! What right does he have!"At this moment, Li Yinhu's face was contorted by hatred, with almost no trace of humanity left.Looking at Li Yinhu who seemed almost insane, Zhao Xuanji said indifferently,...Chapter 1743: Wildfire

Xu Wei's answer is a typical warrior's mentality.

Li Chen smiled when he heard this.

He not only didn't oppose it, but also agreed and said: "That's right, all uprisings must be suppressed by force. Not only that, but they must be severely punished with the utmost ruthlessness. Those who instigate them should be killed, even if it means killing a group of innocent people and letting blood flow like rivers. If you hesitate and show mercy at the time of the uprising, the subsequent casualties and losses will be far greater."

"The magistrate of Yulin Prefecture... is either a bold and reckless man, or a cunning and treacherous official."

Xu Wei saw Li Chen come and became interested. He asked, "Your Highness, do you want to summon him for questioning"

"No need."

Li Chen shook his head and said, "Important matters come first, let's go take care of business."

Xu Wei responded with a sound and immediately took the lead.

Passing through Yulin Prefecture's main city, heading north and walking for about ten miles, Li Chen arrived at the destination under Xu Wei's lead.

"Cangjian Mountain Villa."

Li Chen looked up at the imposing mountain villa sign that looked like a miniature town. He turned his head and asked, "Is Jian Xin here"

Xu Wei nodded and said, "Indeed, it's here. The Cangjian Mountain Villa was originally a Jianghu sect, and its scale in Gansu and Shaanxi was considered quite large. Therefore, it had set up such a large industry, but now it is the headquarters of the White Lotus Sect in Gansu and Shaanxi."

Looking at the group of burly martial artists standing at the entrance of Cangjian Villa in the distance, Li Chen let out a cold snort. As the ruler of this empire, Li Chen most disliked these martial artists.

One by one, they all shrink back and become turtles when the country is in danger, but on weekdays, they fight and kill behind the lines. No political system or court would want these people around.

At this very moment, the gates of Cangjian Mountain Villa suddenly swung open, and a distinguished middle-aged man walked out from within.

Under the respectful bows of those ordinary disciples, the middle-aged man seemed to have singled out Li Chen and walked straight towards him.

"Esteemed guest, the Master summons you."

Li Chen narrowed his eyes and asked, not surprised, "Did Jian Xin know I came"

"That middle-aged man said respectfully, 'I was ordered by the Lord Master to come and welcome our honored guest.'"

"Lead the way," Li Chen said calmly.

That middle-aged man didn't mind Li Chen's indifferent attitude and led the way ahead of him.

Upon entering the Cangjian Mountain Villa, Li Chen was astonished by what he saw.

Within the vast Cangjian Mountain Villa, there are intricately carved beams and painted pillars, with lavish decorations.

Most importantly, Li Chen saw here a huge number of people praying.

And many commoners, appear to be living within the Jianjian Mountain Villa.

If Li Chen hadn't known this was a martial arts sect, a stronghold of the White Lotus Sect, he almost thought he had come to a gathering point for peasant migrations.

"The tenets of our White Lotus sect are to save all those suffering in the world, and these common people are the ones who have fallen into the sea of suffering."

The middle-aged man leading the way said with a hint of pride: "Now that I teach here, countless believers come to pray every day. Those who are destined can even live in the Zangjian Mountain Villa and become disciples. Even those outside will have our soup kitchens where anyone can take food for free."

Li Chen asked, “Then what counts as having fate”

The middle-aged man replied, “Of course it's to incense the temple and pledge allegiance to my teachings.”

"No wonder that in times of turmoil, your White Lotus Sect is like weeds, impossible to eradicate."

Li Chen's one sentence instantly chilled the atmosphere.Chapter 1294: Jackals, Hunting Dogs, and Tigers
