Chapter 542: The Master-Servant Contract is concluded, Xiao Ying takes control of the palace
Unexpectedly, just as he finished speaking, he was fanned to the ground by the winged tiger's wings and let out a cry of grievance.
"If you want to die, go by yourself and don't bring trouble to the master."
Winged Tiger shouted harshly, but to outsiders it was just a roar.
The golden eagle glared at it in dissatisfaction: "How did this eagle uncle get into trouble with the master? I didn't expect you to be such a coward!"
As a result, the eagle was flapped by the winged tiger again and fell to the ground.
"The master knows what to do, and doesn't need your chatter."
Seeing that the two beasts were about to fight, Xiao Ying stopped them in time, feeling quite helpless.
"You two, and Xiaoyu, go and guard the palace walls. Report any news immediately."
After driving away the three contracted beasts, she looked at Ling Yun.
"Tell me specifically, what exactly happened?"
Changsun Jing and Xia Yu also frowned. Could it be that the army was dispatched because Nangong Yunhe and the other two escaped?
Ling Yun replied, "It should be that Jingguo had already made arrangements. I didn't see Nangong Yunhe and Chu Xiang among them."
"There are at least 20,000 people surrounding the imperial palace, and there are at least tens of thousands more outside the imperial city."
"There's chaos in the city too. I'm afraid the news from the palace has already spread."
Xia Yu looked puzzled: "Does Jingguo think that these ordinary people can deal with us?"
Apart from anything else, with their strength, it would be easy for them to escape.
They are not stupid, why should they fight with these people?
As the saying goes, soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals, these cultivators only need to deal with the cultivators of Jing Kingdom.
Xiao Ying pondered for a moment and said, "Perhaps there are other intentions. If these people really rush in, we will have no choice but to leave here, and naturally we will not be able to control the Jing Kingdom Palace and the civil and military officials."
Everyone nodded, that's true.
If the imperial palace and civil and military officials cannot be controlled, the Kingdom of Jing will at most lose a few ninth-level Qi Refining cultivators, but its foundation will remain.
Although monks have an exclusive status, they are also the deterrent force of a country.
But governing a country mainly depends on ordinary people.
In fact, ordinary people may never have seen a monk in their entire lives.
For them, as long as the emperor and all the civil and military officials are still there, there will be no change in Jing State.
"Master, what should we do then?"
Ling Yun hesitated, thinking that going to war with the other party would definitely be the stupidest choice.
Xiao Ying smiled and said, "Capture some officials and bring them to the palace gate. If the army dares to act rashly, kill them."
The purpose is to make the army afraid to rush in.
They have the advantage now, so how can they be threatened by a large army?
After finally defeating the masters of Jing Kingdom and Anlan Kingdom, of course we have to maximize our benefits. This is a good opportunity to control the two countries.
"yes!"
Ling Yun immediately took the order, summoned more than ten guards from the Yue Kingdom, captured a group of officials from the Jing Kingdom, and headed towards the palace gate.
"This can only be a temporary deterrent. We still have to find a solution as soon as possible."
Chang Sun Jing admired her decisiveness, but also felt that she was in a difficult situation.
After all, this is the territory of Jing State, and they only brought a few hundred followers with them when they came to watch the ceremony.
Wanting to control the entire Jing Kingdom is simply a pipe dream.
Xiao Ying glanced at her and said with a smile, "The solution is very simple. I just need to control the Emperor of Jing and his officials."
"you mean……"
An idea flashed through Chang Sun Jing's mind, but she was not sure.
Xiao Ying nodded: "Yes, conclude a master-servant contract."
As long as they have signed a contract with these people, they naturally dare not resist, otherwise they will only die.
There can be no mercy at this time, otherwise today's victory will be meaningless.
However, from another perspective, this is the most merciful method, after all, it avoids killing.
Whether it is a fight with those big countries outside or a war between two countries, there will be countless casualties and devastating losses.
She not only had to contract with the Emperor and officials of Jing Kingdom, but also with those in the late stage of Qi Refining.
This time, those ancestors who have reached the ninth level of Qi Refining or perfection will not be let off easily.
Chang Sun Jing took a deep breath, this was indeed the method he was going to use.
"However, the number of slaves a person can contract is limited. It is best for you to choose members of the royal family and those high-ranking ministers."
Xiao Ying's eyes flashed. Is the number of contracted slaves limited?
It seems that the contracts in this world are not good enough. At least the contract she used has no restrictions.
"No problem. I know a contract that has no quantity limit."
Chang Sun Jing opened her mouth, she should have been surprised, but she didn't seem surprised.
So Xiao Ying started with the ancestors who had reached the ninth level of Qi Refining.
After these eight people took the pills, their physical conditions improved, and at least they were out of coma.
Knowing that Nangong Yunhe and Chu Xiang had abandoned them and fled, they felt very complicated.
Bai Tianhao instantly looked ten years older and no longer had his previous energy and spirit.
He had fallen into Xiao Ying's hands twice, and this time, he knew that the other party would not let him go easily.
In addition, those ancestors who were captured alive by Xiao Ying twice were also extremely ashamed. Why should they continue to fight?
If you say that the last time you were caught you felt like you fell into a trap and you were not convinced.
This time, no one can find any excuse and they are all convinced.
"Master Xiao, my Yu family is willing to pay another 10 million taels of silver as ransom. I hope Master Xiao will show mercy."
Suddenly a voice was heard, immediately attracting everyone's attention.
When Xiao Ying took a look, he found that it was Yu Wentian, the ancestor of the Yu family in Jing State.
She remembered that it was the Yu family who came first to redeem people last time. It seems that the Yu family's sense of propriety is passed down from generation to generation.
She couldn't help but laugh: "Why does Patriarch Yu think that this matter can be settled with a ransom of 10 million taels?"
"So how much do you want?"
Yu Wentian frowned. He actually felt that something was wrong.
Xiao Ying sneered, "Last time, you only asked for 10 million taels because you came here for the Foundation Establishment Pill. I can understand and forgive that."
"But this time, you came for me, wanting to capture me alive and make me serve your Jing Kingdom."
"If you succeed, I'm afraid I'll never see the light of day again in this life. You'll oppress me and imprison me until I die."
"This is a matter of life and death. Do you think I will let you go for just a few dollars?"

It's the end of the month again, so this is the end of today's chapter. I'll continue with three chapters tomorrow.
I'm finishing up this article, and the main text will be finished in about ten days. I'm begging for some love and a five-star rating. I've been given a lot of low stars recently, and my ratings have dropped, which is so sad!
