King You furrowed his brow and said, "Most importantly, he can actually maintain his full strength."
This is the crux of the matter.
If it were only a coback of the Primordial Spirit, Earth Uncle would have already blocked Ghost Gate and killed Jiang Li.
"That Jiang family's child is indeed cunning and deceitful."
Upon hearing this, Earth Uncle's face also darkened, then he waved and said, "Forget it, even I suffered a bit at that child's hands. It's no surprise ng Jun would fare the sa. Harvest those treacherous souls, don't let them go to waste."
Saying that, Earth Uncle's face showed no regret for ng Jun, only indifference.
Traitors and rebels, everyone wants them dead. Instead of letting Zhu Hui'an claim credit, it's better to let Yin Law Departnt have the benefit.
And after such a siege, who could say the Yin Law Departnt had ulterior motives before?
As for why Yin Soldiers were deployed earlier, it was naturally to deal with the Eldest Prince attempting to force the palace and this traitor ng Jun.
"Xuan Tong has already gone, and the judges and Soul Hookers in the departnt have set up Heaven and Earth Net in the Outer City, ensuring no traitor or rebel can escape," King You replied.
Even though the ng Family only had ng Jun as the pillar, there were still capable people in the family, not to ntion other officials and families supporting the Eldest Prince.
But under the suppression of Zhu Hui'an and the blockade of the Yin Law Departnt, they are dood to stir up no significant trouble.
Hearing this, Earth Uncle no longer paid attention to these traitors and rebels, waving his sleeve to change the mirror's view to the Imperial City.
After a bout of slaughter, the palace walls were filled with blood, yet now they had mostly returned to their pristine state, even damaged areas had been repaired.
Under the influence of magic, all the blood was washed away, the damages repaired, and even the remaining Qi chanisms were dispersed. At least the palace walls and gates outwardly had been restored to their forr majestic state, with the royal aura once again manifested.
As the scene in the mirror changed, a young and an old figure entered the Imperial City.
The young man, clad in white, exuded an imposing aura, he was Elder Yuheng of the Dinghu Sect, while the old man wore a worried expression. Judging from his thick Qi, he appeared to be a Jiang Clan mber practicing Innate Qi.
King You recognized the two and said, "Elder Yuheng of Dinghu, and the Jiang Family Elder Jiang Bowei. He was the one who helped Jiang Li consolidate the Jiang's branch family, recomnding Jiang Li as the Master of Jiang Family. This man has ability, but so mistakes have been made. The Jiang Family's disciples assaulting the palace have hurt the Jiang Family badly."
"The Jiang family mbers, born rebellious, it's no surprise."
Earth Uncle snorted faintly, looking at the palace city, "After Jiang Li's return, he didn't pass through the Yin World back to Yong Province. The Buddha Country should also have been defeated, so he's probably gone. The Heavenly Monarch gave a good reason, without using force, I can drive Ji Lingguang and Jiang Li away."
"They should provide an explanation regarding Feng Manlou's identity," King You coldly laughed.
This ti, instead of using force, they were using softness.
Once the matter of Feng Manlou and the Great Venerable being the sa person spread out, how could she, the Princess, maintain her position as regent? Even if she were shaless, the officials wouldn't dare to support her.
Involving such a dangerous figure as the Great Venerable, anyone who still wanted the Great Zhou to remain stable would need to think carefully.
This is righteousness, which must not be relinquished.
A dynasty cannot lack martial power, for it is the strong in battle who conquer the world, but it also cannot lack righteousness. Without righteousness, anyone can revolt, should they dare.
The princes of the Ji Family enfeoffed to the South already had conflicts with the Divine Capital. If they were given this excuse, there might be imdiate uprisings.
This is the real risk of Feng Manlou's exposed identity.
······
······
Upon entering the Imperial City, Clan Elder Jiang Bowei, along with Elder Yuheng, were led towards the North Gate, to directly et Jiang Li.
Along the way, he saw ruins upon ruins, in so places deep fissures cracked open, causing him to shudder inwardly.
Unwittingly, the branch family child he had placed his last hope in had already risen to such heights. In just a few years, the Jiang Family has not only returned to the court, but is poised to defeat the Ji Family, with the potential to sit upon the Emperor's throne.
Yet...
'Within the Jiang Family, there appears a traitor.'
The Clan Elder couldn't help grinding his teeth in frustration.
He could already imagine how the political enemies would attack Jiang Li, with Feng Manlou's identity being one issue, and the assault on the Imperial City by Jiang Family's disciples being another.
From the surface, these people were simply trying to break rocks with eggs, but so matters are judged by the act being done, not by its success. The Jiang Family's traitors storming the Imperial City was more than enough to threaten Jiang Li, not to ntion the affairs on Feng Manlou's end.
With such thoughts, the Clan Elder finally arrived near the North Gate.
In front, seven Dharma Platforms stood, filled with Divine Light, now being slowly pushed open by a dazzling brilliance.
Through the Divine Light of the Vermilion Bird Seven Constellations, a large cauldron could be seen standing tall, with radiant light emanating from its open top, dispersing the Divine Light layer by layer, like the rising sun, unstoppable.
Roiling heat surged forth, causing both the Clan Elder and Elder Yuheng to involuntarily channel their True Qi to protect themselves.
"Divine Farr's Cauldron! Could it be..."
The Clan Elder recognized the large cauldron, trembling as he spoke, "Jiang Li... could the Minister of Works be ascending?"
Ascending to the third grade, what a great matter, the Jiang Family was likely to ascend directly to the pinnacle.
But if this ascension wasn't to the Emperor Dao Fruit, wouldn't it an forfeiting the throne of Emperor?
The Clan Elder felt both excited and regretful in his heart.
"Ascending to Emperor Yan isn't that easy."
