The purple-robed delinquents acted very calmly and did not seem to have any intention of resisting Zhao Xun's orders. At least that's how it seemed on the surface.

Maybe they got the news secretly and suppressed their emotions deliberately.

Or is it a discovery of conscience?

Of course, Zhao Xun felt that the possibility of the latter was extremely slim.

Because these people may really have no conscience.

Now that the matter was at this point, Zhao Xun naturally had no need to create any more complications, so he ordered all the bad guys to conduct a city-wide search according to the pre-assigned areas to ensure that nothing was missed.

The Chang'an City Formation must have been damaged in more than one place. All bad spots must be checked out and repaired as quickly as possible.

A war was imminent, and Zhao Xun didn't want his backyard to catch fire as soon as the war started.

This is not only for the court, but also for the people of the whole city, for the two million living people.

Once the city is broken, Zhao Xun is very clear about the consequences.

The number of criminals is quite considerable, and the inspections are quite fast.

It only took them three days to look through Chang'an City and found that there were a total of twenty-three bad spots, and an additional eighteen spots were also in danger of being damaged.

This further confirmed Zhao Xun’s inference.

The destruction of so many places in a large formation is undoubtedly man-made.

It seems that there are quite a lot of demon sect remnants lurking in Chang'an City.

"It is not easy to repair these damaged nodes one by one."

Finding the damaged nodes is only the first step. The next more important thing is to repair these damaged nodes.

If the repair cannot be completed as soon as possible, the previous work will be in vain.

And even so, Zhao Xun still had to order the bad guys to conduct a second inspection, a third inspection, and the cycle of inspections continued.

As long as there are remnants of the Demon Sect in Chang'an City, we must not relax, not even for a moment.

"Brother Mingyun, the brothers have been quite critical recently."

Wangcai seized the opportunity and warned Zhao Xun.

Now he has become Zhao Xun's direct descendant, and in the eyes of outsiders, he is Zhao Xun's right-hand man.

Seek his own government in his position.

Since he has such great wealth, it is natural for him to fulfill his responsibilities as a good brother.

"What did they say?"

"I didn't say anything particularly excessive. It was just to compare with Mr. Feng when I was here."

Wangcai spread his hands and said.

Zhao Xun only felt funny in his heart.

Since ancient times, people have always worried about inequality rather than scarcity, but Zhao Xun truly treated everyone equally.

Even Zhao Xun himself joined the front line and conducted inspections personally.

So what else do they have to complain about?

"What was it like when Master Feng was here?"

Zhao Xun really wanted to hear what the differences were between the two periods.

"this"

Wangcai seemed a little embarrassed for a while.

"But it doesn't matter."

Naturally, there is nothing to worry about with a good brother. Wangcai hesitated for a moment and gritted his teeth: "Actually, there is no difference in essence. It's just that Mr. Feng has been a bad handsome man for a long time and has a high prestige. Everyone is used to it.

In order to do things according to his orders. And brother Mingyun, you just took over, and you are still an agent. It is difficult to establish your prestige all of a sudden. Brothers, if you can't turn around, you will naturally feel a little uncomfortable. In fact, as long as you give

They'll be able to figure it out on their own if they take some time."

Wangcai's words are on point, and Zhao Xun still agrees with this.

Being an official is actually quite an art, and it's not just something you want to do well.

The most important one is to raise hope.

If you want to be a good official, it is very important to have enough prestige.

And it takes time to raise hope. Without the accumulation of time, it is impossible to make people admire you from the bottom of their hearts.

This point is most vividly reflected in the emperor.

The emperor is the highest ruler in this secular world and is essentially an official.

Otherwise, Emperor Zhao and Song would not call themselves officials.

The emperor also needs to raise his hopes.

When a new king has just ascended the throne, his power is usually not very stable.

Because all parties need to re-divide their interests. Those with vested interests are unwilling to spit out the benefits they have taken into their mouths, while the emerging powerful want to seize as much territory as possible and grab benefits.

A violent conflict will break out between the two.

As a new king who has just ascended the throne, neither his political skills nor his prestige are likely to be able to suppress these ministers.

No one can build up his prestige in three to five years. Even the emperor is just a puppet on strings, like a puppet.

And those guys who have been emperors for more than ten years are all Lao Yinbi, and their level of political power and city government have improved a lot.

In this case, it is natural to suppress those so-called powerful ministers.

The situation Zhao Xun is facing now is actually not much different from that of Emperor Xianlong.

There are three things a new official should do when he takes office, and these three things must be burned no matter what.

Whether he is willing or unwilling, he must show enough courage to everyone. Only in this way can he declare his authority to everyone.

The spell itself is a way of operating breath.

This is the way the High Priest of the Demon Sect views the practice of this world.

Therefore, in his eyes, there is no mysterious magic. What everyone competes with is the ability to operate the breath.

Maybe some people operate better and some people operate worse.

There will be some subtle differences in techniques, which leads to differences in categories.

The Demon Sect's method is simple and crude, forcibly absorbing the energy of heaven and earth into the body, which is equivalent to using oneself as a container.

The higher the cultivation level of the Demon Sect practitioner, the more vitality of heaven and earth can be absorbed.

Take the High Priest of the Demon Sect as an example. If he absorbs the vitality of heaven and earth with all his strength, the vitality within a ten-mile radius of Chang'an City can be absorbed.

In fact, since arriving near Chang'an City, the High Priest of the Demon Sect began to absorb vitality.

It's just that it's not so violent and quick, but step by step and slowly planned.

In this way, the changes in the vitality of heaven and earth will not be too obvious, and those big-name practitioners will not react in a short time.

By the time they reacted, the High Priest of the Demon Sect had already absorbed most of their vitality.

This was the most important reason why he delayed ordering the siege.

Waiting for the Allied Forces is certainly one of the reasons, but the proportion is not that large.

Although the current level of cultivation of the High Priest of the Demon Sect has reached Super Grade, there is still a certain gap between him and the Mountain Chief of the Academy.

If you don't absorb the vitality of heaven and earth into your body for expansion, there is almost no chance of winning in a one-on-one duel with the Demon Sect's high priest.

But after absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth into the body, the situation is completely different.

The magic power of the High Priest of the Demon Sect can be greatly improved, and his strength has more than doubled.

In this way, he would have the strength to fight against the mountain chief.

When necessary, the high priest of the Demon Sect can compete with the mountain chief.

Even if you can't win, you won't suffer too much and you can escape unscathed.

Of course, right now, the High Priest of the Demon Sect is more concerned about his cooperation with the East Vietnamese Sword Saint Wei Wuji.

When the High Priest of the Demon Sect saw with his own eyes the peerless Martial Saint who claimed to be the second best in the world, he was finally able to let go of his hanging heart.

With Wei Wuji, a "neutral party" on the scene, their chances of winning can be increased by at least 20%.

"The Sword Master is finally here."

In the big tent, the High Priest of the Demon Sect said leisurely.

"Isn't it too late?"

"Of course it's not too late, as long as you come it will be good."

The High Priest of the Demon Sect narrowed his eyes, his eyes filled with pride.
