Time goes by.

In a blink of an eye, two years have passed since the last war.

During these two years, many things happened in the Sealed Land, including the relocation of the headquarters of the Great Xia Dynasty to the Sealed Land.

The Great Xia Royal City has become a holy place in the Sealed Land, attracting countless powerful people and young talents to gather here.

A treasure trove of natural resources!

Outstanding people!

This caused the housing prices in the Great Xia Royal City to soar.

This made the original residents of the Great Xia Dynasty very happy. They instantly became nouveau riche and lived a wealthy life.

Most importantly, the policies of the Great Xia Dynasty were lenient, unlike the Wuchang Mansion and the Qingyun Blessed Land, which blocked the skills, suppressed the martial arts, and adopted a policy of killing the strong and the geniuses, causing panic among the people.

The Great Xia Dynasty not only did not oppose it, but instead took an encouraging attitude and strongly supported the cultivation of geniuses and strong people.

This made warriors all over the world very happy!
Excited.

Start practicing actively.

As a result, in just two short years, the number of strong people and geniuses in the sealed land increased exponentially.

Many powerful people hiding in the dark began to walk in the world.

The sealed land ushered in prosperity.

only.
There are also some shortcomings that are becoming apparent.

This problem is also a common problem that all forces will encounter.

It is easy to conquer a country, but difficult to defend it!

Empire.

Zhuge Liang is reviewing memorials to the emperor.

He was originally in seclusion, but was forcibly called out.

It’s just because a thorny issue occurred within the Great Xia Dynasty. If this issue is not handled, it will affect the future of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Wu Yong wanted to deal with it, but the forces involved were too great and he did not dare to act on his own.

"What a great Xiang family!"

After reading a memorial, Zhuge Liang threw it heavily to the ground with a cold expression.

There was a flash of endless coldness in his eyes.

The memorial recorded that the Xiang family was tyrannical and domineering in the local area, bullying the government and intimidating the government officials, and demanding that the county magistrate must be loyal to the Xiang family.

The most hateful thing is that the Xiang family intentionally or unintentionally imitated Wuchang Mansion and Qingyun Blessed Land, demanding that all the geniuses within the family's sphere of influence submit to the Xiang family, otherwise they would send people to suppress them.

The purpose of doing this is simple, it can quickly strengthen the family's power.

"you do not say!"

Wu Yong stood aside with a complicated expression, and sighed: "The young man who slays the dragon finally becomes a dragon!"

Now, what is the difference between what the Xiang family does and what they once hated, the Wuchang Mansion and Qingyun Blessed Land?
It’s exactly the same!
Zhuge Liang said nothing, and then asked: "What about the other forces?"

Wu Yong said without hesitation: "The Zhang clan, the Pang clan, and the Gu clan all committed illegal acts. The more honest ones are the Linglong clan and the Ou clan. Although there are also disciples who do evil, they generally obey the orders of the court!"

Zhuge Liang nodded, "Where is Shishitang?"

“The most honest!”

Wu Yong had a strange look on his face, and said with a smile: "Qian Yun is currently working in the Ministry of Justice. He has carefully studied the laws of Daxia. In order for the Tenth Generation Hall to be passed down from generation to generation, he has set up a law enforcement guard in the Tenth Generation Hall. Once anyone is found to have violated the law, they will be dealt with severely!"

"Everyone in the Tenth Generation Hall abides by the law and often sends people out to do good deeds, which has won unanimous praise in the local area!"

"Not bad!"

Zhuge Liang smiled when he heard this.

With so many forces, I finally found one that is worry-free!
Then, Zhuge Liang looked at Wu Yong and asked with a smile: "Why did you call me out of seclusion? What is your plan?"

"Kill the chicken to scare the monkey!"

Wu Yong narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of anger flashed across his face, and he said in a deep voice: "I want to take people to various forces to arrest people, arrest those who break the law and discipline, and put them in the prison, punish them according to their crimes, and serve as a warning to the world!"

"only"

At this point, Wu Yong paused and said, "They are all meritorious people. I have some concerns!"

"Confused!"

Zhuge Liang shook his head, his expression solemn, and ordered: "I have something to tell you. The law is merciless. Anyone who violates the laws of Daxia will be punished, even if they are meritorious officials!"

"Merit and fault often come in a single thought. If we don't stop them, evil thoughts will grow and shake the foundation of the Great Xia Dynasty!"

"National interests are above all else!"

Zhuge Liang continued: "Don't worry, just do it boldly. The laws of Daxia will back you up!"

Daxia Law!

As long as it is permitted by law and acted in accordance with the law, no matter who is punished, it will be meritorious without fault.

"Understood!"

Wu Yong stood up and said with a smile: "With the Prime Minister's words, I can do it with confidence!"

"You."

Zhuge Liang shook his head but didn't say much.

He guessed clearly what Wu Yong was thinking. He was just worried about causing a big mess that he couldn't resolve.

The Xiang clan.

The Xiang family today is very different from before.

Even the size of the family has been expanding again and again, from the original blessed land to a small city. The materials used are also very luxurious, and it is magnificent and golden, and it glows even at night.

At first glance, you might think it was a palace.

Even spiritual plants are planted on both sides of the road.

Such extravagance is far beyond the reach of even the palace built by Ye Jiuxing.

at this time.

A bridal sedan drove into the Xiang family’s gate.

After a while, Xiang Hao, the eldest son of the Xiang family, staggered into the mansion with a flushed face and reeking of alcohol.

In his room, the lights were on.

The most conspicuous.

Still on the bed, with a woman tied up.

wrong.

In fact, she was not a woman, but should be called a girl, only thirteen or fourteen years old.

The girl struggled hard, but the ropes on her body were tied too tightly. She tried her best, but she couldn't move at all. She had to give up struggling. Her face was pale, tears kept flowing, and she was terrified.

She was originally a little girl from the village, but after being spotted by a city dweller, she was abducted to Xiang's mansion.

"My little beauty, here I come"

Xiang Hao pushed open the door, looked at the girl on the bed, and smiled wickedly.

He drank a bowl of tea and licked his lips. His hazy eyes became clearer and he flew forward with excitement in his heart.

"what!"

The girl's screams cut through the night.

boom!
And this time.

The door was blown open by a huge force and shattered into pieces.

Xiang Hao, who was about to succeed, froze slightly, was startled, and cursed: "Which son of a bitch dares to kick me?"

"I kicked your dad!"

Before he could finish his words, Xiang Feng's cold voice rang out, containing a mysterious power, echoing in the room, shaking the entire room violently.

Xiang Hao, who was still a little drunk, completely sobered up, swallowed his saliva, and said in a trembling voice: "Dad, why are you here?"

Xiang Feng said coldly: "I came to see you do something good!"

"What?"

Xiang Hao was stunned and shocked.

My dad also has this hobby and likes to watch others do it. Why didn’t I know about it before?
Ugh!
The disguise is so good!

Thinking of this, Xiang Hao's brain got hot and he blurted out: "Dad, I'll continue, you can watch from the side, but try not to make any noise"

This time, it was Xiang Feng's turn to be dumbfounded.

He stood there at a loss, as if he had been struck by lightning.

But soon, Xiang Feng reacted, his face instantly became extremely gloomy, his eyes were filled with flames, and he shouted angrily: "Rebellious son! You rebellious son, I will beat you to death!" After that, he waved his right hand, and spiritual energy gushed out, condensing into a whip, and lashed down fiercely.

boom!
The force of its panic produced a piercing sound that broke through the air.

Xiang Hao only felt a flash before his eyes, and his whole body was whipped away. A deep whip mark was left on his chest, and blood flowed out.

"Dad, are you going to kill me?"

A terrified voice rang out.

When Xiang Feng heard this, he suddenly came to his senses, quickly put away the whip, ran forward and asked, "Son, are you okay?"

"What do you think?"

Xiang Hao said unhappily.

Xiang Feng's face was filled with pain, and he quickly sent a stream of spiritual energy into Xiang Hao's body to heal his injuries.

After a while, Xiang Hao's injuries healed.

Wait until the pain is gone.

Xiang Hao winked and said, "Dad, why do I feel like you're in a bad mood? How about I let you enjoy the girl in my bed!"

He was a little depressed.

I have been like this for more than one or two days, and I have never seen my dad get angry!
Moreover.

Isn't it normal to do this?
Let me ask you, how many rich young men don’t rob women?
Is this a thing?

No!

In Xiang Hao's view, it was their blessing that he could favor these lowly women, and they should be grateful to him.

After all, he is a powerful person who is high above everyone else. If these cheap women were not pretty, how could they get his body and sleep in the same bed with him?

"you"

Xiang Feng's anger, which had just subsided, was aroused again.

What nonsense is this rebellious son saying?

Am I that kind of person, your father?

Forget it.

Knowing son Moruo father.

He also knew that his son was hopeless and he just hoped that he would not get into trouble in the future.

"Don't go out during this period of time!"

Xiang Feng took a deep breath, trying to calm his anger, and said in a deep voice: "Also, deal with all the illegal things you do on a daily basis!"

Xiang Hao was full of resistance and said dissatisfiedly: "Dad, you want to confine me?"

boom!
Xiang Feng collapsed.

He couldn't help it anymore and slapped him.

Xiang Hao flew out again. When he calmed down and was about to speak, Xiang Feng's furious voice rang in his ears again, "You have committed a crime and the court knows about it!"

"what?"

Xiang Hao was horrified and said worriedly, "Dad, the court won't arrest me, right?"

Although he is a playboy.

However, he also knew that the Great Xia Dynasty had harsh laws and punishments, and that anyone who violated the laws would hardly have a good ending.

"Don't worry about this. I, your father, still have some face!"

Xiang Feng stroked his beard, a smug smile appeared on his face, and then he seemed to think of something and said in a deep voice: "However, the big figures of the Great Xia Dynasty are all in seclusion. When they come out, it will be bad if they settle accounts with us later!"

Xiang Hao stopped messing around and asked honestly, "Dad, what do you think we should do?"

"Just stop breaking the law!"

Xiang Feng said in a deep voice.

"it is good!"

Xiang Hao nodded, then looked at the woman on the bed, revealing a trace of heartache, and said regretfully: "What a pity, such a beautiful lady! How about I enjoy her first?"

boom!
Xiang Feng's mouth twitched, and he roared, "Asshole! Send him back to me immediately!"

Xiang Hao covered his ears with his hands and nodded repeatedly: "I understand!"

"go quickly!"

Xiang Feng was too lazy to talk to this rebellious son and turned away.

Just after he took two steps, Xiang Hao's voice came from behind him, warning: "Dad, you have done a lot of illegal things, quickly destroy all the evidence, your son does not want to suffer with you!"

Xiang Feng staggered and almost fell to the ground.

Listen, is this what a son should say?

"understood!"

Xiang Feng responded and left quickly.

However, what Xiang Feng didn't know was that as soon as he left, Xiang Hao took the girl away from the Xiang Mansion. However, he didn't go to return the girl, but found an inn and prepared to continue his beastly behavior.

"Jie Jie"

"No one who has fallen into my mouth has ever escaped!"

Xiang Hao licked his lips, very excited.

however.

Just when he took action.

Behind him, there was a sudden sound of a sword, and then a sword was hung at his neck, flashing with a cold light, which made the hairs on his body stand up.

At this moment, Xiang Hao was extremely depressed.

Is it over yet?

I just want to enjoy myself, why is it so difficult?
"Who are you?"

Xiang Hao turned around and saw a man in a black robe. His anger instantly subsided and he said in a trembling voice, "Please spare my life, my dear! I am the young master of the Xiang Mansion. How much ransom do you need? Tell me the number."

He hasn't realized the crisis yet.

In this world, anything that can be solved with money is not a problem.

He has nothing but money.

"You're under arrest!"

The man in black robe was speechless. This useless young master of the Xiang family was quite mysteriously confident.

When did I say I wanted to give up money?
You can't quit coloring.
bah bah bah!
You can't even think about that.

"you"

Xiang Hao's face turned pale, and he asked in a trembling voice, "Are you from the imperial court?"

The man in black robe was silent.

You idiot just noticed?

You are a member of the Xiang family after all. If I didn't have some background, would I dare to kidnap you?

Xiang Hao's body softened and he collapsed to the ground powerlessly. The next moment, he thought for a moment and asked in a deep voice, "Sir, I am Xiang Feng's son. He is a meritorious official of Daxia. I am the meritorious official. You can't arrest me!"

Hero!

This is a talisman at any time.

Do you dare to attack the descendants of meritorious officials?
If this gets out, it will surely cause panic among the people and cause an uproar.

By then, who would dare to serve the court?

unmanned!

The man in black robe said calmly: "I know you are a meritorious official, but the order to arrest you was issued by the Prime Minister. Meritorious officials deserve respect and preferential treatment, but they cannot override the laws of Daxia!"

"What the Xiang family has done has offended the foundation of the Great Xia Dynasty!"

"rest assured."

The black-robed man said as he slowly stretched out his right hand and grabbed Xiang Hao's neck. He then said calmly, "You are only the first one. There will be many others to accompany you. You won't feel lonely!"

But these words seem to be comforting.

But to Xiang Hao's ears, it was like a bomb, which made him dumbfounded and filled with despair.

Just the first one!
Could it be that the imperial court is going to purge the Xiang clan?

If the Xiang clan is destroyed, who will save him?
"Dad, you've hurt me so much!"

Xiang Hao's eyes were filled with tears. He thought that he must be troubled by his father's affairs, otherwise how could he be thrown into prison in the hot summer for his drinking, gambling and whoring.

What a rip-off! (End of this chapter)
