Capítulo 824: Chapter 688: Slandering Princess Shansheng Again

“Hey, Captain Zhang, stop focusing on laughing and let me ask you something…” Fu Fu called out.

The laughter stopped.

Everyone looked at her.

“I just want to ask everyone, is going to Jiangnan, ending here?”

Zhang Tao nodded slightly, “Nominally, it’s not over, but in fact, it already is!”

“Stop imitating him, just speak directly!” Fu Fu was not satisfied with this answer.

Zhang Tao said directly, “Next, we must set foot across the Jiangnan Twelve States. The journey might be even tighter than before, but there won’t be any major battles. All sects will follow the tune set by Mr. Su, delivering cases related to the Ministry of Justice, and clearing out all their assets.”

Fu Fu said, “Because all the sect leaders have expressed their stance, the remaining sects have no backing and don’t dare face our army alone, am I right?”

“Not entirely accurate!” Zhang Tao said, “The accurate statement is that these remaining sects not only have to face our army alone, but they also have to face the pressure from those sect leaders.”

“Huh? Still have to face the sect leaders’ pressure?” Fu Fu didn’t understand, “You mean my husband is pointing a knife at their necks, and they not only have no complaints but also actively issue initiatives and even apply pressure on other sects?”

Kuang Lang curled his lips, a bit disapproving of this girl who casually brought in “my husband” into serious discussions.

Zhang Tao didn’t mind and explained it…

Some things cannot be judged by appearances; you have to see the deeper level.

Those sect leaders issued initiatives, perhaps truly under the knife’s shadow, but once issued, they count for something; otherwise, the Heavenly Dao won’t agree!

The sect leaders have all given up their respective assets.

Can the other sects not give up?

If the other sects don’t give up, wouldn’t it make these sects appear to have a higher status than the sect leaders?

Would the sect leaders agree?

So now, even if we do not pressure these sects, these sect leaders will still pressure them, because the sect leaders absolutely will not allow those mid-sized or lower sects in Jiangnan Land to enjoy better favorable treatment than them, the initiators.

This is the saying “not afraid of scarcity but of inequality”.

Translated into plain language: We the sect leaders have given up, do you dare not give up, Sancai sect? If you dare not, I’ll destroy you, make you arrogant!

Furthermore, the sect leaders have a reason to handle those other sects.

The reason being, you dare not comply with the initiative the sect leaders issued!

What is this? Trying to rebel?

For the sects daring to be arrogant in front of the sect leaders, the method of handling can drive them out of Jiangnan Land…

With this explanation, everyone understood.

Gu Suixin also sighed in admiration, “Brother Zhang, your military path is well learned!”

“Isn’t it?” Zhang Tao was very happy, but his happiness lasted only two or three seconds. He glanced at Gu Suixin, “Unfortunately, your recognition doesn’t count. I’ll be truly happy if your senior brother says I’ve mastered it!”

Ha ha, everyone laughed again.

In the Sancai sect, the atmosphere was very strange.

At first, those elders of the Sancai sect were ready to go to the Sect Master Peak to battle the strong enemies to the death, but they halted when they encountered Du Yuexin’s presence.

Later, sensing many people in the State of “Holding” coming on Jiangnan Road, they rekindled hope, believing these individuals would uphold justice, which became the consensus among the elders.

However, before this consensus could be implemented, the arriving elders in the State of “Holding” issued initiatives one by one.

Upon hearing these initiatives, the bones of the Sancai sect elders chilled to the marrow…

They suddenly felt that their once self-proclaimed number one sect in Jiangnan had been completely abandoned.

In the crowd, the last Sect Master concluded the Heavenly Dao initiative, and Lin Xiaosu smiled, “On behalf of the ten billion people of Jiangnan, I thank all sect masters for their wisdom and understanding!”

All the sect masters returned the gesture in unison, “How dare we, Mr. Su has a heart for the world, which I deeply admire!”

“If Mr. Su should come to Jiangnan again and have some leisure time, perhaps you should visit my sect!”

“Mr. Su is young and elegant, with unrivaled literary talent. My sect has an Immortal Poem Wall; if you could grace us with your presence, it would undoubtedly be a wonderful tale…”

All of a sudden, the atmosphere reached another peak.

Lin Xiaosu smiled and replied, “This time going to Jiangnan involves many affairs, so I will not disturb everyone. If I’m free next year, I will certainly visit your esteemed sects to pay respects to the predecessors on the path…”

“Thus, I take my leave!”

“Farewell!”

The nine Great Power elders bid him farewell, and the deadly Reincarnation Sect finally closed behind them.

The wind rose, the clouds flew majestically, the nine great elders broke through the sky at once, leaving this area, taking a deep breath, feeling a sense of exhaustion throughout their bodies.

It felt like surviving a calamity…

How many years has it been since they last tasted this feeling?

Du Yuexin watched intently as the red spider lily rose from the depths of the Abyss, turning mid-air, crossing thousands of miles, already reaching Moon Lake.

Over fifty warships were faintly visible in the distance.

Du Yuexin slowly turned, “Su’er, are there any obstacles remaining in Jiangnan?”

“None! Mother in law, rest assured as you return to your sect.” Lin Xiaosu bowed.

Du Yuexin gently raised her hand, handing a red spider lily to Lin Xiaosu, “If you encounter danger, crush this flower, and I will sense it.”

“Thank you, Mother in law!” Lin Xiaosu accepted it.

This flower, at first glance, looks like a flower.

But upon receiving it, he knew it was a strand of Du Yuexin’s hair transformed.

“You’re about to meet Feng Ji, Su’er, do you have a message for her?” Du Yuexin asked.

“Tell her this!” Lin Xiaosu replied, “In regards to taking on the calamity, I have already found a path, over there, there’s no need to take unnecessary risks with unconventional means.”
