"Come on, drag this man out and hang him as an example to the public!"
With Ling Dong's shout, the Elders of the True Gang Sect, who were already acting as guards, rushed out. Without saying a word, they dragged Bi Hong, who was still dreaming of becoming an Emperor, out of the palace. With a knot tied, Bi Hong was hung on the archway of the Xingguan Palace.
Poor Bi Hong. He was still dreaming of becoming the Emperor. Before he could react, he was hanged to death!
The leaders of the various factions outside were frightened by Ling Dong's sudden actions.
Especially those who were familiar with Bi Hong. They all knew that Bi Hong had prepared a generous gift for the Xingguan, but he had been hanged by the Xingguan!
As a result, Ling Dong, the fake Xingguan, was labeled as "temperamental". However, this notoriety was a good thing. At the very least, it made the leaders of the various factions respect Ling Dong even more.
Even Bai Jun, the Pavilion Master of the Kuixing Pavilion, who was depressed that he hadn't stirred up a single ripple, kept quiet out of fear. He also had a headache over the temperamental temper of the fake Xingguan Ling Dong.
This kind of temperamental leader was the hardest to please.
Ling Dong, who was sitting high on the throne, took in everything that was happening. His eyes flashed coldly.
Ling Dong thought that even if he had been punished by the Xingguan and the news spread, as long as he, Ling Dong, was still alive, those people wouldn't dare to plot against him.
However, Ling Dong didn't expect that the mere rumor of him being punished by the Xingguan would cause the remaining members of the royal family of the Yaoguang Empire to become restless. While scheming for the throne, they actually wanted to use the Xingguan to plot against Ling Dong.
This time, Ling Dong was impersonating the Xingguan You Qianjun. If the Xingguan You Qianjun had been present and Bi Hong had sent him a generous gift, You Qianjun would definitely have intervened.
However, if the Xingguan You Qianjun had intervened, the Emperor of the Yaoguang Empire would have been replaced. However, the new Emperor would still be a puppet.
"Sometimes, when it's time to be ostentatious, it's time to be ostentatious. Sometimes, I'm too careful and patient! "Ling Dong reflected on himself and immediately made a decision.
"Pass down my orders. From today onwards, there will be two guards in charge of the Xingguan Palace. When I'm not around, they will collect treasures on behalf of me and convey my orders to everyone. They will supervise everyone to complete the tasks I've assigned.
Moreover, from now on, the orders of these two guards will be my orders. It will be the same as if I'm here in person. If anyone dares to disobey, humph! "
Speaking up to here, Ling Dong coldly snorted and the Star Subduing Disk in his Soul Knowledge Sea began to spin wildly, scattering seven-coloured starlight. In the blink of an eye, when the largest amount of seven-coloured starlight had gathered around Ling Dong's Soul Source, a powerful Soul Pressure radiated out in all directions with Ling Dong as the center!
This Divine Soul pressure was like a sharp blade hanging over one's neck, shocking the leaders of the various forces present, causing the hair on the back of their heads to stand on end. There were even a few special envoys sent by the three great empires who weren't known for their cultivation, as well as those cultivators whose cultivation wasn't high, who directly knelt on the ground in fear of this terrifying pressure radiating out.
"We will definitely obey the orders of the two guards!" Ling Dong expended a great deal of effort to exert his Spirit pressure once more, but the effect was obvious. These people, who were usually lofty and arrogant, responded to Ling Dong in unison. Even Kui Xing Pavilion Master joined in the chorus.
However, Ling Dong clearly noticed that while these leaders were responding to Ling Dong, they were also staring at Ling Dong's lips with blazing eyes, as if they were afraid of missing something.
On second thought, Ling Dong understood that these guys were probably waiting for Ling Dong to announce the two guards, who were equivalent to the spokespersons of the Xingguan Palace.
Whoever was chosen by the Xingguan Palace to guard the Xingguan Palace would have a meteoric rise. Not only would they be respected in the entire Tiangang Continent, but they would also be able to summon the wind and summon the rain. The benefits of such a good position would definitely be enormous!
Even Kuixing Pavilion's Master was looking at Ling Dong expectantly. His eyes were filled with fanaticism.
In Kuixing Pavilion's Master Bai Jun's opinion, one of the two guards would definitely be assigned to him. Everything else aside, the generous gift he had given out and his extremely high status among the martialists of the Tiangang Continent had already confirmed this point.
After all, from the Xingguan Palace's point of view, he would definitely find a person of virtue and prestige to manage the Tiangang Continent on his behalf. Only a person of high prestige would be able to carry out the Xingguan Palace's orders better!
"Hmph! All of you must be dreaming!" Ling Dong sneered inwardly as he looked at the blazing eyes of these people, who were led by Kuixing Pavilion's Master Bai Jun. "I won't allow you to do as you wish. Instead, I'll make you feel as if something is stuck in your throats!"
"I already have a candidate in mind for the two guards guarding the Tiangang Continent. The first person is the Alkaid Empire's Pill King Ling Dong!" Ling Dong, who was pretending to be a Xingguan Palace's Celestial Official, directly appointed himself as the first person on duty.
This was to deter those on the continent who had ulterior motives, especially the royal family of the Alkaid Empire. With this appointment, it was better than Ling Dong personally coming out and killing thousands of people.
At the same time, it was also to make it easier for Ling Dong to appear in front of the Xingguan Palace in the future. Ling Dong didn't want to spend so much effort pretending to be Xingguan You Qianjun every time he appeared. The more he pretended to be, the more flaws there would be.
Ling Dong's announcement of the first Xingguan Palace's appointment didn't cause much of an uproar. After a few buzzing noises, many of the heads below were slightly surprised before accepting the appointment.
Of course, many of them had already decided to get closer to this Pill King Ling when the appointment was made. Although Pill King Ling had been punished by the Xingguan Palace half a year ago, he was still able to get the Xingguan Palace's Celestial Official to appoint him as the guard with great authority.
Kuixing Pavilion's Master Bai Jun wasn't surprised that the first person on duty was Ling Dong. After all, Ling Dong and Master Bai Jun were both the strongest people on the Tiangang Continent in the past. It wasn't strange for them to have such an appointment!
However, the Kuixing Pavilion Master, Bai Jun, was looking forward to the second person to guard the palace. He had a feeling that the second person to guard the Star Official Palace would definitely be him.
Therefore, their gazes towards Star Official You Qian Jun were burning with anticipation. Even the leaders of the other factions turned their gazes towards Pavilion Master Bai Jun. It was as though they were on the same page as Bai Jun!
"As for the second person to guard the Star Official Palace, I already have a candidate in mind. That person is …" Ling Dong purposely paused when he spoke to this point. This instantly piqued everyone's interest. Kui Xing Pavilion Master's heart was hanging high in his throat.
"That person is … the Sect Master of True Dipper Sect, Tu Bai!"
"Boom!"
When the words "Sect Master of True Dipper Sect, Tu Bai" appeared in Master Bai Jun's mind, Master Bai Jun felt as though a mountain had collapsed and his heart had fallen into a bottomless abyss!
Disappointment was written all over Kuixing Pavilion Master's face. His face turned extremely ugly.
However, Kui Xing's expression only lasted for a moment. After all, Kui Xing wasn't an ordinary person. The Pavilion Master of Kuixing Pavilion suppressed his disappointment. He immediately realized the importance of You Qianjun's appointment as Celestial Officer.
The two guards of the Xingguan Palace were actually from True Dipper Sect. One of them was Elder Ling Dong of True Dipper Sect, while the other was Sect Master of True Dipper Sect, Tu Bai.
What did this mean?
This meant that True Dipper Sect had gained the absolute trust of Xingguan You Qianjun. If Master Bai Jun hadn't received confirmation that Xingguan You Qianjun was from Dong Luo Sect, he would have thought that Xingguan You Qianjun was from True Dipper Sect.
It was foreseeable that True Dipper Sect would expand rapidly under Xingguan You Qianjun's absolute trust. Even a powerful faction like Master Bai Jun wouldn't dare to clash with True Dipper Sect!
To a certain extent, True Dipper Sect was backed by Xingguan You Qianjun!
From now on, as long as Xingguan You Qianjun's trust in True Dipper Sect didn't change, or if Xingguan You Qianjun didn't appoint a new Xingguan, Master Bai Jun's development would be suppressed by True Dipper Sect.
"Sigh, it seems like I'll have to find a way to destroy Xingguan You Qianjun's trust in True Dipper Sect …" Master Bai Jun sighed helplessly. He then lifted his head and looked around.
The Pavilion Lord Bai Jun's expression turned even uglier when he saw it.
In just one or two minutes, the representatives of the major factions of the Heavenly Dipper Continent, who had surrounded Master Bai Jun and wanted nothing more than to stick their faces to him, had distanced themselves from him. They had gathered around True Dipper Sect's Sect Master, Tu Bai, who had been alone just a moment ago.
The actions of the leaders of the other factions had determined their attitudes!
Master Bai Jun's lips curled into a bitter smile, but there was nothing he could do about it.
"True Dipper Sect is going to prosper …" A prophecy suddenly flashed through Master Bai Jun's mind.
The grand completion ceremony of the Star Official Palace blossomed to its peak amidst the disappointment of the Pavilion Master of the Kui Xing Pavilion. Then, it slowly came to an end. It was only after Ling Dong had re-emphasized a series of goals that everyone left!
"Father, Xingguan You Qianjun values True Dipper Sect so much. He's just trying to suppress Master Bai Jun. Can we change this situation through Master Bai Jun's Master Bai Jun?" On the way back, Bai Shaokui suggested to his father, Bai Jun. He was also very dissatisfied with the day's events.
Kuixing Pavilion Master only needed one sentence to dispel Bai Shaokui's thoughts!
"Lian Xing, the Dongluo Sect behind Xingguan You Qianjun isn't that powerful in the Heavenly Dipper Realm. However, the Dongluo Sect's foundation is in the Vermillion Bird Galaxy, which is above the Heavenly Dipper Realm! It's said that the Dongluo Sect unexpectedly chose Xingguan You Qianjun this time. It was the Dongluo Sect who directly suppressed the appointment through the Vermillion Bird Galaxy Palace! "
