Chapter 487 - 307: Enlightenment Failed? Emperor Min’s Wrath! The Treasure That Deters the National Guardian Realm!

They had never seen Master Tang so angry.

For a long while.

"Alas... Chu Ming is also unlucky to encounter such a petty person." Tang Bai seemed to be talking to himself.

Chu Ming?

How did it get related to that Junior Brother again?

The two exchanged glances.

Suddenly.

Hmm?

Their eyes locked with Condensing Light!

It seemed they simultaneously guessed something.

Could it be...

The Golden List topper was that Junior Brother, and then Luu Xi wanted to seize it, resulting in his death?!

Could it be...

At this thought, their expressions grew vivid, and they unconsciously shifted their steps.

They couldn’t resist the urge to find out what exactly happened.

"You two, stop." Tang Bai called them to a halt.

"Tomorrow’s grand art competition is near, you’re not allowed to go anywhere."

"Master Tang..."

"..."

...

Qin Capital, Inner City, Tang Family.

"A Golden List topper, after three hundred years, a Golden List topper has appeared again." Minister of War Tang Ying sat at the main seat, his expression agitated.

"Patriarch, that Golden List epiphany only lasted for a little over two hours..." Cavalry Captain Tang Run said in a deep voice.

"What do you mean to say?" Tang Ying asked, frowning.

"I suspect the epiphany was ruined."

"Hmm? Is there any news from father?"

"Father is with His Majesty, no news has been sent back yet."

"Then go and find out the truth!"

"Yes."

"..."

...

Qin Capital, Inner City, Pei Family.

"General Yien, today during the Golden List Grand Competition, a Golden List topper appeared."

"Oh?" North Snow Army Bone Marrow Cleansing Realm expert Yien Chong raised an eyebrow, "Who is it?"

"An illegitimate son." Grand Commandant Pei Qing mocked, "The funny thing is, this child’s Golden List epiphany was forcibly ruined."

"Forcibly ruined?" Yien Chong was intrigued, "Who is bold enough to do that."

"Zuo Yuan, the student of Left Minister, the son of Secretary of the Imperial Secretariat Luu Shizhong, Luu Xi."

"But this child was also obliterated by the Golden Light because of it."

"It is quite interesting," Yien Chong laughed, "Have Luo Kui prepare well for tomorrow’s competition."

"Yes."

"..."

...

Qin Capital, Inner City, Xiao Mansion.

"What? Chu Ming topped the Golden List?!" Xiao Wen rose in delight, "Second Uncle, hurry, prepare lavish gifts, I must go congratulate Chu Ming."

"..." Xiao Jianxin stood at the doorway, with anger in his eyes.

"Second Uncle?" Xiao Wen sensed something was amiss.

"Chu Ming’s Golden List epiphany was forcibly ruined."

"What?!"

"..."

...

Qin Capital, Regent’s Mansion.

Regent Envoy Jee Qianhong sat at the top seat, with Inspector Liu Bingmu and Zhong Yang below.

Jee Qianhong looked at Zhong Yang and said, "Inspector Zhong, if I recall, you assisted Attendant Reader Chu with the Cui Ye case, right?"

"Reporting to Lord, the evidence was found by Attendant Reader Chu."

"Are you aware that Attendant Reader Chu participated in the poetry Golden Competition today?"

"I am not aware."

"Not aware, huh..." Jee Qianhong’s eyes flickered, then he smiled, "Attendant Reader Chu topped the Golden List today."

Golden List Topper?!

"..."

...

Mei’an Mountain Stone Factory.

"Lord Chu’s Golden List topping was ruined?"

"What? Who did it?!"

"Luu Xi? The son of Secretary of the Imperial Secretariat Luu Shizhong? A disciple of the Left Minister?"

"It doesn’t matter whose son he is, doesn’t matter whose disciple."

"Lord Chu has saved us, we owe our lives today all to Lord Chu!"

"Lord Chu’s opportunity was ruined, even if I die outside the Imperial City, I must seek justice for Lord Chu!"

"I’m going too!"

"Count me in!"

"..."

And so, the news of low-class family member Chu Ming’s Golden List topping being ruined, and his two-hour epiphany spread through Qin Capital like a snowstorm.

In just half a day, from high officials to street vendors, everyone knew about it.

...

Qin Capital, Imperial City, Jinluan Hall.

Emperor Qin changed into a clean robe and sat on the Dragon Throne, his slightly trembling face striving to suppress the anger within.

"Master Tang."

Tang Guang, a Bone Marrow Cleansing Realm expert from the Astronomical Bureau, stepped forward and bowed.

"Issue my decree, the Luu Family is treasonous and rebellious, execute the Nine Familities!"

"Zuo Yuan and the Luu Family colluded, intending to ruin the fortune of our Great Qin Kingdom, execute the Nine Familities!"

Every word was spoken through gritted teeth.

As emperor of the Great Qin Dynasty, he never imagined that because of the son of a Secretary of the Imperial Secretariat, he would be beaten by the ancestors until he spat blood.

This anger was so immense that not even a slaughter of ten thousand people could ease it.

"Yes." Tang Guang bowed and accepted the order.

"Master Hoong."

"Your humble servant is here."

"Issue my decree, confer the title of Baron to Chu Ming and grant him the title of Duke Xirong, awarding him the Three Bestowments."
