Chapter 873: Slapping Jiu Xuanji in the Imperial Court
Purple Cat rolled his eyes and didn’t want to talk anymore. His own inherited magical power was not as high as his. Now that the flame was about to transform, it made the cat envious.
He raised his palm and the Phoenix Divine Fire rushed out.
Zhang Ronghua controlled the Heaven Burning Hellfire to devour it. After a while, the transformation was perfect. Just like what was said, its power increased by 30%, and it had all the characteristics of the Phoenix Divine Fire.
He looked at it and nodded in satisfaction. He patted Purple Cat’s head and said,” You’ve been waiting, haven’t you?”
He waved his sleeves.
The Heaven-Burning Hellfire rushed out and transformed into a three-meter-long flame. It enveloped the Fire Qilin’s corpse and began to purify it, leaving only its essence.
By the time it ended, there was only one-tenth of his strength left.
“Eat!” Zhang Ronghua put away the Heaven Burning Hellfire.
The purple cat jumped down from the table and its light of true spirit circulated, growing to a size of three meters. It swallowed the beast and returned to its original appearance before lying on the ground to refine it.
He was already familiar with the place, so there was no need to worry.
He brewed a pot of red lotus grape tea and took out a martial technique book on Righteousness. He drank tea while reading it.
He finished a pot of tea.
Purple Cat refined the Fire Qilin and broke through to the fifth level of the Great Grandmaster Realm.
She opened her eyes and jumped up from the ground, cuddling her head with Zhang Ronghua’s palm intimately.
“It’s alright.”
He asked again,
“How is your cultivation of the Five Elements Illusionary Spirit Technique?”
“I’m about to break through to the second realm,” Purple Cat said.
“Go cultivate!”
After it left, Zhang Ronghua looked at the sky. There was still about an hour before the court session. He did not sleep again and practiced all his cultivation three times.
Talent was one thing, but hard work was also indispensable.
It rained heavily for a day and a night. As the court session approached, the rain gradually lessened. In the end, it stopped.
Purple Extreme Hall.
The officials stepped on the wet ground and entered the hall one after another according to their status. As if they had agreed, they controlled their voices and did not make a sound.
More than half of the people were already standing in the huge palace.
Their faces were tense and their gazes were cold. Some of them clenched their hands tightly under their official robes, suppressing their anger. The atmosphere was heavy and murderous, far more than the previous court meetings.
From time to time, he would look at Jiu Xuanji, who was in the front row, wishing he could tear him apart.
Zhang Ronghua brought Ding Yi in from the side door on the left. He casually scanned the area and knew what was going on. In addition, Ding Yi had said that although the demons and ghosts that went berserk last night were suppressed, many people suffered and even more industries were destroyed. It seemed like they did it on purpose.
The real owners of these properties were mostly the officials present.
In doing business in the capital, other than the ways of the world, power was indispensable. There was no one behind him. Even if he opened an ordinary restaurant, there would be people looking for trouble. They were either constables or hoodlums.
The culprit behind all of this was the True Dragon Palace!
They stood in the queue, looking down at their noses and mouths, waiting for the show to begin.
After a while.
Eunuch Xiao came in with two eunuchs and closed the Purple Extreme Gate and the two side doors. Seemingly knowing that the main show was about to begin, everyone held their heads high and puffed out their chests. Their spirits changed, and they were filled with enthusiasm.
Zhang Ronghua noticed the Xia Emperor sitting down on the dragon throne. Du Chengming raised his head and was about to step out with his right foot, as if he wanted to impeach him. He was puzzled. Could it be that one of his trusted aides was among the people who died last night?
“If there’s anything, report to me. If there’s nothing else, withdraw!” Wei Shang’s voice sounded.
As expected!
Du Chengming walked out with majestic steps. He bowed with his hands folded in front. His cold voice sounded.” This old minister has something to report!”
He turned around and glared at Jiu Xuanji. His eyes were cold and his words were full of meaning.
” The True Dragon Palace deliberately let the demons loose. They destroyed countless properties and killed many people, including the soldiers of the Fifth Division of City Defense!”
As a lackey, Bai Yichang followed closely behind.
Almost one-third of the Imperial Censorate’s people stood out. F * ck, all kinds of nasty words came out of his mouth. The devouring liquid flew everywhere as he pointed at Jiu Xuanji.
Zhang Ronghua’s expression did not change. This was the first time he had seen Du Chengming’s terrifying influence. Thinking about it, it made sense. His foundation had been solid for so many years, and he had climbed up from a young censor. It was not strange for him to have such a scene.
At the same time, he also understood why the Emperor had transferred him to the Imperial Censorate. The Imperial Censorate, the Supreme Court, and other important departments were on the same level as the six ministries. Such a large department was almost in the hands of Du Chengming. He held the power of impeachment and supervision. No one would let him do nothing.
It seemed that the remaining two fires had to burn more vigorously.
He was also very curious about the person behind Du Chengming.
An unexpected person also stepped forward. Left Vice Censor Li Yuliang, second only to Du Chengming, was one of the three big shots of the Imperial Censorate. He had a lot of authority. After bowing, he walked to Jiu Xuanji and stopped.
Their eyes met.
Jiu Xuanji’s face was cold and expressionless. His eyes were dark and filled with fear. However, Li Yuliang acted as if he didn’t see it. His face was filled with anger. He did something unexpected. He slapped Jiu Xuanji’s face with a big bag and used the strength to eat his face. The loud slap echoed in the hall.
The hearts of all the officials trembled, and some of their eyelids twitched very quickly. They secretly thought that they had broken the rule of never taking action in the imperial court.
There were countless ways for Jiu Xuanji to dodge. The moment Li Yuliang raised his hand, he had to take a step back. Out of the corner of his eye, he subconsciously glanced up. Seeing the Emperor’s cold gaze, his heart trembled. He reacted quickly. Although he didn’t know why, he couldn’t dodge. Otherwise, the consequences would be very serious. He would have to take this slap!
