Chapter 261 Iwan and Jayna! (1)
"It won't work? Iwan, why won't it work? Iwan, you should know that no matter how strong the Heaven Domain is, it will have difficulty developing without the support of a large kingdom..." The Third Elder also frowned and persuaded Iwan.
The elders all agreed that the Heaven Domain would surely be on the threshold of more rapid development if it was conferred a title by the national fortune of the Dragon Kingdom, and it would probably become the world's top hegemonic force. But Iwan refused it!
At this moment, Iwan took a deep breath and shook his head. Looking at the Third Elder and Carl's worried faces, he said, "No, thank you for your kindness, but the Heaven Domain won't accept the conferment. Only when the Heaven Domain is not tied to the Dragon Kingdom can the Dragon Kingdom has the best benefit, right? You should know it..."
"Well..." After Iwan finished speaking, the Third Elder and Carl were stunned for a moment. Then they both became silent. Yes, Iwan was right. It would be more beneficial to the Dragon Kingdom if the Heaven Domain always maintained its independent status on the External Battlefield. After all, if the Heaven Domain maintained an independent status, it wouldn't be restricted and would have more freedom. Moreover, when the Dragon Kingdom encountered difficulties, the Heaven Domain could offer help at any time.
However, the elders thought that Iwan had done so much. How could they disappoint their hero?
"Iwan... We..." The Third Elder looked at Iwan with complicated emotions in his eyes.
Iwan shook his head and said with a smile, "It's all right, Third Elder. It's my own choice. Besides, I have a feeling that my cultivating way to the Real Emperor should not be tied to the Dragon Kingdom. If we're yoked, it is likely to cause trouble..."
Iwan frowned. What he said was true. When the Third Elder and Carl talked about the conferment just now, he felt very bad. The feeling in his heart vaguely told him that it was wrong to take advantage of the national fortune of the Dragon Kingdom. This method was effective indeed, but it was not suitable for the Heaven Domain...
"Does your cultivating way to the Real Emperor reject the national fortune of the Dragon Kingdom?" At this moment, Carl also frowned hard and asked Iwan. This was something he didn't expect. Moreover, Iwan's expression was very serious just now, and he didn't seem to be making an excuse to refuse them. What Iwan said should be true, and Iwan really had such a feeling in his heart.
Iwan nodded and said, "Yeah, how shall I put it? It's not incompatible, but it is not the most correct. Alright, Mr. Addison, I have made up my mind. That's it. Besides, the Heaven Domain is not too weak now. Even if the foreign forces want to attack the Heaven Domain again, ha-ha... it won't be so easy..."
Carl narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded hard. "Okay, don't worry, Iwan. If those gangsters dare to fight against the Heaven Domain, we will never sit and watch! Now there are nine King-level powerhouses in the Military Headquarters! The Senior Elder has the battle power of King level nine. With the sharp rise of the national fortune of the Dragon Kingdom, we're still making progress..."
The Third Elder also took a deep breath, nodded proudly, and said, "That's right. I feel that after some time, we will thoroughly digest the promotion brought by the national fortune of the Dragon Kingdom. The Senior Elder is likely to own the power of King level nine. Besides, the three of us are likely to reach King level eight! If something bad happens to the Heaven Domain, we will rush to the External Regions as soon as possible!"
The Third Elder paused and continued, "Moreover, even if those guardians of the rules dare to fight again, we are not afraid now! For example, the Senior Elder killed four guardians last time!"
Iwan nodded and said, "Yeah, I would like to appreciate your kindness, but let's talk about the conferment in the future. Now the Dragon Kingdom still has internal and external problems, and the situation is far from stable. Let's talk about it later... We still have a long way to go..."
The Third Elder and Carl opened their mouths and wanted to say something, but they looked at Iwan's smile and said nothing in the end.
They were once again shocked by Iwan's breadth of mind. The Heaven Domain wouldn't share the national fortune of the Dragon Kingdom. In other words, if Iwan didn't share the national fortune of the Dragon Kingdom, the Military Headquarters would only be stronger. Yes, this was the hidden result of Iwan's decision. All the elders of the Military Headquarters would enjoy the national fortune of the Dragon Kingdom.
"Iwan... Then, we'll go first. We have many things to deal with in the Military Headquarters..." The Third Elder looked at Iwan with complicated emotions in his eyes. A peerless hero who had done almost everything for the Dragon Kingdom had nothing to ask for in the end. If it was put in the ancient dynasty, Iwan was like a general who won a battle with all his effort but chose to leave silently when the whole country was celebrating...
"Okay, I will see you off..." Iwan said to the Third Elder and Carl with a smile. The Third Elder and Carl were escorted by Iwan and left the Miller family. Then they took the chariot to the Military Headquarters.
......
At the gate of the Miller family, Iwan silently watched the Third Elder and Carl leave. The Heaven Domain might lose a lot after he refused the title conferred by the Dragon Kingdom, but he could resist it.
War and Dark would leave the Heaven Domain in a short time. In the previous war, hundreds of soldiers were killed. The Heaven Domain suffered great losses, but Warrior No.1 and other warriors became Super Gods, and all the remaining soldiers became Gods of War because of the national fortune of the Dragon Kingdom.
That was to say, although Iwan lost one-fourth of the soldiers in the Heaven Domain, the overall strength of the Heaven Domain had improved a lot. In addition, Iwan had ordered Ivy to screen some powerhouses that met the concept of the Heaven Domain and recruit them to the Heaven Domain after she went back to the External Battlefield.
"Since I'm on the Above-emperor level, Ivy should be able to recruit many powerhouses to keep the Heaven Domain at full strength. Three thousand... warriors... Three thousand..." Iwan looked at the street view in the distance and muttered, feeling more solemn in his heart. The number of warriors in the Heaven Domain was exactly the same as the ones under Haig's command two thousand years ago. Was there any connection?
The next moment, Iwan smiled and looked behind him. He sensed that Jayna was coming.
Soon, Jayna walked to Iwan, stood side by side with him against the breeze, and looked at the street view ahead. "Honey, you refused the proposal of the Third Elder and Mr. Addison, didn't you?" At this moment, although Jayna was asking Iwan, her tone was in the affirmative.
Iwan smiled, nodded, and said, "Yes, Jayna, do you think I was wrong? If I accepted the conferment, your husband would probably become an unparalleled hero or the fifth elder of the Dragon Kingdom. Ha-ha..."
Jayna smiled and shook her head. She turned to look at Iwan affectionately and said, "Having you by my side is enough. I don't care whether you are from the Military Headquarters or the Heaven Domain..."
Jayna reached out to touch Iwan's cheek and said, "Honey, no matter who you are, you are the best... You are... the strongest hero in my heart..." Jayna's words and eyes were extremely sincere. Her eyes were full of affection as she looked at Iwan.
Iwan took Jayna's hand, took an affectionate look at her, and said, "Honey, why do I feel like you are different?"
"Ha-ha, because I died once." Jayna said with a smile.
"Huh? Died once? Jayna, you......" Iwan frowned and asked Jayna.
