Shuiyuan Kaori was stunned by the Holy Swordsman's roar. With a thud, he knelt down again, and his entire body turned into a pile of mud.
"You bastard! Why did you kill An Youli and Xue Hen?!" the Holy Swordsman roared furiously, as if he had gone mad.
He had risked his old face to save Shuiyuan Kaori's life in the matter of the Nine Li Stone Stele. How could he have imagined that Shuiyuan Kaori would kill two people of such status?
Now, even a Holy Swordsman could not save Shuiyuan Kaori.
Because just now, Xue Xing and An Youmeng had committed suicide in front of everyone for killing Yan Wuzun.
Now that Shuiyuan Kaori had killed An Youli and Xue Hen, if he could still live, where would the dignity of a Holy Swordsman go?
Even though he was a Holy Swordsman, he could not shield his own disciple so blatantly.
The Holy Swordsman seemed to have gone mad. In an instant, he had aged a lot.
Not only did he treat Shuiyuan Kaori as a master and disciple, he also treated him like a father and son.
In fact, he doted on Shuiyuan Kaori even more than his father, Shui Jing.
Perhaps it was precisely because of this that Shuiyuan Kaori had such an arrogant and ruthless personality.
The Holy Swordsman was a sensible person. He did not blame Nie Tian, because he knew that it would be better for him to speak about this matter now.
If he spoke about it now, only Shuiyuan Kaori had died, and if the Dark Goblin Tribe and the Blood Fiend Monstrous Tribe found out about it, it would be a war between the three tribes.
"Teacher, I …" Shuiyuan Kaori was so scared that his face turned pale. He could not even speak.
Xue Xing and An Youmeng had just committed suicide in front of him. That scene was still vivid in his mind.
And now, it was his turn to commit suicide.
"Shuiyuan Kaori, now that things have come to this, I cannot protect you anymore. Do it yourself," the Holy Swordsman sighed. His aged body was trembling.
Despair filled Shuiyuan Kaori's eyes. His entire body was completely stiff.
Seeing this scene, Nie Tian did not expect Shuiyuan Kaori to have such a high status in the Holy Swordsman's heart.
"Wait." After thinking for a while, Nie Tian suddenly took a step forward and gestured to Mizuhara not to rush into action.
"You bastard, I'm about to die, are you still not going to let me go?" Mizuhara Kaori suddenly raised her head and stared at Nie Tian with bloodshot eyes as she roared.
Nie Tian furrowed his brows and ignored him. Instead, he turned his gaze to the Holy Duelist and said, "Lord Holy Duelist, I feel that Mizuhara Kaori's matter can be put aside for now. Let's deal with my matter first."
"You?" The Holy Duelist was stunned for a moment. He had wanted to deal with Mizuhara Kaori first before talking about Nie Tian. He had not expected that Nie Tian would step forward on his own at this moment.
"Yes, kill this human first!" Nie Tian's voice wasn't loud, but the people around him heard it clearly. They immediately echoed and shouted.
This time, they completely agreed with Nie Tian's suggestion. They wanted to see Nie Tian killed first.
The Holy Duelist's eyes narrowed slightly. He could sense an almost overbearing confidence from Nie Tian's expression. He did not even dare to believe that a late Overgod could actually remain so calm before him.
"He activated the Jiuli Stele. He's even more powerful than the Onyx Emperor back then. Looks like his talent is definitely above the Onyx Emperor's."
The Holy Duelist looked at Nie Tian and thought to himself, "I need to find a way to protect him!"
Most of the people of the nine races did not know what the person who activated the Jiuli Stele meant to the nine races, but the Holy Duelist knew very well how important Nie Tian was to the nine races.
Nie Tian was destined to affect the fate of the nine races. If he died, it would be the same as ending the future of the nine races.
It was because of this that the Holy Duelist had to protect Nie Tian.
However, the people of the nine races were in high spirits right now. Protecting Nie Tian would not be easy.
Even the Holy Duelist could not go against the wishes of the nine races and act willfully.
"Alright, since you've brought it up, I'll deal with your matter first." The Holy Duelist calmed down and glanced at Nie Tian. Then, he looked around at the crowd and said loudly, "This human is without a doubt the person who activated the Jiuli Stele."
"You all know that the Jiuli Stele is the sacred stone of the nine races, the Stone of Destiny. The person who activates the Jiuli Stele is the person who can change the fate of the nine races."
"Although he's a human, he has indeed activated the Jiuli Stele. So no matter what, he is the person chosen by the Jiuli Stele. "
"I know that you all have a great prejudice against humans, but I must remind you that his life and death is related to the fate of the nine races."
"Now, it's up to you to decide how we should treat this human who activated the Jiuli Stele."
As soon as the Holy Duelist finished speaking, the people of the nine races immediately burst into an uproar.
"This human activated the Jiuli Stele. Can he really change the fate of the nine races?"
"This guy shouldn't have appeared in the Jiuli Demon Domain. Him activating the stele was a mistake!"
"Humans have always been an inferior race. A human doesn't have the right to decide the fate of the nine races!"
The crowd discussed loudly. In the end, most of them felt that Nie Tian didn't have the right to decide the fate of the nine races.
"Kill him! Kill him! Kill him! "
Once again, thunderous cheers resounded from the crowd. Most of them supported the idea of killing Nie Tian.
The Holy Duelist frowned. He had already expected this result.
Nie Tian's expression was also very solemn. He could tell that the Holy Duelist was protecting him and saying a few words on his behalf. However, this didn't change the attitude of the nine races.
The members of the Nine Clans hated humans too much.
"Silence!" the Holy Duelist suddenly said. Everyone immediately calmed down.
The Holy Duelist's eyes flickered, and he said loudly, "Nie Tian is a human, but he activated the Jiuli Stele. This Holy Duelist can understand that you can't accept this.
"Since that's the case, let's follow the previous method. The eight races will discuss and vote to decide Nie Tian's fate!"
"Alright!" The Holy Duelist's suggestion was immediately approved by everyone. They believed that their race leader would make the right choice.
The Holy Duelist nodded and waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet. His gaze swept across the eight race leaders and he said in a deep voice, "Race leaders, Nie Tian's fate will be decided by all of you.
"As the Holy Duelist of the nine races, I must remind you. The fate of the person who activates the Jiuli Stele is linked to the nine races.
"If he dies, the fate of the nine races will be affected. As for what kind of impact it will have, I don't know.
"Your vote is very important. I hope that you won't be affected by your emotions. You must be responsible for your people!"
The eight race leaders nodded. They could obviously hear that the Holy Duelist wanted to protect Nie Tian.
Next, under the watchful eyes of countless people, the race leader voting began.
"I vote to live!" Mu Xiongshan was the first to stand up and express his opinion.
"Me too, to live!" Following that, Hei Xuan Shui also stood up and voted for Nie Tian to live.
The two of them were Nie Tian's supporters to begin with, so their attitude was within his expectations.
"I vote to die!" Shui Jing stood up and said Cold. At the same time, he glared fiercely at Nie Tian.
