"Hahahaha, kneel!"
Black Tianzong laughed excitedly while the Black Tortoise elders behind him remained silent. No one said a word, and only a few of them frowned slightly.
The rest of the Black Tortoises had already knelt down.
Turtle-Snake's expression changed drastically. Even now, he could not believe what he was seeing.
A first-generation bloodline? How was that possible? Before he arrived, Turtle-Snake had already guessed that Black Tianzong must have some secrets and that there was more than a sixth-generation bloodline. However, no matter how much he thought about it, he was still a second-generation bloodline, just like himself!
Black Tianzong actually had a first-generation bloodline? How was that possible?
Turtle-Snake immediately looked at Zhong Shan anxiously.
"What's wrong? Who was the one who agreed to that? The Black Tortoise Sect? Heh, what a joke! "Black Tianzong sneered.
Black Tianzong stood on the side of righteousness and naturally wanted to humiliate Turtle-Snake. It would be best if Turtle-Snake knelt down, but if he did not, he would leave a bad impression in the eyes of the Black Tortoises. The Black Tortoise elders would not say anything if he refined Turtle-Snake in the future.
"Holy King!" Turtle-Snake looked at Zhong Shan awkwardly. It was obvious that he did not want to kneel. Ever since he was young, Turtle-Snake had never submitted to anyone other than Zhong Shan.
Everyone looked at Zhong Shan because Turtle-Snake was Zhong Shan's subordinate. If he really knelt, not only would he embarrass Turtle-Snake, but he would also embarrass Zhong Shan. Would Zhong Shan let him kneel?
Zhong Shan shook his head and said, "No matter when or where, you must be responsible for your words. You must honor your words!"
His tone was firm. When the elders heard Zhong Shan's words, they were all shocked. Even Black Tianzong looked at Zhong Shan strangely.
"Yes!" Turtle-Snake nodded with difficulty.
Suddenly, Turtle-Snake recalled Zhong Shan's words from the beginning, "A real man suffers humiliation so that he can soar to the Nine Heavens in the future!" Could it be that the Holy King had guessed this from the beginning? Why would the Holy King do this? This was an embarrassment to Daikon State!
The Daikon State's past immediately replayed in Turtle-Snake's mind. Turtle-Snake's expression suddenly turned serious. Compared to the Holy King in the past, this humiliation was nothing. For the sake of the Great Liao, the Holy King had been humiliated as a hostage and imprisoned in the Inception Sacred Court.
However, the Saint King had done it. After the humiliation, he had soared into the sky and swept through the lands, unifying the Wind Tomb Weave. His former enemies had all been trampled under his feet. At this point, who would still think that the Holy King?? They would only think that the Sage King was wise back then.
Looking at the Black Heaven Sect, the Turtle Snake's expression froze. Humiliation? Today, I will kneel and worship you. In the future, I will trample you under my feet.
As he took a step forward, the Turtle-Snake was about to kneel before the Black Heaven Sect's satisfied gaze.
"Turtle Snake, what are you doing?" Zhong Shan raised his eyebrows.
"Huh?" Everyone was taken aback.
What did Zhong Shan mean? He just asked Turtle-Snake to fulfill his promise. Was he going back on his word?
"Holy King?" Turtle-Snake was puzzled.
"You're worshipping a first-generation bloodline, not a sixth-generation bloodline!" Zhong Shan said calmly.
Zhong Shan's tone was calm, but to Turtle-Snake, it was like thunder. He froze. How embarrassing. Turtle-Snake wished he could find a hole to hide in.
Worshipping a sixth-generation bloodline was humiliating. However, worshipping a first-generation bloodline was a rule of the Black Tortoise Tribe. There was nothing embarrassing about it. Although the first-generation and sixth-generation bloodlines were the same person, they could not be confused.
"Thank you, Holy King!" Turtle-Snake immediately said respectfully.
The elders of the Black Tortoise Race paused for a moment. Then, like turtles and snakes, a few elders' faces turned red. That was because they were the fourth and fifth generation bloodlines. If they worshipped the sixth-generation Black Tianzong, would that not be demeaning themselves?
Although it was just a sentence, Zhong Shan successfully caused a rift between Black Tianzong and the elders.
Black Tianzong did not notice this, but he saw that his plan to humiliate Turtle-Snake had failed. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhong Shan with even more disgust.
"Black Tianzong, I only worship the first-generation bloodline," Turtle-Snake said solemnly.
"I am him, and he is me." Black Tianzong insisted.
Turtle-Snake shook his head and said, "Only the first-generation bloodline is qualified to be worshipped by me!"
Almost all the Black Tortoises were stunned. Only the first-generation bloodline was qualified? Everyone understood what he meant. Turtle-Snake's bloodline was the second-generation bloodline?
Many Black Tortoises gasped. No one expected Turtle-Snake's bloodline to be so high. At the same time, the Black Tortoise Tribe, whose bloodline was paramount, looked at him respectfully.
Black Tianzong's face darkened. However, he could not stop Turtle-Snake from worshipping him.
As his body trembled, the 300-meter-tall Black Tortoise shadow appeared again. It had the same vast aura. Countless Black Tortoises bowed respectfully again.
Zhong Shan's eyes narrowed. He carefully checked the trump card that Black Tianzong had been forced to use. Everything was planned by Zhong Shan. How could Black Tianzong make all the elders of the Black Tortoise Tribe acknowledge him? It turned out that everything came from this body. The first-generation bloodline was the Black Tortoise Tribe's ancestral bloodline.
Did a huge Black Tortoise have four legs or did it not have four legs?
Black Tianzong stood in front of Turtle-Snake, but Turtle-Snake did not look at him at all.
To fulfill his promise, Turtle-Snake lifted his clothes and knelt respectfully in front of the huge Black Tortoise shadow.
"Apart from the ancestral bloodline, I'm Turtle-Snake, the one with the highest bloodline in the Black Tortoise Tribe. Greetings to the ancestral bloodline!" Turtle-Snake said respectfully.
After bowing, Turtle-Snake stood up, and Black Tianzong took the other body.
After bowing respectfully, Turtle-Snake did not receive the humiliation that Black Tianzong wanted. Instead, because Turtle-Snake kept his promise and followed the ancestral rules, the Black Tortoises were full of respect.
More importantly, Turtle-Snake was confident that he had the highest bloodline besides the ancestral bloodline. From now on, other than Black Tianzong's loyal followers, no one in the Black Tortoise Tribe would make things difficult for Turtle-Snake.
Black Tianzong's face darkened. He looked at Turtle-Snake coldly. At the same time, he looked at Zhong Shan with resentment.
"Black Tianzong, aren't you going to invite us in?" Zhong Shan smiled in the face of Black Tianzong's resentment.
Black Tianzong's eyelids twitched. In the end, he said stiffly, "Please!"
"Please!" Zhong Shan said directly.
The group of people each had their own ulterior motives. They stepped into the Black Tortoise Tribe's sacred land.
Not long after, Zhong Shan and the others were arranged to stay in a valley. Black Tianzong naturally did not have the time to befriend Zhong Shan. After making arrangements for Zhong Shan, he left.
In the valley, Zhong Shan set up a new formation. He also used the palace he brought with him.
The group of people entered the main hall.
"Holy King, you're wise. I'm ashamed. I almost embarrassed the Daikon State." Turtle-Snake immediately apologized.
"Mm, don't just focus on your martial strength when you cultivate. You have to practice your mind and methods often too. I'll let it go this time. Study it well in the future!" Zhong Shan nodded and said.
"Yes!" Turtle-Snake said immediately.
At this moment, one of the black-robed people who followed Zhong Shan took off his hat. This person was Dou Wei, the person who explained the forces in the Extreme North to Zhong Shan when Zhong Shan first came to the Extreme North.
"Holy King, I felt the Heavenly Dao just now. Is it true?" Dou Wei was so excited that he spoke incoherently.
Dou Wei was not the only one. Other than the Golden Peng and Ziyang Jinghong, the rest of the black-robed people were trembling with excitement.
Zhong Shan smiled slightly and said, "That was the Heavenly Dao I released. As for you all, cultivate well in the future. There will be a time when you possess the Heavenly Dao."
"Yes!" Dou Wei said excitedly with a hint of worship.
Heavenly Dao, Heavenly Dao. The Holy King released seven Heavenly Dao with a wave of his hand?
"Dou Wei!" Zhong Shan called out again.
"Yes!" Dou Wei replied immediately.
"Restrain your people. For the next period of time, they are not allowed to step out of this valley. They are not allowed to communicate with the outside world. They are not allowed to lift their black robes and expose their whereabouts!" Zhong Shan said in a deep voice.
"Yes!" Dou Wei replied immediately.
Then, Dou Wei quickly put his hat back on.
"With Mister Jinghong covering your tracks, you can cultivate in this valley!" Zhong Shan ordered.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The eight of them replied at the same time.
"You may leave!" Zhong Shan said.
"Yes!"
The eight of them left the hall and went to the hall next door to cultivate in seclusion.
Only Zhong Shan, Ziyang Jinghong, the Golden Peng, and the Tortoise Snake were left in the hall.
"Holy King, there's something wrong with the Black Tortoise with the ancestral bloodline!" The Golden Peng exclaimed.
"That's right. The Tortoise Snake has done well this time. We've almost found the Black Heaven Sect's backing. Next, we just have to make it clearer!" Zhong Shan nodded.
"Holy King, I shall visit the elders of the Black Tortoise Tribe? Ask them about it? "The Tortoise Snake immediately asked.
"Visiting the elders of the Black Tortoise Tribe is a must. In the next period of time, you have to visit them one by one to prepare for the Sacrificial Ceremony. As for asking about it, forget it. Those elders will never tell you the reason! Besides, they might not know. "Zhong Shan shook his head.
"Yes!" The Tortoise Snake immediately replied.
As he spoke, Zhong Shan used a spell to condense the image of a person. If the Black Heaven Sect was here, he would be surprised to find that this person was his think tank, Xuan Zhiyin.
"Holy King, who is this person?" The Golden Peng was puzzled.
"This person is your next target!"
"Oh?"
"Previously, outside the Black Tortoise Holy Land, every time the Black Heaven Sect made a decision, he would unconsciously glance at him. Even when he was suspicious of Dou Wei's identity, I noticed that he sent a voice transmission to the Black Heaven Sect. This person's identity is unusual. At the very least, he should be a confidant of the Black Heaven Sect! Be careful and capture him. I want to interrogate him personally! "Zhong Shan ordered.
"Yes!" The Golden Peng replied respectfully.
"Xuan Zhiyin, didn't you say that those ten people weren't Zu Xian from before? Then what's with their Heavenly Path? "The Black Heaven Sect asked.
"This, this, I don't know. It shouldn't be like this!" Xuan Zhiyin said bitterly.
"Hmph, shouldn't be like this? It's clearly like this. Tell me, what should we do now? This group of people from Zhongshan really moved in openly. What are they planning to do? "Xuan Tianzong shouted.
"I don't know for now. When they make a move, perhaps we'll know Zhong Shan's intentions!"
"Make a move? Do I need you to analyze it then? Useless trash, scram! "The Black Heaven Sect scolded.
The Black Heaven Sect was still angry because of the defeat just now. Xuan Zhiyin did not dare to say much and left the hall gloomily. (To be continued. If you like this work, you're welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
