The gods descend into reality

Yeah, the superstitious kind.

If I suspect I have one million World Coins, does that mean I actually have one million World Coins?!

Xu Youzhen is a real talent.

Qian Qianyi, being on par with Qin Hui and Xu Youzhen, was certainly no pushover either.

I read in that history of the Ming Dynasty that Qian Qianyi, after the fall of the Ming Dynasty, and his concubine, the famous courtesan Liu Rushi, planned to commit suicide by jumping into a river to die for their country.

Then, because the water was too cold in the dead of winter, he gave up on suicide.

Even Liu Rushi couldn't stand it and thought Qian Qianyi's actions were extremely shameful, so she wanted to die for her country alone. It was truly rare to see a courtesan with such integrity.

Then, Liu Rushi was dragged ashore by Qian Qianyi.

Yes, these intellectuals talk a big game about integrity in ordinary times, but when it comes to real things, they chicken out faster than anyone else!

"Your Majesty, are you really going to jump?"

Qian Qianyi felt his throat was a little dry; it was the first month of the lunar calendar!

It's the coldest time of the year; the saying "ice three feet thick" is not an exaggeration, but a fact.

Just thinking about jumping in right now is terrifying!

Most importantly, even if His Majesty manages to get me out of here, I'm still very likely to fall seriously ill.

Although I am physically strong, only God knows whether I can pull through!

"Jump!"

Emperor Chongzhen's eyebrows twitched slightly, clearly indicating that his patience was nearing its limit.

"Very well, this old minister will jump now."

Qian Qianyi quickly responded and then slowly began to climb onto the large vat, tentatively testing the water with his feet.

"hiss"

Qian Qianyi inhaled a breath of cold air and looked up at Emperor Chongzhen.

"Your Majesty, could you please add some hot water? This water is too cold."

Ministers

Although the ministers felt speechless, they put themselves in the old man's shoes and realized that even if they jumped into the vat, they probably wouldn't be much worse off than the old man.

but

But His Majesty is clearly going to punish you, so you have to put up with it no matter what. You're really something, saying it so directly!

"bang"

A gunshot rang out, and the ministers present instantly shuddered. Some of the more timid ministers were so frightened that they wet themselves.

For a moment, a strange smell filled the entire hall.

At this moment, Chongzhen no longer concealed the anger on his face.

To be fair, Qian Qianyi was quite capable; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to join the big QG and be given important responsibilities later on.

But

Your water is too cold!

"Have you finished signing?"

Emperor Chongzhen looked down at the countless ministers below, and many of them remained silent, offering no pleasantries.

If one's previous impression of Chongzhen was that while there was some apprehension, there was absolutely no fear of him.

After all, some things, as long as they aren't discovered, have nothing to do with us. Even if you were the emperor, you couldn't just kill us without any reason, could you?

Now it's all about fear, even terror.

after all

We are not afraid of how strict the emperor is in governing his subordinates, because no matter how strict you are, we can still find loopholes.

I'm afraid the emperor might be unreasonable!

This used to be called a tyrant.

We despise those tyrants.

But when it really comes down to them...

That feeling was truly awful!

At least, in front of them, we don't even dare to breathe loudly anymore.

"Your Majesty, we are willing to go through fire and water for the sake of the Ming Dynasty!"

At that moment, all the ministers in the hall spoke in unison.

"Actually, I don't need you to sign this at all."

As Chongzhen spoke, he tore up all the donation documents in his hand. The ministers present paused for a moment, then burst into ecstasy.

This

Could it be that His Majesty has changed his mind? At least we've managed to save our money!

"The Five Weapons of the God of War!"

A cold voice came from behind the many ministers.

The next moment, endless magic power, accompanied by a storm, instantly filled the entire hall, blood splattered, and screams echoed.

"I never intended for you to leave here alive."

Chapter 683 Today's Umu Monster is acting a bit strange~

A hint of pleasure flashed in Chongzhen's eyes as he watched the Red Hare slaughtering its prey.

Actually, before I came back, I had considered what to do.

The normal approach would be to use both kindness and severity to appease these officials.

After all, the country still needs these ministers to assist in governance.

It's like a sophisticated mechanical machine.

Although all the parts in each part are of inferior quality, it's impossible to replace them all at once.

After all, if they were all replaced, the machine would stop working instantly.

The Ming Dynasty, now scarred and battered, is like a machine riddled with defective parts.

The logical approach would be to feign compliance and try to save the crumbling Ming Dynasty from its current predicament.

What happens next can be settled later.

But then I thought...

What a load of rubbish!

The Qin Emperor lent him three thousand cyborg soldiers!

Although there were only three thousand of them, the bones and skin of these cyborg soldiers were all made of a special alloy, so they could withstand the bombardment of the Red Coat Cannon head-on without any problems.

It is powered by an internal nuclear fusion reactor.

Emperor Chongzhen had no idea what nuclear fusion was.

In any case, these soldiers are incredibly strong. Given enough time, they could easily wipe out the enemy, even if they were to fight against thousands of them.

In that world's parlance, it would probably be called a "dimensional reduction attack".

With people like these around, why should I bother with any pretense?

Kill him!

After the killing, rely on these three thousand soldiers to pacify the world, and then slowly recruit some trustworthy people.

perfect!

Red Hare acted swiftly, and the ministers barely screamed; they all passed away peacefully.

It's fake. The screams were almost heard outside the palace; they all died horribly.

Xiao Se's family.

Xiao Se is cultivating.

After becoming a three-digit powerhouse, his cultivation speed slowed down considerably.

Or rather, after this level, you can no longer make much progress through cultivation alone.

According to the White Yaksha.

Alternatively, one could launch a war of blessings throughout the entire Little Garden, concentrating all the blessings in one's hands, thereby further elevating one's spirit to a two-digit powerhouse.

Either

Either seize all sovereignty over the sun in the ensuing war.

White Yaksha's idea was biased, while Xiao Se himself had been exploring a different path.

He will reflect his own incarnation upon all the heavens.

Although each transformation only grants a small amount of power, over time, it accumulates to become a considerable amount of power, even if it's just a small tree.

Of course, there are also faster ways.

Similar to the Great Sacrifice of the Perfect World, it involves destroying countless worlds to plunder the vital energy that existed at the time of each world's demise.

But I still can't bring myself to do it.

While conscience is something that may or may not be essential, there are some things that, once done once, might tempt you to do again, and then a third and fourth time.

At that time, one's humanity will probably be gradually extinguished.

"You've arrived?"

Did you know I was coming?

The long-legged beauty asked with some confusion, then her face showed a look of sudden realization.
