Chapter 81

Therefore, Hua Xi gave up this plan!

Instead, she used the manpower saved to slaughter nearly half of the officials in the court.

It could be considered a fierce vent of anger!

"How do you think this Empress should handle this matter?"

Hearing the death toll.

Wu Zetian's willow eyebrows knitted subconsciously.

But in an instant, they relaxed again.

As an emperor.

She naturally wouldn't be affected because of casualties among her subordinates.

Or rather.

Dead subordinates were far less important to her than losing face this time!

"This matter is entirely up to Your Majesty's decision!"

"However, this old minister still wants to remind Your Majesty."

"The Green Dragon Society's power is probably not smaller than our Great Tang Imperial Dynasty!"

Yuan Tiangang cupped his hands.

Speaking to the end.

Both his tone and eyes became extremely heavy.

"Oh? How so?"

Wu Zetian raised her eyebrows.

She looked at him with no joy or sorrow.

"Your Majesty should know the news about Shaolin, right?"

"That is to say, while the Green Dragon Society was targeting our Great Tang, they also spared quite a few troops to destroy Shaolin!"

"And whether this is all the Green Dragon Society's numbers is also unknown."

"From this, it can be foreseen how huge the Green Dragon Society is!"

"Most importantly, there were three Land Immortal Realm and two Heaven-Human Realm experts in Shaolin!"

"According to this old minister's deduction, I'm afraid the strength of Huineng and Shenxiu is probably only stronger than this old minister, not weaker!"

"And such a group of combat power was directly pushed over when facing the Green Dragon Society."

"So much so that they had to sacrifice three Land Immortal Realm experts to let Huineng and Shenxiu escape."

"Just this point is enough to imagine how exaggerated the troops sent by the Green Dragon Society were!"

Yuan Tiangang straightened his expression.

His eyes were somewhat sighing.

Although he didn't want to get involved in making decisions.

But the necessary analysis was not missed.

Seeming to be afraid that Wu Zetian would make some hot-headed decision in a fit of anger.

"According to the National Teacher, then I should just let it go?"

Wu Zetian narrowed her eyes, her tone indifferent.

Between the lines, it was full of dissatisfaction.

Concerning her own dignity and face.

She didn't want to just let it go!

"This matter is entirely up to Your Majesty's decision!"

"This old minister is just analyzing the situation I saw truthfully for Your Majesty's reference."

"There is no intention of overstepping at all."

Almost instantly.

Yuan Tiangang replied without thinking.

That appearance.

Was afraid that if he replied slowly, this old pot would be carried on his own back.

"You guy..."

Seeing through his thoughts at a glance.

Wu Zetian shook her head, unable to laugh or cry.

Then she changed the subject and said.

"Let this matter go for now."

"Wait for the news from the Ageless Spring Valley, then prescribe the right medicine according to the situation."

Although the cause of this matter was originally her own.

But as an emperor, and the only empress of the Nine Provinces.

She naturally wouldn't admit she was wrong!

It's just that this matter concerns immortality.

When the news from the Ageless Spring Valley is not clear.

She didn't want to completely tear her face with the Green Dragon Society yet.

After all.

If by any chance the Ageless Spring Valley didn't get the ideal harvest.

Immortality would depend on the Green Dragon Society!

Most importantly.

If she were to show a posture of fighting to the death with the Green Dragon Society now.

Then the previous speculation would become fact!

Presumably.

Whether it is to destroy Great Tang.

Or to gain the favor of the Green Dragon Society by extending a helping hand.

In order to obtain the opportunity to trade for the immortality technique.

Great Qin and Great Yuan would not remain indifferent!

Even.

Not just them.

Even other dynasties and major top-tier forces.

Might take this opportunity to curry favor with the Green Dragon Society!

Even if doing so makes it difficult for them to have a chance to trade for the immortality technique.

But as long as there is this probability.

No matter the size, who can refuse?

That is immortality!!!

Yuan Tiangang was silent.

He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.

Although he didn't want to carry the pot.

But in his heart, he really didn't want to completely tear his face with the Green Dragon Society now!

Even if the Green Dragon Society killed most of the Unofficial People he had cultivated with all his heart.

Of course.

This was only because the timing was wrong.

So he could only make the most rational choice.

If there is a chance to retaliate in the future.

He would definitely not be humble!!

"By the way, since the Unofficial People suffered heavy casualties, you must reorganize them as soon as possible!"

"Lest there be no one to use when the time comes!"

"In addition, you can also make a trip to the Ageless Spring Valley."

"Lest any mistakes occur!"

Seeming to think of something.

Wu Zetian spoke directly.

Hearing this.

Yuan Tiangang had no ripples on his face.

He nodded and left.

Great Qin, Xianyang Palace.

"So they really took action?"

"It's just that this force is truly surprising to me!"

Listening to the news reported by Zhang Han.

Ying Zheng smiled as expected.

It's just that speaking to the end.

A trace of brilliance flashed in his eyes.

Even though he had long anticipated the Green Dragon Society's counterattack against Great Tang.

But he still didn't expect.

That the Green Dragon Society could spare manpower to destroy Shaolin while targeting Great Tang!

Especially since Shaolin had two existences whose cultivation was at least at the Heaven-Human middle-to-late stage.

Most importantly.

Fighting on two fronts, and actually winning both!

And winning so cleanly!

This was truly somewhat beyond his expectations!

Of course.

If it were just this.

He wouldn't have reacted so strongly.

After all.

The high-level combat power previously shown by the Green Dragon Society.

Could also achieve the current situation!

Even, could do better!

What truly made him somewhat suspicious was.

In this news.

There was no sign of the Green Dragon Society's high-level members!

That is to say.

In the situation where not a single one of the seven Great Dragon Heads appeared.

The Green Dragon Society fought on two fronts, and both were pushes!

Just this point.

It would be difficult not to make him think more!

"Sigh~"

"I was still somewhat miscalculated."

"If I had known that the changes in the Nine Provinces would be so rapid, I shouldn't have hidden them!"

"At the very least, this way, I could have obtained quite a few Heavenly Dao rewards."

"Right now, I just hope the next list comes out quickly."

Ying Zheng shook his head and sighed lightly.

His expression became somewhat emotional.

As early as when the Heavenly Dao Gold List descended.

He had already anticipated that the pattern of the Nine Provinces would undergo huge changes.

The reason he had been hiding his foundation.

Was mainly because he felt everything was under control.

But what he didn't expect was.

In less than three months.

The Green Dragon Society appeared in the eyes of the people like a dark horse.

What's more exaggerated is.

In such a short time.

The other party's power not only appeared increasingly powerful.

Even their schemes seemed not small.

By the time he reacted.

It was already a bit late.

Even if he called those old guys out.

It is estimated that it wouldn't be their turn!

Perhaps.

The only thing that comforted him was.

At the very least, a few people from Great Qin made the list.

So he didn't end up with no rewards at all.

Otherwise.

His mood would definitely be dozens or hundreds of times worse than it is now!

And right now.

What he was looking forward to most.

Was the refresh of the next Heavenly Dao list.

And.

He had already made up his mind!

Once the next list comes out.

He would immediately pull those old guys out to compete for the Heavenly Dao rewards!

Great Yuan, Imperial City.

"Hahaha, that little lady, the Tang Emperor, finally suffered a loss!"

"I'm really looking forward to her expression now!"

"Presumably, it must be very interesting!"

Looking at the news sent back by the secret report.

Temujin couldn't help but laugh out loud.

That appearance without any imperial demeanor.

Shows how happy he was at this moment!

Even the mood that Si Hanfei's failure made him somewhat unhappy.

Vanished in an instant, without a trace.

It was only when his gaze moved down.

And he saw the news that Shaolin was destroyed together.

The laughter stopped abruptly.

As if being stuck in the throat by an invisible big hand.

Making his old face flush red.

After a long while.

He spat out a turbid breath, and sighed with sharp eyes.
