Chapter 398: Star Lord Mo's New Rules
At this moment, the Starry Sky Palace was packed. It was the first time it had been so lively since Star Lord Chi Tong held a large-scale meeting here several years ago after the Half-Moon Immortal Palace appeared.
Mo Wuji sat in the main seat of the Starry Sky Palace, with Su Xuan and Yan Ze on his left and right. Chi Huoer and Chang Sai stood respectfully behind him.
Before Mo Wuji spoke, the Starry Sky Palace was silent. Everyone here knew what this Star Lord had done not long ago. He single-handedly defeated hundreds of millions of Starry Sky Beasts with a lightning technique, reversing the situation on the Starry Sky Battlefield.
If some sects had not taken this new Star Lord seriously before, no one dared to think that way now.
Mo Wuji's gaze swept down. When the alien races bombarded the Starry Sky Hall, the sect leaders and strongmen of the major sects were nowhere to be seen. But now that the Starry Sky alien races had been defeated, the sect leaders and family heads of these sects had arrived very quickly, almost without exception.
Withdrawing his gaze, Mo Wuji sneered inwardly. As expected, there was no getting up early without profit. Previously, he, the Star Lord, had not paid much attention to the affairs of True Star. Besides, he had only relied on cannons to recapture the Starry Sky Hall, so many people did not regard him as a true Star Lord.
Or they regarded him as a second Chi Tong, even less than Chi Tong in status. Chi Tong could at least rally support by virtue of his position as Star Lord, but because he did not manage the affairs of True Star, many sects did not take him, the Star Lord, seriously.
"I have summoned everyone here, and I believe you all know the reason. Just now, the Gu Nuo Star cultivators and the Wolf King Mountain demon beasts jointly attacked the Starry Sky Hall. Although my True Star army drove away the alien races, it paid a heavy price. My True Star cultivator army of 4.19 million was reduced to 1.91 million after the battle. As the Star Lord of the Star Emperor Mountain of True Star, I bear a great responsibility."
Mo Wuji's tone was somewhat low. Many sect leaders who heard Mo Wuji's words lowered their heads and remained silent. They also knew that Mo Wuji was hinting that they had not taken action. However, this kind of thing was too normal. When Star Lord Chi Tong was in charge, wasn't this how they had always dealt with the Starry Sky battles?
If they went all out every time, who would compensate for the losses of their sects?
Mo Wuji was amused when he saw that no one was speaking, not even acknowledging their own responsibility. He was, after all, the boss of True Star, and he had stood up to admit his mistake, but not a single subordinate said they also had a responsibility. These guys thought he was easy to bully.
Taking a deep breath, Mo Wuji said again, "Although my Star Emperor Mountain, Righteous Qi Gate, Profound Smoke Sword Sect, and Starry Sky cultivator army jointly drove away the alien races this time, no one can guarantee that the alien races will not come again next time. What's more, there is also the Gate Master of Broken Gate and the Starry Sky Wolf King. Therefore, I have decided to re-establish the rules of the Starry Sky Hall and Wind Xiao City."
Some shrewd sect leaders already felt that something was wrong. It was true that only the Righteous Qi Gate and the Profound Smoke Sword Sect had come to help this time, but as a Star Lord, it was not right to mention only these two sects here. This was tantamount to offending them openly.
Mo Wuji did not care how these sect leaders considered it, and continued, "In order to prevent alien races from infiltrating True Star, I will re-plan the array gates of the Starry Sky Wharf. There are nine array gates at the Starry Sky Wharf that lead to the Starry Sky Battlefield, seven of which are specially for the Starry Sky cultivator army to provide support during the Starry Sky battles. Only two gates will be opened at ordinary times, one for entry and one for exit."
No one spoke, as opening a few gates did not cause any loss to anyone.
"In the future, any cultivator entering or leaving the Starry Sky Battlefield must rely on a new Starry Sky Identity Token, one token per person. Anyone who participated in this Starry Sky battle can receive this new Starry Sky Identity Token for free and have the right to enter and leave at any time."
Mo Wuji's words made many people feel that something was wrong. The Starry Sky Battlefield could be entered and left at any time, with at most a verification of the Starry Sky Token. These Starry Sky Tokens could be obtained by these sects and strongmen at any time, so why suddenly change the identity jade token? And listening to the Star Lord's words, it seemed that there would be a charge?
Mo Wuji did not care what other sects thought and continued, "Because the Star Emperor Mountain, Righteous Qi Gate, and Profound Smoke Sword Sect participated in this battle, all disciples of the Righteous Qi Gate and the Profound Smoke Sword Sect can pay to receive the new Identity Token and enjoy the right to enter and leave the Starry Sky Battlefield at any time, without additional fees."
"May I ask Star Lord Mo, what about the cultivators of the other sects?" A middle-aged man stood up, cupped his fists, and asked.
Chang Sai, who had already been authorized by Mo Wuji, shouted angrily, "What are you? Without the permission of the Star Lord, you dare to ask your own questions? You didn't even report your name before asking the question. Get out of Wind Xiao City."
Everyone was shocked. Get out of Wind Xiao City? Not get out of the Starry Sky Palace? This meant that this guy not only had to leave the Starry Sky Palace, but also had to leave the Starry Sky Hall, and even be driven out of Wind Xiao City. Just because he asked a question without the Star Lord's permission? This was too shameless.
The middle-aged man who asked the question was immediately stunned. What was this attitude? He was also an elder of a sect, a Human Immortal Layer 1 existence.
Another man standing next to the elder quickly stood up and said respectfully, cupping his fists, "Lun Han, the Sect Leader of Chuan Liang Sect, has something to say."
Before Lun Han could get permission to speak, Chi Huoer had already taken a step forward, directly picked up the middle-aged man next to Lun Han, lifted his hand, and threw him out of the Starry Sky Hall. Then Chi Huoer said coldly, "Send this person out of Wind Xiao City and revoke his qualification to enter Wind Xiao City and the Starry Sky Hall in the future."
"Yes!" A response came from outside, followed by the sound of footsteps moving away.
Some sect leaders felt a chill in their hearts. Many people recognized the guy who was just thrown out, Si Jin, the elder of Chuan Liang Sect, who was at Human Immortal Layer 1 strength. A Human Immortal Layer 1 being was thrown out as soon as he was said to be thrown out. But that was not the point. The point was that Si Jin was deprived of the opportunity to enter the Starry Sky Hall.
Without the opportunity to enter the Starry Sky Hall, there would be no opportunity to enter the Starry Sky Battlefield. If he could not enter the Starry Sky Battlefield, it could be said that Si Jin's life was destined to end here. The cultivation resources of True Star were limited, and staying in True Star would not give him a chance to stand out. What's more, the top auctions of the entire True Mo Continent were held in the Starry Sky Hall. Even if you had spiritual stones in True Star, you could not buy good things.
After Si Jin was thrown out, Mo Wuji said faintly, "Chang Sai, don't interfere with people speaking. There is freedom of speech here. Anyone can speak freely without my permission."
"Yes, Star Lord." Chang Sai quickly responded with a bow.
Everyone knew that the Si Jin who was thrown out was a method of the Star Lord killing the chicken to warn the monkey. This was to give others a show of strength first. It seemed that they had angered this young Star Lord by playing dead during this alien race invasion. Thinking of what this Star Lord had done before, many people felt uneasy.
Originally, Lun Han stood up to intercede for Elder Si Jin. Now that Si Jin was thrown out and even driven out of Wind Xiao City, Lun Han had to swallow the words of intercession and said, "May I ask Star Lord, what should we sects do to enter and leave the Starry Sky Battlefield in the future?"
This was not only a matter of concern to his Chuan Liang Sect, but also to the other sects. It could be said that any sect in True Mo Continent that wanted to develop and grow must have the opportunity to enter and leave the Starry Sky Battlefield. Otherwise, the sect would eventually disappear and be submerged in the long river of True Mo Continent's history.
Lun Han's words were almost what most people here wanted to ask. Everyone's eyes fell on Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji nodded. "This is also the next thing I want to say. Any other cultivator is qualified to enter the Starry Sky Battlefield, but to obtain a new Starry Sky Identity Token, you must obtain the recommendation of a disciple from the Star Emperor Mountain, the Righteous Qi Gate, or the Profound Smoke Sword Sect. In addition, you must pay a certain fee according to your own cultivation level each time you enter and leave the Starry Sky Battlefield. At the same time, if you stay in the Starry Sky Battlefield for more than a month, the fee will be recalculated. If you still do not return after one month of recalculation, it will continue to be recalculated, and so on."
"This is not fair!" A burly man suddenly stood up, his aura sharp. Mo Wuji knew at a glance that this was at least a strongman in the late stage of Human Immortal Layer 5.
Seeing Mo Wuji's gaze sweep over, the man suddenly felt a chill all over his body. He quickly bowed his fists and tried to slow down his tone, saying, "You Zodao, the Sect Leader of Da Luo Sect, greets Star Lord. Star Lord, this regulation is really unfair. If this is the case, I suspect that True Mo Continent will have internal strife, and many sects will be unwilling to accept it. My True Star is now in a time of troubles. If there is internal strife again, I am afraid it will collapse from the inside."
Mo Wuji nodded. "Sect Leader You's words remind me. Is Palace Lord Luo here?"
A golden-haired young man with a long spear on his back immediately stood up. "Luo Yuchen is here, please give your orders, Star Lord."
In all his years in Star Emperor Mountain, Luo Yuchen had never felt so happy. The current Star Lord fought whenever he wanted to, without being timid. The depression and frustration he had felt when following Star Lord Chi Tong had long since disappeared without a trace. Because he was in a happy mood and fought whenever he wanted to, his cultivation realm had also broken through one after another.
"You lead 500,000 cultivator army to guard Wind Xiao City. Once any sect wants to cause trouble in True Star, level it directly without mercy. Oh, right, the Righteous Qi Gate and the Profound Smoke Sword Sect have made great contributions in this battle. If any other sect secretly attacks them, destroy them directly." Mo Wuji said without any expression.
"Yes." Luo Yuchen responded immediately.
The others felt a sinking in their hearts. This was waiting for the major sects to have internal strife and then find an excuse to level them. Without access to the Starry Sky Battlefield, they would not be able to obtain cultivation resources or opportunities. They would not be able to avoid internal strife.
It was conceivable that the Righteous Qi Gate and the Profound Smoke Sword Sect would rise at the fastest speed under this system of the Star Lord, and might even soon become one of the top sects in True Mo Continent. This Star Lord Mo was clearly supporting the Righteous Qi Gate and the Profound Smoke Sword Sect and attacking the other sects.
"Star Lord Mo, everyone is a sect of True Mo Continent. Why does Star Lord treat us differently?" You Zodao asked, suppressing the anger in his heart.
