The Territorial Masters opened their hearts and spoke their minds, unscrupulously slandering the Celestial King.
Of course, they felt that what they said was the truth and had no intention of slandering him.
Ji Tianxing listened from the side, but he didn't interrupt. His expression remained calm.
But in fact, he was already laughing in his heart.
Obviously, his plan to sow discord was very effective.
After the Territorial Masters vented their anger, they felt much better.
Especially the Territorial Master who was punished. Seeing that his friends understood and supported him, and that everyone had the same feeling, his mood suddenly brightened.
However, when one of the Territorial Lords saw that Ji Tianxing was silent, he thought that Ji Tianxing was unhappy. He quickly smiled apologetically and said, "Senior Qingfeng, we're just saying. We don't have any intention of rebelling. Just pretend that you didn't hear anything and don't take it to heart."
Hearing him say this, the Territorial Masters reacted and quickly looked at Ji Tianxing.
Seeing Ji Tianxing's expression, they suddenly felt guilty and regretful. They quickly defended themselves.
Although they were all friends and stood on the same side, they should have a common enemy and hate the Celestial King.
But the Territorial Masters were worried that the Territorial Master of Qingfeng was too blindly loyal and could not bear to hear such treacherous words.
If the Territorial Master of Qingfeng's brain went haywire and told the Celestial King, then they would be in trouble!
However, Ji Tianxing raised his hand and interrupted them. He smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. I have known you for hundreds of years. Do you still know my nature?
Don't forget, we are grasshoppers on the same rope. Our position is the same as everyone else's.
Isn't what you're saying also what this old man is thinking?
But we are in Heaven Capital and under the eyes of the Celestial King. In the future, when we discuss this matter, please be careful to keep it a secret.
If you are not absolutely reliable, don't show your rebellious thoughts towards the Celestial King and your close relationship with the Kenshin.
Otherwise, the Celestial King will definitely treat us as traitors who have sided with the Kenshin and kill us without hesitation! "
Hearing the 'Domain Lord of Clear Wind's' earnest words, the other six Domain Lords all nodded seriously, indicating that they would listen and pay attention.
Even though the phrase 'closeness to Kenshin' startled the Domain Leaders.
They were a little puzzled. We were only criticizing the Celestial King. When did we say we were going to side with the Kenshin?
However, everyone understood what the Realm Lord of Clear Wind was trying to say, so they didn't care about this detail.
Moreover, if the Celestial King knew that they were discussing this behind their backs, he would definitely treat them as traitors. It would be no different from defecting to the Kenshin.
Everyone conversed for an entire hour before leaving one after another.
Next, Ji Tianxing led the five Territorial Lords to visit the second Territorial Lord who had been punished.
This Territorial Lord and his eight hundred soldiers also lived in a palace and mansion on the peak of a mountain.
When Ji Tianxing and the other five Territorial Lords arrived at the peak of the mountain, they saw that there were also two hundred Imperial Guards standing guard outside the palace and mansion.
Just as they were about to approach, two Imperial Guard Captains came up to them and ordered them to stay back with an indifferent expression.
The general situation was the same as before.
The five Territorial Lords could only suppress their anger, put on a smiling face, and took out gifts to put in a good word with the two Imperial Guard Captains.
The two Imperial Guard Captains' vanity was satisfied. After accepting the gifts, they allowed the five Territorial Lords to enter.
The five Territorial Lords walked in front, and Ji Tianxing followed behind.
However, just as the five Territorial Lords took two steps, Ji Tianxing was stopped by the two Imperial Guard Captains.
The two Imperial Guard Captains looked at Ji Tianxing with a mocking expression and sneered, "The Commander has ordered that no one is allowed to visit or approach. Please leave!"
Hearing this, Ji Tianxing immediately frowned, and his eyes flashed with deep shame and anger.
The five Territorial Lords also stopped and looked at the two Imperial Guard Captains in shock. Their brows were full of anger.
Obviously, even a fool would understand what was going on.
The five Territorial Lords presented gifts and put in a good word with a smiling face, and the Imperial Guard Captains allowed them to enter.
However, Ji Tianxing did not present any gifts or put in a good word with a smiling face.
As usual, he maintained the posture of a Territorial Lord, with the temperament of a reserved and arrogant expert.
If it was in the past, no one would find anything wrong with it, because the Territorial Lord of Qingfeng had always been like this.
However, the situation was different now. The two Imperial Guard Captains' vanity was inflated. Seeing that the five Territorial Lords were trying to please them, they naturally could not stand the Territorial Lord of Qingfeng's arrogance.
They took this opportunity to make things difficult for the Territorial Lord of Qingfeng and embarrass him.
The other five Territorial Lords respected the Territorial Lord of Qingfeng, so naturally, they would not let Ji Tianxing make a fool of himself. They hurriedly argued with the two Imperial Guard Captains.
"Captains, the Territorial Lord of Qingfeng came with us. We are all here to visit a friend!"
"The Territorial Lord of Qingfeng is a highly respected senior. Even if God King Fengyi is here, he will have to show some respect. I advise you to make an exception for him."
"That's right! We have already given you gifts to express our sincerity. The Territorial Lord of Qingfeng came with us. Captains, you can't humiliate him like this! "
If it was in the past, the Territorial Lords would not even bother to pay attention to the two Imperial Guard Captains.
If such a thing had really happened, the Territorial Lords would have been angry and even reprimanded them.
However, now, the Territorial Lords could only defend themselves, show weakness, and plead for leniency.
The two Imperial Guard Captains became more complacent. They sneered and said, "The five of you are reasonable, so we can make an exception. However, the Territorial Lord of Qingfeng seems to be looking down on us. Don't blame us for enforcing the law impartially."
"Haha … Territorial Lords, please think twice before you speak! We are enforcing the law impartially. How can we accept bribes?
We only made an exception because of your sincere attitude. "
After accepting the gifts, the two Imperial Guard Captains would definitely not admit to it.
Since they had already fallen out with the Territorial Lord of Qingfeng, they could not show weakness. Naturally, they would make things difficult for the Territorial Lord and force him to bow down.
Unexpectedly, the Territorial Lord of Qingfeng, who had been upright, plainspoken, and dignified for many years, did not change his character. He flew into a rage on the spot.
He glared at the two Imperial Guard Captains and scolded them harshly, "Bastards! Don't you know your place and try to blackmail me?
You are just two Imperial Guard Captains. How dare you behave so arrogantly in front of me? Are you tired of living? "
As he scolded them, Ji Tianxing also released the aura of a High-Level God King and shrouded the two Imperial Guard Captains.
The two Imperial Guard Captains were only second-degree Low-Level God Kings. They were immediately pushed back by the invisible aura. They took a few steps back and their faces turned pale. They almost fell to the ground.
After they steadied themselves, they looked at Ji Tianxing in shock and fear. They revealed an expression of disbelief.
They had never expected that the white-bearded old man in front of them would be so unreasonable, stubborn, and rigid!
