"The Supreme Court has not made any comment on this until I left Huaiyuan Palace today; neither did they contact Huaiyuan Palace!" Elder Muyu answered Zhu Elder calmly.
"Before coming to Xuantian City, the clan head had told me that if the Supreme Court of Taixia Country didn't revoke the arrest order of Elder Mushen and prove Elder Mushen's innocence, the clan head would write a letter to the Supreme Court in the capacity of the provincial governor of Yanzhou Province to prove Elder Mushen's innocence!" Zhu Elder said with righteous indignation.
After these well-informed clans in Taixia Country got the news about the catastrophe in Zhongzhou Province, even though the event in Zhongzhou Province had not come to an end, all of them had keenly sensed that the tragedy in Fuhai City might be reversed. It was just a matter of time before the arrest order of Elder Mushen of Huaiyuan Palace was withdrawn.
Previously, the commoners in Taixia Country completely sympathized with Elder Mushen these years. Many people felt that Elder Mushen was a sentimental and righteous man. He had made meritorious deeds in fighting demons in Waii Sub-continent and Taixia Country. How could such a person be possessed by the devil and do such a terrifying thing only for breaking off the engagement?
The commoners' public opinions caused great stress to the Supreme Court; however, before getting new evidence, the Supreme Court always stuck to its original opinion. However, as the news about the catastrophe in Zhongzhou Province spread over, if the Supreme Court still kept accusing Elder Mushen of Huaiyuan Palace based on the original evidence, they would be driving themselves into a fire pit. How could the Supreme Court of Taixia Country bear the surging public opinions and indignation?
Although the Supreme Court of Taixia Country suffered a great loss in the catastrophe in Zhongzhou Province, the Supreme Court of Taixia Country and the Supreme Court of Zhongzhou Province should be held responsible for the negligence of the Heavens Reaching Church and Wen Clan in establishing bloody sea in Zhongzhou Province and arousing a great disaster.
The culprit of Heavens Reaching Church had targeted Zhang family for many times. Now that the culprit had been exposed, the culprit had appeared and caused a disaster across a province. Additionally, the culprit who mastered the Bloody Demon Imitation Method had already appeared. If the Supreme Court still wanted to arrest Elder Mushen in this case, many people would wonder whether the Supreme Court of Taixia Country was on the same side with Heavens Reaching Church. Otherwise, why didn't the Supreme Court discover the conspiracy of Heavens Reaching Church? Why didn't the culprit of Heavens Reaching Church arrest the culprit of Heavens Reaching Church? However, the one who discovered the conspiracy of Heavens Reaching Church was caught by the Supreme Court.
Even the top three chancellors in Taixia Country would not be able to sleep well under such stress and accusations.
"Elder Mushen being wanted is the No. 1 unjustly case across Taixia Country. If Elder Mushen is not redressed, who else would dare fight Heavens Reaching Church at the risk of their lives? If the Supreme Court doesn't redress Elder Mushen's crime, as the branch of Northeast Military Region, our Qian Clan will also write a letter to the Supreme Court to seek justice for Elder Mushen!" Qian Elder expressed his stand on the spot.
After finding that the two clans of provincial governors wanted to seek justice for Elder Mushen of Huaiyuan Palace, all the surrounding knights and elders echoed with them.
Elder Muyu cupped his hands towards them as he looked pretty moved, "Thanks for your righteousness, Huaiyuan Palace will keep it in mind for sure!"
"After attending the opening ceremony of Fire Dragon Hermit, Zhu Clan would like to dispatch clan disciples and knight-level powerhouses to Zhongzhou Province so as to make a contribution to the stability of Zhongzhou Province and gain first-hand intelligence. I wonder whether you have such a plan..." Zhu Elder opened his mouth again.
Zhu Clan was the most powerful clan among the crowd. Therefore, Zhu Elder was the head of all the others. Neither Huaiyuan Palace nor Qian Elder wanted to compete with him.
"Huaiyuan Palace also has such a plan..."
"To tell you the truth, I'm the head of the team of Qian Clan. As the holy war is getting more intense, it's not bad for the younger generation to experience some bloody battles …" Although Qian Clan was also a clan of provincial governor of Tongzhou Province, Qian Clan was a foreign clan which had just rooted in Tongzhou Province for over 20 years. Besides an earth knight clan head, there were only 3 knight elders in Qian Clan, which couldn't even match that of Huaiyuan Palace. After the head of Lu Clan in Spiritualmaple Prefecture of Youzhou Province promoted to a great knight, the number of knights in Lu Clan in Spiritualmaple Prefecture was greater than that of Qian Clan. Therefore, the elders of Qian Clan had to be low-key on this occasion.
"We also have such a plan. It's a long way to Zhongzhou Province. If Zhu Clan wants to go there, they might also take an airboat. By then, we might have to trouble Elder Zhu..." A knight on one side opened his mouth.
Zhu Elder revealed a faint smile as he watched the others. If Zhu Clan claimed to be the second most powerful clan in Northeast Military Region, nobody would dare claim to be the first. Although Commander Cheng was powerful, Commander Cheng's Cheng Clan was not in Northeast Military Region; instead, it was in Yaozhou Province. Zhu Clan deserved to be the first clan across Northeast Military Region.
...
Right then, a loud report drifted from the reception hall, "Guo Hongyi, the head of Guo Clan in Threespring Prefecture... has arrived..."
As soon as the announcement was made, a woman in a fiery red dress walked into the hall accompanied by several guards.
There was more than one female knight in the venue. Guo Hongyi was the only female knight and the clan head across Northeast Military Region. Additionally, Guo Hongyi didn't take any clan disciples with her; instead, she only had a group of guards and clan generals. Therefore, her qi field immediately outshone the knights and elders of the other clans. Therefore, she was pretty eye-catching.
After arriving at the venue, Guo Hongyi raised her head and threw a glance at those knights and elders. Closely after that, she nodded as she didn't intend to join in the fun. She just followed the guidance of a disciple of Wang Clan and took a seat in Guo Clan's seat.
"Lu Dingzhi, the head of Lu Clan in Spiritualmaple Prefecture, Youzhou Province... has arrived..."
As soon as the announcement was made, the elegant Lu Dingzhi walked in with two clan elders and a group of Lu clan disciples ….
4 years ago, after failing the competition for the provincial governor of Youzhou Province, Lu Dingzhi had been in secluded cultivation at home. Later on, although it was said that he had promoted to an earth knight, Lu Dingzhi still didn't show up. To be honest, it was Lu Dingzhi's first time to appear in the public after the competition for the provincial governor of Youzhou Province.
As Lu Dingzhi had already promoted to an earth knight, all the black iron knights and elders at present had to show their respect to Lu Dingzhi out of etiquette and regulations.
Lu Dingzhi could come here because he didn't hold an official position in Taixia Country. If he held an official position in Taixia Country and was an earth knight, it would be improper for him to attend the opening ceremony of an earth knight.
After a short period, the major figures of major clans in the three provinces arrived one after another, including those clans who participated in the competition for the provincial governor of Youzhou Province 4 years ago, including Gu Dashou, the head of Gu Clan. As a result, the entire courtyard of Iron-Dragon Sect was pretty boisterous.
It was a bit out of their imagination that Li Clan who was closest to Xuantian City arrived relatively late. However, all the others at present were shrewd. Only after thinking about it for a short while, they had understood it. As a clan with knights, Li Clan's Miyun Prefecture was adjacent to Fire Dragon Bounty Territory. Xuantian City was carved out of Miyun Prefecture. Among all the major clans at present, Li Clan might have a complex mood at this moment. All of a sudden, a dragon came to Li Clan's side. Li Clan might have not figured out how to deal with this dragon. If Li Clan arrived early, others might think that Li Clan wanted to flatter Fire Dragon Hermit; if not, they would offend Fire Dragon Hermit. Therefore, they could only arrive a bit late on purpose. No matter what, as long as they appeared before the commencement of the ceremony, it would not be impolite.
After a short while, the elders of Zhang Clan, Zhu Clan and Qian Clan had spread the news about the catastrophe in Zhongzhou Province, including the secret of the bloody sea, the news that Elder Mushen of Huaiyuan Palace was going to be redressed and the plan that each clan was going to organize clan knight-level powerhouses and younger generations to Zhongzhou Province. These news were indeed what they were concerned about.
After Li Clan of Miyun Prefecture arrived, the masters and elders of some other clans in the three provinces and the masters and elders of Long Wind Sect, Big Saber Union and Immortal Fist Position Sect in Yanzhou Province and Tongzhou Province who had knight-level powerhouses arrived. Almost all the influential clans and sects in the three provinces had arrived. It was already past 9 am, only about 20 minutes before the opening ceremony of Iron-Dragon Sect would be held at 9: 30 am.
Immortal Fist Position Sect had been established in Yanzhou Province for over 100 years. Nangong Sheng, the master of Immortal Fist Position Sect, was the representative of Immortal Fist Position Sect, which shocked all the guests inside.
Nangong Sheng, the Strong Cloud Hermit, founded Immortal Fist Position Sect in Yanzhou Province 100 years ago. Immortal Fist Position Sect had been operating in Yanzhou Province for many years and was very famous across Northeast Military Region. After Strong Cloud Hermit promoted to an earth knight 20 years ago, Immortal Fist Position Sect in Yanzhou Province became the only powerful sect with an earth knight in Northeast Military Region. Immortal Fist Position Sect became more powerful and regarded itself as the No. 1 sect in Northeast Military Region. All the other sects were suppressed by Immortal Fist Position Sect even though they were not in Yanzhou Province.
Nangong Sheng, Strong Cloud Hermit, didn't come here alone. He was accompanied by two knight-level elders of Immortal Fist Position Sect and some core disciples of Immortal Fist Position Sect. All the knights of Immortal Fist Position Sect, including the head and elders of Immortal Fist Position Sect, appeared to be too "luxurious" …
Watching the solemn looks of Nangong Sheng, the Strong Cloud Hermit and the two elders and disciples, many guests wondered whether they could enjoy a good show today. (To be continued.)
