Master of Strange Dao

Chapter 1511 - 403: The Dean's Threat, Little Black's Advance (5k)

Of course, Zhang couldn't fully understand what Yu Ziqing was specifically referring to, but he understood that the trouble here was more or less resolved.As for that strange and ferocious Monster from earlier, since it was ridden out by our own emperor and then set free, it shouldn't be a problem. I can slowly ask about it later.

Yu Ziqing gazed into the distance; once the Xiezhi went off to handle its own affairs, the matter was considered resolved.

Just as the Great Fallen Devil said, some things can never be completely cut off, nor can they be entirely prevented.

The best one can do is create an environment where all sorts of chaotic things occur as little as possible.

From the perspective of Emperor Dui, it's about ensuring peace and prosperity, having a legal system as a reference, and establishing rules that can operate long-term and adjust based on real situations.

In this process, constraints are necessary, and there needs to be someone to play the bad guy and deterrent.

Even the best Law Code is still enforced by people holding it.

As long as it's people, there will always be room for negotiation.

So, didn't the Great Fallen Devil want to be this scapegoat? Isn't that perfect?

He turned into a Divine Beast, possessing a rank, undying and indestructible, needing nobody's favor. His existence is like a sword hanging over those who deserve to be thrown into the pit.

Yu Ziqing thought of the Jiachen City's annual beheading season frenzy, pondering that the people of Dadui might welcome the emergence of such a Divine Beast.

Even if this Divine Beast devours people directly, I'm afraid few would care.

Yu Ziqing could even imagine the scene once the story spread, with the artistic style of Dadui turning into this.

Going out in the morning to buy vegetables, seeing a terrifying Xiezhi descending at the entrance of the county government office, with the magistrate floating out, scared into a mess, yet still devoured by the Xiezhi in one gulp.

Then a group of people, so thrilled that they forget about eating, and an artist gets carried out to do a painting on the spot. When leaving, they even chisel out a piece of bluestone stepped on by the Xiezhi to take home.

Later, when their grandchildren are born, they can brag about it, saying they were at the scene, witnessing the Divine Beast descending and devouring the corrupt official of that time.

And a local legend would remain, adding a tourist attraction and enhancing cultural depth.

By the way, it could also serve to intimidate those who come after.

After all, these tales are true.

The ones devoured would undoubtedly be infamous in the county chronicles for eternity.

Well, looking back, let's see who the fortunate one is to be the first considered filth and devoured by the Xiezhi, take inspiration from it, adapt it into a true story, and add it to the Jade Tablet's promotion.

"Your Majesty..."

Zhang's voice pulled Yu Ziqing back from his wandering thoughts.

Before Zhang could speak, Yu Ziqing, pulling both Zhang and Jia Shisi along, said with a mix of emotion.

"Zhang, Shisi, let me tell you, this time was actually a bit dangerous.

If that creature hadn't gotten a bit of an advantage and then gotten carried away...

Getting carried away would mean being too arrogant, too conceited.

So at that time, I thought, if I return, I must tell you about it.

Whether it's the Riddler or people from the court, never relax and start celebrating when a task is only half done.

For that is the Dao to Death..."

Upon hearing this, Zhang listened intently, realizing that their own emperor was learning from experiences. Just escaping danger and already thinking about Dadui, Zhang wanted to say something but didn't know how to express it.

Though Jia Shisi listened seriously, agreeing that what their emperor said was right. Those little guys should have some real combat training, take beatings a few times first, to avoid losing their lives in the future.

Certainly, this kind of task should be discussed later with Jia Shiwu, who was much better at arranging such things, and it's a way to establish Jia Shiwu's authority.

Yu Ziqing, taking Zhang and Jia Shisi along, continued chatting as they headed towards Jiachen City.

As they approached Jiachen City, Zhang realized, giving Jia Shisi a look. The things they had previously discussed needed to be presented together, but Jia Shisi was already being led away, happily chatting with their emperor.

Talking about how to make newcomers or juniors suffer more is an increasingly enjoyable conversation, taking them further off track.

Upon entering Jiachen City, Yu Ziqing waved to Zhang and Jia Shisi.

"I have other tasks, remember what I just told you, follow-up still needs to be addressed.

Don't let the appearance of the Xiezhi cause any panic or unnecessary confrontations.

This matter is very important and must be dealt with immediately.

And remember all the other matters I mentioned earlier."

After giving instructions, Yu Ziqing strode towards the small temple of the Yang-destroying Devil.

Zhang opened his mouth, wanting to speak but unable to, finally sighing helplessly, giving Jia Shisi a glare.

"I'll handle this first..."

Jia Shisi looked at Zhang's puffing and eye-rolling expression, slightly confused.

"Why are you glaring at me? What did I do?"

Jia Shisi didn't think much, transforming into a Divine Light and disappearing, promptly going to chat with Song.

That's all valuable experience, which he had heard about—the Jinlan Mountain's mentoring of juniors is incredibly skillful.

Over the years, everyone who traveled from Jinlan Mountain, each one counted as tough, indeed.

You can hardly find anyone among the Riddlers who, after having more than half their bones broken, remained silent and even continued running away.
