"Besides you, is there anyone else?"
Ye Qiu spoke, his gaze sharp and piercing.
Anyone could tell that Ye Qiu's tone carried a clear murderous intent.
This made even those who had not yet spoken out feel a chill in their hearts, and they hesitated to make any move.
However, at this moment, the old man surnamed Zhuge suddenly shouted, "Fellow Daoists of the Ming family, Brother Daoists of the Huang family, and the Sect Master of the Nine Nether Sect, you had a very pleasant conversation with me yesterday and reached a common goal on the matter of the new law. Why don't you come out now?"
Upon hearing this, several people in the crowd immediately turned pale.
They didn't want to come out, but now they had no choice but to bite the bullet and go out.
"Brother Zhuge, this is about reasoning, not fighting. It won't take many people."
A middle-aged man came out, looking slightly embarrassed.
The old man Zhuge smiled and said, "We can't risk our lives while you reap the benefits."
"You're too kind, you're too kind."
“It’s not heavy at all.” Old Man Zhuge’s gaze shifted, and he said seriously, “There are others, but don’t make me name them one by one. Although I’m old, my memory is still quite good.”
As soon as these words were spoken, several more people stepped out from the crowd.
This group of people are all outstanding figures in the cultivation world, and their combined presence exudes an extraordinary aura.
It is no exaggeration to say that these dozens of people can indeed represent half of the cultivation world of the Great Xia Dynasty at present.
This is also the source of their confidence to gather together and oppose the new law.
"I think there are still some of you who haven't come out yet, but that's not important anymore," Ye Qiu said calmly. "From this moment on, the reckoning has begun."
Liquidation?
A group of people not far from Ye Qiu stared at him with strange expressions.
The old man Zhuge said directly, "Emperor Wu, we have come here by invitation to attend the meeting. You killed a fellow Daoist from the Ascension Sect at the meeting. I'm afraid the Ascension Sect will not let this go."
If you intend to harm us as well, you'd better think twice. Since we dare to stand here, we will never allow ourselves to be manipulated.
"If I remember the information correctly, you should be the sect leader of the Donghua Sect, Zhuge Ming, right?" Ye Qiu asked.
"It is indeed I," Zhuge Ming said, standing with his hands behind his back, exuding an air of otherworldly elegance.
"You also agree with amending the new law. How do you think the new law should be amended?" Ye Qiu asked directly.
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Ming immediately said, "There are two points: First, the new law should prioritize clans and aristocratic families."
Secondly, clan-based families should be above local government offices, and the government offices should obey the orders of clan-based families.
"Emperor Wu, I believe that the aristocratic clans will bear the responsibility of protecting the Great Xia in the future, therefore this request is not excessive at all."
Ye Qiu sneered: "You martial arts forces dare to try to dominate the imperial court? Why don't you just ask me to allow you to appoint kings in various places?"
“That’s a good idea,” Zhuge Ming immediately said. “If Emperor Wu were to enfeoff kings in various places, the problem would be easier to solve, and there would surely be favorable weather and peace throughout the land.”
"Mr. Zhuge is right."
"I agree."
"Senior Zhuge saw things more clearly."
A group of people spoke up in support.
Yunmo's eyes lit up.
If they can be granted the title of King, the future development of Yunxian Palace will be smooth sailing and unstoppable.
Ye Qiu clenched his fists, his killing intent impossible to conceal.
But just as Ye Qiu was about to make a move, a shout came from the crowd: "You shameless bastards, you are utterly shameless!"
As the sound rang out, an elderly man with white hair, accompanied by a young girl, strode out.
The old man, dressed in a white robe, was now filled with rage.
"Hey, isn't this Meng Hong, the legendary master of the Supreme Hall? What's wrong? Going against me?" Zhuge Ming immediately said sarcastically.
The white-robed old man, Meng Hong, stared directly at Zhuge Ming and coldly shouted, "You are being unreasonable and arrogant; it's simply laughable."
This world does not belong to any sect or family, but to all people.
Therefore, the resources of the Great Xia should be shared by all the people, and you have no right to deprive the common people of their due rights.
Furthermore, the idea that powerful clans and aristocratic families could lord it over the government is utterly absurd, a pipe dream. Don't even think about it; I, Meng Hong, firmly oppose it.”
"What's the use of your objection? Who do you think you are?" Zhuge Ming sneered.
Meng Hong also sneered, turned around, looked at Ye Qiu, bowed respectfully, and said in a deep voice without any attempt to hide his true feelings: "Emperor Wu, Meng Hong is willing to follow you. If you want to kill these rats, the Supreme Hall is willing to go all out and send out its full force, even if it means shedding blood, to ensure that these wolves with ambitions do not succeed."
Ye Qiu glanced at Meng Hong, somewhat surprised.
Then, Ye Qiu smiled with satisfaction: "It seems that not all sects and families are unreasonable; there are still wise sects."
"Emperor Wu, I'm not just saying this; I truly wish to follow you and slay these shameless traitors," Meng Hong hurriedly said.
"I believe you. Please rest for now, Elder Meng. I'll handle this first," Ye Qiu said.
"yes."
Meng Hong bowed and stepped aside.
Ye Qiu looked at Zhuge Ming without saying a word, but his feet had already moved.
Upon seeing this, Zhuge Ming felt inexplicably flustered: "Emperor Wu, what do you mean by this?"
"I'll kill you."
Ye Qiu uttered two words.
Why did you kill me?
"You are trying to tear the Great Xia apart, trying to rise above the court, trying to undermine the court's authority, and trying to interfere with the laws of the dynasty."
Any one of these crimes is enough to get you killed without a burial place.
Oh, no, I should say you guys.
Wow.
The group of people were instantly awakened.
Ye Qiu wasn't trying to negotiate with them at all; he wanted to kill them all.
