A Chaotic Situation
Compared to them, who had a well-thought-out plan and were advancing step by step, the hearts of the people below them were in chaos.
Some regretted, some were confused, some were surprised and some were ambitious.
Even the man who first proposed to leave the Holy Sanctum was dumbfounded at this moment.
"How, how can we do this?"
He had thought that he had the upper hand. Even if he could not leave the Holy Temple today, he would still be able to gain some benefits from it.
He did not expect that he would become the target of public criticism in the blink of an eye.
A family head who had been standing behind him and supporting him tugged on his sleeve and warned him fiercely, "I'm telling you, if this matter isn't handled well, those bastards in my family will definitely come out and cause trouble. You promised me that if I support you, you'll let me sit firmly in the position of family head! If this matter is not handled well, I will not let you off! "
The leader of the group was also very annoyed.
He was even more resentful of Long Tianhao and the others who had transferred the impact of this matter to him.
He gritted his teeth. Now that things had come to this, he had to take the risk.
He gave a look to a few people in the crowd. They were experts that he had spent a lot of effort to get back. They were originally used to prevent the Divine Temple from acting out of desperation, and would only be used to save his life.
He did not expect that there would be such a big change today, so he had to use them for other purposes.
Those people understood what he meant. They spread out and quietly approached the edge of the platform.
They looked around and saw that they were surrounded by people from the Holy Temple. Even if they risked their lives, they would not be able to break through the defense.
Fortunately, it seemed that the employer wanted to destroy the bamboo slips.
They thought for a while and gestured to their companions.
Soon enough, one of them took out a Sky Blast Bomb from his bag.
Although it was a small one, it was powerful enough to break a person's arm or leg.
Under the cover of the crowd, that person threw it directly at Long Tianhao.
"Be careful!"
Lin Mengya was the first to realize his intention. She pushed Long Tianhao aside and lay on the ground.
With a loud bang, the Sky Bomb exploded.
But Lin Mengya did not feel anything wrong. Even the sound seemed to be a little far away from her.
She raised her head cautiously and saw a group of people protecting her.
Outside the human wall, Long Tianhao looked at her helplessly, and then slowly got up from the ground.
In fact, he was already prepared, but he didn't expect his wife's reaction to be even bigger. He had always been defenseless against her. Although the Sky Shaking Thunder was kicked away, he was pushed to the ground by his wife.
"Madam." Long Tianhao patted off the dust on his clothes. "If this was the wedding night, your husband would definitely not refuse you. But this is outside. Can Madam be a little patient for the time being?"
What kind of words were those?
Lin Mengya was so angry that she almost vomited blood.
She was clearly worried about him, which was why she chose to protect him at the first moment.
Alright, she admitted that she was a little irrational just now.
Therefore, Lin Mengya just glared at him as a warning.
It was rare for Long Tianhao to tease his wife like this, but he also knew that it was time to stop.
He smiled at his wife and turned around with a cold expression.
"Very good. First, you did not respect Temple, then disobeyed Temple's orders, and now you still want it?
You want to murder the Lord of Temple? Everyone, did you hear what I said just now? "
The supporters, who were already eager to try, immediately responded.
"Please give us your orders, Lord!"
Long Tianhao's face darkened and the smile on his face revealed a hint of cruelty.
"From today onwards, I will expel these people from Temple, and all the properties they owe Temple will be recovered by you. No matter who it is, as long as they can get back the Temple's properties and sign a new contract with Temple, they will belong to you. Temple will not take a single cent!"
Instantly, the supporters cheered.
This was a large-scale hunting war, and the prey were the people who had escaped.
Moreover, this was only for the families or forces of the people who had escaped. Once they managed to snatch the property, the benefits would belong to them.
As for the existence of the contract, they already had a contract with the Holy Cathedral. As long as they were not like these people who had escaped, then these things could be passed down to their descendants forever.
Moreover, Temple Lord and his wife had promised that they would not interfere with the development of their forces.
Since they had chosen to support Temple, they had tacitly agreed to believe their promise.
Therefore, this hunting war was the best opportunity for them to rapidly expand their forces.
The people who had escaped immediately panicked.
None of them dared to guarantee that they were not afraid.
People's hearts were fickle, not to mention that they were tempted by such huge benefits.
Not to mention the situation in the outside world, once this matter was spread back, those who always wanted to replace him would immediately find a reason to do so.
Although they did not take the Temple seriously, it did not mean that everyone thought so.
If they were targeted by the enemies outside at this time, they would be in trouble.
Standing on the high platform, Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao looked coldly at the crowd below.
This day would come sooner or later, and they were just taking advantage of the situation to bring it forward.
"Lock them up, and don't let them out without my order."
Long Tianhao smiled and gave the order.
In an instant, the guards who had long been prepared rushed out like a tide.
It was already a mess below.
Only their place was the last quiet place.
"Don't be afraid."
Long Tianhao held her hand and comforted her softly.
Lin Mengya shook her head.
She had long been used to such a scene.
But every time she saw it, she inevitably felt a little melancholy.
Everyone had their own ambitions.
But some people could not see through it. They only thought about their own territory, but did not know that a greater crisis had shrouded behind them.
She knew that the reason why Long Tianhao pushed this matter to develop was that the challenges they were facing were too heavy.
Everyone worked together, but they could only find a 30% chance of survival, not to mention these stupid teammates who would drag them down.
Therefore, before the real crisis came, they had to try their best to shrink their forces and screen their teammates.
As for those who had been eliminated, if it was Long Tianhao, he would not give them too much room to survive.
This was the power of an emperor, a responsibility he had learned and carried since he was a child.
Although Long Tianhao's heart was so soft, even if he had long seen through their intentions, he still gave them a chance.
She turned over her hand and held his hand tightly.
If the world was the debt he was carrying, then she would never let him go forward alone.
Long Tianhao sensed her thoughts and couldn't help but soften his heart.
Fortunately, he had her, who never left him and depended on him in life and death.
The scuffle lasted for a period of time.
In the end, except for the leader and a small number of people who risked their lives to escape, most of them were either injured or disabled, or were caught by Long Tianhao's men.
There were not many deaths, and almost all of them were accidental injuries.
Long Tianhao personally went to see those who were caught.
These people had lost their leader and had experienced a round of torture. Obviously, they were not as energetic as they used to be.
After seeing him, they even kowtowed and begged him to spare their lives.
For this group of people, Long Tianhao's solution was simple and brutal.
"Send a message to the people behind them, and tell them to immediately hand over the property that appeared in the Holy Temple, or I will kill them first!"
The coldness in Long Tianhao's words was enough to make those people tremble.
They could never imagine that the Lord of the Holy Temple, who had always been as sacred as a flower on a high mountain, could be more vicious than those bandits they had seen before.
But they forgot that they were the ones who had angered this lion.
Although the ceremony did not go according to the normal procedures, their status had been officially determined.
Although her brothers were reluctant to part with her, they didn't stay idle.
The biggest beneficiary of this storm was not the families who wanted to hunt other families, but the Gong Family.
Now that they had the protection of the Holy Temple, and in addition to the favorable impression that the Gong Family had gained from the voluntary treatment of the other families, it could be said that the Gong Family's status in the entire Wei Country was extraordinary.
No matter how worried these people were, they had neglected the most basic problem.
The Holy Temple could take away their property, but they could not take away the people who supported them.
But for thousands of years, these forces had been arrogant, and they rarely saw clearly who they should ally with.
And the Holy Temple had done a great job in this regard.
The reason why Long Tianhao was not afraid of their counterattack was that in the hearts of the people, the Holy Temple was a place of holy glory.
Especially in this epidemic, the Gong Family's medical team had stepped forward at the critical moment, under the banner of the Holy Temple.
Compared to those families and forces who did not care about their lives and who did not care about them, the Gong Family and the Holy Temple were like living Bodhisattvas.
So this time, they had the people's support, which meant that they had won in advance.
After a busy day, even Lin Mengya, who had nothing to do, did not have any time to rest.
It was only now that she realized that the position of the Mistress of the Temple Lord was not just an idle position.
But in the past, because there was no Mistress of the Temple Lord, the things that should have been done by her were either temporarily put aside, or taken over by others.
Deputy Palace Lord Qin led her to a palace.
Looking at the bookshelves that were more than ten meters high, Lin Mengya felt dizzy.
"Deputy Palace Lord Qin, what do you mean by this?"
She looked a little pale, and felt that she had been fooled.
But Deputy Palace Lord Qin had always been smiling at her. As the saying goes, one does not hit a smiling face. Moreover, he was her elder, and he had always been protecting her and Long Tianhao.
Lin Mengya could only pretend that she did not see the gloating look in his eyes.
