The Heavens Start to Reverse Fate from Martial Arts

Chapter 286: Discussion and Solution

Li Yide raised his eyes and looked at the beautiful woman sitting above him, his eyes showing an extremely complicated expression.

The former country girl, the little girl whom she never looked at with respect, has now become the uncrowned queen who holds the power of life and death over hundreds of millions of people.

When one person achieves enlightenment, all his family members will benefit. It is the same everywhere.

Li Yide exhaled lightly and said in a deep voice, "It was me. I toured the entire territory of Manzhou that day and happened to pass by the ancient village on my way back. I felt something and went in to check. I found that the girl from the Liu family had a Taoist body, so I thought of... taking her in for my own use."

"But not long after returning to the capital, the Liu family disappeared overnight for unknown reasons. Even when the royal family was mobilized to investigate, no clues were found."

He did not hide his thoughts, nor did he need to hide them.

I came here to ask for forgiveness, and my face has already been trampled into the mud.

If you still can't let go of your pride and dignity, people will look down on you and you may not be able to achieve your goal in the end.

Li Daotian cupped his hands and said, "I can testify to this and swear an oath that Liu Lin's family indeed disappeared without a trace overnight. It must have been done by a great master, otherwise there would not be no trace left."

After what he had seen and heard during this period, he had completely given up hope.

With the current status of Yiwu King City, if they don’t give up all hope, the only thing waiting for them is death.

During this period, he had tried to take Li Yide away from Yiwu City, but the old man Man Cang was watching him too closely and he couldn't find any chance at all.

The old man called himself King Cang, and he had lost all his previous arrogance and was willing to be a running dog of Prince Yiwu's Palace. Who could have thought that?
Wang Yao nodded, turned her head to look at Mo Wenyu, and asked gently, "That day, did you want to kill me and my brother?"

Mo Wenyu's face trembled, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Yes, when faced with a heaven-defying opportunity, few people can resist the temptation."

Wang Yao looked calm, and looked at Li Yide again, asking, "You sent Mo Wenyu to the ancient village, probably to kill my brother, and thus cut off Sister Liu Lin's feelings, right?"

Li Yide was indifferent for a moment, took a deep breath, and nodded, "Yes."

Liu Lin was the future princess he had chosen, so naturally he would not allow her to have someone else in her heart, so he decided to cut off the roots of her.

His choice was not wrong. He could only blame his bad luck for meeting the reincarnation of a powerful person. There was nothing to complain about.

Wang Yao nodded, his expression unchanged, and looked at Xu Wen and said, "Minister, how do you think this matter should be handled? Should these three people be killed? Or imprisoned?"

Li Yide's expression changed slightly. Just as he was about to speak, he was stopped by Li Daotian's eyes. Seeing the fear in his uncle's eyes, he swallowed the words in his mouth.

Li Daotian's heart was filled with alarm. At this moment, two terrifying auras of war immortals locked onto him. If he moved, he would die. This was a warning from his mind.

One of them was very familiar to him, it was the old man Cang Wang, but the other one gave him a very strange feeling.

He was sure that this was not the aura of King Yiwu, which shocked him greatly. How much secrets were hidden in King Yiwu's city?

Xu Wen walked out from behind Zhuge Wulong, took a step forward, and said with a folded hand: "I think he should be imprisoned. After all, we have not torn our faces with the royal family of Li State, and our status has never been able to occupy a righteous position. Killing him is against etiquette and law, and it is easy to be criticized."

By now, he knew in his heart that the Li royal family could no longer save the billions of human beings in Li Daoyu.

The final outcome for Li Daoyu would be either being conquered by the armies of monsters, ghosts, and barbarians, or being conquered by the army of Yiwu King City. The choice was obvious.

Wang Yao nodded slightly, looked at Zhuge Wulong and said, "How do you think the Chief Secretary should deal with this matter?"

Zhuge Wulong took a step forward, his eyes calm and calm, and said with a cupped hand: "I think he should be killed! But this matter involves the prince's private affairs, and it also concerns the future of Yiwu Wangcheng."

"Therefore, I think that we should immediately write a letter to the capital of Li State and ask Emperor Li to find out where Miss Liu and her family are. As for these three people, we can temporarily put them under house arrest and wait for Emperor Li to give an explanation, and then make a decision based on the situation."

Wang Yao nodded slightly: "Then let's do as the Chief Secretary ordered. Commander Yan, take the three away and keep them under strict supervision. Remember, don't treat them too harshly."

Yan Chixia clasped his fists and said, "I obey your orders." After that, he came to the three people, stepped aside and said, "Three of you, please come in!"

Li Daotian frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and without saying anything more, he turned around and took Li Yide and Mo Wenyu, followed by the bearded Yan Chixia, and slowly left the council hall.

The purpose of coming here today is to show Yiwu Wangcheng our attitude, so that Li Yide's life can be saved. Although the goal has not been achieved perfectly, it is acceptable. The rest depends on how the emperor decides.

Wang Yao retracted her gaze, a serious expression appeared on her beautiful face. She looked at the civil and military officials below and said solemnly, "The atmosphere in the city has become increasingly tense recently, and the feeling of impending storm has become increasingly strong. What do you think?"

Fan Ming took a deep breath, stepped forward, and said with a folded hand: "From the information I have learned, the forces that came to Yiwuwang City this time are all here to plot against the Dragon Tooth Rice. The most troublesome among them are the people from the Dao Sect and the Buddhist Sect."

Wang Yao smiled beautifully and looked at Fan Ming and said, "Teacher, can you tell me what you learned from the Heavenly Book Pavilion?"

The Heavenly Book Pavilion is considered a neutral force with a wide range of information sources.

Although we cannot learn too many secrets through the Heavenly Book Pavilion, the complex and comprehensive information itself should not be underestimated, as it can greatly make up for some of the shortcomings of Yiwu Royal City.

Fan Ming's eyes flashed with warmth. He stroked his beard, pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "In the five countries of Dali, Dayan, Daqi, Dachu, and Dazhao, Dragon Tooth Pills, like Spirit Crystals and Immortal Crystals, have become the currency of choice among the major forces."

"As the Dragon Tooth Pill spreads through Li Daoyu and several surrounding Daoyu, and its influence becomes wider and wider, its influence becomes more and more terrifying. As the saying goes, money can move people's hearts, so naturally countless forces have their eyes on it."

Fan Ming said, his expression becoming completely serious: "This time, it's not just the three major tribes of gods, demons, and monsters that are making moves, even the ghost tribe, which has always been secretive, has made some moves."

"Even within the human race... there are forces that have their eyes on this. The Buddhist and Taoist sects are the most prominent, followed by the five nations of Dali, Dayan, Daqi, Dachu, and Dazhao. Although the big forces in Zuzhou are out of reach, they should come too with their means."

"There are rumors that the Buddhist disciples of the Buddhist sect and the Taoist disciples of the Taoist sect have already set out for Li Daoyu, and the core disciples of other forces have also come. We need to make preparations early to avoid being taken advantage of by the bad guys when we are unprepared."

……

When all the officials in the hall heard Fan Ming's explanation, their expressions became more solemn and serious. The situation was far more troublesome than they had expected.

Right now, Yiwu Royal City has completely become the center of an endless storm and may collapse at any time. It concerns the life and death of hundreds of millions of human beings, so they have no choice but to be cautious.

Wang Yao's beautiful face was full of contemplation. She was well aware of the severity of the crisis. If she was not careful, Yiwu City would be doomed.

She glanced at the civil and military officials below her and said in a deep voice, "Do you have any countermeasures?" The voice rang out in the hall with a hint of solemnity. Most of the civil and military officials looked at each other and fell silent for a while.

Song Que's flawless face showed a stern and murderous look. He took a step forward, clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness, the situation is critical now. The most urgent task is to immediately expand the military force to ensure the border security of Yiwu King City."

"At the same time, send envoys to contact surrounding forces and seek support. Furthermore... impose the strictest curfew on Yiwuwang City, and try to stabilize the overall situation in the city to buy time for expanding the army."

Wang Yao nodded slightly, indicating her approval of Song Que's suggestion, but this was only a temporary solution and could not solve the fundamental problem.

Expanding military forces, seeking support, and imposing curfews are all necessary measures, but in the face of the coming storm, these can only serve to delay the situation.

Wang Yao looked at Zhuge Wulong and asked, "What is your opinion, Chief Secretary?"

Zhuge Wulong smiled slightly, stroked his silver beard, and asked with a smile: "Your Highness, I dare to ask, would the prince care about the spread of dragon tooth rice throughout the human race?"

Wang Yao was slightly stunned, thought for a moment, and shook his head gently, saying, "No, with my brother's great wisdom and broad mind, why would he care about the spread of the dragon tooth rice?"

"I would like to ask again, which is more important, the future of the human race or the interests of Yiwu Royal City?" The smile on Zhuge Wulong's face became more relaxed.

"Of course the future of the human race is important!" Wang Yao replied without thinking.

Yiwu Royal City is also a part of the human race, and my brother is even more determined to become the emperor of mankind. The future of the human race is naturally much more important than the interests of Yiwu Royal City.

Zhuge Wulong bowed and asked solemnly: "I dare to ask three questions. Are the invading enemies of the same mind?"

Wang Yao's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he instantly understood the meaning of Zhuge Wolong's three questions. He felt relieved and chuckled, "How do you think the Chief Secretary should implement it in order to maximize the benefits?"

Many people were still confused, but a few looked at Zhuge Wulong with admiration. After a few words, they suddenly understood the situation and the pressure in their hearts instantly dissipated.

Zhuge Wulong's eyes flashed with relief, and he became more and more satisfied with His Royal Highness Wang Yao's intelligence. He stood up, smiled and said, "Spread the word and hold a grand auction, with Dragon Tooth Rice and the method of planting as the finale. Of course... the auction is open to non-human forces!"

"This move can divide the invading enemies, transfer the pressure, earn a huge fortune, and make Yiwu Royal City famous. Before the auction ends, the human race forces that come here will become a helper for Yiwu Royal City. In this way, the current crisis can be resolved, and the armies of the three races outside the city can be deterred."

The officials in the palace were shocked. They once again witnessed Zhuge Liang's wisdom. This plan achieved multiple goals at once, taking all factors into consideration.

Although the uniqueness of the Dragon Tooth Rice was given up, it was not actually a big loss. The most important thing was that it could strengthen the overall strength of the human race and buy time for their own growth.

Wang Yao looked at Xu Wen and asked with a smile, "Shangshu Ling, what do you think of this strategy?"

Xu Wen showed admiration on his face and sighed, "I am not as wise as the Chief Secretary. This strategy is enough to solve the current crisis, and at the same time it can maximize the benefits and add more foundation to Yiwu King City. I admire you!"

Wang Yao smiled and looked at the civil and military officials present, and said softly: "My lords, this matter concerns the safety of Yiwu King City, and also the life and death of hundreds of millions of human beings. You must do your best to ensure the smooth progress of the auction."

As he said that, he stood up and looked at Zhuge Wulong, and said solemnly: "Chief Secretary, I allow you to dispatch the city guards, Jinyiwei, and civil and military officials. You must ensure the normal operation of the auction."

Zhuge Wulong looked solemn, bowed and said, "I accept your order!"

"Song Que, Yuwen Chengdu, the two of you will immediately start expanding the demon-slaying army and the barbarian-slaying army to ensure that the border defense line is not lost."

"A certain general will obey the order!" Song Que and Yuwen Chengdu stepped forward and clasped their fists together to receive the order.

"Minister, you are in charge of the curfew. Please control the scale and do not disturb the people too much."

"I obey your command." Xu Wen bowed and accepted the order.

Wang Yao issued a series of orders with a solemn expression, arranging many matters in detail, striving to leave nothing out.

"Gentlemen! This matter is of great importance and must not be taken lightly!" After Wang Yao gave the last order, he reminded again worriedly.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. We will do our best!" Civil and military officials hurriedly spoke out to assure.

They knew that they had to go all out to protect the safety of Yiwu Royal City and hundreds of millions of human beings, so they naturally did not dare to be careless in the slightest.

Wang Yao nodded, turned around and walked away gracefully. After leaving the meeting hall, she went straight to the Xushen Temple. She needed to add another insurance for this matter.

As the civil and military officials in the council hall left, the Yiwu City began to operate in an orderly manner like precise gears.

……

Lu Qiong sat by the window on the top floor of the inn, looking at the endless flow of people on the street below, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.

Seeing the big picture from the small, he saw a corner of the heritage of Yiwu City from the people coming and going, which made him feel more solemn.

"It seems that we need to be more careful in this operation. I still greatly underestimated the strength of Yiwu Royal City."

"I thought that a new force, even if there was a reincarnated great power standing behind it, would have a limit to how strong it could become in such a short period of time."

"Now it seems... the powerful is still the powerful. Even if he is down and out for a while, his methods are not comparable to those of ordinary people." Lu Qiong said softly.

Mo Tian sat aside, his face cold: "Two fists cannot beat four hands. No matter how powerful this Yiwu King is, as long as we seize the opportunity, we will be able to successfully seize the Dragon Tooth Rice."

Taotie remained silent, just vigilantly sensing the movements around him.

"There are quite a few powerful human beings coming this time. Even if we join forces, the chances of success are not high..." Lu Qiong looked worried, and glanced at Motian intentionally or unintentionally.

Mo Tian turned around and said in a cold voice: "Senior Mo Yun is outside the city, there is no need for you to test him and annoy him."

"Hahaha... Brother Motian misunderstood." Lu Qiong laughed dumbly and raised his glass, saying, "This matter is of great importance. Any mistake or omission may lead to our failure. Therefore, we need to integrate information from multiple parties to plan the layout. I really don't mean to test you."

Mo Tian was too lazy to argue with him, so he raised his glass and said, "I heard that the Buddha and the Taoist will come together, should we leave them here in Yiwu King City?"
