Chapter 841: The New Grand Master
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
Ji Zhantian had stated his pieces, but Emperor of Heaven Reverse fell into silence. The city was full of people and yet no one made any sound. Some were shivering. There was no telling whether they were too nervous or too frightened.
For Ji Mengtian, Yang Xuan and Lu Suan, they waited with excited anticipation. Ji Zhantian could communicate with Emperor of Heaven Reverse? The latter was a real immortal. One thought for such an immortal could be the end of Lu Li. If Emperor of Heaven Reverse really made a move, even the Asmodian Lord would be killed more than easily.
Lu Li knelt in silence. He did not say anything to defend himself. He believed that Emperor of Heaven Reverse was wise enough to listen to a statement from more than one side of the parties.
He was right!
After a moment, that old voice was heard again, “Lu Li, what do you have to say for yourself?”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement was stunned to hear the words. Jiang Tianshun and Great Grandfather Three looked at each other in delight. How come Emperor of Heaven Reverse had asked this question? It seemed like he was not that unfamiliar with Lu Li.
On second thoughts, they believed that was a reason. The first time Lu Li and Jiang Qiling came to the Demon-slaying City, the statue of Emperor of Heaven Reverse glowed. Jiang Qiling was even given divine energy.
Later on, in the small battlefield, Lu Li had imprisoned and tortured Lu Suan, Ji Mengyao and some others. When Deputy Master was about to execute Lu Li, the statue of Emperor of Heaven Reverse glowed again. For that reason, Xing Mu came and saved Lu Li.
As a matter of fact, many people were speculating that… it was the instruction that Emperor of Heaven Reverse had given to Xing Mu that saved Lu Li.
Hearing Emperor of Heaven Reverse asking him the question, Lu Li felt a spread of warmth in his heart. His animal tooth pendant was a legacy of Emperor of Heaven Reverse. In other words, his cultivation and growth benefited from Emperor of Heaven Reverse’s legacy. Giving it some thoughts, Lu Li looked up into those eyes, bowed and replied, “I have a clear conscience!”
“Good!”
This time, it did not take long for Emperor of Heaven Reverse’s voice to be heard, “I like this—clear conscience. Lu Li, from today on, you will be the Grand Master of the Demon-slaying Hall. You are the problem with the crisis of the four alien races, so you must be the solution. If you cannot be, then kill yourself to let the world know that you are sorry. In the future, when you make a great achievement, come to the Infinitude Mountain and look for me. I will take you in as my protégé!”
“Buzzing~”
As the words were said, the pair of eyes collapsed back into scripts which fell back into the sacred book. The statue of Emperor of Heaven Reverse returned to normal.
“What~”
For a moment, the city was in a strange state of silence. Then, the entire city was taken over by a loud noise. Emperor of Heaven Reverse appointed Lu Li as the Grand Master? In other words, Emperor of Heaven Reverse sided with Lu Li?
“But, how, what…”
Ji Zhantian could not believe this. His face was colorless like snow. It was a result that he could not accept.
He was the Grand Master of the Demon-slaying Hall, the most devoted worshiper of Emperor of Heaven Reverse. He was the spokesman for Emperor of Heaven Reverse in the Heaven Reverse Universe. How could Emperor of Heaven Reverse help Lu Li instead of him?
“No!”
Lu Suan, Ji Mengtian, Yang Xuan, Die Feiyu and Sha the Terror were depressed. This was a heavy blow for him. Not only did Emperor of Heaven Reverse supported Lu Li, he even said that he could accept Lu Li as his protégé in the future when Lu Li was accomplished.
They were talented warriors themselves!
How could there be such a huge gap?
Each and every one of those young people were proud and blessed warriors. To them, Lu Li was nothing, other than a country bumpkin. But the same country bumpkin had shamed them time and time again. At the moment, he was better than all of them. In addition, he had the ultimate power…
“Thank you, master!”
Lu Li bowed to his waist. The moment he learned that the animal tooth pendant was from Emperor of Heaven Reverse, Lu Li had already regarded him as his teacher.
“The Infinitude Mountain!”
Standing up slowly, Lu Li raised his head to the sky. He murmured to himself confidently, “Master, please be patient. One day, I will go to the Infinitude Mountain in the Divinity to look for you.”
“Ji Zhantian!”
After a moment, Lu Li turned to him with a grin, “What else have you got? Lay them on me. From today on, I, Lu Li, am the Grand Master of the Demon-slaying Hall. But you will be a traitor of the human race. You will not be buried with your ancestors after your death. As a matter of fact… from today on, there will be no more Ji Family!”
“How? How can it be?”
Ji Zhantian was battered out of his senses. His eyes were empty as he murmured nervously. His facial expressions were twisted. The Originator Artifact in his hand started to glow. All of a sudden, he clamored frenziedly, “Lu Li, you want to kill me? Then try!”
“Hmm~”
Lu Li waved his hand. Feather Wind was moving again. Silver dragons surrounded Ji Zhantian and attacked him. He started to howl in pain.
“Buzzing, buzzing, buzzing~”
The Wicked Bead glowed. Lu Renhuang and the others all came out. At the same time, Lu Li shouted to Patriarch of Law Enforcement, “I now give you an order as the Grand Master of the Demon-slaying Hall. Attack Ji Zhantian and execute this bastard!”
Jiang Tianshun and Great Grandfather Three responded at once. Some other patriarchs that were of a neutral position came as well. But Patriarch of Law Enforcement was hesitating, “Lu Li… Grand Master, can we let Ji Zhantian redeem himself by good service? After all, Semi-God Realm warriors cannot come easily. And we are faced with the four alien races now!”
“No!”
With absolute certainty, Lu Li yelled, “I will deal with the four alien races. I will not be able to have a peaceful mind to face them for as long as this bastard is still alive. If you recognize me as the Grand Master, do it now.”
“Move!”
Some patriarchs shouted. Emperor of Heaven Reverse had appointed Lu Li as the Grand Master in person. Those patriarchs could not afford to have a second opinion. Even Emperor of Heaven Reverse stated that he could accept Lu Li as his protégé. Clearly, there was a promising future awaiting them to be on Lu Li’s side.
“Let’s do it~”
Patriarch of Law Enforcement said no more. Lu Li had made up his mind. Nobody could save Ji Zhantian today.
The dozens of patriarchs went to different directions to attack at Ji Zhantian while Lu Li still surrounded him with the silver dragons. In this way, the patriarchs could make their moves easily and aim clearly at Ji Zhantian.
“Master Yang, what do we do?”
In a yard, Che the Terror and Granny Butterfly looked at Yang Bucheng. Things were not optimistic for Ji Zhantian. His life was going to be over soon. It would be their turn to face death after Ji Zhantian dropped dead if they did not take any actions.
“Do what?”
Yang Bucheng forced a smile and said, “Is there anything we can do? Fate will decide it. Do you still have the courage to fight? If so, then, Li Shang is our example. The best we can do now is to beg for Lu Li to let our families live. As for you and me, this is the end for our lives.”
“Alas..”
Granny Butterfly sighed. At that moment, she seemed to be years older. Her back was hunched. With regret, she stated, “We should not have let him live years ago. We should have killed him no matter how angry Xing Mu would be. We have cherished a snake in our bosom. How fast have Lu Li developed…”
Che the Terror was grieved. There was no hatred between the Yaksha Race and Lu Li. But they had been implicated by the Ji Family. Che the Terror was not even sure that he could save the Yaksha Race.
But was there anything else Che the Terror could do? Apart from seeking his own doom and enraging Lu Li, nothing else could come out of him going and fighting.
“Boom!”
The time for two incense sticks to burn passed. A body fell from the sky, smashing down a castle.
Lu Renhuang stabbed Ji Zhantian with his spear in the latter’s chest. Blood spilled out. Ji Zhantian’s eyes were still wide open. He had died with everlasting remorse.
Deputy Master Ji Zhantian, died!
