Chapter 413: 413
"The war intensified?" Xue Wei frowned, feeling it was weird . "Has it not been stable for years, and only comprised of small skirmishes? Why did it suddenly change like this?"
"Well . . . " Hei Gou looked at Xue Wei before he shook his head and sighed . "It is indirectly your fault . "
"My fault?" Xue Wei was surprised and quite shocked . Had he done nothing, he thought? Hadn’t he been entirely focused on cultivating?
Seeing him being so perplexed, Bai Tianyi shook his head and smiled . "The enemy has gotten intel that the Demon Phoenix Continent’s generals have increased their strength . They now think that the Vermilion Birds has so treasure that can mutate a Primordial Beast, and their greed has surpassed their rationality . "
"I see . " Xue Wei nodded his head . It seed that he was the reason for the war flaring up .
"So, what is it to you?" Xue Wei asked again as he looked at them, and all of them looked at one another, not sure who should speak . It was clear that they had spoken before amongst each other, but now that they had to tell Xue Wei, they were worried about his reaction .
"Co on; I don’t bite . "
"We are thinking of joining the army . " Eventually, it was Hei Gou who spoke . "We don’t really care too much about who wins and who loses the war, but we have been relaxing for a long ti . Our hands are itching for a proper fight again .
"A battlefield will be suitable or us to grow as well . We need sowhere where others can pressure us, and we feel that joining the war is the best solution for us . "
Xue Wei thought about it for so ti, before he nodded his head . Their reasons made sense, and after speaking with Hui Yue, he knew that it was, in fact, not a bad idea to go out and fight .
At the sa ti, he also knew that his advance would slow down . He was different from the others because of the nine seals on his body . He needed to use every single mont to cultivate, but he also wanted to enhance his battle experience .
Facing a difficult question, Xue Wei fell into contemplation . He was considering what to do when he suddenly heard a rage-filled roar erupting next to him, "Xue Wei! You traitor! How could you tell my uncle where to find ?!"
Xue Wei did not have to turn his head to know that it was Lan who had erged out of nowhere .
"Lan, long ti no see," Xue Wei said casually, not at all caring about the rage that was evident on the man’s face . For so weird reason, Xue Wei felt that it was impossible for Lan to really harm him .
"How could you? I have been treating you so well . Why would you tell my uncle where to find ? This won’t do, let hide by your side for so ti!"
"We are going to join the battlefield," Xue Wei said with a smile, "We are going to fight with our lives on the line to ignite our potential . With such a deity like yourself around us, how could we ever encounter life-threatening danger?"
"Don’t worry," Lan said through gritted teeth, "I will let you experience a lot of life-threatening situations!"
Xue Wei smiled slightly . As long as Lan promised not to interfere with their battles, he did not care what the older man did .
"Oh right," Xue Wei waved his hand and took the Thunder Fla Crown out of the storage treasure before he tossed it to Lan . "I got your crown . "
Lan’s rage-filled eyes changed, and a gleeful smile erupted on his lips . "You got it!" he exclaid happily and started examining the crown from every angle .
Then he stored it in his own storage treasure and he seed to look a lot less unhappy .
"Well then, let us go to visit the Emperor . We are going to join the army, so we need his approval . "
The others nodded their heads . Together with the group, including Lan, they hurried to the study where the Emperor was buried in paperwork .
"What brings you here?" He asked gently while looking at Xue Wei and the others .
"We would like to join the army," Xue Wei said straightaway . "We have been cultivating for so ti now, and we need so practical fights, so encounters to push our potential to new heights . "
The Emperor gave a deep look at the group before he nodded his head . "Then I will let you join the army," he said . "But you have to be careful . Even if you wish to train your skills and fight, you have to make sure that you are not in any life-threatening danger . "
Xue Wei nodded his head and looked at the Emperor . He could feel that the Emperor was gentle towards him because of his affection towards his mother, but he was not going to say anything .
The Emperor was also aware that he could not control Xue Wei, but he still wanted him to be safe . He was, after all, the flesh and blood of the woman he could never forget .
After having gotten permission, the group returned to the courtyard to pack up their things before they went to the military office .
The military office was the place where people were signing up in the army, and when their group arrived, they attracted a lot of attention .
Many were here to sign up for the army, but none of them were as high profile as Xue Wei and his friends .
