I was hiding from gods and demons at the beginning, but it turned out that I was the boss

In recent years, Duke Morton had assigned family affairs to his uncles and family elders due to his poor health. However, most of them were extravagant and unrestrained, and the development of the territory was seriously lagging behind.

After Dougal came to power, he wanted to rectify the territory, but was restricted by his elders.

It is easy to take in the benefits, but difficult to spit them out. The tribesmen are in trouble everywhere and hold on to their rights.

Although he is the lord of a domain and the head of a family, his real power is limited, and he is completely different from lords like Lorenzo, Bai Jingyan, and Aiden.

The key is that he is too young and has limited cultivation and abilities.

Thinking of this, his face became paler and paler, and his clenched fists trembled slightly.

Seeing this, Meili consoled her: "It's not my brother's fault. The decline of a big family cannot be controlled by one or two people."

Dougal lowered his head, "I'm still incompetent..."

Meili took his hand and said slowly: "His Highness thinks you are a capable person, but you are dragged down by the incompetent clan members, so you asked me to test your intentions."

Dougal raised his head and looked at Meili with complex eyes.

"But this is tantamount to asking me to abandon my family and care about the small family at the expense of everyone else. We will stand on the opposite side of the great nobles."

Meili said: "Actually, someone has done this a long time ago. Lorenzo suppressed the incompetent small and medium-sized nobles in the territory many years ago. Now, the big families that Medes can continue are all truly powerful, so they have developed very good."

Dougal nodded. The big nobles knew Medes' situation well. Lorenzo started to eliminate nobles from the bottom, and those who remained over the years were the elites.

"I understand. I will consider talking to His Highness directly for a while."

……

After seeing her brother off, Meili went to the bedroom.

Tasriel's arms and body were wrapped in bandages and he was fast asleep. With his guard down, he lost his sharpness and looked handsome and harmless.

Meili called softly: "Your Highness, it's past one o'clock. We will attend the funeral later."

Tasril slowly opened his bloodshot eyes and looked at Meili with a worried expression, "It will be afternoon so soon."

"Well, although it's very close, we have to make some preparations." Mei Li said.

Tasril stretched his body and said disdainfully: "Everyone is dead, so what's the point of a grand ceremony..."

After saying that, he pulled Mei Li onto the bed and took off her light purple gauze skirt...

"Have you talked to Dougal?"

Mei Li gasped and hummed slightly.

After Tasriel finished, the two quickly changed into suitable clothes and took a carriage to Hiran Cathedral surrounded by escorts and servants.

On the carriage, Taslier looked silently at the dark crowd outside the window.

Many people now changed into black clothes and stood in front of the huge image mirror in the roadside square, waiting for the ceremony to begin.

Mei Li looked at Tasril from time to time.

Although he was a little surprised when she told him Qingtian and Yina's secret in the morning, he didn't express any specific opinions. He just sneered for a while and went to the bedroom to rest...

She wasn't sure what Tasril was thinking and whether he would continue to embarrass Yina.

"What? Worried about your sister?"

Tasril turned his gaze back, "Instead of worrying about her, you should pray for a sunny day and surrender to me soon, otherwise Miss Yina's various functions will decline more as time goes by."

Meili's face turned pale after hearing this.

Tasril still didn’t let them go...

"Do you think I'm scared because she's a ghost?" Taslier curled his lips, "What I'm interested in is her interesting soul. Of course, it's even better if she has a beautiful body."

Having said this, he laughed coldly for a while and said to himself:

"Pretend to be weak, pretend to be in pain, pretend to be ruthless, pretend to be powerless..."

"It's such a true love that I even used my trump card."

Meili listened blankly, not understanding what he was talking about...

Tasril didn't care whether she understood or not, he was not in a good mood.

Qing Tian has the dark attribute and can transfer souls, so one of the two people she risked his life to save might have the soul of Lorenzo...

The reason why she went to the hospital was probably to find a suitable body container for Lorenzo...

It's really an unexpected fact.

So the question is, which one is the reborn Lorenzo?

Is it an aging guard or a young priest?

Oh, it’s not hard to choose.

Soon the carriage entered Hiran Cathedral, and when the two of them entered the hall, it was already two o'clock.

It's so late, I don't have to speak before the ceremony...

Sumujie curled his lips, hinting to the band to play music, and brought in three crystal coffins.

After the coffin was in place, the bell rang.

Dang——dang——dang——

There are ninety-nine and eighty-one chimes in total, and the sound of the bell is deep and distant, making people feel calm.

As the bells of the imperial capital rang, death knells rang across the empire.

At this moment, the whole Lanze was silent as the bell sounded.

Tasril stood upright in the middle of the viewing platform, looking up at the tall goddess statue in front of him with a sarcastic expression.

Is it the incarnation of a goddess or a contaminated witch?

Morton Yilan has joined the Divine Chosen Group, so he cannot be a demon unless he is later contaminated, and the only ones in Lanze who can do this are the forest gods.

Been demonized by Bai Jingyan?

No wonder it is so confusing.

I wonder what kind of punishment there will be for blasphemy...

Sumujie seemed to be in silence with his head lowered, but he kept glancing at Tasril.

Your Highness is really disrespectful to your father. Besides, he looks at the statue in a weird way.

It’s not because the statue is too ugly, right?

Thinking of the past when Su Mucheng arbitrarily changed the statue of the goddess in the imperial capital to look like this, Su Mujie was also very tired.

Such a majestic, majestic and broad-minded statue of the goddess made it difficult for him to enter the scene every time he held a prayer ceremony with his eyes open.

So most of the time he has his eyes closed or his head down.

If His Highness is really unhappy, you should find a way to change the statue back to its original appearance...

At any rate, he now has half a foot in the royal family camp.

From the moment he told His Highness the Third Prince that Sunny took Lorenzo to the Southern Hospital, he fell in love with the royal family.

It's not that he is not afraid of Li Qi, but that he doesn't want to lose everything he has now, and even wants to have more.

Su Mucheng gave him status and taught him how to practice and handle academic affairs, but over the years he also expressed his gratitude with his ability, sincerity and humility.

Especially after Su Mucheng became emotionally unstable, he managed the state religion properly and took care of his life.

The development of the state religion cannot be separated from Su Mucheng, and it is also inseparable from him Su Mujie.

So it becomes increasingly unbearable for him to kneel at the feet of others, even if that person may be a god...

Sumujie's usually gentle and worldly face showed a hint of ferocity.

So what about the goddess? How much does she care about the suffering of so many people every day?

Su Mucheng was willing to give up everything and worship under her dress, but Su Mucheng was not willing to accept it.

He still remembers why he joined the Chosen all those years ago.

It was because I heard that Saint Rosie was a womanizer, and the priest she was interested in could quickly gain promotion and power.

And he, Sumujie, an inconspicuous and handsome young man from the Sumu clan, was naturally fascinated.

So he secretly participated in the selection of the Divine Chosen Group behind the back of his relatives from the main clan. Unexpectedly, he was actually detected to have high potential in the space system...

So even if he didn't capture Luo Xi, he would still be happy knowing that Su Mucheng didn't rise to the position based on male lust, because his life had changed for the better.

It is better to seek God than to seek oneself. He worships God in order to have a better self.

Therefore, he did not want to take the path Li Qi chose.

He has worked hard enough to amaze the world.

Sumujie, who has been secretly promoted to the rank of divine general, will not give up everything to others.

Dang——dang——dang——

When the bells ended, people seemed to return to reality from a state of emptiness.
