Chapter 211 Negotiated Matters
"It's just right. Since General Fubo mentioned the Chiming Clan, I'd also like to mention that the position of Chiming Dragon Lord of the Penglai Immortal Boat will be handed directly to Mingxi. Do you all have any objections?"
Xuanquan nodded at first. She had a lot of say in this matter. "Of course not. Mingxi is a good choice to serve as Penglai's Chiming Dragon Lord. When Mingxi comes of age, the title of Dragon Lord can be decided by us, or by Luqing herself."
Since Xuan Quan has spoken, the other heavenly generals will not express too many opinions on this matter.
The issue of the Vajra Dragon Lord did not attract much discussion. People were more concerned about the position of the Penglai Heavenly General.
Jing Yuan had explained to the other heavenly generals what happened on the day when Emperor Gong Siming left the light arrow. In short, Lu Qing had been glanced at by several star gods, including Emperor Gong Siming, and Lu Qing had received the blessing of the Hunting Envoy from Emperor Gong Siming... in the form of a light arrow.
When the heavenly generals learned the news, they were shocked for a long time, including the marshal. However, Emperor Gong Siming must have his reasons for doing this. As believers of Emperor Gong Siming, they only need to choose to believe it.
Since Emperor Gong Siming chose to give the light arrow to Lu Qing, then Lu Qing naturally has the power to decide where the light arrow goes.
And when Jing Yuan said that Lu Qing had melted it into a ring, and that as long as they wore the ring and gained his approval, they could become hunting envoys, the expressions of the heavenly generals changed again.
Given the current state of the Alliance, if Lu Qing obtained a ring imbued with the power of the Hunting Envoy, wouldn't that mean the Alliance had gained a new Heavenly General? The Alliance's strength could be taken to the next level, but this "Heavenly General" might not be under the Marshal's control... Emperor Bow Eight Heavenly Generals? That doesn't sound very nice...
It is not difficult to understand that there will be eight people in seven days, and the names do not need to be changed.
"I believe you all understand the inheritance of the position of Penglai Immortal Boat's Commander. As for the position of Penglai Immortal Boat's Heavenly General, that will be chosen by the ring transformed from the Light Arrow. I believe nothing is more convincing than the choice of the Hunting Fate itself... Of course, although I have the ability to force appointments, I won't use it unless absolutely necessary."
The heavenly generals also agreed with Lu Qing's statement. This approval was only based on their trust in Lu Qing and there was no effective contract to guarantee it. The final right of interpretation naturally belonged to Lu Qing.
Lanqing said that the ring chose its own owner, so that means the ring chose its own owner, and they have no way to verify it... But it doesn't matter, Penglai was created by Lanqing anyway, and without Lanqing, Penglai would not appear.
Saying something like this might hurt Lu Qing's trust in the alliance, so it would be better to say nothing and let him make the decision.
"The construction of the Penglai Immortal Boat is progressing very quickly. According to General Huai Yan's design, the Penglai Immortal Boat can sail unmanned for quite a long time, so there is no need to rush into the relevant immigration policies. Everything is based on the wishes of the people aboard the boat themselves.
In addition, the company has put a lot of effort into the construction of Penglai. Their efforts will naturally be rewarded accordingly. By then, there may be a considerable number of foreigners on the Penglai Fairy Boat.
But don't worry too much. I won't let the number of barbarians exceed 30% of Penglai's total population. However, the choice of the Heavenly General will be made by the ring itself, so the barbarians also have the possibility of becoming Heavenly Generals.
But you can rest assured, there are no miracles of abundance on the Penglai Immortal Boat. This fundamentally eliminates the possibility of outsiders greedily seeking immortality. If I had to say, I might be Penglai's greatest miracle of abundance."
"In addition, the hub construction on Penglai will also be carried out simultaneously, and will be handled by the Interstellar Peace Company's engineering team. After the hub construction is completed, Penglai will also connect to Luofu through a channel like the other immortal ships."
The immortal ship itself is willing to accept outsiders. It is not a big deal to have more outsiders on the Penglai immortal ship. What the heavenly generals care about is that letting outsiders serve as heavenly generals may be a big problem.
The people of Xianzhou are very lenient in choosing Heavenly Generals. People from the Chiming tribe, the celestial beings on Xianzhou, the fox people, and some ethnic minorities on Xianzhou are all allowed to choose one, but there is no precedent for outsiders to serve as Heavenly Generals.
At least you need a long life, right?
The concepts of the short-lived and long-lived species are different. The difference in life philosophy can cause great problems. Moreover, the short-lived species may not have completely mastered power at their age and need to retire... The position of Hunting Envoy does not have the ability to prolong life.
"I have also thought about what you are worried about, but in my opinion, there will be no problem at all in Penglai.
Even if Penglai joined the Immortal Ship Alliance under the name of an Immortal Ship, it was fundamentally different from the other Immortal Ships, and it could not be truly accepted by all the Immortal Ship people...
Moreover, under the premise that the ring guarantees the loyalty of the general to the alliance, the most important ability and the first responsibility of a general is to be a spearhead and tear through the enemy's defenses, rather than the ability to handle internal affairs.
Even if the general is sidelined by his subordinates, it will not hinder the normal operation of the immortal boat."
"Penglai is ultimately an outsider, a newly joined member. As long as this member doesn't fall into the arms of destruction or abundance and become an enemy, even if he is lost in a star system somewhere in the universe, he won't cause too much damage to the alliance..."
Hua: "Lingqing, once you join the alliance, all members of the alliance will be treated equally by Xianzhou. You, and Penglai as well, provide benefits to the alliance and accept the alliance's constraints. You are the alliance's eternal allies. Before you take the initiative to betray, all members of the alliance will help each other at all costs."
The marshal saw through Lan Qing's temptation, and in order to reassure Lan Qing, he once again emphasized the importance of the alliance contract.
"I understand, Marshal. I'm only stating the worst-case scenario... To be honest, the construction of Penglai was a whim of my own. I don't intend to invest too much emotion in it. Whether Penglai perishes during future voyages, I won't have any particular feelings about it..."
The Marshal understood that after saying so much, Qing Qing wanted to be a hands-off boss again... It was the same with the Buli Empire last time. It was established after a while, but in the end, the Xianzhou Alliance still selected some people to help manage it.
"Just like the Buli Empire, your orders are above all else in Penglai. However, without your orders, Penglai will remain autonomous while still under the control of the Alliance. However, if Penglai, for some irresistible reason, betrays the alliance by embracing the bountiful embrace or fully joining the company, you will be held accountable and must clean up the mess."
"I understand. Thank you, Marshal."
