Chapter 187.1

Chapter 187.1

This bloody head belonged to none other than Hong Qihai, the leader of the Beggar Sect.

By now, the elders of the Beggar Sect had realized why they had not received any news of their leader for so long.

Because he was already dead, killed by Great Xia.

At this moment, Lin Beifan approached with a smile: Elders, are you satisfied with this gift weve presented to you?

One of the Beggar Sect elders cried out in agitation: You you killed our leader!

Thats right! Lin Beifan nodded in acknowledgment.

The elder continued to shout: You had no grievances or enmity, why did you kill our leader?

Who says there was no grievance or enmity?

Lin Beifan retorted loudly: This scoundrel! Despite being a Grandmaster and the head of a faction, he had no sense of righteousness of the rivers and lakes, and he even attempted to burn our food supplies!

If he had succeeded, tens of millions of Great Xias people would have starved, and even millions could have died of hunger! How could I not kill such a deranged person? Where would justice be if I didnt?

The Beggar Sect elders opened their mouths to object but found themselves speechless.

If their leader had indeed attempted such a heinous act, his death was indeed a justified punishment.

But he was the leader of the Beggar Sect!

The pillar that held their sect aloft!

With his death, what would become of the Beggar Sect?

Where would these elders of the Beggar Sect go from here?

Should they seek revenge for their leader?

But did they have the power to do so?

At this moment, their hearts were filled with uncertainty, unsure of what to do.

Lin Beifan declared: Anyone who opposes me, who opposes Great Xia, will meet a bad end! It has been so in the past, it is so now, and it will be so in the future! Even if he is a Grandmaster, I dare to kill!

The Beggar Sect elders were so frightened that they retreated, not daring to meet Lin Beifans gaze.

Then, Lin Beifan closed the box, hiding the bloody head from view, and said with a smile: The Beggar Sect has no future! Without a Grandmaster to support it, the Beggar Sect will quickly become a second-rate power, and your interests, elders, will be harmed! So why not choose a good master to serve now?

I dare not claim to be a wise and martial ruler, but I am certainly a generous master. I will give you everything you deserve! Wealth, high-ranking positions, peerless martial arts, divine weapons, and elixirs all will be yours! Isnt this better than being a futureless beggar in the Beggar Sect?

The crowd did not respond, their faces still filled with shock.

Clearly, they had not yet recovered from the shock.

Lin Beifan glanced at the Beggar Sect elders and said with a smile: This matter concerns your future, and I know you need to think it over carefully! So I will return to the palace first. Take your time to consider, and come find me when you have made up your minds!

Lin Beifan left the room.

The other attendants took away the items in the room, leaving only the bloody head behind.

The elders looked at each other, then at the box containing the head of the Beggar Sect leader, feeling as if their strength had been drained.

One of the elders sighed: We cannot let the outside world know about this, or the Beggar Sect will surely fall into chaos!

Alas! the other elders nodded in agreement.

He picked up the envelope, opened it, and a hint of joy appeared on his face.

The next day, the elders of the Beggar Sect gathered again to discuss the aftermath of their leaders death and the future development of the Beggar Sect.

As for revenge, they didnt even dare to mention it.

Two days passed, and in the dead of night, Elder Zhou took the letter and quietly left his home.

After several turns, he arrived in front of a mysterious mansion and knocked on the door.

The door quickly opened, and the person who opened it saw Elder Zhous face and smiled warmly, Is this Elder Zhou from the Beggar Sect? His Majesty has been waiting for you for a long time!

Alright, lead the way! Elder Zhou replied politely.

After turning through two corridors, they entered a brightly lit room.

Upon entering the room, Elder Zhous pupils shrank rapidly.

There, he saw not only Lin Beifan but also the other seven elders of the Beggar Sect.

That is to say, all eight of the Beggar Sects elders have come for this occasion!

All were present and accounted for; not a single one was missing!

However, upon seeing Elder Zhou, their expressions became somewhat unnatural, and they averted their gazes.

Only Lin Beifan greeted him with a smile: Elder Zhou, youve arrived! This seat is for you. Please have a seat!

Thank you, Your Majesty! Elder Zhou bowed and then took his seat.

Lin Beifan glanced at everyone and revealed a satisfied smile: Now that everyone is here, Im very pleased. All of you elders are wise, and I am comforted by that! Youve all chosen to come here, and without saying much, its clear you all see the potential in Great Xia and are willing to serve me! You trust me, and I will not let you down!

Lin Beifan clapped his hands, and immediately people started bringing in one box after another.

Upon opening them, they were filled with either gold ingots or gold bars, dazzling the Beggar Sects elders once again.

This is a welcome gift for you all, ten thousand taels of gold for each person!

The Beggar Sects elders became anxious.

Your Majesty, this is too much!

We cannot accept rewards without rendering service!

Lin Beifan waved his hand nonchalantly: Its fine, if I give it to you, just take it! After all, youll be moving here to live, so youll need some money to settle in!

The elders internally exclaimed, Goodness!

Ten thousand taels of gold for settling in!

Forget settling in, thats enough to buy several homes!
