Chapter 261 Sleepless Night
After Su Ren left, the originally silent hall immediately became noisy.
Looking at the corpses scattered on the ground outside the hall, everyone felt terrified.
Su Ren really exposed the truth.
Let’s not talk about why he possesses such terrifying strength, let’s just talk about the people who died outside.
This news would cause a shock to the world if it were leaked.
How could Su Ren dare to leave like nothing happened? He even said he was going back to sleep.
They will definitely not be able to sleep tonight. The impact of this incident is definitely no less than that of this trial competition.
"Alright, everyone, be quiet!"
Wang Changjun roared, shocking everyone, and then ordered his men to carry the bodies outside in and close the door to the hall.
Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but wonder again what Wang Changjun was going to do.
Before Su Ren left, he greeted Wang Changjun alone, which shows that the two men had known each other for a long time.
"Minister Wang, what do you mean? Why are you closing the door?"
"Yeah, why are you locking us up if you're not going after Su Ren?"
Wang Changjun looked at the people in the hall and raised his hand, then explained loudly:
"Please don't misunderstand me. This is a serious matter and there is no room for error."
"The Gu, Nangong, and Cao families are all powerful families. If this matter is leaked now, we can't proceed with this trial."
"Now I would like to ask you to keep your mouth shut about this matter, do whatever you need to do tomorrow, and pretend that nothing happened."
When Wang Changjun said this, the whole audience was shocked!
"Are you shielding Su Ren?"
"What on earth do the authorities want to do? Why don't they care about this?"
"The officials are probably afraid of Su Ren's strength. After all, Gu Jianfeng is dead. Who in this mountain can be Su Ren's opponent?"
Everyone kept talking, and the hall suddenly became chaotic again.
"You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want!"
"What does this have to do with Su Ren? The younger generations of the three major families plotted to assassinate Su Ren but failed, and Su Ren killed them instead."
"Gu Jianfeng and Nangong Wentian attacked a junior, but died due to their lack of strength. This is the reality tonight!"
At this point, Wang Changjun changed the subject and said coldly:
"If I find out that there are other voices coming out, don't blame me for being rude!"
"Everyone present here is a talented person. I don't think it's possible that you don't understand what I'm saying, right?"
"Of course, I still hope that you can keep your mouth shut. If you have to, you can tell others the facts I just said."
When something like this happens, it's impossible for the three major families not to send people to investigate.
It is basically impossible to keep these people present silent.
So Wang Changjun thought about it and decided to settle for the second best. Now he had to tell the king the news immediately and ask him to make the decision.
"Excuse me, everyone. Please stay in the hall for a few more hours. I have something to go out for."
Wang Changjun led his men out of the hall.
Due to the restrictions of the formation on the mountainside, electronic equipment had already been blocked, and Wang Changjun had to go out to inform the king.
Kyoto.
Inside a quadrangle courtyard.
The king's eyes lit up more and more as he looked at the encrypted message coming from his phone.
In the end, he even stood up from his seat excitedly.
"good!!"
"Su Ren really didn't disappoint me. I thought this would take some time, but I didn't expect it to be so easy."
"I have to do something before the news leaks out."
The king thought for a moment, then shouted outside:
"Someone come!"
The two guards standing outside the door opened the door and walked in upon hearing the sound.
"Lord, what do you want?"
"Pass my order on the governors of the four southeastern states, the four northeastern states, and the five central plains states to attend the video conference together ."
"Also summon all department heads to follow me to the meeting hall."
As soon as the order was issued, all departments started to operate.
It only took about fifteen minutes.
All those who should be present have already arrived.
Even several elders from the Magic Association and the Warrior Association, who basically did not participate in worldly affairs, arrived at the meeting hall.
The king simply explained what had happened.
"What? Gu Jianfeng and Nangong Wentian died in Daoshan?"
"Su Ren's strength is becoming more and more unpredictable. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?"
"If this matter is not handled properly, I'm afraid it will cause chaos!"
In the video conference, the most surprised person was none other than Donghua State Governor Lu Wenshu.
Donghua Prefecture is one of the four southeastern prefectures, so Lu Wenshu was naturally invited in.
"When did Su Ren become so powerful?"
"They even killed the patriarchs of the two major families. This..."
No matter how Lu Wenshu thought about it, he found it unbelievable. After all, his impression of Su Ren was still stuck in what he had seen a few months ago.
Su Ren didn't send any news back, so naturally he didn't know much.
"Lord, what do you mean by calling us here?"
Everyone looked at the king.
"The reason why I urgently summoned you all tonight is just one thing. I want you to work together to eliminate the Nangong family and the Gu family."
"As for the Cao family, the ancestor of the Cao family is still alive. You five states in the Central Plains only need to send people to defend against the Cao family. You don't need to take action."
Hearing this, everyone was shocked.
However, they only frowned slightly. After all, as the top leaders of Dragon Country, they were naturally well aware of the threat posed by the aristocratic families.
But they didn't expect the king to act so quickly, and they didn't even receive any news in advance.
"Lord, when will we start?"
"Tonight, now!"
"Everyone is divided into two groups. Use the teleportation array to go to the two states where the two families are located. First, destroy their main force. After daybreak, take the flying boat to the major cities to destroy their forces."
"It has to be quick. We can't give them time to react."
"Everything must be done with a legitimate reason. For this operation, you can invite all local professionals to join in the fight under the slogan of killing the traitors."
“I don’t think they’ll miss this opportunity.”
"Punish the traitor?"
Everyone nodded, it made sense.
These three families dared to openly assassinate students participating in the trial competition, which was a provocation to the authorities.
The king stood up and looked at everyone.
"Everyone, the stability of Dragon Country's future depends on you."
"I will personally go to the Cao family in the Central Plains to visit the ancestor of the Cao family. Everyone, just go ahead and do it tonight."
"As the Lord, I will definitely live up to your trust!"
Everyone stood up and left quickly, and soon the meeting hall became quiet.
Tonight in Dragon Country, everyone is talking about today’s secret realm assessment.
Little did they know that something major that would shock the entire country and even the entire world was quietly happening.
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night for some people.
