Chapter 48 Shocking Qianjing
The Demon Suppression Division is now in chaos. Zhu Zihai was captured by Hua Wuyue, and there is no leader here. The emperor killed five hundred monks, which has made the people of the Demon Suppression Division panic.
They had done too many things that violated the country's laws in the past. Insulting and ridiculing the emperor was just a small matter. Now they were all worried that the emperor would investigate, so most of the people in the Demon Suppression Bureau would probably be executed.
Officials from various departments were already panicking and had no mind to work. Most of them gathered in the lobby to talk about their worries and use this as a way to vent their panic.
The entire lobby was noisier than a vegetable market. At this time, hundreds of figures flew down from outside. Zhou An walked in wearing a Taizu mask, followed closely by the King of Ten Thousand Demons and Hua Wu Yue.
Now there were no guards at the gate of the Demon Suppression Bureau, so this group of people walked in directly.
As soon as you enter the Demon Suppression Bureau, the system prompts you to sign in to obtain the Demon Suppression Tower. This is the sign-in for the internal environment of the Demon Suppression Bureau, and to open the entire Qianjing map, you only need to arrive at the location and there is no need to enter inside, so what you get are ordinary items.
When the demon hunters at the door saw Emperor Taizu in person, they all became nervous and began to sweat.
But the next time they saw the King of All Monsters and a large group of big monsters behind him, these people were scared out of their wits.
Some of the smart ones quickly knelt down and shouted, "Greetings to the Emperor Taizu."
When the people who were talking at the back heard this, they all turned to look at the door and were all stunned.
The entire hall suddenly became quiet, and then everyone knelt down to pay their respects. If it were in the past, most people would probably not even pay any attention to the emperor, let alone kneeling.
Zhou An glanced at these people and saw that they had all knelt down before he said, "From today on, the King of Ten Thousand Monsters will serve as the commander-in-chief of the Monster Suppression Division."
Hearing this, many people looked up in shock, with expressions of disbelief.
The King of Ten Thousand Monsters stepped forward and chuckled, "Boys, there is no need to introduce yourselves. Zhu Zihai is just a servant of mine. I am your commander, but does anyone have any objections?"
The person who had just looked up immediately lowered his head, and was shocked at the same time. This Emperor Taizu was too terrifying. Not only did Hua Wu Yue appear, but now there was an even more terrifying King of Ten Thousand Demons. Who would dare to touch the Qianyuan Empire in the future?
If the King of Ten Thousand Demons leads the demons in the Ten Thousand Demon Forest to go to war, which country can contend with him, unless the immortal cultivators in each country's own territory join the war.
The power unleashed by such a large-scale battle among cultivators is enough to change the climate and bring about natural disasters.
There has always been an unwritten rule that cultivators cannot participate in wars between countries, otherwise they will be despised by cultivators all over the world. Everyone also considers the safety of the environment in which they live.
Moreover, because of his own war, a natural disaster was brought about, resulting in millions of deaths and injuries. Who can bear it? Should he still endure the natural calamity?
At this time, a man stood up and shouted: "I have an opinion."
Everyone was shocked and looked at this person as if he was an idiot. Those who knew him sighed and looked as if it was expected.
The King of Ten Thousand Demons chuckled and black smoke appeared on his hands. The demon hunter quickly took out two talismans from his waist pocket and threw them out. He quickly formed seals with his hands, and the talismans flew in front of him, forming a square barrier.
Zhou An stopped the King of Ten Thousand Monsters and asked with interest: "What's your name? What's your opinion? Do you dare to disobey the emperor's order?"
"I dare not. My name is Tianzong. It's just that the Demon Suppression Bureau captures demons that bring disaster to the human world. The King of Ten Thousand Demons is the King of Demons himself. How can I convince people in the world?" Tianzong said this neither humbly nor arrogantly, but he was actually nervous inside.
"The duty of the Demon Suppression Bureau is to capture unruly demons, not to convince the people of the world. That is the court's job," said Zhou An.
Tian Zong was stunned for a moment, then shouted: "This is against the rules. The Demon Suppression Division is full of humans, how can we allow demons to join, let alone manage them."
"My words are the rules, and I will not force anyone to do anything. Anyone who refuses to obey can hand over their identity token and leave the Demon Suppression Division. Of course, your past crimes can be forgiven, but if you commit them again in the future, your crime will be even more severe."
Zhou An said loudly, walked up to Tianzong and said, "Any other opinions?"
Tianzong took off the token hanging on his waist, threw it on the ground, and strode away.
The big demon behind the King of Ten Thousand Demons showed murderous intent, blocked Tianzong's way, and wanted to attack.
"Let him go, and the same goes for others. Remember one thing, today is the only chance. Anyone who stays will not be forgiven if they dare to gossip behind your back again." Zhou An shouted.
Tianzong glanced at him and strode away. At this time, someone else stood up, threw down his identity token and followed him away.
After a while, nearly half of the people here chose to leave.
Zhou An said, "King of Ten Thousand Monsters, I'll leave it to you from now on. You have the final say over everything in the Monster Suppression Division. This treasure will be handed over to you for management, and it will serve as the exclusive spiritual treasure of the Monster Suppression Division in the future."
The King of Ten Thousand Monsters took a tower-shaped treasure, and after sensing it with his soul, he nodded in amazement and said, "What a treasure! This thing is simply the nemesis of the monster race."
"This Demon Suppression Tower will be used as the Demon Suppression Bureau to detain criminal demons in the future." Zhou An said.
"Okay." The Monster King glanced at the Monster Hunter and said, "From now on, everything here will be based on merit. Whoever has the most merit will be the leader. No matter if they are human or monster, we will treat them equally.
Also, I have a bad temper. If anyone dares to violate my rules, I will use their money to make pills and give them to the meritorious person. Do you understand? "
"Understood." All the demon hunters answered loudly.
Zhou An nodded. It was too easy for the King of Ten Thousand Demons to shock this place. Just his name, the King of Ten Thousand Demons, was enough to make everyone shut up.
After saying goodbye to the King of Ten Thousand Demons and asking him to arrange the personnel, we agreed to have a drink together in the evening.
Back in the palace, Zhou An, the Queen, and Hua Wu Yue entertained the King of Ten Thousand Demons and his disciples in Changle Palace.
A group of demon kings frightened the queen again. Although she was not a cultivator, she had heard of the name of the Demon King.
A series of personnel changes in the palace completely suppressed the queen's ambitions. Under the current circumstances, she had no other ideas. She was thankful that her position as queen could be protected.
In order to prove his own value and keep his position, he can only work harder, manage the country well, and make sure Emperor Taizu has no worries. Only then can his position be stable.
Zhou An had long seen through the Queen's little thoughts, but he did not point them out. Shangguan Rong was smart and could clearly position herself and knew what to do to benefit herself best.
The news that the King of Ten Thousand Demons would be appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Demon Suppression Bureau shocked the world once again. However, this time, no one openly opposed it, even though many people talked about it.
When the monks in Qianjing heard the news, they were shocked and could only sigh. How could they dare to interfere in the royal family's affairs anymore?
The evil organizations hidden in the city suffered the greatest impact. They all planned to watch the battle between the righteous and the evil, and they would take advantage of it secretly to seize the Sun, Moon, and Universe Pearls.
Now that the King of Ten Thousand Demons has suddenly intervened, many people are panicked. There are only a handful of people in the Qianyuan Empire who can go against the King of Ten Thousand Demons.
In fact, the ones who were really scared were the monsters hiding in the city. The King of Ten Thousand Monsters was the most famous in the monster world. It could be said that within the Qianyuan Empire, the King of Ten Thousand Monsters was recognized as the strongest.
This is also Zhou An’s biggest goal, to intimidate the evil ways and monsters so that they dare not mess around in Qianjing.
Sure enough, over the next period of time, there were no more immortal cultivators causing trouble in Qianjing, and the whole city was peaceful. In some restaurants, the arrogant attitude of the evil cultivators also disappeared.
The monsters that took the opportunity to mingle with the crowd and suck the essence of living people also disappeared. Suddenly, the murders involving immortal cultivators and monsters stopped. Since the immortal cultivators gathered in Qianjing, several people would go missing or die every day, and even a family of dozens of people would be wiped out.
All of a sudden, the world seemed to be at peace, and the King of All Demons cleared a piece of land behind the Demon Suppression Bureau and placed the Demon Suppression Tower there, turning it into a nine-story tower.
