The boundless images supported by the vassals were sometimes solid and real, sometimes illusory and indistinct. The rapid changes proved just how unstable their emotions were at this moment, and it stirred up great waves that shocked the heavens.
This was hard for them to accept.
They only knew about the cooperation between the Purple Marquis and the Myriad Demon Palace three days ago when the Purple Marquis decided to kill Lin Hanqing after the banquet.
In the Purple Marquis's plan, the Myriad Demon Palace would support the southern vassals to overthrow the Eastern Dynasty and establish a new court. After the success, the Myriad Demon Palace would become the protector of the new court, but they would not interfere with the normal operations of the new court.
In their impression, the Myriad Demon Palace was high and mighty. It was only because of their relationship with the Purple Marquis that they helped, making the vassals feel like they got a great bargain.
But now, after hearing this news, everyone's heart fell into the abyss. They felt a chill all over their body.
The Marquis of Shanshui felt like …
When he was a child, he had no strength to even truss a chicken. On a hot afternoon, he was bored to death as he strolled in the back garden. He found a green object and thought it was an emerald necklace dropped by a concubine. He excitedly wanted to pick it up and play with it. When he got closer, he found that it was a green, slippery, and cold poisonous snake with a triangular head.
The poisonous snake stuck out its tongue and its eyes were cold. The slippery and disgusting feeling seemed to reach his heart.
"We are playing with fire!"
"If Jiang Siqing did not lie to us, then there must be a conspiracy. We have been played by Dongfang Jie or the Purple Marquis!"
Not only did the Marquis of Shanshui think this, the other vassals were also alarmed.
Back then, Dongfang Jie, who was overthrown and chased to death by them, became their backing to overthrow Dongfang Lu, who did not support his reform!
How could Dongfang Jie be so kind as to help them?
Moreover, Dongfang Jie's hatred for the feudal system was deep in his bones. Therefore, when he just ascended to the throne and took control of the imperial power, he did not have enough time to prepare and immediately took action against the corrupt feudal vassals!
When the war broke out, his family and loyal subordinates all died in the hands of the vassals. He was even chased off the throne and chased like a stray dog to the Evil Infested Ridge. He saw with his own eyes that in order to avoid being humiliated by the vassals, his concubines and princesses committed suicide. In his endless despair and hatred, he fell into the grand canyon.
After going through this life and death calamity and suffering humiliation, Dongfang Jie's hatred towards the Marquis should be even greater.
In this world, was there anything more serious than killing one's son or humiliating one's wife?
Moreover, he was not a weakling. He was a man of great talent and bold vision. As the ruler of a country, his status was respected.
This difference was even more obvious on him.
This kind of emotion would become even more intense.
If one thought about it carefully, they would understand it very clearly.
Dongfang Jie loathed Eastern Lu, who had not supported him in dethroning the vassals and had still reconciled with them after he was exiled and killed. He loathed these vassals even more.
Therefore, he used Purple Marquis as a troublemaker to stir up the conflict between the Marquis and the royal family, starting a war. He watched coldly from the sidelines and hid behind the scenes with a mocking smile. He enjoyed the dogfight between the enemies. When the royal family and the vassals were both injured, he would appear and easily reap the harvest.
Purple Marquis's expression greatly changed. After being stunned for a few seconds, he angrily pointed at Jiang Tian and said, "Jiang Siqing, you are slandering me. Demon King Han Guang is a great demon with the bloodline of the Heaven Devouring Python. How could he be related to Dongfang Jie?"
"Haha, so you were also tricked!"
Jiang Tian saw this and laughed instead.
Before, he originally thought that Purple Marquis and Dongfang Jie were working together selflessly to fight for their ideals. Like Dongfang Jie, they hated the feudal system to the core. Even after Dongfang Jie established a new dynasty, they would hand over their land and authority, leaving behind only a title or a minister. They would no longer be hereditary.
But now, it seemed that Purple Marquis was also deceived and played by Dongfang Jie.
But on second thought, it was no wonder.
Purple Marquis had always been an extremely selfish person. Hundreds of years ago, Purple Marquis hated the county system and was the vanguard to overthrow the late emperor, Dongfang Jie. Even now, he was still thinking about taking over his land and becoming the emperor. How could he change his attitude so quickly and completely and become a supporter of the county system?
"What do you mean by tricked! You are just spouting nonsense! "
Purple Marquis was shocked, but he forced himself to calm down. Thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning. Han Guang was Dongfang Jie, and he had definitely been tricked. No wonder every time he met Han Guang, he felt a sense of familiarity from Han Guang's actions. His appearance, bloodline, cultivation methods, and even the Gods and Precepts that he had condensed could all be changed. However, there would always be some traces left behind in his speech and actions. But now, he had no other choice. The most important thing now was to make the Marquis believe in him, kill Jiang Siqing and the Eldest Princess, and then find other forces, such as the giants of the hidden sects, to help him overthrow the imperial court and even the Pantheon of Demons.
He swept his gaze over the numerous vassals and army formations, a look of boundless determination appearing on his face as he waved his hand and shouted,
He waved his hand and said, "Don't listen to this man's lies and shake the morale of the army. Now that we've joined forces, we're only a step away from success and recognition. After we kill this bastard and demoness Ink Feather, we'll directly attack the enemy's den and breach the Imperial Capital. We'll kill the incapable ruler and fulfill our lofty aspirations to save all living beings in the world and establish peace for all ages! "
"Alas! Since I said so, of course I have evidence! "
Jiang Tian smiled and released Niu Ben's God unhurriedly. He said with a smile, "Niu Ben's God is one of the four Guardians of the Pantheon of Demons. Is that enough?"
"Hiss! This, this, this is Niu Ben's God! "
"What? God Niu Ben was killed by him, and only his God is left! "
"Isn't he too strong?!"
The whole place was filled with gasps. At this moment, the faces of the vassals changed wildly. They were shocked and couldn't believe it.
A celestial device that could break through space, arrive in an instant, and realize long-distance surveillance consumed a lot of high-grade Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. Moreover, it required extremely skilled craftsmen to carve mysterious formation patterns. It wasn't something that anyone could control.
In the Saint Origin World, generally speaking, only the top Holy Clans or Holy Lands or Empires had it. The vassal families didn't have this kind of surveillance celestial device. Even the Fragrant Medicine House didn't have it. Therefore, Landlord Wang could only get the news from the disciple who was a guest in the Eastern Canyon Duke Mansion.
Eastern Lu and Crown Prince Dongfang Ding already knew about the battle on Hundred Flowers Peak. However, to avoid alerting the enemy, they naturally sealed the outside world.
In short, the vassals had no idea about the details of the battle.
Before this, they thought that Jiang Tian had escaped by luck. They didn't expect that he had killed God Niu Ben.
This made them feel incredulous. They looked at Jiang Tian in shock and fear, as if they were dreaming.
"Mr. Jiang's strength is actually so terrifying? You should know that he used Divine Powers similar to 'Qi into Trinity'. It was only a doppelganger that went to Hundred Flowers Peak! "
Not only them, but even Princess Mo Yu's delicate body trembled slightly. Her face was full of shock. Her beautiful eyes were wide open as she looked at Jiang Tian's tall and dignified back with extraordinary splendor.
It was as if she had met Jiang Tian for the first time.
Although she knew that Jiang Tian's strength was extraordinary, she didn't expect Jiang Tian's strength to be so strong!
He killed God Niu Ben with only a doppelganger!
