Original God: The Eternal Lord of Bliss

Chapter 104 Liberation of Yancheng (3)

In just one day, the Qianyan Army completely occupied Yancheng. All the nobles in the city were stripped of their gorgeous robes and dressed in coarse linen clothes. The food in their homes was also taken out and distributed to the civilians in the outer city by the Salt God himself.

After all, in name, these civilians are still the people of the Salt God, and Zhu Yuncheng still needs the Salt God to maintain his rule in Yancheng.

Speaking of which, the demon god Salt God is really shameless. He was used as a symbol of ruling Yancheng by the Ming family in the past, and now he is used by Zhu Yuncheng as a tool to rule Yancheng.

A few days later, a beast-carrying cart arrived outside Yancheng.

The curtains beside the car opened, revealing a pretty face.

"Ningxia, have you arrived in Yancheng?"

A voice came from inside the car. The woman called Ningxia turned around and smiled, "Mother, the wall of Yancheng is much shorter than our Guili City."

"The population of Yancheng is only over 300,000. According to the Human King, their productivity is far inferior to that of Guili, so the city walls they built are naturally much shorter." The old lady who spoke had a kind face. She was Ning Kuan's daughter, Ning Hui, and this woman named Ning Xia was naturally her daughter, the Human King of Yancheng appointed by Zhu Yuncheng.

He seems to be the human king of Yancheng, but in fact he is just a fake king. According to Zhu Yuncheng, he is the head of Guili's embassy in Yancheng, acting as the agent for Yancheng affairs, and has 10,000 Yan troops stationed there permanently.

After meeting with Heulia, the newly appointed Ningxia immediately issued a new decree, and Zhu Yuncheng also announced an increase in the prices of Yancheng's handicraft products. For a time, the entire Yancheng civilians were very happy. They cheered in the streets to celebrate this new day.

This new life belongs only to the common people of Yancheng who have been exploited for twenty years. Those former nobles are detained in dark prisons, making repetitive handicrafts day after day, and enjoying the same treatment as the common people they once exploited.

On the other side, just after Zhu Yuncheng returned to the Human King Palace, he saw the Emperor, Guili and Marcosius sitting in the Fengtian Hall.

The Emperor, in particular, looked extremely solemn, which made the atmosphere of the entire Fengtian Palace heavy. Zhu Yuncheng was puzzled, but he still stepped forward to greet him: "Junior pays homage to the Emperor, Master Guizhong, and Master Kitchen God."

"Xiao Yun." The Emperor said, "I heard that you sent the Qianyan Army to Yancheng to completely occupy it."

Zhu Yuncheng nodded: "Emperor, these are all done by the younger generation. The purpose is to make Yancheng under the rule of Guili. Only in this way can the resource of salt be completely controlled by us Guili."

"Xiao Yun, you've gone too far in this matter." Gui Zhong said, "Do you want the people of Yancheng to believe in the Emperor?"

Zhu Yuncheng shook his head: "There is no such situation. The people of Yancheng are still the people of the Salt God. I will not let them believe in the Emperor."

Even if you really want to believe in it, you have to wait until the Demon-God War period, when the Salt God is defeated by the Emperor.

Hearing this, the Emperor's icy expression softened a bit: "Well, Xiaoyun, that's good. Don't let the people of Yancheng abandon the Salt God and believe in me instead."

Zhu Yuncheng became curious: "Emperor, why do you say that?"

The Emperor sighed softly: "Xiao Yun, originally this matter has nothing to do with you, but since it has happened, it is better to let you know."

The Emperor continued to explain: "Humans are a help to the demon gods, but also a constraint. More than 6,000 years ago, when I was just born and still young, I made a contract with the law of nature to protect humans. That's why I got the name of the Emperor."

Zhu Yuncheng felt his scalp tingling as he listened: "Emperor, are you saying that you are not protecting humans voluntarily, but because of the law of nature?"

The Emperor nodded slightly: "You can say that. After all, when I was born, the human species already existed. I often take a short nap for hundreds of years, and dozens of human generations have already passed."

Gui Zhong smiled and said, "I am different from the Emperor. When I was born, I had a strong curiosity about the human species. I often observed and guided them. Then I also saw that Tianli made a contract with Him to protect mankind."

The God of the Hearth, Marcosius, said honestly, "I am actually similar to Guizhong."

The Emperor said sternly, "It is precisely because we have signed a contract with Heaven that protecting humanity is what we must do. As you said, Xiaoyun, it is a relationship of mutual benefit and mutual loss. If you let the civilians of Yancheng abandon their faith in the Salt God and believe in me instead, the Salt God is weak and will certainly not stop you. This will violate the contract with Heaven, and the only consequence of betraying the contract is death."

Zhu Yuncheng's hands trembled, and he thought to himself, it's a close call, fortunately he didn't do this, otherwise, if the Salt God died, the whole Yancheng would be buried with him!

He said solemnly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty. Although I have actually taken control of Yancheng, in name, the Salt God is still the master, and the people there have always regarded themselves as the Salt God's people!"

"That's good." The Emperor nodded slightly.

"Yun Cheng, what mistake have you made to make the Emperor die and Marcosius so angry!"

Suddenly Liu Yun's voice was heard. Zhu Yuncheng looked back and saw Liu Yun and Gan Yu walking in with angry faces.

"It's over!" Zhu Yuncheng knew in his heart that Gan Yu must have seen the Emperor's expression and secretly went to complain to his arrogant master. He quickly stepped forward and hid behind the Emperor, "Master, please listen to my explanation. I didn't make the Emperor angry."

"How dare you quibble? If you hadn't angered the Emperor, why would he come here with the other two demon gods? Come here." Liu Yun glanced at the Emperor. Just as the latter was about to speak, Gui Zhong stopped him: "Xiao Yun, this incident really scared us, and we should be punished a little."

Zhu Yuncheng's face turned pale instantly. The way his arrogant master taught him a lesson was to spank him. He was already 71 years old this year, and this was not acceptable, especially in front of little Ganyu!

"come here!"

"Master, I am really wronged. Please listen to my explanation!"

Just when there was chaos in Gui Liren’s palace, in Yancheng, in the prison where the nobles were held.

"W.W.Where is this?"

After his arm was cut off, Mingli fainted from excessive blood loss. When he woke up, he looked at the dim environment around him with confusion on his face.

"Dad, this is a dungeon. The Qianyan Army broke into the inner city and gave all our food and wealth to those inferior people. Then they imprisoned us here and made us do handicrafts all day long. Look at my hands, they are all blistered!"

The person who spoke was Mingli’s son, Minghan.

When Mingli heard this, he recalled the scene of that day, and immediately his blood boiled. He stretched out his armless hand and said, "Minghan, all this was caused by Heuliah. You must remember this hatred forever in your heart. When you find a chance, you must kill the Salt God and avenge me!"

Minghan choked up, "I know, father."

In secret, the members of the Human King's Guard who were monitoring the situation curled their lips and said that these people were not crazy, as they actually wanted to take revenge on the Salt God. They said that these people were crazy, as they knew they dared not take revenge on their Human King.

"With your bullying and cowardly personalities, you still want revenge. I will report this matter to Ningxia and you will never be able to leave!"

Time comes to night.

Zhu Yuncheng, who had finally escaped from Liu Yun's hands, found Gan Yu and kneaded her chubby little face fiercely: "You are so good, Junior Sister, who told you to tell Master about this matter, making me embarrassed!"

"Woo~Hmm!" Gan Yu slapped Zhu Yuncheng's hand, but she had just started practicing, so how could she be Zhu Yuncheng's opponent? She could only glare at Zhu Yuncheng with angry eyes.

Zhu Yuncheng kneaded for a while before letting go of her hands with satisfaction. She lay down on the recliner and looked at the stars in the sky.

Gan Yu pouted and sat over: "Brother, what are you going to do next?"

Zhu Yuncheng was stunned and looked at Gan Yu with amusement: "Why would you ask such a question?"

Gan Yu said softly, "It's mainly because I saw you walking around all day, very busy. This time, you made Lord Emperor and Sister Guizhong unhappy. If I came to help you, this wouldn't have happened."

"Hey!" Zhu Yuncheng didn't expect Gan Yu to look like a seven-star secretary in the future at such a young age. He reached out and touched her head and said, "It's nothing. Gui Li is now mature. If we want to do anything, we have to wait until that thing starts."

"What's the matter, senior brother?" Gan Yu asked curiously with eyes wide open.

Zhu Yuncheng looked at Gan Yu's curious eyes and said, "Of course... I won't tell you!"

"You!" Gan Yu turned her head away angrily, "Brother, you are bad!"

Zhu Yuncheng smiled and shook his head. It was indeed the case. Now Zhu Yuncheng really had nothing to do. He could only wait until the Demon War began before making any plans.

I don't know when the war between demons and gods will begin.
