Under the influence of the Artifact Spirit of the Tower of Radiance, Gongsun Zhi's control over the Radiant Saint Hall directly reached an unprecedented level. No one dared to disobey his orders.
The first thing he did after gaining power was to search for the Martial Soul lineage. In particular, Gongsun Zhi hated Jianchen to the core.
Immediately, all the forces of the Radiant Saint Hall began to move under Gongsun Zhi's orders. They began to search for the Martial Soul lineage across the entire Saints' World.
"This feeling of commanding people is just too wonderful. It's just too enchanting." Gongsun Zhi lay on the leader's throne lazily in the Radiant Saint Hall. He was extremely satisfied.
"Men, summon Xu Zhiping of the Xu Clan and Huangfu Guiyi of the Zhongtian Clan. This Hall Master has something to discuss with them." Gongsun Zhi gave another order. An elder who had condensed a soultree and was equivalent to an Infinite Prime immediately became stern when he heard that.
Xu Zhiping of the Xu family and Huangfu Guiyi of the Zhongtian clan were peak experts who stood at the apex of the plane. They were both Fourth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes, even more powerful than the previous leader of the Radiant Saint Hall, Yu Chen. Yet now, Gongsun Zhi acted like he was ordering people around when they faced peak figures who could shake up the entire Desolate Plane with just a stomp of their feet. This made the elder sweat inside.
Even though the Radiant Saint Hall was very powerful right now, even with the six protectors, the elder still needed to show respect to peak experts like Xu Zhiping and Huangfu Guiyi.
However, there was no respect at all in Gongsun Zhi's words.
Originally, the elder wanted to get the two Divine King Gongsun Zhi to pass on the message, but after thinking about it, it was better for him to go personally.
After giving the order, Gongsun Zhi glanced past the five protectors, Bai Yu, Han Xin, Donglin, Yan Xue, Xuan Ming, and Xuan Zhan. He said seriously, "Don't be in a hurry to leave. Stay here for now. Leave when I give you the order to leave. This time, you must not disobey me like you did in the past. Do you understand? "
Bai Yu and Donglin Yan Xue immediately became furious. Han Xin, on the other hand, remained calm.
Xuan Zhan seemed to have seen through Gong Sun Zhi's intentions. He smiled ambiguously and clasped his fist, "Don't worry, Hallmaster. We won't embarrass you."
Before long, two elders of the Radiant Saint Hall went to the Xu family and the Zhongtian clan respectively. They passed on Gongsun Zhi's words in an extremely tactful manner.
However, even though the two elders made it sound extremely nice, basically showing enough respect to the Xu family and the Zhongtian clan, it still made Xu Zhiping and Huangfu Guiyi, two peak experts who stood at the apex of the plane, extremely displeased.
"Hmph, does Gongsun Zhi really think he's someone important? He actually dares to order the two of us around, "Huangfu Guiyi snorted coldly with a sunken face.
"Gongsun Zhi is becoming more and more arrogant. He actually wants the two of us to go see him in the Radiant Saint Hall? Hmph, if he doesn't have a protector sword, he's just a puny Radiant Godking. Yet, a mere Radiant Godking dares to order the two of us around as he pleases. How absurd, "Xu Zhiping's eyes were cold as well. His face was ugly. Just think about how Xu Zhiping could do as he pleased on the Desolate Plane. A single word from him could change the situation of the entire Desolate Plane. Just how great was his status? Just how great was his power? Yet now, he was actually being ordered around by a Godking. This was basically a form of humiliation.
"My patience with Gongsun Zhi has almost reached its limit. Whatever. For the sake of his promise of giving us a protector sword, we'll just endure it for now. " Huangfu Guiyi sucked in a deep breath and slowly calmed his anger. In the end, he still chose to endure it for now.
"Fair enough. In order to obtain a protector sword for my Xu family, I'll let Gongsun Zhi be smug for now. The vice-leader of the Radiant Saint Hall, Xuan Zhan, has told me that the Artifact Spirit of the Tower of Radiance possesses the ability to withdraw protector swords at any time. I hope Gongsun Zhi can keep Godslayer's sword, or … "A cold light flashed through Xu Zhiping's eyes.
Although Huangfu Guiyi and Xu Zhiping were in different regions and extremely far away from each other, the entire Desolate Plane was nothing to them now that they had reached such a level of cultivation. As a result, they only needed a single thought to communicate with each other through the senses of their souls.
In the next moment, the two of them took a step. Immediately, the world spun around them. They crossed an extremely great distance with a single step, immediately appearing before the entrance of the Radiant Saint Hall. With a few flashes, they directly arrived before Gongsun Zhi.
Huangfu Guiyi sucked in a deep breath as he looked at Gongsun Zhi who reclined on the throne lazily. After calming down his impatience, he clasped his fist and said, "Leader, may I ask why you've come to find us?"
Only then did Gongsun Zhi discover Xu Zhiping and Huangfu Guiyi's arrival. He immediately sat up straight and assumed a condescending attitude. He crossed his legs and said with a smile, "Seniors, you've finally come. I've been waiting here specially for your arrival."
Xu Zhiping and Huangfu Guiyi frowned. In particular, when they saw Gongsun Zhi's condescending attitude, like an emperor receiving his subjects, they were tempted to chop him into pieces.
With their identities and statuses, even the undisputed greatest expert on the Desolate Plane, the Celestial Sword Saint, would never treat them with such a condescending attitude.
Gongsun Zhi seemed to have no idea what Xu Zhiping and Huangfu Guiyi were thinking. He smiled resplendently and waved his hand casually at the five protectors. He said, "Xuan Zhan, Xuan Ming, Donglin, Yan Xue, Bai Yu, Han Xin, the five of you can leave first. I have some matters to discuss with the two seniors."
"If that's the case, the five of us won't disturb the leader any longer!" Xuan Zhan nodded with a smile. He clasped his fist at Gongsun Zhi before withdrawing with the protectors.
Xu Zhiping and Huangfu Guiyi's eyes immediately narrowed when they saw this. They looked at each other in surprise, but they seemed to think of something soon afterwards. They immediately asked, "Has the Artifact Spirit of the Tower of Radiance accepted you as its master?"
Gongsun Zhi had been observing Xu Zhiping and Huangfu Guiyi's expressions the entire time. When he saw the surprise in their eyes, he immediately felt complacent. He said proudly, "The Artifact Spirit of the Tower of Radiance has already awakened. With the support of the Artifact Spirit, I have complete control over the five of them. Moreover, I have the right to choose the final three protector swords. Once the Artifact Spirit recovers some of its power, I will let the remaining protector swords choose a master. "
Xu Zhiping and Huangfu Guiyi were immediately overjoyed when they heard that. Why had they become Gongsun Zhi's subordinates for so long? It was all so that their clans could control a protector sword.
Now that their wish was finally about to come true, the two of them were naturally overjoyed.
