As it turned out, the Righteous Alliance Lord had arrived long ago, but he had been hiding in the crowd.
Naturally, he had his own reasons for allowing Madam Jia to cause trouble.
He was the head of the Jia Clan and the current Righteous Alliance Lord. He had to rely on the support of the Eternal Joy Immortal Island.
He naturally wouldn't stop Madam Jia from doing anything.
Moreover, Jia Lin and Jia Yun were members of the Righteous Alliance and his family. Since they were killed by Ling Xiao, he naturally hoped that Ling Xiao would be killed as well.
But now, he had no choice but to appear.
He understood Ji Ning's temper.
If he angered Ji Ning, he would really dare to kill Madam Jia.
Smiling, he led Madam Jia away.
Along the way, Madam Jia asked in grief and indignation, "Alliance Lord, don't you want revenge?"
"Revenge is necessary. That Ling Xiao will definitely die, but he can't be killed today."
Madam Jia shook her head.
"Why? Alliance Lord, you should be stronger than that Ji Ning, right? "
"It's not because of Ji Ning."
"Then it's because of those tens of millions of ants?"
"That's not it either."
"Then why?" Madam Jia didn't understand.
"Haven't you noticed? There's a woman standing next to Ling Xiao. That woman is the Moon Maiden of the Tianlong Continent. She's probably not much weaker than this old man. If we fight, both sides will be heavily injured. In the end, that old fox Fengming Wuliang will be the one to benefit."
Madam Jia sneered. "Don't worry. Ling Xiao must die. This old man can guarantee you."
"Alright, I'll leave everything to the Alliance Lord."
Madam Jia sucked in a cold breath. If that Moon Maiden was really as powerful as Madam Jia said, then she had just walked through the gates of hell.
…
Madam Jia left.
Sikong Zun sank into despair once more.
It seemed like he could only fight with his life on the line. Otherwise, no one would be able to save him today.
Fengming Wuliang glanced at Sikong Zun and sighed helplessly. Then, he walked up to the high platform and said loudly, "My people, I'm heartbroken right now.
Our good general Ji Ning was almost unjustly killed.
Lv Chenglong was killed by a traitor while protecting Ji Ning. "
Speaking up to here, he glanced at Ji Zhangran, who was already on the verge of death and whose flesh had almost been completely torn apart by him, and his heart actually felt a little apprehensive.
The scorpion man's venom was too terrifying.
Ji Zhangran being alive right now was worse than being dead.
Everyone looked at him, wanting to hear what he had to say.
"Since the misunderstanding has been resolved, I must apologize to General Ji Ning and the deceased General Lv Chenglong. I was deceived by a scoundrel and made a wrong judgment. I am guilty."
Speaking up to here, he actually burst into tears. That appearance was simply as if his father had died.
Many soldiers and commoners were moved by him, crying and crying.
Ling Xiao's eyes revealed a bit of disgust.
This Fengming Wuliang was probably the culprit behind Ji Ning's wrongful accusation.
Unfortunately, he had no evidence.
Without evidence, Ling Xiao couldn't touch him, because Ling Xiao didn't want to kill the wrong person.
But Sikong Zun had to die today. No matter what decision Fengming Wuliang made in the end, he had already made up his mind.
"Great General has worked hard and performed a great service. Today, I would like to announce in public that Ji Ning has been conferred the title of Imperial Tutor, King Equal to the Prince. Last time, he had a hundred hectares of fertile land, a house, gold, and spirit stones. From now on, he can enjoy life in the Imperial City."
Evil!
This Fengming Wuliang was a clear promotion to Ji Ning. Although the title of Imperial Tutor and King Equal to the Prince sounded much more impressive than the Great General.
And in fact, his status was indeed high.
But this was an empty position.
Under normal circumstances, he didn't have the power to command the army.
Ling Xiao inwardly sneered. So be it. Ji Ning was too loyal and righteous. With military power in his hands, he would become the target of others.
Without military power, he would naturally be less of a threat to many people, and he wouldn't become a tiger in the way of others.
Before Fengming Wuliang could finish speaking.
"Lv Chenglong's loyalty and bravery were unparalleled. This time, his tragic death was truly unjust. He will be conferred the title of Count Zhongyi, and his descendants will inherit this title."
For Lv Chenglong, this conferment didn't have much meaning. After all, Lv Chenglong was already dead. Moreover, he didn't marry or have children, let alone inherit the title.
This person had truly dedicated his youth to this country, but his death was too unjust.
Rumor had it that as long as one crossed the Gate of Heaven's Chosen, one could obtain a "Godhood".
This Godhood could confer the title of God to anyone who died.
Although this kind of Godhood was generally relatively low and far less powerful than cultivating to become a God, it was still an opportunity.
The Gods of the Mystic World were said to live in a place that mortals couldn't see. They controlled the natural changes of the Mystic World as well as birth, old age, sickness, and death.
But this was only a legend after all.
It was said that there were only a few people who had obtained Godhood in the past hundred thousand years, and none of them could be confirmed.
Because these people basically used the Godhood for themselves after obtaining it and wouldn't give it to others.
But even so, this was still an opportunity.
In a situation where the dead couldn't be resurrected, Ling Xiao could only think of this method.
I hope it's not a dream.
"General Ji Ning, do you think this is a good way to deal with it?"
After Fengming Wuliang announced his decision, he looked at Ji Ning and asked.
"The Emperor's method of ascending and descending is really chilling. Could it be that I, Ji Ning, was willing to resign myself to death and follow Jia Lin to the Imperial City, and you still doubt me?"
Ji Ning didn't give Fengming Wuliang any face. He criticized Fengming Wuliang's imperial edict as worthless, letting everyone see the Emperor's ruthlessness and shamelessness.
Fengming Wuliang was both angry and regretful in his heart.
He never thought that Ji Ning would be like this.
According to Ji Ning's temper in the past, he shouldn't have done such a thing. He must have been influenced by Ling Xiao.
However, Fengming Wuliang didn't know that people would always change.
Ji Ning had suffered a great change. His best brother was killed in front of him, and he was so loyal to the Emperor and his country, but he was going to be demoted and directly turned into a mere figurehead.
He had long been bitterly disappointed.
Since he was already bitterly disappointed, there was no need to give this Emperor any more face. What should be said was what should be said.
"General, I'm afraid you've misunderstood. Alas, in that case, what do you want, General?"
Fengming Wuliang suppressed his anger and asked.
"It doesn't matter if I reward you or not. Ah Long doesn't need your reward. I just hope that the Emperor can kill the traitor and give us justice. That's enough!"
Ji Ning said faintly.
He didn't want to continue serving this Emperor. It was really boring. If it weren't for the hundreds of thousands of people in the Northern Desert who were willing to follow him, he even wanted to simply retire and cultivate his own martial arts. That way, he would live a more carefree life.
But now, he couldn't resign. He wanted to be the general of the Northern Desert people, his own general.
