A burst of rays of light bloomed in the sky above the Palace of Samsara.
Under the glow of the rays, there were figures with terrifying auras, all dressed in luxurious clothes.
They were hunched over and breathing heavily, as if they were absorbing something.
They didn't stop until the glow completely dissipated, and then they all knelt on the ground and shouted loudly.
"Thank you for the great reward!"
"good!"
There was a sound in the endless void, and then there was no sound at all.
People left in a hurry, as if the benefits they had just gained were not yet stable, and they all went to retreat to practice.
"Supreme has been given such a great opportunity, and he actually supports people from my heavenly palace! This is really a great act of justice! We cannot live up to Supreme's expectations. We have ordered to go down and increase the collection of the entire reincarnation domain by five times!"
A figure in a golden robe shouted loudly.
"Yes, sir!"
"grown ups!"
"What else?"
"There are recent rumors that there is a little trouble in the reincarnation domain."
"Little trouble?"
"It is said that a force is annexing other cities and rapidly expanding its power..."
"Oh? Those pigs and dogs in the reincarnation domain still have such courage? Are they from which city?"
"I don't know, this news has not been confirmed."
"Send someone to investigate. If the news is true, all the people in the city who participated in this matter will be killed. No one will be left alive."
"yes!"
…
Iron Blood Imperial City.
Tie Yunfei walked out of the warehouse and let out a strong breath.
He has prepared supplies and is preparing for a one-year retreat, but in view of the turbulent situation in the Samsara Domain, he must make arrangements for the city's defense and follow-up work.
He hurried to the hall. At this moment, Wen Changlong and other ministers had already received his order and were standing in the hall waiting.
"Meet the Emperor!"
Seeing Tie Yunfei arriving, everyone saluted one after another.
"Well." Tie Yunfei waved his hand casually, then sat down, and was about to speak when he saw Changlong standing up, clasping his fists and saying: "Your Majesty, I have just received news that the Tiangong will be in the next two days.
Yue, to the city of the entire reincarnation domain
Carry out no less than ten levies, and the amount of resources collected each time is ten times that of the previous one."
"What?"
Tie Yunfei was stunned on the spot, opened his eyes suddenly, and looked at everyone in surprise.
"Is this news...reliable?"
"It's absolutely true...the news has spread in the Samsara Realm. It is said that it was an order personally issued by the Lord of Heavenly Palace."
Wen Changlong said.
"how so?"
Tie Yunfei's face turned livid, he clenched his teeth and was filled with resentment: "These blood-sucking worms! Do they know the consequences of doing this? They are going to push the entire people of the Samsara Domain to death!"
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but they were all silent.
Wen Changlong clasped his fists and shouted: "Your Majesty, the matter has come to an end. Please open the warehouse, take the supplies, and pay them to the Heavenly Palace!"
"Open the warehouse?"
Tie Yunfei frowned: "What? Do you think there are a lot of materials in the warehouse?"
"Your Majesty, if we don't open the warehouse, how can we pay for so many supplies?"
"What about the tens of thousands of people in our Iron-Blooded Imperial City? Now is the time to contribute to the Iron-Blooded Imperial City's service. Can't they use some of their savings to deal with the blood-sucking worms in Tiangong?"
Tie Yunfei hummed. "Sir, the previous payments have emptied the resources in the hands of the people of our imperial city. They really can't get them out. The last payment has forced many people out of the city to look for resources.
, if the people are allowed to dig it out this time, it will only
I’m afraid everyone will leave the city!”
Li Kai couldn't stand it anymore and stood up suddenly, clasping his fists and shouting.
"presumptuous!"
Tie Yunfei was furious, slapped the handrail hard, and shouted angrily: "What do you mean? Are you forcing me on the emperor?"
"Your Majesty, this is not what we meant!"
Wen Changlong said quickly, and then winked at Li Kai to signal him not to speak.
Li Kai's eyes were full of anger and he wanted to speak, but when he saw Wen Changlong's eyes, he hesitated for a moment, and finally clasped his fists and stepped aside.
"Your Majesty, Captain Li has an upright temperament. He just told the truth. It's not that we don't want the people of the Iron Blood Imperial City to contribute. It's true that we won't receive much supplies if we continue to collect...
…”
Wen Changlong sighed.
Although Tie Yunfei was unhappy, he obviously had a point of view in his heart and knew that Wen Changlong was not exaggerating.
After thinking for a while, Tie Yunfei took a deep breath and said: "That's all, this city lord will take some supplies from the warehouse."
Hearing that Changlong was overjoyed, he quickly knelt down and shouted: "Thank you so much, sir."
"But we can't last long just relying on the resources in the warehouse, so I will only provide half of the supplies."
Tie Yunfei hummed.
Everyone was startled.
"Your Majesty, the remaining materials that need to be paid..."
"Let the whole city go out to look for it."
"What? Go out... out of the city to search?"
"What? Is there a problem?"
Tie Yunfei's pupils were filled with domineering and killing intent.
"No problem, no problem! This method works! This method works!"
Wen Changlong clasped his fists repeatedly, and then winked to the left and right.
Everyone also saluted and expressed their agreement. "Since there is no problem, it is settled. Li Kai, please arrange it immediately and let the whole city prepare. Early tomorrow morning, everyone will go out of the city to look for resources! Tell them that this is theirs.
When it’s time to contribute to the Iron-Blooded Imperial City! At the same time
Warn them not to think about hiding private goods or escaping from the imperial city. If the emperor finds out, they will be killed without mercy!" Tie Yunfei issued the order seriously.
"Follow your orders!" Li Kai suppressed his anger and said. "Born here and raised here, they enjoy the protection of the imperial city. Now is the time to serve the imperial city. You can supervise it. Wen Taishi, this emperor is going to retreat, Iron-blooded
I will leave the affairs of the imperial city to you for the time being. If you have any questions, please come to me.
I report that no one is allowed to disturb you except you."
"As commanded."
Wen Changlong cupped his fists.
Tie Yunfei then left with a gloomy face.
After Tie Yun flew away, everyone's uncontrollable anger emerged, but no one dared to say a word. They all looked at Wen Changlong.
Wen Changlong stood silently for a long time, and he didn't know how long it took before he slowly turned around and looked at Li Kai with complicated eyes.
Obviously, he was unwilling to reach this point. "Captain Li, the Imperial Guards have been following the Iron Emperor for many years. It is impossible for them to be involved in this matter, but I don't want too much bloodshed and bloodshed."
Sacrifice, I will find a way to trap them, and you... follow the plan
thing!"
Wen Changlong said hoarsely.
"Okay, Master Wen, when will we take action?" Li Kai asked hurriedly.
"Right now." Wen Changlong's eyes flashed, but his voice was sonorous and powerful...
