Chapter 510: The Pretentious Li Shouyi
In the middle of the day, two stars suddenly appeared in the sky of Jiyang City in Qingzhou.
The killing intent was faintly discernible.
Many citizens only felt the sky darken and had a faint illusion that the stars were shifting.
Then, everything returned to normal.
The mont just now seed to be an illusion.
However, the transcendent being of Jiyang City could sense that two sharp sword lights had enveloped the entire sky of the city in that instant.
The psionic power that should have been flowing normally stopped at that instant.
Indistinctly, there seed to be the weeping of a cuckoo as it was reflected from the psionic power.
“This is…” A knowledgeable person wondered. “A general has fallen!”
In Jiyang City, there happened to be a general who lived in seclusion.
The ancestor of the Wang family in Jiyang!
It was Wang Daoyuan!
He was a major-general a hundred years ago.
Due to his weakened qi and blood, he lived in seclusion in the spirit vein of the Wang family’s blessed land.
This was the choice that most generals made after their qi and blood weakened.
When their qi and blood weakened, they could no longer be active, which was why they lived in seclusion in the blessed land and used the spirit vein of the blessed land to hibernate and wait for the right ti.
And this ti, he lay low for a hundred years.
Over the past hundred years, his psionic power had long fused with the Blessed Land’s spirit vein that the Wang family had occupied.
Therefore, only when he died could the local psionic power have such a sorrowful ripple.
“Who killed him?” everyone couldn’t help but ask.
Although the Wang family’s Patriarch’s qi and blood were weak, he was still a powerful general!
Moreover, he had been living in the blessed land to nourish himself. It was claid that this Wang family patriarch had already taken advantage of the Blessed Land’s spirit vein to take a step forward.
Only when the concentration of the spirit aura tides reached a suitable level that it was possible for him to reshape himself, be reborn, and return to his youth.
If that was the case, the ancestor of the Wang family in Jiyang would be the true ancestor.
While everyone was in shock, a majestic psionic power transmission rang in their ears.
“The origin of the Dao of the King has rebelled against the central federal governnt. He has already been executed!”
“All of you must take the origin of the Dao of the king as a warning. You need to abide by the law throughout the night!”
It was an expert of the Blackguard!
All of the transcendent beings in Jiyang were terrified.
It was an expert of the Blackguard who had killed the Wang family’s patriarch!
A general who had been dormant for a hundred years in a blessed land!
The unease in the hearts of the people rose rapidly.
After all, the Wang family’s patriarch had always been in the blessed land. How could he go against the central federal governnt?
Now, the central federal governnt had killed him!
Was there still any law?
If he had been killed, it would cause people to feel a chill in their hearts!
It would also cause people to feel a sense of peril!
If a rabbit died, would the fox grieve? Today, it was Wang Daoyuan, but tomorrow, who would it be?
“The factory guards are so fierce!” The people sighed in their hearts.
At this mont, their phones beeped at the sa ti.
Everyone lowered their heads, but it was an email from the Blackguard.
The title of the email was: “Rebel officials and thieves, with the intention of splitting the country and going against the central federal governnt, the Commander-in-chief personally took action to eliminate the fierce and stubborn. We must eliminate Wang Daoyuan!”
Everyone opened the email one after another and saw a nacing and murderous announcent.
In this email, the official listed the illegal and obstinate affairs of the Wang family’s descendants.
They talked about stealing forbidden pills as well as colluding with foreign countries, smuggling state-controlled spirit items…
There were seven or eight appendices to all these descriptions.
But…
These weren’t the main points.
The main point was the last paragraph of the announcent: the central federal governnt had repeatedly advised the Wang family, but the Wang family didn’t change their ways. Instead, they walked further and further down the wrong path. Recently, they even wanted to split the country and establish themselves as the Hall Master of the ‘Fresh Breeze Hall’. Commander-in-chief was kind-hearted and ca to advise them, but unexpectedly, the thief was actually boasting shalessly. For the sake of all the people in the world, the central federal governnt had no choice but to resort to lightning-like ans!
“Qingfeng Hall?!”
Countless people’s eyelids twitched.
Those who were familiar with the words used by the blackguard already understood that this was the Wang family’s way of sentencing one to death!
Thinking about it carefully, most people were relieved.
Because…
Even the transcendent being and foreign species had grown up in the country’s education system.
What they heard and saw were the values of loyalty, filial piety, and righteousness.
Even the transcendent being had already tacitly acknowledged the authority of the central federal governnt and did not dare to rebel.
The Wang Clan had established the ‘Breeze Hall’without the central federal governnt’s permission.
In the empire’s tradition, this could indeed be considered as ‘rebellion’.
Anyone could execute them!
After all, more than 200 years ago, the Blackguard had already defined the red line.
One of them was: Without the central federal governnt’s approval, one was not allowed to set up a sect.
Otherwise, it would be illegal and disobedient.
Didn’t you see that even the living Buddha of the snow mountain could only be reincarnated after the country’s approval?
Therefore, most of the transcendent being in Jiyang City felt relieved after reading the mail.
The Wang family’s self-destruction had nothing to do with them.
However, a few people who knew the inside story were alard.
“Qingfeng Hall is the force the Wang family wants to establish in the realm of nightmare…”
“The hand of the Blackguard actually reached into the realm of Nightmare?!”
“Oh my God!”
These people quickly received the ssage.
A piece of news appeared in their sight: the mysterious virtual reality online ga was about to be beta testing!
They looked at the blank space under the news.
These people swallowed their saliva.
“Blackguard, did he really put his hand into the realm of Nightmare?!” So people who were already in the realm of nightmare were instantly flustered.
This kind of feeling made them feel very uncomfortable.
It was like primary school students playing gas at ho when suddenly the sound of a teacher knocking on the door ca from outside, “Child, have you finished your howork?”
As they continued to search for relevant news, they saw a piece of news on the official website of the Royal Family: On October 18th, our departnt will hold a virtual reality online ga beta testing conference in the imperial capital!
Under the news was a brand new organization, naly the Legend of Nightmare.
They swallowed their saliva. “It really reached in? !”
This was… too bad!
…
Li Shouyi put away his sword.
The spirit vein in the blessed land shattered inch by inch, and countless spirit aura gushed out and returned to heaven and earth.
Jiyang blessed land, which had been occupied by the Wang family for more than a hundred years, ended today!
But it was not a pity.
In three to five months, under the blow of the psionic power tide, a new blessed land spirit vein would be ford.
This was also common knowledge that the spirit aura had been recovering for more than two hundred years.
The spirit would appear under the effect of the psionic power tide in a certain area.
After breaking one, a few months or a few years later, a new blessed land with a spirit vein would appear again.
“Chief Yang!” Li Shouyi looked at the official behind him, the official responsible for the affairs of the transcendent being in Jiyang. “I’ll leave this place to you to deal with the aftermath!”
“You must be careful. Once Jiyang blessed land takes shape again, you’ll imdiately control it. Then, let the local transcendents co and auction it off!”
Generally speaking, the Blackguard would not monopolize all the blessed lands of the spirit vein.
Instead, they would hand over these blessed lands of the spirit vein to the transcendent being of the place.
Then, the transcendent being who obtained the Blessed Land would have to bear all sorts of obligations and responsibilities.
For example, according to the agreent, they would have to pay the output of the blessed land on ti.
Also, they would have to send people into the blackguard to accept the work arrangents.
In addition, they would have to report everything in the blessed land on a regular basis.
The Blackguard would also have to conduct random checks to prevent certain fellows from causing any great harm within the Blessed Land’s spirit vein.
Commander-in-chief yang nodded his head and received the order. Then, he asked, “Commander-in-chief… how should we deal with the other mbers of the Wang Family?”
“They should be arrested and sentenced!”
“Everything has its own laws!”
“Rember not to disturb and interfere with those mbers of the Wang family who have not committed any illegal acts!”
This was what was supposed to happen in the question.
Even in the transcendent being world, the Blackguard was using the laws and morals of the secular world.
Commander-in-chief Yang nodded and asked, “Commander-in-chief… then… What about Wang Daoyuan?”
Li Shouyi glanced at the old man who had been nailed to death by his Xuanji and Yuheng in this blessed land.
“Oh! The old thief with the Gray Beard!” Li Shouyi said disdainfully, “He deserves to be executed today!”
“Send his corpse to all parts of Qingzhou!”
“Ask the Masters of the blessed lands and spirit veins to co and take a look…”
“This is the consequence of trying to go against the central federal governnt and split the country!”
“Yes!” Commander-in-chief Yang respectfully accepted the order.
In the transcendent world, there was nothing that could shock others more than a ‘thief’s head’ parading through the streets!
Li Shouyi, on the other hand, raised his sword and left. “Let’s go to Ji Province!”
He must personally visit the various prefectures and the tropolitan territory of the central federal governnt.
He wanted to make sure that everyone could receive the central federal governnt’s accurate and unmistakable ssage: even in the realm of Nightmare, you have to listen to us! Otherwise… you will die!
“Yes!” The accompanying officers all followed.
Thus, a group of dozens of people broke through the blessed land and appeared in the outside world.
In a manor with green mountains and clear waters.
This was the entrance to the Wang family’s blessed land.
At this mont, this place was already surrounded by ard military police.
Each and every mber of the Wang family had already been shackled.
What awaited them was a trial by law!
In the past, the Wang family relied on their family background to avoid the law. They wandered between the black and white, and even blatantly violated the laws and regulations.
For so reasons, the Blackguard turned a blind eye.
After all, many things were not easy to do.
As long as these transcendent being families did not cross the red line, they would drink three cups of wine as punishnt. It would never happen again.
However, now that the Wang family was about to collapse, it was ti to settle the score.
This was also a thod of governance.
Those who were obedient would be given candy to eat.
Those who were not obedient would be beaten to death!
He ignored the Wang family mbers who looked as if they had lost their parents, and even their eyes were filled with anger.
Leading his entourage, Li Shouyi directly walked towards a few helicopters that were already on standby.
He jumped into the helicopter and said to the pilot, “Let’s Go! To Jizhou!”
“Yes, Sir!”
The helicopter started up, and the blades rotated, making a huge noise as they gradually rose into the air.
Li Shouyi put on a special earpiece.
Zhang Hui’s voice ca from the earpiece, “Commander…”
“The Royal Family released an announcent an hour ago, announcing the establishnt of the Custor Service Departnt for Legend of Nightmare’s beta testing…”
Li Shouyi listened and asked, “What did the royal family say?”
“Her Highness the eldest princess personally called and inford about this matter…”
“I’ve already sent the relevant docunts to your mailbox!”
As Li Shouyi listened, he took out his tablet, opened it, and entered the system. As expected, he saw an email. He opened the email and saw the royal family’s official letter.
This official letter had no nutrition.
But… he read it with great interest.
“As expected!” he thought, “We have served him hard and pleased him, but there is still a return!”
An official letter without any nutrition was the most nutritious instruction manual.
This ant that the federal empire might receive so benefits.
But, the other party would not explicitly state this benefit.
After all, one of his characters was tsundere!
In the words of a young man, he hated integrity.
Li Shouyi smiled and closed his eyes.
Two hours later, the helicopter appeared in the sky above Jizhou.
After his plane entered the sky above Jizhou, he t Cui Xian, the ancestor of the Cui family in Hedong County of Jizhou.
This old general, who had lived in seclusion in the blessed land for decades, was kneeling on a mountain in the direction of his plane with his upper body naked, jade wall in his mouth, and thorns on his back.
Upon seeing him, the old general imdiately bowed his head and said, “The sinner Cui Xian has failed to discipline his children properly. He has even worked for the commander-in-chief. This is a capital cri! A capital cri!”
Li Shouyi looked at him and thought to himself, “You’re an old fox!”
However, this was exactly what he wanted.
He jumped down from the helicopter and landed beside Cui Xian. He helped the old man up and said, “Mr. Cui, you are too kind! You are too kind!”
After Cui Xian was helped up, he lowered his head and uttered, “Commander-in-chief, I’m impressed!”
“Cui Xian can assure you that our Cui family is born to be a federal minister and die to be a federal ghost! We will never do such a thing as splitting the country!”
“If we get the commander-in-chief’s decree… the entire Cui family is willing to sacrifice their lives and blood to follow the commander-in-chief and the Emperor!”
“Good! Very good!” Li Shouyi laughed heartily. He held Cui Xian’s hand and said, “As the saying goes, there is an old man in the family. If there is a treasure in the family, I will protect the Emperor and confer the title of uncle to him!”
Cui Xian was slightly stunned when he heard that, but he imdiately bowed. “Thank you, Commander-in-chief! Thank you, commander-in-chief!”
Ever since the recovery of the spirit aura, transcendent being families would avoid being conferred titles by the imperial court.
The reason was simple. To be conferred titles, one had to submit to the central federal governnt.
Just like the Chu family of Qingcheng Mountain and the Celestial Master family of Dragon Tiger Mountain.
Not only did they have to obey central federal governnt’s orders at all tis, they also had to send out their most outstanding descendants to serve in the Blackguard.
This was even more unbearable for transcendent being who were born with freedom and wanted to be free and unfettered than killing them.
Therefore, the central federal governnt could only reward the transcendent being who was willing to serve the country.
Even if it was just a sergeant in the blackguard, they were treated well.
As for the collaborators of the Blackguard, they had all sorts of preferential policies and tax breaks.
They wanted to buy the hearts of the people.
Unfortunately, the effect was minimal.
A transcendent being with real strength was soone at the level of a general.
He had always been proud and arrogant.
How would he listen to others?
Those who had the feelings of a country were amazing. When a country was in trouble, they would bring out their magic swords to assist in battle.
Those who did not have the feelings of a country would not even bother to look at the country when it was in trouble.
They could still argue, “I paid taxes, I followed the law. What right do you have to make take on obligations outside of the law?”?
After one left, one could still curse, “The imperial court is like a Hawk and a dog!”
Therefore, the main backbone of the Blackguard had always been trained by themselves.
It was no wonder that there had been radical voices within the Blackguard, wanting to eradicate the transcendent being families in the world and nip these vassal soldiers in the bud.
The great principles were naturally one set after another.
From the unification of Qin Shihuang all the way to the successive dynasties of the Xia fan.
Finally, they used the lesson of the Tang dynasty’s fan-guarding to scare people.
However, the successive generations of commander-in-chief, including Li Shouyi, resolutely resisted the internal voices of the Xia fan.
The reason was very simple!
If the Xia Fan was happy for a mont, what would happen to their descendants?
Killing people was the easiest thing in the world.
One strike at a ti. With the central federal governnt’s absolute power, even if there were transcendent being who could tie with Li Shouyi,.
They could still be strangled to death!
At worst, they could chase after them with tungsten rods and smash them!
However, the crux of the problem was that after the Tang dynasty and the fifth generation of the central federal governnt, it would be the humiliation of the Song dynasty.
Killing the transcendent families and transcendent being.
It would be killing the diversity of the transcendent being in the Federal Empire.
Leaving behind only the Blackguard as a source.
Once sothing happened to the Blackguard, the Blackguard’s HP would drop.
The huge federal empire, with over two billion people, would be exposed to the powerful enemies of the outside world.
Furthermore… transcendent being was a scarce resource in itself!
They were the most important talents in this world!
All countries would welco the migration of the transcendent being.
If forced into a corner, they would run away and go to a foreign country. They might even join the enemy camp. wasn’t this adding to their troubles?
Even if he knew that many transcendent being families were causing trouble behind his back…
Even if he knew that the immortal bloodline had long been unhappy with the central federal governnt…
The central federal governnt and the Blackguard would still remain patient.
As long as they did not rebel and did not openly seek to split up…
As long as they were willing to abide by the law and the system…
The central federal governnt and the Blackguard would turn a blind eye to many things!
It was also at this mont that the world’s situation was about to change drastically.
In order to seek stability, Li Shouyi had no choice but to co out and be the villain.
Initially, he thought that he would go on a killing spree.
However, he did not expect that after killing a fellow who did not know how to adapt to the situation, transcendent being families would imdiately co to lick his boots!
This made Li Shouyi wonder if he had been too gentle in the past?
Shouldn’t he be more strict with these transcendent being families?
Just as he was thinking about this, he heard Cui Xian say, “Commander-in-chief, I heard that the central federal governnt has already taken control of that Nightmare?”
Li Shouyi imdiately ca to his senses when he heard that.
He was aware that the person behind that nightmare had made a deal with him because of that person.
He also understood that the so-called ‘Legend of Nightmare’ was most likely just a pretense.
But how would the others know?
They would only know that this realm of nightmare had already fallen into the control of the central federal governnt.
At least, a portion of it was owned by the central federal governnt.
In that case, he looked at Cui Xian and chuckled in his heart. “That’s really an old fox!”
He understood sothing.
He and the Federal Empire were using the power of the Tiger to intimidate others!
“This can be considered one of the benefits that the proud owner of the bookstore acquiesced to, right?” he thought.
However, it felt good to be pretentious!
He looked at Cui Xian with a smile and uttered, “Cui Gong, you don’t need to ask about this!”
“You will know what you need to know!”
No matter what, since there was an opportunity now, he would just take advantage of it, especially when the owner had acquiesced to it.
