Virtue is abundant

Chapter 437 Tears
The parliament hall was crowded with people.

But there is no sound.

Everyone is looking at Wu Xiaode.

Wu Xiaode stood on the steps, with a half-smile, stretched out his hand without hesitation, and gently wrapped his arms around Joan's waist.

"I came to the meeting, but now it seems that you have something against me..."

"Who has an opinion on me? Stand up and talk about it."

With a cigar in his mouth, he spoke slowly.

Many people looked back.

When a person is proud of what he has done and is not shy about it, the more you attack him, the more he thinks he has done a good job.

honestly--

Killing the head of the family and replacing him, and getting the service of a talented woman like Joan is indeed enviable.

Not to mention he beat Sion away.

That was the end of the legend——

The strange end that was born by devouring the heroes of the entropy end family for 800 years and became extremely powerful!

Reason trumps all.

Even Joan's father, the patriarch of the Hellflame family, also said:

"Being able to win my daughter's heart proves that you still have some abilities. When you are free in the future, come to the prison flame's house. I want to test your strength and see how you defeated Jingguanshan."

Wu Xiaode glanced at him.

This old immortal thing.

Is the Entropy Family coming at any moment?
He even used the word "exam".

This has put the Hellflame family on top of the Entropy family.

——Do you really think you only know how to fight?
Wu Xiaode sneered, and then said: "Test me? In this way, you can actually beat Jingguanshan?"

Without waiting for the other party to answer, he said again: "If I remember correctly, the patriarch of the Hell Flame Clan is also a member of the elders, you don't fight Jingguan Mountain yourself, but let me go up to fight, and now you say Exam I—”

"It's okay, I'll start from the Hellflame family, and everyone in your family can fight with me."

"Until I kill you all."

A series of angry reprimands sounded in the venue:

"shut up!"

"presumptuous!"

"Ridiculous!"

"Arian from the Entropy Mo family, what you said just now has violated the law of annihilation—members of the Annihilation Council are not allowed to kill each other!"

The atmosphere froze for a while.

Everyone stared at Wu Xiaode.

If--

Ariane really declared a war in public in the parliament, to deal with the Hellflame family, this is absolutely not allowed.

The Book of the Law of Exterminating the World will never allow this kind of blatant cannibalism!

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Wu Xiaode took a sip of his cigar indifferently.

He slowly exhaled the smoke, suddenly laughed and said:

"Just kidding, everyone, what are you nervous about?"

"Are you really afraid that I will kill them all?"

"No, we are all good brothers. It's too late for me to love you all. Besides, I'll be the one to fight the enemy desperately, so you can all hide behind me and enjoy your happiness."

Qiong looked at Wu Xiaode nervously, only to see that he was looking over with a smile.

"Where do we sit?"

Wu Xiaode asked her.

Joan peeked at the members of the elders group, 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 Arian came to the council, he completely offended the entire elders.

The group of elders presides over all affairs and gathers the most powerful figures in the entire council.

Even the elders can ask for the Book of the World-Destroying Law and send down the tasks that Ariane has to complete!
Ariane.

Why did he put himself in such a dead place?

Joan only felt trembling all over, and even felt a little suffocated.

Wu Xiaode felt that what he had done was not enough.

These bastards, when they were negotiating conditions with Xi'an, deliberately exposed their identities, which made Xi'an feel murderous.

If he didn't have the power of the Wall of Wishes to invite the Emperor to come, he would have died on the spot.

Even if you don't die, you will peel off your skin!

Do you expect yourself to give this group of old guys a good look?

dream!

Joan didn't know this.

She took a deep breath, with a gentle and obedient smile on her face:

"My lord, we should sit here."

She led Wu Xiaode all the way into the long row of seats, and found two seats to sit down.

Joan quickly made up her mind and prepared to go all the way to the dark.

At this moment, I can only support Ariane!

The other congressmen along the way carefully moved out of the way, for fear of bumping into Ariane.

People gradually arrived.

The speaker who presided over the meeting began to speak:
"Okay, now let me introduce the situation."

"At the end of the mutation, Jingguanshan, when the parliament rioted, the entire treasury of the parliament bank was stolen, causing the council to suffer heavy losses."

"Now, please be generous and donate enough funds for the parliament!"

After these words were finished, there were bursts of dissatisfied noises.

Everyone knows that a meeting is to discuss countermeasures.

But right now, the treasury of each family has been emptied, and the elders of the council not only don't consider this matter, but want to spill everyone's blood as soon as it comes up!

"Silence! Silence!"

The speaker waved his hand for a long time, and even had to release a few magic spells before he managed to restore the silence of the whole meeting place.

He exclaimed:

"Now the council is about to face the challenge of the Silence of All Souls Association."

"——This is the task assigned by the Book of the Law of Destroyer, and it is said to be related to the coming of heroic spirits."

"This is a severe test!"

"Only one of our two organizations, the World Annihilation Council and the All Souls Silence Association, can survive."

"Parliament has run out of money to face this serious war."

"So we started raising money for the war first—"

The speaker's squinted eyes gradually opened a crack, revealing indifferent and heartless pupils, and lightly glanced at Wu Xiaode.

His lips moved, and he said the words he had prepared for a long time:

"Let's start with the Entropy Family first."

Silent.

Every congressman who participated in the meeting was very clear-eyed.

——This is going to take the Entropy Mo family under the knife!
If you donate less, the elders can summon the Book of the World-Destroying Law to punish the crime.

How much do you donate-

If you have money, yes, why not donate more?

Maybe the Entropy Mo family will be emptied directly!
Joan sat in her seat and collected herself. She still couldn't understand Arian's attitude, but after hearing the speaker's words, she slowly came to her senses.

Ariane was able to beat "Sion" away, but he didn't listen to the elders, and even made a death feud.

He has no middle ground.

This is a fight to the death!

So it's better to show your attitude as soon as you come up, and don't give the other party any chance to play tricks!

She lowered her head in her seat and silently figured out the whole thing.

Arian's voice has already sounded in the ear:

"I heard that the treasure house of our Entropy family has been frozen... Anyway, I will donate the entire treasure house, which can be regarded as a contribution to the council."

The Speaker immediately said:
"The treasure house of the Entropy family was also stolen by Jingguanshan, and they were unable to provide any funds. Please ask the patriarch of the Entropy family to come up with another sum of money."

Wu Xiaode twitched the corner of his mouth.

These old foxes, who named the Entropy family as soon as they came up, obviously wanted to use themselves.

But are you afraid of them?
——The treasury and wealth of all your families are in my hands.

I also donated the title of "Hand of Destroying the World".

Now, just let it go with your hands.

He was about to speak when Joan suddenly reached out and patted his arm lightly.

Ok?
What is Joan going to do?
Wu Xiaode was a little surprised, but saw Qiong stand up, saluted gracefully, and said with a smile:

"It seems that all the treasures of our Entropy family have been stolen, but it doesn't matter. When I married from the Hellfire family, I brought a lot of dowry, so I will donate it all this time."

Wu Xiaode was stunned for a moment, and immediately showed appreciation.

This is enough to show attitude!
Taking out her dowry and donating it to the World Extermination Council, Joan expressed three meanings in this way of showing weakness.

First, our Entropy Family doesn’t have much money anymore;

Second, for the Entropy family, I donated all the money from the Hellflame family to show that I have completely stood on the side of the Entropy family and have nothing to do with the Hellfire family anymore!
Third, a woman donated all her dowry for the sake of the family and the council, so you have the nerve to embarrass us?
If this is also difficult, what about others?
Shall we scrape off all the remaining money of the council members?

That will make the entire World Extermination Council fluctuate, the army's morale will be slackened, and it will even fall apart in the ensuing war!
Is your group of elders really going to do this?
wonderful!

Joan's hands are quite beautiful, and she definitely deserves the name of her family's mistress!
The speaker frowned imperceptibly, and said in a gentle voice:

"Mistress of the Entropy family, your deeds are indeed worthy of our admiration, but I want to know, how much is your dowry?"

Joan 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 dowries of the entire Hellflame family, and he will be responsible for handing them over to Sion."

"Huh? Give it to Sion? Sion is dead!" said the speaker.

"That's right, but Sion told me before he died that my father hasn't sent me my dowry for hundreds of years." Joan said with a smile.

There was an uproar from the crowd.

Marrying a daughter without giving a dowry?
What did you take your daughter for?What do you think of the Entropy family?

But having said that, the Patriarch of the Hellflame family has many children, and each of them is just a pawn. Joan was not considered outstanding back then, so it is possible that he was not taken seriously.

but……

Give nothing.

In this case, it is foreseeable how difficult and embarrassing it is for Joan in the Entropy family.

No wonder she completely fell for Ariane!

What she did was justifiable!

People secretly thought.

Wu Xiaode also changed his mind.

—and a fourth.

Fourth, although this is a world where strength is the most important thing, sometimes reputation is also very important. Joan can win people's sympathy by exposing this matter. It's all as it should be.

If it were anyone, they would betray the Prison Flame Clan and fall into the arms of the Entropy Mo Clan.

From now on, she can justifiably keep her father away!

This is also an attitude to himself in public!

Wu Xiaode glanced at her, only to see that her eyes were like silk, and she gently retreated from his gaze.

In the distance, the voice of the head of the Hellfire Clan sounded:
"The old man has already given you your dowry to Sion. What he told you is a lie to you, Joan."

As soon as the gentle look on Joan's face faded, the whole person suddenly stood up again, and said sharply:

"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 detected, but in front of that book, you can't fake it!"

"I want to ask the book of the law of the world to judge whether what you said is true or not!"

The patriarch of the Hellflame Clan looked gloomy and didn't answer for a while, but just looked at the speaker.

The Speaker immediately said:
"Okay, here is an extremely serious war preparation meeting, how can you please use the book of the law of the world to distinguish the true from the false for your family's gossip?"

"The Entropy family, you are just messing around, and you still haven't donated any funds."

"That's how you treat Parliament? Huh?"

Speaking of the last sentence, his voice already had a bit of killing intent.

Joan snorted disdainfully and placed her hand on a diamond ring.

money.

She has.

Ariane gave her a whole treasury of wealth.

At this time, the situation was stronger than others, and seeing that it was impossible to seek justice, they had to take out the money to eliminate the disaster.

Although it's a bit frustrating——

But in order to survive, some things can only be endured.

She was just about to take out some treasures from the gemstone ring, but found that her hand was lightly pressed.

"Erian?"

Joan asked in a low voice, puzzled.

Wu Xiaode pressed her hand and fell into deep thought.

If Joan had been struggling to survive in such dire circumstances—

Then some of her actions can be forgiven.

If I were any woman, I'm afraid I couldn't do better.

at the moment.

Sitting in the hall of the World Destruction Council, seeing the women of the family being bullied, can't you do anything?
But what do you have?
In this council, I have only one title——

The hand that destroys the world.

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 council."

"I believe everyone knows that I can use the power of will to destroy and cast spells that destroy everything."

"In addition, I also beat Jingguanshan away, and my strength is outstanding."

"—I have one more thing the Council has always wanted:"

"Forging method of figurines."

He gently pulled out a jade slip and showed it to everyone.

Figurine forging method!

Everyone's breathing became a lot heavier.

In the world of "Heaven, Earth and Man", everyone can see how strong those guardian gods are.

Right now, this figurine forging method falls into the hands of Ariane!

As long as he is given time, he can forge powerful figurines one by one, so that the family strength will become the strongest existence in the entire council!

The speaker couldn't help but said:

"Erian, your figurine forging method must be donated to—"

Wu Xiaode interrupted him without hesitation:

"I am willing to donate the figurine forging method to the parliament, but the condition is that I invite you to use the Book of the Law of Destroying the World to come and discern whether Patriarch Hellflame's words are true or false."

The speaker was taken aback.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

He paid such a high price just to know whether Patriarch Hellfire had prepared a dowry for Joan back then?
The speaker shouted:

"Your condition is too rude. After all, for the future of the entire council, the forging method must—"

Click.

Wu Xiaode pressed his five fingers lightly, and several cracks appeared on the jade slip.

"Don't be impulsive!"

"Don't destroy it!"

"stop!"

Everyone couldn't help shouting.

If it is necessary to fight a life-and-death battle with the Silence of All Souls Association, then obtaining enough human figurine patron saints can be said to be the key to victory!
However, Wu Xiaode wanted to destroy this jade slip that recorded the forging method of figurines!

Seeing Wu Xiaode's mouth twitch slightly, he said with a light smile:
"I can seriously tell everyone that I didn't even look at what's in it."

"So if this jade slip is destroyed, it is completely broken."

"It's useless to find me, because I don't know how to forge human figurines."

His hands worked again.

The cracks on the jade slip got deeper and deeper, and even a little powder fell from the cracks.

The speaker's heart skipped a beat.

He looked at the other members of the elders group, and saw that everyone nodded slightly.

this time.

The honor of a prison flame family is not as good as the lives of all people!

Besides, the dowry matter is just a gossip scandal, and although it will make the Hell Flame family look bad, it will not be able to substantially damage the family's interests.

Everyone knows what to choose!
"Is this the only condition you have? Let the book of the law of the world to distinguish whether the words of Patriarch Hellflame are true or false?"

asked the Speaker.

"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 muttered a spell.

The entire elder group, except for the patriarch of the Hellflame family, the other elders followed suit and chanted a spell.

Void flashed.

The huge, dark and solemn book appeared before everyone.

"Please help us distinguish between true and false."

The Speaker said slowly, "Erian, you can ask now."

Wu Xiaode greeted the book of the law of destroying the world:
"Hi, long time no see, my question is—"

"The patriarch of the Hellflame family said that Joan had already provided a dowry, and all of it was given to Sion of the Entropy family."

"Is this true or false?"

The book of the Law of Extermination fluttered lightly, landed in front of the patriarch of the Hellflame Clan, and opened it quietly.

A line of black fire characters then appeared on the page:
"Let's talk, in front of me, there is no possibility of being fake."

The patriarch of the Hellfire Clan was silent for a moment, and could only speak:

"I did not provide a dowry."

There was an uproar among the crowd.

Wu Xiaode stood up directly and threw the cigar in his mouth.

"Damn! You're marrying your daughter. What the hell, why does Joan have a father like you?"

he yelled.

The patriarch of the Hell Flame Clan snorted coldly, his expression not changing at all.

Compared with real benefits, what is this little thing?
What if I admit it?
On the other hand, Ariane had to pay for such a worthless thing with the real forging method of human figurines.

——It's still too sentimental!
Such a person cannot become a master.

The speaker repeatedly said:
"Okay! That's all for now, Ariane, your forging method—"

"Here you are!" Wu Xiaode threw the jade slip out.

The jade slip slowly turned in mid-air and fell towards the speaker.

People watched this scene silently.

For a woman, he gave something of such amazing value.

does it worth?
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 used to deceive these malicious guys.

He reached out and touched Joan's head, and said softly:
"Okay, it's okay, from now on no one can say that you are sorry for the Hellflame family."

Joan nodded silently.

She tried her best to look demure and dignified, but the tears in her eyes were like a river breaking its embankment, which could not be stopped at all.
