Factionalism

Lin Miao quickly reached a consensus with Su Liu. When he and the king left the conference hall, Lin Miao claimed the remnants of "Dawn of Tomorrow".

The second camp is the rebel camp headed by Lin Su.

To deal with Lin Su, Su Liu only used one move, "This world does not need a king, nor does it need vampires. In two months, I will abdicate and reform the feudal system into a provincial and county system."

Lin Su's subordinates were talking about it.

The last time Su Liu heard them scolding him, he knew that these people were just as the original book said, all of them were hypocritical, nepotistic, and had an "I am the most authentic and moral" attitude.

Su Liu patiently listened to their argument for half an hour. Seeing the situation getting increasingly out of control, he interrupted, "I'm willing to sacrifice myself for the greater good. Is it that all you care about is power? Is it that the position I gave you isn't high enough, and that you can't see far enough from where you sit? You keep saying 'great justice,' but when it comes time to sacrifice, why do you change your face?"

Perhaps it was because Lin Su had never exposed their hypocritical masks like this before, and these people immediately lowered their heads in anger and shame.

The thing that makes hypocritical people more valuable than real villains is that they know what they are doing is wrong, and they understand shame and reflection.

"Lin Su, you are most familiar with these people. I see that there are many capable people among them. I will allocate a city to you and you can arrange the positions." Su Liu waved his hand to let them go.

Lin Su remained silent throughout the entire process, but now she declined, saying, "I'm afraid I'm not up to the task."

"You can't do it? Did you have selfish motives in leading humanity to victory? Lin Su, I gave you the highest authority. If you don't do well, it means that you, the core figure, are not worthy of being followed, and the resistance army is just a mob. Are you going to admit defeat to me on behalf of the resistance army?" Su Liu said.

Lin Su clenched his fist and took a deep breath, "I will prove it to you."

"You need to prove it to your people, not to me. If the city where the rebels are stationed is filthy and in a mess, your 'justice' will be written into history and be cursed by future generations." Su Liu increased her intensity again.

As soon as these words were spoken.

Lin Su and the people behind her all changed their expressions.

So much so that their departing figures also looked desolate.

The third camp is the human dignitaries headed by "Lin Pei Gu Lu".

Su Liu did not treat them as he would have done without them.

"I hope that every year you will send a young man between sixteen and twenty to join Spark City, forming a special group. Their main task will be to tour the country and supervise all officials."

The four major families discussed it for half a cup of tea, but couldn't come to a conclusion, so they agreed to it.

They may not understand the power of this move at the moment, but Su Liu believes that in the near future, this group of young people from noble backgrounds will make the world remember what the strongest inspector is.

The fourth camp is the blood clan nobles headed by Pei Yunxiu.

Pei Yunxiu was indeed a vampire with many friends, just as he said.

At this moment, behind him were almost eighty percent of the vampire nobles, and the desire to retire was written on each of their faces.

Obviously, they are fed up with being vampires. Even though they know that vampire Omegas evolved from humans, they have lost interest in cultivating relationships with humans.

They just want to quickly become human, enjoy a hundred years of lying down like a human, and finally return to dust.

"I promise you that I will give you a hundred years of happiness and peace without war," Su Liu said.

A few brave vampires suddenly blushed and asked, "Are you really unwilling to accept us?"

"?" Su Liu didn't react for a moment.

Pei Yunxiu took the opportunity to move next to Su Liu and explained in a low voice, "This is exactly why I convinced them. Since they are unwilling to endure tens of thousands of years of pain and watch other vampires show their affection, they might as well become humans. If they are lucky, they can find true love, which is worse than coveting a vampire O who doesn't love them."

“…” So this is how those “retirement-seeking” looks come from?

Su Liu asked curiously, "Why are they so easy to talk to? They didn't even fight for it and just voluntarily withdrew? I think some of them seem pretty... Such pretty faces, if they get old... it would be a pity."

"...You are not allowed to look," Pei Yunxiu gritted his teeth in anger.

Qi Fengling spoke at the right time, "My father has a set of rules when selecting humans. If one's mind is not pure, the probability of becoming a pure-blooded vampire is extremely low."

In other words, most pure-blooded vampires are good people with noble destinies and good character.

I see.

No wonder... Dai Ning said that.

Su Liu sighed.

"I need your help in maintaining order. There must be some stubborn vampires who refuse to cooperate and want to take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble. At this time..."

Su Liu analyzed the interests involved in detail, and these vampires immediately promised to cooperate.

After these vampires left, Pei Yunxiu stayed.

At this time, it was almost dawn.

Su Liu called back the core members of Spark City.

Only now did he speak to his family behind closed doors.

"...No matter what happens in the future, you must not panic. What I do must have my purpose. Next, I hope you will select a few central figures to represent Spark City and coordinate management with other camps. In addition, I will set up a special department, which will be composed of young people from the five camps. I will also select suitable talents from the cultural and sports competitions in Nancheng to fill the department and exercise justice beyond the rules." As Su Liu was speaking, Cuicui jumped onto his shoulder and used her little claws to reach Su Liu's crown.

Lian Gufeng shouted in a panic: "Come back, stop making trouble."

Su Liu smiled and said to Cuicui, "You can touch it, but I can't let you wear it."

Cuicui's baby voice was sweet and tender, "Su Liu, can you make me a smaller one? I like it so much, it's so majestic."

"Okay, I'll go to Lin Zhen and make one for you. The material of this one is too heavy for your little head," Su Liu held its raised paw.

"I want one too," the little chinchilla jumped out of Su Tao's arms and rarely acted coquettishly in that low voice.

"...Okay," Su Liu was a little uncomfortable.

Afterwards, the cat and the mouse stayed together for a while, and were soon taken away by Lian Gufeng and Su Tao.

Su Liu called Xun Ruozhang over and asked, "What do you think about this incident?"

"...Maybe it's because things didn't go well for me in the past, and I always wanted to prove myself, so now I can't even listen to objective suggestions. This is my fault." Xun Ruozhang obviously reflected seriously on what happened before.

"That's why I want to add a person to your team who, in your opinion, is very discordant," Su Liu looked at Li An, who was standing in the corner with only Du Sha and Cheng Qin beside him.

“……,” Xun Ruozhang lowered his head.

"Your persistence is both your strength and your weakness. I brought him in because your team is very mature, but the only flaw is your excessive persistence and strong drive. But you must believe that I have no intention of undermining or balancing you."

Su Liu stared at Xun Ruozhang as she spoke. Seeing the look of shame on his face after sudden realization, she continued, "Another point. Sometimes you're too aggressive and always want to protect the weak. For example, this time, you placed Luyao, Hu Sui, and the others in the last group. I believe your original intention was to protect them. As the Acting City Lord, you felt that you should take the lead in any matter, but to others, your arrangement seemed to exclude those who are not yours."

"Ah? City Lord, we didn't think so," Lu Yao and Hu Sui, the last people to arrive, all shook their heads.

"I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about the people from other factions. This alone is enough to make them think of ways to divide you," Su Liu said. "Lin Su has sworn to me that she will govern her city well. What do you think? Is our Spark City no match for them?"

The group of people immediately became excited.

"I've decided to officially appoint Xun Ruozhang as the Lord of Spark City, and Lu Yao as the Deputy Lord. You're bold and careful, while she's agile and quick-witted. I made this decision not because I prefer her, nor because she's a flatterer. Do you have any objections?" Su Liu looked at Xun Ruozhang, then past him, at Liu Weizhen, Lao Li, Mu Qingting, Ayu, Hu Sui, Du Sha...

The looks in these people's eyes were either surprised, confused, happy, or calm, but no one was dissatisfied.

At this moment, Luyao was no longer like before, using the excuse of "I haven't been educated" to make excuses. She had grown a lot these days, and when she heard Su Liu trust her so much, she didn't turn her head to look at others, but said firmly, "I will definitely do it."

Su Liu nodded, "That's it, you guys go down and rest first, and then slowly adjust the internal responsibilities."

At this time, Sutao raised her hand and pulled Luyao's sleeve, and whispered, "I entrust the orphan to you."

Luyao, who was about to step out of the door, was startled and quickly turned back.

"City Lord, are you really okay?"

"Those words you said before, were they meant to coax me, or..."

Xun Ruozhang, who had not walked far away, seemed to have heard Su Tao's reminder. She immediately grabbed Liu Weizhen and surrounded Su Liu again.

She and Liu were the first people to follow Su Liu, and were also the ones who were pulled out of the quagmire by Su Liu in despair. Although as the city grew larger, she and Su Liu sometimes had different opinions, and she would even occasionally deliberately avoid Su Liu and act alone, but her feelings for Su Liu were no less than Lu Yao's.

"This is my territory. I can't sacrifice myself for no reason just so that others can live in my house and enjoy my protection," Su Liu emphasized again, "When have I ever done such a thing?"

Ji Lian, who was one step away, seemed to want to say something, but was stopped by Chu Liu.

"If we all become vampires, this world will naturally not need the sacrifice of our ancestors," Mu Qingting said sadly.

"...But it's too difficult for a human Omega to become a vampire," Xuan Ruozhang sighed.

Su Liu interrupted them with amusement, "I don't like to walk on a path that only has two possible outcomes: 'yes' or 'no'. But I can't reveal too much to you right now. Just remember, the path I walk on is one that others can't walk on. But as long as I'm willing to walk on it, this path is very wide. Maybe I can even walk comfortably in a carriage."

The crowd looked at each other.

The expressions of the crowd were a mixture of worry and conviction, and conviction mixed with worry.

Old Li and Hu Sui tried to smooth things over. "The city lord didn't marry the king, but now she's king. We never thought it would be this way, didn't you?"

Su Liu laughed, "Keep your voice down. You've only been sitting on the throne you cheated into for a short while."

So everyone laughed, and the stone in their hearts finally fell.

After everything was explained clearly.

Su Liu took Qi Fengling and Pei Yunxiu to visit the palace.

Not far behind them, the four or five male favorites left by the king accompanied them in a delicate manner.

Perhaps because he was used to serving Alphas, Su Liu felt that their walking postures were all O-like, not A-like at all. Yet, they gave him that professional smile, as if to say, "It's our honor to serve you."

"What's going on with these?" Su Liu asked Ji Lian.

Ji Lian, the chief affairs officer, is now the new steward of the palace.

"They refused to leave, saying they might starve to death if they left the palace. I was just about to ask you for your opinion," Ji Lian said.

"...First send them to the Duke's Mansion in Nancheng and hand them over to a steward named Yu Tu," Su Liu said.

Ji Lian nodded in acceptance of the order.

This matter is a foregone conclusion.

No matter how reluctant they were, they could only leave, looking back every few steps.

Su Liu knew that their current attitude was not because they liked him, but because they had to depend on him in order to survive, so they deliberately tried to please him and put in a lot of superficial efforts.

When seeing these Alphas, Su Liu would think of the scene that happened on the day when the king first met him, as well as the words that Lu Liang muttered on the eve of the beauty pageant, saying that Qi Fengling was like them.

Su Liu couldn't help feeling a little strange.

I can't even feel any sympathy or care for women.

But when I think about the original book, in which the king dismissed his harem for Yuanyue, but did not consider the employment prospects of these unemployed people well, which led to these male favorites being humiliated after leaving the palace and eventually starving to death on the streets, I can't help but sigh.

The morning light brought Su Liu's gaze back to the front.

A golden arc of light rises from the east.

Shining over the king's chamber.

The fragrance of roses wafted out from the temple.

Obviously, it is ready to welcome the arrival of its new owner.

Su Liu took out a mirror and looked at it. She originally wanted to admire the crown again, but she found that the reflection in the mirror was actually a little Alpha.

This time, the little Alpha's smile disappeared from his face, and he looked at him seriously.
