Officers wearing the uniform of the Dream Slayer Army kept jumping out to block their way! "What kind of crime did I commit? What crime did my family commit? "
"I fought a bloody battle in the Black Wind Gorge. I died in the Heaven Eye Mountain. I killed three hundred enemies in the Soul-Locking River. I made contributions to the Heavenly Court. I shed blood for His Majesty. I made contributions and worked hard. I am not guilty! Let go of my family! Let go of my family! "
The Black Wind Gorge, the Heaven Eye Mountain, and the Soul-locking River were the three most praiseworthy battles in Meng Wuya's life. Back then, when Mo Yuntian's forces rebelled, Meng Wuya led the army to battle. The three great battles established his invincible reputation in the military.
He and the army he led forced all the opposing forces to a dead end.
The name "Dream Slayer Army" was formed from then on.
The Dream Slayer Army destroyed the dreams of all the rebels!
However, these officers were unable to save their loved ones after their screams. Instead, they were treated even more cruelly. Whenever one of them questioned them, countless soldiers would swarm out and capture them. They would kick them to the ground and tie them up. Before they could tie them up, their faces were slapped so hard that it was unbearable to look at. There were also countless rods that hit him where the pain was the most intense …
These iron-blooded soldiers, who had achieved great military exploits in the past, were dragged into the prison. Their arms or legs had long been smashed, and they were no longer in human form!
These loyal and courageous soldiers only claimed that they were wronged, but none of them tried to resist with force.
On the second day, the search and capture continued.
The entire Heavenly Court of Mo Yun and the thirty big cities outside the Imperial City were all carrying out the same thing.
Meng Wuya had been through hundreds of battles and made countless contributions. The Dream Slayer Army he led also rose in status. They moved their families from the remote areas to the most prosperous cities.
This was an honor specially granted by the Heavenly Emperor of Mo Yun. It was an honor that everyone in the military was envious of.
However, the situation had changed. This honor had become a death sentence with nowhere to run! The target was clear.
As more and more people were arrested, the military was in a state of panic.
Especially when they saw that some deputy generals, deputy generals, and even the vanguard of the main force were all killed and sent to prison, the officers on Mu Tianlan's side finally began to stir.
He could only watch helplessly as his brother's family was captured and abused. He didn't even have the chance to try and save them!
This kind of helplessness was definitely not something a normal person could endure.
After the incident, Mu Tianlan had already knelt in front of the Moyuntian Imperial Palace for two days and two nights, begging Yuan Tianjie to take back his order. Kneeling with him were almost all of Mo Yuntian's military pillars and upper echelons.
Some officials even knelt down, hoping that their actions would give the Dream Slayer Army a chance to survive.
However, Yuan Tianjie didn't pay attention to these people's advice.
At this moment, Yuan Tianjie and his beloved concubine were mourning their lost love in the mourning hall of the Tai Yuan Different Road. This concubine is Yuan Shetu's birth mother.
He completely turned a deaf ear to the tsunami of pleading voices outside.
"What is His Majesty doing?" A white-bearded old official asked angrily, "So many people are crying and begging. Can't His Majesty hear it? He's completely indifferent?! "
The others were stunned.
No one knew why.
The chief steward of the Imperial Palace had known Mu Tianlan for a long time and had some friendship. Seeing this situation, he felt really uncomfortable. He quietly came to General Mu and transmitted his voice, "General Mu, you don't have to kneel anymore. Even if you kneel, it's useless … His Majesty is now summoning the soul of His Highness … He's now in the mourning hall and won't care about anything that happens here …"
As soon as this sentence came out, Mu Tianlan felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. With the support of his profound cultivation, even though he had been kneeling for two days, his knees were still flexible. However, this sudden sentence made his knees stiffen instantly, and he could barely move.
For Yuan Shetu's accidental death, Yuan Tianjie hated Chu Yang the most. But now, other than Chu Yang, Yuan Tianjie hated Meng Wuya the most.
At this moment, everyone was pleading for Meng Wuya outside, but Yuan Tianjie was summoning the soul of Yuan Shetu … Facing his beloved memorial tablet, Yuan Tianjie only became angrier.
If it were any other time, there might be a chance to be lenient. But now, the more people pleaded for mercy, the more the Dream Slayer Army would be pushed one step closer to death.
It would only cause the opposite effect! And it wouldn't be of any use at all.
"Who came up with this bad idea for His Majesty? Summoning the soul? Summoning what soul? The Tai Yuan Shetu was killed by Chu Yang. His soul was scattered and his body and spirit were destroyed. What soul can he summon? "Mu Tianlan's eyes were like a hawk's. Yuan Shetu died and there was a mourning hall. His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor said, "If Chu Yang doesn't die, the mourning hall won't be removed!"
He must use Chu Yang's head to pay tribute to his love that died in vain!
"It's Marshal Yu's suggestion." The Minister of Imperial Household was an old eunuch with a white face. He whispered, "Marshal Yu said that the Tai Yuan Shetu's soul might not be completely destroyed. If His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor can use his supreme martial arts to perform the Heaven Ten Earths Soul Searching Attack in the Great Mourning Hall, he might be able to summon the remnant soul of the Tai Yuan Shetu and return. And as long as there's a little remnant soul, it can be protected by the light of the Heavenly Emperor and enter the cycle of reincarnation. There'll still be a day when you reunite with your father … "
Mu Tianlan smashed his fist hard on the ground.
This punch clearly didn't use any cultivation, but it still made a big hole in the solid ground that was as hard as star steel.
"Ridiculous!" Mu Tianlan scolded angrily.
The Heaven Ten Earths Soul Searching Technique did have such a mysterious technique. What Marshal Yu said did indeed exist.
But the premise was that Yuan Shetu's death must be near. And the current situation was that Yuan Shetu died in the Eastern Royal Heaven! For Yuan Tianzhi, it was already too far away to do anything. It was impossible for him to turn the tide.
What's more, the Tai Yuan Shetu had already been dead for more than half a year. Only now did he think of summoning the soul? Although it was still possible in theory, there was no chance at all in practice.
Moreover, after confirming that Yuan Shetu's soul had been destroyed, Yuan Tianzhi had already tried to summon his soul once. That time, it was completely useless. In other words, Yuan Shetu's soul had truly been destroyed, and not even a bit of his soul was left. No matter how much he tried to summon his soul, it would only be a futile effort and completely useless.
"Is His Majesty really muddle-headed?" Mu Tianlan's chest heaved up and down. His beard moved without wind. He was so anxious that he couldn't say anything.
"His Majesty's action is still out of love … Even though he knows it's impossible, he still has to try. Just in case." The Minister of Imperial Household sighed deeply.
Mu Tianlan suddenly came to a realization.
Marshal Yu didn't mention this matter at this time simply to summon the soul of the Tai Yuan Shetu!
Instead, it completely blocked the path of pleading for mercy for the Dream Slayer Army!
As long as Yuan Shetu was in the mourning hall, Yuan Tianzhi's hatred would be infinitely magnified. He would even lose his rationality and the ability to make decisions.
In this way, any words of pleading for Meng Wuya would sound like the tragic death of love in Yuan Tianzhi's ears.
Every word of such pleading would stimulate the pain of loss in Yuan Tianzhi's heart. Every pleading would push the situation of Meng Wuya and the Dream Slayer Army one step closer to an even more unbearable place.
This thought was simply vicious to the extreme.
However, Marshal Yu had grasped the thoughts of a parent. Although Yuan Tianzhi also knew that this method wouldn't work and that it would be in vain, he would still try his best to give it a try for peace of mind. What if there really was a chance?!
Mu Tianlan told everyone about this situation. Everyone looked up to the sky and sighed.
Everyone stood up one after another.
At this moment, the originally well-intentioned pleading had turned into adding insult to injury.
However, if they didn't plead for mercy, would they just watch these loyal soldiers die unjustly in prison?
Everyone looked at each other. They were all at their wits' end.
Mu Tianlan took a few steps back and looked at a certain direction in the palace with a somewhat desolate expression.
Over there, there was a faint smell of cigarette smoke. Ordinary people would not be able to detect it at such a distance, but Mu Tianlan could accurately sense it.
There, there was the place where His Majesty the Celestial Emperor was summoning souls.
The aura there was completely peaceful. There was no sign of fluctuation at all.
Obviously, His Majesty's thoughts didn't move at all. He simply didn't care about how many officials of the country were kneeling and crying blood and pleading.
Mu Tianlan looked at it deeply for a while. Finally, he straightened up and turned to leave.
The heavy snow was still drifting in the air. Mu Tianlan's departing figure seemed to be carrying the heavy snow all over the sky.
He didn't look back. He walked forward with unusual firmness.
His footsteps became faster and faster.
From beginning to end, he didn't say a word.
As the others watched Marshal Mu leave, their faces were filled with grief and grief.
"What, Meng Wuya's family can't be found? Also, the families of those trusted generals who had been with him had all gone missing? There's no harvest at all?! " Yu Chi looked furiously at the face of the soldier who came to report the news. His face was unusually ferocious. He almost wanted to swallow the person in one bite.
"We really can't find them." The general said carefully in a low voice, "It is said that … they all moved away a month and a half ago."
"They all moved away a month and a half ago …" Yu Chi narrowed his eyes and then said, "I see. You continue to search for the other core soldiers of the Dream Slayer Army and their families, especially Meng Wuya's trusted aides … As for those who have been confirmed to have left, I will deal with them personally."
"Yes."
The officer saluted and walked out.
Yu Chi's calm face slowly turned gloomy, and there was a hint of danger.
The next moment, he clapped his hands and said in a deep voice, "Men."
