Chapter 526
526 The reappearance of the mandala flower (thanks to ‘life in the song of death’ for becoming the chief of this book)
“General, don’t worry. I will definitely complete the mission!” Sun Shu firmly promised.
Link nodded in satisfaction, his lips curling into a smile.”I’ve always been confident in your ability. You’re also very smart and know what should and shouldn’t be done. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have promoted you to be an advisor. Since we’ve already chosen a side, we must keep our distance from the powerful families. As long as you do the things I’ve told you, I’ll put in a few good words for you in front of the city Lord once the chaos among the powerful families has been completely resolved.”
A hint of joy flashed across Sun Shu’s face.”Thank you for your promotion, general!”
after the two’s feigned conversation, sun shu stayed behind to handle the daily affairs of the cavalry camp while link returned to his residence in dragon city. With Qin Shou’s current reputation and status, he didn’t need to be there every day. With Sun Shu as a tool, link could put more energy into serious matters.
The powerful families were dumbfounded by Xu tianzhao’s triple attack.
He had thought that victory was within his grasp. Who would have thought that Xu tianzhao would have such courage to distribute his power and cause greater damage through the ” Trident “?
This time, not only did the aristocratic families not get the position of the valiant cavalry general, but they also lost the important position of the Grand Chancellor of luozhe Palace. In addition, the reopening of the monument yang sect had suppressed them in all aspects, causing them to suffer heavy losses.
if someone else had taken the position of the valiant cavalry general, the powerful families would definitely not let it go and would try their best to take back the position. However, the person in charge was Qin Shou, who had shone during the beast tide a few days ago. He was the champion of three armies and had high personal charm. Not only did he attract the disciples of the humble class, but many of the disciples of the aristocratic families who had personally experienced the battlefield also admired him.
Since the morning, these powerful families had been on the phone non-stop. After many discussions, they finally realized that they couldn’t do anything to Qin Shou. With his current prestige among the Dragon City cavalry, even if Xu tianzhao took back his order today, it was very likely to cause a mutiny among the cavalry, let alone these families!
As for the other Yang Jian, he couldn’t even move!
The monument of the Yang sect was the pride of the people of Dragon City. At this juncture, if there was any accident, the crazy people of Dragon City would do anything. A family that had boasted for decades would be overthrown in minutes!
Thus, the aristocratic families focused their attention on the last person-Li Chao.
He did not have any prominent family background, nor did he have a dazzling resume. The only thing worth mentioning was that he joined the palace guard after being coldly selected by the emperor’s teacher. After that, Qin Shou and Yang Jian were selected from the blood fortress, which were the two people he relied on the most.
Compared to Qin Shou and Yang Jian, who couldn’t move, Li Chao seemed to be the only one who could.
The gold officer, the invigilator, the Grand Chancellor, and the general of the Imperial Guards.
These identities seemed powerful, but they lacked Foundation. There was no reason for them to stay put like Qin Shou and Yang Jian.
Just as they decided to make a move around Li Chao, a piece of news came from Luo Zhe Palace, which immediately made these aristocratic families feel as if they had lost their parents.
this is bad! After Li Chao took over Luo Zhe Palace, he actually expelled all the teachers and students who didn’t come!
“how dare this guy!”
After some discussion, the aristocratic families were prepared to show Li Chao their might this morning and let him know whether the words of the poor or the aristocratic families in the luozhe Palace were final. However, they didn’t expect Li Chao to be even more stubborn. He directly expelled all the teachers and students who didn’t come. One had to know that those who didn’t come were all members of the aristocratic families.
Li Chao’s actions were no different from cutting off an arm of the aristocratic families.
As the intelligence Agency of Dragon City, luozhe Palace integrated intelligence processing and analysis into one from the training of intelligence personnel to their appointment. The reason why the influential families appointed their own family members as teachers was to attract some poor children to work for the family, or to expand their network. It was the same for the children of powerful families. With the care of their elders, they could easily find a good job after graduation or stay in the school to teach and continue to expand the influence of their families.
But now, Li Chao had wiped out all the people from the powerful families with a wave of his hand. This was simply too ruthless!
First, they lost the Grand libation of luozhe Palace. Now, even the members of the powerful families in the palace were all eliminated. This was a big raid!
If Li Chao was allowed to continue, who knew what crazy things he would do?
Very quickly, the powerful families came up with a set of countermeasures to put pressure on Xu tianzhao.
xu tianzhao was overbearing. now that he had touched the foundation of their aristocratic families, they could not blame him for being disloyal.
Their request was very simple-to dismiss Li Chao, restore his original status as the Grand libation, and restore the status of Luo zhegong’s teacher and student who had been cleaned up by Li Chao. This time, they had to get back at Xu tianzhao and let him know that he could not easily control a powerful family.
however, just as they were discussing the countermeasures and preparing to execute them, another bad news came.
“Master, it’s bad. Our business in the suburbs has been uprooted!”
a capital-free business was the so-called robbery of pretending to be a bandit and collecting road fees. On the surface, the businesses of the powerful families had always been checked and balanced by Xu tianzhao to control the speed of their expansion. This capital-free business was their way of accumulating wealth.
After many rounds of robbery, the commoners and merchants were full of complaints. After that, they came out with the image of a powerful family, and each family paid money to announce the suppression of the bandits. when the common people saw this, they naturally clapped their hands and cheered. there would also be donations targeted at ordinary people and merchants. everyone would contribute money and effort to hire people to suppress the bandits.
When the money was received, the money from the aristocratic families would be returned in full, and the money from the commoners and merchants would be split among everyone.
After that, they would organize some servants to go to the suburbs to eliminate the bandits. As long as they brought back some bloody bodies and ordered the servants to behave for a while, the ordinary people would believe that they had successfully eliminated the bandits. In fact, many of the corpses were the bodies of prisoners who had been executed, or the passerby merchants who had been killed after seeing the true face of the horse bandits.
this was a win-win business.
En, the aristocratic families won twice.
But now, their important source of wealth had been uprooted. This was simply stabbing their hearts and taking their old lives!
“What’s going on? who did this?” The heads of the powerful families were all furious.
it … It was the Dauntless cavalry Battalion. They suddenly acted this afternoon without any prior information.
“The hiding place is so well hidden that no one has discovered it in the past few years. How did it suddenly get exposed today? And what does this have to do with the Dauntless cavalry Battalion? are they so bored that they went to exterminate bandits?” the heads of the aristocratic families felt their hearts ache, but they couldn’t understand why qin shou would think of exterminating bandits on his first day.
The continuous news caught these prestigious sects off guard and they were exhausted from dealing with it.
On the one hand, they wanted to deal with Li Chao, but on the other hand, they were afraid of leaving any traces of the horse bandits. They were eager to draw a clear line and destroy all evidence.
the core members of these powerful families were in a flurry under the orders of their masters. they began to burn and destroy all kinds of account books, transaction information, and the identity of servants and guests who disguised themselves as horse bandits.
Xu tianzhao had arranged for ‘Trident’ to be promoted in the hope that the three of them could exert their strength and find an opportunity to destroy the old party.
however, if that was all, the trident’s effect would be too weak.
Furthermore, link had other plans.
“Master, there’s a Messenger outside the door asking for an audience.” the servant hurriedly entered the house and reported.
“what messenger? can’t you see that we’re busy right now? i’m not seeing you!” The core members of the family were all burning with anger, and at this time, there was still someone who came to add to the chaos, it was simply unlucky.
The servant was also very aggrieved. but, but that person said that he is an emissary from the Yang residence. He is here to send an invitation to the old master to attend the reopening ceremony of the Yang residence.
The moment the servant finished speaking, all the core members, including the master, were dumbfounded.
“What? Yang Jian is inviting me to the opening banquet tonight?” The family head was obviously stunned for a moment, then he suddenly realized, and his expression was as uncomfortable as if he was constipated.
“Good, so you were waiting here!”
In the morning, Li Chao fired all the teachers and children of the powerful families in luozhe Palace. Then, Qin Shou raided their important source of funds, the lair of the horse bandits. In the evening, he arranged a banquet at the Yang mansion, which made them even more flustered.
at this critical moment, if we don’t go to the monument realm Yang family’s opening ceremony, with the Yang family’s position in the hearts of the people of Dragon City, how will we be criticized tomorrow? ”
The other core members broke out in cold sweat and quickly came to their senses. the family head’s eyes are still as bright as a torch. If any of the families don’t go, there will definitely be various versions circulating in the streets tomorrow. They might say that we, the noble families, are too arrogant and don’t put the Yang family in our eyes.
If a great family lost its reputation, no one would come to join them. It was no different from suicide.
Xu tianzhao finally couldn’t help but reveal his fangs. This kind of method is extremely overbearing. He wants to force us to death when the beast tide is over. He doesn’t give us any breathing space!
All of them were linked together, each move was ruthless, and he was caught off guard.
“If I don’t take this, I’m afraid he’ll be even more unbridled!” the family head’s face was ashen. he was clearly really angry.
“Continue to destroy the materials, and then arrange for all the guards to guard the house. After I leave, no matter who it is, no matter what excuse you use, before the materials are completely destroyed, no one is allowed to come in. If the people outside choose to make a move, then we’ll fight them head-on. On this point, we’re in the right!”
After arranging everything, the family head instructed the Butler beside him, ” “go to the storehouse and take a high-grade gift, then bring it with me to the yang residence.”
“?~”
The same thing happened in almost all the powerful families in Dragon City.
meanwhile, link, the culprit behind all of this, was sitting in his executive chair in the office of the monster security company branch. he was admiring the bustling dragon city through the huge floor-to-ceiling window.
“The conflict between Xu tianzhao and the aristocratic families is bound to intensify after today’s brewing. The great clans were bound to be full of complaints, and with just a little more pressure, the atmosphere between them would reach a state of mutual hostility. The powerful families of Dragon City were short-sighted and only sought the benefits of the small families. They were conservative and closed in on themselves. They had grand ambitions but were timid. On the one hand, they wanted to control Dragon City with the foundation of their families, but on the other hand, they only cared about their family’s interests. It was a contradictory combination.
This so-called aristocratic family was actually an enlarged version of the common people’s thinking. During the period of overthrowing the power of Dragon City, they could magnify the conflict between them and Xu tianzhao and make use of it. however, after successfully taking down dragon city, they should also retreat. New Dragon City doesn’t need these obstacles to civilization.”
Link’s tone was calm, as if he was talking about something ordinary.
But if outsiders heard this, they would definitely gasp. His words had set the rules for the powerful families in Dragon City. These big families that had given Xu tianzhao a headache were like noisy children in Link’s words.
Behind the back of the boss’s chair, two people stood respectfully.
The manager of the Dragon City branch of monster security company, Simon, and our old acquaintance, Mr. Cong.
“Boss, how are we going to deal with the trash of civilization that has been eliminated?” The third brother, Mr. Cong, was asking for Link’s opinion.
“Do you still remember what I told you before?” link turned around, his eyes deep.
“There must be a city Lord?” third brother asked tentatively, not sure if he was referring to this sentence.
Link nodded. The two of them had a deep understanding of each other. Third brother had been following and giving advice since the days of the Jack gang.
since there must be a city Lord, why can’t the person be Xu tianzhao? ”
Simon was dumbfounded. They were talking about overthrowing Dragon city’s political power. Why did they suddenly let Xu tianzhao continue to be the city Lord? what kind of logic was this? Even Xu tianzhao wouldn’t agree to it, right?
On the other hand, third brother was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes lit up.”Boss, good plan! If Xu tianzhao continued to be in power, Dragon City would not have any major turmoil. As for these aristocratic families, because they harbored evil intentions and committed many evil deeds, they tried in vain to overturn the Dragon city’s political power and have all been destroyed.”
after third brother finished, he couldn’t help but ask, ” ” boss, according to your plan, dragon city is not your only target. can i contact old turtle and start planning for farnight? ”
yes, ” link said in a low voice. if nothing goes wrong, I won’t get involved in Faye’s Affairs. I’ll only meet Augustine before the last dawn. Therefore, I’ll have to rely on you guys to deal with fa ye.”
mr. cong’s face was full of excitement. ever since he had become the governor, he had been carrying out missions and orders arranged by link. now, he finally had the chance to show his strength and personally participate in planning the rise and fall of a major force. His colleagues in the think tank must have been envious when they learned of this!
While Simon was still puzzled, a message suddenly came from the sound transmission bug in his ear.
Simon’s expression changed slightly after he picked up the call. He hung up and reported, ” “Master, the latest news is that all the family heads have gone to the Yang family’s banquet. At the same time, the private soldiers of each family have been mobilized.”
the fire has been ignited, ” link said with a smile. all that’s left is an explosive barrel.
third brother, ” he said to Mr. Cong, ” prepare a bunch of Datura flowers for me. I want to bring the identity information of these horse bandits to the Imperial teacher!
