NOVEL NEXT Chapter 306: The State Preceptor's Counterattack_3
However, during this trip to the Galaxy Battlefield, Xu Jin needed to not just improve his strength, he needed to significantly enhance it.
In Xu Jin's mind, the next time he returned from the Galaxy Battlefield to reality, it would be the time to execute the foolish Emperor!
Without executing this foolish Emperor, the vexation in his heart would not ease.
His mind would not be clear.
And to go to the Galaxy Battlefield, one had first to travel all the way to Galaxy Pass, and then to the Dachen Battle Zone, which would take about three or four days.
Incidentally, Xu Jin wanted to see Ning Yuchan.
It had been so long.
He missed her a bit!
*****
In the Pill Dawn Palace of the Da Chen National Taoist School.
Elder Peng was looking at the State Preceptor, Cheng Yuexiao, who was sitting silently by the window in the Pill Dawn Palace, with an exceedingly anxious expression.
Inside the Pill Dawn Palace, the Academician, an Emblem Grandmaster, and Kou Jing, a Seventh Tier Expert, had been waiting for a day already.
They declared that they would not leave without seeing the State Preceptor!
However, since returning from the Imperial Palace, State Preceptor Cheng Yuexiao had been sitting there, remaining motionless for a full day and night!
Elder Peng knew that during such moments, the State Preceptor was likely grappling with a moral dilemma and dared not disturb him; he merely replaced his tea with a fresh cup.
But just as Elder Peng was replacing the tea, State Preceptor Cheng Yuexiao suddenly spoke, "Elder Peng, why do you think His Majesty is so vicious?
Tens of thousands of living civilians, he just decided to sacrifice them in blood.
Does he not realize that those people are all living subjects?"
"It's simple because you, Palace Master, are the State Preceptor of the Dachen citizens, and you care about the lives of the people! But this foolish Emperor views the people of Dachen as mere weeds; he only considers himself!
The people of Dachen have only you, the State Preceptor, but in that foolish Emperor's eyes, he seems to think he has countless Dachen citizens to waste, so it doesn't matter." Elder Peng said.
After speaking, Elder Peng added, "State Preceptor, you're just too upright. If it were the era when you occupied the Lingji Star Hall, then such a foolish Emperor would have been deposed long ago!
The Lingji Star Lord has always said, 'The world belongs to the people of the world!
Dachen belongs to the citizens of Dachen!
Not to any one person!'"
Cheng Yuexiao nodded heavily, "That's right, Dachen belongs to the citizens of Dachen! Elder Peng, I know what I need to do now!"
Upon hearing this, Elder Peng's eyes brightened, "State Preceptor, have you decided to undertake the matter of deposition?"
"He has invited the Tianyang Star Lord as an ally, so deposing him temporarily is not possible! However, I can curtail his power, and I can certainly dash the foolish Emperor's dreams!"
"What do you mean, State Preceptor?"
"Just now, I received a Starlight Transmission from the Galaxy Grand Marshal. He said that in three days, there will be a meeting at the Galaxy Commander Mansion to discuss the matter of the Emperor of Dachen resuming the title of Emperor and to prepare myself in advance.
What do you think I will prepare for!" Cheng Yuexiao said with a cold smile.
Elder Peng paused, and Cheng Yuexiao then stood up, "Since this foolish Emperor accuses me of abusing power, of having ambitions of independence, then let me show him an abuse of power!
He shouldn't assume that Cheng Yuexiao is easy to handle!
Since he thinks of me that way, then let me act that way!"
Having made his decision, Cheng Yuexiao suddenly let out a long sigh and felt the resentment in his heart dissipate, his mind also forming a sequence of plans.
In the past, he had restrained himself.
Now, it was time to free himself!
Suddenly, Cheng Yuexiao looked up and saw the Academician Kou Jing standing outside the hall and then turned to Elder Peng.
"What's this about?"
A few moments later, Cheng Yuexiao managed a wry smile.
He hadn't expected that Xu Jin's death would elicit such a strong reaction from Kou Jing.
Inside the Star-picking Order, there were nearly a thousand Starlight Transmissions related to the news of Xu Jin's death!
Instantly, Cheng Yuexiao felt a headache coming on.
This was a mess he didn't want to clean up!
