The moment the words "no mercy" were uttered, the court fell silent, and no minister dared to voice any further opposition.
They meant it when they said they would kill; they weren't stupid. Besides, the king was the emperor of the human race, and even the goddess Nuwa said that the hope for the great prosperity of the human race rested entirely on the king.
Seeing that his ministers remained silent, Emperor Xin nodded in satisfaction. "All the civil and military officials agree. It seems that my decision was correct! Then let us announce it to the world and implement it immediately!"
The courtiers: ?!
Did we agree with that? We simply listened to whatever you said!
never mind!
Who told you to be king? Whatever makes you happy!
After the officials dispersed,
Emperor Xin summoned Wen Zhong, Bi Gan, Huang Feihu, and Shang Rong, who had returned from his official duties.
"I will be away for a while. I will leave the affairs of state to you four to discuss and handle. Just do as I say. If there are any difficult decisions, leave them for my return."
After the sound faded,
Wen Zhong hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, where are you going? This is a crucial time for a series of reforms in the Great Shang Dynasty. If you leave, we are afraid that we will be in trouble..."
“Yes! Your Majesty, you are our backbone. If you leave at this time, we are afraid we will not be able to control the overall situation!” Shang Rong chimed in.
Di Xin slowly said, "Everything has taken shape. Just proceed step by step. Kill those who should be killed and carry it out in an orderly manner. My purpose in going there is to retrieve the Kongtong Seal, the most precious treasure of my human race, and to suppress my destiny."
Only in this way can our human race truly rise, and only then can we one day overthrow the Heavenly Court and stand at the pinnacle of the primordial world.
Upon hearing this,
Wen Zhong, Shang Rong, and the other three knew the importance of this matter, but they couldn't help feeling worried.
"Your Majesty, the Kongtong Seal is now in the hands of the Human Sect, and behind the Human Sect stands a Sage. This matter... we must be more cautious!" Shang Rong hurriedly said.
The other three shared this view. Although the king had defeated one of Nuwa's avatars at Nuwa Palace, it was only an avatar. What if the true body were present? How terrifying would the power of a saint be?
"A mere sage, do I need to be careful? Don't worry, he won't be gone for long!" Di Xin said calmly.
Wen Zhong and the other three: ? ? ?
Your Majesty, though you possess great talent and profound knowledge, you must not become arrogant!
A mere saint?!
Good heavens!
this……!
Your Majesty, this habit of boasting is unacceptable!
Seeing the expressions on the four people's faces, Di Xin knew what they were thinking and said calmly, "What?! You don't believe me?"
Wen Zhong and the other three: "..."
this!
Your Majesty, we truly have no way of answering your question!
If I say I believe it, wouldn't that be deceiving the emperor?
If we say we don't believe you, you'll get angry. It's so hard for us!
Be silent!
Silence is golden!
Di Xin: ?_?｀!
You promised to absolutely trust me?! Damn it! Believe it or not, I'll show you what a tyrant I am, with my own wine pools and meat forests, my own flower-arranging pleasures!
"That's settled then, all of you get out of here!" Di Xin said.
Wen Zhong and the other three said, "Your Majesty, please be careful!" and then left with reluctance in their eyes.
Di Xin: ? ? ?
What's with those four old guys' eyes? They're giving me a sudden feeling of "The wind is howling, the Yi River is cold, the hero departs, never to return!"
wipe!
"..."
then,
A ripple spread through the space around Di Xin, and he vanished from his spot.
moment,
Shouyang Mountain
Di Xin's figure appeared, and at the same time, his imperial aura enveloped the entire Shouyang Mountain.
"Laozi, I have arrived! Why are you not quick to greet me?!" Di Xin's voice resounded.
Today, the teachings of the People are managed by Laozi, who is one of the three corpses severed by the sage Laozi.
Just as the voice faded, a voice rang out from Shouyang Mountain, "My master has been in seclusion refining pills for some years. Now is a crucial time, so please do not disturb him!"
[I highly recommend Yeguo Reading; it's really good for tracking books. You can download it here: yeguoyuedu. Give it a try!]
"I am the Human Emperor, and the Human Religion must obey my orders. If I command him to come, he must come!" Emperor Xing declared domineeringly.
Upon hearing this,
In the Shouyang Mountains, the voice rang out again, "My master is currently in seclusion. Please come another day, Your Majesty!"
"snort!"
"I cannot live without Heaven, nor can I live without Heaven. Are you making me wait?!"
"Laozi, if you don't come out soon, Shouyang Mountain will cease to exist!"
"Those who defy my will shall be killed!" Di Xin's domineering voice resounded, his imposing aura radiating.
The laws surged, the imperial dragon energy condensed, and a ten-thousand-foot golden dragon coiled around Shouyang Mountain.
The disciples of the Humanist School were all terrified.
At that very moment,
Within Shouyang Mountain, shimmering light rises and a screen appears, resembling a jade bowl inverted over Shouyang Mountain.
Amidst the spatial tremors, the figure of Laozi appeared before Emperor Xin.
He held a whisk in his hand, had white hair but a youthful face, and wore a Taoist robe that exuded an air of otherworldly elegance.
"You... are Di Xin?" Laozi asked suspiciously.
What happened?!
What exactly happened during his seclusion?!
How...! Without the Kongtong Seal, how could Di Xin have cultivated? And even reached such a level?
“I am he!” Di Xin replied.
At this time,
The Great Luo Heavenly Mysterious Capital Cave
Laozi also became aware of what was happening at Shouyang Mountain, and quickly relayed a message to Laozi.
"Don't provoke him, and try your best to meet his demands!"
Lao Tzu: ⊙﹏⊙?
What's going on?!
Why would the Sage himself warn me not to provoke Di Xin, and why does it sound like he's somewhat apprehensive?
