Chapter 338 You Betrayed the Aristocracy
You can't use extraordinary powers at will. At your current level, every time you "reveal your true self", it will cause drastic fluctuations in your fate.

Routine problems are best solved conventionally...

Slowly exhaling, Zhu Haomiao looked at the densely packed steel needles on his body, impatiently pulled them out and threw them on the ground.

Although this move is specifically designed to counter horizontal training and has a strong ability to penetrate armor, in the face of a 94-point [Body] attribute and the great perfection realm [Stellar Furnace Body Tempering Technique], it can only barely break through the defense, penetrate half an inch into the flesh, and cause some superficial injuries.

Immediately, looking at Lei Mingze who was unconscious on the ground, Zhu Haomiao sneered and kicked him twice.

"Brother, a dog licker will not die a good death. In her heart, you are just a sixth-rank rough man, a toy for practicing martial arts..."

Just as the young man was teasing, Yan Yunsheng rushed into the room, looked around vigilantly, saw the figure on the ground, took out a small notebook, made a stroke, and reported to Zhu Haomiao respectfully.

"Sir, the Tiger Head Gang in Dayefang has been completely wiped out, and only a few small gangs are left..."

"Well, take this guy back and lock him up. As for the other small shrimps, we'll try to root them out tonight!"

"When tomorrow morning comes, I don't want to see any trace of gangs under my rule."

Sensing the hint of murderous intent in the young man's gentle tone, Yan Yunsheng's eyes narrowed and he clasped his fists solemnly.

"Respect."

"By the way, please help me sort out who are the leading figures of each sect in the martial arts world?"

"Especially the direct descendants of this generation of the Demon Cult."

"Yes!"

........................

That night, the pest control operation in the eight markets was sweeping across the city, affecting nearly one-tenth of the entire imperial capital. The fierce shouting and killing even alarmed the city defense forces.

Overnight, the eight major markets turned into rivers of blood and corpses piled up into mountains. Even though it was already winter, the smell of blood still lingered for days. It took nearly half a month to clean up all the bloodstains and broken limbs.

When the citizens of various towns and cities trembled and returned to their normal lives, they suddenly found that the scoundrels who used to bully men and women were gone, and the bullies who forced people to buy and sell and collected protection fees disappeared!
Even the ferocious black dog (constable) who often dine and free meals has become polite and will pay for food!
The most important thing is that vicious crimes such as rape, robbery, trafficking, and murder are almost extinct!
As the public security situation improved rapidly, people suddenly felt that the noose around their necks had loosened, the mountain pressing on their backs had disappeared, and day had arrived!
As a result, Li Lin's reputation among the people grew day by day, and his reputation was so good that he seemed like a Bodhisattva who came down to earth to save people from suffering!
In sharp contrast, Li Lin's reputation among the upper nobility became extremely detestable, and memorials impeaching him flooded the cabinet like a tide.

What kind of wanton cruelty, hurting people, slaughtering common people, exploiting the wise, and harming the good...

Anyway, it can be summed up in one sentence: Li Lin, you betrayed the aristocracy, damn it!

It has long been known that these gangs are nothing more than the white gloves of various powerful people, helping them to exploit people without bloodshed. Once their interests are touched, they will inevitably provoke a fierce counterattack.

Zhu Haomiao checked with Yin Tianze in advance and asked him to help withstand the official criticisms.

At the same time, the emperor's health seemed to be really failing, and he had not attended court for a long time. The entire superstructure of [Dazhen] was in turmoil and all attention was attracted by the turmoil of the succession to the throne.

The real nobles were all keeping a close eye on the princes, some were placing bets, some were colluding, undercurrents were surging beneath the political arena, and everyone was gathering strength, waiting for the final moment of the decisive battle.

In this situation, the commotion caused by Li Lin immediately became a trivial matter. No one wanted to create trouble at such a critical moment, so the pressure he felt was unexpectedly weak.

However, stealing someone's money is like killing their parents. It's not that there is no retribution, but the time has come.

When the new emperor ascends the throne and gains a firm foothold, the powerful groups whose interests have been damaged will be free to settle their accounts. I am afraid that it will be time to settle accounts! Zhu Haomiao had long anticipated a more violent reckoning in the future, but he was not disturbed at all.

At the rate he was growing, he would soon not have to worry about so many things.

It is not certain who will settle accounts with whom by then!
If it really doesn't work, he doesn't mind deposing and replacing the emperor.

Thinking of this, Zhu Haomiao, who was standing at the top of the huge underground cavity, looked up, his eyes passed through the thick layer of soil, and smiled leisurely.

"As a powerful and beloved hero in troubled times, with so many people supporting me, it would be reasonable for me to use the emperor to control the other princes, right?"

Not feeling any drastic reaction from the Heavenly Dao, Zhu Haomiao pursed his lips in satisfaction.

As long as he is within the scope of the game of fate rules, he can actually influence the direction of the world line to a great extent!
"Sir, the prisoners are brought here!"

Just then, Yan Yunsheng walked over and reported tremblingly.

"Well, send them all in."

The boy nodded, looking down at the huge pit with a straight edge, watching tiny ant-like figures being thrown in.

These ragged figures were all former leaders of major gangs, and the worst one was a seventh-rank warrior!
The strongest ones were the three third-rank warriors who assassinated him.

It was just that their true qi was sealed, and they were also destroyed by the [Grasp of Immortality]. Most of these people looked listless and weak.

"Sir, I will take some people outside to keep watch."

Although he didn't know what Zhu Haomiao was trying to do, Yan Yunsheng already had a vague premonition. He tactfully led all the detectives to evacuate the underground space, leaving only the young man standing at the edge of the pit.

At the bottom of the pit, the prisoners also had a bad premonition. They looked at the terrifying young man who was looking down at them from above, and their expressions were extremely ugly.

Some knelt down and begged for mercy, some cursed loudly, and some cried and complained...

Some people even tried to climb up a cliff more than ten meters high to escape!

However, the pit that they could escape from with a few leaps in the past now seemed like an indestructible chasm. An inexplicable evil force enveloped the pit, and a barrier of qi as thin as a cicada's wing covered the entrance of the cave, locking them in the valley like a bug.

Watching these people's actions indifferently, Zhu Haomiao spoke softly, and his evil whispers flowed like venom, penetrating into everyone's soul with supernatural conceptual power, tampering with and twisting their will.

"Today, only one of you can come out alive. Fight and hate each other..."

"Why aren't you the one who survived?"

A strange bright yellow luster appeared in the dull pupils. The atmosphere in the valley suddenly changed drastically. Everyone looked at their former companions and friends with resentful and twisted eyes.

"Do you want to kill me?!"
