You Cannot Afford To Offend My Woman

Chapter 1279 (This Idea Is No Different from Seeking Death)

”Letʼs rest here tonight,” Ye Juetian said, feeling that with the Guardian around, it should be safe. Having a powerful ally was quite reassuring.

The group nodded. They still had lingering fear, and looking at the Guardian in black beside them, they felt a bit more secure in this dimension.

However, within the Voidless Empire, they had just experienced life and death.

Unaware of this, Ye Hua, outside the palace, was listening to Kai Yunʼs report. After all, Kai Yun was responsible for the cityʼs security.

”Are you saying those nobles from the Nine Provinces and Five Seas are bullying people?” Ye Hua asked casually as Donghuang Baizhi peeled grapes for him.

Kai Yun respectfully said, ”Although it doesnʼt reach the level of bullying, among those people, there is a certain disdain for the original residents. Coupled with the disparity in strength, itʼs more pronounced. Subordinates feel that if such a situation persists, it might...”

”These people are given face because of Meng Yao, so I didnʼt pursue it further. But they are pushing their luck! Itʼs truly annoying!” Ye Hua said coldly, detesting those who thought too highly of themselves.

It had only been a day since they arrived, and they were already using their status to oppress others. They seemed oblivious to the fact that someone else was in charge here. What was their identity?

To put it bluntly, they were just refugees.

”Some nobles from the Nine Provinces and Five Seas are even buying high-end residences without following arrangements.”

Ye Hua was taken aback. ”Thereʼs really nothing we can do about that. Money can indeed make people do whatever they want.”

Donghuang Baizhi rolled her eyes.

”Ye Hua, you need to take this matter seriously. If it continues like this, the original residents will definitely be resentful,” Donghuang Baizhi reminded.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Hua said indifferently, ”Kai Yun, lead some people to suppress them. Arrest those who donʼt obey and execute them to set an example. They will think twice before acting recklessly again.”

Donghuang Baizhi wanted to poke Ye Huaʼs forehead, but with Kai Yun present, she refrained.

”Ye Hua, using murder to suppress is not the best choice,” Donghuang Baizhi said.

Ye Hua didnʼt think much of it. ”I think itʼs good. After killing some who opposed me last time, they all behaved themselves.”

”Ye Hua, those people were opposing you with ill intentions. Their sins were significant. But these people havenʼt done anything like that. A mild punishment would suffice,” Donghuang Baizhi advised. 𝘳âΝօＢĚṠ

Ye Hua chuckled. ”Baizhi, you are still too young. Just because they havenʼt done it now doesnʼt mean they wonʼt in the future. If we donʼt suppress them early on, they wonʼt appreciate it.”

”What Your Excellency says itʼs not wrong. These people are very arrogant. Sooner or later, they will cause trouble. What Your Excellency is doing is appropriate and fitting,” Kai Yun respectfully said.

Ignoring Donghuang Baizhiʼs opinion, Ye Hua said to Kai Yun, ”Go and handle it. Make it more prominent, let them know that Iʼm not easy to mess with. On my territory, they must obey. Those who donʼt listen, let them roll!”

”Yes, Your Excellency.” Kai Yun took his leave and went to find Yezizi. There might be some fun later.

Looking at the report Kai Yun handed over, he saw that the arrogant ones were mostly nobles, accounting for at least 10%. The others were relatively obedient.

When Kai Yun left, Donghuang Baizhi sighed and said, ”Ye Hua, there are other ways to solve this.”

Ye Hua casually replied, ”This is the most direct. Kai Yun saves a lot of trouble. You women, long hair but short in the brain department.”

”Hmph! Then donʼt come to bed tonight!”

”Thatʼs up to you.” Ye Hua snorted, angering Donghuang Baizhi, who went to sleep directly.

While Donghuang Baizhi slept, Ye Hua stayed awake, contemplating the morning assembly. It was the first time for a full assembly, so he needed to think about future planning.

No, some people were still undergoing trials, so it couldnʼt be considered a full assembly. Well, he could just say a few words casually tomorrow morning and then go to sleep.

At this moment, in a luxurious inn, a few people sat at a table chatting, surrounded by some powerful individuals.

Among the seated individuals was also Meng Li.

Except for Meng Li, the rest were males, and judging by their arrogant demeanour, it was evident they held significant power in the Nine Provinces and Five Seas.

Meng Yao had contacted others and asked them to come to the Voidless Empire, so besides Meng Yaoʼs group, there were people from other places.

”The place Meng Yao recommended is indeed good. Look at the environment here, itʼs much better than before,” said a man surnamed Liu.

Liuʼs family in Regal Nexus was quite powerful, but he found that this place was better than any city in Regal Nexus.

”I have a suggestion. Letʼs develop this place into our own capital. What do you think?” The one who spoke was named Long Yi. Despite his unimpressive appearance, he was quite greedy. He was also from the Long family. However, with Long Chu gone, he now held the most authority in the Long family by default.

However, Long Yi was just a small elder before, but with everyone else dead, he became the sole member of the Elder Council, so it was natural for him to assume control.

”Lord Long, this idea is not bad. We can establish ourselves as rulers here!” The first to support the proposal was Liu Xia.

After speaking, Liu Xia and Long Yi looked at Meng Li. After all, Meng Liʼs strength was also needed.

”Meng Li, what do you think of our proposal?” Liu Xia asked in a low voice.

Meng Li snapped back, ”What did you just say?”

”Meng Li, I mean, letʼs join forces and take over this city,” Long Yi said casually, as if conquering the Voidless Empire was an easy feat.

”What! You want to take over here!” Meng Liʼs expression changed suddenly. What kind of place was this... the emperorʼs territory, where the emperor had won against the Temple Master in a major battle.

But these guys didnʼt seem to know...

”Yes.” Long Yi said decisively, his eyes showing a hint of bloodthirstiness. This was his first time taking action since becoming the family head, and it was definitely extraordinary.

Meng Li coldly said, ”Are you insane? Do you know where this is? Do you know how the Nine Provinces and Five Seas disappeared? Do you know who defeated the Temple Master?”Liu Xia calmly said, ”Meng Li, we know what youʼre going to say, but those are just rumours. Who knows who defeated whom? Have you personally witnessed it?”

”You guys seem to be insane! Actually thinking about making a move on the Voidless Empire. Let me tell you! It was the emperor here who defeated the Temple Master!” Meng Li said in a stern voice. After finally finding a place to stay, they actually wanted to monopolise it. It was simply outrageous!
