Xia Yangming's and Shi Zhongyu's eyes flickered with a faintly shocked look. However, in the blink of an eye, the two cunning people instantly looked amazed and furious.
"Your Majesty, what do you mean?" Xia Yangming goggled at Zhang Tie as if he had been greatly insulted and wronged, saying, "This Xia Yangming is loyal to Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. Your Majesty, do you suspect that I'm a member of Dark Emperor Immortal Palace?"
"Before Your Majesty became Dragon Emperor, due to the conflict between my apprentice and Your Majesty, I've known that Your Majesty has a prejudice against me. If Your Majesty doesn't like me, just tell me about it. I will leave Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace for sure. Your Majesty, why do you do that …" Shi Zhongyu sighed with a distressed look, saying, "Your Majesty, if you're joking, it's too serious. Your Majesty, do you know what a storm it would arouse if your words were exposed to the public?"
The other elders then looked at Zhang Tie, Xia Yangming and Shi Zhongyu as they were all confused. They didn't know whom to believe at once.
Even the elders of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace thought so, so did the presidents of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. However, someone was smart as he instantly thought of a possibility — — If Xia Yangming and Shi Zhongyu were members of Dark Emperor Immortal Palace, Tang Shenghou and Huo Xianlai must have something to do with them.
If Zhang Tie's words were ordinary, the other elders would definitely believe in Zhang Tie at once. However, Zhang Tie's words were too shocking. Additionally, those who were labeled as moles of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace were elders of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace who shared the same status as them. Therefore, they became a bit hesitant in a split second. As long as someone was involved with Dark Emperor Immortal Palace, he or she would have no shelter in Motian Realm. Even Star Emperor Immortal Palace and Force Emperor Immortal Palace would not spare it, not to mention Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace.
'Does Zhang Tie want to kill Dark Emperor Immortal Palace through others?' Some elders had such a whim. Closely after that, they wavered. 'It doesn't make sense. Zhang Tie's authority in Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace had been established. The other elders didn't pose any threat to him anymore. Additionally, Xia Yangming and Shi Zhongyu didn't have any sharp contradiction or conflict with Zhang Tie.'
In a split second, the air on the viewing platform almost froze.
Zhang Tie shook his head. If Xia Yangming and Shi Zhongyu could admit their real identities frankly and take away their lackeys from Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, Zhang Tie would really let them leave Dragon Emperor Big Domain. They didn't want to be in the frontline of the conflict with Dark Emperor Immortal Palace. However, the moment Xia Yangming and Shi Zhongyu opened their mouths, Zhang Tie had known that they wouldn't give up until they saw the coffin. Additionally, Dark Emperor Immortal Palace was aiming at Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. Even though they were exposed, they would never accept their failure.
"Actually, the old man had already seen through your problem the moment he returned to Dragon Emperor City!" Zhang Tie purposefully watched Xia Yangming and Shi Zhongyu with a disdainful look. Zhang Tie's words and expression stabbed the two people like invisible sharp swords. The two people's wills and confidence were shaken by the name of Grand Dragon Emperor. "Do you know why the old man didn't kill you?"
Xia Yangming and Shi Zhongyu kept their mouths shut tightly. At this moment, if they were less intelligent, they might not be able to help asking "Why?" and confess without being pressed. However, the two elders had been through a lot, so they would not make a fool of themselves at this critical moment.
Zhang Tie didn't expect the two people to answer him; instead, he muttered, "At that time, I was puzzled too. Later on, I knew that the old man had noticed something wrong with you two at the beginning; however, he didn't want the old man to clean up Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace the moment he came back and make Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace a laughingstock in Motian Realm. Therefore, he gave me the right to dispose of you two. Additionally, the old man had noticed something wrong with you two; however, he didn't know what was that thing in your mind sea. As he had not seen it before, he couldn't determine its harm for the time being. Therefore, he didn't do anything to you. However, after Dark Emperor Immortal Palace was exposed, I immediately understood that if Dark Emperor Immortal Palace wanted to attack Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, they could only support one or two puppets among the elders of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. Finally, those puppets would take over the entire Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. By then, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace would only exist in name and completely become the appendage and parasite of Dark Emperor Immortal Palace. It was also the method that Dark Emperor Immortal Palace used to control Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace at the lowest cost. Not until then did I understand whom did you two rely on and why you didn't attack Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace!"
"Your Majesty, if you want to punish us, you can always find a pretext …" Xia Yangming let out a deep sigh.
Shi Zhongyu's face turned gloomy as he moved his eyes. After taking a look at the "Four Symbols Heavenly Battle Formation" which had surrounded this place, his eye corners slightly twitched. At this moment, they finally understood why Zhang Tie took them here to watch the drill of Dragon's Teeth Army. Obviously, it was a trap set by Zhang Tie. As long as they entered it, it would not be easy for them to get out of here.
Zhang Tie ignored Xia Yangming and Shi Zhongyu; instead, he told the other elders, "Elders, think about it. Before the old man came back, who proposed that the one who promoted to a supreme-level immortal general should take over Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace?"
After hearing Zhang Tie's words, the other elders became shocked at once as they seemed to understand the key point.
"Your Majesty, I remember it. It was Elder Shi who proposed it when the other elders discussed it with us …" Long Jiutian said as he watched Xia Yangming and Shi Zhongyu. He then moved one step back and made a vigilant gesture. He only needed to release his protective battle qi.
"Your Majesty, do you really want to kill us? Do you want to kill me and Elder Xia without any evidence?" Shi Zhongyu suddenly opened his mouth as he took a look at the other elders and instigated, "I'm afraid that Your Majesty will kill us today. Tomorrow, it will be your turn!"
"It's simple if you want evidence. If you're not guilty, you could allow me to check your mind seas in front of the other elders. It's said that the Golden-Soul Rune Virus of Dark Emperor Immortal Palace is in people's mind seas. If you're innocent, I will apologize to you and kowtow to you …" Zhang Tie said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, just do it …" Elder Xia said as he shrugged.
Zhang Tie replied with a sneer as he moved one step forward and stretched out his hand towards Xia Yangming's head.
An abrupt change occurred …
Before Zhang Tie's hand touched Xia Yangming, Shi Zhongyu suddenly narrowed his eyes as he stomped onto the ground.
Boom …
In a split second, like a pile of alchemist's bombs exploding under the viewing platform, berserk battle qi rushed out of the ground and reached thousands of meters, turning the entire viewing platform into powder in a split second. Even the nearby hillside collapsed a large area.
Zhang Tie had long been prepared for it.
When Shi Zhongyu launched a strike, Zhang Tie had already punched out forcefully, covering Xia Yangming, Shi Zhongyu, Tang Shenghou and Huo Xianlai in a berserk dragon in a split second …
