Chapter 1015 Grand High Priest, the Empire is Proud of You
However, this smile appeared extremely terrifying to the city lord of Lianshan City.
Adding to that the six ice swords floating behind him, the chill emanating from them was enough to freeze one's heart.
"My lord, what are your orders? I, Fatty, will obey your commands at any time!" The city lord of Lianshan City readily admitted defeat.
"From today onwards, Lianshan City belongs to me, and the City Lord's office belongs to you. Any objections?" Xiao Ye No. 6 asked.
Six ice swords slowly floated in front of the Lord of Lianshan City.
"No! Absolutely not! Whatever you say goes! Fatty greets Your Excellency, City Lord!"
"Don't call me City Lord, you are the City Lord, understand?"
"Yes, sir! How should I address you?"
My name is Xu Lai.
"Yes, Lord Xu! Fatty is at your service at any time!" the city lord of Lianshan City said in a panic.
He also sensed something amiss.
His surname is Xu, and he can also contact a group of powerful thugs.
First of all, he's definitely not an ordinary person!
Secondly! This person's surname is Xu!
Fatty, also known as the city lord of Lianshan City, admitted defeat after figuring out all of this.
He was just the lord of a medium-sized city, and he only obtained the position by bribing officials of the Sun and Moon Dynasty.
With an annual salary of 500,000 gold soul coins, why risk your life?
Wouldn't it be better to just be a pawn?
Even if the truth comes out and I am sentenced to be torn apart by chariots, at least for now the truth won't be revealed and I won't die, right?
Xiao Ye No. 6 stared at Fatty, seemingly seeing through his little scheme.
He smiled calmly, took out a red pill, and said, "Take this, and I'll know your sincerity."
Fatty simply picked up the red pill and swallowed it; he knew he had no choice.
"My lord, should I convene a meeting of city lords now so you can take control of the remaining people? Especially that official Li who manages the warehouse! He's completely impervious to reason! I've suggested bribing him multiple times, both openly and subtly! He just won't budge!"
Fatty got excited as he spoke, gesturing twice to his own neck and saying menacingly.
Xiao Ye No. 6 looked up and glanced at Fatty without expression. The coldness in his eyes immediately silenced the latter.
"Shut up and execute my plan, understand? I don't mind appointing a quiet person as the city lord, understand?"
Fatty shuddered when Little Ye No. 6 glared at him, and quickly shut his mouth and nodded.
Xiao Ye No. 6 quickly gained control of the other officials in Lianshan City with the help of the fat city lord.
Originally, the officials of Lianshan City were extremely dissatisfied with the city lord Feitou because of his exploitation. However, Xiao Ye No. 6's policy of temporarily recuperating and monitoring the aristocratic families was immediately approved by a unanimous vote.
As for the aristocratic families who were jumping around, they were directly eliminated by the guards dispatched by the fat-headed city lord.
Anyway, Xiao Ye No. 6 didn't expect to keep the city in his hands for long.
He would label all the disobedient noble families as rebels, then secretly infiltrate them, carrying one or two valuable royal items or a forged dragon robe—nothing much. He could easily wipe out noble families who were only titled Douluo.
With Xiao Ye No. 6 personally taking action, he completely controlled Lianshan City in just one day.
Mingdu, the Sun and Moon Palace.
"Reply received from Lianshan City: No anomalies found. The City Lord's secret order has been verified. The Deputy City Lord's and the Gatekeeper's secret orders have also been verified. All three have been verified! Lianshan City is confirmed to belong to our side!"
A secret order was issued, printed out, and stored in a top-secret file by a nearby bodyguard.
"Lianshan City confirmed to be free of abnormalities!"
The Sun and Moon Empire has hundreds, even thousands, of cities of varying sizes, and confirming them one by one truly took time.
The guards quickly lit up the icon for Lianshan City.
The huge map connected to the Great Sun Palace quickly provided feedback.
"Lianshan City, normal."
Xu Tianran sat quietly on the golden dragon throne, stroking the dragon head carvings on the armrests, his face expressionless.
His gaze remained fixed on the open space outside the palace gate.
"Ugh... Hmm! Ha... Mmm!"
Feng Rong buried her head in front of him, busy with her work.
The surrounding maids all kept their heads down, staring at their toes, not daring to move their eyes, for fear that the emperor's gaze would fall on them.
In the past, all the concubines and maids in the imperial harem longed to gain the emperor's favor.
But now, since their emperor was reborn, they would rather be ostriches than be chosen.
If someone is targeted, they will die in extreme agony.
Because they were just ordinary people and did not have the ability to please the emperor.
Black-hoofed argali sheep, they don't want to bear it, and they can't bear it, except for that freak that can change!
For the first time, Feng Rong felt that her martial soul was so suitable, able to change her own abilities, it was just right!
If things continue like this, as long as Xu Tianran is kept happy, a little bit of medicine can be used each time to firmly capture Xu Tianran's heart.
At that time, even if she couldn't become empress, she would be almost empress herself.
The three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines were all playthings at her feet!
As long as she firmly grasps Xu Tianran's outlet for venting, she will always occupy a place in Xu Tianran's heart. Even if she is just a plaything, the occasional whisper in his ear can still have a great impact.
Throughout history, countless emperors have been unable to escape the power of whispered words from their wives' pillows.
Xu Tianran squinted slightly. Ever since he regained his manhood, he had become madly infatuated with this feeling.
If something is lost and then regained, the desire to possess it will only intensify.
In particular, the black-hoofed argali sheep is one of the most fertile breeds in the world.
The carefully selected, strong black-hoofed argali sheep provided Xu Tianran with a constant source of motivation, allowing him to indulge in his ability to conquer Feng Rong.
In addition, Feng Rong's special abilities allow her to fully withstand Xu Tianran's rage.
This led to Xu Tianran's absurd act of publicly displaying his lewdness in the Great Sun Hall during broad daylight.
The seductive sounds made all the maids hold their breath, not daring to have any improper thoughts. They knew very well how the previous maid had died.
It was unclear how much time had passed, until Xu Tianran looked up at the sky outside the palace gates, then patted Feng Rong's head and said, "Step back."
"Yes." Feng Rong stood up with difficulty, and her body immediately made a series of bone cracking sounds.
After a while, Feng Rong's figure returned to normal.
Xu Tianran tidied himself up and slowly controlled the hovering chair to float to the entrance of the main hall.
The latest novel is first published here!
Before long, two figures gradually descended from the sky.
Kong Deming led Ye Nanxiao and slowly landed on the open ground outside the Great Sun Hall.
Xu Tianran stopped enjoying himself because he sensed that Kong Deming had deliberately slowed down.
Otherwise, as was the case in the past, he would have enjoyed the whole day.
When Xu Tianran saw Ye Nanxiao with the Soul-Locking Stone handcuffs on his wrists, his expression changed instantly, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
"You've worked hard, Grand Elder, to capture this major threat for the Sun Moon Empire!" Xu Tianran said with a slight smile.
Kong Deming, expressionless, said, "Your Majesty, I have a request, and I hope Your Majesty will grant it!"
Looking at Ye Nanxiao, who was now a prisoner, Xu Tianran felt his displeasure and frustration dissipate. Coupled with Feng Rong's service earlier, he was in a much better mood.
With a wave of his hand.
"Your Excellency has rendered great service and is a pillar of the empire. Please speak, and I will certainly grant your request!"
"Your Majesty, please allow me to keep Ye Nanxiao in the Hall of Worship so that he can create more and better soul tools for my empire."
As soon as Kong Deming finished speaking, the smile on Xu Tianran's face froze and slowly disappeared.
What does that mean?
Are they forced to stay in the ancestral hall?
Is Kong Deming trying to protect someone?
Do you even see me as the emperor anymore?
Xu Tianran's smile softened, and he gently tapped the armrest of the suspended seat with his fingers.
Kong Deming also remained expressionless, quietly watching Xu Tianran, seemingly unsurprised by the final outcome.
Ye Nanxiao, also known as Little Ye No. 1, wore an indifferent expression and even openly observed the surrounding situation.
"Your Excellency, may I ask why?" Xu Tianran slowly loosened his grip on the armrest, controlling his expression.
Kong Deming shook his head slightly; he had already explained his reasons.
Seeing that Kong Deming offered no explanation, Xu Tianran could no longer contain himself and angrily slammed his hand on the chair.
"Your Excellency! You know what the Hall of Offerings is! You also know Ye Nanxiao's identity! You're asking me for someone! Fine! Tell me! What guarantee do you have that Ye Nanxiao won't leak the Hall of Offerings' secrets!"
"Your Excellency! I hope this is not a momentary impulse! The Hall of Worship is related to the future of the Empire!"
"Finally! What are you going to use to control Ye Nanxiao! The Brain God Pill? That stuff won't work on him!"
The drug that Xu Tianran specifically used to control some of the geniuses in his clan was the Brain God Pill.
Brain God Pill is made from several poisonous creatures, including the five-colored centipede, pine needle worm, and red-striped python.
After being ingested, the Brain God Pill releases a special toxin that enters the victim's spine.
However, the toxins were useless against Ye Nanxiao's ultimate ice technique!
The finest ice is impervious to all poisons.
Kong Deming said quietly, "I will personally guard it. The Soul-Locking Stone handcuff will not be removed. All I want is his understanding of the Soul Guidance Device."
"If possible, I hope Your Majesty can pardon this person and allow him to cooperate with the Empire."
The future belongs to soul tools, and this piece of the puzzle leading to the future should fall into the hands of the empire.
Xu Tianran's anger flared up quickly, but he also calmed down just as fast.
"Is this a real person or a clone?" He stared at Xiao Ye No. 1, his gaze seemingly capable of burning two large holes in the latter.
"Are you scared? You're a sneaky guy?" Little Leaf Number One gave a friendly smile.
"It's a clone. It'll explode right now inside your palace. One clone for one palace—what a bargain!"
Xu Tianran's outstretched hand fell back down and returned to the armrest.
He stared at Xiao Ye No. 1 and suddenly revealed a meaningful smile.
"High Priest, the Empire is proud of you. This man is now in your hands."
Kong Deming's eyes widened slightly. He thought this wrangling would last a long time, but he didn't expect Xu Tianran to make a decision in such a short time.
However, he could no longer figure out what Xu Tianran was thinking.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
