When the commoners standing on both sides of the street heard King Zhou come out, they personally called the young man in green teacher!
Many of the commoners who knew about it immediately became excited. They discussed among themselves,
"So it's the state preceptor!"
"The state preceptor is back. The licentious, tyrannical, and lawless king is finally under control.”
"That's right! The Imperial Advisor was not only the former Emperor's entrusted minister, but he also addressed the former Emperor as his brother. The King was even considered the Imperial Advisor's nephew.”
"Imperial Preceptor revealed that Great Shang's golden dragon is a powerful immortal.”
"I didn't believe the rumors that the state preceptor was immortal, but now that I see that he's still a young man, I believe it.”
Of course, there were also many young commoners who did not know Zheng Lei. They all asked who the state preceptor was.
The elders around them explained to them respectfully.
"Does that mean that our hard days are coming to an end?”
After hearing the explanation, some people were puzzled and disbelieving.
"Yes, I am. With the state preceptor, he would definitely be able to control the king.”
Those old men were full of confidence.
At the side, when they found out that this green robed youth was the legendary Grand Shang Imperial Preceptor.
The black fox demon Su Daji's heart was filled with fear. She could not help but shrink her body behind King Zhou.
Over the years, she had heard many of her clansmen say that many of them had stayed in Zhaoge, and some of them were even immortals.
The Golden Dragon of National Fortune and the Nation Protecting Divine Artifact that could restrain the Monster Race were all set up by this youth in front of him, the Imperial Preceptor of Great Shang.
If the Sage hadn't used a secret technique to hide her demonic aura, she would have followed in the footsteps of her race.
Just the magic treasures and arrangements he left behind had such terrifying power. It was difficult to imagine how powerful the other party was.
Now that she had met the other party, it was difficult to determine if the other party could see through the disguise that the Sage had put on. If she was seen through, then she would probably lose her life today.
The general beside King Zhou was the same. After hearing Zheng Lei's identity, he was so scared that he broke out in cold sweat.
One had to know that this person was said to be even more famous than Grand Preceptor Wen Zhong. He was the Grand Preceptor of Great Shang who had been bestowed by the previous Emperor to supervise the Great King.
If this person was unhappy, he could even hit the king, let alone him.
"Kneel down!"
Zheng Lei looked at King Zhou expressionlessly and shouted without looking at the black fox demon and the general behind King Zhou.
"Teacher…"
King Zhou looked at Zheng Lei with a hint of begging. He probably did not want to kneel in front of the commoners to avoid embarrassment.
However, Zheng Lei did not seem to notice the begging expression on his face. He said expressionlessly again,
"Kneel down!"
King Zhou knew that he had no choice but to kneel today.
He gritted his teeth, bent his knees, and knelt on the ground.
Even though he was kneeling on the ground, he did not feel any hatred towards Zheng Lei.
It was because he did not dare to.
However, King Zhou, who had been a king for more than ten years, had always accepted others to kneel before him. He had never knelt before anyone. Now that he was kneeling in front of Zheng Lei, he felt a piercing pain in his heart.
"What's wrong? You can't take it anymore just because you kneel in front of me? What about him? What about this old man? How did he feel when your guards kicked him to the ground and injured him? He struggled but could not get up.”
Zheng Lei pointed at the old man who had fallen to the ground and was moaning while clutching his injured right knee.
"As expected! Imperial Preceptor can discipline His Majesty!"
"That's right! Fortunately, there was still the Imperial Preceptor. Otherwise, our Great Shang would be finished.”
"That's right! Thinking about what the king had done all these years, it was really chilling!”
……
Zheng Lei then pointed to the two sides of the street. There were originally only a few hundred commoners watching, but after hearing that the Imperial Advisor had appeared to discipline the king and make him kneel, they were shocked.
The surrounding commoners kept rushing over, almost filling both sides of the street.
"Hear that? Did you hear what they said?"
"They are saying that you have failed in your duty."
Zheng Lei looked at the discussions of the people beside him and pointed at King Zhou's nose to reprimand him.
The accusations of the surrounding people flowed into King Zhou's ears, making the pain in King Zhou's heart even worse.
His heart was in extreme pain, but he did not dare to get angry at Zheng Lei. Then, he had the urge to kill. He thought that this country was his and no one could oppose him.
If there was a chance in the future, he would definitely kill all these people who dared to oppose him.
"As the king, as the king of a country, look at what you've done in the ten years I've been away.”
"Spoiling crafty sycophants, distancing himself from virtuous officials, coveting beauty, domineering, headstrong and tyrannical. Just now, he actually allowed his guards to beat up an old man who had fallen on the street. If I hadn't arrived just in time, this old man would have been finished.”
Without waiting for King Zhou to speak, Zheng Lei rebuked angrily again.
He saw the killing intent in King Zhou's eyes and a whip-shaped strange weapon appeared in his hand. This was the Mingjun Shuo that the former King Di Yi had given him.
It had the privilege of beating up incompetent emperors and treacherous officials. Later, it was refined into an ordinary high-grade Dao artifact by Zheng Lei.
Pa!
Pa!
Pa!
Pa!
……
Zheng Lei held the Spear of the Wise Ruler and directly whipped King Zhou on the street.
While Zheng Lei was beating King Zhou, the ministers of Zhaoge heard that Zhao Lei, the Nation Master, had returned and taught King Zhou a lesson in the street. They all came to the street and stood in the crowd to watch.
This included Prime Minister Bigan, Imperial Uncle Jizi, Wei Zi, Fei Zhong, You Hun, and other treacherous officials.
Bi Gan, Jizi, and Wei Zi were all loyal officials. They were naturally very happy that Zheng Lei taught King Zhou a lesson. However, Fei Zhong and You Hun, the two treacherous officials, were very worried.
However, they did not dare to stop Zheng Lei. After all, Zheng Lei dared to hit the king. If they went up, wouldn't they be killed directly?
Zheng Lei gave King Zhou thirty-seven lashes in a row. King Zhou was covered in injuries.
After the fight, Zheng Lei took back the Spear of the Wise Ruler and asked King Zhou,""How is it? I've given you thirty-seven lashes. Are you convinced?”
King Zhou, who had never been whipped by anyone since he was young, did not dare to hate Zheng Lei even though he was grimacing in pain.
Because he knew that it was because of the killing intent he had towards these commoners that Zheng Lei was angered and whipped him.
"It's only right and proper for Teacher to punish me. I'm convinced," said King Zhou immediately.”
"I'm afraid you don't dare to refuse, right?" Zheng Lei said.”
"I am indeed convinced," said King Zhou.”
"I'm only giving you a small punishment today. I hope you can learn from it."”
