LEGEND OF THE DEMON KING.
406. THE DEVIL'S CLEANSING DECREE.
A plump middle-aged woman in her forties, free from the scars of time, walked with dignity and high air.
At each of his steps, the golden stick of the dragon's head shattered the pavement. Surprisingly, at that very instant the hearts of others surged.
She was the legend that made the Floating Flower Building last a century ago with her own two hands, which they called Grandma, Chu Wise!
Long Yifey and Xie Xiaofeng had heard about his recovery from Long Jiu and Jian Suifeng, but seeing it in person was a completely different matter.
Each of them watched dumbfounded as if they were seeing a ghost. One could hardly blame them.
Behind Grandma was Iris Supervisor and Peony Supervisor. They stood up proudly and their heads held high, finally able to bring out their long-buried energy.
“I-impossible! You should have died! ” Hall Lord Yan stuttered.
While snorting, Chu Bijun flicked his gaze and spat, “Yan Bogong, you definitely want it.
But to your disappointment, I am alive and well. I might be entering the Radiant Stage soon.
Huh, your deep consideration for Drifting Flowers Edifice over the years has been noted. I will make sure to pay for any violations! ”
Shivering inside, Yan Bogong was drowning in depression.
Chu Bijun's title as Lady of Steel was due to her unwavering determination in keeping her promise. The future of the Pill King Hall seemed quite grim.
“Congratulations on your recovery, Edifice Lord Chu, and continue your leadership!”
Leng Wuchang gradually cooled down and cupped his hands to Chu Bijun. He countered the move with a light bow, though,
“Please, Mr. Leng, you're too good. The Building Lord has always been Qingcheng. But he had to enter seclusion as this meeting went on.
So I took it upon myself to help her by coming here instead. ”
“Lod Chu's building is simple. Everyone knows you are the First Supervisor.
However, you are no different from a Building Lord, thus your title. With your lead, Drifting Flowers Edifice will rise.”
Smiling, Leng Wuchang continued, “You have great admiration for me for having advised three generations of Building Kings and for your open-minded nature.”
Chu Bijun nodded to show his respect.
Leng Wuchang smiled, “Is it too much to ask that in this Meeting of the Seven Houses, Edifice Lord Chu put aside our differences?”
“Ha-ha-ha, of course, Mr. Leng. It's just, I'm not so sure anyone else will be as fast as I agree.” Chu Bijun glanced at Yan Bogong.
Yan Bogong gritted his teeth, “Because Mr. Leng asked, I will accommodate your request while at Regent Estate.”
“Ha-ha-ha, amazing!”
Laughing, Leng Wuchang's eyes scoured the crowd and beckoned in style, “ Guests, please follow me. Plantation Master is waiting.”
He leads.
The rest followed him, while Yan Bogong snorted at Chu Bijun. Chu Bijun only smiled coldly, leaving with his supervisor.
As they passed through the Shrouded Dragon Pavilion and the Marquise Sword Residence, they exchanged glances and the three smiled.
This is done in a relaxed manner so that no one pays attention. These three houses were actually allies.
The delegation of six houses entered in a tall and majestic hall. The setting was full of taste and subtlety, yet there were only seven seats.
It was clearly reserved for the hosts, while their details were made to stand.
This did not cause the slightest difference of opinion among the elders.
They are respected in their own homes and even their hosts show them the respect they deserve.
While here, they seem to be treated like air.
Closing my eyes, Leng Wuchang gestured, “Please sit down while I ask the Plantation Master to join you. “
And he's gone.
Yan Bogong, You Wanshan and Lin Rufeng looked at each other before sitting down. Chu Bijun narrowed his eyes and sat down as well.
Yet the elders, made to stand by their side.
Long Yifey and Xie Xiaofeng exchanged glances then looked at their elders, hesitating to take the best course of action. A home leader must fight to respect older people.
It is best to ask for more seats to the Estate Regent. The elders were the pillars of the house, not just servants to watch their host eat while standing by the side.
But his seat was so strange that it left the two confused.
While they were arguing inside, a burly man in a golden ceremonial robe was enchanted with Leng Wuchang behind him.
He is the Plantation Master, Huangpu Tianyuan!
People stood up and paid their respects.
Huangpu Tianyuan countered their attitude and sat down on the seat of honor. Then the others sat down too.
Leng Wuchang chose to stand behind Huangpu Tianyuan, without the slightest bit of complaint.
Huangpu Tianyuan took into account everyone's presence and, even though Leng Wuchang warned him, he did,
he was surprised to see Chu Bijun here the same course, “Guilding Lord Chu, I am relieved to see you in good health.”
“Flower Flower Buildings and Regent Estate are always close by. The recovery of Chu Bijun is a happy event for us, Regent Estate.” Huangpu Tianyuan smiled and clapped his snow-white hands.
Chu Bijun retreated in confusion and blushed cheeks.
Fucking hypocrite!
Supervisor Iris and Supervisor Peony cursed him secretly. If it wasn't for Grandma's early warning, they would have exploded by now.
Huangpu Tianyuan turned to Long Yifey and Xie Xiaofeng, asking with false interests, “Pavilion Master Long, Residence Lord Xie, why are you standing? Do you feel your chair is lacking? I'll change it for you.”
“Eh, no no no!”
Long Yifey refuted, his eyes looking around while answering strangely,
“Tuan Leng was one of the three sages in Tianyu. How can I let him stand? I freely offered him my own seat. ”
Xie Xiaofeng understood its hidden meaning.
On such an important and rare occasion as the Meeting of the Seven Houses, how could the Regent Estate make the usual mistake of forgetting a few seats? It was clearly done intentionally.
Calling it would instantly trigger a trap. As for what it is, no one knows.
However, Leng Wuchang took a twisted approach, hanging the matter over Leng Wuchang's head.
While unable to speak back for Regent Estate accommodation, the least he could do was fight it cleverly.
He-he-he, Pavilion Lord Long still knows how to use old noodles!
Xie Xiaofeng also joined, “Ai, how can I let Pavilion Lord Long give him his seat? Better I give mine myself.”
“Oh, no, no, grab mine!”
“Please, I insist!”
The two continued to go back and forth hoping to make a mountain out of the mole's nest. Yet Huangpu Tianyuan sat there without the slightest disturbance.
Leng Wuchang snorted silently. He cupped his hands on both of them,
“Thank you host for your generous offer, but we have rules here. I can't agree. These seven seats are for the host only. Subjects like me are not worthy of sitting next to master. ”
So that's why!
What were the skills of this regent in dividing his people from the nobles?
Both of them saw the same guess in each other's eyes.
Leng Wuchang was quite cryptic, but hinted at Regent Estate ambitions. He threw away the reason ‘subject and tuan’ to test who was worthy of making a relationship with Huangpu Tianyuan and who was not.
As for who the ruler and the people were among the seven houses, it was very clear.
For the sake of dealing with Tan Wen Hong, they held the Meeting of the Seven Houses, but in truth it was a guise to threaten the six houses into submission!
It is impossible for Regent Estate to violate this on their own initiative. So how can they deal with this?
Long Yifey and Xie Xiaofeng gritted their teeth, sitting with anxious hearts. The elders stood behind them with heavy expressions.
The Regent Estate plans to use Tan Wen Hong as a scapegoat to unite the houses!
Huangpu Tianyuan smiled after everyone sat down, “The reason why I asked you all here today is very clear.
“Lately, Demon King Tan Wen Hong has repeatedly violated the honor of the Seven Nobles Houses.
Starting with the 7th elder of the Valley of Hell, it slowly turned into chaos that engulfed Drifting Flowers Edifice and robbed us of the four elders with his cunning tactics.
The entire Tianyu looked at us as mere clowns. If we let him continue on this path, maybe there will come a time when he will clean one house from its roots.”
“He-he-he, isn't Drifting Flowers City the root of Drifting Flowers Edifice? He-he-he..” Hall Lord could not help but show his ridicule.
Chu Bijun smiled coldly, “Indeed, Drifting Flowers City has been shattered.
However, it was at the expense of the best alchemist in Tianyu. Should this old bone destroy a few more? ”
“Chu Wise, watch your tone!” Yan Bogong slapped the table.
Chu Bijun was quite calm as he stood up, “Huh, there are people here who are more than clear who should think about it?”
“Enough!”
Huangpu Tianyuan shouted, “Fighting among us before our enemy is conquered will only benefit him.”
Huangpu Tianyuan ended their quarrel and continued,
“To that end, I propose, on behalf of seven houses, the Decree of Cleansing the Devil and ending his vile tendencies!”
What's?!
The others gasped, even Chu Bijun and Yan Bogong.
They all had their guesses, but hearing it was still shocking!
The last time the Devil's Cleansing Decree was issued was three centuries ago…
