Chapter 291 Rebellion British Prime Minister's Office, House of Lords Chamber. "... adjourned." As the voice of the Prime Minister, no, the Governor Richard Sutherland, the patriarch of the Sutherland family, fell, the originally quiet House of Lords suddenly became noisy. "Did you hear that, man?" Sitting in the front row on the west side of the House of Lords Hall, a young man wearing a tweed coat, with blond curly hair and blue eyes, closed the notebook in his hand and was about to stand up when he heard someone behind him speak to him. Hearing the young man behind him speaking obviously to him, he couldn't help but stop and look behind him in confusion. At this time, a square-faced young man with short hair, deep eye sockets, dark gray eyes with light blue, wearing a reddish-brown leather jacket, appeared, holding the pillow of his seat with both hands. The first time he saw the young man, Richard Avery frowned instinctively. He really didn't like the frivolous person in front of him, his dress, his speech, his behavior, his expression, but out of politeness, he still asked, "Who are you?" "Hey," the frivolous young man seemed not to care at all. He jumped up from his seat exaggeratedly, stretched out his hand towards Richard Avery, and said, "Damon Harvey, 22, male, brave and warlike, with a strong interest in military affairs!"
"Of course, it is also the future hope of the Harvey family." Richard Avery instinctively leaned back slightly, looked at the hand stretched out in front of him, and his expression returned to being cold. He had disliked the other party's frivolous behavior before, but out of politeness, he still wanted to have a conversation with the other party, but now he has no interest at all. As far as he knew, among the Harvey family, there was only one most famous one in the whole of Britain, and that was William Harvey! A great doctor, his family is also a medical family, and they are extremely famous even in the capital. Although the man in front of him had the last name Harvey, not even a hair on his body showed the temperament that a child of a medical family should have. As for why such a person would appear in the House of Lords, he was not interested. Since the system of the king was abolished, the House of Lords has long been open to the public. It was not uncommon for some unscrupulous people to come in and sit in on the monthly meetings and watch the governor and other officials at various levels governing the country. Well, he is also a student here to audit the class. He is a student at a London university and plans to enter politics in the future to find a way out for his family. However, looking at the appearance, speech and behavior of the guy in front of him, he could be sure that he was a street thug. His time is precious and he has no time to waste it here. "I have something else to do, so excuse me." After saying that, Richard Avery turned and left. "Hey, man, I haven't finished talking yet." Seeing Richard Avery ignoring him, Damon immediately jumped over the front seat and quickly chased after him, saying, "You haven't told me your name yet, this is not polite... Richard!" Having said that, Damon simply took the initiative to call out the name. At this time, the two had already walked to the door of the House of Lords Hall. When his name was called, Richard finally stopped. "You know me?" Hearing this, Damon put his hands on his hips and smiled, "Of course, we are alumni." "Your Majesty..." Richard felt it was ridiculous to see the gangster-like young man in front of him, who was from the same school as him and was also a student of the London Academy. After saying "Emperor", he shook his head and turned to leave. He felt that he needed to go to the Ministry of Rites through the spiritual network to complain about whether the school leaders had accepted money. "Richard Avery, I have been following you for a long time. Last month, I read the post you published on the school's intranet titled "Spirit Stone Energy Management and Regulation"!" Damon followed Richard in a hurry, ignoring the impatient looks of the people around him, and talked incessantly.
"Ding ding ding." After leaving the House of Lords Hall, dark clouds rolled in, a drizzle of rain fell, and in the distance, a fairy track slowly approached. The two crossed the road and successfully boarded the fairy track in the heavy rain. "Honestly speaking, you write very well, but I think there are still some flaws, it's too superficial..." There were many people on the Immortal Track, so the two found a seat at the back. Richard's face was already looking a little bad as he listened to the noise of the fly beside him. Now when he heard the other party say that his views were superficial, his face suddenly looked a little ugly. Regarding the post "Lingshi Energy Management and Regulation", his original intention was to regard it as a stepping stone to his official career, but to be on the safe side, he showed it to his teacher first and asked for comments. But the result was that the teacher completely denied it. The teacher's comments on him were completely critical, and words like "superficial", "flashy", "naive as a child" etc. hurt him badly. Unwilling to admit defeat, he posted his "stepping stone" on the school's intranet for others to comment on. The result was what he wanted. Many like-minded people expressed their approval of his current management and regulation of British Spirit Stone Energy. Of course, some people also expressed criticism. Unfortunately, none of his teacher or other teachers in the school agreed. Even his father, the patriarch of the Ivory family, criticized him harshly after reading his post. He was proud of himself and thought that once he submitted the letter, it would surely attract the attention of countless officials, even the six ministries and even the cabinet would cast their eyes on him. He might even be transferred directly to the capital to study in the Imperial Academy! Such a stepping stone was denied by these people! Although there are many students who support him, he does not need their support just for fun. What he needs is the support of political officials! Now, when he hears someone criticizing his work to his face, one can imagine the anger in his heart. "Swish!" Damon was still talking incessantly. The Immortal Track had arrived at the station. The hot wheels moved across the track, evaporating the rain water and raising a cloud of white steam. "We have arrived at Westminster Bridge Street. Please get off in an orderly manner..." A gentle female voice sounded on the fairy track. "Enough!" Richard said in a very restrained tone, glaring at Damon fiercely, and said: "Come with me if you dare!" After saying that, he turned around and got off the car towards the back. After leaving the House of Lords, the Fairy Track only traveled one stop to Westminster Bridge Street, which is just on the west side of the Palace of Westminster and spans the entire Thames. Since the United Kingdom was incorporated into the Ming Dynasty, the name Britain was replaced by the regional name Britain. After it became the British Administration of the Ming Dynasty, the name of the Palace of Westminster was also cancelled. After that, the Palace of Westminster was officially named the House of Lords Chamber. However, the name of the street was retained in memory of the Palace of Westminster. Westminster Bridge is also the best place to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Thames. People often come here to paint, play music and date. In the heavy rain, Richard Avery's tweed coat was soaked, but he really didn't care. At this time, there was no one on the bridge, after all, the rain was too heavy. "I have cultivated my Immortal Martial Arts to the third level of the acquired realm," Richard said coldly as he looked at Damon getting off the car. "It's best if you're a cultivator or a warrior, but even if you're not, I'll teach you a lesson."
"Calm down, man..." Damon wanted to say something, but then he saw a figure flash in front of him. Richard had already come close to him, and his fist was infinitely enlarged! "Dang!" However, just when Richard's fist was only an inch away from Damon, a sound like metal hitting each other was heard, and a curtain of light appeared in front of Damon. And on Damon's neck, a Buddhist bead was flashing a faint light. "Magic weapon?!" Richard was surprised when he saw this scene: "Are you a cultivator?" "Not only that, I am also a third-level post-natal warrior!" Damon raised his foot and kicked Richard, while smiling, "This is called reciprocity!" "Hmph!" Richard was not afraid either. He raised his hand and punched out. There was a dull "bang" sound. The two men each took a few steps back and then stood still. However, Richard was looking at Damon in surprise at this moment. "Did you find out?" Damon put his hands in the pockets of his jacket and looked at Richard with a smile on his face. "The spiritual energy that burst out at that moment was pure and gentle. No, to be exact, there is no such thing as gentle spiritual energy. It just varies according to the technique. But there is only one kind of spiritual energy that is violent and overbearing..." "That's the cultivator who uses spirit stones." "However, the fluctuation of spiritual power just now is at least the cultivation level of the middle stage of Qi training." Thinking of this, Richard looked up at Damon and said solemnly: "Who are you?" "After Britain was incorporated into the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court promulgated the 'One Dynasty, Two Systems' law, which stipulated that the people could freely choose whether to use spirit stones for cultivation. However, that was the rule in the 100th year of Jiajing." "It's only the 140th year of Jiajing. How could you possibly raise your cultivation to the middle stage of Qi training in 40 years?" "Then there are only two answers," Richard said, his tone gradually becoming colder, "Or, you secretly used other spiritual resources to practice without permission." "Or, you have researched a way to eliminate the disadvantages of spirit stones." "I think your first possibility is the highest!" "If it's the first one, then your age doesn't match, and you're certainly not a student at a London university." "This means that your family has been smuggling other spiritual resources for a long time!" "Where do these spiritual resources come from?" Richard spoke faster and faster, and a photo stone appeared in his hand. "In the ninety-ninth year of the Jiajing reign, smuggling of Lingshi occurred in Nanjing. After investigation, it was found that Lingshi was returning to the Ming Dynasty from various countries overseas." "Afterwards, the imperial court was furious and conducted a nationwide investigation to clean up the spiritual stones!" "I now reasonably suspect that the reason why your family possesses spiritual resources other than spiritual stones is that they smuggled spiritual stones from some immortal cultivation families and gangs in the Ming Dynasty!" "You'd better give me an explanation right now, otherwise as soon as I slide my finger, it won't be an ordinary constable who comes over, but a Jinyiwei!" "If you want to kill me in an instant," Richard said, confidently, "you can't do it yet." As he spoke, spiritual energy began to fluctuate around Richard, but it was much weaker than Damon's. Even his cultivation in the way of immortality was only at the initial stage of Qi training. However, as Richard analyzed, overseas countries were incorporated into the Ming Dynasty, and ordinary people became citizens of the Ming Dynasty. They were only allowed to use normal spiritual resources for cultivation for forty years. It takes forty years to practice from scratch. Even those with good innate talents can only be at the initial stage of Qi training at best. The fact that Richard could reach the initial stage of Qi training was related to his own extraordinary destiny, and naturally it was also related to the family behind him.
In fact, for example, among the families and immortal cultivators in the British Governorate, many people who have some connections, are well-informed, and can get in touch with the upper class understand this in their hearts. The spiritual stone is simply a political means used by the Ming Dynasty to deal with other countries. Now all the countries have become the governors of the Ming Dynasty, and the people have become the subjects of the Ming Dynasty. In this way, it is natural that normal spiritual resources will be gradually opened up to some small families or individuals with talents in certain aspects. These small families are also sensible, and are happy to block normal resources under the hints and warnings of the upper families. After all, the spiritual energy factory makes huge profits, and people are inherently bad. After they get ashore, they naturally won't expect the world to be harmonious. Therefore, these small families would be even happier to make Britain a paradise for spiritual stone cultivation. In this way, there will be a steady stream of spiritual stone practitioners entering the spiritual energy factory to work for them and earn money. "Pa pa pa." After listening to Richard's quick and accurate analysis and looking at the spiritual energy bursting out in front of him, Damon immediately clapped his hands and said: "As expected of you, the heir of the Avery family!" "I can answer all your questions, but I think we should find a quiet place to talk. I believe that after talking to me, you will definitely change your mind." Damon Harvey put his hands in his pockets, looking nonchalant and relaxed. He didn't seem to be worried at all that Richard would report him to the Royal Guards. Richard was a smart man. Seeing Damon's confident look, he couldn't help but become suspicious. "Also, I'm sure you're also very curious about why I said that the post you posted on the school's internal network was superficial. In fact, the reason you were angry was just because I hit the nail on the head." Hearing Damon's words, Richard's expression was uncertain, but he did not act impulsively. At this time, he had returned to the future. The person in front of him approached him deliberately to anger him. Moreover, the other party has been observing me for more than a day or two. "Let's go." Damon said, turned around and left first. Seeing this, Richard hesitated for a moment and then followed him. An hour later, in the suburbs of London. In the empty church, Damon and Richard looked at the statue of Emperor Wanshou sitting on the throne at the top, and his God Jehovah and his Son Jesus on both sides. "Taishang Daluo Celestial Being/Purple Extreme Immortal, Holy Wisdom and Brilliant Spirit/In charge of the Three Origins/Certified by Yuxu/General Manager of the Five Thunders/Xuandu Realm/Emperor Wanshou, may your holy body rest in peace..." The two began to pray devoutly. "Please sit down." After praying, Damon sat down first. Richard hesitated for a moment and sat next to him. "Well, there's a lot to say. Where should I start?" Damon scratched his head, and after a moment's hesitation, he said, "Let's talk about what you're most interested in first. I did read your post." "You believe that there is an overabundance of spiritual stones in Britain and a lack of management. You want to limit the use of spiritual stone energy to the development of the spiritual energy industry, while prohibiting the public from using spiritual stones." "After that, gradually complete the 'de-spiritualization'. Tsk..." Damon nodded, looked at Richard, and said, "I dare say that your behavior is courting death." "Don't get excited." Seeing Richard's expression was not right, Damon immediately smiled and said, "My words are not unreasonable." "You know, including your own family and the governor's family, everyone is a vested interest in the spirit stones. Without spirit stones, there would be no spirit energy factory." "How do all the families profit?" "The imperial court has already begun to build spiritual veins in various prefectures, states and counties in Britain. There are also spiritual veins in London. In the future, we can use the spiritual energy generated by the spiritual veins to maintain the operation of the factory..." "No, no, no." However, before Richard could finish his words, Damon immediately shook his head and interrupted him, saying, "The effect of the spirit stone is better than the spirit vein or even the spirit source." "However, the spiritual energy generated by the spiritual veins are all normal spiritual resources. These resources belong to all families, big and small."
"These families all want to develop their immortal races. If this is the case, sooner or later, normal spiritual resources will not be enough to share." "So," Damon said with a smile on his face. He looked at the stunned Richard and said, "You want the spiritual energy of the spiritual vein, or even the spiritual source, to be returned to industry?" "You are digging up the roots of all families and destroying the interests of all the middle and upper classes, including your own family." "So, your teacher, your family, and everyone with a discerning eye say that you are childish." "In other words," Damon's joking face suddenly turned serious. He stared at Richard and said, "You, Richard Avery, are an ungrateful person!" "You are betraying your class!" "Not only that, no one will appreciate your kindness!" "Even those who know that spirit stones are harmful but still flock to them, and even those who are unwilling to give up spirit stones even though the court has allowed them to use normal resources for cultivation, they will not allow you to do so, even if it is for their own good." "In fact, you are not a good person either," Damon chuckled, "You do have a good political sense. Your real goal is to accumulate political resources and background." "In other words, your proposal to regulate the spirit stone energy is only for your own political future. It's just that your naive idea has touched the interests of everyone." "If you really want to enter politics and become a powerful figure, there is only one way!" Looking at Damon's raised finger, Richard, who was struck by what he said, subconsciously asked, "What road?" "Oh," Damon chuckled and said, "It's very simple. Overthrow the Sutherland family, the Blackwell family, the Leicester family, the Norfolk family, and the Suffolk family!" "There are also the Fairfax family and the Grant family, these seven powerful families that control Britain!" "If you can get your family to the top, you can become a real big shot and realize your own governing philosophy!" "In other words, rebel!" "..." (End of this chapter)
