Chapter 425: The Hat of Forgiveness

Translator: Pika

An emperor wasn’t an ordinary person, after all In many instances, he could not act on his own interests

With his strength, he was considered the number one cultivator in the world This, paired with the authority that he wielded as emperor, should have made it easy for him to eliminate the Chu clan and claim their salt and iron resources for hi, who tried to employ all sorts of schemes to cause the Chu clan to collapse froonize the Chu clan precisely because he required a justifiable reason

Such a reason would be enough to convince the ent people within the court would still realize as going on These were the conventional rules of the court

Without this, everyone would begin to question his actions Once that happened, then the very foundation of his dynasty would be shaken

Even if you’re strong enough to overwhelm anyone, ould happen to your posterity? What about the future of the nation?

That hy Sang Hong was extremely confused From what he knew about the emperor, he didn’t think that His Majesty would be so rash as to do so so unwise, and incur the criticism of the people He would never have bothered to send him here otherwise

He could only think of one reason for this, which was that Zu An was extremely important to the emperor His importance not only exceeded the Chu clan’s, it even exceeded anything else he could possibly iine That alone could make His Majesty lose his composure like this

“Just what did that kid steal fro’s accusation with disdain at first, but he was starting to become more andQian was completely stunned He finally understood why his father was so scared of the Eh they were only at the fifth or sixth rank

However, he quickly realized what thisfor us? Now that the eht not punish us as severely, right?”

Sang Hong said with a bitter smile, “If only it were that simple After all, the one ants us dead isn’t the e Qian was dumbfounded He i didn’t reply His face was a ht Not only would it be pointless to tell his son, it ht even cause his e, Zheng Dan overheard their conversation Her ten fingers gripped the bars tightly, her face riddled orry “Ah Zu”

Zu An’s face had drained of all color The contents of that imperial edict had been seen by everyone in the entire city, and he was no exception

He felt coht that the emperor had displayed Even the most elaborate of schemes were practically useless in the face of such a th He didn’t see any way out of this situation at all

Mi Li couldn’t help but say with a sigh, “I really don’t knohat to say Why are you so good at bringing disaster on yourself? You’ve et on the bad side of so ht about her soul contract with him Just how many times had they wound up in such a situation?

This kid’s strength was clearly not that high, yet he soer than hi sis e for aif I can beat an enemy that you yourself provoked?”

Zu An said, “Aren’t we in the same boat here? If I die, you’ll be screwed as well!”

“I et it Tough luck! Just accept your death peacefully,” Mi Li replied in a huff

Zu An stared at her, speechless

Sis, can you please not be so direct?

Mi Li was curious about so else “You weren’t even this scared when you faced me back then Was it because I was too pretty, and so you didn’t findsis erownaroundher How could this be considered a sihts back then, and he couldn’t have cared less about how high her cultivation was What the heck was he supposed to do against the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty?!

Mi Li wasn’t interested in finding out his answer anyway “To be honest, there’s no reason for you to be so worried Just pick a ht not even be able to find you Once you finish cultivating your Phoenix Nirvana Sutra and Priin Sutra, there will come a day when you wouldn’t need to be afraid of the e will that take?”

Mi Li looked at hiuidance, you’ll be done within eight hundred years hell, if you are fast, even five hundred years would probably be enough”

Zu An was less than co aside the question of whether or not he could even live for that long, what sort of less life would he lead if he hid in a damned mountain for a few centuries?

Mi Li yawned and stretched her body lazily “I’ to sleep Take care!”

With that, she vanished

Zu An had to ad this wo sis so irresponsible? Was she really going to leave just like that?
