The several king zun did not expect Ye Zhongming to return so quickly. It had only been a short while since he left. However, after receiving the message from the Sacred Pool, they hurriedly came to meet him. After all, there was still a significant amount of time before the troops from the Temple of Dawn would arrive, and their defenses were being conducted in an orderly manner, so they were not too pressed for time.
Along with Ye Zhongming, there were also several assistants sent out by the king zun. After leaving Cloud Summit, Ye Zhongming immediately drove the Jingjue Floating Sphere to find Liang Chuyin and the others, bringing these assistants along. For the king zun, the insights from these assistants about Earth carried more credibility than Ye Zhongming's recounting.
After giving them some time to speak, the king zun finally confirmed that there indeed was another world, and it was far superior to the Blue Secret Realm. They also learned about the territory Ye Zhongming had in that world and the significant troubles he was facing.
"I need your help."
Ye Zhongming did not hide this; such matters were impossible to conceal.
The king zun had already learned about the situation from the assistants and had their own considerations. Hearing Ye Zhongming's statement, they were not surprised.
The king zun exchanged glances, and they all roughly understood each other's thoughts. In the end, it was Hongxiang king zun, who had a relatively good relationship with Ye Zhongming, who spoke up.
"Zhongming, we know you are in trouble, and it is our duty to help you. However, you are most aware of the situation regarding the posthumous children. If we send too few people, they might not be of much help. If we send too many, and they suffer heavy losses..."
Hongxiang did not continue, but Ye Zhongming understood his meaning. The enemies surrounding Cloud Summit were far too many, and the number of warriors in Cloud Summit was not large. Once the posthumous children entered the battle, they would surely be the main force. Losses were inevitable, and if casualties were too severe, it would complicate the defenses around the Royal City.
Ye Zhongming nodded in understanding but spoke with confidence, "Our agreement was that I would bring troops here to defend the Royal City. My original plan was to hire some warriors from my world to come over. But if you help me, I can send my subordinates to participate in the battle personally."
The king zun were momentarily taken aback, not understanding the difference.
"Those wearing silver and green battle armor are my warriors, all at level four or above."
After speaking, Ye Zhongming took out the latest model of Magic Crystal Firearms that he had brought with him when he left Cloud Summit Villa. He fired a shot at the ground beside him. Then he took out a magic crystal grenade and threw it into the distance.
"My subordinates use silver weapons and this type of equipment."
The king zun were all powerful figures and had a very keen sense of energy. Although Ye Zhongming's two demonstrations did not have clear targets, they could sense the power within them, and their expressions changed slightly.
"Additionally, while my world is currently in chaos, I believe you are aware of the environment there. If we can sign a comprehensive strategic alliance agreement, I can provide you with a territory in my world in the future."
This statement struck a chord with the king zun. A territory belonging to them? They had grown accustomed to maintaining the status quo, praying every day that the Temple of Dawn would not come to trouble them. When had they ever thought about expanding territory? Especially in another world?
They were indeed tempted.
However, before they could think further, Ye Zhongming spoke again.
"Of course, this isn't free. My world's land is also very tight, and every piece of land has an owner. I can help you seize land, on the condition that you provide equal exchange with the lands of the posthumous children."
Hmm?
