Villain: Kill a hundred children of destiny at the beginning

Ling Shen lowered his head and looked at his son seriously for the first time.

Ling Feng also looked up at his father, with a sly smile on his lips.

Ling Shen suddenly smiled, rubbed the young man's head, and said softly:

"Kid, remember, no matter whether it's an emperor or an ancestor, the only one we can rely on is ourselves after all. Try to become stronger and strive to become strong enough before things get bad."

Ling Shen's tone was very deep, as if there was a crisis brewing that even Lu Yuan couldn't deal with...

……

Soon after, a piece of news spread throughout the Haoyue Empire.

Prince Haoyue, Ling Feng, officially welcomed the first true imperial master.

The Imperial Master is of great significance in the Haoyue Empire, not only because this identity is the teacher of the future emperor, but also represents a supreme status.

In terms of authority, he is above the three public servants!

In terms of status, he is almost on an equal footing with the emperor!

A simpler explanation is that he is the strong man who governs the country!

The previous Imperial Master of the Haoyue Empire was a close friend of Taizu Haoyue.

After Taizu Haoyue traveled to Zhongzhou, the imperial master immediately resigned and disappeared.

The identity of Imperial Master has been vacant in the Haoyue Empire for hundreds of years, and many people are jealous.

For example, the deans of the three major colleges and the holy masters of the two major holy places.

However, the position of Imperial Master has always been vacant.

The attitude of the royal family is very clear, that is, those below the seventh rank are not worthy of becoming an imperial master.

But now, the position of Emperor Master that had been vacant for a long time suddenly had its owner.

This news was like a thunderbolt, and it made countless people's jaws drop.

.......

Deep in Fengyun Holy Land, a hoarse voice suddenly came from a secret room that had been sealed for a long time.

"The Imperial Master has a master? This is impossible. How can a kid like Ling Shen recruit a seventh-grade true king!"

"The ancestor of the Ling family received news that a friend was in dire straits hundreds of years ago, so he went to Zhongzhou to help. He has been there for hundreds of years. The news we bought through Tianji Palace not long ago also confirmed that the ancestor of the Ling family is now the same Trapped in a desperate situation, he may have died. With just the little background of Ling Shen and the royal family, how could it be possible for the True Lord to surrender his status and become some kind of Imperial Master? With the True Lord's strength, it is more than enough to destroy the Haoyue Empire."

The owner of this voice spoke with deep doubts, and there was also a hint of frustration in it.

"Is there any other news?"

Outside the secret room, a young man with sword-browed eyebrows and starry eyes bowed and said: "Reporting to Master, before the news came out from the royal family, no news was revealed. Now, except for knowing that someone is serving as the emperor's master, there is no news either."

"According to my disciple's opinion, Master's guess is good. The so-called Imperial Master should not be a true king, but at most a sixth-grade person whose identity is unknown."

"Hmph! Thirty years ago, I sacrificed my dignity and personally asked Ling Shen for the position. Not only did he sternly reject me in front of everyone, he also bluntly said that it was impossible for anyone below the seventh rank to be an imperial master. Now I want to see Look, what other words can Ling Shen use to smooth things over?"

The owner of the hoarse voice sneered twice.

"If it's the seventh grade, then that's it. If it's just the sixth grade, I think... it's time for a change in the sky of the Haoyue Empire. If the Ling family can sit on this throne, so can I!"

"Speaking of which, the founder of Fengyun Holy Land was one of the two generals who followed the Taizu of the Ling family to conquer the country. He only opened Fengyun Holy Land because his merits were too high and could not be sealed. The other one was from Taiping Holy Land. The founder, let’s talk about it, we are also well-established and Miaohong, so we can be the emperor with a legitimate name!”

"We have guarded the Monster Forest for so many years for his Haoyue Empire, and now it's time for us to be the masters.

"Master said so."

Mu Jian bowed, and suddenly, his expression changed slightly, "Master, I just got the news that the royal family has prepared a banquet and invited all the top leaders of the two major holy places, the three major academies, and the five major families."

"Ha, it seems that Ling Shen can't wait to show off this imperial master. He is so confident, which makes me a little less confident. Tell them that I will attend in person."

……

Imperial Capital, Yuanwu Academy.

On a high white tower, the old dean Zhuge Wudi looked at the blue sky and sighed.

"The storm is coming. The change of position of the Imperial Master is like lighting a fuse. Wind and Cloud Holy Land, Taiping Holy Land, and Zhenwu Academy are all eyeing this position. I am afraid that the Haoyue Empire will not be peaceful in the future. I only hope that the Imperial Master is strong enough." You should be able to hold it down."

Behind the old dean, a middle-aged man was puzzled and said, "Teacher, that's just a position."

The old dean shook his head gently, "You don't understand. As long as you don't rebel, only that position can be on an equal footing with the emperor, or even higher. People's desires are unlimited, and their current status is enough in the eyes of ordinary people. It’s high, but I know it’s not enough.”

Of course Yang Ling could hear the meaning of his teacher's words, but there was no worry on his face. Although the two holy places and the Zhenwu Academy were extremely powerful, far from being comparable to the now weak Yuanwu Academy, the royal family was not under pressure either. A jobber.

After ruling the empire for so many years, the royal family's background far exceeds these forces.

So Yang Ling smiled and said: "Teacher, are you a little unreasonable? Not to mention the royal family's background, just taking out any one of the four major national-suppressing armies is enough to suppress any one of them, let alone the Ling family. He is a sixth-grade man, and the court officials have no idea how much he has hidden, so these people will never rebel together."

"You are right, the power of the empire can indeed crush the two holy places and Zhenwu Academy." The old dean faced himself, the student he accepted many years ago, with a deep look in his eyes, "But if it is not just the two holy places and Zhenwu Academy who rebel, What about the academy?”

Hearing this, Yang Ling was shocked, as if he thought of something, and said in a voiceless voice: "Teacher, you mean... Dayan and Daqian!"

Looking at the inside and outside of the Haoyue Empire, it is almost impossible for internal forces to successfully rebel, so the only thing left is external forces.

The Haoyue Empire is divided into three sides, and these three sides are bordered by the Great Yan Empire, the Great Qian Empire and the Monster Forest respectively.

The two holy lands have been suppressing the Monster Forest for many years. Their hatred is as deep as the sea and it is impossible to cooperate. Then the only ones left are the other two empires.

The two empires and the Haoyue Empire have been enemies for many years. If the two holy lands rebel, the Great Yan Empire and the Da Qian Empire will definitely be happy to get involved.

"Aren't they afraid of being infamy for eternity?"

Yang Ling looked incredulous and a little angry at the same time.

No matter how the family fights, it is their own business. If outsiders get involved, the nature will change.

The old dean sighed and patted Yang Ling on the shoulder.

"History is always written by the victors. People dominated by desire don't care whether it will be infamous for thousands of years. They will use absolute blood and killing to make everyone who remembers it shut their mouths."

"Now, everything depends on the banquet in three days. Let's see if our Imperial Master... is worthy of this position."
