Divine Seal: My demon ancestor has crawled out of his grave!

Chapter 260 Establishing Authority at the Conference!

Now, after such a long period of integration, the power of the six temples has been basically integrated.

As expected, many people were dissatisfied with his forceful establishment of the country and his forceful ascension to the throne.

They were even more dissatisfied with the integration of the six great temples, all of which were now under the control of the empire.

These people took advantage of the empire's consolidation to commit many illegal acts against the imperial law.

Then...

Kill him!

Perfect, let's make an example of them!
Soon, Feng Chen convened a meeting and invited the empire's top officials.

Holy City, Grand Conference Hall.

Feng Chen sat in the main seat, looked around, and said calmly, "Everyone has worked hard for the empire during this time."

“For the sake of the empire, there is no need for suffering,” Long Tianyin immediately echoed.

Immediately afterwards, Feng Chen smiled slightly and took out a death list.

"Yes, everyone has been working tirelessly for the empire during this time, but..."

"Huang Xu from the Magic Temple, Su Yun from the Knight Temple..."

"The person whose name I just called has disregarded imperial law and abused his power for personal gain. He is hereby sentenced to death as a warning to others!"

Upon hearing Feng Chen call his name, Huang Xu immediately stood up. But when he heard Feng Chen's pronouncement, his body froze.

"May I ask Your Majesty, what mistake have I made? I have devoted myself to the empire, even unto death. I have done my utmost, even if I have not made any great contributions, I have certainly put in a lot of hard work!" Huang Xu immediately began to play the victim.

Feng Chen sneered: "The mistakes you've made? Haven't you made enough mistakes already!"

As he spoke, Feng Chen tossed out a stack of documents, which flew through the air a few times before landing precisely in the hands of each of the senior executives.

Huang Xu's face was also covered with evidence of his crime.

He picked up the document and was immediately dumbfounded.

No, he did it so discreetly, how did he get discovered?
Upon seeing this, Li Zhengzhi, the former temple master of the Magic Temple, gently shook his head.

You idiot, you piece of trash!
He had repeatedly emphasized that everyone inside the magic temple should behave themselves, but he never expected there would still be such idiots!

It's beyond saving, there's no hope.

Huang Xu then played the victim: "Your Majesty, I have shed blood for the empire! I have been wounded for the empire! You cannot treat me like this!"

Feng Chen: ...

Feng Chen was speechless.

The empire has only been established for a year and has not even fought a single war. Where have you shed blood for the empire?

If you're going to make up a lie, at least make one believable!
Feng Chen gently raised a finger and tapped the handle of the throne.

The next second, all the high-ranking officials who had been named were suppressed.

With a few thuds, the dozen or so people knelt on the ground.

With a few cracking sounds, Feng Chen destroyed the spiritual power of all ten-odd people.

Immediately afterwards, a group of soldiers came in and dragged these people away.

The evidence against these people is clear, and they are certain to die.

Seeing this, everyone fell silent, fearing that they would also be called out, have their cultivation destroyed, and then be dragged away and beheaded like dead dogs.

Chen Zidian glanced at Feng Chen excitedly.

Because he could sense that Feng Chen's strength had increased!
It's very likely that it has reached the ninth rank, eighth level!
Such a rate of spiritual power enhancement is terrifying!
But then Chen Zidian shook his head.

Someone with such immense talent belongs to the Heaven-Defying Demon Dragon Clan, not to humans! He wasn't sad, he absolutely wasn't sad!
The meeting then adjourned.

Several palace masters, the old palace master, and high-ranking officials of the empire like Chen Zidian were all left here by Feng Chen.

Feng Chen said calmly, "Next, there is a second matter. I had negotiations with the Demon God Emperor of the Demon Clan some time ago and just learned that the Demon Clan will be leaving the Holy Demon Continent one after another and returning to their own world."

"Therefore, we will be taking over the cities left behind by the demons one after another. In the meantime, we hope..."

As soon as Feng Chen finished speaking, Yang Haohan stood up excitedly and couldn't help but bow.

"Your Majesty, this is wonderful news!"

The demons are leaving, which means that the dark ages of humanity are finally coming to an end!
This is absolutely fantastic!
Yang Haohan did not doubt Feng Chen's words, because he knew that his disciple would not lie.

Feng Chen immediately dodged Yang Haohan's bow: "Teacher, there's no one else here, you can just call me by my name as before."

Yang Haohan was still very excited and patted Feng Chen on the shoulder: "Chenchen, you are a hero to humanity."

Chen Zidian continued to sigh.

The small meeting then continued, with in-depth discussions on several issues arising within the empire, and revisions made to some legal loopholes…

The meeting lasted a full day before it finally ended.

But in the end, Yang Haohan stood up, looked at Feng Chen, and asked a question.

“Your Majesty, whatever happens next, just in case, I think we should awaken the power of the Holy Mountain of Knights.”

The temple lords present all knew about the power of the Holy Mountain of Knights, and upon hearing Yang Haohan's words, they all showed respect.

Apart from a few palace masters, the other high-ranking officials of the empire were somewhat puzzled, wondering who they were talking about.

Feng Chen also knew who Yang Haohan was talking about.

Yang Haohan was referring, of course, to the eternal heroes within the Holy Mountain of Knights.

"Teacher, please share your thoughts."

Feng Chen's gentle reply seemed to completely lack the decisive and efficient demeanor he had shown before.

Yang Haohan nodded slightly, then immediately said, "Everyone, this matter is of great importance. Please keep it a secret no matter what."

Upon hearing this, the senior executives nodded, their expressions becoming serious.

Yang Haohan continued, "More than six thousand years ago, when the demon race descended, we humans and the demon race waged a continuous war."

"In the final battle, nearly a hundred of our human ninth-tier powerhouses were all killed by that super powerhouse of the demon race, and most of them were left without a trace."

"After the war, we only managed to recover the bodies of more than forty strongmen."

"That super strong demon was too strong, really too strong. In the final battle, he killed all the seniors with just one move."

"If it weren't for the final burst of energy from the Throne of the God of Eternity and Creation, we humans would probably have been destroyed in the long river of history."

Hearing this, Feng Chen understood.

The super strong person Yang Haohan mentioned is Feng Yun.

I never expected that such a situation would occur back then.

Unexpectedly, his great-aunt was already so powerful more than 6,000 years ago.

Yang Haohan said, "As for the more than forty powerful individuals who fell, the alliance at that time used a forbidden spell scroll called the Spirit Transfer Scroll to prevent the demons from making a comeback."

"And this is a necromancy spell that can turn the dead into undead, from a necromancer called the Scourge."

Upon hearing this, everyone was immediately taken aback.

Necromancy and the necromantic scourge have left too many painful lessons in human history.
