My bathroom connects to another world

Sometimes even though both sides know the final result, negotiations and disputes still have to occur.

There's no choice; if one side doesn't compete, the other often gains an inch. Only when both sides clarify their stances can the initially desired outcome be truly achieved, at least not far off the mark.

Just like now, because of the Xuanwu Empire's bargaining, the other side started to gradually relax their conditions.

At the beginning of the negotiations, Zhao Guang never imagined the other side would make such outrageous demands, directly asking for all three demigods to be on standby. Did they really think he was their subordinate? Although they also did not expect to succeed with such demands.

However, the current situation isn't favorable, so no one spent much time on these matters.

Just a few days later, Zhao Guang's side was the first to send a part of the nest spiders over.

These inferior nest spiders were enhanced by Zhao Guang's magic patterns, and although their strength couldn't be fully utilized, there were no problems with the small spiders. Thus, they served most of their purpose effectively.

Especially in cleaning up various corpses on the battlefield, they can even devour the undead, which is very useful.

A few days later, Zhao Guang's clone finally joined the battlefield.

Indeed, the other side didn't know it was a clone and was somewhat puzzled why those two women didn't come over, but instead, the King himself appeared. Initially, there were suspicions about whether it was a body double or something similar.

But after Zhao Guang fought on the battlefield once, the other side didn't think so anymore.

Even as a clone, its strength was not much less than Zhao Guang's true form.

The only difference was that it recovered slightly slower, but it had a considerable amount of divine power. Even without relying on the Power of Faith for accumulation, its power was enough for several battles.

In the first battle, Zhao Guang's clone encountered an undead demigod.

Zhao Guang made his move using direct methods, igniting golden-red flames on the battlefield.

The Phoenix Immortal True Flame combined with the Holy Fire was a natural bane for undead beings. The intense purifying power, coupled with the terrifying burning effect, produced a stronger effect than other demigods.

Originally, they planned for Zhao Guang to hold that person back, but he instead severely injured him on the spot.

If it hadn't been for the lack of an initial plan, they might have managed to keep that guy.

But after this battle, the other side realized a very formidable opponent had appeared here, so they became more cautious.

Though they kept fighting since then, the same opportunities never arose. However, even so, Zhao Guang's reputation on the battlefield gradually spread, and no one dared to underestimate him.

Some people realized Zhao Guang often appeared within his own territory, but no one cared.

After all, he was skilled in Space Magic and could even create long-distance Space Gates.

So, frequent returns didn't matter; besides, they all knew about Zhao Guang's Clone Magic. Yet, a clone is a clone; it's not very powerful, but it's easy to perform some tasks.

Therefore, people believed that the one in the territory was the clone, while the one on the battlefield was the real one.

At this juncture, demands on the Xuanwu Empire finally ceased.

Even a non-Borick Continent force could present a powerful demigod; continuing to demand would be inappropriate. After all, even within their forces, many hadn't presented demigods.

Some truly didn't have one, while others had different reasons.

Especially now, the behavior of the Lusis Empire was somewhat disappointing.

The Lusis Empire used its connections to have domestic and familiar demigods appear.

However, after one battle, a demigod they invited got injured and left without hesitation. Even though the Lusis Empire paid a huge price, the demigod still didn't intend to stay.

Due to this incident, others invited started leaving one after another.

Subsequently, the demigod within their realm began relocating their family's descendants.

The Lusis King had prepared for this, but it was of no use. Unless they had an equally powerful challenger to restrain him, they could only watch as demigods did what they wanted.

Under these circumstances, the Lusis Empire lost its ability to influence others.

When the Lusis King read these reports, his face immediately turned extremely unsightly. He never expected that his originally well-laid plans would encounter such various issues.

"These damn bastards, the Empire raised them, and now they all leave one by one at this moment."

"Your Majesty, please mind your words, demigods are not entities the Empire could raise."

A noble interjected quickly, some things were not meant to be said, besides, didn't the Empire leverage their reputation for development?

To be honest, if it weren't for that demigod's strength, the Empire's territory would be a third smaller than it is now.

To say who owes who, sometimes it's not that clear-cut at all.

Given the Empire's condition now, expecting a demigod to risk themselves for mere mortals is unrealistic.

"Damn it, damn it, none of them obey orders, all of them defy royal authority."

The others remained silent with their heads lowered. Although the officials within the Empire were all very stubborn, there were some with brains. Given the situation now, many could understand certain things.

The King, who originally seemed fine, was unexpectedly so disappointing in such circumstances.

Indeed, it's only during a true crisis that one's true capabilities are revealed.

But none of them dared to speak out, not in these circumstances, as the King in a frenzy could do anything. Even if he eliminated some of them, they could only blame their misfortune.

As long as they remained silent, the King had no reason to target them.

Even though they didn't speak, they were already surreptitiously relocating their families and wealth. Fearing the King's hindrance, they did it in secret, jointly keeping it under wraps.

Not just them, even people within the Royal Family were doing the same.

The two Princes were no longer vying for the throne but were instead tacitly relocating, given their innate abilities. Even if the country perished, they could make a comeback.

But if they expended all their resources here, they would end up with nothing.
