For the past thirty thousand years, the Dragon Realm had been peaceful and peaceful. There had been no turmoil or chaos.
Tens of thousands of demon clans lived in peace. They were of equal status and seemed to be harmonious.
However, this was just a facade.
The difference between bloodlines was too deeply ingrained in people's hearts, and it had long been ingrained in them.
For example, the dragon, phoenix, kylin, and the four sacred beasts had extremely noble bloodlines and were of extraordinary status.
As long as they did not do anything outrageous, no one dared to punish them.
Even if they made mistakes, only the clans of equal status could restrain and judge them.
As for the Seven Ancestors of the Demon Clan, they were also recognized as aristocrats in the Dragon Realm.
Although they did not have extraordinary status like the dragons and phoenixes, they had many privileges.
Therefore, the death of the little princess of Tian Myriad was not a big deal to Lu Ming.
It was only because he was a benevolent Territorial Lord that he helped the Emperor of Tian Myriad to mediate.
If it were other Territorial Lords, they would not be bothered. They would never offend a Divine King of the Dragon Clan for the sake of the princess of the Tian Myriad.
…
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
During these two days, Ji Tianxing stayed in the secret chamber and cultivated in the distorted space-time of the divine pagoda.
He had reached the late-stage of the fourth Divine King Realm and was not far from the fifth.
During this period, Pengfei came to look for him twice but did not manage to meet him.
Pengfei still did not give up. He wanted to persuade him to join forces and explore the Divine Dragon Mystic Realm in the Tianren Domain.
In the early morning of the third day, the sky was still dark.
A flying boat came from the sky and arrived at the main gate of the Territorial Lord Manor at lightning speed.
After the flying boat was put away, a burly man from the Tian Myriad Clan with a divine crown on his head hurried into the Territorial Lord Manor with two high-level Divine Lords.
There was no doubt that it was the Emperor of Tian Myriad and the two commanders of the imperial guards. They were both high-level Divine Lords of the eighth stage.
Under the guidance of the guards, the three of them came to the Second Courtyard of the Territorial Lord Manor and entered Lu Ming's study.
Lu Ming sat alone in the study, waiting expressionlessly.
After the Emperor of Tian Myriad entered the study and bowed to Lu Ming, he complained about Long Tian's crime with a look of grief and indignation.
"Sir Domain Lord, you must uphold justice for this subordinate!
That Long Tian's origin is unknown. He ruined my daughter's martial arts competition and even heavily injured the Marshal's son.
My daughter was merciful and pleaded with the marshal on his behalf, calming down the marshal's anger.
Who would have thought that not only did Long Tian not thank him, he even killed his daughter.
So what if he was a noble dragon? How could he do such a crazy thing? "
The Emperor of Tian Myriad Sovereign was filled with grief and indignation as he complained tearfully.
Lu Ming frowned when he heard that. He said in a stern tone, "I don't want to hear you wailing here. This is of no help to the investigation of the truth!
If you want me to uphold justice, then tell me the cause of the matter from beginning to end! "
In the jade slip, Emperor Tian Myriad's explanation was simple.
Lu Ming only knew that the little princess of Tian Xiang had been killed by Long Tian, but he did not know the specific reason.
Therefore, when he saw Ji Tianxing, he could only bear with it for the time being and did not ask anything.
After being reprimanded, Emperor Tian Myriad finally calmed down and recounted the whole story in detail.
After hearing that, Lu Ming's lips curled into a cold smile. He shouted coldly, "Xiang Jiuge, your daughter is really unruly and wilful!
I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. Long Tian is not only the Divine King of the dragon race, but he was also once a peerless genius with a strong background!
Your daughter, a mere princess of the Tian Myriad Sovereign race, actually wanted to marry him? She even put him under house arrest in the palace?
To put it bluntly, your daughter only has herself to blame! "
"Ah?" Emperor Tian Myriad Sovereign was stunned on the spot. He was filled with indignation as he muttered to himself, "But even if Long Tian looked down on my daughter, he shouldn't have killed her so cruelly!
When the maidservant found my daughter, she had died in a very miserable and pitiful state. Long Tian had already fled … "
Lu Ming frowned and thought for a while. He said in a low voice, "These are your one-sided words. It's not to be believed.
I don't believe that Long Tian would kill Xiang Yu so cruelly because of her pestering.
Long Tian happens to be in my residence. I'll summon him over later so that you can confront him face to face.
You must find out the truth today!
If Long Tian is really the one who killed Xiang Yu, I can pressure him and force him to apologize.
But as for other requests, don't be delusional! "
"Uh …" Emperor Tian Myriad's body stiffened. His expression was ugly, and there was a flash of humiliation and indignation in his eyes.
He could not accept that his most beloved daughter had been killed in exchange for an apology from the murderer.
This was unfair!
However, he had no right to complain.
Lu Ming was willing to help him find out the truth and force Long Tian to admit his guilt and apologize. This was already a favor!
After a moment of silence, Emperor Tian Myriad could only nod and agree. He bowed and said, "Thank you, Territorial Lord!"
Lu Ming did not say anything else. He gestured for Divine King Yueying to invite Ji Tianxing over.
At the same time, he led Emperor Tian Myriad to the conference hall.
…
Ji Tianxing was still cultivating in the divine pagoda, focusing on comprehending the Heaven Punishing Divine Art.
However, someone kept knocking on the door of the secret chamber, and the rhythm was more urgent.
Knowing that something had happened, Ji Tianxing could only end his cultivation and walk out of the secret chamber.
Yueying Divine King stood at the door of the secret chamber and bowed. "Brother Long, the Territorial Lord invites you to the conference hall. He has something to discuss."
"Hmm?" Ji Tianxing frowned in confusion, wondering what was so serious.
However, since Yueying Divine King did not reveal, he did not ask either.
He followed Yueying Divine King out of the palace and walked towards the conference hall.
Coincidentally, Peng Fei was strolling outside. When he saw the two of them, he hurriedly followed.
"Senior Long Tian, where are you guys going?"
Ji Tianxing smiled and replied casually, "Your Uncle-Master has something urgent to discuss with me. We're going to the conference hall to discuss it."
Peng Fei was full of doubts and asked Yueying Divine King, "Why are we going to the conference hall for no reason? What's so serious?
Senior Yueying, can you tell us? "
Yueying Divine King glanced at him and said expressionlessly, "Young Master Peng Fei, you'd better not ask too much."
Seeing his serious expression, Peng Fei and Ji Tianxing both realized that something was amiss.
True enough.
As soon as the three of them entered the conference hall, they sensed a solemn and oppressive atmosphere.
More than ten Divine Lord realm guards guarded the entrance and passageway of the conference hall.
In the middle of the hall, Emperor Tian Myriad stood with his hands by his side, looking sorrowful and angry.
The two Imperial Guard Commanders stood behind him, looking as if they had a common enemy.
Lu Ming sat at the head of the table, expressionless and solemn.
He was a completely different person from his previous warm, hospitable, and amiable self.
Yueying Divine King walked into the hall and cupped his fists. "Lord Domain Lord, I've brought Long Tian here!"
Seeing this, Ji Tianxing frowned, and the corner of his mouth curled up into a cold smile.
"From your tone, are you going to judge me? Or are you going to give some orders?
Lu Ming, have you been acting with me all this while? "
Before Lu Ming could say anything, the Emperor of Tian Myriad Phenomenon turned around and glared at him with bloodshot eyes, "Long Tian! You crazy bastard! "
"???" Ji Tianxing was stunned. His face was full of question marks.
