"Those who recognize the times are true heroes."
"Please, Great King, reconsider."
The three advisers urged once more.
Then they bowed deeply to Zhao Feng.
"Lord Wu’an."
"Our three families are willing to surrender."
"Please give the scholars of Great Chu a chance."
"If our three families submit, Qin can effortlessly take over the cities of Great Chu."
"We plead with Lord Wu’an for acceptance," the three earnestly looked at Zhao Feng.
However.
Listening to the words of the three families, Zhao Feng’s eyes filled with ridicule.
"Even if Chu has only three households, Qin will surely be destroyed by Chu."
"Ridiculous, utterly ridiculous."
"You only use this slogan to resist Qin and rally the people of Chu."
"Aren’t these three families just the aristocratic families from the Three Kingdoms period?"
"They prioritize their family’s interests above all, disregarding the nation’s interests entirely."
"If the country perishes, so be it, as long as their family is preserved."
"Such noble families deserve to perish."
A chill rose in Zhao Feng’s heart.
"Take them down."
Zhao Feng waved his hand.
The Personal Guard Army immediately advanced and seized the heads of the three families.
"Lord Wu’an."
"Our three families control more than half of Chu’s military and administrative power. If we surrender, it will be easier for Qin to dominate Chu."
"We sincerely wish to submit."
"Please, Lord Wu’an, reconsider."
Seeing Zhao Feng take action, the three became anxious.
"Qin does not need ministers who are like parasites."
"When I issued the order to surrender, what were you doing?"
"Now that I’ve taken the city, what’s the use of your surrender?"
"The fact that your three families have controlled Chu’s military and administration for so long suggests you are quite wealthy."
"Issue my order: exterminate the Qu, Jing, and Zhao families, confiscate their assets, and add them to the state treasury."
"Anyone from these families who resists will be killed. Those who surrender will be reduced to slavery," Zhao Feng declared coldly.
"Understood, my lord."
The trusted aides immediately responded.
They directly began detaining people.
"Zhao Feng."
"You will regret this."
"If our three families surrendered, the King of Qin would surely accept. If he learns of your actions today, he will hold you accountable."
"You deserve death."
"Zhao Feng..."
Realizing their surrender was not accepted, the heads of the three families began angrily cursing.
Zhao Feng stepped forward.
He simply drew his sword.
One swift strike each.
In the blink of an eye.
The three noisy family heads were swiftly beheaded by Zhao Feng.
"Killed Chu’s Minister Zhao Wen, gained 100 points in all attributes."
"Killed Chu’s Senior Minister Qu Lin, gained 100 points in all attributes."
"Killed Chu’s Senior Minister Jingwu, gained 100 points in all attributes," the panel indicated.
