After the three of them exchanged pleasantries, the secret room quietened down.
Duanmu Huang and Murong Lingfeng knew that the Honorable Lord had summoned them in the middle of the night because he had something important to discuss.
The two of them stared at the Honorable Lord's back and waited silently.
At this moment, the Honorable Lord spoke, "I have been cultivating in seclusion for several months and only came out a few days ago. I never thought that so many things would happen in these few months.
Duanmu Yulong was killed, Ji Tianxing became the Heavenly Stellar Region Lord and destroyed three herb gardens, causing the Duanmu Family to suffer a great loss …..
Hehe, a lowly commoner kid from the mountains of the south is actually able to stir up the winds and clouds of the Central Continent and create such a huge mess!
The Honorable Lord's tone was low and stern. His cold laughter contained a monstrous killing intent.
Hearing him mention what had happened in these few months, Duanmu Huang secretly gritted his teeth. His eyes were filled with hatred and killing intent.
"Honorable Lord, we have underestimated that little bastard Ji Tianxing too much!
If we had used all our strength to deal with him, he would have been crushed into pieces and turned into ashes!
It's a pity that he hid too deeply and rose too quickly, catching everyone off guard.
After these few months of fighting, I have finally figured out his background. "
Hearing this, the Honorable Lord furrowed his brows and said in a low voice, "Ji Tianxing's background? Could it be that he has another identity? Let's hear it. "
Duanmu Huang's face was solemn as he said, "Ji Tianxing rose so quickly. He first entered the Monarch Manor and then became the Heavenly Stellar Region Lord. He even dared to start a war with my Duanmu Family because he has a powerful backer!
He hid it very well in the past, but this time when he destroyed the Longevity Garden, he exposed his background.
His backer is the Demon Imperial Court! "
Hearing this, the Honorable Lord and Murong Lingfeng were stunned and revealed a look of disbelief.
Before the Honorable Lord spoke, Murong Lingfeng asked doubtfully, "Uncle Duanmu, how could Ji Tianxing have the Demon Imperial Court as his backer?"
Duanmu Huang narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "He used the Ice Dragon Hammer when he destroyed the Longevity Garden and killed the Firebird!
The Ice Dragon Hammer was the most precious treasure of the Demon Clan, and it just so happened to be able to restrain the Firebird of Heavenly Wind. Furthermore, Ji Tianxing has a close relationship with the Demon Prince Kunwu. "
There was no need for him to say anything more. The High Lord and Murong Lingfeng understood the connection.
The High Lord's eyes turned as cold as ice as he muttered, "So that's how it is! I didn't expect him to be related to the Demon Imperial Court. I really underestimated him! "
Murong Lingfeng hesitated for a moment before saying with a frown, "Lord, I've been secretly observing Ji Tianxing for the past few months.
I realized that he and the Son of Heaven, Long Yunxiao, didn't have a grudge against each other like the rumors said. Instead, they interacted frequently and seemed to have a close relationship!
Not only that, Ji Tianxing and Yun Yao also had a close relationship. The two of them were originally martial sister and brother. I'm afraid that Ji Tianxing also has some connections with the Yun Family. "
Hearing this, the High Lord and Duanmu Huang both frowned with a complicated look in their eyes.
The High Lord sneered and said in a deep voice, "Hehe, Ji Tianxing, this brat, is really inconceivable.
On one hand, he's on good terms with the Demon Prince, on the other hand, he's on good terms with Long Yunxiao. He even has some connections with the Yun Family. He's really benefiting from both sides!
No wonder a lowly commoner like him could rise so quickly. It turns out that he has three big backers to help him!
However, it's useless no matter how much he tries to rope in backers. Since I know his background, I won't underestimate him anymore.
His death is coming soon! "
The High Lord continued with a disdainful tone, "Long Yunxiao is also a useless piece of trash!
Everyone knows that he's infatuated with Yun Yao, but he chose An Suwan to be his Heavenly Consort and let Ji Tianxing snatch Yun Yao away!
As a man, he can't even conquer his own sweetheart and has close ties with his love rival. He's really shameless. He's a disgrace to the Imperial Court! "
Murong Lingfeng frowned and thought for a moment. Then, he said, "High Lord, I've observed for a few months and found that the relationship between Ji Tianxing, Yun Yao, and Long Yunxiao seems to be a little complicated.
I'm thinking, did we all misjudge Long Yunxiao?
Did he give up on Yun Yao because he deliberately gave Yun Yao to Ji Tianxing in exchange for Ji Tianxing's loyalty?
After all, no matter how important a peerless beauty is to Long Yunxiao, how can it be compared to the country and the throne? "
Duanmu Huang thought for a moment and hurriedly nodded in agreement. "That's right. Nephew Lingfeng's analysis is very reasonable.
Although Long Yunxiao pretends to be gentle and kind, as the Emperor, he's definitely someone who will do anything to achieve his goals.
Using a peerless beauty in exchange for the loyalty and support of a peerless genius. Isn't this what many emperors have done? "
The High Lord slowly turned around and glanced at Murong Lingfeng and Duanmu Huang. He sneered mockingly, "Haha, you're overestimating Long Yunxiao.
If he really had such ruthless determination and courage, he would've strengthened his forces long ago. With his wings fully developed, he would've been able to compete with me directly!
There's no need to investigate the entanglement between him, Ji Tianxing, and Yun Yao. They're going to die soon anyway!
This time, my cultivation has improved a lot. I've reached the half-step Soul Refinement Realm and am not far from breaking through!
Once I break through to the Soul Refinement Realm, there will be no place for Long Yunxiao in the Imperial Court! "
Duanmu Huang and Murong Lingfeng looked at each other and revealed a look of joy. They hurriedly cupped their hands and congratulated the High Lord.
"Congratulations to the High Lord for achieving great success!"
"Congratulations to the High Lord for improving your cultivation. You'll become a Transcendent soon!"
The High Lord nodded slightly and raised his hands, indicating that the two of them could dispense with the formalities.
He stared at Duanmu Huang and said in a serious tone, "Family Head Duanmu, Ji Tianxing destroyed the three herb gardens of the Duanmu Family. The Imperial Court already knows about this.
Although the Imperial Court hasn't said anything, Ji Tianxing's arrogance and unscrupulousness will definitely make the Imperial Court unhappy.
You don't have to worry about Ji Tianxing's status as the Imperial Court's Master and the Imperial Court's opinion. Find a suitable opportunity and kill Ji Tianxing with your own hands!
Anyway, the matter has already blown up. You have enough reason to take revenge! Even if the Imperial Court is unhappy, they won't punish you too harshly. "
When Duanmu Huang heard his words, it was as if he had eaten a pill of reassurance. He hurriedly nodded and said, "Good! Don't worry, High Lord. With me personally taking action, that bastard Ji Tianxing will definitely die! "
The High Lord then looked at Murong Lingfeng and said in a dignified tone, "Lingfeng, the Duanmu Family has suffered a great loss. Many people will definitely take this opportunity to take revenge.
The Murong Family and the Duanmu Family are allies. At this time, we can't just stand by and watch. We must do our best to help … "
After listening to the High Lord's orders, Murong Lingfeng respectfully cupped his hands and said, "We will follow the High Lord's orders. Don't worry, High Lord. The Murong Family knows what to do."
The High Lord nodded with satisfaction. His eyes revealed a cold light and he sneered, "Since Long Yunxiao and Ji Tianxing are secretly colluding, then I'll kill Ji Tianxing first and then get rid of Long Yunxiao!
