Policy
The Governor's Residence of Star Province.
From Gu Jinlai, people have stood on the large map, looking at the nine cities that have been marked and occupied at this moment.
With the six cities of Lingxiao, the four cities of the State Lord's Mansion, the four cities of Longque Mountain Villa, and the three cities of Xingtian Alliance Gu Jinlai taken over by Gu Jinlai, seventeen out of the twenty-six cities in Star Province are now under Gu Jinlai's control.
The remaining nine cities were occupied by the Yellow Springs Sect, the Cold Moon Sect, and the Yellow Heaven Sect, respectively.
As for the Purgatory Sect?
With a series of conflicts throughout Gu Jinlai...
Wrong!
Now that Gu Jinlai is the Supreme Elder of the Purgatory Sect, isn't the city he occupies essentially a city occupied by the Purgatory Sect?
"Ancestor, a new batch of stubborn and unrepentant people who want to incite the uninformed masses to rebel have been sent here. Also sent here are the most heinous criminals from various cities. Please take a look, Ancestor."
Gu Chaoyang stood behind Gu Jinlai and said.
Gu Jinlai nodded, but did not act immediately. "Have Lord Xin and Lu Zhanfeng returned from the Yellow Heaven Sect and Cold Moon Sect?"
"Not yet, but it should be soon."
Ancient Chaoyang Road.
"I hope Yellow Heaven Sect and Cold Moon Sect can make the right choice."
This Gu Jinlai.
He sent Xin Tianqi and Lu Zhanfeng to the two places to force both sides to withdraw.
As for why the mission was to the Yellow Heaven Sect and Cold Moon Sect...
Firstly, Yellow Heaven Sect and Cold Moon Sect are bordering Jiangzhou to some extent. If they were to take forceful action and push too far, it might lead to them joining forces with Longque Manor.
On the other hand...
Yellow Heaven Sect faces the threat of Crocodile Dragon Swamp, while Cold Moon Sect is burdened by two major events: the northward advance of Demonic Beasts from Muzhou and the Divine Sword Tournament.
They are most likely to back down.
Only the Yellow Springs Sect remains...
Firstly, they were already at odds with the Purgatory Sect and were enemies of each other. Secondly, they and Dragon Sparrow Manor were located in the east and west of each other, and the two major sects belonged to the immortal and demonic paths respectively, so the possibility of them uniting was low.
Therefore, taking action against the Yellow Spring Sect after the situation in Star Province stabilizes is a good way to make an example of them, deterring any restless forces within Star Province and preventing neighboring forces from acting rashly.
Of course, this is just Star Province's action strategy for the foreseeable future.
Or rather, this is the stance that Star Province must adopt.
In fact...
He knew that before the new Heavenly Sword Missile was fully connected to the spirit, he could not replicate his achievements of killing two Nascent Primordial Spirit True Lord and four Spirit Transformation Grand Cultivators Lingxiao City.
Therefore, if he really chooses to go to war with the Yellow Spring Sect before the crisis at Dragon Sparrow Manor is resolved, he will most likely face the consequences of being attacked from both sides. Once his outward strength is exposed and his inner weakness is exposed, several Primordial Spirit True Lord will rush at him, and his fate will probably be like that of the Demon Ape Commander in the Cloud Rising Mountains, passively being beaten without any power to resist, and having to hide here and there.
At this moment, hundreds of people had gathered in the drill ground outside the governor's mansion.
Most of these people were originally quite imposing, and some were even powerful experts in the Gang Condensing and Core Forming Realm who dominated the county town.
At this moment, everyone's face was filled with panic, not knowing what kind of future awaited them.
Seeing Gu Jinlai the present, the fear in these people's hearts rose to the extreme, and they all trembled with fear.
"Spare me, Lord Gu, spare me!"
"Lord Gu, is there a mistake? I am innocent."
"As a martial artist who has reached the Core Forming, I have indeed used some means to obtain Cultivation Resources over the years, but this is the way of everyone in the world. I implore the Lord of the Ancient State to consider the difficulties I have faced in my cultivation and give me a chance to atone for my sins."
Some of the bolder people shouted.
They are the third batch of people identified from various cities and counties, and they know very well what awaits them next.
"Shut up!"
Gu Chifeng, who was maintaining order, let out a low roar.
A fierce and malevolent aura, like that of a great Demonic Beasts, erupted forth, intertwining with the auras of the other demon god's guards, causing everyone present to fall silent in fear.
Gu Jinlai immediately stepped forward and joined the first queue.
His gaze swept over the group of people one by one.
"Strict investigation! Strict investigation! Thorough investigation!"
He would issue a command every few seconds he spent on a person.
Those with Light Red Name will undergo a rigorous re-examination. Depending on their crimes, they may be given a chance to redeem themselves, or they may be sentenced to death directly, but he will not carry out the execution personally.
Re-examined...
They are often referred to as "Yellow Name".
These people have made mistakes, but their crimes do not warrant death.
However, if their actions are too egregious, they will still face death, though the investigation will be less stringent than for those with Light Red Name.
The remaining individuals will be released from their White Name. If they are willing to serve the state lord's government, they will be recruited after undergoing a series of assessments.
As for Red Name...
"Laugh!"
A middle-aged man with a beaming smile was beheaded by Gu Jinlai with a single sword strike.
His smile froze instantly.
The splattering blood intensified the panic among those around them.
As one of them's expressions changed, he immediately leaped to his feet.
But as soon as he made a move, Gu Chifeng, who was watching from the sidelines, pounced forward.
He Core Forming Formation stage and had already suffered severe injuries before being captured alive. In a single exchange, he was killed by Gu Chifeng with a single punch.
Gu Jinlai at him; his Light Red Name.
The level of rigorous review.
It is estimated that his actions were extremely vicious, and he knew he was going to die, so he risked his life in a desperate attempt.
The fall of this master of the Core Forming realm instilled even greater fear in the crowd, and no one else dared to move.
These people Gu Jinlai.
Of the 106 people, he killed nine directly and released four on the spot.
After all, this is the third batch, and the probability of getting Red Name is far lower than that of the twenty-six and nineteen people in the previous two batches.
After some time, the trial of these people was completed, and Gu Jinlai's gaze turned to Xin Tianqi, who had been standing aside for several minutes.
"Xin Xingzhu".
"Lord of the State."
Xin Tianqi had heard of the trials Gu Jinlai, but this was the first time he had ever witnessed one, which made him quite curious.
"Laws often have loopholes, after all, those who enforce them are human beings, and human beings cannot avoid human relationships. Therefore, I need to personally intervene in those who have a terrible reputation and are utterly wicked."
Gu Jinlai said, "If I am able to do so in the future, I will personally review the case of anyone sentenced to death."
He did this firstly to prevent White Name from being wrongly accused.
Secondly...
Naturally, this is for the purpose of clearing away the light.
Only with sufficient clarity can he continue to grow stronger, thereby more firmly maintaining the status of Lingxiao City, promoting the Lingxiao City system to the surrounding areas, and incorporating other major states, and even the entire Great Qian, into the Star Province system of order, so that the world may be at peace, and all living beings may live in order and in a peaceful and prosperous life.
"This is a huge undertaking."
Xin Tian abandoned the Dao.
This world is different from Blue Star; the execution rate is extremely high.
In Star Province alone, thousands of people are sentenced to death each year.
Gu Jinlai, it has always required a considerable amount of effort for someone to personally take charge of this matter.
"I have faith in the legal system of Lingxiao City."
Gu Jinlai been said that "those who have been investigated are unlikely to be wrongly accused. My existence is merely a final deterrent and insurance, or rather, a sword hanging over the heads of law enforcement officers."
As he spoke, he smiled and said, "Moreover, my review efficiency is very fast. I have cultivated the Qian Tian purple qi Jue and have the ability to observe qi. I can roughly judge a person's goodness or evil by the 'qi' on their body. As you just saw, I only took the time it takes to drink a cup of tea to review hundreds of people."
"The Qi Observation Technique of the Qian Tian purple qi Jue?"
Xin Tianqi was somewhat alarmed.
Gu Jinlai...
He actually mastered the Heavenly purple qi Technique!?
It should be noted that the art of observing qi is extremely difficult to master and requires a certain talent.
Yes, talent.
This talent refers not only to their inherent abilities but also to the position they occupy.
This is a Cultivation Method is truly difficult for those who don't know it, but easy for those who do.
Talented people can master the basics after studying for a while.
Those without talent may spend their entire lives studying but never find the right approach.
Moreover, this path is extremely difficult. After entering the field, achieving minor success, major success, or even perfection requires countless years of hard work.
Currently, Gu Jinlai have mastered this Cultivation Method, enabling them to read faces and gauge auras...
This in itself implies something.
For a moment, Xin Tianqi's gaze toward Gu Jinlai was noticeably different.
"What did Yellow Heaven Sect say?"
This Gu Jinlai.
"Yellow Heaven Sect's situation is more difficult than we imagined."
Xin Tianqi smiled and said, "The Crocodile Dragon King that occupies the Milky Way is not an ordinary Demonic Beasts king, but a top-tier existence with a special bloodline. It has given birth to the innate divine Divine Ability, rain and thunder. It can summon thunder and lightning in rainy weather to kill its opponents. This is a deadly threat to Primordial Spirit True Lord. Therefore, Yellow Heaven Sect is on high alert and has placed three Nascent Primordial Spirit True Lord at Crocodile Dragon Swamp. They simply cannot spare enough power to deal with us. After I personally visited and persuaded them, they plan to give up the three northern cities and withdraw from the Star Province competition."
"Good."
Gu Jinlai nodded. "Master Xin, you've worked hard."
"It's what I should do."
Xin Tianqi said, "They will retreat within a month. After a month, the governor will send people to take over the three cities."
"One month..."
It took a while.
It's estimated that by then, these three cities will be almost completely emptied out.
However, compared to the countless deaths and injuries caused by starting a war, the loss of some money and materials is nothing.
In his heart, the people of Star Province were more important than things.
"Lord of Guzhou..."
Xin Tianqi recalled the sweeping efforts made in the Gu Jinlai half month to consolidate the order of the seventeen cities of Star Province and the mobilization of a large army to converge on Longque Manor. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Are you planning to stabilize the situation in Star Province as soon as possible and then take revenge on Longque Manor?"
"I have this idea, but the specifics will depend on the circumstances."
This Gu Jinlai.
"Then I hope the governor will act with caution."
Xin Tianqi said in a deep voice, "I went to Dragon Sparrow Manor back then and even had a brief exchange with them. The reason that battle ended without a clear outcome was due to two points... First, I didn't go there with the intention of starting a war with Dragon Sparrow Manor, and second..."
He paused slightly, then said, "I sensed the aura of Huo Yuqing, the renowned 'Sparrow Sword Immortal' from Dragon Sparrow Manor a hundred years ago."
