No martial artist who can make a name for themselves in the martial arts world is an easy opponent.
For most people in the martial arts world, the Three Evils of Eastern Sichuan were already considered formidable masters they dared not provoke.
As a result, these three were swiftly and decisively killed by Yang Cheng.
The scene where Yang Cheng killed Du Jiao at the end was particularly terrifying to them.
They didn't even realize how Du Jiao died; it was as if he exploded in an instant, which was extremely terrifying.
Yang Cheng casually threw away the severed head in his hand. The Zhenwu Hall members who were guarding the area also appeared on the long street.
All the martial artists in the Zhenwu Hall were dressed the same, wearing black clothes and black bamboo hats.
This outfit can conceal one's appearance during the day and makes it easier to act at night.
In addition to the lowest-ranking soldiers, the Zhenwu Hall still has captains above them, but above the captains are four commanders who are responsible for assisting Yang Cheng and overseeing the overall situation.
Besides Yin Wuxie and the other two, Zhang Meng was also promoted to commander by Yang Cheng.
“Drowned the heads of these three men in lime and hung them on the city gate tower as a warning to the public.”
Remember to send someone to keep an eye on it, lest the eagle snatch it away.
After saying that, Yang Cheng took a step and leaped onto the top of the building, disappearing from sight in just a few steps.
The news that the Three Evils of Eastern Sichuan were publicly executed by the Grand Commander of the Zhenwu Hall and their heads were hung on the city gate tower as sausages spread throughout the entire capital within half a day.
Only now did these martial arts practitioners realize fear and dread, afraid that they would be the next to be targeted by the Zhenwu Hall and hung on the city gate tower to dry in the wind.
Unlike the deserted place the day before, the Zhenwu Hall was packed with martial arts practitioners who came to register that very evening. The crowd was so dense that the Zhenwu Hall did not have enough clerical staff and had to borrow people from other government offices.
However, those who could come were mostly minor figures, and there weren't many experts.
However, Yang Cheng also instructed the Zhenwu Hall members to warn them that if they discovered any suspicious individuals, they should immediately report to the Zhenwu Hall, and there would be a large reward for them.
In short, after Yang Cheng made an example of someone to scare others, the prestige of Zhenwu Hall was initially established.
So much so that when martial artists from outside the capital came to the city, the first thing they did was not to look for an inn, but to register at the Zhenwu Hall.
Yang Cheng checked his mission progress; the mission to eliminate martial arts in the martial world had reached 5%.
This task seems to be a long and arduous one to complete, and it's certainly not something I can accomplish in this short time.
Yang Cheng has been busy these past two days and hasn't had much rest.
Fearing something might happen at Zhenwu Hall, Yang Cheng simply closed his eyes and meditated on a chair in the main hall of Zhenwu Hall to temper his mental strength.
After nightfall, Ye Meiniang came in, but seeing that Yang Cheng had his eyes closed, she assumed he was sleeping, so she quietly left.
But as soon as she turned around, she heard Yang Cheng behind her ask, "Has something happened?"
Ye Meiniang shook her head and said, "No, things are going very smoothly at the Zhenwu Hall. With your presence to deter us, no one dares to cause trouble."
However, most of the martial artists who come to the Zhenwu Hall to file cases are those who are relatively weak and do not have a deep background.
Those martial artists with real backgrounds are still observing, or rather, they believe that the forces behind them are enough to rival my Zhenwu Hall.
Yang Cheng said in a deep voice, "I'll handle these guys. I was originally planning to 'visit' them one by one."
Ye Meiniang paused for a moment before saying, "Boss, I think you've been working too hard and rushing around lately."
Although we are now in high positions of power and are no longer low-level江湖人 (jianghu people) or small constables of the Anti-Theft Bureau, life doesn't seem as easy and comfortable as before.
And you're a little different than before.
Yang Cheng chuckled lightly: "There are gains and losses. Those in high positions should be aware of their responsibilities. At least we still have the right to make choices now, unlike before when we could only go with the flow."
You said I'm different from before, so what was I like before?
Ye Meiniang was slightly taken aback.
She suddenly realized that her memories of her boss seemed somewhat hazy.
When did my memory become so bad?
Yang Cheng waved his hand and said, "Alright, let's not think about these things for now. Once His Majesty's birthday celebration is over and the Zhenwu Hall is completely stable, we'll be able to relax."
In fact, Yang Cheng had a guess that the cycle of reincarnation had implanted a memory in the minds of Ye Meiniang and others, which gave him, a person who descended out of nowhere, a foundation.
Now that they have been together for a longer period of time, that false memory from before will naturally be replaced by the present.
After all, the cycle of reincarnation can implant memories, but it cannot accurately implant a living person, a living personality.
If the previous memories don't disappear, Ye Meiniang and the others will inevitably become suspicious.
After leaving Zhenwu Hall, Yang Cheng went straight to Grand Tutor Cai's residence.
If Zhang Xiren's residence was simple and unassuming, then Grand Tutor Cai was blatantly greedy.
Although his mansion appears unremarkable on the outside, it contains a very exquisite Jiangnan-style garden inside, as if the Jiangnan water town had been brought to the capital.
Yang Cheng presented his visiting card, and before long, Grand Tutor Cai personally came out to greet him, followed by the vicious Yuwen Du.
"Lord Yang, I am sorry for not being able to greet you properly. Please forgive me."
Grand Tutor Cai wore a smile on his face, treating the junior Yang Cheng as if he were a senior court official who had served in the same palace for many years.
Rice ball reading
He remained in power in the Great Zhou court for decades, relying on his ability to read people's expressions and moods.
He would side with whichever side had the upper hand in court, never adhering to his own principles, and didn't care even if he was proven wrong afterward.
