When Ming Jianyu spoke, he used a special method so that only the eight patriarchs could hear him, and no one else.
There were some things that the fewer people who knew, the better.
There were many secrets among the nine tribes that only the Holy Duelist knew.
Ming Jianyu's words had already revealed too many things.
His sincere words stunned the eight patriarchs, and the expressions on their faces kept changing.
At this moment, their minds started to turn.
Previously, they had indeed been thinking more about themselves and had not thought about the overall situation.
Ming Jianyu and Nie Tian did not know each other, but he was trying his best to protect the latter. There must be a reason for this.
From Ming Jianyu's actions as a Holy Duelist, there was only one real reason: Nie Tian was very important to the nine tribes!
When the eight tribes discussed to expel the Ancient Ming Tribe, Ming Jianyu did not oppose it. It could be seen that he had the nine tribes in his heart.
Everything he was doing now was for the sake of the nine tribes, without the slightest bit of selfishness!
After a while, Ming Jianyu opened his eyes again and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, please state your positions."
This time, the clan leaders were no longer calm. They all looked at each other, eager to give it a try.
In the end, Mu Xiongshan took a step forward and knelt in front of Nie Tian. He said in a clear voice, "Mu Xiongshan, the patriarch of the Wood Elf Tribe, pays his respects to Lord Holy Duelist."
"Mu Patriarch, please rise." Nie Tian smiled faintly and gestured for Mu Xiongshan to rise.
Mu Xiongshan's change in attitude was within Nie Tian's expectations, so there was nothing strange about it.
Then, Hei Xuanshui also knelt down and said solemnly, "Hei Xuanshui, the patriarch of the Black Scale Demonic Tribe, pays his respects to Lord Holy Duelist."
Nie Tian smiled faintly and gestured for Hei Xuanshui to rise.
Then, the other patriarchs knelt down one after another and acknowledged Nie Tian's identity as a Holy Duelist.
"Patriarchs, please rise." Nie Tian took a step forward and gestured for the patriarchs to rise.
Everything was developing in the direction that Nie Tian had expected, and it was going more smoothly than he had expected.
Ming Jianyu's tense heart finally relaxed after seeing that all eight of the high chieftains had acknowledged Nie Tian's identity.
In fact, he had already prepared for the worst. If the eight patriarchs did not recognize Nie Tian's identity, he would forcefully take Nie Tian away.
Now that all the patriarchs had acknowledged Nie Tian's position, this was the best situation.
At this time, the members of the Nine Clans were completely dumbfounded. Most of them had ugly expressions on their faces.
They could never have imagined that their patriarch would actually recognize a human as a Holy Swordsman.
However, the eight patriarchs had already expressed their stance. Even if the nine clans were unwilling, there was nothing they could do.
Nie Tian's position as a Saint Duel had been stabilized.
At that moment, Shui Jing nodded slightly and said to Nie Tian, "Sir Saint Determiner, you have just established your identity. Is there anything you want to tell everyone?"
Nie Tian laughed. Of course, he knew what Shui Jing meant.
"Elder Ming, thank you for your trust in me." Nie Tian looked at Ming Jianyu and said in a loud voice, "Since I am the new Holy Swordsman of the Nine Clans, can I handle Mizuhara Kaori's matter?"
Ming Jianyu was startled. He immediately reacted and said, "Of course!"
He was no fool. He immediately understood what was going on.
Earlier, Shui Jing had been the first to acknowledge Nie Tian's identity, which confused everyone.
Now that Nie Tian had suddenly taken the initiative to propose to handle Mizuhara Kaori's matter, Ming Jianyu naturally understood what was going on.
He guessed that Nie Tian and Shui Jing must have made a deal in secret, and that deal concerned Mizuhara Kaori's life.
Ming Jianyu wanted to see how Nie Tian was going to protect Mizuhara Kaori's life.
Mizuhara Kaori had already admitted in front of everyone that he had killed An Youli and Xue Hen. This was practically a situation where he would definitely die.
It would be fine if An Youli and Xue Hen were ordinary people. However, the two of them just had to be the princes of the Dark Monstrous Clan and the Blood Fiend Monstrous Clan.
In that sort of situation, it would definitely not be easy for Nie Tian to protect Mizuhara Kaori.
At that moment, the other Clan Chiefs also sensed something and looked at Nie Tian.
This was especially true for the Dark Monstrous Clan and the Blood Fiend Monstrous Clan's Clan Chiefs. They looked at Nie Tian with very strange expressions.
The two of them were wily old foxes. How could they not see through Nie Tian's intentions?
Nie Tian smiled faintly. His gaze swept across the group of patriarchs and he said in a loud voice, "Patriarchs, regarding the matter of Suihara Kaori killing An You Li and Xue Hen, I believe you still don't know the reason."
The Dark Monstrous Clan's Clan Chief could tell that there was something wrong with Nie Tian's tone. He took a step forward and asked in a Cold manner, "Lord Holy Swordsman, what do you mean by that?"
"Clan Chief Dark, don't be agitated." Nie Tian smiled faintly and said, "Mizuhara Kaori killed An Youli and Xue Hen. That is a fact. However, this Holy Swordsman personally witnessed the battle between the three of them. "
"The three of them fought over the credit of activating the Nine Li Stone Stele."
"However, Mizuhara Kaori was very powerful. That was why she killed An Youli and Xue Hen."
"In other words, if An Youli and Xue Hen were powerful, the one who would have died would have been Mizuhara Kaori."
Hearing the indifferent voice, everyone frowned and their expressions changed.
No one expected that An Youli and Xue Hen would die like that.
Although Nie Tian was defending Mizuhara Kaori, what he said was the truth. An Youli and Xue Hen did indeed have ill intentions.
Shui Jing took a step forward and said furiously, "An Youli and Xue Hen actually wanted to fight over the credit of activating the Nine Li Stone Stele. Their deaths are not to be regretted!"
"Shui Jing, what do you mean by that?" Dark Demon Clan Chief An Lian and Xue Sha Clan Chief Xue Jufeng roared at the same time and looked at Shui Jing coldly.
"The Nine Li Stone Stele was activated by the Holy Swordsman. An Youli and Xue Hen also wanted to take the credit. Don't they deserve to die?" Shui Jing did not back down and said Coldly.
"Bullsh * t!" An Lian roared and pointed at Mizuhara Kaori. "Your son Mizuhara Kaori pretended to be the one who activated the Nine Li Stone Stele. Doesn't that make him even more deserving of death!"
"That's enough!" Shui Jing wanted to say something else, but Nie Tian interrupted him.
Everyone was stunned and looked at Nie Tian in shock. They did not expect him to be so domineering.
Nie Tian did not care about the crowd's reaction. He stared straight at An Lian and Xue Jufeng and asked, "Two Clan Leaders, this Holy Swordsman wants to ask you. An Youli and Xue Hen wanted to take the credit for activating the Nine Li Stone Stele. Do they deserve to die?"
An Lian and Xue Jufeng were stunned at the same time and their expressions turned ugly. After a long while, they said, "Holy Swordsman, they deserve to die. But even so, it is not Mizuhara Kaori's turn to kill them!"
Nie Tian raised his eyebrows and said, "It is indeed not Mizuhara Kaori's turn to kill An Youli and Xue Hen."
"But the three of them wanted to take the credit for activating the Nine Li Stone Stele. Under those circumstances, if Mizuhara Kaori did not kill them, they would kill Mizuhara Kaori."
"Could it be that you want Mizuhara Kaori to stand there and let them kill her?"
