As the sound of the horse's hooves faded away, the once neat bluestone slabs were left in a mess. In truth, Zhang Weiyu was not a ruthless person. Those who had interacted with him knew that if Zhang Weiyu was ruthless, Mituryū Kanao's position as commander-in-chief would not have a chance with Li Liang.
Wasn't Li Liang more suitable for this role than Zhang Weiyu because he was more ruthless than Zhang Weiyu?
Whether it was Li Liang, Zhang Weiyu, or even Lü Shu, they all understood the principle of mercy not leading an army.
They let Li Liang take on this role not because they were bloodthirsty, but because they knew too well that in this war, only by being as ruthless as the enemy could one survive to the end.
If Lü Shu had to choose between Mituryū Kanao's life and the lives of others, he would undoubtedly choose the former.
Now, Mituryū Kanao's every move had to be ruthless enough to intimidate those who were ready to make a move, so that they would only dare to crawl on the ground and bow their heads in submission!
However, when those people heard the sound of the horse's hooves moving away, they all looked up. They were shocked to see a group of people with their hands tied behind the back of the Flaming Cloud Colts, who were dressed in black armor and riding on Flaming Cloud Colts.
Those people's hands were tied, and their mouths were stuffed with cloth to prevent them from cursing.
The horses were not moving fast, just enough for these people to barely keep up.
In the end, the Inner Palace Guards did not drag these people to the ground like Duanmu Huangqi, who eventually turned them into bloody gourds.
They still retained a trace of compassion in their hearts, and only allowed these people to run wildly behind them.
However, Zhang Weiyu and the others felt that their mercy would end here. These rich families should have thought of this when they led their troops to Xi Province.
In this blood-red world, losers had to accept punishment. When these aristocratic families of the Royal City transferred their direct descendants and assets out, they wanted to leave a way out for themselves. If they really had to face Lv Shugang head-on, they would have a way out to make a comeback.
These direct descendants carried a large number of cultivation resources and assets in their spatial equipment. This was the capital for their comeback.
However, how could Lü Shu leave them a way out? He, Lü Shu, had risked everything to end the feud with Lü Zhou. How could others have a way out?
Even so, he had never thought of killing these people directly. When Li Liang found out about Lü Shu's decision, he sighed at the side but did not say anything in the end. After all, whether these people lived or died would not affect the overall situation.
Someone suddenly recognized the prisoners running behind the horses. "Those are the elites of the Li Clan's younger generation. Three of them are inside, and one of them caused a phenomenon that spanned fifteen li when he ascended to the first grade!"
Three of them are among them. When one of them advanced to the first grade, his Worldly Anomaly spanned 15 li! " Someone exclaimed, "Oh my god, some time ago, some people guessed that the wealthy families had secretly sent them out. I didn't expect that they would all be captured by the Wu Weijun!"
Someone exclaimed. "Heavens, some people guessed that the rich families had secretly sent them out. I didn't expect that they would all be captured by Wu Weijun!"
"He's cutting off the rich families' escape routes. He's not leaving them any hope at all!"
Zhang Weiyu, who was riding on his horse, laughed coldly when he heard the laments of these people. "Even Charcoal's Heaven and Earth Anomaly is sixteen li wide. These so-called prodigies of the capital can't even compare to Charcoal …"
"Old Zhang, how many li was your Worldly Anomaly?" someone asked curiously.
Zhang Weiyu held it in for a long time. "The King is still waiting for us! Let's not talk about this nonsense! "
"Hahaha, I remember very clearly that your Worldly Anomaly only spanned 15 li. Aren't you still inferior to Li Heitan?" Someone laughed loudly in the communication channel.
"Piss off, piss off," Zhang Weiyu said angrily.
But then again, although Li Heitan looked simple-minded, he was indeed more talented than most people. When he was living in Azure Dragon Village, it was only because he didn't have any skills or resources.
Sometimes, when social classes were solidified, it was difficult for the people at the bottom to make a leap. This was because the people at the top had a firm grasp on the resources. To make a leap was equivalent to snatching food from a tiger's mouth!
The heads of the rich families in the Peach Blossom Guild also heard the sound of hooves. At this time, only Lü Shu's men dared to ride horses in the Royal City.
Previously, when Lü Shu said that his men had not arrived, everyone panicked because they had a guilty conscience!
And now, it seemed that the thing they were most worried about had really happened. Zhang Weiyu and the others rode into the Peach Blossom Guild. When the heads of the rich families saw the young men following behind the horses, they became anxious. Without a doubt, all the direct descendants that they had sent away were here!
Ever since Lü Shu parted ways with Mituryū Kanao, Zhang Weiyu and the others had also ridden the Flaming Cloud Colts that Lü Shu had given them and rushed to various places in Lü Zhou at top speed. Their goal was to capture all the direct descendants of the rich families who had secretly escaped.
There was no way they could play a trick in front of Lü Shu!
Lü Shu wanted to cut off all their escape routes. He wanted these so-called rich families to understand a simple truth: Do not participate in this war, because they could not afford to!
Zhang Weiyu and the others dismounted and brought those so-called geniuses of the rich families to Lü Shu. Lü Shu sat on a chair that Li Heitan had brought over and said calmly, "You want to secretly send them away? Do you think that even if you offend us, you can still make a comeback? Why are all the good things being taken away by you? All the land under the heavens belongs to the King, and all those who live on the shores of the land belong to the King. Where can you run to? "
At this time, Lü Shu no longer avoided anything. He needed the identity of the King, because he wanted to use this identity to face the enemies of the world!
The head of the Song Clan knelt in front of Lü Shu with a plop and said sorrowfully, "Your Majesty, please spare my life!"
Now that there was no way out, if they still did not submit now, their entire clan would probably be uprooted! They did not know why Lü Shu had become the King, nor did they know what was the secret behind this, but reality had already explained everything. Sun Xiuwen had already walked ahead of them!
With the head of the Song Clan taking the lead, the other clan heads had no choice but to submit. In an instant, the people of the Royal Academy saw these important figures all kneeling in front of Lü Shu, crying out in unison, "Your Majesty, please spare my life!"
Lü Shu said calmly, "Do you know what will happen if you have any thoughts of rebelling after today's kowtow?"
The head of the Song Clan said earnestly, "If we have any thoughts of rebelling today, we will definitely be trampled by our King's Wu Weijun, and not even our bones will be left."
The commoners saw the great clans of the Royal City as towering and ferocious behemoths, but these so-called ferocious beasts could only crawl in front of Lü Shu. Lü Shu suddenly felt a little emotional. Power was indeed a man's aphrodisiac, but this was not his path, and he was not willing to take this path.
Other people's aphrodisiac was just his poison.
Lü Shu thought about it and said, "I want to correct one thing. They are no longer called Wu Weijun, but Mituryū Kanao."
