Chapter 49 Mad Dog Unleashed, a Beautiful Flower Wilted
Everyone, don't get complacent, flip through your books, keeping up with your reading is important, thank you all.
......
The children were kept in the dark to the bone.
Of course, they had no idea that Zhuge Caihua prioritized the big picture and had painstakingly devised all sorts of strategies to wait for reinforcements, because these things simply couldn't be let known to ordinary students!
If ordinary students knew, the True Lord of Bai Yang would know, and by then, would people like Zhuge Caihua be dragged to the gallows and xxxooo a hundred times over?Nôv(el)B\\jnn
You little ants, dare to plot schemes right under the eyes of a Nascent Soul True Monarch!
Zhuge Caihua's plan was to control the intensity and process of voting, making everyone feel time after time that the vote was just a little shy, that it actually could pass, offering hope without leading to complete despair, and then to seek ways to delay further, in hope of stalling until the final vote, waiting for the Immortal Sect's rescue forces!
Her headless body fell to the ground, with the girl's head still wearing a smile, having never imagined that she would be beheaded by Meng Yu with a single sword strike.
Alas, what a good girl she was!
Her plan was extremely risky, with the biggest problem being that the one who sticks their head out gets shot!
The True Lord of Bai Yang was of the Nascent Soul stage, plus having Mirror twelve, able to monitor every move in the Minor World, just like a person watching a swarm of ants. At that moment, if there was an ant that's strong, special, and mischievous, then this ant, this Zhuge Caihua, would face dangers far greater than all the other students.
When she stood out, she was prepared to face all sorts of crises!
She was a good girl, a genuinely good girl, but sadly, she couldn't avoid one problem, that only a thousand could survive!
If the rescue forces from the Immortal Sect didn't arrive.
By then, how would the quota for a thousand people be allocated?
And in those twelve days, those with high martial skills and wide connections, like reservoirs, would absorb more and more people, even forming organizations!
No matter how much one delays, in the end, one must face the ultimate choice, so historically, at the end of a dynasty, all those upright gentlemen, loyal officials and famous generals died unspeakably tragic deaths.
If you don't start your own stove, if you carry the people's will, if you are kind-hearted and lenient, you will lose!
Even, after you're dead, others still spit on you!
"Hmph, who wants to make a move, must step over my dead body first?"
Meng Yu repeated Zhuge Caihua's words, his expression fiercely cruel, "When she was twelve, her birthday present was a planet, at sixteen I had to mortgage my house to buy a Marrow-Cleansing Pill, she now makes billions every year, I don't even have a single hair on me!
And now, she's nagging, acting as if we're the ones in the wrong, where did we go wrong?"
Once people are dead, you can vigorously sling mud at them.
After all... it's very likely a Virtual Space, isn't it?
"Our parents, after a lifetime of toil, raised us, we come to compete, still needing loans, we abide by order, we believe in fairness and are willing to vote, yet we're mocked by those people, we want to express our anger, but are deemed irrational?"
Meng Yu's face was ferocious.
"Guys, I can't take it anymore, since you all want to act, then let's do it, let's start right now. I only have two things to say to you.
First, I will not participate in tomorrow's exemptions, any exemptions, I will draw lots with the rest who do not have the privilege, life or death, success or failure, is in the hands of fate!
Second, those who don't want to move against our own, no problem, just stand by and watch, I'll do it, and those who want to join me are my brothers!"
Most of the students were frightened, but some showed excited smiles, especially the more than thirty people that Zhuge Caihua handed over to Meng Yu; their eyes flickered.
Thanks to Zhuge Caihua's perceptive selection, she actually organized a bunch of students who were silent (relatively), elite, obedient, and daring enough to kill, and handed them over to Meng Yu.
These people, in times of peace, are called gentlemen, but in chaotic times, often become mighty generals. They always seem to be out of step with society, yet oddly willing to submit to a stronger leader!
Take, for example, the act of joining patrols at this time, which is a thankless task. If the Immortal Sect may no longer exist, why should they stand out and risk their lives, even death, to help unrelated people?
Many thanks to Zhuge Caihua for handing over these foolish but conscientious people to Meng Yu; then, Meng Yu led them to enforce the law!
Again, thank you to Zhuge Caihua, she overlooked one thing; Meng Yu had the authority to reward and punish!
This was very important, last night, Meng Yu had killed more than thirty people and had also fined and confiscated the properties of those who broke the rules; then he distributed this equipment and alchemical elixirs, among these thirty-plus people!
Zhao Kuangyin was overjoyed and gave Zhuge Caihua a big thumbs up!
Now, the atmosphere for the execution of Zhuge Caihua was ripe.
Zhuge Caihua's severed head rolled on the ground twice before coming to a stop; despite her reputation among the students and the many friends she had, now, she had lost everything!
Right, she hadn't died yet, after all the Wood-Element True Qi she cultivated was teeming with life force.
She opened her mouth, as if wanting to say something.
Meng Yu's filthy boot had stomped on her smart head!
Even grinding it a bit!
"Ptooey!"
He rudely spat out a mouthful of phlegm!
...
"Ahh!"
Zhuge Caihua suddenly awoke from the darkness.
She certainly remembered her last few seconds.
As a Qi Refinement Practitioner, her life was quite tenacious; at least when her head was stepped under Meng Yu's boot, she even smelled a foul odor!
"Awake?"
A female voice sounded beside her; Master Xue watched her with a weird expression.
"Ah, I'm not dead?"
Zhuge Caihua's soul had yet to settle down; after she felt her head, she realized it was still there.
"Since ten days ago, everything had been a simulation by Mirror twelve in the Martial Arts Miniature World; you were sent into a virtual world, so you didn't actually die."
Another staff member was explaining what was happening on site, with several big screens relaying the live events.
"Don't be too scared; it's all in the past now, all in the past."
A staff member comforted her, patting Zhuge Caihua's arm; the girl had broken out in a profuse sweat upon waking, her clothes soaked through.
Angry curses were heard from afar; that was Wang Youcai and others watching the big screens, having died a bit earlier, they witnessed much more.
Zhuge Caihua looked up and saw Wang Youcai and about a dozen others who had already died; she took a deep breath, and then... she held her breath because the TV replay showed the scene after Meng Yu had finished speaking and spat, he kicked her severed head tens of meters away!
Ahhh, ah, this super bastard, he's a beast!
You really went through with it!
Where did I ever wrong you!
Right, messed up!
She had been duped.
Empress Dowager He was happily looking at Dong Zhuo; this truly was Great Han's loyal subject!
