After hearing the Imperial Tutor's explanation, Ji Tianxing and Murong Zheng came to a sudden realization.
No wonder the Imperial Tutor had appeared at this time and saved Murong Zheng at this critical juncture.
As it turned out, the Imperial Tutor had already predicted that this day would come more than a year ago.
Over the past year, the Imperial Tutor had been paying attention to Murong Zheng's movements.
Ji Tianxing frowned and said in a cold voice, "Imperial Tutor, since you've been monitoring Murong Zheng, you should know that he was the one who deliberately tried to kill me tonight.
I didn't intend to take revenge on the Murong family, you know this very well.
However, Murong Zheng was looking for death, so it was only right and proper for me to kill him. Why did you save him? "
Actually, there were some things that he understood. He also knew that tonight's matter was a foregone conclusion. He definitely wouldn't be able to kill Murong Zheng.
However, he couldn't take this lying down. He had to find the Imperial Tutor and ask for an explanation!
The Imperial Tutor sighed and revealed a knowing smile. He nodded and said, "That's right. This old man is very clear about the cause of this matter.
Tonight, it was Murong Zheng who deliberately tried to kill you to take revenge. Even if you killed him, he deserved it.
However, this old man just said that nothing can happen to you and the Murong family. This is the Emperor's wish.
Now that the demon race is wreaking havoc in the world, our race will once again face a reign of terror. The Emperor must protect the peace of the human race and use all his strength to resist the demon race. He doesn't want to see the internal power of our race break apart.
Tianxing, you've always been a man of great righteousness. You're also the prodigy that the Emperor relies on the most.
This old man believes that you also don't want to see the demon race wantonly slaughter our people and our race's powerhouses wither away. No one can protect the common people, right? "
Hearing this, Ji Tianxing fell silent.
"The Imperial Tutor and the Emperor both know my nature very well. They used the demon race's rule as an excuse and used the common people as an excuse to make me spare Murong Zheng …"
At this moment, the Imperial Tutor continued, "Tianxing, this old man announces on behalf of the Emperor that this matter ends here!
Back then, you killed Murong Lingfeng. Now, you are sparing Murong Zheng's life.
A life for a life, the debt between the two of you is cleared. The grudge between you and the Murong family will also end here.
From now on, both sides are not allowed to seek revenge. Otherwise, the Imperial Court will intervene and severely punish the side that seeks revenge! "
When Ji Tianxing heard this, he felt a little conflicted. He sneered, "Imperial Tutor, do you think that's possible? The enmity between me and the Murong family is already deep. Do you think you can resolve it with just a few words from you? "
The Imperial Tutor looked at him expressionlessly and said in a solemn tone, "This is not what I said, but what the Emperor said.
No matter how deep the blood feud is between you and the Murong family, you must obey the Imperial Court's orders!
Even if it is impossible, as long as the Emperor gives the order, it will become possible, and we must obey the order! "
The Imperial Tutor's tone was low and dignified, containing an unquestionable domineering aura.
Ji Tianxing fell silent again, unable to refute.
After all, the human race in the world was under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Court. This was the rule and principle since ancient times.
Unless he betrayed the human race, or if his strength far surpassed the Imperial Court, he had the right to go against the Imperial Court's orders and not be bound by the Imperial Court.
Just like Kenshin a thousand years ago, not only was he not bound by the Imperial Court, but the Imperial Court even asked him for help!
When he thought of this, Ji Tianxing's heart became more and more eager to reach Kenshin's level as soon as possible and restore Kenshin's supreme glory!
He was not a descendant of the Imperial Court, nor was he the Emperor who controlled the human race. He could not abandon his personal grudges and protect the peace of the world.
He yearned to become a peerless expert like Kenshin, unrestrained, coming and going like the wind, doing things according to his nature and preferences.
That was the peerless expert who walked the world with his sword, the carefree god of the sword!
At this time, the Imperial Tutor turned to look at Murong Zheng, who was not far away, and asked in a deep voice, "Murong Zheng! You heard this old man's words clearly, do you have any objections? "
Murong Zheng had just escaped a disaster and was saved by the Imperial Tutor, so of course he had no objections.
He quickly sent a spiritual message and said in a serious tone, "Your Majesty Imperial Tutor, please tell His Majesty the Emperor that this subject will definitely obey His Majesty's orders and will not go against them!
In addition, my Murong family will always be loyal to the Imperial Court and serve the human race! "
The Imperial Tutor's lips curved into a playful smile, and said in a dignified tone, "Very good! Murong Zheng, you are indeed a person who understands the big picture. I hope you will always remember what you said tonight.
Since your Murong family is loyal to the Imperial Court and serves the human race, this old man will now announce the Emperor's second order.
The Emperor's order is that within half a year, Murong Zheng will personally lead a hundred thousand elite soldiers of the Murong family to the battlefield in the north to resist the invasion of the demon army.
As long as the chaos of the demon race is not quelled, Murong Zheng and the soldiers of the Murong family will not be able to return to the Central Province! "
After announcing the Emperor's order, the Imperial Tutor calmly added, "Murong Zheng, your Murong family has a foothold in the Central Province, enjoyed a thousand years of peace, and prospered.
Now, the demon race is bringing disaster to the human race. It is time for the Murong family to step forward and pledge your loyalty to the Imperial Court, and shelter the human race from the wind and rain! "
When Murong Zheng heard this, his soul was greatly shaken, and his mood was incomparably complicated.
His words of righteousness were deliberately said for the Imperial Tutor to hear.
Those words sounded dignified, expressing the Murong family's loyalty, but he was actually unwilling to fulfill it.
But now, the Emperor had ordered him to lead a hundred thousand elite soldiers of the Murong family to the battlefield to resist the demon army.
He had just boasted of his loyalty, so he couldn't immediately go back on his words and disobey the Emperor's order, right?
Wouldn't that be slapping his own face?
Moreover, did the Murong family have the right to disobey the Emperor's order?
Absolutely not!
"Damn it! The Imperial Tutor and the Emperor, these two old fellows, have long seen through my nature and guessed how I would answer, so they set a trap for me in advance! "
Murong Zheng's heart was filled with hatred, and he was so regretful that he wanted to vomit blood … Unfortunately, he didn't have a physical body, so he couldn't vomit blood even if he wanted to.
After hesitating for a moment, he said with some difficulty, "Your Highness the Imperial Tutor, this subject will naturally obey the Emperor's order, and will not dare to neglect it.
But my Murong family's power is meager, and we only have a few thousand people. Where would we get a hundred thousand elite soldiers? "
Hearing this, the Imperial Tutor immediately revealed a cold smile, and said in an indifferent tone, "Murong Zheng, this old man and the Emperor are well aware of the Murong family's power!
Don't play around with those little ideas, it's just making people laugh.
You only have half a year to heal your injuries, gather all the forces under your command, and gather a hundred thousand elite soldiers.
Don't waste your breath with this old man here, quickly go back and heal your injuries, and prepare for the battle! "
Murong Zheng was suddenly at a loss for words, he was full of shame from the Imperial Tutor's rebuke, and was speechless.
Of course, the Murong family could gather a hundred thousand elite soldiers.
But that was gathering all the forces under the Murong family's command, and gathering eighty percent of their elite warriors!
Half a year later, he would bring a hundred thousand elite soldiers to the battlefield in the northern border, which was equivalent to bringing eighty percent of the Murong family's forces with him!
Once a hundred thousand elite soldiers died on the battlefield, the Murong family would only exist in name!
