The Ruler Of All 179 Silence!

"Kill them!"

"They only deserve death!"

"They dare put their eyes lustfully on such a fine maiden!"

"We support the emperor!"

The crowd cheered, they supported the emperor completely. Only a few looked worried and sad, "What do we do? We only came here to roam around, I just hope that we won't be used as a hostage." 

"I hope so too."

It seemed like there were a few groups of people from the Fire Empire, they didn't know about anything like this, they were just small tourists.

Wang Tiantang looked around, he was happy with his people's complete support, he then looked towards the elders of the empire and nodded, "There is also another concern, some people are stuck in the empire, coming from the Fire Empire... For those, you have 2 choices, Live here and stay as the residents, or, you will be given a chance to return to your empire, but there will not be any mercy shown if anyone from this empire ever sees you again!" Wang Tiantang's words caused the few groups to be scared and confused. "It's your decision If you want to return, get to the castle gates at night. That is all that I had to tell my citizens. Once again, If you all want to support the Zhu Sect, visit the sect grounds!"

"Long Live the Emperor!"

The crowd cheered as Wang Tiantang walked away from the podium, Everyone from the castle returned to their living quarters. Zhu Long and Han Qiang however walked towards the Zhu Sect, they knew they had a lot of work in front of them so they had to hurry.

By the time Zhu Long reached the Zhu Sect, he noticed that a few had already been on their way to join it. He shook his head and walked towards the training grounds and called out for the Old King. Han Qiang stayed at the gates and waited for the interested people to arrive.

"Oh, Master, you have come back, I've heard the news, you really are the new sect leader, I didn't doubt you but hearing the Emperor say it made it feel more real," The Old King's words confused Zhu Long a bit but he replied by smiling.

"You need not worry, I will be providing a place for all of you to live, within this sect, but at a cost." Zhu Long smiled. The Old King smiled back and asked, "What would that be, master?"

Zhu Long looked around and said, "You lot will be the helpers, cleaning up the place, keeping the environment clean. Those with some cultivation could become guards, kids don't have to work but they should cultivate. You all are now parts of the Sect, if you are powerful enough, you will become a disciple, if not, you can still live here, but have to work."

Zhu Long's words caused a small smile to break on Old King's face, Old King looked towards Zhu Long and bowed, Zhu Long looked confused, "Don't bow, I am no king, just someone who will help those who are honest and in need."

Old King shook his head and looked towards Zhu Long with a happy expression, "Master, you are very kind, a bow is the least thing That I can do to show my respect. Is there anything else you need? I'd be happy to oblige."

Zhu Long nodded hearing Old King's words, "Of course, I do have one more thing. It's nothing too difficult, You, old King will have to work in my quarters. That way I can at least know the problems your people, there are also other things but some things need to be spoken in private."

"Master, I would be more than happy to oblige. I guess our work starts now. many people are outside." Old King said as he looked towards the entrance of the Sect, he could hear the crowd that was formed outside the sect. Zhu Long smiled and nodded, He looked around then towards Old King, "You know how to manage your people, I've already told you what to do, you will instruct them, I need to go and have a look at the people who want to join the sect, the days will be busy, especially after the battles with the FIre Empire Begins, some of these who want to become disciples will have to join the army and fight, but until then, you all should work hard." Zhu Long said to the vagrants, 'I think that I can guess the secret that they are hiding.'

Old King nodded when he heard Zhu Long's words, "Master doesn't need to worry, we are more than grateful for master in providing us this opportunity to live a better life after we lost our sect to those devils, we will server master with complete sincerity." Zhu Long smiled when he heard Old King's words, "Complete sincerity it is." HE said as he leaped towards the Sect gates, as soon as he did, he heard the crowd roar outside from outside the sect. "Why are they so rowdy?"

"Well, I guess the story told by the emperor was something that made them even more energetic." Han Qiang smiled, "It wasn't only for you, they went crazy as soon as they saw me… But it looks like they also fear you, I didn't even feel any lustful gaze from them, you really are a scary one." Han Qiang laughed.

When the crowd saw Han Qiang laugh, they cheered even louder, Zhu long shook his head and looked towards the crowd, He put on a cold expression and said in a loud voice, "Silence!" The crowd quieted down instantly as soon as they heard Zhu Long, his voice was extremely intimidating to them.
