Upon hearing Qin Mingshu's pleas for mercy...
The courtiers nearby finally snapped out of their shock!
Some people recalled the question they had just asked Ye Li.
Does the survival of the Longwind Divine Dynasty depend on the whims of a mere Palace Heir?!
Now it seems that it really is true!!
Now that even the Former Emperor True Lord has perished, what do these people have left to resist Ye Li?!
"Palace Heir, spare my life!"
"We are willing to surrender! We will submit to the Palace Heir's arrangements in all matters concerning the Imperial Court!"
One of the court officials was the first to kneel down.
Immediately afterwards, the sound of knees hitting the ground echoed from nearby!
The high-ranking civil and military officials who had been requesting imperial orders from high above and clamoring to tear Ye Li to pieces suddenly knelt down in the blink of an eye!
Ye Li looked at them and suddenly chuckled softly:
"You know perfectly well that begging for mercy now is pointless, so you might as well say something more befitting your status."
"..."
Qin Mingshu's body suddenly stiffened.
Before she could say anything more...
Ye Li had already raised his right hand and lightly snapped his fingers.
Buzz!
A figure clad in a black and gold dragon robe slowly emerged from behind him!
He had a heroic face and deep-set eyes.
The ancient Daoist aura surrounding him was still so profound that it made it difficult for the cultivators present to breathe!
Longwind Divine Dynasty Emperor!!
"His Majesty?!"
A courtier subconsciously raised his head, a look of disbelief just appearing on his face, when he saw that familiar figure in dragon robes respectfully bowing to Ye Li:
"I await your command, sir."
"...!!"
The surroundings fell into a deathly silence!
The glimmer of hope that had just appeared on everyone's faces was shattered by those words!
Can they really even capture True Lord?!
Looking at that face that usually looked down on everyone, Qin Mingshu felt a chill run through her body and her limbs went weak!
Their last and greatest support has now become playthings in Ye Li's hands!
This terrifying demon!!
Ye Li casually gave the order:
"First, we need to verify the facts regarding these people."
"Damn it, leave none of them alive."
"I will obey the Imperial Edict of my Lord!"
Longwind Divine Dynasty Emperor nodded heavily.
Ye Li withdrew his gaze with satisfaction and turned to leave.
"No, wait!!"
Qin Mingshu cried out in alarm, hurriedly crawling forward on her knees and grabbing his leg tightly, refusing to let go!
Because of the vigorous movements, her already ample and large breasts swayed wildly under her close-fitting court dress, making them appear even more alluring and tempting.
She knew it Great Clarity!
Once Ye Li leaves and hands this place over to this absolutely loyal True Lord's soul, she will have no chance to plead for mercy!
"I can help you handle matters concerning the Imperial Court!"
"I know everything about those officials, their backgrounds, and their industries in various places! Palace Heir Ye, please reconsider!!"
Bang!!
Ye Li lifted his leg and jerked.
Qin Mingshu was sent flying, crashing heavily into the rubble some distance away, blood immediately spilling from the corner of her mouth!
"I told you, I have no interest in a sow like you."
Before she could get back to her feet...
The figure in the Green Robe straightened his clothes and vanished in a flash of golden light!
"Palace Heir Ye!!"
The terrified cries went unanswered.
Qin Mingshu struggled to raise her head, only to see that the figure in the black and gold dragon robe, exuding Killing Intent, slowly approaching her!
No! No!!
Outside the Capital City.
Ye Li landed again on a still intact hillside.
A series of shrill screams, mixed with pleas for mercy and curses, quickly faded under a powerful pressure.
A beam of blue light then landed in front of him.
She is the Supreme Clarity Palace Master.
She glanced into the distance, then looked at Ye Li nearby, and asked with a somewhat complicated expression:
"Your Divine Ability... you can even take Dao Source True Lord's soul for your own use?"
Legend has it that Dao Source True Lord's Divine Soul transcends the Laws, allowing him to survive countless tribulations without being destroyed, and to traverse the sea of lightning as if it were a fleeting glimpse.
The reason why the Longwind Former Emperor was able to easily seize a body that had reached the Fortune-Mastery Realm was mostly due to this power.
There shouldn't be any Soul Dao techniques that could be effective against a soul of this level.
But now, the impossible has happened!!
"Um."
Ye Li nodded slightly.
The Supreme Clarity Palace Master remained silent for a long time before finally letting out a soft sigh:
"I have truly broadened my horizons today. You are no ordinary person; you would definitely be considered a peerless genius even in the Outer World."
Killing True Lord across borders is already astonishing enough.
Now we can directly use the methods the other party used during their lifetime!
With this shift in power, who would dare to easily lay a hand on this kid in the future?!
"These are minor matters."
Ye Li seemed unconcerned and instead said:
"I still have many things to do, and I need your help, Palace Master."
"You say."
The Supreme Clarity Palace Master looked up at him and smiled:
"I will definitely help you if it's within my ability."
Ye Li flipped his hand and took out several Jade Slips, handing over the numerous pieces of evidence he had gleaned from the memories of various souls:
"Then you should first deal with the participants on the list, and then take over the national treasury and royal family's assets."
"The Imperial Court's previous orders to various regions must also be withdrawn as soon as possible, lest anyone continue to act on imperial orders before the news spreads."
That brings us to this.
He then looked at Shen Lingyi and the others who had just arrived and continued to give instructions:
"You are responsible for registering the accounts and case files from various locations."
"Those who need to be escorted should have their cultivation sealed first, and then be dealt with after verification."
"Those conscripted laborers and their families restricted by the royal family were all checked one by one; those who should be released were released, and those who should be transferred were transferred."
Shen Lingyi quickly took out the Jade Slip and wrote it down one by one.
Ye Li added in conclusion:
"If any high-level cultivators refuse to cooperate, just tell me directly."
"I'll handle it."
"I will obey the Palace Heir's Imperial Edict!"
The Manager in charge bowed and accepted the order.
The fear they felt when facing the True Lord had not completely subsided, but upon hearing these familiar arrangements, they quickly realized what they should do!
Shen Lingyi quickly assigned the tasks to others.
Some went to contact their colleagues who remained in the capital, some prepared to receive the registers, and some took out the prefectural and county maps that had been previously compiled to check the destinations of the various escorts and handovers.
"..."
The Supreme Clarity Palace Master stood to the side, taking in all of this, and couldn't help but twitch slightly at the corner of his mouth.
Longwind True Lord has just died.
These people have actually started discussing which warehouse to take over first and which government office to seal off first?!
That practiced stance...
It seems they've done quite a few of these things in the Cold Sea Continent and Green Luo Continent before!
The problem is, it's one thing if it's Cold Sea Continent, but given the style of [Zi Yue Valley] in the Green Luo Continent, are they really just letting this kid run wild?
Never mind...
The Supreme Clarity Palace Master shook her head; further thought was useless. She then put away the Jade Slip and nodded in agreement.
"I understand. I'll take care of these things."
As she spoke, she glanced again at the lingering phenomenon of the True Lord high in the sky, her tone becoming more solemn:
"However, news of this battle will likely spread throughout the Seven Continents in no time."
"At that time, everyone will know that it was you who beheaded the True Lord Longwind Divine Dynasty."
Ye Li chuckled softly upon hearing this:
"Then I'd better speed things up."
The Supreme Clarity Palace Master twitched slightly and turned to look at him:
"What, is there something urgent?"
I guess so.
Ye Li looked in the direction of the Green Luo Continent and casually said:
"The Zi Yue Valley in the Green Luo Continent is still waiting for me to go there and give them an explanation."
Upon hearing this, the Supreme Clarity Palace Master was slightly taken aback, then chuckled with amusement.
"I see.
"I've also disliked them for a long time, but they're always quick to change their minds, so you really need to speed things up."
