Sun Qian and Beauty Xiao were both subordinates of the Lifire Empyrean. If it was just Sun Qian alone, it could be said that he was bribed to betray the Lifire Empyrean. But since the two of them stood out together, their credibility was much higher.
The Lifire Empyrean didn't have any evidence to prove that Qin Wentian killed the Jialan Monarch. He only wanted to use this chance to get rid of Qin Wentian.
With regards to this point, many people believed it. They also knew a little about the matters between the Lifire Empyrean and Qin Wentian. This was completely possible, just like how the Lifire Empyrean was certain that Qin Wentian killed the Jialan Monarch.
"Beauty Xiao!" The Lifire Empyrean stared at Beauty Xiao. In an instant, Beauty Xiao felt a sense of suffocation. Her body trembled slightly as lifire flashed in her eyes.
"Palace Lord, are you planning to silence me?" Di Tian coldly spoke. Jialan Jiangshan stepped out, standing in front of the Lifire Empyrean. The two empyreans stood in confrontation.
Everyone was incomparably shocked. This place was Lifire City, the territory of the Lifire Empyrean. The Lifire Empyrean was actually in a passive position now.
"Palace Lord, as the lord of the Lifire Palace, you are in charge of a vast territory. I didn't expect that you would actually do such a thing, killing a governor for no reason. Most probably, similar things have happened many times in the past. It's just that in this Lifire Palace, there's basically no one who can restrain you." Di Tian coldly spoke. "There's an ancient saying that when a general is outside, he might not obey the orders of the monarch. Palace Lord, you are a marquis of a region, I'm sure you don't have the Realmlord's orders in your eyes."
"Back then, I heard that when Ye Qianyu and the other bandits slaughtered their way into the Jialan Emperor City, the Evil Emperor was among them. Palace Lord's subordinates clearly could have stopped them but they didn't, causing countless casualties in the Jialan Emperor Palace. Even the Jialan Monarch's wife and daughter died because of this. Is this true?" Jialan Jiangshan questioned.
"For this point, I can take care of it. Because back then, I was the one who slaughtered my way into the Jialan Emperor Palace. The Crow Immortal Emperor was there but he didn't obstruct me, allowing me to deal with the Jialan Emperor Palace." Qin Wentian calmly spoke. "After that, palace lord made use of me to deal with the Jialan Clan, placing me in the northern city regions as a governor. Now, you actually want to kill me to prevent future troubles. Palace lord, good methods."
Out of the four remaining governors of the Lifire, three had betrayed the Lifire Empyrean.
"During these years, the northern governor's manor has never done anything. It's still the Jialan Clan who has been maintaining order in the northern city regions. We still have to pay taxes, what's the use of the governor's manor? What's the point of the Lifire Palace existing? Why don't we just let the Jialan Clan manage Lifire City?"
"That's right, not only for the northern governor's manor. Back then, when Governor Xia Hou of the central city regions acted against the Emperor Pavilion and used despicable methods, the Lifire Palace also didn't investigate this matter thoroughly, right? They only found a few scapegoats. It was only after Grandmaster Di became the supervisory commander that he came back and investigated this matter. The Lifire Palace basically didn't do anything, what's the point of keeping them?"
Numerous voices rang out. Today, many major powers in Lifire City also started to make things difficult for the Lifire Empyrean. The feeling they gave was that the Lifire Empyrean had already been deserted by everyone. The major powers in Lifire City didn't approve of him and wanted him to step down.
In Lifire City, the Lifire Empyrean seemed to be extremely incompetent and incompetent.
"What a great show." The experts from the major powers from the Lifelong Realm all had smiles on their faces when they saw this scene. This Grandmaster Di was truly an extraordinary character. His weaponsmithing abilities were extraordinary, his combat prowess was terrifying, and even his schemes were outstanding, forcing the Lifire Empyrean to such a state. This matter caused such a commotion that even if things were to calm down now, the position of the Lifire Empyrean would most probably be shaken.
The periphery of this space was vast and mighty. It was unknown how many experts were surrounding it. Their hearts were fluctuating up and down, shaking violently.
This was forcing the Lifire Empyrean to abdicate. The sky was about to change.
This time around, Grandmaster Di joined forces with the Jialan Clan because he wanted to drag the Lifire Empyrean down from his position.
Regardless of the Emperor Pavilion or the Jialan Clan, both of them had immense power in Lifire City. They had long since made preparations and arranged everything. The voices of opposition rose up, it felt like the entire Lifire City was against the Lifire Empyrean. In comparison, no one dared to stand out and support the Lifire Empyrean.
After all, the Lifire Empyrean was different from the Jialan Clan and the Emperor Pavilion. He was an official power and his people controlled the entire Lifire City. But now, the situation was out of control.
As the saying goes, the victor is the king and the loser is the villain. The various powers would usually pay tribute to the Lifire Empyrean. Even if they had some relationship with the Lifire Empyrean, it was just a superficial relationship. Right now, the situation was unclear. No one knew who the Lifire Empyrean would be in the future. How would the various powers dare to choose a side so easily? If they chose the wrong side, they would be consigned to eternal damnation.
The Lifire Empyrean's expression grew uglier and uglier. His aura surged as the apocalyptic scene behind him continued. It felt like he wanted to incinerate the entire world in a moment of rage.
He, the Lifire Empyrean, actually fell into Di Tian's trap today. This was clearly set up to deal with him. All the spearheads were pointed at him, revealing all the mistakes he had committed, placing them before the eyes of everyone. "Zhuge Xiong, as the grand governor of the Lifire Palace, you actually incited the Lifire Empyrean to commit a crime, suggesting that Governor Qin should be killed. Do you know your crimes?" Di Tian stared at Zhuge Xiong in the air as he coldly spoke.
"Governor Lin Ba, as well as the protectors and guards of the Lifire Palace, I will definitely report this matter to the Realmlord. Are you guys still going to be so thick-headed and continue to make mistakes?"
"Shut up."
The Lifire Empyrean coldly berated. "Today, I came here to apprehend the criminal Qin Wentian. Supervisory Commander Di Tian obstructed me in every possible way, colluding with the Jialan Clan and plotting to topple my position as the Lifire Empyrean. Such a crime of treason is actually so righteous, inciting the Jialan Clan and Emperor Pavilion to rebel together. This is simply an extremely heinous crime. Di Tian, I'll only ask you one question. Today, are you sure you want to rebel against the Lifire Palace and help the Jialan Clan seize control?"
The Lifire Empyrean clearly knew that everything Di Tian said was correct. However, at this moment, he was already riding a tiger and it was hard for him to dismount.
Right now, he could only say a few words. The winner is the king, the loser is the vilified.
As the saying goes, the victor is the king. Everything written in the dossier would be written by the victor. No matter what conflicts there were, strength would be the final solution. Since both parties were so stubborn and both wanted to seize the mistakes of the other, the only thing that could decide everything would be strength.
The Jialan Clan allied with the Emperor Pavilion and wanted to clash with the Lifire Empyrean. Since this was the case, he would accept the challenge.
"Seems like palace lord is going to make mistakes again and again. How heartbreaking. As the supervisory commander, Di Tian has received the Realmlord's kindness. I advise palace lord not to do things like this again. If you stop now, it's still not too late. Maybe after the Realmlord investigates clearly, he would be lenient." Di Tian sighed.
"Di Tian, you betrayed the Lifire Palace and allied with the Jialan Clan. Your crimes cannot be pardoned. Even now, you still have no heart to repent. In that case, as the Lifire Empyrean, I, as the Lifire Empyrean, can only suppress you." The Lifire Empyrean waved his hand. In an instant, a powerful formation radiated outwards. The hidden guards were like venomous snakes, ready to attack at any moment.
The crowd was in a commotion. Many people understood that a battle was about to begin.
From the start, this conflict was already destined to be resolved through a battle. Because, no one could give way. If the Lifire Empyrean gave way, where would his prestige and status as the Lifire Empyrean be? Wouldn't that mean that he had admitted his mistakes and crimes? If that was the case, would he still be able to sit on his position as the Lifire Empyrean?
It was also impossible for Di Tian and the others to retreat. They had already initiated this conflict and were directly facing the Lifire Empyrean. The Jialan Clan had also acted and they had grasped the timing so well. How could they retreat now?
The people from the Jialan Clan and Emperor Pavilion also acted. Waves of terrifying might gushed forth, causing the surrounding crowd to retreat again and again. The majestic northern governor's manor would soon become a battlefield, a battlefield that could change the heavens.
The vice governors and attendants of the northern city regions felt their hearts trembling. When the Lifire Empyrean appeared, although they respected Qin Wentian, they still chose the Lifire Empyrean without any hesitation. However, the current situation had far exceeded their expectations. They were now embroiled in a shocking storm.
"People of the Lifire Palace, stop being so stubborn and helping the evildoer." Di Tian berated the people of the Lifire Palace. The hearts of everyone trembled. After all, two governors had already betrayed the Lifire Empyrean and the others were also wavering. Could they win this battle?
However, the prestige of the Lifire Empyrean was still there. He stood there like a divinity. Who would dare to retreat?
"Di Tian colluded with the Jialan Clan to betray the Lifire Palace. Bring all of them away. If anyone resists, kill them without mercy." The Lifire Empyrean officially gave the order.
A violent aura gushed forth. In the sky, astral light flashed, raining down from the skies. The entire space was filled with emperor light as well as a terrifying storm of law energy. Both sides were unleashing their tyrannical strength.
"Hahaha, how impressive. It has been a long time since I had a good battle. Let's fight." Jialan Jiangshan spoke to the Lifire Empyrean. They didn't act against the others or both sides would surely suffer heavy casualties.
"Right." The Lifire Empyrean nodded. Lifire flashed with apocalyptic light, transforming into a blood-red fire dragon that directly shot towards Jialan Jiangshan.
With an intention of his will, numerous snow-white demonic snakes appeared in the air, frenziedly rushing towards the Lifire Empyrean. In that area, the power of the Lifire Empyrean could destroy everything. No one else could enter this battlefield.
"Governor Zhuge, you instigated the Lifire Empyrean to kill me, barging into my governor's manor and forcing me out. Now, how should we settle this debt?" Qin Wentian's white robes fluttered in the wind. He stared at Zhuge Xiong as he coldly spoke.
Upon seeing those eyes, Zhuge Xiong's expression grew unsightly. The Lifire Empyrean was fighting against Jialan Jiangshan. In that case, who would be the one to deal with Qin Wentian and Di Tian, these two demon-level characters?
