Great Xia: At the start, summon the Net of Heaven to suppress the martial arts world.

This time, no one expected that the imperial court would actually be so ruthless as to eliminate so many sects one by one.

As these sects that intended to rebel disappeared one by one, Xia Taige was able to completely fulfill his original intention in establishing the Zhenwu Division—to suppress the martial arts world!

At this point, throughout the entire martial arts world of the Great Xia Dynasty, apart from Xia Taige's voice, there was no more voice of resistance.

Of course, with such a large-scale operation, the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion was also completely exposed to the eyes of various major forces in the Chinese mainland.

At this moment, many forces were horrified to discover that the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, which originally spanned the entire Chinese continent, was actually a force secretly created by the current emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.

This scene immediately stunned all the forces across the Chinese mainland.

During this period, with the emergence of various ranking lists, it was not uncommon for individuals or forces to seek trouble with the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion.

However, as more and more experts emerged from the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, the other forces that were dissatisfied with the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion gradually calmed down.

At that time, Tianji Pavilion was incredibly powerful and influential.

Some even compared it to the vanished Great Thunder Temple, which shows how powerful the Tianji Pavilion's image is in people's minds.

But this powerful force was actually created by the Great Xia Dynasty.

For the other forces, this was nothing short of a catastrophe, especially for the Great Shang Dynasty and the Great Zhou Dynasty, who were destined to be enemies of the Great Xia Dynasty in the future.

At this moment, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the emperors of both dynasties were utterly heartbroken.

The Great Xia Dynasty was originally a formidable force in the hearts of the two great dynasties, but the appearance of the Tianji Pavilion has plunged them into despair.

The opponent is too powerful, and has already gained the upper hand over the two dynasties.

It seems that it won't be long before the sword of the Great Xia will be aimed directly at the two great dynasties.

The day of national subjugation is probably fast approaching.

Inside the imperial city of the Great Xia Dynasty, in the Imperial Study.

As time passed and night approached, reports from various regions were finally compiled and sent to the capital through special channels within the Tianji Pavilion.

Upon receiving the information, Cao Zhengchun did not delay at all, immediately summarized it, and reported to Xia Taige:

"Your Majesty, according to reports from various local branches of the Zhenwu Division, Wuji Hall, Piaomiao Pavilion, and other sources, a total of over 170 martial arts sects that rebelled against the imperial court have been eliminated this time!"

"We eradicated more than forty evil sects and demonic factions, and within the sects, not a single elder or disciple was spared!"

"A total of three Grandmaster-level experts, seventeen Grandmaster-level experts, and countless experts at the Innate and Acquired realms were wiped out!"

"After this battle, more than 70,000 disciples from various sects were released!"

"However, within the territory of Xu'an Prefecture, all the disciples of more than thirty sects were completely wiped out on the orders of Lord Wei Zhuang of the Zhenwu Division, leaving no survivors!"

"The gold, silver, jewelry, and martial arts manuals seized were also added to the local military garrisons."

Upon hearing this, Xia Taige nodded, without inquiring about matters within Xu'an Prefecture.

Since Cao Zhengchun had just reported that there were more than thirty martial arts sects in Xu'an Prefecture rebelling against the imperial court, Xia Taige already knew why Wei Zhuang had ordered that none of them be spared.

Within the entire Great Xia Dynasty, there were only about 170 martial arts sects that rebelled against the imperial court. Xu'an Prefecture alone accounted for nearly 20% of them. How could this be justified?

They deserved to die. If Xia Taige were here, he would probably shake all the eggs in the sect to pieces.

"The more than 70,000 sect disciples who have been released should be closely monitored in the future. If anyone is found to have violated the laws of the Great Xia Dynasty, they should be dealt with severely immediately!"

"Furthermore, within a month, anyone who has not reported to their original hometown government office shall be immediately arrested as a wanted criminal and exiled to reclaim wasteland, so as to prevent them from becoming outlaws by relying on their martial arts skills!"

Xia Taige didn't believe that these martial arts disciples could really control themselves after leaving their sects.

Once these people with some martial arts skills return to their hometowns, how can they resist the urge to fight with others?

As the saying goes, "He who possesses a sharp weapon will be filled with murderous intent," and this applies to everyone.

Xia Taige is willing to give these people a chance, but whether they can seize it depends on themselves.

Although there are certainly good people among the more than 70,000 people, it is undeniable that there are also quite a few bad people. Xia Taige's decision not to kill him with a single blow is already an act of extraordinary mercy.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will immediately issue the order to the local military commands!" Cao Zhengchun replied immediately upon hearing this.

"If there's nothing else, you can leave now. At the same time tomorrow, immediately take action against these powerful families who have jumped out!"

"Order Yuan Tiangang to allocate the manpower properly, so that there won't be any unexpected setbacks!" Xia Taige waved his hand, signaling Cao Zhengchun to go and deliver the imperial decree.

"Yes! This old servant will remember!" Cao Zhengchun replied, and was about to leave when Xia Taige called him back.

"By the way, what's the situation with the Wang family, one of the four great families? Are they scared off by the Zhenwu Division?" Xia Taige suddenly remembered the Wang family, who had been aligning themselves with the imperial court recently, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Your Majesty, according to the information from the Zhenwu Division's spies and the Tianji Pavilion, it is highly likely that the Wang family possesses a secret treasure capable of predicting the family's fortunes!"

"But this treasure was hidden very deep by the Wang family. Even the secret agents of the Zhenwu Division planted in the Wang family could not see it. They could only learn a little from some fragments of information."

Cao Zhengchun recalled the intelligence about the Wang family over the past few days, summarized it in his mind, and then reported it to Xia Taige in detail.

Upon hearing this, Xia Taige couldn't help but sneer. Sure enough, none of these aristocratic families that have been able to survive for thousands of years are simple people.

Xia Taige recalled in his mind that it seemed that after making the decision to physically exterminate the aristocratic families, it was not long before the Wang family took the initiative to show goodwill to the Great Xia.

Given this coincidence, it's possible that such a secret treasure truly exists within the Wang family.

"At noon tomorrow, send someone to Wang to convey an imperial edict, ordering Wang to restore all prices and quantities at all costs, without fail!"

Judging from Wang's current behavior, we really can't treat her the same way we treat the other four great families tomorrow. Otherwise, if word gets out, the court might be accused of abandoning us after we've served our purpose.

Fortunately, by noon tomorrow, it would be nothing more than a slightly larger ant, and Xia Taige wouldn't mind giving it another chance.

After these powerful clans are eliminated, the Wang family, with its own strength, will be at the mercy of the imperial court in the future.

Of course, it is much better than other aristocratic families, at least its heritage has been preserved.

"Yes! This old servant will arrange this matter after I go down!" Cao Zhengchun bowed again in response.

That is to say, he has a good memory; otherwise, someone else might not have been able to remember it.

"By the way, after noon tomorrow, immediately order Shen Wanqian to prepare to take over the properties of these aristocratic families."

"Yes!"
