But at this court meeting, there were only the emperor and his ministers.
It was originally just a minor matter, and if the people from the Demon Sect had been nicer and admitted their mistakes, it would have been over.
But now, Yang Zhao's expression became even colder and more severe.
Chapter 693: The Demon Sect surrenders and the worshiper begs for mercy
As an emperor, one is not afraid of treacherous ministers or flatterers, nor is he afraid of cliques or factions.
Because these things cannot shake the foundation of those in power.
But there is one thing: an emperor cannot be without dignity.
If you give a little face to this person today and a little face to that person tomorrow, the emperor's majesty will be gone. Once the emperor loses his majesty, will the people below you be tempted to pretend to obey your orders and deceive your superiors and subordinates?
Just like the problem Yang Zhao is facing now.
Originally, the matter was not a big deal. When top warriors above the Martial Saint level fight each other, there is a certain degree of death.
A few deaths are nothing.
There was no way Yang Zhao could punish a group of top experts from the Guanlong court.
But now, these powerful demons are going to confront Yang Zhao head-on and demand that little bit of face.
Yang Zhao sneered.
At this time, Zhu Yuyan, who was next to Yang Zhao, had also noticed the cold aura on Yang Zhao. Almost in an instant, she understood where the powerful men from the Demon Sect had done wrong.
In a sense, the powerful men of the Demon Sect are Zhu Yuyan’s family.
"Your Highness..."
"Ok?"
Zhu Yuyan opened her mouth instinctively and wanted to plead for the people from the Demon Sect, but in an instant, she was met with Yang Zhao's cold and ruthless eyes.
In an instant, Zhu Yuyan's whole body stiffened and her heart shuddered.
I just said that those people from the Demon Sect were as stupid as donkeys, how come I almost found a way.
Concern is chaos.
Zhu Yuyan's heart trembled, but her mind worked very quickly, and she said, "Your Highness, I think that the Demon Sect Shadow Guards were also guilty in the previous border battle, and they should be convicted together with the generals."
After understanding Yang Zhao's thoughts, Zhu Yuyan's tone of voice changed very quickly, from begging for mercy to admitting guilt.
Yang Zhao's cold and fierce aura did not diminish. His gaze, like that of a god, moved away from Zhu Yuyan and then looked at the people of the Demon Sect, saying, "What do you say?"
When the people from the Demon Sect saw this situation, they couldn't understand it.
They have all lived for hundreds of years, so they are all smart people.
If you want to enjoy the benefits, you have to behave like a worker.
Once you enter the court, you can no longer act the way you do in the underworld.
The first one to react was the Ghost Shadow Ancestor. He flashed and crawled directly beside Yang Zhao, saying, "Your Highness, I am guilty of failing to control the work of the Shadow Guards. Please punish me, Your Highness."
Among all the people in the Demon Sect, the most loyal one is undoubtedly the Ghost Shadow Ancestor.
Moreover, Yang Zhao also knew that some time ago, after Yang Zhao fell into Chiyou's Blood Cave, the Ghost Shadow Ancestor had been consulting various books since then, trying to find a way to break open Chiyou's Blood Cave and rescue Yang Zhao.
It was precisely because of the Ghost Shadow Ancestor's indifference to affairs that caused those powerful demon sect members to relax and cause trouble.
Otherwise, with Ghost Shadow Patriarch's loyalty to Yang Zhao and his current top combat power among the Demon Sect, he would not allow the Demon Sect's people to act recklessly.
The same goes for Mu Qingliu, Mo Yiming and Xiang Yutian.
Mu Qingliu was placed in the central cabinet by Yang Zhao. Mo Yiming and Xiang Yutian were in charge of natural mountains and rivers, and were not directly involved in the management of the shadow guards who were now composed of the powerful men from the Demon Sect.
But all this is not a reason.
What really made Yang Zhao angry was not the chaos on the battlefield, but the fact that these demon sects banded together to resist his authority.
Led by the Ghost Shadow Ancestor, Mu Qingliu, Mo Yiming, Xiang Yutian, Lu Jingxiu, Li Shuzhuang, Wei E and others also realized what was going on and hurried forward to apologize.
Looking at the group of people from the Demon Sect lowering their heads.
Yang Zhao's anger had just subsided a little, but he was still a little angry, and said: "I thought that you would only realize your mistakes after I asked you to use the Emperor's World-Suppressing Bell."
Upon hearing Yang Zhao's words, all the powerful demon sect warriors present trembled all over.
The true spirit is placed in the Huangji Zhenshi Bell.
If Yang Zhao was really angered, he would directly use the Huangji Zhenshi Bell to attack everyone's true spirits, which would be a catastrophic disaster.
"I am guilty, Your Highness, please calm down!"
Seeing that Yang Zhao was really angry, a large group of powerful demon sect members began to feel panic in their hearts.
He watched the powerful demon sect members bow their heads and admit their mistakes, not daring to say a word.
Yang Zhao also said nothing.
It was not until this time that True Man Zi Yang, Old Man Ru Meng, and Xie Xuan stopped and came out.
Xie Xuan was the first to say, "Your Highness, this is not entirely the fault of the Shadow Guards. The attack by the five parties was too sudden, and it was the first time that the various court agencies cooperated in a war. It is normal that there were some omissions. Please calm down, Your Highness."
True Man Zi Yang and Old Man Ru Meng also said, "Your Highness, please calm down."
Only after seeing Xie Xuan, Zi Yang Zhenren, and Ru Meng Old Man speak did Yang Zhao suppress his intense anger.
In a sense, Yang Zhao's punishment of the people from the Demon Sect was also a way to vent his anger on behalf of Xie Xuan and other worshippers.
The original purpose of the powerful demons to create chaos in the war was to intimidate the worshippers.
Only after Xie Xuan and the other two gave him the excuse did Yang Zhao step down.
At the same time, this is also an opportunity that Yang Zhao can give to Xie Xuan and the other two to show favor to the powerful members of the Demon Sect, so that they can better integrate into the Guanlong court.
"Everyone, stand up. Today, in consideration of the three priests' advice to you, I will not punish you severely."
"After the court meeting is over, you will pay for it and send it to the homes of the soldiers who fought on the battlefield to make amends."
"Fine him two ranks of nobility as a warning to others."
"If it happens again, don't blame me for not remembering our friendship."
After finishing speaking, Yang Zhao flicked his fingers and a stream of light disappeared into the jade seal in front of him, removing most of the blessing of national fortune on a group of powerful demon sect leaders.
On the surface, the punishment was for the people from the Demon Sect who caused trouble on the battlefield.
But in fact, everyone knew that Yang Zhao was punishing them for disrespecting the emperor's majesty.
At the same time, this also made everyone present become more in awe of Yang Zhao.
After dealing with the remaining issues in the court.
Yang Zhao did not dwell on the issue any longer, and glanced at Gu Yue beside him, saying, "I have summoned all of you today. In addition to rewards and punishments, I have another matter to discuss with you..."
Soon, Yang Zhao told all the things and speculations about Chiyou's blood cave, Youquan blood demon, Yang Guang's conspiracy, etc.
Especially after Yang Guang did a lot of big things, he may still be alive now, hiding in the dark to do things, collecting essence and blood, cultivating blood nerves, etc.
This series of events also made everyone shocked.
Not to mention anything else, the threat posed by Yang Guang himself was enough to make everyone present feel cold.
If Yang Guang is allowed to grow stronger, I'm afraid it will be difficult to contain him.
Chapter 694 Yang Guang's troubles, development direction
It has to be said that after many of Yang Guang's plans were sabotaged by Yang Zhao, his method of escaping was quite amazing.
Because of the chaos in the previous seven or eight years, the Sui Dynasty became unstable and Yang Guang himself became a puppet.
A Sui Dynasty that could not manage its business was undoubtedly a burden to Yang Guang.
On the contrary, it would be more advantageous for Yang Guang to get rid of this mess, do something secretly, and go into battle with a light load.
The civil strife and countless wars in the Sui Dynasty were enough for Yang Guang to collect countless blood.
Not to mention, Yang Guang also dragged down the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty.
Although the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty had not yet truly entered the game, they had already made some moves early on, deploying their troops around the area, waiting for the Sui Dynasty to be weakened so that they could reap the benefits.
Of course, these wars are not a big problem for Guanlong under Yang Zhao's command.
The current strength of the Guanlong Court is not enough to conquer the whole world, but it is more than enough to protect itself.
Even when Yang Zhao was away, the siege by the five forces was directly defeated and repelled by the confused officials and generals in Guanlong.
Now with Yang Zhao in charge, the cohesion of the Guanlong area will increase several times.
What's more, Yang Zhao can use the power of national destiny at any time, so even if a true immortal descends to the earth, he can completely guarantee his invincibility.
The one who really gave Yang Zhao and everyone else a headache was the Yang Guang who was hiding inside.
As for how difficult the blood nerves and blood demons are to deal with, everyone has already known about it from the blood demon calamity that happened in the immortal sect in the past.
Without saying too much, as long as Yang Guang can reach the pinnacle of humanity.
In the entire Kyushu world, it would become extremely difficult to completely kill the opponent.
As long as one Blood God Son is missed, even if Yang Guang's main body is killed, he can reincarnate and take over another body, and it won't take long for him to recover.
"Your Highness, I wonder if you can design a trap to lure Yang Guang into it?"
"No, Yang Guang is definitely not a fool. Likewise, we don't have any means to ensure that all of Yang Guang's spirits will be destroyed."
"How about the sealing method? Seal Yang Guang completely like the Nether Spring Blood Demon."
"With the previous incident with the Nether Spring Blood Demon as a warning, wouldn't Yang Guang have a backup plan? Wouldn't this alert the enemy?"
"To kill Yang Guang, we must do it cleanly and thoroughly, otherwise there will be endless troubles."
"Then we can only deploy scouts and spies widely and take our time..."
Everyone present discussed Yang Guang's bug for a while, but there was really no good solution.
Unless someone can completely block the back door of the law of blood from the Heavenly Dao space.
Otherwise, just one secret technique of the Blood God would be enough to give people a headache.
Looking at the sadness on everyone's faces.
Yang Zhao was also helpless. He turned his head to Gu Yue and gave him a look that indicated that he was unable to help.
In fact, Yang Zhao was still a little happy.
Yang Guang is indeed a huge hidden danger, but his cultivation is too low after all. Even if he takes advantage of the chaotic war to collect a large amount of blood evil, it is not easy for him to reach the pinnacle of humanity in a short period of time, let alone become an invincible strong man.
On the other hand, as long as Yang Guang is not eliminated, the blood demon will still cause chaos.
Yang Zhao had an excuse to keep Gu Yue in Chang'an.
Even Dan Chenzi, Li Yingqi, Xing Lian and others would probably live in the human world with many disciples from Mount Emei.
To some extent, this can allow Yang Zhao to understand many things about the Immortal Sect in advance.
As long as we have more contacts, there will be no worries about not being able to reach cooperation with the immortal sect.
If worst comes to worst, there is always the Immortal Gate.
When necessary, Yang Zhao was fully capable of using the Immortal Sect's cover to make some arrangements.
This result was also within Gu Yue's expectations.
In response to Yang Zhao's eyes that contained many meanings, Gu Yue rolled his eyes at Yang Zhao, quickly made a hand seal, and then disappeared directly in the hall.
As the only true immortal in the entire Guanlong area, he does have this privilege of coming and going freely.
Wait until Gu Yue leaves.
Yang Zhao smiled, and then he swung his sleeves and said, "Well, for the matter of killing Yang Guang, the Shadow Guards will temporarily assign the disciples of the Demon Sect and the people of the Six Bats Hall to conduct extensive investigations. However, after the information about the Blood Demon is reported back to the court, it will be handed over to the people of Emei Immortal Mountain for processing. The rest of the matters will be discussed later."
"Next, Mr. Fang, tell me, now that the Great Sui Dynasty is in turmoil, what should we do next?"
Matters of rewards and punishments, and the matter of the blood demon Yang Guang, are not particularly important.
Just pay attention, don't put too much thought into it.
But after Yang Guang had done so many great things, the whole world had fallen into complete chaos, with various forces standing side by side and rebel kings everywhere, which also meant that the struggle for hegemony in troubled times had begun.
