C274 Decision

Hsiang Yunli's mother also knew what kind of existence Chu King was. If Guanghan Marquis lied, she was afraid that he would be beaten to death on the spot!

"My king, this is what happened. This subject was confused for a moment. My king, please forgive me this time!"

Guanghan Marquis looked at Chu King, tears flowing down his old face. He even wanted to say his previous achievements.

It was precisely because he had helped the current Chu King seize the throne when he was young that he had the current Guanghan Marquis. This kind of achievement was not something that an ordinary person could compare with!

"But my king, the privilege that you gave me previously was ignored by Ye Tian and forced my way into my mansion. I have no choice but to mention this crime!"

Although Guanghan Marquis had confessed everything, he couldn't ignore the mistakes that Ye Tian had made. He had to drag Ye Tian into this matter.

For such crimes, being exiled was the lightest outcome. It wasn't impossible for him to be sentenced to death because of this.

"Ye Tian, are you really doing this?"

Chu King looked at Ye Tian and his tone became fierce. It seemed like if Ye Tian admitted to this, Chu King would let the Imperial Guard come in the next moment. He would shred Ye Tian into a thousand pieces.

Ye Tian nodded indifferently, but he didn't see Chu King making any moves. He just sighed softly.

"Sigh, young man, you are too impulsive. Do you know my relationship with Guanghan Marquis? I will punish you with three hundred thousand Vast Essence Coins if you are so reckless. You don't have any objections, do you? "

Chu King changed the topic. For such a serious matter, it was only the result of losing three hundred thousand Vast Essence Coins to Ye Tian.

One had to know that in the Imperial City, a power that belonged to a family didn't care about a few hundred thousand Vast Essence Coins. Even a hundred thousand Vast Essence Coins was just the daily expenses of a family.

Hearing this, Patriarch Xiong and Guanghan Marquis both understood. This Chu King had no intention of punishing Ye Tian severely.

Even a fine of 300,000 was just a show for outsiders!

With such an advantage, even if Ye Tian didn't care about it now, Xiong family and Guanghan Marquis had no chance of turning the tables.

Even Hsiang Yunli's mother thought of the possible outcome, and her body went limp, and she almost fainted.

What Chu King meant also made Ye Tian's face turn black. Although it was caused by the death of Little Six, in the end, it was to eliminate the hidden danger for Chu King.

And such a thing made the Ye family take out 300,000 Vast Essence Coin. Ye Tian was very unhappy.

"Since Marquis Ye has admitted his crime, how should we settle the matter of Guanghan Marquis sending men of sacrifice to kill the Ye family members?"

Chu King smiled with satisfaction. After all, Ye Tian had given him face, making things easier for him to handle after this. Moreover, the Vast Essence Coin that appeared out of nowhere was better than nothing!

As a first class marquis, Ye Tian's family members enjoyed the protection of the marquis. If Guanghan Marquis did this, he would be courting death!

"We are brothers. I don't want to say anything. You can do whatever you want. I won't do anything..."

Chu King still pretended to be reluctant to part with Guanghan Marquis and let Guanghan Marquis end his own life. This kind of heartlessness, even Ye Tian was secretly impressed.

The Imperial Guard had already dragged Guanghan Marquis out of the palace. Currently, only Ye Tian and the Xiong family were left in the palace.

"Aren't you all clear about the matter? Now, let me tell you all, if you cause any more trouble, don't blame me for being heartless..."

After saying that, Chu King looked at Hsiang Yunli's mother and said, "It's precisely because Yunli has done something illegal that he is getting further and further away from the imperial family. I hope you understand that if you, the mother, don't behave yourself... I will..."

Chu King's calm tone scared Hsiang Yunli's mother to the point that she fell to the ground. This was no longer a warning, but an order!

Furthermore, Chu King's meaning was even clearer. Hsiang Yunli's mother was already in the grey zone in Chu King's eyes, and could be dealt with at any time. It was just that he still needed a reason.

"Your Xiong family has been peaceful lately. If you can't, don't blame me for not giving you face..."

One side was severely punishing him, while the other side was warning him. Chu King had only used this incident to deal a blow to the hidden dangers of both sides, stabilizing the path for the next Chu King.2

However, this was far from enough in Chu King's heart. The strength of the secular world was finally not much of a threat. The real threat was still the sect on top of the mountain, which was on par with Wang Ting...

Chu King waved his hand. Patriarch Xiong and Hsiang Yunli's mother could only take their leave. Xiong Dahai's matter was also left unsettled. At this moment, only Chu King and Ye Tian were left on the spot.

"Ye Hou, you should pay more attention to this matter. Although this sovereign deals with it impartially, there will still be people who will not accept it..."

This sentence of impartially handling the matter made Ye Tian feel even more helpless. Those three hundred thousand Vast Essence Coins's death was too unjust.

However, Chu King's reminder made Ye Tian understand that the Xiong family would not let this matter rest just like that. It was certain that they had other means to deal with this matter.

However, Ye Tian wasn't afraid. If what he said was true, he, Ye Tian, wouldn't care about wiping out a hundred-year-old family in the Imperial City.

After bidding farewell to Chu King, Ye Tian returned home and waited. At this moment, the Xiong family who had returned home was filled with anger, and they couldn't hide it any longer.

When he came out of the palace, Patriarch Xiong almost revealed his true colors. If it wasn't for Hsiang Yunli's mother's secret reminder, the old official might have seen Patriarch Xiong's expression.

Such a disrespectful attitude wasn't impossible to convict him on the spot. If that was the case, the Xiong family wouldn't have the chance to take revenge.

"Big brother, what should we do now? Once this matter is revealed, the surrounding families will surely know about it. Our Xiong family might even become the laughing stock of them!"

Hsiang Yunli's mother was especially worried. She didn't expect Ye Tian and Chu King to work together in secret. This matter had already begun to take shape in Chu King's mind.

She didn't want to let this matter rest. If this continued, her status as a concubine would be lost, and the Xiong family would lose its advantage completely.

In the Imperial City, any family that didn't have any advantages, regardless of whether it was a hundred or a thousand years, would eventually decline. Even the Xiong family wouldn't be able to do so.

"Of course I know that I can't let this matter rest. Isn't that Ye Tian crazy? But he doesn't know that our Xiong family still has a hidden force! "

Patriarch Xiong's expression was ruthless. The confrontation in the Palace had given him an unerasable killing intent. Unless he killed Ye Tian, he would never let this killing intent rest!

" More than ten years ago, I tried to rope in a deacon elder of the Misty Sect. I kept providing this elder to him. Now, he has already reached the seventh level of the Earth Profound Stage, but because he doesn't like power, he doesn't have a very high status in the Misty Sect... "

Patriarch Xiong looked at his sister's puzzled face and told her everything.

After all, the Misty Sect was the number one sect in the Chu Country. Its power was terrifying, and it had become a good place for all the families in the Imperial City to get in touch with.

Some families sent their children to the Misty Sect, and some even paid tribute to the Misty Sect every year. Money and treasures were the bottom line of the family.

However, with so many people from the Misty Sect, there were only a few left in the sect. The disciples of those aristocratic families who were cultivating in the sect couldn't display their extraordinary talent, so there were many people who were forgotten by the sect.

Patriarch Xiong weighed the pros and cons. Naturally, he knew that it was impossible to imitate these things. Therefore, he tried to rope in a deacon elder who was so ordinary that he couldn't be any more ordinary.

Although he was an ordinary deacon elder, how could he be an ordinary elder in the Misty Sect?
