Chapter 660: Chapter 396 Legalism Semi-Saint_3

Li Nuo looked around, only to feel that although the world seemed as usual, it somehow seemed different everywhere.

He pushed open the courtyard gate, and two figures sitting on the steps at the entrance stood up upon hearing the noise.

Dongfang Xuan smiled slightly and said, "Congratulations."

The man in black also cupped his fists and said, "Congratulations, Your Excellency."

Li Nuo looked at him, and the man in black immediately explained, "I am Huang Yuan, the master of the Star-picking Tower, here to congratulate Your Excellency on the great success of your cultivation!"

Li Nuo’s brow twitched, "Star-picking Tower?"

He was not unfamiliar with this name.

The Star-picking Tower is a comprehensive Jianghu organization, their business capabilities are extremely broad, whether it’s escorting and delivery, hiring guards, assassins, gathering information, or finding Martial Path instructors, or even private investigations like marital infidelity, all fall within their business scope.

Back when helping his wife with cultivation, Li Nuo once thought of inviting several Sword Dao experts from the Star-picking Tower, but later found it more convenient to organize a Martial Arts Tournament, so he changed his mind.

Huang Yuan continued to explain, "I am from Wei Country, so I’ve always lived in Wei, and I’m actually not very familiar with the Ximen family. This time, it was a coincidence we met, I bear no ill will towards Your Excellency, please don’t misunderstand..."

Huang Yuan, of course, did not mention a single word about the previous incident of chasing him.

He is now very grateful to the mysterious person who stopped him.

If not for him stopping himself, he feared the fate of the Ximen brothers would have been his own fate.

This matter, he intends to keep to himself for life.

Dongfang Xuan looked at Li Nuo and said, "During these several two-hour periods of your retreat, the Emperor and Imperial Family of Yue Country have already been captured, awaiting your disposal. Some generals of the White Wolf Army are leading troops to search through the city of Bo State, rescuing the Daxia people trapped here..."

Based on the clues Li Nuo had gathered along the way, regarding the atrocity against the people of Daxia, not one person in the entire Imperial Family of Yue Country was innocent.

As the Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Justice of Daxia, Li Nuo actually had no authority to dispose of the Emperor of Yue Country.

Not to mention the Assistant Minister, even the Xia Emperor lacked such authority.

Fortunately, once a Legalist’s cultivation reaches the Sixth Realm, there is no longer a need to adhere to written laws, the only law to follow is in one’s own heart.

Today, the most elated were Bai Yu and the generals of the White Wolf Army.

After being wronged for over ten years, with a single rise, they regained their honor and confidence, overthrowing the Yue Country’s Central Army and sweeping through the Black Tiger Army, all in a day’s work.

Bai Yu quickly walked over and said, "Lord Li, according to Senior Dongfang’s instructions, we have gathered a lot of evidence against the Yue Country Imperial Family from the people of Yue Country. What should we do next, should we support a new Emperor?"

The Five Great Dynasties value their reputation; although they conquered Yue Country, they cannot incorporate it into Daxia, or it would be seen as big bullying small, an invasion, and they would fall into moral disfavor.

The best solution is to support a puppet within Yue Country itself.

The current Emperor of Yue Country is a puppet of Wei Country.

The White Wolf Army, after overthrowing the Yue Country’s Central Army, would inevitably need to support a puppet emperor obedient to them.

Such has always been the case throughout history.

Li Nuo shook his head and said, "There’s no need for an Emperor here anymore..."

Not long ago, fearing being taken by the Sixth Realm to have his blood drawn and refined into Lifespan Extension Pills, the Emperor of Yue Country chose to abdicate.

But he only relinquished the power to govern the country, the Wu Royal Family of Yue Country still enjoyed many privileges as before, and the Emperor himself retained supreme legal immunity.

This time, Li Nuo intends to make Yue Country the first truly emperor-less nation on the continent.

He vaguely feels that this might be his opportunity to advance to a Confucian Semi-Saint.

After thinking for a moment, Li Nuo said, "Post notices throughout the city, telling the people of Yue Country that at 11:00 a.m. tomorrow, the public trial of the Yue Country Imperial Family will be held at the palace gates, inviting all city inhabitants to come and watch..."
