Chapter 1775 - 1760: Principles of Disposition

Ye Zhen stared with big eyes at War Soul Hall Master Bi Ze for a long time, and finally, Bi Ze sat back down in a somewhat despondent manner.

As Ye Zhen mentioned, Second Grand Power Sacrifice Tongna indeed has great influence, but it’s not certain that all of their clan’s offenders can be saved.

What’s more important is that, based on Bi Ze’s understanding of Tongna, when it comes to declaring open war with the Heavenly Patrol Department or the Secret Overseer, Tongna is likely to weigh the pros and cons before deciding whether to get involved.

To put it bluntly, Tong Na is an old fox who won’t do something thankless.

After all, things like Dalantai Da Clan that will cause trouble for anyone who gets involved are certainly avoided by Tong Daquan Priest Tongna.

On the other hand, Ye Zhen, even if he’s not the Grand Celestial Official of the Heavenly Patrol Department, but since the department has already targeted the high-level clan members of War Soul Hall, this is a fact.

The Left Chief Priest Xii Mo, enraged by Ye Zhen’s words, suddenly transmitted to Bi Ze via Divine Soul Telecommunication, "Hall Master, this kid is the source of our trouble. Why don’t we just kill him here and solve all the problems. We can put forth a scapegoat afterward!"

Saying this, Xii Mo’s eyes gleamed with a fierce light.

Bi Ze hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.

"Ye Zhen has an unusual relationship with Princess Changle; if he dies in our War Soul Hall, it can hardly be explained away.

Moreover, as a Wind Patrol Envoy for the Heavenly Patrol Department, if he dies within our War Soul Hall, the department certainly won’t let it go!"

At that moment, sensing the killing Qi emanating from Xii Mo, Ye Zhen suddenly let out a cold laugh.

"So, you want to silence me by killing; isn’t that convenient? Go ahead and do as you please!"

Suddenly, Ye Zhen smiled cunningly, pointing lightly at his own figure, and in an instant, he sitting cross-legged before them turned into nothingness.

But in the next moment, another living Ye Zhen appeared before Bi Ze and the others.

This made Bi Ze and Xii Mo’s expressions change drastically.

"Hall Master, perhaps we should listen to what it is exactly that Left Chief Priest Ye wants, and then decide?" Right Chief Priest Dalantai suddenly said in a pleading tone.

Hearing this, War Soul Hall Master Bi Ze secretly breathed a sigh of relief, actually he had wanted to ask this for a long time.

After all, choosing the lesser of two evils is wise.

However, as Hall Master, asking like this would seem like backing down, so he’s never able to get the words right.

Now Dalantai has given him the perfect ladder to step down.

"I want to know what Left Chief Priest Ye is pressing for?" Although Bi Ze knows the dispute arose from refusing to rent Ye Zhen the Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seal Avatar, as of today, it’s unclear exactly what Ye Zhen’s terms are.

"What exactly is it for?"

"I want your War Soul Hall’s Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seal, are you willing to give it!" Ye Zhen shocked them with his words.

Bi Ze’s face changed immediately, "That’s impossible! That’s absolutely impossible!"

"Just kidding! I’m not that naive!" Seeing Bi Ze’s face change drastically, Ye Zhen gestured for him to sit down, while Bi Ze himself was in a gloomy mood—as if joking at a time like this?

"What I want is very simple: just to borrow your War Soul Hall’s Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seal Avatar for a while!" Ye Zhen said.

Upon hearing this, both Hall Master Bi Ze, Xii Mo, and Dalantai showed relaxation in their expressions.

"Is that all?"

"That’s all!"

Hearing this, Bi Ze and the others breathed a long sigh of relief once again, especially Dalantai, whose relaxed expression included deep regret.

Ye Zhen eventually asked for nothing unforgivable, just borrowing the Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seal Avatar, which was very easy.

Moreover, they had always rented out their Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seal.

Dalantai now wished he could rip apart his own gossipy mouth.

Otherwise, how could their Da Clan invite such calamity today?

"This matter is easy, but I want to know, if we agree to Ye Left Chief Priest’s terms, can the Heavenly Patrol Department stop investigating our War Soul Hall’s high-level clan members?" Bi Ze asked.

And this is the most crucial point.

"This can be done!" Ye Zhen’s words made Bi Ze and the others very happy again, but Ye Zhen’s subsequent words made Dalantai and the others panic.

"Yes, but I can’t guarantee it for all." Ye Zhen added.

"Can’t you guarantee it for all? What do you mean?" Dalantai was a bit anxious, his tone becoming harsh, and Ye Zhen gave him a fierce stare, causing Dalantai to quickly change his tone, "Ye Left Chief Priest, can you give a straightforward explanation, please?"

"To put it bluntly, such as the heinous crimes discovered among your Da Clan, like collusion with foreign clans and the Demon Clan, cannot be ignored as if they never happened." Ye Zhen said.

"Then... how will the Heavenly Patrol Department handle it?" Dalantai asked urgently.

"Simple, the main perpetrators will be executed, this is the bottom line in our Great Zhou Dynasty. The followers can be dealt with leniently, and spared from execution."

Ye Zhen had previously heard Grand Celestial Official Wu Yu’s opinion on this matter.

Upon hearing this, Dalantai seemed lost, "So you’re saying there’s no hope for my third brother Dalanshou..."

Ye Zhen nodded.

After a long moment of being lost, Dalantai resolutely lifted his head, "Compared to the entire family’s punishment, this outcome is acceptable."

Dalantai agreed to Ye Zhen’s proposal.

"The same should apply to Master Bi’s side, for those whose crimes are minor, the Heavenly Patrol Department can act as if nothing has happened, they can remain in their positions with just a compensation to cover the deficit.

Those with slightly more severe crimes, the department can turn a blind eye, they resign after making up the deficit. As for the two heinous ones, Master Bi should know which two.

As with Da Clan’s handling method, only the main culprit is punished, not the followers.

The handling principles for other high-level clan members of the War Soul Hall are the same!"

"Is this the only way?" Bi Ze smiled wryly.

"This is the final bottom line!" Ye Zhen stated.

Actually, when Ye Zhen stated the handling principles, Bi Ze had already accepted them.

Because Bi Ze clearly understands, if he seeks help from First Grand Power Sacrifice Tongna, Tong Daquan Priest will definitely intervene, but the result would be contrary to Ye Zhen’s proposal.

Tongna Tong Daquan Priest can suppress and rescue those who have committed minor offenses or crimes not deserving of death, but those truly life-threatening sins that implicate the entire family cannot be suppressed by Tong Na.

"If that’s the case, we can accept it! How long does Left Chief Priest Ye plan to borrow the Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seal Avatar from our War Soul Hall?"

Finally, Bi Ze made a choice knowingly, even someone as rigid as Xii Mo sighed with relief hearing Hall Master Bi Ze’s words.

"One hundred years!"

"What?"

"One hundred years, did I hear that right?"

Both Hall Master Bi Ze, Left and Right Chief Priests Xii Mo and Dalantai looked dumbfounded.

Ye Zhen initially only wanted to rent the Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seal Avatar for fifteen days, how come it’s now one hundred years?

Such a huge gap!

"That’s impossible! One hundred years is too long, that’s absolutely impossible!" Bi Ze exclaimed.

"Oh, so according to you, there’s nothing to negotiate! In that case, I’ll be leaving, you can reconsider!

However, the actions of the Heavenly Patrol Department won’t be stopping!"

Having said this, Ye Zhen stood up, clapped his hands, and was about to leave.

This made Dalantai and Bi Ze anxious.

After all, Ye Zhen’s solution has the least impact on their respective families!

Gritting his teeth, Bi Ze hurriedly said, "One hundred years is too long, that’s absolutely impossible, ten years! We can lend you the Ten Thousand Bones Reincarnation Seal Avatar for up to ten years!"

Bi Ze was still considering whether ten years would retain Ye Zhen when he saw Ye Zhen turn around swiftly upon hearing his words and then said to Bi Ze delightedly,

"Alright, ten years then, that’s acceptable!"

Upon hearing this, Bi Ze suddenly felt dumbfounded; hell with it, he got fooled by Ye Zhen’s evil scheme!

Perhaps, not to mention ten years, even for one year or half a year could be negotiated.

That guy is truly despicable!
