Chapter 774: These People of the Fuyao Kingdom Speak Like They're From the Shu Territory (I)
Daoist Cangqiu left in a rage.
…
Earlier…
Han Lingshou's response truly caught Daoist Cangqiu off guard.
The Penglai Supreme Sect had maintainedntrol over the Fuyao Kingdom for centuries, abusing it like a tyrant. The Fuyao Kingdom had never dared to resist. For the people of the Fuyao Kingdom, being submissive to the Penglai Supreme Sect had already bme snd nature.
So, when Daoist Cangsheng called Han Lingshou forward, he had not evennsidered the possibility that Han Lingshou would receive an answer he didn't like.
The divine light in Daoist Cangsheng's eyes made him look especially imposing as he cast a furious glare at Han Lingshou. Nevertheless, Han Lingshou held his ground, meeting Daoist Cangsheng's gaze with unwavering determination.
Even arnered rabbit would bite back, let alone the ruler of a kingdom. It wasn't just his bonds with Chu Liang, Lin Bei, and Xue Lingxue that gave Han Lingshou theurage to defy Daoist Cangqiu. It was also the flames of anger burning in his heart.
For generations, the Han Clan of the Fuyao Kingdom had remained loyal and subservient to the Penglai Supreme Sect. Yet, Daoist Cangqiu had turned a blind eye to Jing Wuya's treasonous actions and even protected him. If Chu Liang had not intervened and stopped Jing Wuya, the Fuyao Kingdom would have already fallen into his treacherous hands.
Even then, nothing would change for the Penglai Supreme Sect. It would remain inntrol andntinue looking down on the Fuyao Kingdom. The Penglai Supreme Sect certainly would not bother doling out justice for Han Lingshou, who would have just been another dead king in a long line of dead kings.
