"This person is really bold! Using the blood of ten million people to set up the Great Death Restriction Formation. Grand Teacher, do you think this plan is feasible? "
Great Lifeless Forbidden Formation?
Zhongxuan's brow rose up like he was shocked. Then, he burst out laughing.
"It must have been given by Kong Xuan! Who knew that the Kong Family had such a secret technique! "
Looking at Yin Yu's expression, Zhongxuan knew that he had guessed correctly. Then, he shook his head, "These two people, Weihai is greedy and wants to bring glory to his family. Kong Xuan learned a strategy but was restricted by Kong Yao and couldn't use it. At this moment, he also wants to gain merit and suppress his cousin. With the two of them together, it is no wonder that would happen. However, the current situation isn't like 17,000 years ago! "
Yin Yu's eyelids closed when he heard that. Zhongxuan's words meant that he didn't agree.
He felt the same way. Since there was a precedent, how could the Night Demon Race not be wary?
Taking the blood of ten million people and causing such a huge commotion, how could the Night Demon Race not be alerted?
Then, Zhong Xuan changed the topic and chuckled.
"However, there is no harm in trying! Wei Hai was blessed with good fortune and was a person with great achievements. After all, the method he uses is the Ancient Blood Sacrifice Formation. Even if he doesn't succeed, he can cause them to suffer heavy injuries. If he succeeds, our Taishang will expand thousands of miles. If he fails, we will be able to retreat safely. "
As he said that, Zhongxuan bowed slightly, "This will depend on Your Majesty's intentions …"
"My intentions?"
Yin Yu hesitated when he heard that. A moment later, he laughed coldly, "Then let him try. However, no matter if he succeeds or not, we have to teach him a lesson. How audacious! "
When a general is outside, the Ruler's orders can't be taken …
Although this sentence was the correct path of war, the Ruler wouldn't be happy when he heard it.
If everyone was like that, the country wouldn't be a country and the Ruler's power would fall. Although he knew that Weihai didn't have any other thoughts, he couldn't punish him as a warning to others.
As for the ten million people in Huizhou, he didn't care at all. Not to mention these people, they were still citizens of other countries. Even if it was the Taishang, if he was able to use these sacrifices to defeat the Xeno-race, then he would be willing to do so as well.
If there was a subject who had to bear the evil reputation, as long as he was severely punished afterwards, he would still be a saint in the eyes of the people.
Hearing this, Zhong Xuan also stood up with a smile, but when he looked at Yin Yu again, he was suddenly stunned.
An undetectable grey aura suddenly appeared between Yin Yu's eyebrows.
He couldn't help but be startled. What was the reason?
This should have nothing to do with Yin Yu himself. Although it was not an ominous omen, it would certainly affect the Taishang's position.
But what was the reason? Could it be because of what he said just now?
"Crash!" A pair of ivory chopsticks suddenly fell on the ceramic tiles.
It was also in the Imperial Capital, not far from the imperial palace. Kong Li looked at the ground below in a slight daze.
This sudden turn of events also alarmed the members of the Kong Clan who were eating in the room. They all looked over in astonishment.
Kong Li didn't bother about them. He only felt his heart jump and was filled with terror.
"Father, are you feeling unwell?"
Kong Xu sat at the side with his identity as the son. At this moment, his eyes were filled with curiosity as he asked.
He knew that his father's cultivation had actually broken through to Peak Grade-9. He was just a step away from the Spirit Realm.
At such a realm, he should be immune to all diseases.
At this moment, he had already reconnected his broken arm and couldn't fight with others. He could only barely move about.
In his eyes, the one who dropped the chopsticks should be him and not his father who had such a high cultivation …
Kong Li's face was ashen white. All of a sudden, he didn't know what to say to the people in the room.
This was a bloodline warning, a sign of danger. Moreover, it was extremely dangerous!
"Are you worried about Third Brother?"
Kong Xu smiled, "Father, didn't you say that if I didn't have that bitch dragging me down. I would definitely be able to charge into the heavens and step into the clouds. Even if I became a Commander, it wouldn't be impossible. I would be able to protect the safety of our entire race. The few Uncles also said the same … "
Kong Li was startled. He had indeed said that before. However, now he felt that there was definitely something wrong with all of this. 'I must have missed something …'
He rushed out of the house like a madman. Kong Li raised his head to look at the starry sky.
Then, his eyes were filled with confusion. There was nothing unusual in the sky.
When he glanced at the Light Shaking Star in the north, he found that it was still as calm as ever. Looking at it now, it seemed a little dimmer.
For some reason, Kongli immediately relaxed. He couldn't help but feel mocking in his heart. How could that bitch have a chance to turn things around? He was certain that this woman's life was going to be a disaster and she would most likely die early. There was no mistake about it!
It was a pity for his younger brother. With his talent in algebra, if he could stay in the Kong family, he would definitely be able to contend against Zhong Xuan one day.
Had he lost his composure? How could he be so flustered?
But where did this omen come from? Could it be King Liao? Was it the Yang family?
Speaking of which, recently, due to Gantian Mountain sending envoys to question him. Many powers in the Imperial Court were working together to cause problems. The two families weren't having a good time recently.
It was currently dawn and the starry sky was slowly dimming. The sun rose up in the horizon and rays of sunlight shone down.
Kong Li just stood there in the courtyard, staring blankly into space as he sank into deep thought.
※ ※ ※
"Do you still remember what you said 10 days ago?"
The other people on the Nine-Tooth Giant Boat didn't pay much attention. Only Kong Yao, who received the wooden box, was slightly stunned.
Zong Shou didn't call her Concubine Yao but Qing.
It wasn't her husband calling her Concubine but a Ruler addressing his subjects.
What did that mean?
Who knows if it was an illusion, but she felt that the wooden box in her hand was extremely heavy. When she received it, she nearly couldn't hold onto it. He had no idea what was in it.
As for what she said on the flying shuttle 10 days ago …
"Of course, I remember!"
"It is good that you remember!"
Zong Shou smiled, following which his expression turned solemn, "From today on, the Left and Right Pillar Generals will be removed and the Privy Court and Five Army Inspection Division will be set up. The Privy Court will be responsible for moving troops, making plans, military law, and managing the promotion and demotion of Grade 3 and below officials. The Five Army Inspection Division will be responsible for training troops, managing troops, and commanding troops during war. General Qiu Wei has great achievements and can be promoted to Country Protecting Duke, the first Head Envoy of the Privy Court. Zong Gang will make West Marquis the Right Army Inspection Division. "
Everyone's expression turned solemn when they heard that, bowing respectfully as they listened to the orders. At this moment, when they heard Zong Shou's words, they didn't feel surprised.
The Left and Right Pillar Generals were set up by Zong Weiran to manage the troops.
In the past, when Gantian Country was small, it was okay. Now, they had already unified Donglin.
These two positions had a lot of power and had a lot of work to do.
When Zong Shou was there, it was still okay. However, if it was another ruler, Zong Gang and Qiu Wei wouldn't be the Pillar General. If they had any thoughts of betrayal, it would shake the foundations of the country.
Similar to the civil servants of the six ministries, removing these two positions and replacing them with military officials was something that everyone had been looking forward to for a long time.
Even Zong Gang himself was prepared and knew that his position as the Right Pillar General wouldn't last long.
When he heard that, not only was he not shocked, but he was happy instead. During these few days, he had been annoyed by those complicated military matters.
When everyone heard that, they were startled. Qiu Wei being the Privy Court Head Envoy was what everyone wanted. In Gantian Mountain, only he had the right to protect the country. This Pillar Qiu really had the ability to protect the country!
However, Zong Gang's appointment was surprising. Since there was a right, then there was definitely a left. The Five Army Inspection Division would definitely be split into the middle, left, right, front, and back. The middle army should be the most important and the head of all the inspectors.
Zong Gang wasn't a talented general and was appointed as the Right Army Inspector. It was because of his experience and military merits as well as his loyalty.
But who was this Inspector of the Middle Army? Hu Qianqiu or Chai Yuan? Zong Yuan had the ability and had a huge reputation in Gantian Mountain. However, his experience was a little lacking.
Zong Gang himself didn't care much about it. As long as he could lead the army, it was okay. However, he was also curious as to who exactly was the person who could suppress him.
Or could it be that the Left and Middle Army Inspectors were vacant?
However, everyone felt that Sōmorime's gaze wasn't right. He was smiling as he looked at Kong Yao's jade hands.
This ruler was really perverted! What was there to look at about a pair of hands?
Everyone felt disdain in their hearts. However, they had an idea. Their eyes followed Sōmorime's gaze and looked over.
Kong Yao's expression changed as she looked at her hands in disbelief.
Frowning, Kong Yao opened this expensive red wooden box.
She saw that there were only two things within. One was a rolled up imperial decree and the other was a purple-gold seal.
At this moment, everyone's expressions were slightly weird. Kong Yao's hands trembled as she picked up the golden seal.
When he flipped it open, he saw the words' Left Army Inspector in front of the Palace 'engraved in gold.
She used her true qi to draw and move. Looking closely, it was an official decree.
It was full of praises for her. Kong Yao didn't care about all this. These formulaic sentences had no meaning and couldn't be treated as real.
What made her lose her focus were the last two sentences.
Today, Kong Yao will be the Left Army Inspector in charge of the Palace …
The date at the bottom was ten over days ago. It should be that Zong Shou had already prepared it when he first came to Lianyun Island.
Speaking of which, at that time, Zong Shou had already asked her to be the Left Army?
Gantian Mountain now had four hundred towns. If they were split into five, they would have eight hundred thousand troops, all of them elites!
She was stunned for a moment. Then, Kong Yao looked at Zong Shou in disbelief.
Everything that happened today was like a dream. She didn't expect that she would have a chance to lead an army!
She suddenly thought back to not long ago at the peak of Gantian Mountain. The words that Xuanyuan Yiren said to her, "My husband once told me that Sister Kong's ability to lead troops might not be as good as Zong Yuan and Pillar Qiu's, but you are a commander and can take charge of an area." Zong Yuan could lead troops, but Sister Kong could lead generals. Kong Yao's abilities could only be displayed when she commanded an army of thousands of men and horses!
She originally thought that it was a joke. Only now did she know that Zong Shou really saw it that way. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
