Chapter 60 Turning Point
For most people in Xiangzhou, the Shengzong has been erected in his heart since childhood, symbolizing fairness and justice and other beauty.
No matter how bad the real world is or how terrifying the disaster may be brewing, as long as you think of the Holy Sect, hope will still be retained in the future.
In such a holy place, it would be fine if it was not worshipped, but someone was conspiring to destroy the Holy Sect here!
Not to mention Chen Qingming at this time, even Zhao Chenlu's newly acquired daughter Zhao Lingbo looked incredible.
After serving Zhao Chenlu for more than ten years, she certainly knew that the willful and arbitrary behavior of this Jinyu City Lord was already the unquestionable number one in the world, but the arrogance of this was so arrogant that it was really beyond imagination.
That is the leader of the immortal Taoism who led the Three Academy and Seven Aristocratic families to sweep the world and unify Xiangzhou and maintain the order of two thousand years! His overlord position has never been shaken at all!
In any era, the title of No. 1 in the world has always been the leader of the Holy Sect and has never fallen behind for two thousand years. Even if he is as talented as Zhao Chenlu himself, his several competitions with the leader of the Holy Sect ended in failure.
Now Zhao Chenlu has actually made plans to destroy the Holy Sect by force?
This is no longer overestimating one's own ability, it's simply crazy!?
"It's just the planning stage at the moment, and it doesn't have to be implemented." Zhao Chenlu glanced at the dull faces of the two people beside her and smiled and comforted, "If they were willing to be obedient, of course I would spare their lives."
Zhao Lingbo asked: "This is not a question of whether to forgive your life or not. Miss, please be cautious! That is the Holy Sect that has ruled Xiangzhou for two thousand years. It is impossible to defeat it by such a piece of paper talk!"
Zhao Chenlu said: "So what if you rule Xiangzhou for two thousand years?"
"This means that the Holy Sect has an unparalleled foundation and cannot simply measure its true strength based on the surface!"
"Uncomparable foundation? How could you say such stupid words?" Zhao Chenlu looked disappointed, "After all, you have been the personal maid of the Lord of Jinyu City for so many years. Don't you know what's going on with this huge strength? Two thousand years of history is not only the Holy Sect. The Zhao family in Jinyu City has also studied the history of more than two thousand years. If this bloodline passed down from the Jiuzhou era will only be older than the Holy Sect, but does Jinyu City have any great foundation?"
"this……"
"The history of the Jinyu Zhao family has been more than two thousand years. There are countless bans in the Jinyu City, but the bans in the disrepair have remained in the remaining amount of effectiveness. Don't you know? I remember you read the audit report, and pretended to understand it."
Zhao Lingbo was speechless. Shortly after Zhao Chenlu took office, she personally conducted a large inventory of Jinyucheng. All the large formations that had a long history and were claimed to be Jinyucheng's trump card were re-checked. The result was shocking. She couldn't understand most of the report data at all! But in order not to let the master see that her cultural level was not enough, she used amazing acting skills to pass it over.
Unexpectedly, it was exposed from the beginning!
"The rapid progress of Jinyu City's comprehensive strength has been happening in nearly fifteen years. The upgrade of the city protection formation was led by me ten years ago. The seventeen chain chain was invented by me by reference to the setting of the seventeenth guardian of the Holy Sect. The transformation of the earth veins was completed by me five years ago. Everything in Jinyu City is thanks to me and has nothing to do with the inheritance of the past two thousand years."
"So, history is not as good as it gets, and the foundation is not as pure as it becomes. This principle should be obvious." Zhao Chenlu said, "There are two thousand years of history in Xiangzhou. The immortal civilization has been developing. Two thousand years ago, even the monks in the Fanyun Realm were considered first-class experts. At that time, immortal treasures were a myth and spiritual treasures were legends. It was difficult for ordinary leaders of aristocratic families to have one or two magic weapons that could be used. At that time, the things passed down at that time were only archaeological value at most. Moreover, the development of immortal technology is getting faster and faster. The magic theory fifty years ago now seems to be full of loopholes, and the theoretical common sense of a hundred and two hundred years ago now seems ridiculous. So those long-term
The secrets of the distant martial arts are naturally meaningless. Finally, any organization has operating costs, and the Holy Sect is no exception. One sect leader, two deputy sect leaders, seventeen guardians, and many other elders and messengers. The Holy Sect has to feed too many cultivators, and these require resources. It is true that the Holy Sect’s industry is extremely developed and has monopolized most of the prehistoric relics, but compared to their expenses, the income level is not particularly abundant. Two thousand years cannot allow them to accumulate gold and silver. According to my recent estimate, the Holy Sect has had a very serious deficit in the past two years because of the many land reclamation periods, and it is impossible to have the ability to create a trump card that will change fate against the will of heaven and change fate."
Zhao Lingbo and Shen Qingming nodded subconsciously while listening.
"So, if there is no problem, just prepare for the next step."
"Next step?"
"Yes, since the policy has been established, I will complete the finishing work of Jinyu City as soon as possible and focus on guiding the Holy Sect."
The last day of April 2018 was long and incredible.
When most of the golden and jade people returned home, they felt as if they had spent more than two weeks.
There were too many things that happened on this day. First, the final chapter of the musical performed in the square in front of the city lord's mansion: Zhao Chenlu's lover personally appeared to defend her, and then there was a one-sided battle. The public trial meeting carefully prepared by Zhao Hongwu and others became the other party's show. In the end, Zhao Lingbo boldly launched the Moon-Breaking Sword Formation, but he was still unable to turn the world back. The suppressed city lord escaped with the support of the devout faith of millions of people and regained the situation.
However, there was no bloody cleaning or earth-shaking sweep afterwards. Zhao Chenlu gave up everyone lightly and brought down the curtain of extreme starts and ends for this coup that lasted for more than ten days.
However, this is the best. Although the Jinyu Man is enthusiastic and good, he also knows that the fewer political turmoils, the better. Gods and mortals suffer when fighting each other. No matter how rich and powerful a city is, it cannot withstand repeated troubles.
From now on, everything will return to the original, and although some people will feel regretful, more people will still breathe a sigh of relief.
People often say that only when you lose it can you know how to cherish it. The same is true for the golden and jade man to see Zhao Chenlu.
When Zhao Chenlu was in power, people disliked her arrogance and arbitraryness, and even more disgusted with her willful and arbitrary behavior. However, when the public trial meeting began and Jinyucheng was to truly say goodbye to Zhao Chenlu's era, people realized what Jinyucheng would be like without her.
Therefore, it is really a blessing for the golden and jade man to welcome the city lord Zhao Chenlu again.
Just after most people's tense nerves can finally relax and fall asleep comfortably, a new upheaval is brewing quickly.
Then it exploded the next morning.
Early in the morning of May 1.
When the morning light reflected on the golden city walls and re-embellished the golden jade city with the luster of wealth, the voice of the city lord Zhao Chenlu was heard everywhere in the city.
"At 10 o'clock in the morning, I have something important to announce to all the golden jade men."
This notice came as willful as ever, neither caring about how many people would sleep, nor how many people would hear it just by saying it once. In short, this is only once, it will never be outdated.
However, at 10 o'clock in the morning, most of the golden and jade men were still waiting seriously at the various notification projection points in the streets and alleys, waiting for important matters for Zhao Chenlu.
On the second day of the remedy, notices issued to the whole city must be very important.
From former Provisional Government leaders Zhao Hongwu and Zhao Hongwen to the slums of Jinyu City, all of them were paying attention to Zhao Chenlu's notice.
Some people speculate that perhaps Zhao Chenlu will eventually liquidate the rebels.
They were let go yesterday, perhaps because Zhao Chenlu had just escaped from the trap and was not strong enough, so she had to use a delaying strategy. Now after a night of rest, she has become the omnipotent gold and jade demon king again, and can start killing unscrupulously.
This speculation was naturally collectively opposed by the Jinyu elders led by Zhao Hongwu. People said that Zhao Chenlu was kind by nature and would never make such a cruel decision... If someone had to pay the price for it, then it would obviously be: Zhao Hongwu/Zhao Hongwen/Zhao Hongxue (differed according to the reporter)!
Some people also speculate that perhaps Zhao Chenlu was going to retaliate against Jinyu City during the coup, and the intercity war was about to break out... This speculation was opposed by some peace-loving Jinyu people, but it was unanimously supported by Zhao Hongwu and others. People said that it was unbearable that some people dared to interfere in Jinyu's internal affairs while Jinyu's internal affairs were being tolerated. Please ask the city lord to send troops to rebel immediately, and they are willing to be the pioneer!
In short, for a while, there were many different opinions in Jinyu City, but they were all unaware of the problem. They could only wait patiently for Zhao Chenlu to announce the answer.
As countless people were looking forward to it, Zhao Chenlu's figure appeared on time at every projection point in the city.
"I'm going to quit."
The simple five words made the whole city fall into a long silence.
Zhao Chenlu continued to talk to herself.
"I originally planned to give the position of the city lord to Zhao Hongwu, but I don't know that he has no courage to go ahead. Maybe he will even have to waste his five limbs to show his loyalty. So I'll leave it to Zhao Hongxue. Anyway, this is his old job 20 years ago, so it shouldn't be too bad. Moreover, I have built such a good foundation for Jinyu City over the years, so it doesn't matter if I retreat a little. In short, please welcome the new city lord to take office."
As he said that, Zhao Chenlu had already begun to applaud without sincerity.
Then he put down his hand and grabbed it to the side. Five fingers penetrated the space and grabbed his biological father who was hiding in his room and drinking directly with the back of his neck.
Chapter completed!
