Why was an Emperor who had hastily ascended to take the blame so terrifying?
"Your Majesty! Please quell your thunderous rage. If your Dragon Body is harmed, won't those vermin get what they wish for?"
Yu Huatian was the first to react, saying respectfully, "As long as Your Majesty gives the command, every member of the Western Agency will not hesitate for a moment to arrest and bring to justice those national traitors who are hoarding supplies and raising prices under the guise of the celestial anomaly!"
"Your Highness, please calm your anger! The Eastern Agency has long been vigilant regarding the factionalism and corruption of the Donglin Party."
Cao Zhengchun also spoke simultaneously, his tone ringing with force, "According to the Eastern Agency's intelligence, the duel between Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng, commonly circulated in the martial world as 'A Sword from the West, a Celestial Fairy Flying from Beyond the Heavens, on the Night of the Full Moon, at the Peak of the Forbidden City,' also seems to hide something suspicious!"
As expected of eunuchs who could leave their names in history, their reaction was astonishing.
In a short moment, they immediately found a target to take the blame—
After all, although they didn't know who the Emperor was upset with, the Emperor's wrath always needed a target for release.
Hearing Cao Zhengchun mention the duel between Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng, a strange smile involuntarily surfaced in Emperor Zhu Yimo's heart.
The Prince of Pingnan, who backed Ye Gucheng, had painstakingly plotted to usurp the throne.
However, under this wave of celestial change, the throne—which all the vassal kings avoided for fear of becoming the last monarch—ultimately landed on his head, the Prince of Nanyang.
Conversely, the Prince of Pingnan, who desperately desired the throne, was the first to be excluded in the minds of the other princes—
After all, while they didn't dare take the throne, it wasn't something just any Tom, Dick, or Harry could ascend to!
At the very least, if you wanted to be Emperor, you needed the qualifications.
The Prince of Pingnan's relation to the previous king was already a bit distant..."Very good!"
"It just so happens that people outside are saying that when a celestial anomaly appears, a demonic creature must emerge, right?"
The Emperor said with a hint of profound meaning on his face, "This demonic creature certainly cannot be something caused by me, who has just become Emperor!"
"In that case, in order to give an explanation to everyone in Great Ming, shouldn't someone step forward to take responsibility?"
Coming to Great Ming and initiating a great slaughter, causing rivers of blood, was an unavoidable step.
This was because, apart from the founding period, Great Ming had far too many people who were not quite human.
Compared to the Magicians of the Type-Moon World, their degree of excellence was not inferior at all.
Plop~
Hearing the hidden meaning in the Emperor's words, the two Directors of the Eastern and Western Agencies gasped sharply. They smelled the scent of mountains of corpses and seas of blood coming from the Emperor's mouth!
However... "Where Your Majesty's sword points, that is the direction of my Eastern Agency!"
"These demonic creatures have brought chaos to Great Ming, leading to the celestial anomaly. They should naturally be offered as a blood sacrifice to appease the wrath of Heaven!"
Without any hesitation, the words of both Directors revealed absolute determination!
Emperor Zhu Yimo nodded in satisfaction, rose from his seat, stood with his hands behind his back, and pondered slightly before saying, "I already know the loyalty and patriotism in both your hearts, but..."
"Your martial foundation is still somewhat lacking. How can you contend with the Martial Dao Prodigies of the new era in the future?"
Speaking of the new era, Emperor Zhu Yimo's eyes opened slightly, and the illusory flow of time transformed into a true River of Time in his sight.
Using his current moment as a baseline, his gaze continuously extended downstream, surveying the endless future.
He saw, within his gaze, Martial Dao Prodigy after Martial Dao Prodigy, who combined the essence of one Martial Dao World after another, sublimating their own Martial Dao time and time again.
Time and again, they turned the impossible into the possible, reaching the pinnacle of sublimation, filled with heroic spirit, vying for supremacy in the Martial Dao!
There was also the old Daoist on Mount Wudang, who, with a scroll of Taiji Diagram during his hundredth birthday celebration, suppressed countless martial experts from the Six Great Sects beneath his Five Finger Mountain, creating another astonishing sight outside Wudang... "Lacking even a sufficient martial foundation, let alone understanding or wisdom..."
The Emperor stared indifferently at the two kneeling before him. The Innate Pure Yang Art, derived in his mind from the Zixia Divine Art of Mount Hua, rapidly combined with the Three Great Suns in the sky and the structure of his current body, undergoing endless deduction... One technique after another concerning the mysteries of the human body, the circulation of vital energy and blood, and the development of acupuncture points, took shape in his mind.
With a slight movement of his mind, he directly selected two of these techniques and branded them into the minds of Cao Zhengchun and Yu Huatian.
