Legendary Armament Canon

Chapter 253 The Imperial Cauldron, Side-by-Side King (1)

[Divine Artifact, Imperial Cauldron]

Zhou Shu only saw these few words. The Legendary Armament Canon seemed to struggle to write the following content, and even the content that had already appeared quickly disappeared.

The page went blank again.

Zhou Shu frowned slightly. This situation was similar to when he was in You Prefecture. That time, the contents of the Legendary Armament Canon flashed and disappeared.

It was as if the Legendary Armament Canon couldn’t withstand this content yet.

Ever since standard weapons appeared on the Legendary Armament Canon, there was no longer any pattern for when it added new weapons.

When Zhou Shu developed his own weapon, there would be an additional page in the Legendary Armament Canon. When he came into contact with a complete secret forging formula, there would also be an additional page in the Legendary Armament Canon.

Now, he had only come into contact with the existence of the imperial cauldron, and it almost appeared in the Legendary Armament Canon.

He still couldn’t understand the logic behind

it.

But this wasn’t important. The most important thing now was to help Xu Shi stabilize the collapse of the imperial cauldron in the Qin emperor’s body.

This imperial cauldron was a divine artifact above a heaven-grade weapon. With Zhou Shu’s current forging ability, he was powerless to repair it.

Fortunately, he only needed to help Xu Shi.

With a thought, Zhou Shu’s hands instantly turned into the color of flames.

He reached out and pressed his hand onto the Qin emperor’s chest. The Qin emperor’s body seemed to disappear. Zhou Shu felt as if he had touched the imperial cauldron.

The Iron Smelting Hands emitted a scorching heat while Zhou Shu’s fingers touched the crack.

Boom!

Xu Shi shouted and drove the Eight Quaint Fire Divine Art even more.

The Qin emperor let out a pained groan, and his face was pale. However, his eyes were wide open, and there was a hint of madness in them, but there was no lack of determination.

A strange feeling flashed through Zhou Shu’s heart. As his palm touched the crack in the cauldron, a strange force seemed to remain in the crack.

Threads condensed from flames stitched up the crack in the cauldron like a wound.

Zhou Shu drove the Iron Smelting Hands Technique and completed this step with Xu Shi’s guidance.

The Qin emperor’s body was trembling slightly, and a low roar came from his throat.

Even with the will of the Qin emperor, he couldn’t help reacting like this. One could imagine what kind of pain he was enduring.

Zhou Shu knew very well that if he wanted to kill the Qin emperor now, it would be a piece of cake.

It could even be said that he could easily destroy Great Qin.

As long as he shattered this cauldron, Great Qin would definitely collapse and become hell on earth.

How bold of Xu Shi to invite him to help.

He was placing the life and death of the Qin emperor and Great Qin in the hands of an outsider.

If Zhou Shu had any bad intentions, the fall of Great Qin would be imminent.

Zhou Shu pondered, but his movements were steady.

He had a grudge against Great Qin, but it was not to the point of destruction.

Taking advantage of others was not something a man should do.

While Zhou Shu and Xu Shi were working together to repair Great Qin’s imperial cauldron, figures kept landing around them.

They were the experts of Great Qin.

They surrounded the three of them. Everyone held their breaths and focused. They didn’t dare to make a sound, afraid that they would disturb the three of them.

Rumble!

There were still thunderous sounds under the earth, but the shaking gradually slowed.

After what seemed like an eternity, the thunderous sound finally faded.

A dazzling light suddenly erupted from the Qin emperor’s body.

Rays of light seeped into the ground, forming an indescribable net that enveloped the territory of Great Qin.

After a long time, the light on the Qin emperor’s body gradually faded.

He looked like his normal self again. Except for his slightly pale face, he looked just like he always did.

“Your Majesty,” the surrounding experts said in unison.

The Qin emperor waved his hand to dismiss him.

His gaze wasn’t on these people but on Zhou Shu, who was not far away.

Zhou Shu saw the Qin emperor’s gaze and revealed a self-deprecating expression.

“Do you want to continue fighting?” Zhou Shu said.

He had heard a lot about kicking someone to the curb when they’d outlived their usefulness.

Now that so many of Great Qin’s experts had gathered, it seemed that a fierce battle was inevitable.

But he wasn’t afraid. With his perfected Golden Bell Shield Technique, even if he couldn’t defeat these people, it wouldn’t be easy for them to kill him.

Unless they all had the peak combat strength that the Qin emperor had erupted with previously, it would be difficult for their attacks to break through his Golden Bell Shield!

The Qin emperor didn’t speak or attack. He stared straight at Zhou Shu.

The atmosphere became a little oppressive, and everyone’s breathing seemed to have disappeared.

Some were secretly accumulating strength. Once the Qin emperor gave the order, they would attack Zhou Shu.

Some were conflicted. They didn’t know if they should attack. Wang Mu was one of them.

There were also some who were already prepared to dissuade the Qin emperor. One was Xu Shi.

After a moment, the Qin emperor said slowly, “There’s no need to fight anymore.

“Even if you and I continue to fight, nothing will come of it but mutual destruction.”

The Qin emperor’s words caused a storm in everyone’s hearts.

They knew the strength of the Qin emperor. Although they were all first-rank martial artists, the Qin emperor’s strength far exceeded that of ordinary first-rank martial artists.

It was not an exaggeration to say that the Qin emperor alone was stronger than two or three ordinary first-rank martial artists.

By saying this, he was admitting that Zhou Shu’s strength was comparable to his.

In other words, this young You Marquis of Great Xia was one of the strongest existences in this world?

In this world, it was still uncertain if there was anyone stronger than the Qin emperor!

In this world, there had always been rumors that the Qin emperor was the number one expert in the world.

“I wouldn’t be so sure of that. You’ve still got so many people here. Give it a try. Maybe you can kill me,” Zhou Shu said.

“Hmph, you’re underestimating me too much.” The Qin emperor snorted. “Even if I want to kill you, I will kill you openly. How can I bully you with numbers?”

“Is that so?” Zhou Shu sneered. “You can even send people to ambush my Great Xia diplomatic mission. This is no big deal.”

A trace of anger flashed across the Qin emperor’s face.

But he quickly suppressed his anger. With a dark expression, he said, “Since you’ve just helped me, I won’t hold it against you this time.

“You contributed greatly to helping me today – 11

“I didn’t do it to help you. You don’t have to feel you owe me anything,” Zhou Shu interrupted the Qin emperor.

“I’m here to seek justice for my brothers of the Great Xia diplomatic mission who died in vain. You and I are enemies, not friends. This matter is not over!”

“I owe you an explanation for the casualties of the Great Xia diplomatic mission,” the Qin emperor said coldly. “I have never owed anyone anything in my life.

“The same goes for you too!”

The Qin emperor raised his voice and declared, “From today onward, Zhou Shu will be Great Qin’s side-by-side king. When you see him, it will be like you see me!”

The voice of the Qin emperor came from afar, and all the experts present heard it clearly.

Everyone’s expressions became extremely complicated. Surprise and relief flashed across their eyes.

At this moment, everyone present was a first-rank martial artist and the higher-ups of Great Qin. They knew the inside story.

If not for Zhou Shu’s help just now, the imperial cauldron in the Qin emperor’s body would have collapsed. If the imperial cauldron collapsed, Great Qin would have collapsed.

He had basically saved Great Qin.

Although the Qin emperor’s bestowment was a little excessive, it was understandable.

Although the Qin emperor’s situation just now was related to his battle with Zhou Shu, even without this, the imperial cauldron wouldn’t have lasted long.

Zhou Shu’s help now was to continue the legacy of Great Qin. With such a great contribution, it wasn’t too much of a reward.

“Long live Your Majesty. Long live Your Highness!”

Everyone cupped their hands and bowed while chanting in unison.
