Chapter 598: Storm In Great Xia (2)

After a while, even Sunmoons started arrivingl. General Zhao, Administrator Hu, Director Ji, commander of the Secret Martial Dragon Guards, commander of the Great Xia Army, the old madam of Wu Family…

One expert after another arrived. Xia Yunji, Hu Ping, Zhao Mingyue, and the others had arrived as well. Even people like Wan Tiansheng and Zheng Ping were present, standing in front of the crowd.

Some of them were pale. Some of them looked sorrowful. Some were furious. For example, a few of the experts from the military were so furious they looked like they could kill someone immediately. They were glaring at the single character faction members, wishing for nothing but to tear those people apart.

Great Xia had about a million soldiers active on the front lines. And there were even more soldiers behind the front lines. This scandal was too serious. It could threaten the morale of the army. If an enemy decided to attack during this moment of weakness, Great Xia would be in great trouble.

“Reporting!”

A Mountainsea strode into the room and dropped down on one knee before loudly saying, “Marquis, Zhou Mingren, Hong Tan…A total of sixteen Mountainseas are in seclusion. They are unable to attend this meeting.”

Marquis Xia rapped on the armrest as he listened. With a smile, he said, “If they’re in seclusion, so be it. We can’t force them to end seclusion.”

Someone else strode in and reported, “Marquis, the ambassadors of Great Zhou, Great Shang, Great Ming, and a few other prefectures have arrived outside.”

“Let them in.” Marquis Xia smiled and said, “Great Xia has been reduced into a joke so I suppose it’s fine that we allow them to enjoy the show.”

He had a wide smile on his face, but when the experts saw that smile, they trembled with fear. Great Xia had suffered tremendously. Su Yu alone had shaken the entire Great Xia with a single recording, causing the masses and the soldiers of Great Xia to stir. Every single cultural researcher in Great Xia became a subject of hatred of these people.

They were requesting to have the three largest cultural research academies in the prefect to be shut down. They demanded to have the academies flattened. Those were terrifying demands.

“Marquis, the ambassadors of the Knowledge Seeking Realm and War Shrine are requesting for an audience.”

“Let them in.” Marquis Xia smiled and said, “Let us continue. Is anyone else coming? Is the cult sending anyone here as well? After all, some of us are quite close with the cult, right? Come on, tell the cult to send some people here as well.”

“…”

Nobody said anything. Those words were akin to needles stabbing into their hearts. Before long, the various ambassadors entered the room.

“Find a spot and stand there. Since you’re here for the show, make sure to not get in the way.”

Marquis Xia smiled as he looked at the numerous experts gathered beneath the throne. This was the strength of Great Xia, a top three prefecture in the Human Realm. It was probably as strong as two regular prefectures combined.

At this moment, someone else entered the room. He said nothing and stood to the side with his arms crossed coldly.

Zhao Li!

Marquis Xia did not mind him. That was the descendant of the fourth principal and a grandmaster weaponsmith. Even though he wasn’t a Mountainsea, he was qualified to be here.

And after a short while, a different person arrived. The moment he arrived, his aura surged, breaking through into the Mountainsea Realm.

Chen Yong.

He had entered the Mountainsea Realm as easily as taking a meal. Like Zhao Li, he found a spot and stood there silently. Marquis Xia remained silent as he continued his wait.

After a while, more people arrived.

There were Mountainseas and Cloudbreaches in the group. Old Huang and his allies had arrived. Following behind them was a massive demonic beast. The beast was emanating an incomparably powerful aura.

But right after his arrival, the beast transformed into the form of a white-haired old man with a crooked back. Nevertheless, his aura remained powerful, surpassing even the aura of General Zhao, who was a Sunmoon.

“The mount of the second principal.”

Someone exclaimed in shock. Sure enough, the mount of the second principal was still alive. It was said that this mount had remained with the neutral faction after the passing of the second principal. Today, the neutral faction had actually invited him out. It had been a very long time since he was last seen in public.

He was a seventh-stage Sunmoon, a true super expert, and one of the pillars of the Great Xia Cultural Research Academy.

Even Wan Tiansheng gave the old man a bow, but the old man ignored him. He walked to the very front of the crowd and coughed before softly saying, “Greetings, Marquis. I’ll be bothering you today.”

“You’re too polite.”

Marquis Xia laughed, “Even you have decided to come? Things are going to get lively today.”

“I have no choice.”

The old man bowed and coughed again. Multiple elders of the neutral faction had requested him to leave seclusion and uphold justice for this matter. That was why he was here.

The old man said nothing else. Instead, he turned around to look at Elder Sun, who was standing at the back of the crowd, and smiled. Elder Sun was looking very pale. He knew that something bad was going to happen.

“Is everyone here?”

Marquis Xia smiled and said, “I believe everyone is already aware of what had happened. And all of you can hear the shouts outside. If you ask me, this isn’t a big deal. Su Yu is getting too arrogant due to the backing he has received. He should be killed for releasing that video. Today, we shall invade Great Ming, arrest Su Yu, and kill Zhu Tiandao. How dare they slander us! If we do this, this matter will end.

“How dare Zhu Tiandao kill Principal Jin and the other elders without my permission? He should be executed as well. Since all of you are here, let’s go. We’ll invade Great Ming, kill Su Yu, and eliminate Zhu Tiandao. After doing that, everyone will learn to shut up.”

“…”

Nobody said anything.

Marquis Xia smiled and asked, “Why isn’t anyone saying anything? Great Xia is very good at wars. If I’m being honest, a mere Great Ming can be flattened in a single day. We can then cut Zhu Tiandao’s head off. What can Great Ming King do? My father, Great Xia King, can cut Great Ming King’s head off as well. Ahhh, wouldn’t that be satisfying?”

Silence enveloped the area.Finnd 𝒏ew chapters on n𝒐ve/lbi𝒏(.)com

Once again, Marquis Xia asked, “What’s wrong? Why is everyone silent? What is a mere Su Yu? He is nothing. How dare he slander Sunmoons and Mountainseas? How dare he spread rumors about us? Someone like him should be killed. Why keep him around? Great Xia has been standing tall for hundreds of years. Are we supposed to apologize to a mere Su Yu? Are we supposed to give him an explanation? Is he worthy?”

With a grin, Marquis Xia said, “Since he has spread these rumors to sow chaos in Great Xia, he deserves death. He is clearly a member of the Myriad Race Cult. Does anyone disagree?”

“…”

“May I take this silence as your agreement? Sun Xiang, Wang Tong, Qian He, heed my command. Gather your people and capture Su Yu. I want to see his head in the Myriad Race Pit.”

The people whose names were called trembled with fear, not daring to utter even one word.

“What’s wrong?” Marquis Xia smiled, “You are all Mountainseas. Can’t you do something this small? Su Yu can kill Cloudbreaches, but can he kill Mountainseas? If Great Ming dares to interfere, we will have your backs. We will simply wipe them out. What are you afraid of?”

They said nothing.

At this time, Administrator Hu said, “Marquis, let’s stop wasting time. This is not a small issue. The ambassadors of the various prefectures and the two holy lands are here.”

Marquis Xia smiled and looked at the Knowledge Seeking Realm ambassador and said, “Zhou Yun, are you hearing the shouts outside? They are demanding the abolishment of the academies. What is the Knowledge Seeking Realm’s thought on this?”

“Marquis…” The ambassador solemnly said, “This is the fault of only a few individuals. How can we punish everyone else as well?”

“Cut the crap.” Marquis Xia leaned against the throne and said, “As usual, you’re incapable of saying anything useful. Why did the Knowledge Seeking Realm send a useless ambassador like you here? You, and the two fellows from Great Zhou, yes, all three of you should shut up. You never do what you should do. Instead, you spend all your time creating drama.”

“Marquis…”

Marquis Xia calmly said, “Did you not hear me? I told you to shut up. You used to be close to Jin Yuhui. I suspect you’re one of the culprits in this incident. Soldiers, drag him out and cut his head off. We’ll first use the blood of someone from the Knowledge Seeking Realm to placate the masses.”

“…”

Nobody moved.

Marquis Xia asked, “Do my words carry no weight anymore?”

At first, Zhou Yun thought that Marquis Xia was merely joking. But now, he was finally alarmed. A Sunmoon entered and grabbed him.

“Marquis…Marquis Xia…you…”

Marquis Xia indifferently said, “Execute him in front of the masses. Tell them that the Xia Family will deal with these criminals one by one. We’ll start with a Mountainsea. Tell them to calm down. Just say that this is one of the ringleaders.”

“Alright.”

The Sunmoon dragged Zhou Yun out. With panic on his face, Zhou Yun howled, “You dare? I’m—”

Bang!

The Sunmoon struck Zhou Yun with his palm, causing Zhou Yun to stop shouting and start coughing blood instead. All the surrounding experts trembled with fear.

“Marquis, this…”

They were all alarmed.

Marquis Xia indifferently said, “We’ll take it slow. I’ve been finding that fellow an eyesore for quite a while. He has been inciting disharmony in Great Xia. Does he believe that I have no proof of his wrongdoings? If the Knowledge Seeking Realm is unhappy, they are free to talk to my old man. Settle down, everyone. Nobody knows who will be the next to die.”

Shortly after, the Sunmoon appeared in a large public square. The scene was being broadcast to the people in all twenty-eight cities of Great Xia.

“As ordered by Marquis Xia, Knowledge Seeking Realm’s ambassador, seventh-stage Mountainsea, Zhou Yun, has been found guilty of instigating Jin Yuhui to betray humanity. He is to be executed immediately. Great Xia will not let injustice slide. All this chaos is merely due to some villains who are colluding with the cult to cause calamity and chaos among the populace.”

Splurt!

A head dropped to the ground while a fountain of blood splurted out. Silence descended.

But immediately after, cheers rang out, “Well done!”

“The marquis is wise!”

“I knew it! Those people had only done all that due to the instigations of some assholes! They all deserve death!”

“These animals deserve death!”

“The Knowledge Seeking Realm needs to give an explanation for this! Why did they allow someone like this to be among their ranks?”

“…”

The crowd was pleased. The Xia Family had indeed not disappointed them. The very first kill was a seventh-stage Mountainsea. And this matter was not going to end here.
