by anyone in the Mortal Realm.

After all, he was a cultivator that stood at the apex of the entire Mortal Realm by being in the Genesis Realm due to which he could go deep into the are where the Solaris Leaves grew at.

This meant that he could fight against stronger beasts and obtain better leaves, instead of just plucking then from the boundary as the weaker ones did.

Picking the teacup, Jian Shen only began sipping it after asking his swords if there was something uncommon on the tea.

And by something uncommon he meant poison, charms, and so on.

Sipping the tea Jian Shen's entire body felt was covered in a barely visible glow before disappearing.

He had too much Yang energy to absorb anymore from the tea he was drinking.

Shaking his head at this, Jian Shen looked towards Li Qiao and waited for him to speak.

It would be a lie in Li Qiao said that he wasn't disappointed with Jian Shen's master not appearing. But beggars couldn't be choosers due to which he appreciated Jian Shen's presence.

"I was hoping for having your help in the upcoming war."

"Fine, you've got it. Is that all?"

With his mouth a little wide from how simple it was, Li Qiao asked, "Do you have any idea or strategy of a kind to deal with the Taiyang Empire?"

Smirking coldly with an arrogant expression Jian Shen said, "Strategy? That's only for when you fight against equals."

Hearing those words Li Qiao's jaw dropped even lower.

What arrogance.

Not even putting the Taiyang Empire in his eyes?

Maybe only those who had a master in the False Immortal Realm deserved to be so arrogant.

"I see... In that case, can I ask you to defend our boundary until the war starts?"

"You can. But why?"

"I'm sure you already know how the Yueliang Empire is weaker than the Taiyang Empire."

Nodding his head without a much change in expression, Jian Shen patiently listened to Li Qiao.

"Well, due to this even though the two sides have decided to go to war neither side has made the first move yet to launch a full-scale battle."

"Due to this, the Taiyang Empire started sending small groups of their elite soldiers to the boundary of the Yueliang Empire and made them continuously launch attack on us."

"With repeated attacks at the wall which protect the Yueliang Empire, once the wall comes down the Taiyang Empire would definitely take the opportunity to launch a frontal attack and take us down."

Not waiting for Jian Shen to ask the obvious question, LI Qiao continued by saying, "If I send too many of my soldiers outside the wall to take care of the elite soldiers I'll end up being the first side to start the war and end up finding myself in a compromising position."

"Not to mention how much higher the lossless would be if the soldiers walk into a trap."

Nodding his head once again, Jian Shen who understood everything asked, "Where's the teleportation circle?"

With him focusing on training himself by refining all of his techniques, defending the wall against multiple enemies was one of the best ways to do it.

In fact, Li Qiao couldn't have asked Jian Shen for this at a better time.

"Uhhh... We have one inside the palace itself."

"Great. Lead me there."

Not at all behaving as if talking to the Emperor of an Empire, Jian Shen almost made Li Qiao cry from how he was being treated.

Even if you don't respect me as Emperor, shouldn't you at least pay your respects after taking my daughter away?

Keeping those words inside himself, Li Qiao began leading Jian Shen through the palace towards the teleportation circle.

If him doing this allowed him to win the war, Li Qiao didn't mind doing such a thing.

After a few twists and turns, the two of them entered a huge room with a teleportation circle drawn in the middle of the room.

With soldiers standing beside each other against the walls, and those hidden experts that hiding in the shadows, Jian Shen felt that Li Qiao was too paranoid to guard the teleportation circle with such a huge force.

Stepping on top of the circle, Jian Shen was just about to tell Li Qiao to start the array when the doors to the room were pushed open.

Barging in was Li Mei who had smokes of anger coming out of her nose.

"Don't even think about leaving without me, Jian Shen!"
