I have a relic of heaven

Chapter 283 My Heart Represents the Heart of Heaven, and We Should Hold a Hongmen Banquet

The hall was solemn and guarded. Lu Qianqian's heart was in a knot. She frantically winked at her father. Lu Zhengyi watched, thoughtful.

As for the other four powerful ones.

Wu Tian was leaning on a cane, neither humble nor overbearing, his gray hair fluttering in the breeze.

He said:

"Why does God say this? We just want a guarantee and a promise from God. After all, being in charge of a royal city is bound to be full of dangers. When we came, I don't know how many demons were full of murderous intent."

Zhou Mu did not answer, but just stared at Wu Tian quietly, and practiced the Shangqing Chaos Sutra to arrange the acupoints and stars in his body into the shape of a young Taoist priest.

There were dense star lines interweaving in his eyes, like a god descending to the earth, which made the five mighty ones in his highness look slightly startled.

Zhou Mu before and after understanding the cause and effect.

He saw the conversation of the five mighty ones outside the royal city, saw them toasting each other in the imperial capital, and listened to their discussions and plans.

Everything is clear.

It is hard to say whether it is good or bad. It is normal for such people to exist. After all, if a person does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth.
Zhou Mu didn't like it very much.

He also has some powerful people.

The hall fell silent, and the atmosphere gradually became more solemn. Wu Tianwei frowned, wondering secretly, could it be that this God had a hard temper and was really going to turn against him?
however.

"can."

Zhou Mu stroked the big fat pigeon on his shoulder and spoke calmly. Lu Qianqian below widened her eyes with disbelief on her face.

what?
Master agreed?
Shouldn't I fly into a rage and let blood splatter in this palace?

Wu Tian and the other three powerful men smiled, while Lu Zhengyi watched from the sidelines without saying a word.

"only."

Zhou Mu continued slowly:

"You must implement my three decrees. I want to see them implemented within a month. I want to see the entire royal city implement my decrees."

As he spoke, he leaned forward slightly, crossed his hands and clenched his fists to support his chin:

"Progress cannot be delayed, and you cannot give up halfway. If you can do this, you will be considered highly capable. I can tolerate such talents, even if their behavior is a little excessive."

Wu Tian and others exchanged glances with each other and were slightly delighted - as expected, God finally gave in!

A smile appeared between his eyebrows and he asked cheerfully:

"I don't know what the decree is from God."

Zhou Mu did not answer, but just asked:
"I just want to hear your answer, do you want to do it, or not? If not, please leave on your own."

Wu Tian just thought about it in his mind, knowing that there were great risks involved, but.
In this era, if you want to become a true king, talent alone is not enough, you also need resources, massive amounts of resources!
But how is it possible to seize massive resources without taking any risks?

Fight!

"We are willing to do it!" Wu Tian said loudly: "Within a month, the government order will be implemented without any mistakes. But please remember your promise and don't let the running dog be abandoned after the rabbit dies!"

"My word is as good as gold."

Zhou Mu said calmly:
"Are all five of you willing to do this?"

Lu Zhengyi glanced at the nervous Lu Qianqian, and finally shook his head:

"God, I admit that my ability is limited, so I won't do it, for fear of delaying God's plan."

"The four of us are willing!"

"Okay." Zhou Mu smiled. "Just do it. As for what the decree is, you will know."

"But I have to say this beforehand. You can't give up halfway. If it's too difficult and you can't accomplish it, I can understand, but you can just give up halfway."

Zhou Mu's smile disappeared, and he said calmly:

"Don't blame me for my thunderous actions."

"It's natural, it should be so!"

Wu Tian and three others performed the ceremony and left the hall happily.

………………

Half an hour later, in a mansion prepared for the powerful people of the human race.

"What?!!"

Wu Tian covered his heart, his eyes widened, his lips trembling:

"Is God crazy? How could he issue such an order? He is seeking death, seeking death!"

The other three great men also turned extremely pale. One of the golden-robed women pursed her lips and said, "No wonder you agreed so readily. No wonder."

She took several deep breaths, but still could not calm her terrified heart, pacing back and forth:
"No, we must escape, immediately! The City of Rescue has become a dangerous place, a hopeless place. We, the God of Heaven, may die at any time. We must leave immediately!"

Wu Tian's lips turned pale and he looked dazed. He couldn't understand why this God dared to do this - why did he dare? ?

They looked at each other, without any hesitation, and fled towards the outside of the city like crazy, without stopping!
This is already a very dangerous place, especially if they accept the government order and continue to stay in the city. Perhaps in the next second, they will be hunted down and killed by the powerful demons!
even
It is even possible that the [True King] is lurking here in anger!

escape!escape!escape!
Four figures cut through the sky, turned into bright light, and rushed out of the City of Rescue. In just a few minutes, they had escaped to a place hundreds of thousands of miles away!

The four mighty men breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, in Jiuku City, the City Lord’s Mansion.

The door of the mansion was not opened, but a sigh could be heard from inside.

Hundreds of thousands of miles away, the four mighty ones who were celebrating their escape from danger had just breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

Suddenly they heard a sigh.

Wu Tian, Mrs. Jin Pao and others subconsciously looked in the direction of the sigh - the one who was sighing was not a living creature, let alone a human.

But
The sky above.

The sky sighed softly, and the sea of clouds opened its eyes.

A familiar voice echoed from the rolling sea of clouds, calm and indifferent.

"I have already said that you cannot give up halfway."

The sky was making sounds, and the roar shook the mountains and the earth. The four mighty men were horrified, sensing the murderous intent in the sky, and looking out they saw the stars moving!
"God, is he so powerful?" Wu Tian muttered to himself in a daze.

He was nailed to the mountain by a murderous intent from the sky that had materialized into substance. His life force was extinguished and he died quickly.

Then the second, and the third.

The woman in the golden robe stared blankly at the three Taoist friends who were being killed by the heavenly nails above their heads like ants.

It turns out that God is really God.

She opened her mouth and begged for mercy at the top of her lungs.

"If a man does not have faith, he cannot stand." God said, "Since you have made a promise, you must fulfill it. If you succeed, I will give you a smooth path to heaven. Even if you fail, as long as you do it, you will be rewarded."

“Not even willing to try, just wanting benefits”

God sighed again:
"The destruction of the Five Kings City is closely related to this. If everyone is like this, how can we change the world?"

The fourth murderous intent was like a divine spear piercing through the top of the golden-robed woman's head.

She too was crucified.

The shaking sky returned to calm, and the great will that descended here and turned into [Heaven's Will] also receded like the tide. This is the ability of the great supernatural power [Heaven's Will] at a small level.

When heaven’s will comes into play, one’s anger is heaven’s wrath, and one’s smile is heaven’s smile.

If one can achieve some small success, then one can truly use one's own heart to represent the heart of heaven in some not-too-vast area of the sky.

And if [God's will] is great and even perfect, then it is the real [God].

………………

City Lord's Mansion.

Zhou Mu closed his eyes and said nothing.

He was really a little disappointed.

It's not anger, but simple disappointment.

"Always."

Zhou Mu muttered to himself in a low voice, for example, in the Five Kings City, at its peak, there were nearly twenty True Kings holding supreme treasures and ancestral artifacts.

Each of them can briefly burst out with divine power or even the power to defeat the divine. It can be said that the Five Kings City at its peak was

Except for the absence of Daluo in charge, it is almost no worse than any single demon dynasty, Foshan, or the underworld on earth, but it always huddles in that small place until its destruction.

Of course, this was due to the combined efforts of various Daluo forces to suppress him.
But there are also internal intrigues and deceptions, and there are many people like Wu Tian and his four companions.
Zhou Mu allows greed, allows mistakes, and allows flaws. He thinks this is normal and that’s how people are. But he does not allow internal strife or just wanting to sit back and reap the fruits of others’ labor. He doesn’t even have the courage to try!
otherwise
Even if he really developed the City of Salvation, even if he really developed the [City of People], unless he could fight against the entire demon world on his own,

Otherwise, it would just be the next Five Kings City.

"Your name is Lu Zhengyi?"

After a long time, Zhou Mu raised his head and looked at the middle-aged man standing in front of the prince. The latter nodded nervously. Although he didn't know what had just happened, he could sense the murderous intent and the four old friends who had escaped.

Lu Zhengyi guessed that perhaps the old friend had passed away.

"Will you take the job?"

"To answer God's question," Lu Zhengyi performed the ceremony carefully and frankly, "I am afraid that I am not capable enough to take on such a great responsibility. I am also afraid of death."

"Ah."

Zhou Mu did not blame him and said calmly:

"Then I will find someone else to implement the order, but I don't keep idle people under my command. You can either assist me or leave. What is your choice?"

"I am willing to assist." Lu Zhengyi said without hesitation.

"good."

Zhou Mu nodded slightly, raised his head and looked outside the hall - he certainly couldn't pin his hopes on those four guys.

He already had someone to implement his policies.

It has been on the way for a long time and has arrived now.

There were footsteps outside the hall. Lu Zhengyi and Lu Qianqian turned back subconsciously and saw two people walking into the hall, both of them were exhausted.

The white-bearded old man in the lead looked mysterious, and behind him was another old man who was also very impressive.

"Greetings to the God of Heaven." Jiang Shang and Wu Hou performed the ceremony together.

Before coming, they already knew about the Salvation City.

Lu Zhengyi looked at these people curiously. Where did this powerful man and this old man with an unclear white beard come from?

He speculated about the origins of the two men, and felt that they looked familiar, as if he had seen them in a portrait before.

Could it be the sage? ?

Lu Zhengyi's heart skipped a beat.

Zhou Mu nodded calmly:

"You two have come at the right time. Grandpa, there is no need to be so polite. I should address you as senior."

Jiang Shang said in a low voice:
"God is joking. In terms of seniority, you are the forerunner of our race. In terms of position, God has made me obey you in everything."

The Lu family father and daughter were somewhat confused when they heard this. Taigong, the ancestor of the human race, the Supreme God.
What is this and what?
Who is this old man?
Zhou Mu did not exchange any more pleasantries and changed the subject:
"Three decrees - two to be exact. The monsters in the city will sign a life and death agreement. The humans will leave the breeding area and move into the city as civilians. If we want to implement them, there will definitely be many difficulties. Do you have any ideas?"

Old Chu also walked into the hall at some point.

Wu Hou said nothing, but looked at Tai Gong respectfully. The latter hesitated for a moment, then looked at Chu Ji and said with a smile:

"I once heard a piece of history that the Overlord Xiang Yu invited the King of Han Liu Bang to a banquet and planned to kill Liu Bang. Unfortunately, the Overlord was indecisive and the killing was not carried out, so he failed later."

Old Chu rolled his eyes – it happened so many years ago, why bring it up!

Zhou Mu was thoughtful:
"Taigong wants me to follow suit and hold a Hongmen Banquet? Then, who should be invited to the banquet?"

"Monster." Taigong said briefly: "Jiuku City was built by the monster tribe tens of thousands of years ago. There must be a wealthy and prestigious family that has been entrenched there for tens of thousands of years."

"These monsters are the [Aristocratic Families] from the ancient times. They are the ones who truly control every aspect of the Salvation City."

After a pause, Jiang Shang continued:
"At the moment, the city is turbid, and I'm afraid there are countless demons outside the city lurking. One is in the light and the other is in the dark, which is the most difficult to deal with."

"Then, God might as well host a banquet for this kind of demon clan family. Under the grand banquet, there will be a mix of good and bad people, and it will also give those who are lurking outside the city a chance."

"By then, at the banquet, we can use thunderous means to wipe out at least 70% of the evil spirits in the city, if not all of them."

Zhou Mu listened and thought quietly. His original plan was pretty much the same. He waited for the little mice in the dark to jump out by themselves.
Taigong’s suggestion is to give these little mice a chance, a ladder, so that they can surface earlier.

The Hongmen Banquet?

If a banquet really were to be held, some radical demons in the Demon Dynasty who were eyeing the City of Salvation would probably come quietly and try to kill him, right?
Yeah.

Zhou Mu made the final decision:

"Then let's do as Taigong said. Seven days later, a grand banquet will be held and all the demon and human families in the city must attend the banquet."

Taigong asked again:

"What if there are people who are not attending the banquet?"

Zhou Mu raised his head, looking past Tai Gong and Wu Hou, and looked at the sky outside the palace with an indifferent expression.

"Punish his clan, destroy his family, and confiscate his property."

Wu Hou now suggested:

“Perhaps it will cause a riot?”

"If a riot breaks out, even if the Hongmen Banquet fails to take place, it will still be considered to have achieved its original purpose and mission."

While speaking, Zhou Mu paused slightly.

"Of course."

He glanced at Chu Ji and said with a smile:
"If the banquet goes smoothly, you must not go."

"What?"

"It's an ominous sign. You have a criminal record. It's a bad sign."

Old Chu was shaking with anger, Taigong and Wu Hou both laughed, but the father and daughter of the Lu family were bewildered and confused, not understanding what was going on.

Lu Zhengyi was increasingly confused about these three people.

Who are they?
