Pausing for a moment, Zhao Mingcong said, "Heaven's Mandate, please pass down an order. Today, we learned that South Sky City and Sky Demoness City have signed a contract. They are truly audacious. South Sky City's Lord, South Protecting King Ye Tian Ze, should be beheaded!"
At this point, Zhao Mingcong glanced at the crowd, especially at Ye Tianze. He seemed to be telling him that the Human Emperor was furious.
However, his gaze gave the crowd an illusion that they were gloating over his misfortune. Some of them even wanted to execute him on the spot.
"Yes! Zhennan Prince may not have the right to sign the contract, but I am very happy to see it. I hereby order the Angel to announce the contract to the world. "
As Zhao Mingcong spoke, he handed the Jade Slips to Ye Tianze and said, "Receive the edict."
The people kneeling on the ground were all stunned. Xuan Sect Master asked, "What? That's it? "
Zhao Mingcong said, "What else do you think it is? This is the Human Emperor's edict. Do you still want to doubt it? "
Xuan Sect Master naturally did not dare to doubt it. The Angel's identity and the Human Emperor's edict were limited. The Human Emperor's dignity could not be violated. In this world, no one dared to impersonate an Angel, much less read a fake Human Emperor's edict.
Not to mention in front of Wu Shenkong, the Palace Lord of the Human Emperor Palace.
However... Ye Tianze had signed an unfair contract with the Fey Clan. How could the Human Emperor not execute him?
"His Majesty the Human Sovereign is being too biased towards him. He has committed the crime of betraying the human race. Furthermore … he has colluded with the Monster Race. Lord Angel, does the Human Sovereign really not have any other orders?" Xuan Sect's Grandmaster asked.
The rest of the people looked at Zhao Mingcong anxiously. If Ye Tianze was not punished, wouldn't the Three Sects and Seven Schools and the Three Aristocratic Families suffer a great loss this time?
"Oh, I forgot. There's one more thing. His Majesty the Human Emperor has asked me to read the contents of the contract in Zhou Tian City. He has already informed the people of the world," said Zhao Mingcong. "His Majesty also said that I should act as I see fit."
When everyone heard this, hope appeared on their despairing faces. Wasn't this just asking Zhao Mingcong to deal with Ye Tianze?
Zhao Mingcong took out the contract and read it out loud when he saw everyone's expectant gaze.
"First, demons are not allowed to invade Zhu Que City. Second …"
There were a total of ten clauses in the contract. When Zhao Mingcong finished reading the first clause, everyone present felt that something was wrong. Wasn't this an unfair contract?
Why did the first rule state that demons were not allowed to invade Zhu Que City?
"Sir, did you read it wrongly? How could this be an unfair contract?" The Martial Sect Sect Leader asked.
"You didn't read it wrong. It's written in the contract." Zhao Mingcong frowned. He didn't like to be interrupted.
Everyone was dumbfounded. If Zhao Mingcong wasn't an angel, they would have snatched the contract from him to verify it.
"The first clause might be a condition given by the demons. There must be something wrong with the rest!" The experts from the various factions were convinced.
However, as Zhao Mingcong continued reading, everyone present was stunned. He read five clauses in a row and all of them were beneficial to humans. Some of them were even more unbelievable.
Furthermore, one of the clauses was for Heaven Fey City to provide resources for ten million people for a year!
In their impression, only humans would offer sacrifices to the demons. How could the demons offer sacrifices to the humans? Furthermore … it was an order!
The Xuan Sect Sect Leader couldn't take it any longer. He interrupted, "Sir Angel, it's not that I don't believe you, but the contract you read doesn't make sense at all. Why would the demons compromise? Since it's an unfair contract, it should be us humans … "
With someone taking the lead, the rest of the people echoed, full of suspicion.
Zhao Mingcong was infuriated. He put away the contract and interrupted, "It should be us humans groveling and offering sacrifices to the demons, right?"
"I …" The Xuan Sect Sect Leader didn't dare to continue, but his expression said that it was only right.
"That's not what the Xuan Sect Leader meant. It's just that … the contract you read doesn't make sense at all." The Wu Sect Leader said, "Sir Angel, please don't joke with us. Take out the real contract and read it."
Zhao Mingcong threw the contract aside and said, "Why don't you read it?"
The Wu Sect Leader took the contract. He thought that Zhao Mingcong didn't read the real contract, so he looked at it awkwardly.
However, after reading the first few lines, his expression changed completely. He was stunned on the spot. He was a magnate, but when he saw the contract, he couldn't come back to his senses.
"Why aren't you reading it?" Zhao Mingcong said, "Read it for me."
The Wu Sect Leader's hand trembled. He suddenly looked at Ye Tianze and said, "You tricked us!"
The Xuan Sect Leader felt that something was wrong. He immediately took the contract and looked at it carefully. His expression turned ugly.
The two of them had the same expression. They looked at Ye Tianze with grief and anger.
"We did sign an unfair contract, but … who told you that it's unfair to the human race?" Ye Tianze said with a smile.
"No, this can't be true. This can't be true. How could the demon race compromise like this? The demon race …" The Wu Sect Leader didn't believe it.
Then, the Yun Sect Vice Sect Leader and the other Sect Leaders of the Seven Sects also took the contract. After they read it, the entire Zhou Tian City fell silent.
The higher-ups of the various factions were stunned. The content was just as Ye Tianze said. It was an unfair contract, but it was only unfair to the demon race.
In other words, not only was Ye Tianze not guilty, he even made a great contribution. He just hid the truth!
The juniors of the various sects didn't understand why the higher-ups were doing this, but they felt that something was wrong.
When the contract was passed to the Gong Family Head, Wu Shenkong walked in the air and took the contract back. "Have you seen enough?"
The Gong Family Head was silent. Of course, he hadn't seen enough. He couldn't wait to replace the words "demon race" and "human race" on the contract.
That would make more sense!
Wu Shenkong didn't give him the chance. He took the contract and poured spiritual energy into his throat. He read the ten terms of the contract out loud in front of everyone.
The gathering of the various aristocratic families, the Three Sects, and Seven Schools at the top of Zhou Tian City attracted a lot of people.
When Wu Shenkong read the contract, the entire Zhou Tian City fell silent. It was like they were in a dream.
"His Majesty the Human Emperor will read it personally and announce it to the world. It can't be fake!" Wu Shenkong added at the end. "From now on, the Human Emperor Palace will announce the contents of the contract to all the Human Emperors in the Southern Region!"
After a short silence, Zhou Tian City boiled over. It felt like a meat pie had fallen from the sky after starving for ten days.
