Immortal emperor reborn mixed city

Chapter 2209: Epidemic lifted, major discovery

The World Tree was taken out of the ghost-raising gourd by Su Yan and stood directly in the center of the altar. The roots immediately penetrated thousands of meters into the ground!

The World Tree is very huge, like a towering tree, with its treetops reaching into the sky.

At this moment, the surroundings have also changed. The places that were originally ruined and dilapidated now seem to be full of life because of the World Tree.

It's not that the houses have been restored, but that the withered trees have begun to revive and sprout buds in spring.

When many people saw this scene, they opened their mouths and were stunned, with shock in their eyes.

They were completely stunned. They had never seen such a huge tree, and they had never seen such a terrifying tree.

But many people have a kind of expectation in their hearts, who wants to die? They worship the gods only after they are desperate and have no other choice. It is a last resort.

Now that they have such a magical tree, their hearts naturally rekindle hope and are extremely excited.

Su Yan had been standing aside, looking at everything with a calm expression.

The World Tree was beyond his expectations. He didn't expect it to be so big.

However, compared with the World Tree he saw back then, it was still dwarfed and could only be regarded as a seedling.

But taking it out this time is enough to treat this group of people.

Su Yan looked at the World Tree and shouted: "Activate your purification power and get rid of the epidemic virus!"

The branches of the World Tree swayed, as if in response to Su Yan.

The World Tree is naturally full of respect for Su Yan. It is not Su Yan. It is still a giant tree, a tree without any spiritual power.

He might even suffer the fate of being cut down.

Endless purifying power began to spread out and enveloped the surroundings.

This is an invisible force that cannot be seen or touched by the eyes, but the group of people infected with the disease can feel it.

It was as if my neck had been pinched and it was difficult to breathe. Even if I breathed air, it was like haze.

But now, everything can change.

Their breathing became easier and the air seemed to be extremely fresh.

Many people's faces were filled with excitement and even had tears in their eyes. They knew there was hope. This was the biggest shock.

"God has appeared!" someone shouted.

"Thank God!" Some people even knelt down.

Some people knelt down directly in front of the World Tree, as if to worship, just like they knelt down to worship the gods before.

But those with higher cultivation levels did not look at Su Yan like this group of people, but their eyes were filled with gratitude.

Saving someone's life is the greatest kindness.

Su Yan was still extremely calm, looking at the group of people and said: "Those of you who are in a stronger realm can sit around the World Tree and detoxify yourself. Those who are in a lower realm can touch the World Tree."

No one objected, everyone nodded, in awe of Su Yan.

No one was fighting for it, but they were approaching the World Tree in a very orderly manner. This was God taking pity on them, and they were naturally in awe.

The golden elixir monk sat cross-legged next to the World Tree, circulated his energy, and began to expel the virus from his body.

This process takes a certain amount of time, but they are willing to do so. It is of course easier to touch the World Tree, but the number of people is leisurely, and they are willing to give up the opportunity to people with lower realms.

After all, if you delay a little longer, many people may have to leave this world, which they don't want to see.

Everything is moving in a good direction, at least in Su Yan's eyes.

Many people touched the World Tree and worshiped it. Their viruses were purified and their bodies began to slowly recover.

Those who touched the World Tree all walked back, sat down cross-legged, and began to recover themselves.

After about a few hours, this group of people all stood up and became lively and vigorous, completely changing their previous appearance.

"Okay!" Someone cried with joy, his face covered with tears.

"I don't have to die!"

"Okay, thank the sacred tree, thank you sir!"

Seeing such a result, those who were still waiting in line were even more excited. They knew that they would not die. This kind of rebirth was the most unspeakable thing.

Su Yan looked at this group of people, and he understood that these people were pitiful, and the previous anger had actually disappeared long ago.

They are just chess pieces, just loose sand. No one cares whether they live or die.

Because in the eyes of that crazy person, as long as the goal is achieved, the lives of these people are not important.

Of course, Su Yan had long known that the virus was by no means a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster.

Because there is no such virus in this place, it was deliberately released in this area.

Su Yan mourned for the millions of people who died, and he decided to find the murderer and bring him to justice.

He is not overflowing with justice, but simply a little angry, because he has always been treated as a pawn in the upper world.

Su Yan has a strong character and doesn't care about being used as a pawn because he understands that this is only temporary and they are just being used by each other.

The whole process lasted three days and three nights. All more than three million people in the infected area were reborn, and the virus was completely wiped out.

At this moment, the World Tree has also been taken into the Ghost Gourd by Su Yan. The epidemic has been lifted, and its mission has been completed.

For this reason, Su Yan even painfully gave the World Tree a lot of energy to help it cultivate.

At this moment, a man walked up to the sacrificial altar, looked at Su Yan and said with gratitude: "Sir, you saved us, please accept my prayers."

Su Yan waved his hand and the man couldn't kneel down.

"No need to kneel down, I am the governor sent by the empire and I am just following orders."

"Empire?!" The man was shocked. In his eyes, the people of the Xi Xuancheng Empire were all superior beings.

"Does your Taiyu City also have a household department?"

"Yes, they specialize in tax management."

Su Yan took out a map from his arms and said, "Is this the place?"

"Yes, sir."

"Um."

Su Yan glanced at everyone and said, "Don't be restless first. Don't be in a hurry to leave. It will be counterproductive."

"Sir, do you want us to wait?"

"Well, wait for now. After all, you all suddenly got better. People outside will definitely not believe it."

"I understand." The man then looked at everyone behind him and said, "You all heard what the adults said!"

"I heard it." Everyone shouted loudly.

"Okay, you guys stay here, I have something else to do."

After Su Yan said that, he directly used his Yuan Power and left.

After leaving the infected area, Su Yan headed directly towards his destination, the official residence of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Affairs.

The official residence of the Ministry of Finance in Taiyu City is in the west. The distance is still a bit far and it will take some time.

There was silence all the way, and it was already midnight when Su Yan arrived at the Hubu official residence.

At this time, even if it is not the infected area, there are no pedestrians in other places, which is the best for Su Yan.

Looking at the somewhat majestic Taiyu Mansion in front of him, Su Yan climbed over the wall and entered inside.

The formation in the Hubu Mansion naturally has no resistance to Su Yan and can be easily broken.

Su Yan entered it, it was quiet and there was no one.

According to the map of the Hubu official residence in his hand, Su Yan headed directly towards the inner hall.

Things like ledgers must be kept in the most secret places. After all, they are very important things in Taiwan.

Su Yan was also very patient and went all the way to the inner hall without any rush.

But at this moment, a thick cloud filled the infected area, and it was so dark that it seemed like a heavy rain falling due to pressure drop.

However, the people in the infected area were still very happy. They sang and danced and had a good time. They were no longer as cold-blooded, murderous and desperate as before.

Everyone came back to life, had hope, and naturally returned to their true nature.

But they don't know that danger is coming.

In the main hall of the Taiyu Territory, a middle-aged man is sitting at the head of the table. Next to him is a major figure in the Taiyu Territory.

For example, the leader of the Blood Sword Hall is second only to the leader of the Taiwan Domain.

His chief disciple, Xue Di Zi, was also standing behind him. They were both already shining brightly in the Xuancheng Empire.

The father of the Taiyu Territory Master was one of the founders of the Eighteenth Route, named Murong Qian.

The master of the Taiwan Domain is named Murong Qi, and he has cultivated to the seventh level of the Golden Elixir.

At this moment, he looked at the heads of various big families and sects sitting on both sides with a cold look in his eyes.

No officials from Taiyu City are qualified to participate in today's conference, which shows its importance.

"We are summoned here today just for one thing!" Murong Qi looked at everyone with a serious look on his face.

The leader of the Blood Sword Hall said: "Lord, is this a matter of the infected area?"

"That's right."

Hearing this, everyone felt slightly relaxed. This was not a big deal to them. After all, it was just a virus that appeared in Taiyu City.

The most important thing is that millions of people are nothing in their eyes.

"I have had people study this virus specifically, and it has never appeared in our Xuancheng Empire!"

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of those who were not taking it seriously at first changed.

Now they realized the seriousness of the problem.

There has never been a virus, which means two possibilities.

They have to think about the powerful new virus. If it spreads everywhere, it will be a big problem.

The other way is that someone does it deliberately, which is the most unacceptable.

"Lord, have you found the antidote for this virus?" a family leader asked.

"No." Murong Qi said directly, "This virus is so weird that it can be swallowed up by all kinds of antidotes, and it takes a lot of effort to use Yuan Power to remove it."

With so many people, it is impossible to rely on Yuanli to solve them all. I am afraid that before a few people can be cured, the rest will be hopeless.

"Then if this virus breaks out, wouldn't it affect the entire Taiwan region!?"

Everyone realized the seriousness of the problem, no wonder the domain lord called them over.

"It is because of this concern that I called you together for discussion."

"Lord, this virus must not spread, otherwise a terrible disaster will occur in our Taiwan domain!"

"Yes, this must be solved, killed, and not allowed to expand."

When it comes to themselves, this group of people naturally takes it seriously, and no one wants the virus to spread to their area.

"Then tell me how to solve it!"

Murong Qing looked at everyone coldly, with anger.

Everyone looked at each other, and in the end no good solution came up, except strict isolation.

But after all, isolation cannot ensure that everything is safe. It only treats the symptoms rather than the root cause.

At this moment, Murong Qing's son, Murong Ye, spoke.

"Everyone, please listen to me."

Murong Ye was only in his twenties, but because he was Murong Qi's son, no one had a straight face.

"Young Master Murong, it's okay to say so!" the leader of the Blood Sword Hall said in a low voice.

"Isolation is not a long-term solution after all. I think the infected areas have become a hell on earth. Why not help them get out of it."

For a moment, the entire hall was silent, and Murong Ye's words echoed for a long time.

Everyone knew what Murong Ye meant, but they were all a little worried or intolerant.

"I know what you are thinking. If the epidemic is not solved, not only Taiyu City, but also your place will have an epidemic. Even the Imperial City will come to investigate thoroughly, and we will all be blamed."

Murong Ye's words are correct. If something happens in your own region and you can't solve it, then what else do you, the domain master, do?

Murong Qi could only nodded after a long time.

"Sacrifice yourself to achieve everyone's safety."

Then Murong Qi issued an order!

"Everyone, I hope you will bring your troops to quickly deal with the people in the affected areas to ensure that the virus does not break out again!"

The leader of the Blood Sword Hall and others nodded immediately. After all, the domain master was the boss and everyone had to listen to him.

A group of people left the main hall and headed towards the infected area.

At this moment, Su Yan had arrived at the underground passage of Hubu Mansion, and there was a powerful defense formation in front of him.

Su Yan raised the corner of his mouth and punched out casually. The formation was unable to withstand it and was directly shattered.

Su Yan walked in. Inside was a small secret room with various account books, all of which were taxes from Taiwan over the years.

Su Yan started searching according to the year.

The right prince Zhan Ao asked him to conduct a thorough investigation mainly on the tax issue last year, because last year the tax was reduced by half, which was very tricky.

After finding last year's account book, Su Yan opened it and started reading.

According to the account book, there is no problem at all. A novice who usually doesn't move will definitely be fooled.

But Su Yan is no novice. When he was working as a butler at the racecourse, he was very familiar with the routines of the ledger.

After several inspections, he found clues, and subsequent inspections made him even more unexpected.

"The tax revenue of this Taiwan region is so huge for a year, but it only pays one-fiftieth of the tax. This is probably more serious than less than half."

According to the tax ratio set by the Xuancheng Empire, half of the tax revenue of a region must be handed over, but the Taiwan region only turned over one-fiftieth. This is simply a major discovery.

Su Yan took out the account book. This was evidence. Although he didn't care whether others admitted it or not, it was best to be convinced.

Returning along the road, when Su Yan passed through the secret passage, he felt that the mission was completed.

Regardless of whether it was the leader of the Taiwan Domain who evaded taxes or his subordinates, Su Yan's Yuanmai Pill was considered safe.

Just after leaving the household department, the sky was still black and the surroundings were extremely silent, just like when Su Yan came before.

He quietly walked to the courtyard of the Hube official residence, intending to climb over the wall and leave.
