But he still led his daughter Joanna to his office.
After entering the office, Joanna told everything that happened after seeing Lin Yi and Lin Yi's admonition to her.
After listening, the expression on Ron's face also became horrified.
Although Lin Yi is just a simple statement, the meaning contained in it is self-evident.
Neither Joanna nor Ron are fools.
They understood it instantly.
After all, don't look at the fact that the Yuanyuexiang Chamber of Commerce maintained a trade relationship with Lin Yi's forces before, but fundamentally, they are still 'hostile relations'.
Of course, the Full Moon Fragrance Chamber of Commerce is definitely not Lin Yi's enemy.
They don't have this qualification either.
Lin Yi's enemy is the Radiant Empire behind the Yuanyuexiang Chamber of Commerce.
The 'war' in Joanna's mouth also means that Lin Yi's castle forces are about to start a war with the Radiance Empire, and the first target of the Holy Empire's attack is most likely [Palenque City].
Because [Palenque City] is the closest city in the Radiance Empire to the Holy Empire.
As long as it can be captured.
The army of the Holy Empire can attack the territory of the Radiant Empire.
Ron sucked in his air and said, "Joanna, my baby girl, this is no joke!"
Joanna said: "Father, I'm not joking, this is His Majesty Lin Yi's original words! In terms of the previous transaction, His Majesty Lin Yi warned us to withdraw from Palenque City in the near future, or even withdraw from the Radiant Empire. ."
Ron said in disbelief: "Why is the war going to start so soon? Is your Majesty the king confident to fight against the army of my empire now?"
"should be!"
"After all, the castle forces are developing very fast!"
"Especially the Holy Empire of His Majesty Lin Yi!"
Joanna said: "Father, you can't imagine that in less than a week, the strength of that king has surpassed the realm of the median god!"
"As I presume..."
"He may even have the status of a higher god!"
"how is this possible?!"
Ron exclaimed.
Joanna said, "It's true, my lord! The divine power I sensed in that king's majesty is many times stronger than that of Dean Geoffrey of Imperial College!"
"It's incredible!"
Ron slumped back in his chair with a sullen expression.
His eyes were full of envy.
He has practiced for hundreds of years and is currently only in the realm of a demigod.
And that His Majesty King 417, who has only been in the Endless Continent for just over a month, has been promoted from a mortal to the level of a higher god.
The speed was so shocking that he couldn't say a word.
Nothing but envy, just envy.
He even had an urge to turn to the castle forces.
...
until a long time passed.
Ron raised his eyelids, looked at Joanna, and asked, "Joanna, you are my smartest daughter! Do you think that His Majesty the King can defeat our Radiant Empire?"
"It should be impossible!"
In Joanna's view, the Radiance Empire, as one of the powerful empires in the central region, has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, has a terrifying imperial army, and has a large number of gods.
Holy Empire, a new imperial power.
How can it be the opponent of Radiance Empire?
"but……"
"But what?"
Ron asked immediately.
Joanna said: "Father, even if the Holy Empire cannot defeat our Radiant Empire, there is absolutely no problem in capturing Palenque City!"
"No surprises."
"The city of Palenque will surely fall in the war!"
"Makes sense!"
Ron nodded and said, "What do you think we should do?"
Joanna said: "According to His Majesty the King, our Chamber of Commerce will evacuate Palenque City as quickly as possible and head to the Imperial Capital!"
"if……"
"If the Holy Empire is really strong enough to defeat the army of our empire, then our Chamber of Commerce will continue to retreat until it is far away from the Radiant Empire!"
In an empire-level war, these small chambers of commerce are powerless.
The only way is to escape!
You can survive by fleeing to areas outside the war.
If they are caught in the battlefield, then their fate is difficult to say.
Ron said: "Joanna, my daughter, don't you think we should report this news to the Empire? If the Empire can send a large army to defend Palenque City, we don't have to evacuate!"
"After all, you know what it means to evacuate."
"We will lose a great fortune!"
"Father!"
Joanna said: "Since His Majesty the King told us this news, it shows that he is confident to capture Palenque City and doesn't care whether we will reveal his war intentions."
"not to mention……"
"The army in Palenque has been frequently mobilized recently."
"There are also many unfamiliar faces appearing in the city."
"This shows that the upper echelons of the empire have already foreseen the coming of war!"
"So, it doesn't matter if we don't report it!"
"the most important is……"
Joanna said to her father Ron: "If we report this news, then how do we explain our source to the upper echelons of the empire? Are we a trading partner with the Holy Empire?"
"You're right, it really can't be reported!"
Father Ron agreed.
Once the high-level officials of the empire found out about the transaction between the Yuanyuexiang Merchant Guild and the Holy Empire, taking a layer of their skin would be considered lenient.
Joanna said: "Father, don't hesitate any longer! We should prepare for evacuation as soon as possible, recover the funds of the Chamber of Commerce, and sell all real estate..."
"I see!"
Ron nodded.
As an old businessman who established the Yuanyuexiang Chamber of Commerce, he naturally knows how to use power over the pros and cons.
So soon, he sent his men out to inquire about the news.
After summarizing all the news...
He came to a conclusion that war is really coming!
Not only the Holy Empire has already made preparations for war, but their Radiant Empire is also urgently preparing for war, because a large number of strange powerhouses have gathered in the city.
"withdraw!"
Ron immediately called the top of the Chamber of Commerce.
Started a big sale of Chamber of Commerce assets.
Just for the return of funds, leave this place of right and wrong.
Joanna is also packing her things. Only when she is alone, she sometimes whispers to herself, "I don't know if there will be a chance to see the king again in the future!"
"Hopefully, there will be such a day in the future!"
She admires His Majesty Lin Yi very much.
After all, the noble youths of the Shining Empire are not even one ten thousandth of Lin Yi's.
...
Holy Empire.
Lin Yigang sent Joanna and her party away.
I sensed a change in the space teleportation array on the Imperial Capital Square.
Soon, two figures walked out of the teleportation array.
It was after receiving his order that the Angel of Creation, Tisia, and the Angel of Destiny, Claire, returned from the Val'kyr Continent to the Holy Empire.
"Almighty Lord~"
The two beautiful angels sensed the breath of Lin Yi.
Come see me first.
Lin Yi nodded slightly and asked, "How's the raid in another world going?"
Angel of Destiny Claire respectfully said: "Reporting to my lord, under the leadership of the sixteen-winged seraph Archangel Candice, the imperial army has cleared a large area of the fourth floor underground space and killed hundreds of demonized creatures. 100 million!"
"If nothing else happens..."
"In two more hours, the imperial army can end the eradication of demonized creatures!"
There are far more than 10 billion demonized creatures in the fourth floor underground space.
But don't forget.
In addition to Lin Yi's imperial army, there are also trillions of castle legions in the fourth floor underground space to clear the demonized creatures.
Under the efforts of the entire castle forces.
The number of demonized creatures on the fourth floor is plummeting.
It will soon become 'residual'.
It would be meaningless for the imperial army to continue to leave the fourth floor underground space.
You can move to the third floor underground space.
Fight the demons out there!
"Tens of billions of demonized monsters!"
"The record is not bad!"
Lin Yi expressed satisfaction.
The only dissatisfaction is that, after slaying tens of billions of demonized monsters, he has also gained a lot of 'experience', but so far there is still no sign of breaking through to the level of the main god.
This can only illustrate one point.
The ranks of those demonized monsters are still too low for him.
If he killed tens of billions of demons, he should have broken through and been promoted to the realm of the Lord God.
Fortunately, in the third floor underground space, some demons let his imperial army kill them.
No more.
In the second floor underground space, there are also two demon master-level demons, as well as a large number of pure-blooded high-level demons.
After killing them, Lin Yi can always be promoted to the main god.
