Seeing the molten flame elemental man appear, the ten elders from the headquarters and the elders in the jury box all stood up.
Amidst the clattering sounds of tables and chairs, these powerful masters bowed and said:
"I've met the gang leader!"
Immediately, the sound of chairs moving became louder, and more than a hundred deacons and members of the spiritual realm family in the audience almost jumped up from their chairs.
Their faces were full of fear, they tensed their bodies, bowed their heads, and shouted:
"I've met the gang leader!"
Gang leader? Gang leader of the Red Fire Gang?! Zhang Yuanqing breathed in the scorching air and looked at the flame elemental man in shock.
He did not expect that this trial would attract demigods, nor did he expect that he and the supreme leader of the Five Elements Alliance would meet for the first time in this way.
He looked carefully at the gang leader, one of the five alliance leaders.
Although it was a body made of "molten"-like elemental substances, the facial features and clothing were as detailed as a real flesh-and-blood body, so he could clearly see the gang leader's appearance.
——Two meters tall, wearing loose training clothes, with red hair reaching his shoulders, a square face, a beard, and thick eyebrows.
If one ignores the coercion of a demigod-level powerhouse, the first impression this gang leader gives is that of a powerful gangster.
Leader Jiang ignored the elders and deacons and looked at Zhang Yuanqing:
"Are you Yuanshi Tianzun?"
Zhang Yuanqing quickly put away his arrogance and rebelliousness, thinking about whether to bow down to the other party, but he just said the bold words "You can kill but don't bow down".
At this time, I bowed my head and paid homage. How can I save my face?
"It's me." Then he stiffened his neck and looked back at the Molten Flame Elemental Man fearlessly.
Unexpectedly, the alliance leader nodded with satisfaction:
"You do have some character, much better than this bunch of losers who can only bend down and bow their heads."
As he spoke, he turned his head, looked at the ten elders at the headquarters, and roared again:
"I said, what the hell are you doing? Cai Qinhe, answer me, what the hell are you doing?"
Elder Cai straightened up and looked at the gang leader with dark eyes, "Judge Yuanshi Tianzun."
"It's a fool's errand to judge your grandma," Gang Leader Jiang cursed, "Let me go."
Elder Cai was neither humble nor arrogant: "Gang leader, you cannot interfere in the affairs of the alliance. This is a rule set by you yourself."
"Fuck your mother's bullshit!" The Molten Flame elemental man was of extremely high quality and vomited fragrantly:
"We established this rule back then to allow you to better manage the Five Elements Alliance, not to let you destroy the foundation of the Five Elements Alliance.
"If you don't care anymore, the gang I founded and the empire I built will be ruined by you.
"Look what you ten bastards have done these years? A few years ago, I heard someone say that if you want to be promoted to an elder, you must join the ten major factions. There are no factions outside the ten factions, why don't you go to heaven?"
He turned his head and "poofed" at the ground, spitting out a large lump of lava that burned through the floor.
The elders in the hall neither dared to get angry nor speak out about such a vulgar move.
The top ten elders lowered their eyebrows and narrowed their eyes, looking extremely docile.
Unlike the female marshal, the new demigod, the "vulgar person" in front of him is the founder of the Crimson Fire Gang, one of the first batch, and there is no one with more seniority than him in the world.
Not to mention the elders of the major branches, even the ten elders of the headquarters are his juniors and have "grew up" listening to his legends.
The Molten Flame Elemental Man spat and cursed:
“When engaging in party disputes and internal strife, all power must be firmly held in the hands. When encountering those who are disobedient, the first reaction is to beat them. If they are docile, they will be wooed into the faction and given a sweet date.
"In the past twenty years, every time a new force emerged, you immediately eliminated it and then divided it up. The situation with Yuanshi Tianzun has happened more than once or twice. How was Fu Qingyang sent to Songhai in the first place?
"You think that the Fu family is too powerful and that Fu Qingyang is arrogant and difficult to control and needs to be polished, so you throw him to Songhai to be 'sharpened'. Do you really think I don't know? I just don't care about things, not a fool.
"When I took over the mountain and became the king, your grandfather was not even born yet."
He looked at the jury again, his anger boiling more and more:
"Why didn't the elders of my Red Fire Gang attend the jury? Does it mean that I look down on my Red Fire Gang?
"A dozen elders and a dozen masters all know what is going on. No one stands up to speak for Yuanshi Tianzun, and no one dares to offend these ten little brats at the headquarters."
The elders of the jury lowered their heads in shame. They had not been scolded like this for many years.
"Di Hong, Cai Qinhe, Miao Sen, Lie Yan, and the God of Hundred Wars." He named them one by one, scanned the ten elders at the headquarters one by one, and sneered:
"You are much better at training dogs than I am."
The deacons lowered their heads and felt anxious in their hearts. These words were not something they could listen to.
But in addition to fear and uneasiness, excitement quietly surged in my heart. The young genius was suppressed by the powerful, and the leader of the alliance personally appeared to deliver justice. This kind of scene may never happen again in his life.
Guan Ya, Xie Lingxi and others were ecstatic.
With the support of the alliance leader, Yuanshi Tianzun can successfully survive this disaster.
Miao Teng'er was also very happy, even though her grandfather was among the ten elders who were angrily reprimanded by the alliance leader.
The Great Elder Di Hong said with shame: "We have betrayed the trust of the organization, please forgive me, leader."
The other nine elders followed and bowed, and Elder Cai said solemnly:
"Gang leader, Yuanshi Tianzun does have an ambiguous professional relationship with the evil, which is beyond the scope of undercover. Although Cai Longshen is at fault, the crime is not worthy of death, and Yuanshi Tianzun has a precedent of killing colleagues without authorization, and he is a habitual offender.
"Everyone should be severely punished based on reason and law."
The Molten Flame Elemental Man sneered:
"Young master, what are you doing with me? You're talking about the law, right? Your grandson doesn't know whether to live or die, and angers the insane Yuanshi Tianzun. According to the law, Yuanshi Tianzun should be acquitted.
"Cai Qinhe, you went all out to hold this trial, isn't it because you can't swallow it? Your grandson almost killed my son, I can't swallow it either, am I going to put you on trial too!"
Elder Cai finally changed his expression: "Gang leader, are you threatening me?"
"Threat? I will not threaten an ant that can be easily crushed to death. You are not worthy!" The Molten Flame elemental man glanced at the ten elders with his sharp eyes, "It seems that these two decades of decentralization have made you so lawless.
.”
"I don't have to interfere in this trial. I will abide by the rules I have set. But I must warn you that the position of the tenth elder in the headquarters is given to you by me. If I feel that you are not worthy of staying in this position, I can always
Take it away.”
After saying that, his body disintegrated into bright sparks and then extinguished.
The ten elders headed by Di Hong loudly said: "Congratulations to the leader of the gang."
The gang leader left, but the residual heat in the air seemed to still remain in everyone's hearts, and no one dared to speak.
In the silent silence, Great Elder Di Hong looked at Elder Cai again, "Elder Cai, do you want to uphold the original verdict?"
Elder Cai was silent for a long time and said slowly:
"Take Yuanshi Tianzun into custody, the jury, and the audience exit."
All the elders and deacons bowed one after another. Immediately, the projector on the ceiling went out and the beams of light disappeared.
The originally packed trial hall was filled with only the ten old men and guards in the blink of an eye.
Soon, Zhang Yuanqing was also taken out of the trial hall by the guards.
Zhang Yuanqing returned to the interrogation room.
The guards brought him here and left without anyone watching him or handcuffing him. They were very lax.
At this time, Zhang Yuanqing felt the burning pain on his face. He raised his hand tremblingly and touched his cheek, grinning in pain.
His face was burned.
When I touch my eyebrows and hair, they all appear to be scorched and frizzy.
"It was just a long-distance contact, and I was burned. This is just a trivial avatar. The power of the demigod is really terrifying."
Zhang Yuanqing muttered in his heart and took out the mountain god's scepter.
He pressed the emerald gem at the top of the scepter against his chest to activate the healing function of the item.
As the green light swept away, the burning face became cool, the burning pain disappeared, and the injuries on both arms healed quickly.
——With Xingguan's powerful self-healing ability, the injury on his arm is almost healed.
The next step was to endure the desire to reproduce. He sat calmly on the interrogation chair and allowed time to pass slowly.
Half an hour later, the door of the interrogation room opened, and a young investigator came in, put the mobile phone sealed in the bag on the table, and said:
"You can leave! After discussion with the elders at the headquarters, they believe that although your behavior in the dungeon was inappropriate, it was excusable. Collusion with evil professions was a misunderstanding."
Zhang Yuanqing, who had expected it, laughed:
"Have you finished discussing it with me? You seem to be very unconvinced!"
This young man who was obviously from Elder Cai's faction repeated with a straight face:
"you can go now."
Zhang Yuanqing chuckled, waved his phone, snapped his fingers, and turned into starlight.
Starlight rose in the flower garden at the edge of the investigation department's gate. Zhang Yuanqing lowered his head to look at the tall tent and quickly walked out of the yard of the investigation department building.
Why hasn't it recovered after half an hour? It seems that the gold inventory is a bit exaggerated. Zhang Yuanqing muttered in his heart.
This is why he chose Star Escape to leave.
Walking out of the gate, Zhang Yuanqing saw a familiar business car parked on the side of the road at a glance, with the door open and Mr. Qian, dressed in white as snow, sitting inside.
"Boss" Zhang Yuanqing smiled and quickly approached, "You received the notice of my acquittal so soon?"
Fu Qingyang watched him get into the car, close the door, start the business car and merge into the traffic flow.
Mr. Qian said calmly:
"No notification is needed, Gang Leader Jiang was invited by me."
I knew that Zhang Yuanqing consciously flattered the boss and expressed his admiration for the boss, "The boss is worthy of being the boss. He can even invite the leader of the alliance, but the leader does not care about affairs."
"So it must be Gang Leader Jiang." Fu Qingyang opened the car refrigerator, took out the goblet, and while gesturing to his subordinates to pour the wine, he said:
"If you ask that trash Marshal to stand up for you, you will be using your power to overwhelm others and will not be able to convince the crowd. But it is reasonable and reasonable for the leader of the gang to stand up for his heirs, and he has a good reputation. Moreover, Gang Leader Jiang has a violent and upright temperament, and because of Jiang Ju's relationship,
Easier to be persuaded.
"If it were the other three, even if I asked you to bow to them, it would be difficult to persuade them. I wouldn't even be able to see them."
Are you mocking me for bowing to me? Zhang Yuanqing poured wine for the boss, in a happy mood:
"Elder Cai stole the chicken but lost the rice this time. Well, I'm sorry, I still couldn't control myself."
Although he survived the disaster safely, he still made the headquarters see his betrayal.
From a certain point of view, Elder Cai's goal has actually been achieved, but he only killed 800 enemies and suffered a loss of 1,000.
Fu Qingyang glanced at him sideways, "I've already expected it."
Zhang Yuanqing felt a little ashamed.
Fu Qingyang took a sip of red wine and said calmly:
"In the past, I always used to ask you from my own perspective, to be low-key, tolerant, to think twice before doing anything, and not to act on impulse. This is my style of doing things, but you and I are different.
"I can't use my principles to ask you. What's the difference between this and the headquarters asking you to bow your head?"
Having said this, he glanced at his subordinates who were beaming with joy, shook his head and said:
"After this incident, you should know the Five Elements Alliance better. The Ten Elders have absolute hegemony in the officialdom. There are only five alliance leaders who can suppress them, but the alliance leaders just don't do anything.
"The elders of each major branch have been domesticated.
"This is not wrong. Hegemony can reduce internal friction and make the organization more cohesive. However, it has a long lifespan and the rule of ten old guys will make the officialdom gradually become rigid and lack vitality.
"There are huge problems within the officialdom."
Zhang Yuanqing instantly realized what Fu Qingyang meant, "Boss, I will help you enter the headquarters, eliminate the disease, and reform the Five Elements Alliance."
Fu Qingyang smiled:
"Yuanshi, you do not lack wisdom, but your character is not suitable for an official career. You should be glad that the Five Elements Alliance is not a real officialdom. After all, force is the most important thing.
"You are now at level six. You will enter the Killing Dungeon at the end of the year and be promoted to Dominator. By then, even if your whole body has bone hyperplasia, you don't have to be afraid."
In the saint stage, they are at best the mainstay of large organizations.
But it's different when it comes to domination. As the name suggests, one party dominates.
At that time, Yuan Shi had too many choices. Of course, the headquarters could also suppress him, but this would not have any effect.
After all, the purpose of Shi Lao's suppression of Yuan Shi was not to force him to rebel, but to tame him.
Probably because he saw that Yuanshi Tianzun was growing too fast and that grassroots training to sharpen his edges was no longer effective, he took advantage of Cai Longshen's incident.
But Fu Qingyang knew very well that this road would not work.
Yuanshi Tianzun lost his father when he was young, and lacked maternal love, so he was dependent on others. He was lonely and sensitive at heart, and would have a strong stress reaction when encountering external stimuli.
This kind of character is doomed for him to eat soft things rather than hard things.
The more oppression there is, the more resistance there is.
But the ten elders at the headquarters did not empathize and understand Yuanshi Tianzun. This is what Fu Qingyang said, the arrogance of the superior.
They have been in power for too many years, and their arrogance is engraved in their bones.
"After this incident, the headquarters' impression of you will be extremely bad. Your talent and potential will make them choose to be patient, but they will not train you as a successor." Fu Qingyang said in a deep voice:
"But it doesn't matter. You don't need to rely on them. I will pave the way for you."
Yuanshi is not suitable for being an official, but this is what Fu Qingyang is best at.
"Welfare benefits will be reduced in the future, and the materials, money, etc. that can be exchanged for meritorious service will be affected. These are all trivial matters. Boss, will Elder Cai assassinate me?" Zhang Yuanqing frowned.
If he betrays the officialdom, he will not worry about this, because assassination and revenge are inevitable.
On the contrary, this state of being neither up nor down is the most uncomfortable.
"Revenge is inevitable. The more important you are, the less bottom line you have in doing things. It is possible to sell your information to evil professions, hire assassins to assassinate you, and even take action against your family." Fu Qingyang drank down the drink in one gulp, "But yours
Family background, I destroyed it when you killed Wei Yuanzhou. Not many people know your true identity, so I will take care of it."
Zhang Yuanqing breathed a sigh of relief.
Fu Qingyang suddenly narrowed his eyes:
"Elder Dog has also read your information. He is higher than me in terms of qualifications and position. If Elder Cai gets your information through him, there is nothing I can do. Aren't you worried?"
Zhang Yuanqing lowered his head: "I believe in Elder Gou's character and the boss's ability to do things."
Fu Qingyang said "hmm", looked away, and said casually:
“You can check out the official forum, it’s very lively!”
Really, I hate scouts. Zhang Yuanqing muttered in his heart and took out his cell phone.
Elder Dog and Zhang Zizhen are most likely old acquaintances and would not harm him, the son of an old friend, so they have no worries in this regard.
Such a small detail was still noticed by Fu Qingyang.
Turn on the computer and log into the forum.
The post at the top of the forum is:
#The trial is over, Yuanshi Tianzun is acquitted#
Zhang Yuanqing casually clicked on it and glanced at it. The poster was from the Songhai Branch. The content was very official. It only said that after verification by the headquarters, the suspicion of colluding with evil professions was ruled out. Cai Longshen's death was a common accident in the dungeon and was not Yuanshi Tianzun.
Intentional murder.
Of course, there is no mention of what Cai Longshen did in the copy.
As an official branch, the Songhai branch must not be obviously biased, and there is no problem with the content of the post.
What Fu Qingyang calls "busy" is not the posts from the Songhai branch, but the posts from the deacons who are observing the trial.
#元世天尊 claimed that he was born unruly, but he rebelled against his will and angrily denounced the headquarters in court#
#ElderCai uses public weapons for personal use and is doomed to lose his face#
#The leader of the alliance appears in the trial court to make the decision for Yuanshi Tianzun#
Zhang Yuanqing looked at the posts all over the screen and was dumbfounded: "Boss"
Fu Qingyang nodded:
"It's all the trolls I bought. It's our turn to fight back."
After a pause, he added: "The post posted by the Fire Demon has nothing to do with me."
To make other people tell the truth, you need to induce them; to make the fire demon tell the truth, you only need to provoke them.
Most fire demons are still very upright in character.
