This god is really evil

Chapter 234 Seventh-Rank Human God Purple Qi
Li Yan looked calm, looked around, and said:

"I have not seen any eunuchs from the imperial court here, so how can you say you are receiving an imperial decree? Lord County Magistrate, are you trying to forge an imperial decree?"

According to the laws of the Great Qi Dynasty, only the eunuchs in the inner court could deliver imperial edicts. No one else had the qualification unless they were appointed by the emperor.

Shen Tuyun was startled by Li Yan's words, his eyes narrowed, and he said grimly:

"Lord Li is a man of sharp teeth. No wonder he was able to survive those murders..."

Originally, I wanted to give Li Yan a warning, but I didn't expect that the other party would not fall for it at all.

He immediately threw out a document and said:

"The Yuhua Sui case, the Xueling Sui case, and the Thousand Eyes Sect's uprising led to the heroic sacrifice of the former county governor, Mr. Song Kaida. Qinghe County has seen such major cases one after another, shocking the court. Your Majesty is furious and wants to investigate the government affairs of Qinghe County..."

"However, the position of Qinghe County cannot be left vacant for a long time. Prime Minister Yan advised His Majesty that since you are the Supervisor of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau of Qinghe County and the only remaining seventh-rank official, we might as well ask for the position of county magistrate for you."

"During these troubled times, we should keep things simple. The court sorcerer has used the spirit-controlling magic to deliver the imperial edict. After a few days, the eunuchs will come to announce the decree."

Li Yan raised his hand to take the document, and saw that it stated in detail that because the evil cult in Qinghe County had been so rampant during this period, even a county governor had died in Qinghe County and 3,000 elite soldiers of the demon camp had been lost, the court had already regarded Qinghe County as a place where filth and evil were hidden.

Although the former county magistrate Ding Youde and others had died in the Blood Spirit Case, they were ineffective in suppressing the evil spirits and had no idea how to govern the country. Although they were dead, they still could not escape the fate of having their property confiscated.

Li Yan, the supervisor of the Qinghe County Astronomical Observatory, has served as supervisor for a shorter time, but he is also guilty of failing to suppress evil spirits. He is now appointed as the seventh-rank Qinghe County Magistrate and concurrently the supervisor of the Astronomical Observatory. He is in charge of all affairs of Qinghe County for the time being, and will decide on rewards and punishments after the matter of the Ten Thousand Gods Alliance comes to an end.

Li Yan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

It turned out that this reward was obtained from the emperor by the evil prime minister Yan Shiren.

He is worthy of the reputation of being as wise as a demon.

Yan Shiren has a good plan.

If he could handle the affairs here during this period, and even make outstanding achievements in the process of suppressing the cult, Yan Shiren would be doing him a huge favor, and there would be some alienation in the hearts of the Qingliu party that originally supported Li Yan.

If something goes wrong, and the cult becomes powerful and causes chaos, then the Xiang party can take advantage of the situation and put all the blame on Li Yan, and even put the blame on the Qingliu party.

No matter what the outcome, this party will remain invincible.

However, the other party did not understand that what he wanted was never the seventh-rank county magistrate, but to move up step by step and become the emperor of the Great Qi.

The post of county magistrate can help him to increase his popularity among the people and enhance his divine aura, which will be of great benefit to his divine body in escaping from the Netherworld Prison.

Seeing Li Yan looking at the document expressionlessly, Yan Chaoyun beside Shen Tuyun could not help but sneer:

"The death of Qinghe County Magistrate Ding Youde has given County Magistrate Li an advantage. Congratulations."

He has always been arrogant, so naturally he looked down on this weak peasant from Qinghe County.

So what if you were born to be chosen by God? The world is not stable, and evil is rampant. Only your own force is real.

As soon as these words were spoken, all the county officials sitting in the county government office looked at the young county magistrate in front of them with mocking expressions.

In their opinion, the Thousand Eyed Sect has already become such a mess, not to mention the White Lotus Sect and the Alliance of Ten Thousand Gods.

This kind of appointment is clearly putting Li Yan on the spot. I wonder how long he can sit in the county magistrate's hall.

Li Yan laughed loudly, without even looking at Yan Chaoyun, and bowed to Shen Tuyun and said:
"My Lord, compared with me, you are really happy. With the death of County Magistrate Song, we have County Magistrate Shentu. I am so happy!"

Yan Chaoyun couldn't help but choke, and stood up with a whoosh, saying:
"You..." Shen Tuyun raised his hand to stop Yan Chaoyun, looked at Li Yan in front of him with a gloomy face, and said slowly:

"County Magistrate Li is quite eloquent, but I wonder how long he can remain so eloquent."

After a pause, he continued:

"Since we have obtained the documents, Lord Li, please go back. I will bring the officials from the county government here. Although the Qinghe County Office is small, it can barely serve as a county government. There is nothing for you to do here."

The implication was that they simply occupied the Qinghe County government office and used it as the temporary Anding County government office.

As for where the county magistrate Li Yan would go to work, they naturally didn't care.

Li Yan snorted coldly and was about to say something else when he heard exclamations and noise coming from the door.

Everyone in the hall turned their heads and saw a figure covered in blood, with disheveled hair, walking slowly in.

There was too much blood on his body, and there were sword wounds on his shoulders, arms, and back. There was even an arrow with a broken shaft stuck in his shoulder.

The moment he saw this figure, Li Yan couldn't help but stare, and immediately went up to him, holding the other person's arm, and said:
"Master Liu!"

The person who came was Liu Yunhe!
Li Yan then couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He could feel that the other party's breathing was still relatively stable, but he was a little overdrawn. The wounds on his body were only minor, not fatal.

Most of the blood came from the enemies.

Liu Yunhe was supported by Li Yan and stood still at this time. Under his messy hair, his eyes were like sharp swords, slowly sweeping across the county officials present.

He tried his best to stop the White Lotus sect soldiers and buy time for the people who wanted to evacuate the county town at the last minute. In the end, he was almost surrounded and killed by a group of White Lotus sect priests. He finally escaped after a desperate fight.

Finally, he rescued several groups of civilians who were almost surrounded and insulted by bandits on the road. He finally escorted these people to Qinghe County, and then went to the county government office to look for everyone.

Seeing these people dressed neatly, as if nothing had happened, still fighting for power and party struggles here, Liu Yunhe was filled with anger beyond words.

Seeing his appearance, a group of officials including Shentu Yun could not help but look away, not daring to look him in the face.

The defense zone where Liu Yunhe was located was the last to be notified to evacuate, and many people who were fleeing heard about how Liu Yunhe fought desperately against the White Lotus monster.

Some people thought that Liu Yunhe had died in the county town, but they didn't expect that he would survive.

Liu Yunhe looked at the county officials in front of him and said in a hoarse voice:

"I am... so ashamed! I am serving in the same court as you beasts. I bring shame to our ancestors!"

Upon hearing this, all the officials present couldn't help but change their expressions and flashes of resentment in their eyes, but most of them didn't say anything.

Instead, Yan Chaoyun snorted coldly and said:

"Lord Liu is attacking this room full of imperial officials. What a great power! No wonder Magistrate Li is so domineering. It's true that a good teacher produces good students!"

After a pause, he continued:

"Since Lord Liu is so arrogant and selfless, does that mean he has defeated the White Lotus Demon Soldiers and saved Anding County? That's a great achievement... If he didn't do it, why are you making such a boast?"

Liu Yunhe's eyes widened, his hair and beard stood up, like an old lion, and he cursed:
"I'll fuck you!"
