章 2496: Abdication (4)

Shen Yanxiao's words stunned Long Yue in place. He was smart, but he could not guess Shen Yanxiao's current thoughts.

Even though the Longxuan Empire was gradually declining, it still possessed a vast territory. Even though Shen Yanxiao was very powerful right now, it was very difficult to occupy any country at this stage. Right now, Long Yue gave Shen Yanxiao such an opportunity to take down the Longxuan Empire without expending a single soldier.

But she refused…

Why?

"Long Yue." Shen Yanxiao looked at the puzzled Long Yue with a smile on her lips.

"Yes."

"I know what you're worried about. I can tell you now that you don't have to worry. I reject your proposal and I will use another method to reassure you. However, I have one more request." Shen Yanxiao said.

"Please speak." Long Yue looked at Shen Yanxiao in confusion. He honestly did not know what was going through Shen Yanxiao's mind.
