Peerless Taoist

These Star Lords hurriedly told them about their respective stars' situation, not holding back in the slightest.    

They were very clear that this was Lu Yu giving them a chance.    

Whether or not they would be able to gain a foothold under Lu Yu in the future would depend on this one time. If they didn't grasp this opportunity well, they wouldn't be able to turn the tables in the future no matter what.    

Lu Yu listened very carefully. He had asked about almost every star's situation.    

The situation was even more difficult than he thought.    

The forty-one stars of the Imperial Capital Domain had actually all fallen into a disaster.    

There were many places that were thousands of miles wide, and even the areas where Demonic Beast gathered could no longer be maintained. They had all run over to fight for territory with the human race.    

Under the rule of the various regions, large-scale disasters had occurred. Large areas of human settlements had turned into barren lands.    

This was a natural disaster.    

In the face of natural disasters, both cultivators and mortals were quite fragile.    

No matter what, the rain still did not fall from the sky. There were cultivators who went to various places to use water elemental magic, but they often drank poison to quench thirst. In the end, when their magic power was exhausted, they only watered a small portion of the farmland.    

Some places had severe floods and floods, and there were even places that were sealed in ice for thousands of kilometers. There were extremely vile scenes everywhere, as if a drought had appeared.    

The granaries in various places had long since been emptied.    

When Lu Yu led the Rising Dragon Army to this place, he had once sent many people to various places to buy grain.    

However, even many chambers of commerce did not have much grain left. It was a desolate scene everywhere.    

"Zhao Yuanyan, Zhao Yuanyan, you are forcing me into a dead end." Lu Yu murmured.    

Lu Yu knew very well that if he did not end the battle quickly, the huge Qianlong Army would have been devoured by hunger.    

Even the civilians on the 41 stars would be buried with them.    

"The source of the disaster is the disaster of the statue of God. From today onwards, the Imperial Capital will not allow any Tang Dynasty divine statue to exist! I will send people to assist. You will search every place to ensure that these statues are not left behind! " Lu Yu said in a deep voice.    

He had already noticed when he had just arrived at Dingan Star.    

The high and mighty statue of Li Jing seemed holy and glorious, but in reality, it was extracting the spirituality of the stars and using it to nourish itself.    

These statues were parasites on this land.    

This was a strategy that the Tang Dynasty had long prepared. They wanted to use these statues as a medium to extract the marrow of all the stars and squeeze out the last bit of value.    

The Tang Dynasty did not plan to operate here for a long time.    

"We will do as you say!" All the Star Lords agreed.    

They knew very well that the Tang Dynasty's statue had long since become a disaster.    

Although Tang Yu's war was fierce, the Tang army's attack was mostly aimed at military bases, so they had no way to interfere with most of the places.    

Even under the deliberate arrangements of the Tang Dynasty, the people started to worship the Tang Dynasty's gods crazily.    

These statues of the Tang Dynasty popped up like bamboo shoots after the rain, appearing and disappearing in an endless stream.    

If they did not take care of it earlier, it would become irreversible sooner or later.    

"In addition, abolish all taxes on agriculture and let it recover as soon as possible." Lu Yu said faintly.    

One of the Star Lords complimented, "General Lu loves the people as much as his son. It is really a blessing for the people. To delay the tax collection and let them ease up for a while is also a good idea. "    

"Didn't you hear what I said?"    

Lu Yu suddenly looked at him coldly. "What I said is, abolish the agricultural tax!"    

"From today onwards, all territories under the forty-first star palace of the imperial capital will be abolished with the agricultural tax! Furthermore, it will be permanently abolished, not postponed. Do you understand? "
