Shui Jing's death vote was within Nie Tian's expectations, and did not come as a surprise to him.
There were still five Clan Chiefs remaining. Their votes were extremely important.
The Fire Elves' Clan Chief Yan Sheng took a step forward and spoke in a Cold manner, "I vote, death!"
Nie Tian frowned, but did not have much of a reaction.
Following that, the Earth Elves' Clan Chief and the Golden Elves' Clan Chief spoke at the same time, "I vote, death!"
Of the five great Elf Clans, apart from the Wood Elves, the other four were all in an alliance. Shui Jing's attitude directly caused the other three Elf Clans' Clan Chiefs to vote death.
Of the eight Clan Chiefs, six had already declared their votes. Two voted to live, and four voted to die.
Only the Dark Monstrous Clan's Clan Chief and the Blood Fiend Monstrous Clan's Clan Chief remained. If either of them voted to die, it would mean that Nie Tian would be executed.
The Holy Duelist frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Have the two of you decided?"
"Yes," the two of them nodded. Then, they took a step forward and said, "I vote, death!"
Their calm voices represented their resolute attitude.
The Dark Monstrous Clan's Clan Chief and the Blood Fiend Monstrous Clan's Clan Chief had both voted to die for Nie Tian.
Hearing their voices, the Holy Duelist was startled, and froze on the spot.
Although it was not a surprising result, he was still unable to accept it when it actually happened.
Nie Tian frowned, and his expression changed.
He already knew that the eight Clan Chiefs would vote to sentence him to death. But at that moment, he was still very shocked, and at a loss as to what to do next.
He would naturally not allow himself to be captured without putting up a fight. However, with his current strength, any one of the many experts present would be able to instantly kill him.
"Die! Die! He deserves to die! "
After several seconds of deathly silence, the crowd reacted and immediately burst into frantic shouts.
Evidently, this result was precisely what the majority of the crowd wanted to see.
"Whoever dares to touch Nie Tian will have to ask me first!" Right at that moment, a voice was heard. Then, a figure appeared and blocked Nie Tian's path. It was Huo Dong.
Huo Dong knew how important Nie Tian was, and he would never let him die here.
"How dare you! This is the consensus of the Eight Clans. Even if you are the High Priest of the Black Scales, you cannot defy it!" When Shui Jing saw Huo Dong appear, he immediately roared angrily and his whole body's aura rose.
"I don't care. No one is allowed to touch Nie Tian!" Huo Dong roared in a deep voice. He looked like he was ready to risk his life.
"Courting death!" Shui Jing laughed coldly. He took a step forward and threatened, "High Priest Blackscales, I don't have much patience. If you don't back off, you will die with this human!"
"Shui Jing, how dare you!" Almost at the same time, Hei Xuanshui said loudly, "Whoever dares to touch the High Priest of the Black Scale Tribe will be the enemy of the Black Scale Tribe!"
"Hei Xuan Shui, are you going to go against the agreement of the Eight Clans for this human?" At this moment, Yan Sheng stood up and shouted.
Immediately, the chiefs of the other tribes tensed up and prepared to make their moves.
In the blink of an eye, the atmosphere at the scene became extremely tense. As long as someone made the first move, it would immediately ignite a great battle between the various powerhouses.
"Impudent! All of you, stop! " At the most critical moment, the Holy Duelist took a step forward. His aura was wild and forceful, forcing the other powerhouses to retreat.
"What a powerful aura!" Seeing this scene, Nie Tian thought that it was extremely shocking.
An expert at the half-step Saint level was really terrifying.
Huo Dong and the other chiefs were all peak Paramount Gods, but they were actually forced back by the aura of the Holy Duelist. This showed how strong he was.
"Lord Holy Duelist!" The chiefs were forced back by the Holy Duelist. Their faces turned red and they hurriedly bowed, not daring to be arrogant anymore.
"You are all chiefs of the tribes. How can you fight with your lives so easily? What a scandal!" The Holy Duelist angrily rebuked, and his aura gradually retracted.
Then, he turned his gaze to Huo Dong and asked, "High Priest Blackscales, are you going to protect Nie Tian?"
"Yes!" Huo Dong nodded heavily and said, "Even if I die, I must not let anything happen to Nie Tian."
The Holy Determiner's eyes narrowed slightly. He immediately looked at Black Profound Water and asked, "Black Profound Water, if High Priest Black Scale risked his life to protect Nie Tian, what would your Black Scale Clan do?"
Hei Xuanshui raised his head to look at the Holy Swordsmen and solemnly said, "Live and die together with the high priest!"
"Black Mysterious Water, are you crazy? You dare to go against the agreement of the Eight Clans for a human? "Shui Jing suddenly raised his head and looked at Hei Xuan Shui with a gloomy expression as he roared.
"So what if I do? If you force me into a corner, I, Black Profound Water, will do anything! "Black Profound Water did not care about Shui Jing's threat at all and shouted arrogantly.
"Black Profound Water, you … you're simply crazy!" Shui Jing didn't expect Black Profound Water's determination to be so resolute, actually daring to go against the Eight Clans Consensus.
"Alright! All of you, shut up. "The others still wanted to say something, but they were interrupted by the Saint Duelist.
Nie Tian looked at the Saint Duelist and didn't know how the latter would deal with the current situation.
The current situation was that because of Huo Dong, the Blackscale Demonic Race would risk their entire race to protect Nie Tian.
However, the result of the Eight Clans Consensus was to kill Nie Tian.
Following this, if they weren't careful, it would inevitably lead to the eight clans killing each other.
"I've been a Saint Duelist for hundreds of thousands of years." At this time, the Saint Duelist let out a long sigh and said, "Perhaps in your eyes, a Saint Duelist is a high and mighty existence that is revered and worshipped by others.
However, only I know how heavy this position is. Sometimes, I'm even suffocated by the three words' Saint Duelist '. "
"Sir Saint Duelist, you …" The patriarchs felt that the Saint Duelist's tone and demeanor weren't right, so they couldn't help but worry.
The Saint Duelist bitterly smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Therefore, today, I've decided to let go of the heavy burden of being a Saint Duelist."
"This …" The patriarchs were shocked by the Saint Duelist's words. Their expressions were repressed, and they couldn't say anything for a long time.
The Saint Duelist actually didn't want to be a Saint Duelist anymore!
This was absolutely earth-shattering news for the Nine Clans.
The surrounding crowd was also stunned as they looked at the scene before them in disbelief.
The Saint Duelist had an extraordinary significance to the Nine Clans. He was a very special existence.
Now that the Saint Duelist had suddenly announced that he was stepping down, who would be qualified to be the next Saint Duelist?
The Saint Duelist was the number one expert of the Nine Li Demon Realm. His existence represented the highest authority of the Nine Clans.
In the eyes of the Nine Clans, aside from the current Saint Duelist, no one else was qualified to be a Saint Duelist.
The eyes of the eight patriarchs flickered as they tried to dissuade the Saint Duelist. "Sir Saint Duelist, your identity is extremely important to the Nine Clans. You can't step down."
"Say no more. I've already decided." The Saint Duelist waved his hand and interrupted the eight patriarchs, saying, "Moreover, I've already found the next Saint Duelist."
"The next Saint Duelist!" Everyone was stunned. They looked at the Saint Duelist with burning eyes and cried out in shock, "Who is it?"
"Him!" The Saint Duelist's eyes were like torches as he pointed at a silver-haired martial artist.
