Chapter 92: Let Them Taste the Suffering of the Commoners
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
Qingzhou – Provincial Capital
Inspection Division Hall
Su Yang sat unceremoniously in the main seat, with the Martial Enforcement
Division and the Inspection Division members below.
Martial Enforcement Division controlled the military forces, while the
Inspection Division controlled the general situation…
A total of twenty people stood in their original positions, not daring to make a sound.
Su Yang, with an expressionless face, surveyed them, making them feel extremely uncomfortable under his gaze.
However, they were fully aware of Qingzhou’s current situation and dared not speak loudly.
In short, nobody dared to speak loudly when those from above were present.
The situation was just too dire…
They didn’t have the face to speak up.
“I have a simple purpose here, to solve the food shortage and eliminate the evil cultivators.”
In the quiet hall, Su Yang was the first to speak.
However, as soon as he spoke, the expressions of those present became very strange.
His purpose was simple?
“First, I want to know where the official grain sent by the court has gone, who is embezzling it, who is tampering with it. Each of you, give me a list.”
Naturally, Su Yang did this to mislead eavesdroppers.
Xia Xuan had inserted spies, but he couldn’t directly make them come forward to talk; doing so would naturally expose their identities.
At the same time, what others wrote could be used as a reference; the key was to look at what Shen Yunfei wrote.
The Bai Family was the main culprit, but there were definitely some accomplices.
For these people who profited from the disaster relief food, Su Yang had only one goal.
Exterminate them all!
Otherwise, they wouldn’t be worthy of the starving commoners, their skeletal bodies withering away!
Upon Su Yang’s orders, the twenty people in the room began writing according to his instructions.
Soon, lists were handed over to Su Yang.
After a quick look, Su Yang’s gaze swept over the crowd and finally landed on one of the Four-Directions Envoys.
“Bai Mojie, you’re from the Bai Family, right?”
“Yes, my lord.”
Although Bai Mojie felt something was amiss, he didn’t take it too seriously.
Great Xia Sword Immortal?
Just a Heaven Transformation Realm cultivator.
His family’s Patriarch was also in the Heaven Transformation Realm.
Pfft!
Right after Bai Mojie answered, he suddenly felt intense pain all over his body.
He lowered his head in disbelief.
His dantian… was ruined?
His cultivation was ruined?
This sudden turn of events shocked everyone present, but at the same time, a sense of satisfaction surged within them!
Well done!
However, some people’s hearts skipped a beat, and they began to worry.
What was going on?
Seeking justice?
“Liu Changji, who is that?”
As soon as Su Yang spoke, one person’s legs started trembling.
But all eyes were already on him.
He knew that someone had betrayed him; his actions with the Bai Family had been revealed.
Even though he was reluctant, he could only step forward.
“My lord, I am…”
Sword intent permeated his body, shattering his dantian!
“Well, take these two away, treat them well. Serve them thin porridge every three days, until they starve to death.”
“Understood?”
Zhu Shouwu trembled, his methods were ruthless!
In a world where even beggars ate their fill, they would be starved to death!
However, when he thought of Qingzhou’s current situation, Zhu Shouwu felt relieved.
These fellows deserved it; letting them leave full would be unfair to the starving Qingzhou commoners.
“I understand, my lord.”
After Zhu Shouwu responded respectfully, Su Yang turned his attention elsewhere, and the atmosphere eased slightly.
This feeling was like the King of Hell personally calling out names; how could they not be afraid?
Bai Mojie and Liu Changji were taken away.
The guards who came in didn’t know what was happening, but they sensed that something was off. They obediently took Bai Mojie and Liu Changji away.
“Zhu Shouwu, Peng Li, gather all the Martial Enforcement Division and Inspection Division members. Anyone involved in the diversion of disaster relief food should be arrested without exception.”
Peng Li was the leader of the Qingzhou Inspection Division, a cultivator of the Celestial Phenomenon Realm.
“I will handle the Bai Family; as for Heaven Transformation Realm and Celestial Phenomenon Realm cultivators, I will help you deal with them. You will be in charge of the thirteen counties of Qingzhou.”
“Any problems?”
“Please rest assured, we will do our utmost.”
“Good, remember, every participant in this event must be captured and brought to justice. Don’t let them die too easily.”
“We understand.”
After Su Yang made these arrangements, he immediately prepared to visit the Bai Family.
Zhu Shouwu would lead the team alongside him.
And thus, a grand operation that would shake Qingzhou was set in motion with just a few sentences from Su Yang.
There were no complex procedures, no need for approvals here and there.
Su Yang was well aware of the Bai Family’s intention to hoard the disaster relief food.
The practice of the Destruction Path absorbed life force.
Food contained life force, the special energy required by the Destruction Path’s cultivation.
Thus, the main reason the hoarded food was intercepted by the Bai Family was to use it for their cultivation.
In their eyes, the deaths of the countless commoners in Qingzhou had nothing to do with them.
They couldn’t even see it.
While Qingzhou was on the brink of collapse, the Bai Family reveled in luxury. How could they understand the suffering of the common people?
At this moment, Su Yang had already led his men to the Bai Family’s doorstep.
Over a thousand Martial Enforcement Division troops were behind him.
This scene was completely foreign to the two guards at the Bai Family’s entrance, causing them to panic.
“What’s the meaning of this, gentlemen from the Martial Enforcement
Division?” One of the guards finally mustered some courage and asked.
Without any further ado, Zhu Shouwu replied. With Su Yang backing him and with the Emperor’s intention, he had no fear of the Bai Family!
“Capture them all!”
With this command, the two guards were easily subdued.
The Martial Enforcement Division troops then swiftly encircled the entire Bai estate.
Led by the troops, they entered the Bai residence first.
Su Yang strolled along behind them.
The commotion naturally alerted the Bai Family inside.
Soon. Bai Haivin. the Patriarch of the Bai Family. led a large group of people out.
“Zhu Shouwu, what do you mean by this?” Bai Haiyin’s expression was stern as he questioned Zhu Shouwu without any courtesy.
Before Zhu Shouwu could respond, a sword intent broke through the air, instantly shattering Bai Haiyin’s dantian.
Bai Haiyin didn’t even have a chance to evade before he fell to the ground, unable to utter a single word.
The Bai disciples around didn’t even know what had happened.
Zhu Shouwu looked back at Su Yang, who stood calmly. Zhu Shouwu couldn’t help but take a cold breath.
So strong!
Wasn’t this beyond the Heaven Transformation Realm?
There was only a slim gap between him and the Heaven Transformation Realm, so he didn’t believe the difference should be so significant.
This single strike, not to mention Bai Haiyin, he wouldn’t be able to withstand it either.
Was the information passed down by the Emperor wrong?
Doubts filled Zhu Shouwu’s mind. However, his actions didn’t slow down.
“Capture them all!”
“Disciples of the Bai Family, all of you have your dantians crippled. Bai Family servants, detain them for questioning. Those who resist will be treated as accomplices!”
Su Yang stood quietly, waiting in his place.
These small fries didn’t need him to make a move.
He only needed to deal with Heaven Transformation Realm and Celestial Phenomenon Realm cultivators. This was where the importance of his subordinates came in.
If he did all these tasks alone, it would be quite troublesome and time-consuming.
After restoring the heavenly path behind him, it was also time to consider recruiting some powerful subordinates.
Su Yang thought to himself in his heart..
