The Emperor had left. Whether or not he would appear on the day of the competition was no longer important.
What was important was that he had granted life to one person in the top 32. This person was an outsider who had nothing to do with the competition.
In the three thousand years of the Jin dynasty, such a thing had never happened.
What did this mean?
It meant that the person who was half-kneeling on the ground in the arena could really not die.
Almost no one could understand why Shenshao would say such a thing.
But the Lone Demon Granny had been absent-minded. Her eyes, which had seen the vicissitudes of life for tens of thousands of years, were gradually filled with shock. Her mouth, which only had two old teeth, opened and closed as if she was saying something …
"Plotting against me, plotting against me!"
Wu Shang looked left and right and thought for a while. He realized that other than bringing Xie Tian out of the palace, he had come for nothing. Even if he had not come, it seemed that Xie Tian would be fine.
"The Emperor is still the best. With one word, Xie Tian would not have to die!"
Wu Shang admired people who were stronger than him, such as his father who called him a big idiot, or the Emperor who could kill ten thousand people with one word.
But Wu Shang, who had given the Emperor all the credit for Xie Tian's immortality, did not know that Shenshao, who had walked into the palace laughing heartily, had stopped in his tracks, his smile a little stiff.
"Your Majesty, what is it?" Even though he was shocked, the middle-aged official still noticed the situation in time.
Shenshao blinked, not knowing whether he should be angry or laugh.
"Ah, this is strange. No wonder he has waited for three thousand years!" Shenshao sighed, smiled, shook his head, and walked forward.
In the arena.
Xie Tian finally came back to his senses. But he did not feel overjoyed. Instead, he was almost drowned by endless fear.
That's right, he was planning to kill the monk to break the game, to make the demons counterattack, to make the Tempest Temple cry out, and finally to make the demons, the Wang family, and the Wang family attack him.
All of this was to attract the Emperor's interest. Once the Emperor was interested, he could talk about his conflict with the Wang and Xie families.
He believed that in the presence of the cultivators of the Nine States, no matter how much the Divine Emperor cared about the two families, he would resolve the grievances between him and the two families.
Other than breaking the trump card game, this was the second game he wanted to break.
His plan was successful, but terrifyingly so.
Because the method Shenshao used to help him solve the second round was too terrifying.
Directly granting immortality was enough to shake the entire Nine States Major World.
Because Shen Shao was the overlord of the Central State, the overlord of the Nine Prefectures, the Divine Emperor of the Jin dynasty.
His words were enough to make the Holy Zhi Palace and the Eight Major Holy Lands of Cultivation take Xie Tian very seriously. From now on, anyone who dared to kill Xie Tian other than those of the same generation would have to bear the wrath of the Divine Emperor.
But what was even more terrifying was that the Divine Emperor had said this under the premise that he had been schemed against.
Xie Tian shuddered involuntarily. He couldn't imagine what would happen to him if the Divine Emperor reacted.
"Too scary!"
Under the visor, Xie Tian's face was as white as a sheet. The fear in his heart was still surging. He glanced at the palace in the distance in horror, deeply afraid that a group of celestial soldiers and generals would rush towards him.
"Things are done. Run!"
Xie Tian didn't dare to stay any longer. He immediately ran to Wu Shang's platform and said respectfully, "Lord Wu Shang, I would like to ask you something."
Everyone's ears perked up. All kinds of Divine Senses and Divine Consciousness were spread out, wanting to see what kind of earth-shattering words this undying man would say.
"Speak." Facing Xie Tian, Wu Shang was a little uncomfortable, but he still opened his mouth.
"I have a military duty, so I dare not be negligent. May I ask where the teleportation portal is?"
Boom!
On the platforms all around, people fell to the ground.
Wu Shang was overjoyed. This was a very simple question. Not only could he answer it, but he could also send Xie Tian over.
So he carried Xie Tian off the main platform. As he ran, he said, "You and I have to listen to what the Divine Emperor says. He told you not to blink, so don't blink in the future!"
"Yes, sir!"
"You can hit other places on the face!"
"Uh, yes, sir!"
"Look at my hair!"
Seeing his peers looking at him strangely, Xiao Shu's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He gritted his teeth and said, "It's not like you didn't see that kid's dirty tricks. Even the Divine Emperor said he was shameless. I was ambushed!"
"Daozi, that kid is only, only in the Dharma Power Realm!"
"Dharma Power Realm plus Void Realm plus True Energy Realm plus True Energy Realm Divine Soul. I'm being humble by not saying that he's a Perfected Being!"
Xiao Shu Daozi left after leaving behind a sentence that made everyone think deeply.
"Sigh, a ninth-grade spirit root and the Myriad Manifestation Body. No wonder he's a triple cultivator!"
Hong Ren showed a look of pity and said what everyone was thinking.
Grandma Lone Demon finally came back to her senses and sighed with a smile. "The Myriad Manifestation Body? With his talent, so what if he can't become a Perfected Being? Eh, where's my dress?"
"Great-grandmother, she ran away with a red face. Do you want me to catch her and bring that kid back?"
Hong Yong seemed to have expected something and blinked his eyes that were filled with the words "rich husband"!
"Aiyaya, let go. Great-grandmother, let go. It hurts!"
Grandma Lone Demon was angry and amused at the same time. She grabbed Hong Yong's ear and scolded, "Hong Yi only learned the first level of Tiangang Exquisite Steps. That kid Xie used the second level. Did he learn it from you?"
In the end, Hong Yong was still kicked back to the clan grounds by Hong Ren to reflect.
As the Clan Master, Hong Ren knew that after this incident, the ordinary youth who accidentally clashed with Hong Yi had become very extraordinary. In terms of reputation, he was even more famous than Hong Yi.
However, some things could not be rushed. Especially for the Hong Clan, one of the top ten aristocratic families, they could not be too unsightly.
"But, it's time to start preparing!"
Hong Ren looked at Grandma Lone Demon inadvertently and saw that his great-grandmother nodded slightly. He immediately understood.
The higher-ups of the Wang and Xie Clans left with dark expressions after Shenshao left. As for Xie Dong …
"Xie Dong, according to the Clan Master's orders, your title as a Young Master will be revoked and you will be demoted to an unorthodox disciple. Your treatment will be reduced to the lowest level. The mines in North Jin City are still lacking a steward. Go!"
A disciple of the She Clan sneered and threw out the decision of the higher-ups. This decision was made in response to Shenshao's indifferent glance towards the She Clan.
At the Wu Clan's seat.
"Everyone in Middle State knows that the Five Elements Innate Body belongs to the Wu Clan. This person …" An elder frowned and said.
Clan Master Wu Ling frowned and looked at Wu Fei, "What do you think?"
"This …"
Wu Fei also felt a headache. It was impossible to say that this matter was not a problem. At least, the Wu Clan had lost a lot of face. However, the Divine Emperor had spoken, and the Wang and Xie Clans had fled. Even if there was a problem, what could the Wu Clan do?
"Clan Master, I heard Wu Tu scolding you for making friends before he fainted!"
Wu Ling's eyes lit up. "You really called Wu Tu over?"
"Shameless to the extreme, truly shameless to the extreme!" Wu Tu scolded.
Du Long wanted to laugh, but he couldn't. After a while, he said, "I reminded you that he has designs on your Five Elements Dharmic Power. You said that you were going to rely on this joke to live for the rest of your life."
"Ahhhhh! What Myriad Forms Physique? How could he do such a thing?!"
The Wu Clan looked at each other in dismay, but they heaved a sigh of relief in their hearts. From the looks of it, this Shang 'er's relationship wasn't simple.
"What?!" Wu Tu's eyes widened. "You still want this kind of shameless person to be a guest elder?!"
Wu Fei chuckled. "After all, it's fate, isn't it?"
"I won't do it!"
"I'll make the decision and let you enter the Wu Clan's Secret Realm!" Wu Ling said.
Wu Tu's eyes lit up, and he gritted his teeth. "This guy is so lucky!"
"Clan Master, opening the Wu Clan's Secret Realm costs a lot. Ten thousand Elephant Physiques, is it worth it?" Wu Fei asked worriedly after the two left.
Wu Ling sighed. "The future of the Wu Clan rests on Wu Tu alone. Only by bringing Xie Tian into the Wu Clan can we not tarnish the reputation of the Five Elements Spiritual Body!"
Xie Tian had left, but the commotion he caused at the Exchange Conference couldn't be dissipated.
As the Exchange Conference came to an end, the news spread like the wind to the Hall of Etiquette.
"Ninth-grade Spirit Root Myriad Forms Physique!"
Xie Yun's cold eyes were filled with doubt, as if she couldn't believe that such a trash physique could produce such a dazzling light.
But not long after, she found the answer from the conversations of her fellow clansmen.
"Struggling on the edge of life and death!" Xie Yun sighed and murmured softly. "As expected of a death camp that can compete with the Holy Zhi Palace. They've gone through many battles and forcibly made up for their lack of talent. This is what I lack!"
Xie Yun suppressed the bitterness and hatred in her heart and walked towards her room.
"Haha, I finally found out what that commander's name is. So his surname is also Xie, but he's not from the She Clan. His name is Xie Tian!"
Boom!
Xie Yun was struck by lightning.
