Chen Kyushu smiled contemptuously before leaving the place.
“Chen Kyushu, stop right there!”
“We haven’t finished yet?”
“Get back here!”
The Sword Saint shouted after them, but Chen Kyushu ignored them and left the place without looking back.
“This beast!”
“How dare you be so rude to us?”
“How could we have been blind to elect him as the Martial God Hall’s Hall Master in the first place!”
“Let that Chu Tianfan be the Hall Master, he’s even better than him!”
The Fist Emperor slammed his fist into the wall behind him in anger, and spider web-like cracks instantly radiated out.
Right now, the Fist Emperor was simply regretting it.
Of course, equally remorseful was the Sword Saint.
The War God sighed, “They are, unbridled.”
“After all, Chu Tianfan is already dead.”
“The only person in this world who could threaten them has also been forced to die by us.”
“With no more constraints on power and no more limits on his strength, what do you think, what else would he have to fear?”
“In his eyes, I reckon you and I are already pigs and dogs on the chopping block, waiting to be slaughtered.”
Ye Qingtian’s few words made the Fist Emperor and Sword Saint speechless, their faces slightly ugly.
“You guys, could it be that what Chu Tianfan said is all true?” The Fist Emperor did not hold back and eventually asked another question.
No one answered.
Both the War God and the Sword Saint were silent.
They had no face to answer.
After all, back when Ye Fan was being accused by a thousand people, the three of them, too, had stood against Ye Fan and had even made a move to injure him.
Once it was confirmed that Ye Fan’s words were true, it would undoubtedly mean that the three of them had done something extremely stupid and foolish.
In this world, the most difficult thing for people to do is to deny themselves and admit their own stupidity.
Although there were many signs that something was wrong with the Dragon Gate plan.
However, even if there was only a faint possibility left, the Sword Sage and the others all hoped that what Ye Fan said, was wrong.
The War God had already left.
Here, only the Sword Saint and the Fist Emperor were left.
“Sword Saint, tell me, can what Chu Tianfan said back then be true?” The Fist Emperor asked once more.
The Sword Saint did not answer, but merely shook his head and lamented, “Ai… We have fought with Chu Tianfan for so many years, we can’t, every time we are we are wrong, right?”
The Sword Saint remembered many things.
Thinking of back then, the battle of the rainforest, they felt that Ye Fan was tyrannical, unkind, unethical and unfeeling, but as a result, Ye Fan donated a large amount of Yuanling fruits to the country for free.
They also recalled that when Ye Fan killed the Chu Sect, they, the Martial God Hall, fell on their sword and kept Ye Fan out of the country. But as a result, Chu Yuan conquered the world, and if it wasn’t for Chu Tianfan’s words, several of them, would have died under the iron hooves of the Chu Sect.
And now, Ye Fan was once again, on the opposite side of the world.
And the Sword Saint and the others still did not choose to trust Ye Fan.
If they were wrong again this time, the Sword Saints would probably really have no face, to face the world.
Therefore, both the Fist Emperor and the Sword Saint were naturally hoping and praying in their hearts that what Ye Fan said, was not true.
However, how could the things of this world be shifted by the will of man?
A few days later, the Dragon Gate Project, once again, opened.
The fourth group of powerful people had arrived at the foot of Yan Mountain.
The Fist Emperor, the Sword Saint and Ye Qingtian, however, were still in the Great Hall and did not appear at the scene of the Dragon Gate Project.
The three of them were talking in the middle of the room, as if they were discussing something.
At this time, someone walked in.
“By order of Hall Master Chen, we invite the three old pillar states, to enter the Dragon Gate!”
Zhao Zhenlu led a few of his men and came to invite Ye Qingtian and the others out.
“Get lost!”
“We are free to decide whether or not to enter the Dragon Sect, we don’t need to be invited by him!” The Fist King cursed, not giving Zhao Zhenru and the others the benefit of the doubt at all.
Zhao Zhenlu, however, smiled and said, “Old Pillar Kingdom, if you have something to say, go and speak to Hall Master Chen. I’m just a subordinate conveying orders, why do you guys have to make things difficult for me?”
Zhao Zhenlu smiled bitterly.
The Fist King was about to curse, but he was stopped by the God of War.
“Well, he’s right, they’re just following orders, it’s just a waste of words to talk to him any more,”
“Let’s go.”
“There are some things that we need to say to our fellow countrymen, in person.”
Ye Qingtian said in a deep voice, and as if he had made some major decision, he turned around, ready to head to the top of Yan Mountain.
“Old Ye, have you really thought it through?”
“If you do that, then it would be like tearing your face off from them!”
“I’m worried…” The Sword Saint clearly still had concerns.
However, Ye Qingtian waved his hand calmly, “There’s nothing to worry about, that Chen Jiuzhou may be bold, in front of so many people, would he still dare to kill me?”
“I, Ye Qingtian, have been in Yanxia for so many years, I dare not say anything else, but I still have some hearts.”
“If Chen Kyushu dares to kill me, then he will lose the hearts of the people, and it will be difficult for him to implement the Dragon Sect plan in the future.”
Ye Qingtian spoke indifferently, calmly, unable to see any panic or worry at all.
“That’s true, but Old Ye, what if?”
“You are the backbone of our Yanxia, the ballast stone, you can’t take any chances.”
“Or else, let me say this, let me say it.” The Sword Saint was still uneasy.
“You can’t either, let me say it!” The Fist King scrambled again.
Ye Qingtian smiled, “Don’t even grab it, it’s most appropriate for me to say this. I, Ye Qingtian, have been the Guardian God of Yanxia for so many years, and everyone still believes in my words. It’s not that I’m bragging, the weight of the two of you, combined, may not be as great as the weight of my words, Ye Qingtian.”
“But…”
“There’s no more buts, is there any other way for you guys to do it?” Ye Qingtian interrupted them.
The Sword Saint and Fist Emperor both opened their mouths, as if they wanted to say something else, but the words that had reached their mouths were eventually swallowed.
Just like this, the three of them walked out of the Martial God Hall hall and arrived high up on Mount Yan.
“Here we go!”
“It’s the God of War.”
“The God of War is coming!”
Sure enough, seeing Ye Qingtian and the others, a chorus of applause came from the martial practitioners of Yanxia on the mountain.
Although Ye Qingtian was no longer the Martial God Hall’s Hall Master, his many years of prestige made him still the spiritual leader in the hearts of Yanxia’s sons and daughters.
“Coming, huh?”
“I thought that you would have to let me personally invite you over.”
Seeing Ye Qingtian and the others, Chen Kyushu smiled coldly.
“Well, let’s cut the crap.”
“The Dragon Gate has opened.”
“The fourth group is ready to enter immediately.”
“You three, as Pillar States of Yanxia, will take the lead and go in first.”
Chen Kyushu urged.
Ye Qingtian glanced at him and said with a smile, “There is no need to rush. Before that, let me say a few words to you all. What if, with this trip, we can’t come back.”
“Feel free.” Chen Kyushu said without a care in the world.
Yes, right now, in the whole of Yanxia, the only thing that made Chen Kyushu care was only his own teacher, Queen Feng.
As for these three old things, before when Ye Fan was still alive, Chen Kyushu could still use their reputation to deal with Ye Fan and promote the Dragon Sect plan.
Now that Ye Fan was dead, the land of Yanxia was no longer shackled to him.
Therefore, these three old things were no longer of much value to him.
A useless person or thing, that was waste.
Yes, in Chen Kyushu’s eyes, these three old things were no longer different from waste.
If they wanted to speak, let them speak.
They would soon be sent into the Dragon Gate anyway.
Just like that, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Ye Qingtian walked to a high place, his cloudy gaze, looking at this heaven and earth beneath his feet, and also at this group of kind and lovely compatriots in front of him.
“All of you present should recognise me. I am Ye Qingtian, and thanks to your love, I have been appointed as the God of War and become the head of the six pillar states of Yanxia.”
