Chapter 7119
Victoria knew very well that the Wu family members all had their own selfish motives.
The Wu family was divided into five branches,
Each was in charge of one of the Five Military Commands—a structure Victoria herself had established.
This was like five feudal lords.
Although all were subjects of the emperor,
They certainly wouldn’t place the emperor’s orders above their own personal interests.
Therefore, the Five Military Commands might not truly be searching for Maria with all their might.
For the Five Military Commands,
They genuinely didn’t care much about Maria’s whereabouts or whether she was alive or dead.
Despite being Victoria’s descendants and relying on her for everything,
They knew very well that their current good life was built on the foundation of the Five Military Commands.
As long as the Five Military Commands existed,
Even if Victoria died, the Wu family could still live a life of luxury.
In comparison, Victoria’s life posed a greater threat to the Wu family,
Because she acted without regard for cost or consequences,
And the Wu family could easily be swayed by her will.
Maria’s concern was for Victoria’s life or death,
But if Victoria died, it wouldn’t necessarily be a bad thing for the Wu family.
If there were no emperor above the Five Military Commands,
Then each of the Grand Commanders of the Five Military Commands would be an emperor.
Victoria understood this principle as well.
Didn’t the Wu family care so much about her life or death?
Fine, then let these family heads taste what it’s like to live forever.
Revender also knew Victoria’s intention, so he respectfully said,
“This subordinate will convey the Emperor’s edict to the five Grand Commanders.”
Victoria frowned slightly and said,
“Notify the three elders that I have something to instruct them about.”
Revender was surprised, but dared not ask any questions,
And immediately said respectfully,
“Your Majesty, please wait a moment.”
“This subordinate will go and inform the three elders.”
More than ten minutes later, three elderly men, nearly two hundred years old,
Arrived together outside Victoria’s palace.
The head elder, Brovnen Wu, respectfully said,
“Your Majesty, your subordinates Bolin, Bowen, and Buzzner request an audience.”
“Come in,”
Victoria said calmly.
The three Wu immediately pushed open the door and entered,
Approaching Victoria with unhurried steps, bowing respectfully,
“Greetings, Your Majesty!”
Victoria nodded slightly and said,
“I summoned the three elders here today because there are a few matters I wish to discuss with you.”
Brovnen immediately replied respectfully,
“Your Majesty, please give your orders!”
Victoria glanced at the three in turn and said,
“I have already had Revendor issue the order.”
“Whoever captures Maria in the entire Warriors Den will be rewarded with countless gold and silver.”
“And their entire family will be granted a hundred years of lifespan.”
“However, given your current strength, unless you find the Eternal Green Pill or help you open your Niwan Palace,”
“I am unable to grant you a hundred years of lifespan.”
“Therefore, you three elders need not trouble yourselves with this matter.”
The three exchanged glances, unsure of Victoria’s meaning.
If she didn’t want them to worry about it,
Then why had she summoned them to discuss these matters in the first place?
Moreover, when it came to opening their Niwan Palaces,
The three of them harbored some resentment.
After all, they had been in seclusion for a century,
And if they had just gritted their teeth and persevered for another ten years or so,
They might have opened their Niwan Palaces one after another.
Once their Niwan Palaces were opened,
Their lifespans would exceed two hundred years, or even more than two hundred years.
But all of this was interrupted by Victoria.
Once that momentum was broken,
It wouldn’t be a matter of ten years or so to catch up,
Wasting another ten or twenty years would be commonplace.
