"It's too sloppy."
Song Gudu said that Lu Xingkong's way of handling things was' too sloppy ', which meant that Lu Xingkong had misunderstood Chu Xun.
Chu Xun's identification was not necessarily wrong, and Li Muyang might really be an evil dragon — —
"Is Li Muyang really an evil dragon?"
This was the thought that emerged in the minds of many people present.
It should be said that, if Chu Xun had come forward to identify Li Muyang as a dragon, everyone would only think that it was' child's words carry no harm ', or that' a young man's words are not reliable '.
Everyone would only think that it was a joke, or that there was a mystery behind the attack.
Although everyone would not get involved, they also would not really take what Chu Xun said seriously — — Under the divine continent, how could there be a dragon clan?
There were countless brave people in the nine countries of the divine continent. How many people had found the real dragon clan? Which one of them would rise to become the Dragon Slayer that was admired by the world?
However, if these words came out of Song Gudu's mouth, the weight could not be mentioned in the same breath.
A clan of tens of thousands of years, a giant clan of thousands of years.
The Song clan was endowed with too many dazzling halos and mysterious colours.
Before the establishment of the West Wind Kingdom, the Song clan was already an overlord.
Or rather, during the East Sui and West Sui periods earlier than the West Wind, or even earlier than the Taikang Dynasty and the Wildfire Dynasty, the Song clan was already a force that no one dared to ignore.
After the founding Emperor of the West Wind Kingdom established the West Wind Kingdom, in order to win over the Song clan, he took the initiative to propose to the Song clan to marry a woman of the Song clan. The Song clan allowed. Since then, the number of Emperors of the West Wind Kingdom had married a number of women of the Song clan or families that had a close relationship with the Song clan.
There was a proverb in Tiandu: Chu and Song share the world.
In fact, it should be the Song and Chu share the world. According to the ranking of power, the Song family should be ranked ahead of the Chu clan.
Because while the women of the Song clan were firmly in control of the harem, the outstanding children of the Song family had also been controlling the politics of the Kingdom.
There were two ministers, and the position of the Right minister had always been held by a direct relative of the Song family. Including the 'Eye of the Starry Sky' Song Gudu, who had once served as the Minister of the Empire.
Most importantly, the Song Family was also known as the 'Imperial Library'. In other words, the selection of the world's outstanding scholars, such as compiling history books and grading, were all decided by the Song Family.
Whoever the Song family wanted to support, that person would be able to go from a commoner's youth to an Imperial Academician that everyone admired overnight.
Whoever the Song Family wanted to step on, that person would turn from a proud son of heaven to a bandit that the world despised.
The hearts of the scholars in the world were all with the Song family.
All the scholars in the world knew about the Song family.
As a result, no one in the Empire dared to provoke the Song Family, a family that could directly control public opinion. Who would dare to offend all the scholars in the world? Who would want their own clan or family to be hated by everyone? Who would be willing to have their name written by those scholars be infamous for thousands of years?
The brush was as sharp as a knife. Sometimes, those who wrote were even more ferocious and terrifying than those who carried swords.
Even the West Wind royal family, the Chu clan, maintained a respectful and humble attitude in front of the Song family, and dared not consider themselves as masters.
Fortunately, the Song family knew when to advance and when to retreat, and knew how to endure. Although they were secretly powerful and had great influence in all aspects of the Empire. But they also understood the essence of concealing one's strength and biding one's time, and absolutely would not compete with the Chu clan for the limelight. When Song Gudu was in power, he had long abdicated his position, and then lived in the old mansion outside the city, protecting the safety of Tiandu with the attitude of a West Wind guardian, and not letting foreign enemies take a step into the city.
The successive generations of the Song family had also done so, and this move had won the hearts of the people. Even if the royal Chu clan was dissatisfied with them, they dared not complain in public, and constantly put them on the pedestal.
Such a huge Song family, the head of such a huge family, for him to stand up and say that Lu Xingkong had handled the situation unfairly — — no one present dared to treat this sentence as a light and calm accusation.
Chu Xianda looked astonished. "Elder Song, do you mean — — there are other possibilities?"
Cui Xichen was silent, watching the development of the situation with a thoughtful look on his face. He wondered whether Song Gudu was pointing his sword at Lu Xingkong, or at Li Muyang, who had just defeated Mu Dingyi?
Could it be that he also felt the threat of Li Muyang, or wanted to seize the precious treasure of the divine continent, the heart of the weak water, so he wanted to put a bad name on him, and then openly kill him?
In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
Lu Xingkong raised his eyebrows, staring at Song Gudu. "What is State minister's intention?"
He did not ask Song Gudu 'what is his intention', but bluntly said 'what is his intention'. What he meant was that we all know what you said is extremely absurd. But since you said it on the spot, it proves that you have other goals that you want to achieve. Don't beat around the bush, it's refreshing to directly say what you really think.
"I came too late, to let a junior suffer such grievances." Song Gudu gently sighed, a compassionate look on his face. "Everyone here is the elite of the kingdom, but can't see as clearly as a junior — —"
Chu Xun burst into tears. He did not expect Song Gudu to stand up for him, and even more did not expect that someone of Song Gudu's status would stand up to support his point of view.
"Grandpa Song, what Chu Xun said is true — — In the illusion, Chu Xun saw with his own eyes that Li Muyang had transformed into a black dragon, and used cruel means to kill the Changbai seven sons one by one — — I'm not lying, what I said is the truth."
Song Gudu stretched out his hand, and a ball of pink flowers flew towards Chu Xun's eyes.
The plum blossom petals drilled into Chu Xun's eyes and disappeared, and the bleeding wound immediately healed. Moreover, even the two empty and ugly black holes were smoothed out, covered by several plum blossoms, and looked much more comfortable and beautiful than before.
"Don't be impatient." Song Gudu comforted. "True is true, false is false. Who can cover the sky and the sun? If you really feel wronged, the people here will seek justice for you. "
"Thank you, Grandpa Song — —" Chu Xun said in a sorrowful voice.
Song Gudu looked in the direction of Li Muyang. "Let the Flying Feather Army escort the people down the mountain."
"Elder Song — —" Chu Xianda called out.
"So as not to hurt the innocent." Song Gudu interrupted Chu Xianda's words.
Chu Xianda knew that he couldn't refute Song Gudu's words, and glanced at the General of the Flying Feather Army Chu Yuxuan. Chu Yuxuan gave a cupped fist salute, and with a wave of his hand, the many generals around him began to issue orders. The Flying Feather Army formed a human wall, forcing the onlookers to walk towards the foot of Mist Mountain.
"What right do you have to drive me away? The war is not over yet, I'm not leaving — — "
"Big brother, do me a favor, I'll take one more look, one more look, you keep this bag of gold coins — —"
"Do you know who my father is? I tell you, you'll be scared out of your wits — — "
※ ※ ※
The brief riot soon subsided. Whether it was those who wanted to use money to bribe or those who wanted to use power to intimidate, they were all swept towards the foot of Mist Mountain.
"What does Elder Song want to do?" Chu Xianda asked.
"I want to test Li Muyang myself." Song Gudu explained. "If Li Muyang really is a dragon, and has exposed his true form, then on Mist Mountain, there will be heavy casualties — — Dragons are fierce and powerful, we must not be careless."
"I don't agree." Lu Xingkong said in a low voice.
It was a refusal, but also an attitude.
His voice was not loud, but it was extremely powerful. That kind of power was like a blade of grass breaking through the soil, a roar of being strangled, a trapped beast fighting, a dance with the wolf.
His voice was so abrupt, and so strange.
Everyone had an incredulous look on their faces, staring blankly at Lu Xingkong. They did not expect Lu Xingkong to disobey Song Gudu in front of so many people — —
Even Song Gudu himself was a little surprised. For many years, no one had ever dared to say the word 'no' in front of him.
Oh, except for his most beloved little granddaughter Song Chenxi.
He looked deeply at Lu Xingkong, asking aloud, "You don't agree?"
"I don't agree." Lu Xingkong said aloud again. It was still the same tone, still the same tone. But because of this repetition, it seemed more firm and determined.
"Why?"
"It's better to let him die." Lu Xingkong stated. "Since he returned to Tiandu, you have attacked him again and again, to force him. The dignified God of Sword of West Wind has unexpectedly become an assassin, lying in ambush on the street just to kill a plain-clothed youngster. The Old immortal of Still water, Mu Dingyi, is a famous and powerful cultivator of the divine continent, but he shamelessly came to deliver a letter of challenge, just to kill him in front of the people, to wash away the mistakes his son has made and the shame he has suffered — — "
"The Gods and Buddhas have blessed us, Li Muyang is still alive. He escaped Mu Yubai's ambush, and he also defeated Mu Dingyi's challenge. His body was exhausted, and before he had time to catch his breath, someone jumped out and slandered him as a dragon, and ordered people to test him — — "
"Now, State minister is going to take action again, just because someone said that the poor child is an evil dragon — —" Lu Xingkong and Song Gudu looked into each other's eyes, his expression calm, but the words that he said were extremely powerful. "State minister, why don't you kill him with a sword?"
Lu Xingkong pointed to Li Muyang, who had collapsed on the Sword God Square. "He is now riddled with scars, his essential yuan has been exhausted, and he doesn't even have the strength to stand — — There is no need for State minister to personally take action, that would destroy your century-old reputation. You can casually appoint someone, there are so many of your trusted subordinates here, you can casually appoint someone and he can go over and behead Li Muyang — — "
"No need to test, behead him — —" Lu Xingkong's voice rose, and there was unconcealable grief and indignation in it. "State minister, why go to so much trouble?"
Song Gudu stared at Lu Xingkong for a long time, before he finally said aloud, "What if I insist?"
"Then kill me." Lu Xingkong took a step forward, blocking in front of Song Gudu.
