Book 1: Chapter 367: Divine Child
Ri Qing thought for a moment before nodding, "I'm willing to support Divine Child!"
Since Ri Qing had expressed his stance, the other two God Emissaries also expressed their willingness to support Zhao Fu's reforms. If they did not support him, they might lose their status as Sun Emissaries, and a new Sun Emissary could be promoted at any time.
Zhao Fu smiled in satisfaction and nodded, "First, I want to announce the abolition of two systems. First, God Emissaries are not allowed to collect resources from other Villages, and second, I want to abolish the servant system."
These two systems had been abolished by Zhao Fu long ago when he was the Temple Lord. Later, considering that it would cause too great of a commotion, it was temporarily stopped. Now that Zhao Fu had become the Temple Lord of the Eight Sun Temple and had the highest authority, it was time for a new reform.
Ri Qing said, "Divine Child, these two systems will be in place for a long time, and there will be a lot of opposition."
Ri Qing also advised, "Divine Child, this is too much of a hindrance. How about we do it step by step and don't be in such a hurry?"
Ri Hu also said, "Yes, this will affect many people's interests, and there will be a lot of resistance."
Zhao Fu had long since expected that there would be a lot of resistance. After all, when Zhao Fu had abolished the two systems in the White God Temple, he had received a lot of help. Zhao Fu's solution was very direct, which was to kill them all.
Perhaps taking things slowly would reduce some resistance and casualties, but Zhao Fu did not have that much time to stay here.
Zhao Fu said, "Yes, I know there will be a lot of resistance. Gather the forces of the eight God Temples and have them spread throughout the Extreme Yang Land. If anyone resists, kill them without mercy."
The Sun Emissaries looked at Zhao Fu in shock; they had never thought that Zhao Fu would be so decisive and kill those who resisted. Who knew how many people would die, and the Eight Sun Temple would suffer great losses.
Ri Qing could not help but say, "Divine Child, if we do this, many people will die, and it will have a negative impact on the Eight Sun Temple."
Zhao Fu nodded, "I understand that there will be great losses, but without destruction, there can be no construction. Only by sacrificing these people can we welcome a completely new Eight Sun Temple."
Ri Qing didn't say anything.
Zhao Fu looked at the crowd. "Do you have anything else to say?"
Everyone fell silent.
Zhao Fu said, "Then follow my orders!"
"Yes!" the Sun God Envoys replied.
The eight assembled armies of the Divine Hall were distributed to various places in the Land of Extreme Yang according to Zhao Fu's orders. At the same time, he announced the abolition of the two systems.
The happiest were, of course, the people from the villages and the maids who had been persecuted. They couldn't help but feel relieved, and some of them were even moved to tears.
The prophecy had come true. The person who made the prophecy would make their lives better and make the Ri race stronger.
Of course, there were also some people who were not convinced. Originally, their own benefits would not be affected much, and they even thought that there would be more benefits, but they did not expect it to be like this.
Some people chose to endure it. Now that the prophet had already taken control of the Eight Days Divine Hall, rebelling was equivalent to courting death.
Some people couldn't take it anymore. They gathered their troops and wanted to resist Zhao Fu's orders.
At that moment, the armies spread out in various places were put to use.
An army easily broke into a town, and those who resisted wanted to escape in fear. The army ferociously chased after those people.
In the end, the Mayor of the town was captured. He was a pot-bellied middle-aged man, and he was dragged in front of an armored young man by two people.
The middle-aged man cried as he begged, "I won't dare to do it again. Please let me off this time; I'm willing to obey all of your orders."
The young man coldly ordered, "The Son of God has ordered that anyone who disobeys will be killed without mercy."
The middle-aged man was dragged away, and a soldier took out a large saber and chopped off the middle-aged man's head, causing blood to spurt out like a fountain.
"Ahhhh …"
Countless howls sounded out in the town, causing people to feel terror. The stench of blood spread everywhere.
After killing many of the rebels, the young man had people hang their corpses on the city walls to warn others.
There were also rebels in other places, but just as they were tempted, the army stationed at the side immediately charged in and killed all of the rebels. Surrendering was useless, and the corpses were piled up into a small mountain, and the blood formed a small stream. This made people feel immense fear.
Under the suppression of this bloody massacre, the seeds of rebellion were eradicated before they could grow. The others who had the intention of rebelling did not dare to make any moves to rebel.
After a short period of chaos, the Eight Sun God Temple quickly calmed down. It could even be said to be deathly silent. No matter if it was those who wanted to rebel or those who supported change, none of them dared to make a sound in the face of this bloody massacre, as they were afraid that they would be killed.
The eight Sun God Emissaries became incredibly careful in front of Zhao Fu, afraid that they would anger him. Seeing the Eight Sun God Temple become completely different in such a short period of time, the eight Sun God Emissaries felt quite shocked.
Zhao Fu waited a few days for the massacres to settle down before giving out some more orders. At the same time, he made some announcements, saying that he would not casually kill people and that those he killed were people who deserved to die. They were people who had disobeyed his orders and were people who had obstructed the Eight Day God Temple's reformation.
Zhao Fu then gave out another order, inviting the various Villages, Towns, and factions to come to the Eight Sun God Temple to discuss the future direction of the Eight Sun God Temple and how to resolve the various problems.
After hearing about this, the people who had been worried and afraid once again cheered and no longer worried about being punished. They wholeheartedly supported Zhao Fu, the person who had made the prophecy.
People from various places came to the Eight Sun God Temple with smiles and hope. Seeing the person who had made the prophecy, they all felt quite excited.
Zhao Fu did not put on a high and mighty front and instead sat on his throne warmly. He listened to the various things and gave some replies. Even though he might not be able to resolve the various problems, he still had that attitude.
Finally, he invited everyone to a banquet.
After these people went back, they told everyone about what had happened, letting everyone know what kind of person Zhao Fu was, as well as his thoughts about the Eight Sun God Temple. The Extreme Yang Region was sent into an uproar, and everyone's love and respect for Zhao Fu became even more fervent.
It could be said that no matter what orders Zhao Fu gave, they would immediately carry them out. They were filled with confidence in the Eight Sun God Temple's future.
Seeing the changes in the Eight Sun God Emissaries, they became even more respectful towards Zhao Fu. They understood that Zhao Fu was not as simple as the person who had made the prophecy and that his power was extraordinary. They were filled with anticipation towards the Eight Sun God Temple's future.
