Chapter 1636

Fuyama Kazusa: "By the way, Old Zhao's head was nearly chopped off—won't the Shi Guan record that?"

Fuyama Kazusa: "What about Zhao Guangyi's reputation back then?"

Long Er: "Which Shi Guan would dare write that? Don't they want to die with their nine clans?"

Dokushima Sae: "True. Shi Guan are still human—who'd dare write that recklessly?"

Zhao Kuangyin: "Exactly. Even if such a thing truly happened, palace maids and Eunuchs wouldn't dare speak of it, and the Shi Guan wouldn't dare record it. Isn't history only left with vague accounts like 'the axe sound and candle shadow'?"

Zhao Guangyi: "Correct. Who dares say otherwise? Do they think my blade isn't sharp?"

Fuyama Kazusa: "Isn't it said that the Great Song governs the realm together with the scholar-officials, and won't easily kill scholars?"

Zhang Taixuan: "No, that's just a slogan—used solely to stabilize Jiangshan and make the scholar-officials willingly serve. Once scholars dare shake Jiangshan's foundation, that phrase is worthless. The Great Song even had cases of punishment for speech—you can look up the Wutai Poetry Case."

Zhu Yuanzhang: "The Daojun speaks truly. In any dynasty, anyone who dares shake the ruler's foundation deserves death—no Iron Writs of Merit or other promises can save them. The scholar-officials are too shrewd to make such a mistake; at most, they'll show off their scholarly pride by sniping at the Great Song imperial family."

Zhu Yuanzhang: "If it comes to real action, who dares step forward?"

Zhao Guangyi: "You're right, Emperor of the future. Scholars—just a bunch of spineless cowards."

Su Xiao: "Big Brother Taixuan, this Zhao Guangyi is so arrogant. What should we do? If he gains immortality, it'll be disastrous."

Zhao Kuangyin: "True."

Zhang Taixuan: "So what do you suggest? Vote to punish him."

【Ding, Zhang Taixuan has initiated a vote—everyone, please voice your opinions.】

Su Xiao: "Huh? Since Big Brother Taixuan became administrator, this voting function has never been used before. The God of Driving really has clout."

Zhao Guangyi: "What are you planning? I'm also a member of the chat group—I deserve the members' benefits too."

Xiao Mai: "What are the chat group members' benefits?"

Xiao Yan: "Communication across the myriad worlds?"

Nan Kotori: "As for the rest, isn't it all just mutual help? Now that no one wants to help you, it's perfectly reasonable."

Bai Zhi: "Exactly. Everyone hates you too much—conspirator, failure, troublemaker. I've never met anyone as detestable as you."

Xiong Ba: "If you'd just softened your tone and offered something meaningful, no one would be this disgusted. But—he stood his ground. Old Zhao, your family's upbringing must be excellent—everyone's got backbone."

Zhao Kuangyin: "Don't joke. This isn't backbone—it's brain damage."

Zhao Guangyi: "Offer something meaningful?"

Su Xiao: "You don't need to think about it anymore. We're all immortals now—what can you possibly offer? If you'd apologized, you could've sent some fine wine or gold, and we'd happily accept it and let it go. But now? Even if you offered Nine-Turn Jin Dan, we'd have no interest."

Di Yun: "Yes, we lack nothing."

【Ding, voting ended. All members except Zhao Guangyi voted in favor of punishing member Zhao Guangyi.】

Su Xiao: "Oh? Even the new members voted to punish Zhao Guangyi? His popularity is truly at rock bottom."

Long Er: "His arrogant attitude was just disgusting."

【Ding, Zhao Guangyi has been muted for 10,000 years.】

【Ding, Zhao Guangyi's memories have been sealed. Should members help unseal them?】

Su Xiao: "Big Brother Taixuan didn't kill him?"

Zhang Taixuan: "Forget it. Since he's a group member, there's no need to go this far. Besides, if I kill Zhao Guangyi today, tomorrow I might kill someone else. Then everyone in the group will live in fear."

Xiao Mai: "That's true. Then no one needs to worry about their own safety."

Zhao Kuangyin: "Daojun's method is excellent—fair and just. But Zhao Guangyi has lost his memories; in his world, history will still follow its old path, and tragedy will replay."

Zhu Yuanzhang: "That shouldn't be a problem. The Daojun can project into the myriad worlds—surely he can open a passage to that world."

【Ding, the Northern Song world has applied to become a subordinate world of Tai Xuan Realm. Approve?】

Dalaotian.

Zhang Taixuan had just finished dealing with Zhao Guangyi when he received the world's application.

"This world is awfully eager."

Zhang Taixuan smiled lightly and approved the request.

Though it was only a small thousand-world, insignificant.

But who would ever complain about having too many subordinate worlds?

Chat Group.

Zhang Taixuan: "No need to use the supernatural power of projecting into the myriad worlds. Just now, that world applied to become a subordinate world of Tai Xuan Realm. Old Zhao, if you want to govern it, I can give it to you."

Su Xiao: "By the way, Big Brother Taixuan, can you let Sister Huang and the others manage worlds?"

Huang Rong: "Spare us. That's thousands of worlds—it's a nightmare."

Wan Wan: "Yes, even with avatar bodies, I don't want to manage thousands of worlds. Better to slack off and fish."

Xiao Yan: "Wait a minute. Wan Wan, you're the Holy Maiden of the Demon Sect—how did you turn into a lazy fish too?"

Wan Wan: "Because laziness is contagious! Like Su Xiao."

Su Xiao: "Thanks, I'm not taking that blame!"

Yao Yue: "Sitting at home, and trouble falls from the sky. Wan Wan is just being naturally cute—don't blame Su Xiao."

Gongshui Sanye: "You two sisters still love to clash with each other!"

Zhao Kuangyin: "Then thank you, Daojun."

Zhang Taixuan: "Go. That small thousand-world will soon rise to a top-tier middle thousand-world. I grant you authority over its secular imperial power for one hundred yuanhui. But remember—don't damage the world's environment or oppress the people!"

Zhao Kuangyin: "Daojun, you overstate it—I know this well."

Su Xiao: "Heh, Old Zhao doesn't have the guts to cause trouble in a Tai Xuan Realm subordinate world."

Zhu Yuanzhang: "True. What about the newcomers? Only two have appeared—where are the other two?"

Xiao Mai: "Did they get scared? After all, two appeared, and one got sealed—this outcome is terrifying enough."
