Chapter 681 - Having a Firm Hold Over The Emperor (4)
“Perhaps you're thinking that I think things too simply. But in fact, that so-called army to suppress me is just useless in my eyes. I don't believe that after I have had enough strength to contend with the Long Xuan Empire's army, the Emperor will still dare to face against me. My strength is not enough now, so I have to rely on external forces. But once I get stronger, anyone must weigh and measure their strength first before making a move against me."
“It's the same when I first came to the Barren Land and saw the Lan Yue Dynasty plundering resources in the eastern region which belongs to the Long Xuan Empire. They were not a bit humble about their actions; instead, they appeared as though it's just natural for them to do that. Because here in the Barren Land, Long Xuan Empire is a weak existence. Looking at the state of the current Radiance Continent, the Long Xuan Empire has gradually entered the path of the weak. And as for the matter of being oppressed in the Barren Land, I believe that the Emperor is very clear about it. The reason he tolerated the fact that the other three countries are continuously plundering our own resources was that the current Long Xuan Empire has no strength against the other three countries."
"Before the strong, the weak have no rights. Therefore, I will build my own forces and make them constantly stronger. So even if I locked the Prince up and threatened the State Preceptor, the Emperor will still not dare to shed all pretense of cordiality with me. On the contrary, he might even try to win me over at all costs.” Shen Yanxiao’s mouth bloomed a confident smile. She knew clearly that if she wanted to stand at the top of the world, she must have enough strength, and she must step on people in order to climb over to the top.
The five animals were surprised to hear Shen Yanxiao's words. They finally realized that Shen Yanxiao was not lacking in consideration but that she had considered far more than they could think of.
In this petite body, what formidable power was there to make her possess this kind of unprecedented idea?
Based on the state of the four countries in the Barren Land, she had directly analyzed the style of conduct of Long Xuan Empire's Emperor. Moreover, she also had absolute confidence that in the future, she could reverse heaven and earth.
This kind of boldness made them ashamed of being inferior as men.
"You... really made me pleasantly surprised. No matter what plan you have in the future, I will support you as a comrade." Yang Xi restrained his inner shock and spoke sincerely.
"No matter what kind of difficulties you face in the future, we, the members of Phantom will never leave you alone. Just do whatever you want." Yan Yu replied with a smile. His previous worry, after hearing Shen Yanxiao’s words, had vanished into thin air.
Even a young woman could say such eloquent words. How could these men let themselves lose face?
"Little Xiao, I've been thinking, if you had been a man, I'm afraid that you would tread the land of this whole world under your foot. If you are a man, this Radiance Continent will probably usher in a formidable person once again." Qi Xia had to sigh at the courage and wisdom of Shen Yanxiao. Her vision was very far, her thoughts were very far, and she was brimming with confidence. Such confidence would give people unlimited potential.
If one did not even believe in himself, then it would be hard for him to achieve something in this life.
"What about a man? What about a woman? Am I not capable of doing what a man can do? It's not that I can't, but I don't want to. I'm not interested in this world. I just don't want anyone making indiscreet remarks or criticisms in front of me. I just want to live freely." Shen Yanxiao laughed softly. She never felt that women were weaker than men.
