He had never expected the so-called Weapons Compendium to contain firearms...
AKs, M4s, SVDs, AWMs-it had them all.
Even more frightening, it had missiles and the like, too...
But could those missiles actually harm gods?
They should still work on gods below the rank of First-Level God!
At that thought, he couldn't help smiling.
Tang San had hidden weapons; he had firearms.
You have Guanyin's Tears; I have Cobalt Bullets...
Just as the two were about to reach the meeting room, the ministers' clamorous voices drifted out...
The meeting room.
"Who do you think Chen Jue will choose?"
A subtle tension and anticipation hung in the air.
"My guess is one of the Zhu Family's two sisters."
Someone murmured, a hint of speculation in his tone.
"Hmph, even women can become emperors these days?"
Another scoffed, his voice dripping with contempt.
"Once Chen Jue leaves, we'll strip that woman of her power."
"Do you have a death wish? How strong is Chen Jue? How strong are you?"
Someone warned him, his voice full of caution.
"Ah, true. I'm just running my mouth! But it still pisses me off!"
The man sighed, his voice betraying helplessness and resentment.
After all, he was a corrupt official who made his money by abusing his authority for personal gain.
The Old Emperor had turned a blind eye before, but with someone new in charge, he might no longer be able to exploit his position as he once had!
That was what irked him most.
"An official like me might as well die!"
"Then die!"
Before those words had faded, a fierce streak of sword light shot through the air like lightning splitting the sky, slicing through it in an instant.
Under everyone's horrified gaze, the man's head was mercilessly severed from his body.
