Cultivating Immortality, Starts with Green Plum

Chapter 509: Talking about Rules (4000 words)
Emperor Wu's words spread slowly across the square.

All the sect leaders were shocked.

In the view of these sect leaders, isn’t the relationship between the Wu Kingdom and the various sects now in the best possible state?

We are giving you face, and we have come here to this All Dharma Conference, and on the surface we regard you as the king.

Then you provide us with students.

If our disciples need a place to train, they can come to your Wu Kingdom. You just need to provide some resources, and our disciples will help you exorcise demons and monsters.

Everyone gets what they need, isn't it always like this?

Not to mention the Wu Kingdom and the major sects.

Isn’t it the same for other dynasties in the world?
How come it's not the best condition when it comes to you?
How does your Wu compare to Qi? How does your Wu compare to Chu? How does your Wu compare to Wei?

Although your Wu Kingdom is one of the ten great dynasties of the human race, it is the youngest, the least well-established, and the most lacking in foundation.

With the way you are now, what else do you want?

"I wonder what your majesty means by this?"

A clan leader at the Jade Pu Realm stood up and said.

In fact, the words of this Jade Pu Realm Sect Master were already somewhat impolite, and there was even a sense of questioning in his words.

Emperor Wu naturally heard it, but he continued speaking with a very calm expression:

“The relationship between Wu State and the various sects is the same as before, and there is not much difference.

But, in my opinion, this is far from enough.

On the border of Wu State, there is a Baihe County, where there are four aristocratic families, and these four families are supported by four sects.

With the support of the four sects, the four families became extremely arrogant and all-powerful, and almost swallowed up all the industries in Baihe County.

Several county magistrates in our Baihe County were unable to do anything about those four sects.

And those four sects can get dividends from those four families.

In Jiangnan County, an inner sect disciple of a sect fell in love with a woman who was already engaged, but the man abducted her and made her a maid.

The woman's father sued for a long time but to no avail.

Qingle City, the Lord of Qingle City is relatively close to the Sanhai Sect. Although Qingle City is the territory of my Wu Kingdom, no matter what we do, we need to consider the face of Sanhai City.

The Legalists have a saying: Knights use force to disrupt prohibitions, and Confucians use literature to disrupt laws.

But in everyone's opinion, what about monks? "

The sect leaders: "."

All the sect leaders present had their brows furrowed, looking extremely unhappy.

They all knew that Emperor Wu was trying to bargain for himself.

But they are not willing to accept it, not even a little bit!

If I accept this kind of thing, what will I do in the future?

One step back, one step back.

Not to mention that since ancient times, it has always been the mortal dynasties that have given in to the sects.

No sect has ever given in to the Fanchen Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, what you said makes sense!" A sect leader stepped forward and bowed, "Of course, we have to discipline our sect's disciples. When I return, I will have a good talk with them!"

This clan leader seemed to agree with Emperor Wu very much and seemed to be really standing on his side.

But in reality, they are just talking.

After they go back, they won’t mention it at all, as if this incident never happened.

This kind of thing happens too often.

In the past, Emperor Wu would just turn a blind eye and play along with them.

But now, Emperor Wu doesn't want to do that anymore.

Emperor Wu will not play Tai Chi with them this time.

Otherwise, this Wanfa Conference will be meaningless.

Emperor Wu stood up, put his hands behind his back, and walked back and forth on the platform: "There is a saying that I have always liked very much, without rules, there will be no order. Verbal restrictions are useless after all, so I want you to sign something."

A female clan leader stepped forward and asked, "What does His Majesty want us to sign?"

"It's nothing, it's just a rule."

After he finished speaking, Emperor Wu waved his hand, and the energy of the mountains and rivers above the palace continued to condense, and finally formed a piece of golden paper.

On this golden paper, black words appeared one after another.

Everyone looked intently at the black words written on the gold paper.

"1. Within the Wu Kingdom, the laws of the Wu Kingdom are equal to those of the monks. Those who kill innocent people will be punished with death."

"Second, within the borders of Wu State, no sect or faction may interfere in the affairs of the mortal world of Wu State."

"3. All sects and schools must obey the orders of the Wu Kingdom, and each sect leader must be appointed by the Wu Kingdom's emperor."

"Four"

Rules appeared in front of everyone.

The more they looked, the more their brows furrowed.

How could they possibly recognize these rules? !
In the eyes of these clan leaders, Emperor Wu was simply dreaming!

Not to mention the leaders of these sects.

Even the officials of Wu State couldn't help but gasp when they read the rules written on the golden paper.

Cold sweat broke out on their foreheads, and they looked at their own Majesty in disbelief! They wondered what had happened to the usually calm Majesty?
In fact, many of these officials in the court are also connected with the sects.

After all, sect cultivation also requires resources, so they can take what they need.

Of course, there are also officials who are unhappy with these sects in the Wu Kingdom and have long wanted to clean them up!

But now, no matter what attitude these officials have towards these sects.

At this moment, they all realized one thing.

Your Majesty is going to fall out with some sects.
No one spoke in the huge square, and the entire square fell into silence.

Some sect leaders read these rules over and over again, wondering if they had read them wrongly.

Some sect leaders looked at Emperor Wu and wondered in their hearts if the emperor of Wu was crazy.

How could he think of doing these things?
What on earth is he capable of?
Or how dare he do that?
"Your Majesty, we are afraid that it will be difficult for us to accept the rules you have set." The leader of the Feiyu Sect walked forward and spoke, his expression extremely ugly.

In his opinion, being able to attend this Wanfa Conference and respecting you on the surface is the greatest honor he has given you.

Unexpectedly, you want to go even further. Being the boss on paper is not enough, you even want to be our real boss?!
Especially the one that "the leaders of all sects and schools need to be recognized and canonized by Emperor Wu"?
It's ridiculous!!!
Do you think we are the princes of your Wu State?
Since ancient times, there has only been a reason for the sect to control the human dynasty, and there has never been a reason for the human dynasty to control the sect!
"Your Majesty, the rules you set are inappropriate. We have always been in a cooperative relationship." Another clan leader said.

"Your Majesty, I hope you can take back this contract. The Wu Kingdom has only been established for three hundred years. If there is such a big change, it will be detrimental to the development of the dynasty, right?"

"Your Majesty, aren't you worried about the Wu Kingdom being shaken?"

The words spoken by these sect leaders are becoming more and more impolite.

There was even a hint of threat in their tone.

They look down on mortals.

They have always believed that mortals are just mortals and are no longer the same species as themselves.

Emperor Wu was just a mortal who could control the destiny of mountains and rivers.

But now, such an ant actually wants to control the elephant?
How ridiculous is this?
How outrageous!

Facing the questions from these sects, the Emperor simply raised his lips. His voice was not loud, but it spread throughout the palace: "This time I am not here to discuss with you, but to inform you!"

Wu Du's words had just landed on the ground when a golden dragon was circling on the top of the imperial palace, looking down at everyone.

The golden vertical pupils were filled with anger and threats.

It seemed as if the next moment, this golden dragon would pounce towards them and devour all the sect leaders.

"Your Majesty, do you want to go to war with us?"

The leader of Baoshan Sect looked at Emperor Wu coldly.

He didn't expect that after these people of his rejected Emperor Wu, Emperor Wu actually threatened him.

The murderous intent brought by the golden dragon above the palace was not fake, he really wanted to kill these people!
How dare he?

Even if he is sitting in the palace, like a saint in this world, even the Ascension Realm cultivators cannot do anything to him, but the problem is that with so many cultivators in the upper five realms, how could they be afraid of just him?

And behind him were hundreds and thousands of sects and tens of thousands of monks!

"I have said before that this time I am here to inform you, not to discuss with you!"

Emperor Wu looked coldly at these guys who disrupted the government of Wu State and disregarded the laws of Wu State.

“Those who are willing to sign their names on it will live, and those who are unwilling will die!
You guys make your own choice!"

When Emperor Wu said this, it meant that he had completely broken off relations with these sects.

Even if some ministers still wanted to speak for these sects to ease the atmosphere and make His Majesty think twice, they were unable to do so.

To be honest, they really couldn't guess why His Majesty made such a choice.

This was completely beyond their imagination.

Nowadays, the Wu Kingdom is already very powerful, and has good relations with these sects. As long as the orders are not excessive, such as asking these sects to go through fire and water, these sects will generally cooperate if they can.

If Wu State and these sects fall out now, it would be equivalent to Wu State going to war with all the sects within its territory.

This is a very troublesome matter. If at this time, the northern barbarians take action, or if the monsters from the southern demon country take action again, this will not be a simple internal or external trouble.

By that time, the Wu State would probably be facing a life-and-death situation.

While Emperor Wu was confronting the leaders of these sects, the corner of his mouth curled up at the King of Xiliang, Takeda Hu, who was sitting on the other side.

This was the moment he had been waiting for.

He had been to Tianji City before and met the city lord of Tianji City.

Takeda Tiger asked him to tell his fortune.

The Lord of Tianji City said that if Takeda Tora wanted to become the supreme ruler, the best opportunity would be the next Wanfa Ceremony of the Wu Kingdom.

The next Wanfa Ceremony will be held one year earlier.

So this time, the reason why King Wutian Hu of Xiliang came to Wudu was not just to let his son marry Wu Yanhan.

Marrying Wu Yanhan was just an excuse and an attempt.

We still have to wait and see what will happen at this Wanfa Conference.

But the result was unexpected. Emperor Wu wanted to devour all these sects as if he had gone mad.

Takeda Tiger knew that now was the time for him to take action.

Wu Tianhu stood up, walked to the center, clasped his fists and saluted Emperor Wu: "Nephew, stop talking nonsense! Hurry up and apologize to these clan leaders!"

Takeda Tora came out and directly scolded Emperor Wu with a very impolite tone, not treating Emperor Wu as the emperor of the Wu Kingdom at all.

Under normal circumstances, Takeda Tora's words would have been considered a heinous crime and he could have been charged with treason.

But now, the situation has reached a point where it is out of control.

Everyone has already torn their relations apart, and it's almost a life-and-death struggle, so what does it matter if it's so-called treason?
Takeda Tora wanted to win the support of all the major sects through this kind of performance, to show that he would not be like the young man like Emperor Wu.

As expected, all the sects turned their attention to Takeda Tiger.

Most of the clan leaders actually knew the King of Xiliang, Takeda Tora.

Moreover, Takeda Tiger had good relations with many sects and often sent people to deliver gifts to these sects.

The moment Takeda Tiger walked out, an idea popped up in the minds of all the clan leaders, which was to let Takeda Tiger take his place.

Since Emperor Wu is disobedient and does not know the rules, and wants to overturn the table by force, then there is no need for him to continue to be the emperor.

If he is not decent, then we will help him to be decent!

"Uncle, what you said really chills my heart. When I was fighting for the country with the founding ancestors, we were so high-spirited and vigorous. We were ready to kill gods and Buddhas. No one could stop the late emperor and you, Uncle.

The late emperor had said before that he wanted to establish a dynasty completely dominated by ordinary people, rather than become a vassal of a sect, let alone serve as a dog for these sects.

It has been 300 years now, could it be that Uncle Shi has forgotten everything?
Are you already impatient to serve these sects as dogs?"

Emperor Wu's words made Xiliang King Wu Tianhu frown and his face turned red.

He clenched his fists and spoke slowly:

"Wuchang, what you said is totally wrong! The stability of a dynasty requires the support of the sects. The leaders of these sects are all our friends. This is not a subordinate relationship!"

[Driving back home, I got stuck in a traffic jam and felt numb
I've been stuck in traffic for two hours and I'm still writing this chapter in the car.

Write one more chapter and then it will be my turn to drive.

Can I still get back home before twelve o'clock?】
