Chapter 623: Chapter 287: Arranging Xichuan_2

Therefore, for Lu Yuan, accepting Xichuan State is not a problem. However, whether to accept the monks of the White Phoenix Temple deserves consideration and deep thought.

However, it seems that the White Phoenix Temple side has already considered this issue. Hearing Lu Yuan asking, Hui An replied: “If the king is willing to accept, the monks of our temple, including Master Jihui, all wish to serve the king.

We only ask the king to choose a location within Chu State territory for us to rebuild the Mountain Gate.

If the king is unwilling to accept, we only ask the king to open the road and let us pass.

Although the White Phoenix Temple has moved to Xichuan, we still have some branches and foundation in Linhai County in Ning Country. Our temple also has some connections with the Jinling officials, so we could return to Linhai County and rebuild the White Phoenix Temple.”

Hui An presented two choices: sheltering them or letting them go on their way.

Well, their options do not include Hanzhong State.

Although Hanzhong State is indeed close by.

However, the current situation is becoming clear. With the original territory of Xichuan State being occupied by Nanzhao Country, Hanzhong State faces the unfavorable situation of being caught in a pincer attack from both north and south.

Even at this moment, Zhou Country may be preparing to attack Hanzhong State.

Considering the other side’s weak national strength, the monks of White Phoenix Temple have analyzed that they may not be able to hold on for long in this kind of situation.

Perhaps within two or three years, or at the most three to five years, Hanzhong State will likely follow the fate of Xichuan State and face annihilation in the midst of an exhausted and unprepared war.

This game of world domination belongs exclusively to the powerful and large countries.

Small countries like Xichuan and Hanzhong, which don’t even possess a single county territory, are not qualified to participate.

If they insist on joining, the consequence will be like the current Xichuan State.

Having experienced such profound lessons, the monks of White Phoenix Temple do not wish to go through the agony of choice again.

Moreover, even if they wanted to join Hanzhong State, whether Hanzhong State dares to accept them is another question.

Even accepting the White Phoenix Temple in Chu State is fraught with concerns and worries about hidden dangers.

With Hanzhong State’s capacity, would it really dare to accept the White Phoenix Temple? Aren’t they afraid of the temple taking over like a cuckoo occupying a magpie’s nest or using them as a shell?

So, based on the above considerations, in order to ensure a stable future and the continuation of the sect, the White Phoenix Temple would only move to a powerful country.

Such as Chu State or Ning Country, for example.

If these two countries do not accept, then the next options would be Zhou Country or Liang Country.

With the bargaining chips and foundation of the White Phoenix Temple, there would always be a suitable buyer in this world of great strife.

After all, it is an Inborn Grandmaster and hundreds of monks with impressive martial arts skills.

If used well, this power can greatly enhance the strength of a nation.

As for Chu State, one of the considerations, after hearing Hui An’s conditions, Lu Yuan contemplated for a long time, and then slowly said: “60 miles southeast of Stone City, there is a Longyu Mountain. This mountain is spiritual and elegant, with a splendid landscape and is known as one of the famous mountains in the southwest region. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

If your temple does not mind, you may move there and rebuild the Mountain Gate.

This lonely king will also instruct local officials to assist in the construction of the temple, and all personnel and supplies will be the responsibility of the government.”

After much thought, Lu Yuan decided to accept the White Phoenix Temple.

The temptation of an Inborn Combat Power was too great for him to bear; he wanted to keep it by his side.

Especially considering the current situation in Chu State, with scarce top-level combat power, if Jihui could be enlisted, there would be a significant relief from the current predicament.

With Lu Yuan’s strength at this time, he was confident enough to suppress the other party and make Jihui obey obediently.

Not to mention, several hundred people of the White Phoenix Temple could be used as hostages.

Moreover, to be honest.

If Chu State does not keep Jihui and sends him to Ning Country, or to Zhou Country or Liang Country, wouldn’t that be tantamount to adding an Inborn Grandmaster to the enemy, making the defense pressure on Great Chu even greater?

How could Lu Yuan do something that would help the enemy?

So, although the White Phoenix Temple seemed to have given a choice, in fact, both sides understood that there was really only one option.

That is for Chu State to accept them.

As expected, upon hearing Lu Yuan’s words, Hui An immediately changed his tone: “The king is willing to accept us. The more than 300 monks of White Phoenix Temple are grateful. Your servant Hui An pays respects to the king.”

“Your servant Hui Ming pays respects to the king.”

After receiving Lu Yuan’s promise, the two monks of the White Phoenix Temple performed the ritual of monarch and ministers, establishing their status.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but show a smile on his face, and waved his hand: “The two loyal subjects, please rise.”

“Thank you, your majesty.”

Hearing this, Hui An and Hui Ming stood up one after the other.

With the people standing up, Lu Yuan pondered for a moment and then asked: “Since Xichuan State is willing to surrender and the White Phoenix Temple has joined our Chu State, we are now one family. As a family, I will not beat around the bush.

Hui An, tell me the truth, what is the current condition of Master Jihui’s body? Can he still fight against an Inborn Grandmaster?”

Now that they have prepared to accept Xichuan State, how to accept it and how to contain the advancing Nanzhao Country after accepting it is an issue that Chu State must face and ponder.

And in these matters, Jihui’s participation is unavoidable.

Previously, news from Xichuan State and Jianchuan State said that Jihui had fought twice in succession, both times being seriously injured and fleeing.

It was a lot for an Inborn Grandmaster to endure being severely injured twice in just half a year.

Therefore, Lu Yuan must understand Jihui’s physical condition in order to decide on the next strategy in Xichuan.

Hearing such a straightforward question, Hui An hesitated for a moment, but looking at Lu Yuan’s sharp gaze, he finally let out a sigh and said: “Your majesty, the current physical condition of Master Jihui is very bad.”
