Chapter 681 - 681 681 The Moment of Total Capture

681: Chapter 681: The Moment of Total Capture 681: Chapter 681: The Moment of Total Capture All those who came to cause trouble were captured, instantly becoming slaves.

Even the military was not spared, and Coruas along with other Lords could not utter a word.

After all, although these people belonged to the military, they were not there in their capacity as soldiers to create trouble.

The entire process was disguised as people from various professions, so it could easily be claimed as unawareness.

Even if other Lords dared to claim these troops as their own, they feared bearing a grudge from the Xuanwu Territory.

Therefore, not only did they dare not speak up, but they also had to help conceal the matter.

Some who knew the inside story were filled with dissatisfaction.

This was particularly true for the families of the soldiers, who suffered silently.

Many harbored resentment against the Lords, merely waiting for the right time to explode.

Leveraging this incident, a major purge began in the Xuanwu Territory immediately.

Some troublemakers were arrested on the spot, resulting in the previously established prisons being utterly insufficient.

With no other choice, officials everywhere began to conduct trials overnight.

Based on the issues with these people, judgments were directly made.

Some were sent for reformation through labor, while others involved in serious disturbances were immediately made slaves.

They had been prepared for this all along.

At this moment, Xi Fei, who had just fought a battle, also had to drag herself to review various documents.

“This is really troublesome, if you ask me, just turn them all into slaves,” she said.

“My lady Xi Fei, we can’t do that.

If we went that far, our reputation would suffer a severe blow,” they responded.

Their territory was not like other territories.

Because Zhao Guang had established a system of law from the beginning, rather than a rule by personal decree found in other territories.

In other words, no matter what the crime was, it had to be judged according to the laws of the territory, not by personal senses.

If it were otherwise, they would hardly have a way to challenge the Temple.

Unlike now, many who belonged to the Temple were directly captured.

After all, although they were not directly involved, they had participated in those deeds.

Having participated, they definitely left traces which had already been recorded.

They even knew that the people from the south who came to cause trouble were connected by the Temple.

Sadly, they only knew, without any concrete evidence.

Because the Temple members who coordinated the two super professionals were not from the internal personnel of the territory.

Thus, according to the laws of the territory, they openly had no means to proceed.

“Damn, we should amend the law and deal with these people properly,” Zhao Guang cursed under his breath.

Qiao Miya nervously laughed, feeling somewhat helpless.

Ever since Xi Fei had advanced to the rank of Great Mage, her authority was not something they could simply question.

Whereas he used to be able to offer suggestions, now he hardly dared.

In this world where power was revered, they could not change their behavior even towards someone of a slave status.

“My lady, the Temple’s people have arrived.

They’ve requested that we release their people,” someone suddenly came into the room and reported to Xi Fei, not even daring to lift his head.

They knew who Xi Fei was and, given the strength she now displayed, everyone was extremely respectful.

They also feared that seeing Xi Fei’s face might cause them to become distracted.

After all, Xi Fei naturally possessed Enchantress blood, even though it had undergone mutation.

However, after mutation, Xi Fei’s charming ability had not weakened but had instead grown stronger.

It might be somewhat inferior to that of a traditional Great Enchantress, but still not by much, at most just more restrained.

Upon hearing this, Xi Fei became rather irritated, “What, they dare to demand people?

They’ve got some nerve.

Don’t they know what these individuals have done?

They’re lucky I haven’t killed them yet.”

Qiao Miya immediately replied, “Have them wait.

According to our laws, these people will first be judged for their actions.

If they haven’t done anything too bad, they can pay a fine and take them away.”

This had been a rule previously established by Zhao Guang, where minor offenders could be released on bail.

Indeed, they couldn’t just let them stay in their prisons, eating and drinking for free.

After all, these individuals would be recorded, and it would count as a stain on their record.

With such a stain, they would realize the consequences in the future.

Many jobs would be barred to them, not to mention the impact on their families and descendants.

This practice was something Zhao Guang had learned from Earth, reputedly very effective.

As for those who committed more serious crimes, meeting certain criteria meant they could not be released on bail.

At that point, they were either sent for labor reformation or directly turned into slaves.

Even for those from the Temple, Zhao Guang showed no courtesy.

After all, he had already made it clear, and now it had to be demonstrated.

Only by doing so could he control those with various intentions.

Besides, with Zhao Guang not in the territory and Xi Fei handling these matters, it was most appropriate.

They thought she was a demon, so naturally, they couldn’t listen to them; otherwise, how could she be called a demon?

Outside, the Temple personnel who received the message glanced at each other, wordlessly turning to leave.

However, their faces were far from happy.

Xi Fei didn’t care in the least.

You were the first to strike against us, and now you fail and still show us disdain.

To those unaware, it may seem like we’re at fault.

Really, the cheek of you all.

And for such a minor matter, they definitely wouldn’t trouble their Divine beings.

No matter how you look at it, law itself is a form of order.

As long as Zhao Guang continued to act according to this order, without deviating from the realms of order, they couldn’t overtly do anything.

Throughout the night, the territory was busy capturing people.

Many were rudely awakened from their sleep and pulled out of their beds.

One might say that the louder they had been before, the more miserable they were now.

The fate waiting for them was certainly not pleasant.

Upon hearing the commotion, many cautiously came out to inquire about the news.

Once some people figured out what was happening, they didn’t go back to sleep.

Instead, they came out to beat drums and gongs in celebration.

Eventually, people from various towns all came out to celebrate, making it seem like a festival.

No, even festivals were not this lively.

After this incident, their sense of belonging to the Xuanwu Territory deepened even further.

However, as the Xuanwu Territory conducted a large-scale arrest of these people, the news also quickly spread.

The deaths of two super professionals were definitely not a minor issue.

Not to mention, the one who acted was a slave of the Xuanwu Territory.

Who would have thought that someone would train their slave to such a level, exhibiting such strength, truly a miracle.
