Chapter 42: Battle of the West (14)
"Oriental Viscount..."
Marquis Tywin smiled and disappeared from his first arrogance.
"...As a noble, it is our duty to strictly abide by the laws and regulations to protect the country and the people. The territory of the empire is free of faith and does not strictly order the people to convert to a certain religion. The "New God Cult" uses the name of gifts to defile the "Buddha Orders" with the undead. I believe that His Highness, the Third Prince, understands the great righteousness and will never do such a thing..."
Jing Hua nodded and said, "The Marquis said it very reasonably. However, without real evidence, it seems difficult to make a judgment easily..."
Tywin was even more confident. "Oriental Wu" was well versed in the "arrogance", and the so-called "real evidence" was to bring benefits.
"It is not difficult to judge. Viscount Oriental, the prince is busy with all his life, so how can he ask about everything himself? So some slanderous ministers made some unruly actions out of their own desires..."
"A slander?"
"Yes... For example, the Florent family in Liangshuicheng, they deceived the princes by flattery and despicable methods. The conspiracy of the "New God Cult" must have something to do with them..."
Jing Hua nodded. The other party's meaning was very clear, and he was going to use the Florent family as bargaining chips to make himself and Prince White "turn a blind eye".
The third prince had conferred four viscounts in total, and the Florent family was among them. Florent was originally just a baron, controlling the area around "Liangshui City". The two surrounding small cities suddenly "emerged bandits", and all the nobles in the city died.
Baron Florent himself took action to eliminate the bandits and took two small cities into his pocket. He then divided the two small cities to two "warriors", and the "warriors" had a good face and had never appeared in "Liangshui City" before.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the "warrior" is actually the subordinate of the third prince. White used the promotion title as a bargaining chip to take two small cities under his command. With the Florent family as a testimony, other nobles would have no choice but to rebel against the prince. As for the original nobles in the two cities, they could only die in the prince's dream.
"Liangshui City" and "Xihe City" are adjacent to "Xihe City" and are an excellent choice for the expansion of the "Lion King Castle". However, Jing Hua weighs the pros and cons. The current rise of the Oriental clan is too fast, and it seems a bit inappropriate to win another battle in a short period of time.
Marquis Tywin was good at calculating. "Liu Shuicheng" had to rely on "Lion King Castle" to fight on its own, and this would inevitably offend Prince White, and the Marquis' Mansion did not suffer any loss at all.
"His Marquis, even if the Florent family is involved, it seems inappropriate to come forward by the 'Lion Castle' and does not match the 'noble tradition'..."
Tywin cursed in his heart. You, "Dongfangwu", acted unscrupulously. When did you respect the "noble tradition"? The other party clearly wanted benefits but was unwilling to take responsibility. He was really shameless.
But this is the case with "noble transactions". The Rotrek family hopes that the "Lion King Castle" will draw a clear line with the prince, and the Dongfang clan will not seek the Marquis' Mansion for the time being.
Tywin thought for a moment and answered decisively: "The Florent family did a great job of doing bad things, defiling the glory of the nobles. At that time, the 'Triumph City' will send troops to attack. Of course, as the arbitrator, the affairs of 'Liang Shui City' should be handled by the Oriental Family..."
Jing Hua nodded happily. The Marquis's Mansion agreed to come forward, so if there is a subsequent dispute, Tywin's army will have to be ahead. As for the three cities of the Florent family, they have to rely on the "Lion King Castle" to do it themselves.
The Rotrek family is one of the three giants in Xiche, and the strength of the Dongfang clan is far from that. Taking over "Liangshuicheng" is a "true letter" for Tywin, and the "Lion King Castle" is considered to join the Marquis' Mansion.
"As you wish, since it is a conspiracy of the Florent family, the gift of the 'New God Church' will be taken over by the 'Lion Castle'."
Seeing "Dongfangwu" turn to the stage, Tywin frowned slightly.
If you acquiesce the other party to swallow three cities, it seems that there is a risk of "raising a tiger as a disaster". However, the Eastern Family has developed a strong head of the family, which coincides with the many conflicts in the West, and its rise is unstoppable.
It is better to temporarily stabilize the "Lion King Castle" than to push him to the royal family. In this way, the matter of "sacrificing" the Frey family has been explained, and the Rotrek family has remained famous, so they have time to find ways to balance the Dongfang family.
"Jiguang Temple", "New God Cult" and others all looked at Marquis Tywin, and then found someone on stage alone.
Abbot Mingkong knows the most about "Dongfangwu". No one present can fight against "hatred" alone except him. Viscount Dongfang himself is not weak, and he also has "summoning zombies" and "summoning white wolf" to help him, and he may be able to defeat the undead.
The old monk waved away the novice monk next to him and looked up at the martial arts stage. "Oriental Martial Arts" also belonged to the "Old Divine Sect". If he could kill the undead, Buddhism would be better than the "New Divine Sect" this time.
Ferstein did not know "Dongfangwu". The monks and nobles around him looked bad and had nowhere to ask for information. However, before the "New God Cult", he had evaluated the strength of "Triumph City", and no one around should be able to deal with "hatred". Therefore, the paladin and the priest were very calm, and some even bet on Jing Hua's identity.
In full view of everyone, Jing Hua came to the martial arts stage. He did not rush to enter the stage, but walked around the high platform.
In addition to the "Cross Star Moon" mark on the carriage baffle, there are also some weird runes and pictures, which are very similar to the "Xuanwen" in the Guanyue Continent. The "New God Cult" magic has obvious "yang" characteristics, and a simple magic circle is built with the help of the baffle, trapping the undead in it.
After checking for a long time, Jing Hua stepped onto the platform. He was trapped for a long time and was already "hungry and thirsty".
Its intelligence is very low, with only a vague emotional fluctuation, and the only thing left is the desire for flesh and blood. The desire is extremely strong, so that it senses the creatures approaching and immediately raises its sickle and rushes over.
"Swish..."
"Haughter" once again used strange steps, and he flashed toward Jing Hua, and the sickle slashed from top to bottom.
“Bao…”
Jing Hua turned sideways slightly, and his sickle hit the table with his shirt against the table, making a loud noise. He exerted force on his legs, jumped high, and immediately level with his "hatred" head.
Everyone in the audience was stunned. Viscount Oriental did not summon the followers or drove wild animals, and actually dealt with "hatred" empty-handedly. Could it be that the undead attacked too quickly and the viscount's minister couldn't react?
Before they could figure it out, a ball of light burst out from the palm of "Dongfang Wu" and hit the head of "hatred".
"boom......"
"Vomit...Vomit..."
"Hate" let out a shocking roar, and "Ding" took a few steps back. Half of its head, neck and body were charred by lightning.
"Dang..."
The left arm of the undead was affected, and the iron hook fell off his hand and fell to the ground. The "hatred" limbs were swaying, and he did not dare to step forward for a moment. He could only wave his sickle angrily and roar.
"vomit......"
The "New God Cult" people were stunned. They opened their mouths wide and could not close them for a long time.
What is this? Thunder magic? How can magic be cast like this? Where is the wand? Where is the scroll? Doesn’t the magician need to chant spells?
Ferstein's eyes were circling, and he had to put down his figure and inquire about the identity of the "magic" on the stage from "Jiguang Temple".
