The king behind the empress

Chapter 312 I'm Not Targeting You

The sects in the Great Zhou were ruled to death long after the founding of the Great Zhou. Not to mention having the strength to fight against the imperial court, even the establishment of a sect and the recruitment of disciples had to be reported to the local government. , and even the imperial court has a special decree that stipulates the specific number of sects.

However, under the restrictions of these laws and regulations, the sect's power, which was originally quite strong, began to gradually decline.

After all, warriors yearn for happiness and enmity. If they have joined the sect and practiced martial arts so hard, they can't do it casually. Being an official and a half job is no more comfortable than being a bitter warrior.

Under the influence of this kind of thinking, fewer and fewer people join the sect. The top sects are good, they have inheritance, and they are warriors. The most important thing is to know the current affairs, and it is also useful to the court. So after obtaining the official certification from the imperial court, even if the imperial court has restrictions on them, these top sects can still live comfortably by relying on human warriors.

But those sects below the top level are even more miserable. There is no one at the top and no one at the bottom. In order to continue the sect, they can only choose to cooperate with the local aristocratic family.

It's just that the aristocratic family is not easy to get along with, each of these people is a master who eats people without spit out bones, so after a few generations of cooperation, these sects that were originally majestic and majestic have completely become aristocratic families vassals and thugs.

Although the Zongmen has survived, the essence of the Zongmen has been lost, and its strength has been weakened many times. Take Anping Zong as an example. It is said that it is a sect, but it is actually more like a gang. In addition to relying on the Great Elder, a martial artist in the Soul Realm, Anpingzong relied more on the Yuan family's power to gain a foothold in Nanjun.

And relying on this strength, it is very difficult to keep Anpingzong, let alone fight against Mo Zizai's army.

So facing Mo Zizai's ultimatum at this time, Wu Yuanzhou's face became very ugly. As for these disciples in the sect, not to mention whether they have the courage to fight against the Yuzhi army, even if they have the courage, this point of strength lies in Yuzhi's army. In front of Zhijun, he was just dying.

"My lord, I really can't find the Great Elder for a while."

Wu Yuanzhou's tone was very bitter. According to Xu Shiyuan, the Great Elder probably died in Anpingzong yesterday. Where can I find Mo Zizai a Great Elder in the Soul Realm?

What Wu Yuanzhou couldn't figure out was why Mo Zizai knew that he, Anpingzong, was involved in this matter. He knew Fatty Hu very well, and he was very cautious. He personally presided over yesterday's assassination. Free to leave any clues.

And what Wu Yuanzhou couldn't figure out the most was why Mo Zizai's speed was so fast. After only one night, he had already locked on Anpingzong and killed him directly. Isn't this efficiency too fast?

"Could it be that someone who was assassinated yesterday was captured alive?"

A possibility flashed in Wu Yuanzhou's mind, but his face remained calm, and he continued to complain: "My lord, I, Anpingzong, usually obey the law when I ask myself. I don't know who spread rumors in front of you, saying that I am Anping. Zong's people assassinated you, can you let him come out and confront Wu Mou face to face, otherwise Wu Mou will not be reconciled even if he dies."

"Sect Master Wu, don't get me wrong."

Mo Zizai showed a gentle smile on his face, and said, "No one has pointed out that you, Anpingzong, participated in the assassination."

"No one identified?"

Wu Yuanzhou was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but feel happy when he saw the smile on Mo Zizai's face. He thought that Mo Zizai's previous words were just to deceive him, but now he has passed the test.

Thinking of this, Wu Yuanzhou couldn't help but secretly praised his calm character in his heart. If he had acted irrationally when facing Mo Zizai just now, he might be expelled from Nanjun today by Anpingzong.

Thinking of this, Wu Yuanzhou said with a smile on his face: "What the lord means is that I, Anpingzong, have no suspicions, right?"

"Ok?"

Mo Zizai looked at Wu Yuanzhou in some surprise, and said, "Why do you think so? What I mean is that no one accuses you of Anpingzong, and I want to investigate it myself."

"Yesterday, there were seventeen Soul Realm fighters who assassinated this king, and there are only your sects who have Soul Realm fighters in Nanjun, so this king will let you come out from the Great Elder of the Soul Realm of Anping Sect. If he is here, it means this This matter has nothing to do with your Anpingzong, if he is not here, it means that your Anpingzong must be involved in this matter."

Mo Zizai made it clear. He said condescendingly to Wu Yuanzhou: "In other words, this king is not targeting your Anping sect. There are sects with soul-level warriors in the entire South County, and none of them can escape."

"As for your Anpingzong first, it's just that your Anpingzong is relatively close."

"..."

After hearing Mo Zizai's words, Wu Yuanzhou's smile suddenly froze on his face.

In the entire South County, there are at least dozens of sects in the state of spirit and soul. Mo Zizai actually intends to lead soldiers to suppress them one by one. Is Mo Zizai crazy?
Wu Yuanzhou kept roaring in his heart, but he didn't dare to say anything in front of Mo Zizai. After being silent for a long time, he said in a bitter tone: "My lord, my elder is really not here. In the sect, you just arbitrarily judged that I, Anpingzong, participated in the assassination just because the Great Elder was not there, so you are not afraid of killing innocent people by mistake?"

"My king's purpose has always been to kill the wrong person rather than let him go."

"If you are really innocent, then you can only be considered unlucky."

Mo Zizai's face didn't change at all, he looked at Wu Yuanzhou and said lightly: "Besides, do you really think you guys are innocent?"

"If my king remembers correctly, according to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, you Anpingzong, the sect is only allowed to have a maximum of 200 people, but now..."

Speaking of this, Mo Zizai glanced at the surrounded Anpingzong, and said in a cold tone: "I'm afraid, you have more than 2000 people in Anpingzong, right?"

Wu Yuanzhou's heart trembled when he heard this. He suddenly realized that Mo Zizai might not only want to find out the origins of those assassins this time, but more importantly, he might be planning to attack the sect.

Is Mo Zizai crazy to destroy the aristocratic family first and then move the sect?He is going to be an enemy of the world!

After he figured it out, Wu Yuanzhou looked at Mo Zizai in horror. He really couldn't understand why Mo Zizai did this, but he knew that no matter at any time, he should not offend a lunatic, especially if this lunatic still holds the power of life and death. when.

Therefore, Wu Yuanzhou didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and just knelt down on the ground, "Return to the lord, I, Anpingzong, are guilty."

"The Great Elder in my sect was bewitched by someone, and he did participate in your assassination yesterday. I will say everything, and I only hope that the prince can save Anping Zong a way out."
