Dharmaraja braced himself and stood up. He knew he couldn't avoid it. As the Minister of Law Enforcement of Bosch, he had the power to represent Bosch on this matter.
But if he could, he would rather not attend the Dao Discussion Conference. He took time out of his busy schedule to watch the competition, comment on the young people, and relax his tense work state. Then, the blame fell from the sky.
What the hell was going on?
It wasn't strange for the Buddhists to shirk responsibility and the major families to watch the show. It was like when something happened, people all over the world would complain: Isn't America the world's police? Why don't you come out and solve it?
It was okay, the blame still had to be placed.
This was the price to pay for being the boss.
If he had known, he wouldn't have come. He came to relax, but Hua Yu's matter gave him a fright. Then, the Taoist Master's blame was placed on his head. If he didn't come, Bosch could easily retreat. If it was just a group of senior and middle-level employees, they had no right to criticize this matter. But since he came, he had to take the blame.
"This is all Li Xianyu's fault. If he didn't come, these things might not have happened at the Dao Discussion Conference." Dharmaraja thought of this and stared at Li Xianyu fiercely.
Li Xianyu: "???"
I feel like I will become a professional scapegoat like the Evil Taoist. There are millions of scapegoats in the world. Wangchen and I will each take half.
Thinking of him, Li Xianyu was silent and sighed.
What a tragedy. You fought against the Japanese invaders for the nation, shed your blood for the country, but what did you get in return? The love of your life died, you were cursed by thousands of people, and you lost your reputation.
What was even more tragic was that back then, no one cared if you were a good person or what you did for the nation. They only cared about what you got from the Pantheon Palace.
A man's wealth was his own ruin.
Back then, China was torn apart by the Japanese army, and order was in chaos. Half of what happened to the Evil Taoists was caused by the historical background.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the Lightning King of Dharmaraja left the spectator stands to welcome the Greenwood Family.
"Fawang, you are the minister of Bosch. You have the right to intervene in this matter." Li Zhu said, "Bosch is a government agency. They have enough prestige and power to handle this matter. I trust you."
Dharmaraja did not take the scroll from Aoki Takuya. He only glanced at it. With his eyesight, he could easily determine whether it was real or fake. Even though it was well preserved, this ancient scroll still showed traces of time.
The text recorded on it was written in Japanese during World War II. The Japanese of that time was slightly different from the Japanese of today. When dealing with foreign quotations, it was not like before the war, where Chinese characters were used to form a vocabulary to correspond to the pronunciation of the foreign words. After the war, foreign words were directly marked with katakana.
Dharmaraja was eighty percent sure that this record was authentic. But he would not directly say, "Wow, Taoist Master, you old man, you were actually so pathetic when you were young."
"Forgive my poor eyesight, I can't tell if it's real or fake." Dharmaraja said in a clear voice, "The authenticity of this document needs to be verified by professionals. This matter concerns Taoism and Taoist Master's reputation. If everyone here trusts Bosch, and the Aoki family trusts Bosch, you can give this information to me. I will send it to Bosch's headquarters for verification. Whether it's real or fake, Bosch will answer to the outside world. "
"The Dao Discussion is a grand event in the Bloodline World that happens once every four years. Everyone has come from afar, and I don't want to be spoiled by this matter. Let's put this matter to rest for now. What do you think? "
Dharmaraja was an old politician. He was well-versed in playing the ball and delaying tactics. If he did not have some skills, how could he be the minister of law enforcement and manage the various perverts in the company?
We're not afraid of being spoiled … The crowd was disappointed. They were onlookers, people who wanted to watch the show. The more lively the merrier, the better. This was the natural instinct of those who were watching melons.
"Amitabha, that's good."
"Good!"
The Taoists and Buddhists heaved a sigh of relief.
"I don't agree!" Li Zhu snorted, "If you need professional appraisers, it's fine. We can wait, and I believe everyone here is willing to wait too. Bosch can just send professionals over. But I refuse to delay, and refuse to deal with this behind the scenes. "
"You can obviously deal with this in front of everyone. Why do you want to wait until later? Officials protect each other. Is Bosch trying to side with Taoist Master? I trust Bosch, but Bosch's decision is too disappointing. "
His words won the approval of the audience.
"Bosch is really trying to cover up. You need an appraiser? I can do it. I studied history. "
"I graduated from archaeology. Do you want me to do it?"
"I studied Japanese."
Everyone here was talented, and their words were pleasant to listen to. Dharmaraja's excuse was indeed untenable. There was no lack of professionals here. There were many people who could identify the authenticity of ancient scrolls.
Dharmaraja took a deep breath and lowered his voice, "Li Zhu, you're not afraid of death at your age. You should at least think about your Li family. Let's put an end to this for now. Bosch can promise you that he will uphold justice for you. "
Li Peiyun sneered, "Dharmaraja, my Li family has long left the country. The world is so big. You can try searching and see if you can find the clansmen of my Li family. "
Li Zhu said indifferently, "Bosch will uphold justice for me? I've lived for almost a hundred years. I'm afraid I can't wait that long. "
Dharmaraja said angrily, "What do you want? After this, Taoist Master's reputation will be tarnished. The entire Bloodline World will watch. Taoism won't cover up for him. Whether you want to deal with Taoist Master or clear the name of the demon path, you've achieved your goal. When Myriad Deity Palace's matter is over, Taoism will announce Taoist Master's punishment. Bosch and the Buddhist Sect will definitely be watching. "
"Then how does Dharmaraja think Taoism will deal with Taoist Master? Strip him of his power and kick him out of Taoism? So what? He's still free and unfettered. Moreover, Taoist Master has been running for so many years and has so many supporters in Taoism. Even if those sect leaders draw a line with Taoist Master on the surface and there are righteous people in Taoism, there will still be a large number of people who listen to him. So what if he's stripped of his power and position? He can still be an emperor with peace of mind. "
What he said made sense. Dharmaraja also knew this would happen. But what could he do? What Taoist Master did back then was exposed. His reputation would be tarnished and he would step down from his position. The world would be satisfied with such a result. Everyone would agree.
Do you expect everyone to join forces to encircle and kill the Taoist Master for the sake of the evil Taoist from eighty years ago and to make him pay with his blood?
Was that even possible?
To put it bluntly, most people were just there to watch the show. Then they would say that Taoist Master was a beast in human form and kick him off the stage. That was already good enough.
The Demon Dao was not their father, so you could not expect them to avenge the Demon Dao or anything like that.
"Taoist Master will not be able to establish himself in the Blood Kin World. He won't be able to keep his chastity. Are you still not satisfied? What do you want? "Dharmaraja said.
"Blood for blood," Li Zhu said word by word.
"Bastard!" Dharmaraja was furious. "You are thinking of a way out. If you really want to take revenge, you can do whatever you want after the storm at Pantheon Palace. But not now! Bosch will not agree. "
You have to have the ability to do so.
Just you? Just your great-grandson, Li Peiyun?
Since the negotiation had failed, there was no need to continue. Li Zhu ignored Dharmaraja. His cloudy eyes swept across the crowd.
"Everyone, just now the descendant of the Li family said that justice may be late, but it will never be absent. All of you have acknowledged his words. Now, this old man will ask all of you. "
"Now, do you still agree with what he said?"
The audience looked at each other. "What is he trying to do?"
"Wangqing, I will now collect the debt from you. I will do what Taoist Wangchen can't do. As Wangchen's disciple, I challenge you to a fight. With the Heavens above and the Earth below, I swear on behalf of my great-grandson Li Peiyun that today I will fight Wang Qing to the death and settle all the scores. "Li Zhu's old body let out a deep roar:" Wang Qing, do you dare to accept? "
Taoist Master was silent.
"Old thief, do you know what you are doing?"
"Amitabha. Benefactor Li, calm down. Don't be rash."
"Li Zhu, how dare you. Lianhua Temple is not a place for you to behave atrociously."
"The demon path's case has already been settled. If you want to reverse the verdict, you should cooperate with everyone. Don't mess around here."
Taoism, Buddhism, Bosch, and even the big families didn't support him. Maybe there were people who supported him, but they were all shocked. Fight to the death with Taoist Master? Li Peiyun?
Taoism would never allow such a thing to happen. Even if Taoist Master was guilty, he should be judged by Taoism. Their leader broke the law and was killed by an outsider in the name of justice. Not to mention that Taoist Master's cultivation was unparalleled, this in itself was an insult to Taoism's face and dignity.
Buddhism and Bosch naturally didn't want to protect Taoist Master. Things had gotten out of hand and Taoist Master couldn't possibly remain in his position unscathed. However, as the official organization of the Blood Descendants World and the leader of the righteous path, Buddhism and Bosch had to consider the big picture and wouldn't allow Li Zhu to fight.
At the same time, it was a form of protection for him. Fighting to the death with Taoist Master was just courting death.
Li Zhu seemed to have expected such a situation. With a smile on his face, he said calmly, "Before I came, I arranged for people to plant bombs in all the grotto-heavens and Taoist temples of Dao Sect. As long as I make a phone call, your people might be fine, but the hundred years of foundation of Dao Sect fellow daoists will not be safe."
Everyone's expression changed.
Li Zhu nodded slightly at Li Peiyun. She understood and took out her phone to make a call. She said calmly, "Quanzhen!"
A few minutes after the call was made, a Taoist master of Quanzhen immediately received a call from a disciple of the sect. His eyes immediately turned red and he crushed his phone. "Taoist Master, Donghua Temple and Dongyue Temple have been destroyed."
The Quanzhen disciples were in an uproar. "How did they get in?"
Just as Lianhua Temple wasn't open to the public, the cultivation places of the disciples of other sects were also closed to the public. Tourists could only go to those Taoist temples that were open to the public to offer incense and sightsee.
"They planted a bomb on the West Peak. The bomb caused the mountain to collapse and destroyed Dongyue Temple and Donghua Temple."
The pupils of everyone from Taoism shrank.
"You can gang up and attack me. Kill me. I'm no longer afraid of death, and I'm not afraid of dying together with you. If you remain silent, then the bomb won't explode. You can investigate it yourself afterward. "Li Zhu smiled coldly." Be silent. Silence is the code of conduct for people like you. "
"Ancient God!!" Dharmaraja gritted his teeth.
Li Zhu looked at him and said, "Bosch, please remain silent too. We have also planted bombs in the provincial capitals. If you don't want to see the news of the explosion tomorrow, just ask your people to remain silent."
Dharmaraja was furious. No one had ever done such a crazy thing. Anyone with the slightest desire to live would never dare to do such a thing.
This old man, who had endured for decades, had completely gone mad.
