Douluo: The Ten Kings of Hell start the game, shocking Qian Renxue

Chapter 66: The people’s will is mine. I will not let them down. The Qin Empire has never been afraid of threats!

Tiandou City was very quiet, so quiet that one could almost hear the faint chirping of cicadas.

But even in such a quiet place, every house is brightly lit.

clang--

Until the dark sky gradually turned pale, and the sound of several long gongs and drums came from the palace.

The Tiandou City, which had always been quiet, finally erupted with terrifying noises!

"Your Majesty has ascended the throne!"

"Hurry up!"

"Don't do anything. It's not a big deal if things at home don't go well. If His Majesty doesn't do well, then we will be guilty of a thousand deaths!"

At this moment, all the people walked out of their homes and rushed towards the palace frantically.

Its momentum is even several times more terrifying than the day when Qin Zheng ascended the throne in Lingcheng!
【…】

"The Emperor's habitat is ahead. Anyone coming here should stop."

"Everyone, please line up here in an orderly manner and register."

"Every household can receive Silver Soul Coins!"

After a night's rest, all the fallen ghost soldiers who had escaped from the Tiandou Royal Academy and the Li clan's soul masters have revived, and following Qin Zheng's orders, they set up a desk outside the palace.

The heavy Gintama coins are in the bag. The ghost will glance at the person in front of him who is receiving them, register them, and then distribute the Gintama coins.

With them maintaining order, even when the surrounding people surged in like a tide and blocked the streets of the palace, there was still no sign of chaos.

The scene was very quiet. After receiving the Gintama coins, everyone stood still and looked at the location of the palace with fanatical expressions.

Everyone is waiting.

Waiting for the young emperor that everyone loves to appear in the palace.

【…】

"I've waited for a long time, and I'm finally going to meet this emperor."

"It's just... everyone, even if we abandon our noble status, will he really let us go?"

On a tall building, dozens of old men in luxurious clothes looked at the people rushing towards them, with worry in their eyes.

They dress differently from the civilians off the field.

This group of people are the most authoritative representatives among the remaining nobles in the city.

Everyone gathered here at this moment to meet Qin Zheng.

In other words, it is for the sake of one's own family... to gain a chance for one's bloodline to survive.

"Abandoning your noble status... As nobles, this is the first time we have done such a shameful thing."

"But, I have to do it."

"Because this is our last chance."

An old man clenched his hands, his words filled with reluctance, but in the end he could only sigh deeply.

As nobles, they have to voluntarily abandon their noble status and become a dog at the other party's knees. For them, this is a decision that completely betrays their ancestors, but they... are powerless!
Because in the past few days, Qin Zheng's heinous killings had completely frightened them.

All civil and military officials were killed, Xue Ye was killed, the Li clan was killed, and tens of thousands of senior teachers and students of the Tiandou Royal Academy were killed without a single survivor.

This brutal scene made them so frightened that their eyelids twitched every time they went to bed at night. They were afraid to fall asleep, for fear that they would be beheaded if they were not careful.

As for wanting to abandon their noble status now, it is also because they only want a chance to survive.

Because no one knows, and no one dares to bet, whether Qin Zheng's next butcher knife will fall on their head.

"I think it's uncertain."

"After all, he has refused to meet with us even once in the past few days."

Someone started talking again.

The scene suddenly fell into a brief silence.

Indeed, several days had passed since Qin Zheng came to Tiandou City. During these days, they had written to the emperor many times, expressing their willingness to pay any price, only wishing that Qin Zheng would summon them to an audience and let them go.

The information that was available, however, was like a drop in the ocean.

No response.

"Then... we can only hope that he is more alert."

"Otherwise, even if we can't kill him, we don't mind letting this so-called 'wise ruler' have some dirt on his face!"

"After all, if you push an ant into a corner, its anger can still cause blood to splatter five steps away."

"What's more, we are the nobles waiting for us!"

An old man spoke in a gloomy voice, his eyes filled with murderous intent. If they could talk, they would talk properly.

If they can't come to an agreement, the people in this city will be their second 'chance'!
They have never been law-abiding people.

But, in a place that none of them noticed.

A figure stood behind the pillar, and when he heard the other party's last few words, murderous intent also flashed in his eyes.

But soon, he calmed down, took a step forward, and turned into a wisp of black smoke, heading towards the palace.

【…】

In the Imperial Palace, inside the Emperor's Palace.

Qin Zheng sat calmly on the dragon throne, with one hand lowered and his head bowed.

Swah——

A stream of black smoke came straight from the window and turned into a human shape in front of Qin Zheng.

King Yama bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the people outside the palace have already gathered, and many nobles have also gathered. From their tone, it seems that they want to use their noble status in exchange for the survival of their bloodline."

"It's normal." Qin Zheng said calmly, "I haven't paid attention to them for a long time, and I've killed them like this. It clearly shows that I hate nobles. It's normal for them to do this."

"They didn't say anything else?"

At this point, Qin Zheng's eyes revealed a cold look, "For example, you want to play with me by taking the lives of the people?"

"Your Majesty is wise!" King Yama said, "They really said so. If Your Majesty agrees, they will use the people around them... to force Your Majesty to give in!"

"Haha..." Qin Zheng suddenly laughed, "This group of nobles are still the same, bullying the weak and fearing the strong."

"They will only use other things to threaten beings stronger than them."

As he spoke, he stood up and slowly walked towards the door.

"Bring that snowy night with you."

"It's time for me to ascend the throne."

“But your majesty, don’t you care about that group of nobles?” King Yama said behind him, “Although their cultivation is low and weak, if they try their best to cause chaos, considering the current situation…”

He did not finish his last words, because once chaos was created, civilians would inevitably die.

Although there was no danger to the Qin government, it was the most intolerable thing for the emperor who was about to ascend the throne.

Massacring one's own ministers and civilians in front of the emperor is a blatant slap in the face!

【…】

however.

Qin Zheng responded to him with just a calm voice.

"I have my own choice."

After saying this, he looked at the system subtitles that had already appeared in front of him.

[The Four Judges and the Sibing: Under the command of the four judges, there are messengers of judgment! ]

[Realm Seal Transformation: Soul Sect! (Heroic Spirit Projection, trapped in a permanent seal, can be unlocked through subsequent killings!)]

[Note: Evil spirits can be counted and recorded by all the underworld soldiers, and anyone within a mile can be arrested and brought to justice! ]

[Note: If killed in battle, you need to revive with 100 Soldier Talisman energies! ]

When looking at the troop ability 2, Qin Zheng's eyes gradually turned cold, and he lowered his eyes to look at the golden paper in his hand.

That was the list of nobles sent by the Contra Dean of the Four Elements Academy three days ago.

To be precise, it is a list of all the nobles in Tiandou City.

No matter big or small!

"threaten?"

"Ah--"

"What I fear least is threats!"

"It's time to remove this restless nail."
