Chapter Ninety-Seven: Taking the Initiative (Bonus Chapter for Poonlo's Donation)



These people are used to being pampered and spoiled. Even experts like Shangguan Ling and Chu Wenze have been spoiled and ruined, let alone those at the bottom.

Therefore, it would be more practical to recruit some frustrated江湖人 (jianghu people, people from the martial arts world) and train them yourself.

The second was a notice posted in the name of Zhenwu Hall, saying that someone was planning to assassinate the emperor on his birthday, intending to overthrow the Great Zhou regime.

Therefore, from now until the Emperor's birthday, the capital will be under complete martial law. All cultivators and martial artists in the capital must register their detailed information at the Zhenwu Hall; otherwise, they will be considered dangerous individuals.

At best, they would be imprisoned in the Zhaoyu prison for interrogation; if it was confirmed that they already had a criminal record, they would be executed on the spot!

Yang Cheng had been struggling with the main quest in this world because he couldn't find a clue and could only wait passively.

There are too many forces that want Zhou Heng dead. Even if Yang Cheng stayed by Zhou Heng's side the whole time, he might not be able to protect him. After all, he is only one person and cannot guard Zhou Heng 24 hours a day. Of course, Zhou Heng might not be willing to do so either.

Therefore, after gaining real power, Yang Cheng prepared to take the initiative to completely eliminate all dangerous factors in the capital and prevent problems before they arise.

Upon hearing Yang Cheng's words, Zhang Meng was immediately alarmed: "Someone wants to assassinate His Majesty? Why don't you report this to the Imperial Guards and the Palace? This is a matter of utmost importance!"

Yang Cheng said calmly, "There's no need to make a fuss. Aren't there many forces in the world that want to assassinate His Majesty? His Majesty's birthday celebration will be even more chaotic, and something might happen."

Now, what could be more important than preventing His Majesty from being assassinated? We need to find a pretext to act now.

Zhang Meng immediately understood.

They're very familiar with the tactic of using someone else's name to intimidate others.

Yin Wuxie hesitated for a moment and said, "My lord, do you really want all the martial artists in the capital to register and file a case?"

There are just too many martial arts practitioners coming and going in the capital every day, and some major sects even have their own offices stationed there.

There are also various powerful figures and independent cultivators from all walks of life, as well as notorious bandits and other mixed characters.

"Once this order is issued, the Zhenwu Hall will become the public enemy of the martial arts world in the capital."

Yang Cheng patted Yin Wuxie on the shoulder and said casually, "The Zhenwu Hall is not the same as the previous Yushou Division. If we're going to do it, let's do something big!"

"If we don't make a big fuss and build up our reputation, how can our Zhenwu Hall become famous throughout the martial arts world?"

Having completed two Heavenly-level evaluation tasks in a row, Yang Cheng finally understood how the Heavenly Reincarnation System determines evaluation levels.

It's very simple: the more commotion you cause in the mission world, the higher your evaluation level.

For example, in the world of Dragon City Conquest, Yang Cheng could have chosen to live a lowly life as a hoodlum, but instead, he chose to form alliances, eliminate Lei Luo and Limpy Ho, and unite all the gangsters in Hong Kong, turning the order of the underworld upside down.

The same is true for this world now.

If Yang Cheng hadn't been promoted, he would have remained at most an ordinary江湖人 (jianghu person, a person who lives and works in the martial arts world).

Then, find an opportunity to infiltrate positions such as the Imperial Guard, the Imperial Guard, and the Imperial Bodyguard, which offer opportunities to have contact with the emperor, and secretly protect him.

At this time, Yang Cheng chose to establish the Zhenwu Hall, stirring up the winds of the martial arts world, reshaping the martial arts lineage of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and also taking the initiative to nip all the crises in the bud. The main quest and side quests began at the same time.

If he continues like this, as long as he can ensure Zhou Heng doesn't die, his evaluation at the end of the assessment will definitely be at the Heavenly level.

Seeing Yang Cheng's confident attitude, Yin Wuxie and the others were perhaps inspired. The newly established Zhenwu Hall immediately began to mobilize, and the news spread far and wide with the help of some martial arts media.

The martial arts world in the capital is a chaotic mix, with various factions and numerous independent cultivators; it's a veritable melting pot of all sorts of people.

But regardless of which one, they all scoffed at the demands made by Zhenwu Hall, and even cursed at them.

These wanderers of the martial world roam the land, pursuing nothing more than freedom. What are you thinking, expecting them to register with the government like ordinary people?

Not to mention that some people are not good people to begin with. They have killed people on a whim more than once or twice, and even murder and robbery are common occurrences for them. How could they possibly voluntarily register and file a case?

So, after the news spread for a day, no one came to register at the Zhenwu Hall, and for a time, the so-called Zhenwu Hall became almost a joke.

But Yang Cheng wasn't in a hurry, which was perfectly normal.

People are sometimes like that; they won't shed tears until they see the coffin, and they won't feel the pain until the knife falls on their own body.
