Chapter 437 Tears (5,000 words chapter please vote!)
The parliament hall was crowded.
But there is no sound.
Everyone is looking at Wu Xiaode.
Wu Xiaode stood on the steps, smiling but not smiling. He reached out his hand without hesitation and gently hugged Qiong's waist.
"I came for the meeting, but now it seems that you have problems with me..."
"Who has a problem with me? Stand up and talk."
He held a cigar in his mouth and said slowly.
Many people withdrew their gaze.
When a person is proud of what he has done and is not shy about it, the more you attack him, the more he feels that he has done a good job.
Frankly speaking——
It is indeed enviable to kill the head of the family and replace him with a woman with both talent and beauty like Joan.
Not to mention that he also beat Xion away.
That is the legendary end——
A strange end that was born by devouring eight hundred years of outstanding members of the Entropy family and became extremely powerful!
Reason conquers all.
Even Qiong’s father, the patriarch of the Hellfire family, said:
"Being able to win my daughter's heart proves that you still have some ability. Come to Yuyan's house when you are free in the future. I want to test your strength and see how you can defeat Jingguan Mountain."
Wu Xiaode glanced at him.
This old immortal thing.
Did the Entropy family come at a moment's notice?
He even used the word "test school".
This has put the Hellfire family on top of the Entropy family.
——Do you really think you can only fight?
Wu Xiaode sneered and answered: "Testing me? In this way, can you beat Jingguanshan?"
Without waiting for the other party to answer, he added: "If I remember correctly, the patriarch of the Hell Flame family is also a member of the elders. You don't fight Jingguan Mountain yourself, but you asked me to go up and fight, and now you say I took the exam——"
"That's okay. I'll start with the Hellfire family. Everyone in your family can fight with me."
"Until I kill you all for it."
A series of angry voices sounded in the venue:
"Shut up!"
"Presumptuous!"
“I don’t know what to say!”
"Elyan of the Entropy Family, what you just said has violated the law of destruction - members of the Congress of Destruction are not allowed to kill each other!"
The atmosphere became stagnant for a while.
Everyone stared at Wu Xiaode.
If you say——
Elian really declared a challenge in public in the parliament to deal with the Hellfire family, which is absolutely not allowed.
The Book of the Law of Destruction will never allow such blatant cannibalism!
In full view of everyone, Wu Xiaode took a puff of his cigar nonchalantly.
He slowly exhaled the smoke and suddenly laughed and said:
"It's just a joke. Guys, what are you nervous about?"
"Are you really afraid that I will kill them all?"
"No, we are all good brothers. It's not too late for me to protect you. Besides, I will take the lead in killing the enemy desperately, so that you can all hide behind me and enjoy your happiness."
Qiong looked at Wu Xiaode nervously and saw him looking over with a smile.
"Where shall we sit?"
Wu Xiaode asked her.
Qiong secretly glanced at the members of the elders, and saw that they were sitting there like clay sculptures, with no expression on their faces and speechless.
Joan was a little lost.
As soon as Elian came to the council, he completely offended the entire group of elders.
The Board of Elders presides over all matters and brings together the most powerful figures in the entire council.
The elders can even call upon the Book of the Law of Destruction to issue tasks that Elyan must complete!
Elyan.
Why did he put himself into such a dead end?
Qiong felt trembling all over, and even felt a little suffocated.
Wu Xiaode felt that he had not done enough.
These bastards deliberately exposed their identities when negotiating terms with Xian, causing Xian to become murderous.
If he hadn't had the power of wishing the wall to invite the Human Emperor to come, he would have died on the spot.
Even if you don’t die, you will still shed your skin!
Do you expect yourself to look good on these old and immortal guys?
dream!
Joan didn't know this.
She took a hard breath, with a gentle and submissive smile on her face:
"Master, we should sit here."
She led Wu Xiaode and walked all the way to the long rows of seats and found two seats to sit down.
Joan quickly made up her mind and prepared to walk all the way into the dark.
At this moment, I can only support Elian!
Other members of Congress along the way carefully moved out of the way, for fear of running into Elian at all.
People gradually arrived.
The speaker responsible for presiding over the meeting began to speak:
"Okay, now let's introduce the situation."
"When the mutated terminal Jingguan Mountain caused a disturbance in the parliament, he stole the entire treasure house of the parliament bank, causing heavy losses to the parliament."
"Now, please be generous and donate enough funds to the parliament!"
After saying these words, there was an immediate uproar of dissatisfaction.
Everyone knows that the meeting is to discuss countermeasures.
But now that the treasure troves of each family have been emptied, the council's elders not only did not consider this matter, but actually wanted to spill everyone's blood!
"Quiet! Quiet!"
The speaker waved his hand for a long time, and even had to use a few spells to barely restore silence to the entire venue.
He said loudly:
"Now the Council is about to face the challenge of the Society of the Silence of All Souls."
"——This is a task assigned by the Book of the Law of Destruction. It is said to be related to the coming of heroic spirits."
"This is a severe test!"
"Only one of our two organizations, the Council of Annihilation and the Silence of All Souls Association, can survive."
"Parliament no longer has enough funds to face this serious war."
"So we first started raising money for the war -"
The speaker's squinted eyes gradually opened a crack, revealing his indifferent eyes, and gently glanced at Wu Xiaode.
His lips moved and he said the words he had been preparing for a long time:
"Let's start with the Entropy family."
Silence fell.
Every congressman who attended the meeting felt bright in their hearts.
——This is going to take action on the Entropy family!
If you donate a small amount, the Elders can summon the Book of the Law of Destruction to punish sins.
You donated a lot——
If you have money, yes, why not donate more?
Maybe the Entropy Mo family will be directly hollowed out!
Qiong sat in his seat and calmed down. He still couldn't understand Elian's attitude, but after hearing the speaker's words, he slowly came to his senses.
Elian was able to defeat "Xion", but he didn't listen to the words of the elders, and even formed a deadly feud.
There is no middle path for him.
This is a life-and-death contest!
So it is better to make your attitude clear from the very beginning and not give the other party any chance to play tricks!
She lowered her head in her seat and silently figured out the whole thing.
Elian's voice has sounded in my ears:
"I heard that the treasure trove of our Entropy Mo family has been frozen... Anyway, I will donate the entire treasure trove, which can be regarded as a contribution to the parliament."
The speaker immediately said:
"The treasure trove of the Entropy Mo family has also been stolen by Jingguan Mountain. We cannot provide any funds. We also ask the patriarch of the Entropic Mo family to come up with another sum of money."
Wu Xiaode twitched his lips.
These old foxes named the Entropy Mo family as soon as they started talking, obviously they were going to take action on themselves.
But are you afraid of them?
——The treasure troves and wealth of all your families are in my hands.
I also donated the name "Hand of Destruction".
Now, just throw your hands around.
He was about to speak when Qiong suddenly reached out and patted his arm gently.
Um?
What is Joan going to do?
Wu Xiaode was a little surprised, but saw Qiong stand up, bowed gracefully, and said with a smile:
"It seems that all the treasures of our Entropic Mo family have been stolen, but it doesn't matter. When I married from the Hell Flame family, I brought a lot of dowry with me, and I will donate it all this time."
Wu Xiaode was startled and suddenly showed admiration.
This is enough to show your attitude!
Taking out her dowry and donating it to the Council of Destruction, Joan expressed three meanings in this way of showing weakness.
First, our Entropy family doesn’t have much money anymore;
Second, for the sake of the Entropy Mo family, I donated all the money from the Hell Flame family to show that I have completely sided with the Entropy Mo family and have nothing to do with the Hell Flame family anymore!
Thirdly, a woman has donated all her dowry for the sake of her family and parliament. How dare you embarrass us?
If this is also difficult, what about others?
Are you going to wipe out all the money left by the members of Parliament?
That would make the entire World Destruction Council feel uneasy, demoralize the military, and even directly fall apart in the next war!
Is your body of elders really going to do this?
Wonderful!
Joan's hands are quite beautiful and she definitely deserves the title of mistress of her family!
The speaker frowned slightly and said warmly:
"Mother of the Entropy family, your actions are indeed worthy of appreciation from all of us, but I want to know, how much is your dowry?"
Qiong smiled and said, "Then I have to ask my father. When he prepared the dowry for me, he said that these things are the top dowry items of the entire Hell Flame family, and he will be responsible for delivering them to Xion."
"Huh? Give it to Xion? Xion is already dead!" said the speaker.
"Yes, but Xion told me before he died that my father has not sent me my dowry for hundreds of years." Joan said with a smile.
There was an uproar among the people.
Marrying a daughter without giving a dowry?
What do you think of your daughter? What do you think of the Entropy Mo family?
But having said that, the head of the Hell Flame family has many children, and each of them is just a chess piece. Qiong was not considered outstanding back then, so it is possible that she was not taken seriously.
But...
Give nothing.
In this case, it is foreseeable how difficult and embarrassing Qiong will be in the Entropy family.
No wonder she completely fell in love with Elian!
What she did was excusable!
People secretly thought.
Wu Xiaode also changed his mind.
——And the fourth.
Fourth, although this is a world where strength is respected, reputation is sometimes very important. By exposing this matter, Joan can win people's sympathy. From now on, no one will look down upon her, and they will even think that everything she has done It's all as it should be.
Anyone else would have betrayed the Hellfire family and fallen into the arms of the Entropymo family.
From now on, she can justifiably stop talking about her father!
This is also a statement of his attitude to himself in public!
Wu Xiaode glanced at her and saw that her eyes were as silky as silk, and she gently retreated from his gaze.
In the distance, the voice of the leader of the Hellfire Family sounded:
"I have already given your dowry to you Sion. What he told you was a lie to you, Joan."
The gentle look on Qiong's face disappeared, she suddenly stood up again and said sternly:
"My father, do you dare to say what you just said in front of the Book of the Law of Destruction?"
"——You have many ways to lie without being noticed, but in front of that book, you can't lie!"
"I will ask the Book of the Law of Destruction to determine whether what you said is true or false!"
The leader of the Hellfire Family had a gloomy look and did not reply for a moment, but just looked at the Speaker.
The speaker immediately said:
"Okay, this is an extremely serious war preparation meeting. How can we ask for the Book of Laws of Destruction to identify the truth and falsehood of your family's gossip?"
"The Entropy Mo family, you are just messing around and still haven't donated any funds."
"Is this your attitude towards parliament? Huh?"
When he said the last sentence, his voice had a hint of murderous intent.
Joan snorted disdainfully and placed her hand on a diamond ring.
money.
She does.
Elyan gave her a whole treasure trove of wealth.
At this time, the situation was stronger than the people, and it seemed that it was impossible to seek justice, so I had to take out the money to eliminate the disaster.
Although it’s a bit frustrating——
But in order to survive, some things have to be endured.
She was about to take out some treasures from the gem ring, but found that her hand was gently held down.
"Elyan?"
Joan asked quietly in confusion.
Wu Xiaode held her hand and fell into deep thought.
If Joan had been struggling to survive in such miserable circumstances——
Then we can understand some of her actions.
I'm afraid no woman would be able to do better.
at the moment.
I am sitting in the hall of the World-Destroying Council, watching the women of my family being bullied. Is there nothing I can do?
But what do you have?
In this parliament, I only have one name——
The hand of destruction.
Does this thing work?
Wu Xiaode stood up slowly, cleared his throat, and said:
"Everyone."
"I should be the only 'hand of destruction' in the parliament."
"I believe everyone knows that I can call upon the power of will to destroy and cast a spell that destroys everything."
"In addition, I myself also defeated Jingguan Mountain, and my strength is outstanding."
"——I have one more thing that the Council has always wanted:"
"The forging method of human figurines."
He gently pulled out a jade slip and displayed it in front of everyone.
Figurine forging method!
Everyone's breathing became a lot heavier.
In the world of "Heaven, Earth and People", it is obvious to all how powerful the guardian gods of human figures are.
Right now, this method of forging human figurines falls into the hands of Elyan!
As long as he is given time, he can forge powerful figurines one by one, making the family the strongest in the entire parliament!
The Speaker couldn't help but said:
"Elyan, your figurine forging method must be donated to——"
Wu Xiaode interrupted him without hesitation:
"I am willing to donate the forging method of human figurines to the parliament, but the condition is to ask the book of the law of destruction to come and judge whether the words of the leader of the Hell Flame family are true or false."
The Speaker was startled.
Everyone was stunned.
Paying such a high price just to know whether the head of the Yuyan family prepared a dowry for Qiong back then?
The Speaker shouted:
"Your condition is too rude. After all, for the future of the entire parliament, the forging method is necessary-"
Click.
Wu Xiaode exerted slight pressure with his five fingers, and several cracks appeared on the jade slip.
"Don't be impulsive!"
"Don't destroy it!"
"Stop!"
Everyone couldn't help but shout out.
If there must be a life-and-death battle with the Silence of All Souls Association, then obtaining enough human figurine guardian gods can be said to be the key to victory!
However, Wu Xiaode wants to destroy this jade slip that records the forging method of human figurines!
I saw Wu Xiaode's mouth slightly twitching, and he chuckled:
"I can tell you seriously that I haven't seen anything in this."
"So if this jade slip is destroyed, it is completely broken."
"It's useless to look for me, because I don't know how to forge human figurines."
His hands tightened again.
The cracks on the jade slip became deeper and deeper, and even some powder fell from the cracks.
The Speaker's heart skipped a beat.
He looked at the other members of the elders and saw everyone nodding slightly.
At this time.
The honor of a Hellfire family is not as good as the lives of all the people!
Moreover, the dowry matter is just a gossip scandal. Although it will bring disgrace to the Hell Flame family, it cannot substantially harm the family's interests.
Everyone knows how to choose!
"Is this the only condition you have? Let the Book of the Law of Destruction determine whether the words of the leader of the Hell Flame family are true or false?"
the Speaker asked.
"That's right." Wu Xiaode grinned.
"...What a farce. Well, for the sake of the entire parliament, we will grant your wish." The speaker said.
He whispered a spell.
The entire group of elders, except for the leader of the Hell Flame Family, all the other elders chanted the incantation one after another.
There was a flash of void.
The huge, dark and solemn book appeared in front of everyone.
"Please help us distinguish between true and false."
The Speaker said slowly: "Elyan, you can ask now."
Wu Xiaode said hello to the Book of Destruction:
"Hi, long time no see, my question is-"
"The leader of the Hellfire family said that he had already provided a dowry for Qiong, and all of it was given to Xion of the Entropy family."
"Is this true or false?"
The Book of the Law of Destruction fluttered gently, landed in front of the leader of the Hell Flame Family, and quietly opened it.
A line of small black fire characters then appeared on the page:
"Say it, there is no possibility of lying in front of me."
The leader of the Hell Flame Family was silent for a breath, and then he had to say:
"I offered no dowry."
There was a commotion among the crowd.
Wu Xiaode stood up directly and threw the cigar in his mouth.
"Fuck! You are marrying your daughter. Damn it. Why does Joan have a father like you?"
He cursed loudly.
The leader of the Hell Flame Family snorted coldly, his expression unchanged at all.
Compared to the real benefits, what is this little thing?
So what if you admit it?
On the other hand, he, Elyan, had to pay the real human figurine forging method for such a worthless thing.
——It’s still too emotional!
This kind of person cannot become a great person.
The Speaker kept saying:
"Okay! This matter ends here, Elyan, your forging method——"
"Here you go!" Wu Xiaode threw the jade slip out.
The jade slip slowly rotated in mid-air and fell towards the Speaker.
People watched this scene silently.
For a woman, he paid something of such amazing value.
Is it worth it?
Everyone is thinking silently in their hearts.
Wu Xiaode didn't care at all.
After all, this jade slip was originally a trap for goblins, specially designed to deceive these guys with bad intentions.
He reached out and touched Qiong's head and whispered:
"Okay, it's okay. From now on, no one can say that you are sorry for the Hellfire family."
Joan nodded silently.
She tried hard to look demure and dignified, but the tears in her eyes were like a river bursting its banks and could not be stopped at all. (End of chapter)
