Chapter 1064 The Soldier-Slave Meeting

As a slave to the Heart Demon Ring, Wu Linbei's conduct has always been impeccable, and his behavior after returning home this time is no exception.

After formulating the plan, immediately convene the Ring Assembly, ask the Inner Demon Ring to preside, and mobilize other soldiers and slaves to help.

The governor of Jingzhou had been managing his territory for many years, wielding considerable power and accumulating countless riches.

Once the governor's office is destroyed, the treasure trove left behind will be a tempting piece of meat for everyone to covet; a single bite will make you rich beyond measure.

The other soldiers were very curious. In such a turbulent time, they never expected that this fellow soldier would come up with such a big plan right away.

That's a governor of a prefecture, a powerful expert of the Earth Sect, and there are fifty such positions available across all fifty prefectures in the world.

Moreover, Maijing Prefecture is different from other prefectures. It is one of the eight directly governed prefectures and a vital area protecting the capital. Therefore, the governor of Maijing Prefecture is three ranks higher than the governors of other prefectures.

For example, Zhou You's adoptive father, Zhou Nanwang, originally planned to work in Lihuo Prefecture for one or two hundred years, accumulate enough political achievements and qualifications, and then be promoted back to Dijing to take over as the governor of one of the eight directly governed prefectures.

"Due to my special circumstances, I will not participate in this operation."

Zhou Suanni was extremely frustrated. He was trapped in the sacrificial palace, which was a great opportunity. There were several treasures in the collection of the governor of Jingzhou that he had coveted for many years, but he couldn't get out.

As soon as he spoke, the maid Wu'er chimed in, "Me too!"

Hearing her say that, Yin Hen patted his chest and said, "I'll bring you a share of the spoils."

His large merchant family has sided with the aristocratic families this time, putting them in an adversarial position with Governor Maijing. They would have fought even without this meeting.

Another soldier, the Impermanent Killer, added, "The capital is in complete chaos. I heard that the Impermanent Killer has stopped taking orders."

That's right, the assassin organization isn't taking on any more jobs.

The current situation in Beijing is one of indistinguishable friend from foe; we are all intertwined.

The minimum requirement for candidates to be chosen as emperors was that they had to be from aristocratic families, so even before ascending the throne, a feudal lord was a member of an aristocratic family.

Since they are aristocratic families, they all have branches, relatives by marriage, and allies. When one person attains enlightenment, even his chickens and dogs benefit from it.

The feudal lord is not alone; he is supported by a powerful clan, which allows him to monopolize profits. Once he loses power, the destruction of his entire clan is not far off.

To be precise, the confrontation between the feudal lords and the eighteen early aristocratic families was a clash between the ruling party and the opposition party.

Impeachment, removal from office, and replacement – ​​do these terms sound familiar?

The Heart Demon Ring is also a differentiation of Zhou You's original consciousness, and he understands all the ins and outs of it perfectly!
Hitmen are all about doing the dirty work and cleaning up. In the current chaotic situation, it's uncertain who the employer is and who the target is. There's a high possibility that they won't get paid after finishing the job, and the employer might also be killed.

"Hey!"

This statement evoked a lot of emotions in many people, as everyone here lives in Beijing and is inevitably influenced by the broader context.

One of them, who was a pharmacist, also talked about the changes in the medicine-making industry.

After the two pharmacists, Sanwei and Wuwei, returned, they immediately shut themselves in, refusing to see the lord or accept invitations from aristocratic families, and resolutely remained aloof.

The twin disciples of the Three Flavors Pharmacist were controlled by the Evil Pharmacist's Soul-Capturing Pill for a long time, and their minds were severely damaged. They need to refine medicine to recuperate, otherwise not only will they have no hope of recovery, but they may also become idiots.

He was heartbroken by the death of the great gentleman, and frustrated by the foolishness of the seven flavors. All these worries left him exhausted.

The Five Flavors Pharmacist took a more radical approach, based on the lessons learned from Feng Jun and Qi Wei. He believed that people in high positions had many desires and should not be involved too deeply with, lest they make a grave mistake.

He has decided to abolish the patronage system, and all pharmacists must not remain in aristocratic families and must maintain their independent status.

"In this way, the relationship between the pharmacist and the aristocratic families will be broken, and he may have no choice but to leave the city and go up the mountain!"

"And then there's the Queen of Enchantress. She's been out of the public eye since her birth in Putuo Prefecture. Who knows what she's planning?"

The people are still wary of the Enchantress lately. They say that she has just been born and needs to get through a period of weakness before she can keep a low profile.

However, we can never be too cautious with her; we must remain vigilant at all times. "No need to overthink it, the Enchantress's claws have definitely reached into the capital."

Just as the many slave soldiers were speculating, the Heart Demon Ring, which was Zhou You's alias, spoke up. "Some of you must have already made contact with the past Demon Soldier Lords!"

Upon hearing this, many people broke out in a cold sweat, including Wulinbei.

They knew they couldn't hide it from the inner demon ring, and only thought about delaying for a while, but they didn't expect to be exposed so quickly.

It turns out that the slave soldiers have no secrets whatsoever from their own demonic lord.

"It's alright, my Heart Demon Ring values ​​democracy the most. Your private friendships are your private matters, I won't interfere!"

"As long as you don't openly plot against me, I'm happy to see you expand your connections and networks so you can work for me!"

The Demon Ring chuckled dryly a few times, but the soldiers and slaves around it couldn't laugh.

The legendary demon lords, as the name suggests, were the masters of numerous demon weapons who wiped out an entire era, each with more seniority than the Heart Demon Ring.

Someone is colluding with them, and their intentions are obvious—they are definitely targeting the current Demon Soldier Lord and the Heart Demon Ring.

Pointing out the inner demon ring in public was clearly a warning shot.

"Let's get back to the main topic. The person who initiated this operation, well, you did a great job!"

Wu Linbei wiped the sweat from his brow and nodded respectfully, saying, "You flatter me, Lord of War."

"Yes, don't be modest. If this succeeds, it will be of great benefit to both of us, and we should be rewarded!"

Swish!
A jade bottle flew through the air and landed in the palm of the Martial Arts Monument. Inside, a crystal-clear pill was sealed.

"This is a Grade 9 medicine. You can take it after you advance to the ninth level of the Martial Arts Realm. Its purpose is to assist in breaking through the Grandmaster barrier."

Wu Linbei felt a surge of electricity rise from his tailbone, travel up his spine to the top of his head, and his whole body went numb.

His ears were ringing, his mind went blank, as if he were in another world.

The gazes cast from all directions were filled with envy and jealousy, each one seemingly wanting to snatch the jade bottle from his hands.

No, no, no!

Wu Linbei suddenly realized that he had fallen into the dangerous situation of "possessing a treasure that invites trouble".

Although this elixir can only be taken by those at the Ninth Heaven.

However, for the demonic slaves, improving their cultivation level is the least important condition.

Those who can stand in this circular world, setting aside those who were eliminated, are at least at the fourth level of the Strong Martial Realm, and they are the least ambitious ones at that.

The maid Wu'er lowered her head in shame: ...

Looking at the Martial Arts Monument itself, it is currently at the seventh level of the Strong Martial Realm, only two levels away. If it spares no expense to advance to the ninth level, meeting the conditions for taking the medicine will not be difficult.

With just one pill, the Grandmaster realm is within reach.

"I thank you, Lord Bing, for your life-saving grace!"

The Martial Arts Monument knelt heavily at the feet of the Illusory Ring World. Flames rose in his pupils, flames of revenge engulfing the Governor of Mirror State's mansion and burning all the survivors to ashes.

Even if he is used and treated as a pawn, he doesn't care and will never let go.

In the past, he would clench his fists in anger, his palms empty, but now he has the confidence to seek revenge.
