The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire - Chapter 466

[Chapter 461 Contempt]

This Taoist priest, he invited everyone to eat pears, seems to have grown it by casting a spell, but in fact it was just a trick to distribute the pears that the hawker wanted to sell to everyone, in order to avenge the hawker’s miserliness.

The people around are all mortals with naked eyes, even if they have some cultivation, they are not as high as that Taoist priest, so they cannot see it.

But who are these people like Zhong Yu? The strong Zhong Yu has a seventh-order cultivation base, and people like Gai Nie also have a sixth-order level. Even if some of the poorest followers around have a fifth-order level, how can they not see through this little trick? .

It was just such a small method, but it caused dissatisfaction among Zhongyu, Donghuang Taiyi, Gai Nie and others.

Originally, it was entangled and aggressive, causing uproar in the downtown area and disrupting the surrounding order. It has already violated the laws of the empire and should be punished.

But Nian has some cultivation bases in that Taoist priest, and the peddler is really stingy, and it’s okay to give a little punishment.

Zhong Yu came out to play this time, but he had no intention of taking care of it, and planned to take a look and leave.

But the Taoist priest is now openly taking action in the public, using Taoism to steal other people’s money and confuse pedestrians. The culpability is much heavier than disturbing the street order, but it is a serious crime to kill the head and pour blood, and hang it at the mouth of the food market to show the public for several days.

For the stability of the imperial order, Zhong Yu had already issued orders several times, prohibiting any cultivator from exerting power in the city, and violators would be severely punished.

This order has been emphasized several times, and it has long been implemented across the country, and a large number of law enforcement teams have been arranged to inspect, intending to force those lawless cultivators to obey.

And Jiangdu City, as the imperial capital, has been enforced much stronger. In the past few months, countless armies patrolled the city and arrested an unknown number of people who dared to violate the ban by force.

There are still dozens of corpses of criminals who resisted and were later beheaded on the spot in Naishikou.

Now, after some rectification, the order has been restored a little, and there are fewer people who dare to be presumptuous, and the patrol force is a little looser.

There is this Taoist priest who dares to openly take action and use Taoism to seize other people’s property in the busy city. He simply ignores the previous laws and shocks of the empire, and despises the majesty of the empire.

Such a daring act, how not to make Zhong Yu angry, this is ignoring what he said before and provoking his authority.

“What a daring Taoist priest, who dares to cast magic tricks in the busy city, have you forgotten the thousands of monsters who were executed before?”

When the people around heard Zhong Yu’s stern shout, a coldness poured out of their minds, and their thoughts suddenly came to their senses.

At this time, I turned my head and saw that there were still some pear trees in front of me. There was only a long erected burden, and on the burden were two pear baskets that were hung up. Take it away and eat it, nothing.

Who doesn’t know now that the Taoist priest gave them food just now, and they ate the Sydney pears that the hawker in front of them picked to sell.

The vendor turned around and looked at his car, but found that the baskets of Sydney pears he had picked up were gone, and even the handlebar of his car was broken, and the ballast was newly cut off.

He didn’t even know that he was being teased by the Taoist priest, so he was so annoyed that he hurried to grab him and demanded compensation.

The Taoist priest was entangled by the hawker, but he just sneered and ignored it, instead staring at the source of the sound, watching Zhong Yu and others, and said, “What a bold person, he dares to take care of my business, and he is impatient to live. Is it?”

“Up to now, you still dare to be so rampant, do you really think that the laws of our empire are not there? Not long ago, His Majesty the Emperor gave three orders and five appeals, strictly ordering practitioners to perform magic laws in the city, and those who violated it would be executed. It has only been a few months now. , There are still dozens of demon corpses hanging on Caishikou, and you, a Taoist priest, dare to openly practice demons, disturb the order of the streets, and steal other people’s property, and you deserve to die.” Zhong Yu reprimanded.

“It’s nothing but a rebel. He doesn’t stop stealing the throne, and he dares to do things backwards, openly oppressing me and other moral lords, and provoking the anger of the public. The period of defeat is not far away.”

The surrounding pedestrians heard the Taoist priest’s wild words, the content was extremely rebellious, and all of them were so frightened that their faces suddenly changed, and they quickly retreated away from here.

Even the peddler who was distressed about his belongings didn’t dare to stay any longer, he quickly let go of the Taoist priest’s hand and backed away.

This place is at the foot of the emperor and the capital of the Great Imperial Kingdom.

The people in the city have a reverence for the imperial power, which can be said to be far more than people from all over the world.

And the sense of glory for himself as a citizen of the imperial capital is also rising day by day, and gradually he has a sense of superiority compared to people in other places.

Now that I heard that this Taoist priest was about to say that he was going to rebel, everyone was terrified.

Especially those who ate Sydney, for fear that one of them would be implicated, and they would also be arrested by the government and punished for the crime of being implicated.

“What an arrogant and ignorant person, even in the imperial capital, he dares to make such a rant .

Although Zhong Yu had known for a long time, because of his birth identity as a rebel, he was not recognized by aristocratic families and sectarians everywhere.

Except for a few forces that want to win a chance to get ahead, there are few big families and sects that have truly passed on for thousands of years.

Coupled with the officials sent by Zhong Yu, they severely cracked down on local mergers, punished many tyrants and bad men on the evil side, and seriously offended the interests of the grassroots in these places, causing them to become more dissatisfied.

Now there are regulations that prohibit the use of extraordinary powers in the city, which offends those sectarians who master high-end power, causing their dissatisfaction.

From ancient times to the present, these sectarian children with high power have always relied on their own superhuman strength and backed up the sects with huge energy, and acted according to their own liking arbitrarily, ignoring local officials at all. , The decrees of the mortal dynasty.

What’s more, even taking the initiative to take action against court officials is almost the same as rebellion, which is one of the sources of chaos in various places.

From the daring actions of this Taoist priest in front of him, we can see that these sect disciples and Buddhism and Taoism have no scruples.

“It seems that the imperial court’s control over you outsiders is too lax. It should be rectified and dealt with a group of rebellious people like you. Only then can the world be peaceful and there will be less turmoil. .” Zhong Yu’s heart was full of anger, and he had already made up his mind to rectify these outsiders.

Before, because he was concerned about the powerful power possessed by those sects, he did not dare to take the initiative, for fear of causing their dissatisfaction and setting off a rebellion within the empire.

After all, most of those sects have a sixth-order powerhouse, and there are even a lot of seventh-order ones, so it is not so easy to deal with.
