Li Yao was stunned for a long time and said, "If you insist on saying that, then there is no problem."
Li Linghai smiled and said: "Five hundred years before the empire, when the emperor was still in control of the power, the Heavenly Demon Tribunal, as His Majesty's sharpest sword, did have the absolute power to speak for itself, take life and death, kill first and then report later.
At that time, a member of the Heavenly Demon Tribunal The little "Witch Hunters" walking down the street can scare the ministers in the court and local leaders to tremble.
If someone's house is knocked on the door by "Witch Hunters" in the middle of the night, it is no exaggeration to say that they will be scared to death.
"However, with the decline of imperial power, the Demon Tribunal has become increasingly depressed and dilapidated.
What I just said is only a 'theoretical' possibility.
"Theoretically, the Heavenly Demon Tribunal can indeed accuse anyone of being a demon cultivator, take him back to his lair, torture him or even force him to confess, but in reality, if he really wants to arrest someone, it still depends on his strength.
"Before receiving the full support of our reformists, the Demon Tribunal is far from capable of arresting people everywhere, especially in cases involving the four Electoral Prince families.
If you dare to come and arrest people, they will beat you to death.
Burn it to ashes and spray it into the depths of the sea of stars.
What can you do?
"To put it bluntly, let alone wronging good people at will and beating them up, even if someone from the four Electoral Prince families really cooperated with the demon from outside the territory and became an out-and-out demon cultivator, the Demon Tribunal would still have to turn a blind eye. , pretending not to see?”
Li Yao was horrified: "Is there really someone... cooperating with an extraterrestrial demon?"
"You and I, immortal cultivators and cultivators can all cooperate.
As long as there are enough benefits, why can't we cooperate with extraterrestrial demons?"
Li Linghai said calmly, "The extraterrestrial demon is also a kind of intelligent life.
Intelligent life means the possibility of negotiation, compromise, transaction and peace.
In short, what I want to say is that even with the full support of the reformists, the power of the demon tribunal is now It is far from being restored to its heyday.
It only has the theoretical power to "take life and death, and impose sanctions at will".
It is not as arrogant and domineering as you think.
"But another organization is different and that is the Demon Hunters Association."
Li Yao thought for a while: "Understood, the empire's official organization specializes in dealing with monsters and monsters."
"That's right, ever since the Star Sea Empire collapsed ten thousand years ago when the demon clan and the demons joined forces, the demon clan and the demons have been the two major threats to human civilization.
After that, all the governments in the center of the star sea will form institutions to deal with these two threats.
Even the army, in the True Human Empire, is the Demon Tribunal and the Demon Hunter Association."
Li Linghai introduced, "Ten thousand years have passed.
Most of the time, the demons from outside the territory have disappeared.
At most, they occasionally come out to cause trouble.
The demon clan has also completely lost its organized and systematic civilized country.
We have driven it to the edge of the star sea.
It is estimated that it will soon...
Extinct?
"The Tribunal of the Demons and the Demon Hunters Association lost their usefulness and continued to transform into the two secret spy organizations of the empire.
The sharp weapons that used to deal with demons and demons in the past are now suitable for use on humans themselves.
"The first five hundred years of the empire were the era of the Demon Tribunal.
Relying on the support of His Majesty the Emperor, they always firmly suppressed the Demon Hunter Association.
This also led to the Demon Hunter Association turning to the four Electoral Prince families early to suppress them.
The secret war of the imperial power has made great contributions, and when rewards are given, the scale and level have increased.
In the next five hundred years, it has become a terrifying existence for all immortal cultivators in the empire, and everyone has changed their minds after hearing the news!
" Li Yao's mind was spinning, and he nodded and said: "Understood, can members of this 'Monster Hunter Association' also walk on the road arrogantly, accuse anyone who is unhappy of being a demon, drag them back, torture them, and beat them into a trap, and then 'click' 'Is decapitation completely legal?"
"Yes, if the Demon Tribunal is the sharpest sword of His Majesty the Emperor, then the Demon Hunters Association is the most loyal hunting dog of the four Electoral families.
Those who dare to disobey the orders of the four major families and violate their interests will inevitably be detained.
Being labeled as a 'demon spy' or a 'human-demon hybrid', his reputation is ruined and he is left to be slaughtered."
Li Linghai said, "In the past hundred years, the strength of the Dongfang Family has greatly expanded, extending its tentacles to various key areas of the empire.
Naturally, the Demon Hunter Association is also their key target for infiltration.

The president who just took office is a member of the Dongfang Family, which is more accurate.
He is said to be Dongfangwang's confidant.
"Now everyone's fleets are tightly restrained by each other, and no one dares to risk the disapproval of the world to start a civil war.
That is the Demon Tribunal and the Demon Hunter Association.
These old enemies have been entangled in the black battlefield for thousands of years, and they are about to meet again.
The war is on fire."
Li Linghai lightly gestured with a talisman formation, and the light and shadow flickered behind him.
The underground street map just now was replaced by the image of a young woman.
This woman...
The long, glossy black hair pours down like a waterfall, hanging down to her waist.
Although her facial features are small and exquisite, they are a bit plain overall, like a few faint ink dots on gray rice paper, leaving too little space. deep impression.
Even with Li Yao's memory and discernment, after seeing this three-dimensional photo, he still couldn't tell what features this woman has except for her head full of waterfall hair.
The long waterfall hair is obviously a cover-up and can be cut, dyed and styled in minutes.
It is completely worthless to focus attention on the hair.
Ever since Li Yao cultivated to the realm of divine transformation, he has never had such an "unpredictable" feeling towards a person.
It's really strange!
"This woman's name is Dongfang Mingyue, and she is the president of the Demon Hunters Association who just took office last month."
Li Linghai introduced, "I believe she is Dongfang Wang's spy chief, equivalent to Yue Wushuang's role on our side, and is also our most dangerous enemy in the next stage of the battle!
"You have been in the limelight in Xinghai and the Imperial Tomb recently.
You should have been noticed by Dongfangwang for a long time.
It is very likely that you will have to deal with this girl, so be careful!"
Li Yao stared at the photo of Dongfang Mingyue with great interest and murmured: "She looks really young.
What level is she in?
What is her background?
Do you have any detailed information to study it?"
Li Linghai slowly shook his head and said, "No."
Li Yao was slightly startled: "For such an important role, we should have collected all the information on whether our ancestors had hemorrhoids for eighteen generations.
What does 'none' mean?"
Li Linghai gave a bitter smile and said: "Do you still remember how I introduced you to others before?
I said you were a secret warrior raised by the reformists in the dark. kind.
"Many big forces will cultivate such dark warriors, who specialize in the most secretive, dirty and bloody deeds, known as 'Onimusha' and the like.
"Of course you are a fake, but Dongfang Mingyue is the real thing.
The dark warriors and onimusha raised by Dongfangwang had almost no information before she became the president of the Demon Hunter Association, but there is reason to believe that there are dozens of All the shocking cases are related to her, and she is the most proficient in hidden assassinations and secret operations!"
"So powerful?"
Li Yao said in disbelief, "Is it true that there is no information at all about her?"
"No, she is like a shadow, a shadow emerging from the depths of the dark swamp.
No one knows what state she is in."
Li Linghai changed the topic and said, "However, a year and a half ago, I met her once in the palace.
At that time, she was just a little palace maid."
Li Yao opened his eyes wide: "What?"
"The four Electoral Prince families will all have spies in the palace.
Including myself, it was the Li family who first planted spies in the palace.
Therefore, she was ordered by Dongfang Wang to go to the palace to perform any tasks as a palace maid.
Not surprising.”
Li Linghai frowned slightly and murmured, "It's just that when I glanced at her casually, I felt a faint sense of vigilance.

It's really strange."
"Her Royal Highness the Queen is actually wary of Dongfang Mingyue?"
Li Yao was shocked.
He knew very well how terrifying Li Linghai's fighting power was.
Even if he was not the "first master in the true human empire", it would be absolutely no problem for him to rank among the top ten or even the top five.
Such a peerless master who cultivates the emperor's magical power and possesses the body protection of the Purple Flame True Dragon Qi, is he actually wary of Dongfang Mingyue?
In other words, even if Dongfang Mingyue is not as powerful as Li Linghai, it is at least possible that it will pose a threat to Li Linghai!
Li Yao pondered: "Your Highness the Queen, to be honest, have you ever had a 'sense of caution' towards me...?"
Li Linghai thought for a while and said, "It seems not."
Li Yao said in disbelief: "No, not once, not even for a second?"
Li Linghai shook his head and said, "No, you shouldn't pose a threat to me other than acting as a pig teammate and holding me back."
Li Yao sighed: "Okay, that is to say, everyone is also a 'ghost warrior in the dark', but Dongfang Mingyue should be a little more powerful than me?"
"Yes, but you don't need to be discouraged."
Li Linghai explained, "I have carefully evaluated it afterwards.
Even if Dongfang Mingyue is really stronger than you, I may not be able to kill you.
If the two of you really fight, there is a high probability that you can cut off the tail of the gecko and run away."
Li Yao: "...Oh."
"In short, during this period, the Demon Tribunal and the Demon Hunters Association will go into full-scale war, which will consume a lot of magic weapons and require a lot of attention from you and Master Jin Tianzong."
Li Linghai said, "As for Dongfang Mingyue's information, we will always collect more information in this dark war, and it would be even better if you could personally test her capabilities.
"In the final analysis, this massive dark war is just a feint and cover-up.
When the time is right and most of the opponent's forces have been mobilized away from the mountain, we will take down Dongfang Renxin's secret research institute at lightning speed , find the key evidence, and of course we must catch him.
Then the avalanche of the entire Dongfang family will be unstoppable.
Is there any problem?
" "have."
Li Yao raised his hand, "May I ask why Her Royal Highness the Queen said that I am a pig teammate?
When did I hold you back?
Also, I really, really did not pose a threat to you at all?"
