Full-time monk: I am the prophet of civilization!

Upon hearing this, Jiu Ying looked astonished as if she were looking at a wall hanging.

No? I only recently made a deal with the Ocean Emperor, and you already know?

Are you cheating?

In response, Lin Fan could only say that he had no obligation to inform them.

Master Lingkong nodded slightly, and his immense spiritual power directly crushed over him.

Both the nine-year-old baby and the parasite hidden in its eyes had their souls shattered in a single blow.

"Thump!"

With a thud, the battle between the two was over.

Cardinal Nine has been confirmed dead!

Chapter 105 Cleaning up the Forbidden City

Although it seemed like two rounds of fighting had taken place, in reality, including the time it took for the people to talk, less than ten seconds had actually passed.

The speed was so fast that the palace monks on the field had not yet recovered from the shock of Bai Xu being the ninth infant.

The battle was over.

There's no other way; using forbidden spells to defeat higher-level enemies is that simple, brutal, and straightforward.

If the one dealing with Jiu Ying were a counterfeit forbidden spell like Mu Rong's, they might even be tricked by the cold-eyed parasite inside her.

From a puppet of the emperor of the far south to a puppet of the cold-eyed man.

But Granny Lin and Master Lingkong came with Lin Fan.

The two are not only true forbidden spell masters capable of independently releasing forbidden spells.

Their forbidden spells are respectively the light spell that counters dark magic and the mind spell that counters the cold-eyed parasite...

In addition, Lin Fan had a comprehensive understanding of the nine infants' information.

Given the combination of multiple factors, it would be a miracle if the baby could still resist.

"Nan Shou... no, Cardinal Nine is dead just like that?"

Bei Shou Sun Ye stared at the scene before him in disbelief, his eyes twitching slightly.

Having served as one of the four palace guards alongside Jiu Ying (Bai Xu) for many years, Sun Ye was well aware of Jiu Ying's strength.

Although he was slightly stronger than Jiu Ying, he wasn't much stronger.

Even Jiu Ying was instantly defeated, so the strength of the old woman and the old monk in front of him was clearly far beyond his imagination.

The thought that I had actually dared to cause them trouble before...

"Gulp..."

Sun Ye pursed her dry lips and swallowed hard, still feeling a lingering fear.

After calming down, Sun Ye quickly realized what was happening and immediately stepped forward to bow and apologize.

"Please forgive my offense, senior. If there is any need for my service in the future, I, Sun Ye, will go through fire and water without hesitation."

"Councilor Lin, Ye Mei apologizes for her previous doubts..."

As the second-in-command of the Royal Magic Association, Ye Mei was able to cultivate to the level of a top-tier mage.

Although he is arrogant, he is not brainless.

If you do something wrong, you should apologize.

Ye Mei understood this principle.

With the Second Prince and the Northern Guardian setting an example, the other palace monks also apologized to Lin Fan and the others.

However...

"If apologies were enough, what would be the point of laws?"

Looking at the mechanical wolf Fu Yiting, Lin Fan felt nothing but amusement.

They politely stated their purpose and presented their credentials as councilors.

The result was ridicule and sarcasm, with words full of arrogance and disdain from the capital city towards the local areas.

Now, they've given everyone a beating and shown their strength.

They've started groveling again...

His initial arrogance followed by obsequiousness is laughable.

"As a court monk, he neglected his duties, disregarded local authority, formed cliques, and colluded with powerful families..."

Lin Fan directly recounted all the illegal acts committed by the palace monk who had previously stirred up trouble.

Yes, the palace monks stirred up trouble earlier.

In fact, there was also the intention of the scions of powerful families to deliberately make things difficult for Lin Fan, a member of the Tribunal.

But that's understandable. After sitting in the capital for so many years, how could the powerful clans and families not send people to infiltrate the Forbidden City?

Look around.

The Mu family, the Zu family, the Zhou family, the Liao family...

Lin Fan could see clearly all the overt and covert agents of all the aristocratic families and clans.

Under the immense intimidation of Master Lingkong and Granny Lin, all the powerful family mages pointed out by Lin Fan trembled and begged for mercy.

"My lord, I am a man sent by Mu Gong, the patriarch of the Mu clan. For the sake of the Mu clan, please spare me this time..."

The first to see that things were not going well and to beg for mercy was the Mu family.

Unfortunately, if Lin Fan's plan had been followed, after the Forbidden Curse Conference, the Mu Clan would have been like a clay Bodhisattva crossing the river, barely able to protect themselves.

Without further ado, Lin Fan directly sent the message to Master Lingkong via telepathy.

"Please, Master Lingkong."

"Ah."

The two have worked together many times and have developed a perfect understanding of each other.

Lin Fan only sent a message, and Master Lingkong did not hesitate to take action immediately!

Pink starlight shimmered, and an illusory, unstoppable spiritual force instantly reached the target.

"I...I'm so sleepy..."

"Thump! Thump!"

The scene is the same as it was during the Southern Vietnam period.

Whether it's high-end or super-end.

Under Master Lingkong's increasingly skillful mental attacks, he collapsed to the ground in an instant and fell into a deep sleep.

"This……"

Pang Lai and Ye Mei were stunned as they watched their familiar subordinates being taken down in an instant.

It took him a while to come to his senses, his face showing a troubled expression, unsure whether to speak or not...

Whether it was the two forbidden spell masters beside Lin Fan, or the powerful families and clans behind the defeated person.

Neither Pang Lai nor Ye Mei were easy to deal with.

"Chief Pang, there's no need to be embarrassed. I've already said that before."

"I came here today to cleanse the Forbidden City of its sins."

Lin Fan spread his palms out, showing the fallen members of the powerful families.

“In addition to Cardinal Nine, it also includes them.”

"As for the powerful families behind them, you can rest assured."

"I guarantee that no one will dare to cause trouble for the Palace Museum because of them."

Upon hearing this, Pang Lai and Ye Mei, the two top officials of the Palace Museum, both had their pupils shrink in surprise.

Both of them thought of the events that had happened in recent days.

The powerful families of the East and South have all submitted, and the conference on banning curses will be held today.

Most importantly, this forbidden spell conference brought together almost all the forbidden spell masters of the Eastern Empire.

Lin Fan, however, was still able to bring two forbidden spell masters to the Forbidden City and defeat all the noble families and clans within it.

Moreover, judging from their previous performance, the two forbidden spell masters were still led by Lin Fan.

"Councilor Lin, who exactly are you?"

Pang Lai suppressed his shock and subconsciously asked the question that had been bothering him.

However, he regretted it as soon as he asked the question.

In a sense, exploring one's identity and origins is a kind of transgression.

However, Lin Fan didn't care.

Now that he has swept through the powerful families and his power is firmly established, he no longer needs to disguise himself as before.

As long as the core identity of the transmigrator and the talent of the [World Library] are not exposed.

For those who are the youngest councilors or the youngest high-ranking monks, great Confucian scholars will naturally defend them!

Lin Fan smiled slightly and said softly.

"I am just an ordinary member of parliament, nothing more."

Upon hearing this, Pang Lai, Ye Mei, Sun Ye, and the others were filled with the urge to complain.

Is he an ordinary member of parliament who can be followed by a forbidden spellcaster?

That's really "ordinary"...

"As for those people on the ground, they can be dealt with by the tribunal."

Just then, Leng Qing and the others, who had received the message, descended from the sky with the trial proceedings.

Upon landing, under Leng Qing's instructions, the members of the inquisition expertly imprisoned the magical energy of each and every mage...

Seeing familiar faces bound hand and foot in such a disheveled state, even those with no connection to aristocratic families were filled with a sense of unease.

Fortunately, I rejected the advances of powerful families.

otherwise……

Chapter 106 Incorporating Aristocratic Clans and Suppressing Internal Troubles

10 month 3 day.

For all the factions in the capital, this day was destined to be a turbulent one.

Its impact was even greater than the purge of the aristocratic families on October 1st and the public disclosure of their crimes on October 2nd.

First, nearly a third of the monks in the Forbidden City were arrested and brought to justice by the Trial Committee.

Subsequently, significant turmoil occurred in aristocratic families such as the Zhou and Liao families, as well as clans like the Mu and Zu families.

Ordinary people can only see from afar the blurry scenes of many monks being arrested and imprisoned by the Inquisition.

The prestigious Mu and Zu clans had no room for resistance.

But how could ordinary people know that the forbidden spell combat forces of the major clans had already been gathered at the magical house prepared by Lin Fan for a meeting?

In the eyes of Granny Lin, Master Lingkong, Bai Ze, and other forbidden spells and emperors.

Aristocratic families without a forbidden spell master in charge are only slightly more advanced than ordinary families, requiring them to put in more effort.

“Councilor Lin, what you’ve done today isn’t as simple as just putting in a little more effort…”

Looking at Lin Fan ahead, Pang Lai couldn't help but smile bitterly.

As he thought about everything he had witnessed that day, his awe of Lin Fan grew even stronger.
