Traveling the Heavens in Thunderbolt

Chapter 551 Swallowing a boy with wine
The leader of the Cruel Alliance, Oboro Saburo, the chief of the Three Eastern Dragons, appeared in a domineering manner.

The identity is revealed, it is Shuten-doji.

"Shuten."

"exist."

"Kill without mercy!"

"As ordered."

After the killing order was given, Shuten-doji no longer held back and swung out the Shuten Demon Sword in his hand.

Several daimyos and countless soldiers died on the spot.

"This is.!" The memory hidden deep in her mind was awakened, and Yuan Ji recognized that the Shuten-doji in front of her was the leader of the genocide that day.

"You were the one leading the army that day."

Shuten-doji did not hold back, pointing his knife at Yuanji and the Divine Sword Tengu, "Yuanji, these are two rats that escaped from the God's Legacy Clan. Now, prepare to die."

"Hundred Demons Blood Repellent"

Strong, only strong. The enemy in front of him is neither human nor demon. With just one move, he wiped out thousands of enemy troops.

Yoshimine Sadayosuke was also knocked back with one move and was seriously injured.

The knife rushed straight to Yuan Ji

"Return to Nothingness" Yuan Ji used the move of the gods, but her foundation was far inferior to Shuten Douji. She was unable to dissipate the energy.

Fortunately, the Divine Sword Tengu used himself to block the attack instead of Yuan Ji, saving Yuan Ji's life.

But the price is that no body is left.

"Yuan Ji, run away~"

The last voice of the Divine Sword Tengu before his death echoed in her ears, and Yuan Ji realized that the so-called revenge was nothing but an unrealistic idea.

"Even the great elder of your Divine Legacy Clan couldn't dissolve my energy. You are too naive."

Shuten-doji looked at Funahime who was standing there in a daze and Ryomine Sadayoshi who was seriously injured. He stretched out his left palm, and demonic energy spread across the scene. The pressure suddenly increased, and "the demonic energy swirled in the air."

The strong air pressure made Ryomine Sadayosuke and Yuanji unable to move.

Then Shuten Douji asked the Soul Burial Emperor for instructions: "Soul Emperor, these two are the main culprits of all the conspiracies. Please give us your orders on how to deal with them."

"Beheaded."

"Yes."

Just as the demon sword was about to fall, a voice came in, "Slow down!"

It was because of the wood spirit's own supernatural power that he summoned plants to absorb the toxins in his body. Yi Ye Shu, who had cured the poison, said, "Please, Soul Emperor, have mercy and let these two people go."

The Soul Burial Emperor looked at Yi Ye Shu and said, "Yi Ye Shu, these two people are the masterminds of today's incident, and you actually want to protect them."

"After this battle, the forces in Japan that resisted the Soul Emperor have been completely wiped out. They can no longer threaten the Soul Emperor." Yi Ye Shu could naturally see that the various abnormal behaviors of the Soul Emperor today were actually intended to lure Ryomine Sadayosuke, the largest resistance force in Japan that had a grudge against the Huanchen Buwu group, into a trap, and then eliminate them in one fell swoop.

However, everything the Soul Burial Emperor did since he entered the camp has been an open conspiracy.

If Ryomine Sadayosuke and others did not take action, the Soul Burial Emperor would not be able to find an excuse to destroy them in one fell swoop.

The previous tea persuasion was also within the Soul Burial Emperor's calculations. The purpose was to prevent Yi Ye Shu from interfering in the matter.

"Yi Ye Shu, you are right. But unfortunately, these two people must die today."

"Soul Emperor." Yi Ye Shu wanted to persuade him further but was stopped by Soul Emperor Zang.

"That's enough! Yi Ye Shu, if I hadn't kept a backup plan today, even you would have died. You are in no position to ask for mercy now. What's more, when you saved Yuan Musashi last time, I already said that you won't be treated politely next time."

"This"

"Shuten, kill!" Soul Burial Emperor gave the order, and when the magic sword was about to chop down again, a voice interrupted again.

"Soul Emperor, wait a minute." It was Yue Tianji who arrived.

However, there was another person behind him, the one who was supposed to be trapped in the cave, Minamoto Musashi. "Yes, it's the strategist. Do you want to plead for them both?"

"Soul Emperor, you are angry only because Liangfeng Zhenyi broke his promise. If there is a way to make up for it, you can naturally spare the death penalty for both of them."

“How do you make up for it?”

"I believe that after the battle with Yuan Wuzang, Soul Emperor will understand what kind of talent Yuan Wuzang is?" Yue Tianji said, looking at Yuan Wuzang.

Minamoto Musashi understood what he meant and stepped forward and said, "I am willing to serve the Soul Emperor in exchange for the lives of Yuanji and Ryomine Sadayosuke."

It turned out that before Yue Tianji came, after rescuing Minamoto Musashi, he told him that the conspiracy of Ryomine Sadayosuke and Yuanji had been exposed and he would surely die.

Minamoto Musashi wanted to go to stop him, but was stopped by Yue Tianji and told him.

If you rush to save people in such a hurry, not only will you fail to save them, but you will also lose yourself.

Although Minamoto Musashi was not afraid of death, he knew that protecting the two of them would require more brute force.

I immediately asked Yue Tianji for the solution.

Yue Tianji suggested that Minamoto Musashi swear allegiance to the Soul Burial Emperor in exchange for the lives of Ryomine Sadayosuke and Yuanji.

That's how the current scene happened.

Yuan Ji naturally didn't want to see her lover working for the enemy, so she tried her best to say: "Kannazuki, you don't need to do this for me, you..."

"Shut up, you have no right to speak here." After the Soul Burial Emperor signaled Shuten Douji to shut up Yuan Ji, he asked, "Genmuzo, have you thought it through? Do you really want to exchange your freedom for these two?"

"I have thought about it, and I hope the Soul Emperor will grant my wish." As he said this, Minamoto Musashi performed the ceremony of a subject to the Soul Emperor.

"Okay. Since you are so loyal and righteous, I cannot be a heartless person." The Soul Burial Emperor pointed at Liangfeng Zhenyi and Yuan Ji and said, "The two of them will serve for twenty years each. As long as you serve me for forty years, I will set you free when the time is up."

"Your Majesty, thank you." Minamoto Musashi acted like a loyal subject and formally pledged allegiance to the Soul Burial Emperor.

"Come, get up." The Soul Burial Emperor used both hands to help Minamoto Musashi up, "This emperor is not happy to get Japan, but happy to get Minamoto Musashi."

"Thank you for the kindness of the Soul Emperor."

Afterwards, the Soul Burial Emperor asked Shuten Douji to release Ryomine Sadayosuke and Yuanji from their suppression, and said, "Genmuzo, I will give you some time to say goodbye to her."

"Thank you, Soul Emperor."

The Soul Burial Emperor turned to Liangfeng Sadayoshi (Liangfeng Xiulong) and asked: "Liangfeng Xiulong, where is Mo Zhaonu?"

"I knocked him out and placed him next to his brother's tomb."

"Yi Ye Shu, you will be the one to teach Mo Zhao Nu."

"Yeah." After Yi Ye Shu left, the Soul Burial Emperor ordered Mu Mei and Hong Ling to suppress Liang Feng Xiu Long and deal with him after Mo Zhao Nu came back.

Afterwards, Huanchen Buwu sent the backbone of the army, and Emperor Zanghun began to reorganize the Japanese army.

Excluding the peasant soldiers who were forcibly conscripted by the deceased lords, those who were too old or too young, and some warriors who were unwilling to surrender and had become a thing of the past.

The Soul Burial Emperor obtained 150,000 qualified soldiers from the more than 500,000 Japanese troops.

But it will take some time to integrate and coordinate this group of troops.

This is just the relatively simple military aspect. The most complex administrative aspect, such as the administrative division and implementation of government orders in the remaining three areas of Japan, is the next big thing.

There is also the most important planning of autonomous prefectures.

Now, the candidate for governor of the autonomous prefecture has been finalized by Emperor Zanghun after discussing with everyone earlier.

The governor is Akabane Nobunosuke, the military strategist of the Western Sword School and one of the Four Heavenly Kings.

Ryuya Uesugi, one of the Three Dragons of the East, serves as deputy governor, assisting Shinnosuke Akabane in handling the affairs of the Fuso Autonomous Prefecture.

Thanks to Wu Mengsheng for the reward.

Thanks to Dutianshensha Zhoutianxingchen for the reward.
