"Very well, Jiang Chen. After Heaven Sovereign is removed, I will give you Heavenly Sovereign Palace as a gift. It will be your residence in the Immortal Court."
Star Sovereign looked at Jiang Chen with admiration and gave him Heavenly Sovereign Palace as a gift. In the entire Immortal Court, perhaps only he, Jiang Chen, could receive such a reward.
"Thank you, Sovereign Lord. Disciple has a question."
Jiang Chen pretended to be surprised and excited.
"Go ahead."
Star Sovereign was in a good mood. He found Jiang Chen very pleasing to the eye.
"Sovereign Lord, I want to know if the others in the Immortal Court will object if you want to remove Heaven Sovereign?"
Jiang Chen asked.
"No one will object, but this is not what I want. What I want is for everyone to support me. However, in the Immortal Court, there are some old antiques who are neutral. In their eyes, it doesn't matter who becomes the Sovereign Lord between me and Heaven Sovereign. For example, Elder Ling and your master, Feng Jingyang," Star Sovereign said.
He felt a headache when Ling Liqun and Feng Jingyang was mentioned. These two were upright people and it was hard to change their minds.
Star Sovereign's action was not only to remove Heaven Sovereign. He also wanted everyone to respect and revere him. He wanted to be the true master of the Immortal Court and there should not be any objection from his subordinates.
"Sovereign Lord, why don't you let disciple act like my master and Elder Ling?"
Jiang Chen said with a smile, as if he was willing to share Star Sovereign's burden.
"Oh? Jiang Chen, it would be great if you could represent me to persuade them, it would be much better than me doing it myself. Plus, your cultivation base has skyrocketed, your identity and position are different now. Plus, you've been summoned by me today. Everyone knows that you're going to be one of my favorites in the future. Plus, you're talented and your future is limitless. Feng Jingyang and Elder Ling won't be able to see this. So, it's best if you represent me. "Jiang Chen said.
Star Sovereign was pleasantly surprised. He did not expect Jiang Chen to be so sensible. If Jiang Chen could really persuade Ling Liqun and Feng Jingyang, it would be a piece of cake for him to get rid of Heaven Sovereign.
"It is my duty to share Sovereign Lord's burden. Moreover, Sovereign Lord is blessed by the heavens. Elder Ling and master have no reason not to support you."
Jiang Chen flattered Star Sovereign Lord.
"Alright, Jiang Chen, I'll leave this matter to you. I hope that there will be no opposing voices in tomorrow's meeting, and no one will remain neutral."
I hope that no one will oppose or remain neutral in the meeting tomorrow. "
Star Sovereign patted Chen.
Jiang Chen cupped his fists towards Star Sovereign and left.
After leaving the Star Sovereign Palace, Jiang Chen's face started to show a sinister smile. He promised Star Sovereign to look for Ling Liqun, just to find an excuse to see Ling Liqun.
He had already convinced Feng Jingyang. Since Ling Liqun was a neutral like Feng Jingyang, it was necessary to rope him in.
Moreover, Ling Liqun's influence was much greater than Feng Jingyang's. More importantly, he was a powerful Sixth Grade Great Sovereign. He would be a great help in a war.
Jiang Chen had already obtained some information from Feng Jingyang about the higher ups of the Immortal Court. There were three Sixth Grade Great Sovereigns in the Immortal Court. Other than Star Sovereign, there were two more. One was Ling Liqun, and the other was Hu Yong. Hu Yong had a good relationship with Star Sovereign. He would definitely support Star Sovereign unconditionally.
When Heaven Sovereign had just returned, Hu Yong had suggested Star Sovereign to cripple Heaven Sovereign. Star Sovereign did not do it because he wanted to influence Heaven Sovereign.
Basically, if Ling Liqun was roped in, and together with Heaven Sovereign, there would be two Sixth Grade Great Sovereigns on their side. They would have the power to fight.
If it could be resolved within the Immortal Court, it must be resolved internally. If it could be resolved without the help of Tian Peng Evil Emperor, he would definitely not do it.
Jiang Chen understood that the change in the Immortal Court was not just a matter of battle. It also had a great impact. If Heaven Sovereign defeated Star Sovereign with the help of an outsider, even if he regained control of the Immortal Court and became the Sovereign Lord, his prestige would be greatly affected.
In the Dragon Hall, Jiang Chen met Feng Jingyang.
"Jiang Chen, why did Star Sovereign look for you?"
Feng Jingyang asked.
"He asked me to support him, and also asked me to convince you and Elder Ling."
Jiang Chen told Feng Jingyang about his conversation with Star Sovereign.
"It seems like Star Sovereign is getting impatient. What are you going to do?"
Feng Jingyang looked at Jiang Chen.
"It's very simple. I will first agree to support Star Sovereign. During the conference tomorrow, you will also choose to support him. I will think of a way to buy time for Heaven Sovereign. The Ancient Elephant Bloodline has already been sent to Heaven Sovereign. After receiving the bloodline, Heaven Sovereign's cultivation base will quickly recover to its peak, and he will then fight against Star Sovereign."
Jiang Chen's aura fluctuated. He and Heaven Sovereign had been waiting for this day for a long time. The reason why he came to Fengchi Immortal Court was also for this day.
"It'll be great if we can rope in Elder Ling. Star Sovereign has two Sixth Grade Great Sovereigns, including Hu Yong. Moreover, Star Sovereign has almost controlled the entire Immortal Court's resources. Whether it's the Leopard Hall, the Tiger Hall, or the higher ups, they are all under Star Sovereign's complete control. We only have the Leopard Hall now. Compared to our opponents, we are weak."
Feng Jingyang said. His words were filled with medicinal pills.
"Master, let's go to Elder Ling together."
Jiang Chen said.
"Alright."
Feng Jingyang nodded. Without wasting any time, he brought Jiang Chen and flew towards Ling Liqun's residence.
This time, Jiang Chen had obtained Star Sovereign's permission. Therefore, he could look for Ling Liqun openly without any suspicion.
This was Jiang Chen's shrewdness. It was impossible to deal with someone like Star Sovereign without some tricks.
Ling Liqun's residence was an independent mountain peak. There was a luxurious palace built on top of it. With his identity and status, he could have anything he wanted in the Immortal Court.
At this moment, Ling Liqun stood in front of the palace with a gloomy expression. He was greatly disappointed by Star Sovereign's performance today, which directly affected the old man's mood.
Two silhouettes flew over and landed in front of Ling Liqun.
"Greetings, Elder Ling."
Jiang Chen and Feng Jingyang greeted Ling Liqun.
"Why have you two master and disciple come to my place?"
