Following that, two subordinates of Mo Yiming from the Demon Sect appeared.

"Damn, Ghost Shadow Patriarch is really perverted. My legs are weak just now."

"That's right, why play with ghosts when there are so many other things to do? It's so scary, let's do it."

"Okay, let's get started."

Along with the voices of the two martial saints, a series of seals with green light were seen falling. In the Houmochen family's house, which had been beaten to pieces, vines quickly grew out, rolling out the gold and silver treasures in the ruins, and then cleared the ruins on the ground by themselves.

The remaining two Martial Saints each used their own methods to draw on the power of the four earth veins, comb the earth's energy, and guide the water veins. In a short while, they turned the precious land occupied by the Houmochen family into a lush, top-level spiritual field.

This is the secret technique of the Mo Yiming clan, a technique for transforming nature specially developed after being deduced and improved by Yang Zhao.

It can devour the remaining luck and fortune of the Houmochen family and turn the ruins into a treasure land.

From now on, this precious land and spiritual farm will be directly under the government. If you plant natural treasures, it can accelerate the growth of spiritual medicines. If you plant ordinary food, this land alone can provide food and drink for everyone in Lantian County.

Chapter 571: Kill them all!

The live broadcast in the round water mirror will not end until the renovation of the entire Houmochen family is completed.

At this time, the entire Wenhua Hall was filled with deathly silence.

Many people know that after Yang Zhao became King Zhao, he established a government, inherited the power of heaven and earth, and even subdued a large group of powerful demons.

But in everyone's impression, this so-called conquest.

In fact, the two parties reached a cooperative relationship. Yang Zhao used the power of Yunchao to worship the strongest people in the Demon Sect like ancestors, and used this to take advantage of the situation to intimidate the world.

Almost all the members of the Guanlong aristocratic families have done this kind of thing.

Hundreds of years before the Sui Dynasty, this area had been in turmoil. Even the most powerful families had experienced times of danger and weakness. Many families relied on this method of offering sacrifices and leveraging power to get through the most difficult period in their family history.

But who could have thought that an unimaginably powerful Ghost Shadow Ancestor was actually hundreds of miles away, and before taking any action, he had to bow respectfully towards Chang'an to Yang Zhao.

What's more, after the war, those who came out to clean up the mess were all powerful Martial Saints.

No matter whether it was the Ghost Shadow Ancestor or the Cleansing Martial Saint, the various methods they displayed were completely unlike human martial arts. They were more like legendary immortal arts and magic.

It's too outrageous.

These powerful demon sects did not have such means when they were suppressed by Emperor Wen more than a hundred years ago.

You're almost becoming an immortal, why should you be a dog for others?

That's right. In the eyes of most people, the respectful attitude displayed by the Ghost Shadow Ancestor and the Cleansing Martial Saint is no different from that of domestic servants, and they are fanatical and loyal ones.

Oh my God, what kind of magic potion did His Royal Highness Prince Zhao give to these powerful demons?

That’s right, in the eyes of everyone, it was not normal at all for so many powerful demon sect masters to be driven like this.

Since His Royal Highness Prince Zhao established the Yun Dynasty, the benefits brought by the national fortune have been indeed considerable.

The blessing of national fortune can add a hundred years to the lifespan of mortals.

But in everyone's perception, this power that increases the lifespan of mortals is completely useless for powerful people at the level of celestial beings or martial saints.

This kind of longevity-enhancing item is available in all major dynasties in Kyushu.

At most, with the blessing of Yang Zhao's national fortune, a larger share could be allocated.

However, these people do not know that the ability to prolong life bestowed by national fortune is only a minor benefit.

Currently, more than 90% of the people who can be blessed by the ninth-grade national fortune are dying old men from major aristocratic families.

These people originally had little talent in martial arts and were old and mentally exhausted. After being blessed by the national fortune, they only seemed to be more energetic.

These people cannot feel the invisible benefits such as aptitude, understanding, and speed of cultivation at all.

However, people like Dugu Xin, Yuan Shu, Wei Yuanzhao, etc., are proud of their status and unwilling to strive for the blessing of the ninth rank of national fortune. Isn't it shameful enough to compete for credit with a bunch of dying old men?

Therefore, up to now, these people's understanding of the blessing of national destiny is extremely one-sided.

This is also one of the original sins of the aristocratic families: being too arrogant.

Until this moment, the Ghost Shadow Ancestor under Yang Zhao's command displayed his thundering methods.

The destruction of the Houmochen family woke up those aristocratic families who were still arrogant from their dreams.

The Houmochen family was once one of the most powerful families in the Guanlong area.

Even now, a skinny camel is still bigger than a horse, and there are even artifacts like flower armor and scented spears hidden in it.

But even so, the resistance of the Houmochen family was not able to cause even a single ripple under the hands of the Ghost Shadow Ancestor.

That’s right, the flower armor and the scented spear are both artifact-level existences.

These two treasures were created by the whole country with all its might after Wan Ai Chounu proclaimed himself emperor hundreds of years ago.

Even the Glazed Pegasus was an entity that had once swallowed the dragon energy of the emperor.

Only half a step away, the Glazed Pegasus will be able to go one step further and transform into a dragon horse, a divine beast at the ceiling level of a Martial Saint.

With such a background, he is already considered a high-ranking person among the aristocratic families in Guanlong.

But the methods displayed by the Ghost Shadow Ancestor were simply terrifying.

Just when the vast majority of court officials and civil servants had already begun thinking about how to beg for mercy from Yang Zhao.

But Yang Zhao sneered and swept his sleeves. The round water mirror in the air turned into two, two into four, four into eight, and in the blink of an eye, it split into dozens of mirrors.

At the same time, the ancestral lands of dozens of aristocratic families were also shown in the split screen.

"That's my Liu family's ancestral home, no!"

"Your Highness, please have mercy on me. I am willing to die as an apology for my crime. Please have mercy on me."

"My tyrant, are you going to go to war with all my families?"

"It's over, it's all over!"

"Hundreds of years of foundation were destroyed in one move. We are the sinners of the family..."

The people from the aristocratic families who manifested their family's ancestral lands suddenly showed all kinds of human behaviors in the court. Some were crying, some were begging for mercy, and some were cursing.

But it was obvious that these people were suppressed by an invisible energy and could not move at all.

Only Yang Zhao, like a god, sat on the dragon throne, his eyes seemed to be hanging down from the sky, with unprecedented indifference, coldness, and brutality.

Above the round water mirror, killing began.

All the most powerful demon sect masters under Yang Zhao's command were dispatched at this moment. They gathered in groups of three or two, and when they reached their destination, a fierce battle and a bloodbath ensued.

Once someone is defeated and encounters a family with a strong foundation, the Ghost Shadow Ancestor will travel through the void to support the rescue in the entire Guanzhong area.

Batch after batch of aristocratic families were slaughtered.

In the court, hundreds of courtiers cried bitterly and kept begging for mercy on Yang Zhao's forehead.

Unfortunately, Yang Zhao remained unmoved.

To be honest, Yang Zhao has been quite tolerant towards these aristocratic families. Since coming to Chang'an, he has given them many chances.

Including the purge before the last time he became king.

Yang Zhao only slaughtered the minions, merchants, and pawns pushed forward by the aristocratic families, and did not actually take action against the aristocratic families.

Yang Zhao originally thought that his kindness, coupled with the emergence of a lot of new benefits, would be able to gain the support of these aristocratic families.

After all, Yang Zhao's power is not yet truly invincible.

However, these aristocratic families were greedy and unaware of it. They thought that their even the slightest concession was a sign of weakness, and they even dared to unite silently in the court to force me.

Start killing them all, and the problem will be solved.

As for whether this massacre of the aristocratic families would cause people from other regions of the Sui Dynasty to unite and resist him, Yang Zhao could not care less.

Chapter 572: The original sin of the family is arrogance and greed

Since returning to Chang'an of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Zhao has actually been in a dormant state.

Even though he made enemies with the Li clan, drove the Yuwen clan out of Guanzhong, and took over the entire Guanlong area with a crushing force, Yang Zhao never really made enemies with the aristocratic families of the Sui Dynasty.

At the beginning, it was because Yang Zhao lacked confidence that he had to play tricks on those aristocratic families.

Later, Yang Zhao wanted to govern Guanlong and accumulate strength. Even though his strength surpassed that of the aristocratic families in Guanlong, he did not treat these people badly. Instead, he offered them benefits and cooperated with them.

In the end, Yang Zhao discovered that these aristocratic families were rotten to the core.

There are outstanding talents among these aristocratic families.

On the contrary, in the court, after those old men exploded, they were even able to suppress famous ministers in history such as Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui in terms of court fighting, governing the people, and making plans.

It doesn't matter whether these people unite or rely on their family influence.

All in all, these people can help Yang Zhao.

But unfortunately, these people are too greedy and selfish. They will follow whoever feeds them. Once the core interests of the family are touched, they will turn their guns against Yang Zhao.

Coincidentally at this time, Yang Zhao unexpectedly gained the loyalty of a large group of powerful men from the Demon Sect through Xiang Yutian.

In this way, Yang Zhao was not only as stable as a rock in Guanlong, but also had the confidence to declare an all-out war against all the aristocratic families of the Sui Dynasty.

There are four strong men at the ceiling level of Martial Saint, among whom the Ghost Shadow Ancestor is already approaching the peak of humanity.

There are also dozens of powerful martial saints accumulated by the Demon Sect over hundreds of years.

In this situation, how could Yang Zhao bear it?

In Yang Zhao's current view, rescuing Yang Su and Yang Xuangan was not a big deal at all. Whether sending some Martial Saints to rescue or sending out some Great Snow Dragon Cavalry, they could easily solve the trouble Yang Xuangan was facing in Hebei.

It wasn't like they were really going to go into full-scale war with Yang Guang's million-strong army. They just wanted to intercept a few of them so that Yang Xuangan could retreat with his army.

Yang Zhao didn't even need to bring this kind of thing to the court.

But Yang Zhao chose to say it in the court.

Those court officials who came from aristocratic families united together, thinking that this was a restriction and test of Yang Zhao and the imperial power.

However, he did not expect that this was also Yang Zhao's test of these aristocratic families in Guanzhong.

With the loyalty of powerful demons such as Ghost Shadow Ancestor, the support of these aristocratic families is no longer as important to Yang Zhao as before. Instead, the issue of loyalty has become the core factor.

The aristocratic families that Yang Zhao wanted to keep were those who were loyal to him and who could stand up and fight for him when facing difficulties.

You can't just give out a lot of benefits and then keep a group of ungrateful wolves.

The human heart can never withstand temptation.

After this test, he found that everyone in the court was ungrateful. Even the Dugu clan, the Yuan clan, and the Jingzhao Wei family, who he had forgiven time and time again, stood against him.

This also made Yang Zhao completely give up on these so-called aristocratic families.

In the Wenhua Hall, there were cries and wails everywhere.

In the round water mirror, one after another aristocratic families were flattened and wiped out. In just less than half an hour, hundreds of families had completely disappeared in Guanzhong.

The killing continued, but Yang Zhao remained unmoved like a god on earth.

Gradually, the crying and wailing in the court became weaker and weaker.

Those court officials who saw no hope wiped the blood from their foreheads and stared at Yang Zhao with resentful and hateful eyes.

"Your Highness, there has been enough killing today, right?"

"Need not!"

Changsun Wuji was also shocked by the massacre, and was even more afraid of causing a chain reaction outside Guanlong, so he whispered to Yang Zhao for advice.

Yang Zhao simply waved his hand and interrupted Changsun Wuji's words.

Immediately afterwards, Yang Zhao stood up and brought Changsun Wuji and others to a fourth-rank minister who hated Yang Zhao very much, and looked him in the eye.

"Tyrant, you will be punished. You have slaughtered the noble families. This world will not tolerate you."

His family was destroyed and he had no roots, but this official was not afraid of death. He gritted his teeth and roared at Yang Zhao.

Yang Zhao smiled coldly, as if explaining, but also as if mocking, and said: "Wuji, do you know this person? The head of Gaoling Zhang family, just half a year ago, this person's family was suppressed by the Yuwen family and almost destroyed. I drove the Yuwen family out of Guanzhong, and then when I opened up the Silk Road, I granted the Gaoling Zhang family a small share, and also granted this person to serve in the court as a fourth-rank official."

As Yang Zhao spoke, the head of the Zhang family, who was originally full of hatred, revealed a twisted expression of guilt and hatred on his face.

After a while.

The head of the Zhang family was ultimately dominated by hatred and roared, "So what? You, Yang Zhao, want to rule Chang'an and Guanlong. The Yuwen family is your natural enemy. You drive the Yuwen family away only for your own sake."
