I don't want to do it, but he has a health bar

Chapter 180: The scholars and the imperial court were furious... (Subscribe)
After Lu Xinming and Zhang Jiuyuan killed two hundred people each, their hearts trembled violently and they could hardly control their own magical powers.

Cheng Fengxiao is the same.

Not to mention the scholars behind these literary masters whose strength is not even up to the level of celestial beings.

Compared to the nonchalant killing by the master of astronomical phenomena, there is not even any blood or limbs left after the killing.

Those scholars who have reached the Xuan level of supernatural powers are much more bloody and cruel when killing people.

Of course, those who were slaughtered would not sit and wait to die. Under the butcher knife of Lu Jing and others, even if those scholars who were sentenced to death knew that resistance was useless, they would not sit there and die, as ants still try to survive.

So dozens of people with supernatural powers surrounded and killed the scholars who had surrendered.

Fortunately, Lu Jing has the support of three astronomical-level masters of literature and art, otherwise the two or three hundred scholars who surrendered might not be able to withstand the resistance of so many scholars.

In the fight between the two sides,
Fights between low-level scholars would be much bloodier.

Blood splattered everywhere and limbs were broken off.

The sounds of wailing and cursing rang out one after another.

The three masters of literature and art could not bear to look at the bloody scene and sighed in regret.

By the time the killing was halfway done, the ground above the white clouds was already covered with blood and broken limbs. Even those who were not dead were gasping for breath, as if this would allow them to live a little longer in this world.

It was also at this time that this group of scholars could no longer be killed.

A normal person.

How could a normal, well-educated person remain as calm as an old dog after killing so many people with his own hands?

But Lu Jing's expression remained calm as usual.

He even laughed and said, "You think this is cruel? But do you know that after these people become officials, more people may die than this? Is it cruel to eat children in a year of famine? Is it cruel to have plagues everywhere in a year of floods?"

Very cruel.

But because these scholars and officials can't see it, they can just downplay it and say: "Ten thousand deaths are deaths, one hundred thousand deaths are also deaths, and the only thing we can do is to make the people suffer more."

Lu Jing raised his hand, and the natural laser energy emerged from his fingertips: "How is this different from cannibalism?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Jing raised his hand and waved.

The extremely condensed white flame aurora true qi was immediately thrown away, and then it was broken into tiny white pieces of paper like a piece of broken white ice.

These pieces of paper were wrapped with the domineering sword intent, and they tore through the air lightly with unparalleled sharpness, and scattered like pieces of paper and snowflakes towards the scholars in the distance who had already jumped out of the white clouds or even landed on the ground and ran wildly.

The piece of paper, like a white glow, chased after it effortlessly.

Then it sank into the bodies of those readers.

Then the Suyan Aurora Qi and the Dominant Sword Intention burst out.

Flowers of blood spurted out.

A huge, bloody gap was blown across the entire body in an instant.

The sky and earth were suddenly filled with blood.

The green grassland in the northern desert has become somewhat grim.

With one strike, Lu Jing killed nearly a thousand people.

The most important thing is the nonchalant expression on Lu Jing's face, as if he had just raised his hand to brush off the dust on his body.

Cheng Fengxiao stood in the clouds, dazed.

He looked at Lu Jing, his voice trembling: "I can't tell now whether you have the ambition of a saint or you are a demon who uses the ambition of a saint as a cover to kill people."

Lu Jing didn't even look at the corpses on the ground, and said calmly: "You don't have to think about it. It will take at most twenty years for you to see whether the scene I described will appear or not."

"If that kind of scene doesn't happen in 20 years, you can turn against me and kill me at any time."

Cheng Fengxiao gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!"

After Lu Jing killed these scholars, white clouds descended and he invited these scholars to stay temporarily in Anbei Academy.

As for the corpses here...don't worry about them.

Their death was a notice.

……

Soon, the news that all the scholars who went north to debate and attack Lu Jing died in a foreign land spread from Mobei.

In addition to the reminders of the extinguishing of soul lamps left in various schools of study, more of the news was passed on by the monsters and barbarians in Mobei.

With all the things that have happened recently, it's as if the monsters and humans have suddenly reconciled.

The two sides actually began to work together tacitly.

Because of the common threat of Lu Jing, the two sides who had been fighting each other for who knows how many years could finally have such a tacit understanding one day.

This was somewhat unexpected for both the monsters and the human race.

As all the scholars who went north died tragically, leaving no one alive, the imperial court, the literati, and even many aristocratic families in Zhongzhou were all furious.

The court did not expect Lu Jing to be so arrogant and rebellious.

The literati had not expected that those three or four thousand scholars would be wiped out, resulting in a large gap in the new generation and core members of the literati in Zhongzhou.

In this situation, wouldn't other schools such as Xuanmen be willing to take advantage of the situation?

The reason why the aristocratic families were furious was mainly because many of the scholars in the Dayu Dynasty were from aristocratic families themselves, or were trained by aristocratic families.

The sources of these families are often scholars.

For example, Confucius Mansion.

But soon news came out that the Wang School of Mind announced that from now on it would no longer be involved in the affairs of the court and the public, and would concentrate on study.

Taoism and other elementary schools also declared the same.

This left the imperial court and the literati somewhat confused.

Is it necessary for just one Lu Jing?

As a result, many great scholars, presidents of academies, and people from the Confucius Mansion wrote letters to the court, hoping that the court officials and soldiers would immediately march north to arrest the madman Lu Jing.

Moreover, this time, the scholars and the aristocratic families are willing to provide manpower, money and food!
Among them, the performance was the most intense in the Confucius Mansion.

The Kong Mansion clearly stated in the memorial: "The court needs people, and the Kong Mansion has no shortage of people! If they want money, the Kong Mansion will give it to them even if they sell everything they have! If they want food, the Kong Mansion will go hungry every day to collect food for the court!"

For a time, voices of condemnation against Lu Jing were heard everywhere in the world.

Faced with such strong instigation from Shilin.

The cabinet and the emperor disagreed.

At the imperial meeting, Emperor Jingyu threw aside the memorial in his hand and chuckled, "Okay, when we were fighting the Mobei monsters, we had to raise military supplies. They either had no money or no food."

"Now they know the pain when the knife hits their bodies. They have money and food. Humph."

Gao Ge's family is also wealthy, and he felt a little suspicious when he heard Emperor Jingyu's snort.

However, he still said, "Your Majesty, don't worry about it. Lu Jing will definitely be cured. But the most important thing at the moment is to quickly take back the post of Governor-General of Japan. I have planned to send Li Tingchun to serve as the Governor-General of Japan. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Li Tingchun was the Minister of Personnel and was Gao Ge Lao's right-hand man and confidant.

He also occupied a very important position in the Ministry of Personnel.

But now, in order to seize Japan, he even sent out his most capable men.

Emperor Jingyu and Gao Ge Lao had an extraordinary friendship, so when he heard Gao Ge Lao say this, he said without thinking: "Just do as you say, Gao Su."

Because of Lu Jing's sudden change, Zhang Ge Lao, who used to have a lot of say in the cabinet, has been quiet recently. He can only use his obedience and ability to prevent Gao Ge Lao from killing him.

After all, there are not many officials as capable as Zhang Ge Lao in the entire court.

When Lord Zhang put aside his pride and ideas and began to obey Lord Gao completely, Lord Gao suddenly felt the relief and relief as if he were assisted by God.

This is the charm of a top-level support.

So Lord Gao has been very hesitant and conflicted recently.

Just like how Cao Cao treated Sima Yi back then, it was a mixture of love and hate.

Although sending soldiers to arrest Lu Jing seems a bit exaggerated, Lu Jing still needs to be dealt with, otherwise it will not be enough to appease the public anger.

So Gao looked at Zhang again and said, "Zhang, you are an old subordinate of Lu Jing. You can see how to deal with him more safely."

Zhang Ge Lao immediately bowed his hands and said humbly: "It's all up to your majesty and Gao Ge Lao to arrange."

You give the word, and I'll do the work!
Zhang Ge Lao's attitude is extremely correct.

However, Zhang Ge Lao still said: "Even if we want to arrest that lunatic Lu Jing, who in the world can control him?"

You can't let me, the second-in-command of the cabinet, arrest Lu Jing, right?
Even if he smeared his brains all over Lu Jing, he couldn't cause any harm to Lu Jing.

This is a very practical question.

Not to mention Emperor Jingyu, even Lord Gao was overwhelmed.

Gao Ge Lao threw the question back: "Then according to Zhang Ge Lao's opinion, what should we do?"

Zhang Ge Lao had a plan in mind: "At present, Lu Jing is almost invincible in the world. Unless we send a large army and use the national treasure, we can suppress him. But if we do so, our Dayu will definitely suffer a great loss."

"Plus, there is a supreme master lurking in Mobei."

"If we mobilize so many troops in the future, I'm afraid it will only give the monsters an opportunity."

"Although the lunatic Lu Jing is arrogant, domineering, cruel and bloody, he is still outside the territory of Dayu. It would be better for the court to issue an imperial edict to severely criticize him, prohibit him from entering Dayu again, and deprive him of all his official titles and positions, and the future generations' path to officialdom."

Hearing this, Lord Gao couldn't help but snort coldly.

So much to say!

Isn't it all bullshit!
Apart from issuing an imperial edict to curse him to vent his anger, the madman Lu Jing never received any punishment.

What official title and status, what prohibition on their descendants from entering the government...

Does Lu Jing care?

He doesn't even have offspring!
However, this is also the best option for the court.

Because the court only needed to issue one imperial edict.

Zhang Gelao continued, "Of course, this is just to relieve the pressure on the scholars. When that demonic supreme master reaches a high level of cultivation in the future, Lu Jing will definitely have a life-and-death fight with him."

Gao Ge Lao raised his eyes and asked: "Why do you think so?"

Zhang Ge Lao lowered his eyes and said, "Lu Jing is very strong in killing monsters."

After all, he is also a human.

Elder Gao snorted again, but he had to admit that Elder Zhang's method was the most labor-saving and effective.

This is also the reason why Lord Gao has been reluctant to let Lord Zhang step down.

Lord Zhang can always find a solution that satisfies all parties among a myriad of issues.

In addition, Gao Ge Lao was already old, and the entire huge court was shouldered by him alone, which was already beyond his capacity.

He needs a helper.

such a pity……

If Zhang Taiyue was his student, he would be more obedient and submissive to him.

The old and frail Lord Gao looked at Lord Zhang with an extremely complicated look.

The young and strong Zhang Ge Lao looked down and stared at his toes, like a wooden man.

It was not until the imperial meeting was over and he walked out of the palace that Lord Zhang dared to secretly look up at the sky of the Dayu Dynasty before getting into the sedan chair... The sun was very strong today.

Can he still wait until the day when he can realize his ambitions?
……

In accordance with the policy of the Dayu Cabinet, the Minister of Personnel soon set out from Jinkou Port and began to head towards Japan under the escort of Dayu officers and soldiers.

Afterwards, the Dayu court also issued an imperial edict severely criticizing Lu Jing.

The wording of the imperial edict was harsh, and it verbally attacked Lu Jing from all aspects, from morality to personal ethics, from personal to official. After the scolding, it also appeased the scholars in the world, especially the scholars of Confucius Mansion and Neo-Confucianism.

The Confucius Mansion and Neo-Confucian scholars were also allowed to not pay taxes for three years, especially the masters of the house.

Finally, the imperial edict was handed over to the Ministry of Rites and copied throughout the country.

The matter of Lu Jing's massacre of scholars in Mobei was taken seriously by the Dayu court, but was finally let go.

All the scholars in the world were speechless and broke their defenses.

But this group of scholars saw that the higher-ups had given the explanation, and if they continued to make trouble they would be punished by them.

As a result, many scholars gave up.

The Confucius family expressed outrage about this!
Then they got angry... and got angry.

Anyway, that's how the matter has been settled.

Soon, news of the court's treatment of Lu Jing spread back to Mobei.

When Lu Jing handed the imperial edict on the court bulletin to Lu Xinming, Zhang Jiuyuan and Cheng Fengxiao, three masters of literature and art, at the Anbei Academy, they all frowned after reading it.

However, Cheng Fengxiao still said: "This is the best outcome."

"After all, we are outside the territory of Dayu. Even if the Dayu court wants to deal with us, it won't be able to find many excuses in a short time."

"Even the imperial court let our families off lightly..."

This is strange.

Lu Jing said, "No, this is not surprising at all. After all, many details of the Mobei incident have not been spread. In addition, you are all from large families in various places, and you all have connections in the court. With some operations, I can make it unclear whether you are alive or dead. Even if I see you acting with me, I guess you will be considered to have been coerced. Or you have been refined into a puppet."

"This is your personal behavior. Your family will definitely cut ties with you."

Three great scholars: "..."

That seems to be a good idea.

Lu Jing: "So as long as your family shows enough sincerity to the court, the court will naturally let you off easily. It's just hard for you, I'm afraid you will be removed from the family tree in the future."

Three great scholars: "..."

Seeing that the three great scholars were a little depressed, Lu Jing smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will try my best to let you open a separate book in the family tree."

Open a single book...

The future is still uncertain!

Lu Jing knew that these three people had little confidence now.

After all, although Lu Jing can show off his abilities in the human world, he is far from invincible in the entire world.

So Lu Jing stood up and said, "Then you might as well come with me to watch a show and see where Lu's confidence comes from."
