Chapter 900 Emperor’s Imperial Decree

Chapter 900: Chapter 900 Emperor’s Imperial Decree

After being mocked by Ling Xiao, Si Kong Zun was filled with nothing but hatred; all his former wisdom seemed to have dissipated, and at this moment, he probably had even less sense than a three-year-old child.

His actions were becoming more and more foolish.

He had been exposed as a member of the Sea Race; who would dare to obey his orders now?

Keep in mind the fear that the True Demon Empire instilled in the Mysterious World, which to this day had yet to dissipate; now, when the martial artists present looked at him, they felt nothing but hatred and fear.

Even those from Phoenix God College dared not follow his commands.

Obey orders from a member of the Sea Race to execute those speaking the truth?

If word of this got out, could the martial artists from Phoenix God College still hold their heads up high?

"Fine! If you won’t take action, I will do it myself!"

Si Kong Zun seemed to realize this too; although these people dared not attack him, they would no longer heed his commands.

He had to kill this Ghost-faced man, no matter who he was; he had to die.

Those who played tricks on the Lightning Demon King never ended well.

"What a joke, dare to touch him and see what happens,"

Ji Ning scoffed coldly and declared aloud, "This is the Phoenix God Empire, not your True Demon Empire! If you want to kill someone here today, first ask if the martial artists of the Phoenix God Empire agree!"

"That’s right, how many of our people did the True Demon Empire slaughter back then? Are we now supposed to watch them run rampant here?"

With Ji Ning taking the lead, many martial artists who despised the True Demon Empire and the Sea Race stood up as well.

It was only now that Si Kong Zun suddenly realized that in this world, aside from strength, one’s tongue could also be very powerful.

This tongue, indeed, could be more daunting than Divine Weapons.

With just a few words, this Ghost-faced man nearly cornered him completely.

The plans of the True Demon Empire were likely to be ruined because of today’s events.

His strength was clearly several, even dozens of times greater than the Ghost-faced man’s, yet he found himself unable to take action.

Because once he moved, he would probably immediately become the target of all, dying miserably on the spot.

This Ghost-faced man, what deep schemes he had! He had even calculated this, no wonder he dared to speak out.

Seeing Si Kong Zun’s embarrassed state, Ling Xiao felt extremely refreshed in his heart.

Although this satisfaction wasn’t the same as personally defeating Si Kong Zun, it was still a different kind of pleasure.

"Come, follow me to capture this traitor of the Sea Race and deliver him to the Emperor for punishment!"

Ji Ning surely was not going to miss such an opportunity; at his command, many martial artists were eager to try.

"Imperial decree has arrived!"

However, just at that moment, a figure floated in, holding an imperial decree that radiated a soft glow.

The imperial decrees of the Phoenix God Empire were very difficult to forge; the God Phoenix aura emitted could only come from the God Phoenix seal.

"Long live, long live, long, long live!"

Although it was inevitable, Ji Ning and the rest could do nothing but kneel down to receive the decree.

"The Emperor decrees: The Phoenix God Empire and the True Demon Empire have formed an alliance, with hearts and minds united. The addition of Lightning Demon King Si Kong Zun into Phoenix God College is my will; no further investigation is necessary.

Furthermore, Ji Ning has shown loyalty to the throne and the country; his loyalty is commendable. Although he entered the Imperial City without authorization, his merit outweighs his fault, and thus he is awarded ten thousand Upper-grade Spirit Stones, which he may collect as a reward and return to his post without error.

Let it be known!"

After reading the decree, Ji Ning was outraged, his eyes turning red with anger.

Was the Emperor really seeking an alliance with the True Demon Empire?

He sighed heavily, exuding a hint of helplessness.

If this was truly the case, there was nothing he could do; should he insist on capturing Si Kong Zun now, he would be instigating conflict and be branded as a grave sinner disrupting the peace.

"General Ji Ning, won’t you accept the decree?"

"I accept the decree with gratitude! Long live the Emperor, for ten thousand years!"

Ji Ning received the imperial decree with trembling hands, his heart filled with desolation.

Did the Phoenix God Empire really have to walk down a path of self-destruction?

He helplessly shook his head, looking at Si Kong Zun’s proud demeanor, his heart filled with anger.

"General, there’s no need to be angry. The thing you wanted to do today, in fact, you have already accomplished it. Now that Si Kong Zun’s identity has been exposed, even if the Emperor shields him, in the eyes of the citizens of the Phoenix God Empire, he is still the enemy, a person to be guarded against!

As for the Emperor of the Ice Phoenix Clan, I’m afraid his loyalty has already waned. In this election, they already have no chance!"

Ling Xiao’s voice rang in Ji Ning’s mind.

It was direct sound transmission.

"Yes, you are right!"

Ji Ning suddenly became invigorated, with less than a year left until the election, the True Demon Empire wouldn’t find it so easy to do as they please within this time.

As long as next year comes, everything would become clear.

"Sir, may I invite you to leave the city with me for a chat?"

Ji Ning suddenly turned to look at Ling Xiao, this man was indeed not stupid. He knew that Ling Xiao had offended Si Kong Zun and if he continued to stay here, he might be in danger.

So, Ji Ning suggested to have a chat with Ling Xiao, but in reality, he wanted to protect him.

Si Kong Zun dared to act against Ling Xiao, but he wouldn’t dare to strike at him.

"Thank you for your kind intention, General, but I am merely a martial artist who does not wish to get involved in political disputes. I merely spoke a few words of justice, and now I shall take my leave to avoid being hunted down."

Ling Xiao shook his head, not accepting Ji Ning’s offer.

He was thinking further ahead than Ji Ning.

If he were to leave with Ji Ning, others might believe he was Ji Ning’s underling, falling into a trap designed by Ji Ning.

A general who is so calculating is probably not liked by the Royal Family, and by then, Ji Ning might be in even more danger.

What kind of general is least threatening?

One who is single-minded, without cunning, and straightforward!

And Ji Ning was such a person; there was no need for him to be misunderstood.

Having said that, Ling Xiao prepared to leave.

But behind him, Marvellous Hand Heavenly Lord Sun Shang sneered, "This is Phoenix God College. Do you think you can cause trouble here and simply leave without consequence?"

Si Kong Zun couldn’t make a move, but Sun Shang could.

"You really are a faithful lapdog of the True Demon Empire!"

Ling Xiao couldn’t help but sneer sarcastically, "The Sacred Emperor treated you well, yet you betrayed him. Everyone at Phoenix God College, be careful when using this kind of dog that will turn and bite its master—you never know when he might bite back!"

"You! Such a sharp-tongued brat, if I don’t kill you today, my position as the Dean of Divine Phoenix Medical College would be disgraced!"

Sun Shang was trembling with anger.

"Do you think you could stop me if I want to leave?"

Ling Xiao sneered coldly. When it came to Body Movement Technique, not to look down on Sun Shang, but besides a few individuals present, really none were his match.

He left a fading afterimage as he broke through the air, and in the blink of an eye, he had already vanished beyond the horizon.

Sun Shang hadn’t even managed to take a step.

"What an astonishing Body Movement Technique, who exactly is this person?"

"Judging by his voice, he seems to be in his forties or fifties."

"A voice can be disguised, you know."

"Heh heh, Phoenix God College has made an enemy of such a person, I’m afraid they won’t have peace in the future."

In the square, the crowd was abuzz with conversation.

On the high platform, both the Peacock Princess and Thunderhawk Princess exchanged looks, seeing the shock in each other’s eyes.

They thought their speed was already very fast.

But compared to this person, it was like minor magic meeting great witchcraft.
