Chapter 1026: Troubled Times
"The charges against the Fito family are stated as follows. First..." Falchuan's voice was neither high nor low, majestic and powerful.
To the ears of the nobles, it was simply eerie and terrifying, like the roar of the God of Death demanding life, and they were all frightened out of their wits.
"No... no!! Your Majesty, spare your life, I was wrong. I am willing to sacrifice all the family treasures for you. I am willing to fight for Xuanyuan Kingdom. Please spare your life..." The patriarch of the Feituo family was so frightened that he kowtowed as if he was pounding garlic.
They begged for mercy, but their heads were broken and bloody.
"Kill!" Meng Fei sat quietly on the throne without even looking at him.
Click!
Another big head rolled to the ground, the body fell down, and blood gurgled out from the neck cavity, dyeing the ground red.
"King Xuanyuan, you are young, but you are so cruel... You are a tyrant, you are a bloody butcher, the Great Xia royal family will not let you go, and sooner or later you will end up like us..."
Seeing this scene, the remaining four heads of the noble families knew that they would not be spared. The rabbit was anxious and bitten, struggling and roaring wildly, wanting to rush over and tear Meng Fei into pieces.
Meng Fei sat quietly on the throne without any reaction.
The sunlight from the Thousand Stars Realm, with a touch of gold, spread over Young Master Meng's body, as beautiful and terrifying as a silent statue.
"The Corrit family's crime statement is as follows, the first one, eleven years ago,..." Falchuan opened the third scroll and continued to read it leisurely.
"Kill!" is the never-changing answer.
Meng Fei turned his back to the crowd and faced the sunset. His voice was calm and without any emotion, as if he was about to kill a pig instead of a powerful noble of the kingdom.

The long swords in the hands of the ten commanders will never show mercy.
"The charges against the Nass family are as follows, Article 1..."

In less than an hour, all the heads of the seven nobles in the Xuanyuan Kingdom who had disobeyed military orders and refused to go to war, without exception, became victims of the sword.
They were so powerful in the past, but now they were like pigs and dogs in the market. Seven corpses were lying across the main hall. The ground under their feet was dyed red with blood, and the gaps along the joints of the stones in the main hall were like streams.
It flowed everywhere, and the air was filled with the smell of blood.
"Hang their heads on the top of the city. If anyone else dares to disobey the military order, these seven people will be role models!" Meng Fei gave an order, and a soldier picked up the seven heads on the ground and knocked them against a rusty iron plate.
In the cage, it was hung on the top of the royal city, and the blood dripped drop by drop under the city wall, warning all the legions and nobles of Xuanyuan Kingdom that this was the consequences of disobeying military orders.
"Falchuan, you send two commanders and a thousand troops to seize the properties of these seven noble houses and use them all as military supplies. Before dark, order the military judge to count the generals who will defend the city today.
The merits of the soldiers and the list of fallen soldiers will be rewarded and compensated according to the standards I mentioned before!"
"Yes, Your Majesty." Falchuan accepted the order and with a wave of his hand, the two commanders behind him immediately led the people to set off.
"Carry their corpses down and hand them over to their tribesmen." Meng Fei looked at the seven headless corpses in front of him, frowned, waved his hands, and some soldiers immediately carried the corpses away.
At this time, Meng Fei stood up and walked step by step to Royev and others who were kneeling on the ground and trembling.
A series of merciless killings frightened the courage of these nobles.
I saw with my own eyes that the acquaintances they had met day and night with just a day ago were turned into corpses under the cold knife, and their heads were hung on the top of the city as a warning. The visual impact of this scene was too shocking.
Four or five nobles were so frightened that they fainted. Prime Minister Royev's fat body pressed down on him, and his knees on the ground seemed to be shattered, but they did not dare to move at all. Big beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.
fall!
Everyone understands that King Xuanyuan is trying to establish his authority!
Using the heads of these disobedient nobles to establish his absolute majesty in the shortest possible time... No one thought that the first thing King Xuanyuan did after he woke up was so horrifying.
With their heads lowered and never daring to raise their heads, the patter of footsteps could be heard in their ears. When they saw the figure in their sight, walking step by step on blood, all the nobles' minds went blank at this moment, as if
Death's scythe hooked on his neck, and even his breathing stopped.
This is the time to wait for the verdict.
Their fate is in the hands of King Xuanyuan.
"You..." The devil's words rang in their ears, their hearts beat violently, and their lips became dry. They listened to the voice and continued: "I have recorded your crimes one by one in the stack of scrolls.
According to the above criminals, no one can escape the punishment of the kingdom's laws."
Poof!
Hearing what Meng Fei said, one of the nobles was so frightened that he became incontinent, with feces and urine flowing out, and the smell was overflowing.
"However, if you can obey the military order this time and lead the guards and private troops to the city to participate in the battle, I will give you a chance. If you can make meritorious deeds in the battle, you can offset your merits and be exempted from the death penalty. If someone commits
I'll do my best, and when the war is over, I'll pretend nothing happened and won't pursue it any further."
"Ah? This is it?"
"Thank you God, thank you heavens, thank you Your Majesty!"
"...If you don't kill us, wuwuwuwu..."
When the nobles heard what Meng Fei said, they were overjoyed, as if they had broken free from the arms of death. They hurriedly praised Meng Fei's kindness and justice loudly. Some people even cried with joy because they had escaped death.
Even Prime Minister Royev couldn't help shouting "Your Highness is merciful" and "Long live Your Highness" as if he was going to die.
The corner of Meng Fei's mouth curved in a strange way, and he remembered a sentence that the storytelling master of his previous life often said. He couldn't help but prolong his tone, and added in a decent way: "However, death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be avoided."
"This king's military order is passed on. Prime Minister Royev is temporarily imprisoned and fined one million black crystal coins, which must be paid within two days. The other major noble families are fined 500,000 black crystal coins, and must be paid within three days. Each has a warrior.
One million to help the kingdom resist the invasion of the Black Dragon Kingdom..."
Meng Fei said this, looked at the nobles who had narrowly escaped death, and said without any doubt: "From today on, your position will be on the frontline battlefield, and I will personally sit in charge and supervise the battle!"
These words were categorical and there was no room for bargaining.
"Let me tell you Your Highness, we are willing to pay money, we are willing to send people, and we are willing to obey Your Highness your call and dispatch in everything..." Some among the nobles couldn't wait to express their stance, with a flattering smile on their round face.
Other nobles narrowly escaped death and survived.
Fortunately, at this time, it feels a little bit distressing for them to provide some money and people.
But they couldn't care about that much anymore, so they all despised the fat man who took the lead in their hearts, and at the same time followed suit and expressed their willingness to obey Meng Fei's orders in everything.
"Okay, please step back. Make preparations early. Before sunrise tomorrow, we will lead people to the front line to fight." Meng Fei waved his hand, and some soldiers escorted Prime Minister Royev down. All the other nobles bowed respectfully, and then
They left the palace as if they were running away, and each one of them was so frightened that they walked with a wave of shaking.
"Starting from today, I will personally lead the expedition. As long as the Black Dragon Empire does not withdraw its troops, I will not return to this royal city for a day." Meng Fei simply moved his headquarters directly to the front line. Anyway, for him, in the
It's the same everywhere, but if you place it there, you can immediately detect the movement of the Black Dragon Kingdom and formulate a strategy to retreat from the enemy.
This move made the officers and soldiers who originally went to the front line even more admired.
More and more people are beginning to believe that only the young king in front of them can stay on the front line, so this battle with a huge disparity in strength may have a bright future.
…
After dealing with the civil strife in Xuanyuan Kingdom, Meng Fei left the royal city, but did not return to the palace. He still had things to deal with. What he urgently needed to do now was to strengthen the strength of Xuanyuan Kingdom.
Different from the lower realm, in this vast Thousand Star Realm, if there are not a few cultivators of the Heavenly King Stage sitting in charge, it is almost impossible for a sect or force to gain a foothold.
He can't always guard Xuanyuan Kingdom, but Xuanyuan Kingdom's high-end combat power is too few now. In order to prevent the loss of power, Meng Fei does not dare to recruit cultivators of the Heavenly King stage, so puppets with superior combat effectiveness become the best choice.
.
However, looking at the Thousand Star Realm, there is only one force that can refine the puppets of the Heavenly King Stage.
