Chapter 1276

Gu Chen's outstretched hand stopped. Sure enough, trouble still came knocking.

Xing Daoist was displeased when he heard the suggestion of the higher-ups of the Ministry of Intelligence.

"I have the freedom to appoint whoever I want. Since when did others have the right to criticize me?"

The higher-up of the Ministry of Intelligence suddenly looked awkward. "The will of the main army is the will of the entire Xing County, so naturally, no one can interfere with your decision. But this appointment has caused quite a stir. If we ignore it, the Emperor of the Hundred Realms will inevitably harbor resentment, and it will inevitably cause trouble for the rule of Xing County. "

"Therefore, I suggest that although you don't have to pay attention to Emperor Might, you should still meet him to show your generosity and kindness."

The other higher-ups of Xing County in the hall immediately echoed. "We think so too."

Gu Chen glanced at the few Heavenly Law generals and saw a hint of mockery and expectation in their eyes.

In contrast, Kong Sheng and the higher-ups of the Ministry of Intelligence looked very professional and did not seem to be hostile to him.

As for Xing Daoist, he did not even have a head, and Gu Chen could not tell what he was thinking.

Gu Chen was secretly analyzing who was the enemy that he needed to be wary of in the first place, and Xing Daoist's voice became louder at that moment.

"Today is the big day Gu Chen takes over as the Heavenly Law general. How can we let Emperor Might cause trouble here? His son deserved to die because he was not as good as him, and he came here to complain. What a disgrace! "

"There is no need to talk to me anymore. Just drive him away!"

Xing Daoist unexpectedly sided with Gu Chen, and even ignored the suggestions of the higher-ups of the departments.

This surprised Gu Chen, and the higher-ups of the departments were even more surprised.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is not a good idea. The Third Realm is adjacent to Lin County, and its strategic position is very important. If Emperor Might holds a grudge because of this..."

The higher-up of the Ministry of Intelligence said with concern.

"Do you mean that Emperor Might would dare to rebel?" Xing Daoist sneered and said disdainfully.

"Although the possibility is not high, we cannot be careless. After all, Lin County has been trying to infiltrate our territory for years."

All the higher-ups tried their best to persuade Xing Wuji, but Xing Wuji put on a look of protecting Gu Chen until the end, causing the atmosphere in the hall to fall into a deadlock.

Gu Chen wasn't sure if Dao Lord Xing was protecting him purely to buy his heart, or if he had other intentions, but he knew that he had no choice but to speak up.

After all, this matter had arisen because of him. Although Dao Lord Xing could suppress this matter with his absolute authority, there would still be countless troubles that would come knocking on his door in the future.

Since that was the case, it was best to settle it today!

"Your Highness, this happened because of me. Let me settle it."

Gu Chen imitated the tone of the crowd and spoke. As soon as he spoke, the hall fell silent.

"Gu Chen, Emperor Might is here to cause you trouble. Are you sure you want to see him?" Dao Lord Xing confirmed.

"I am indebted to His Majesty for bestowing upon me the position of Tian Fa's Great General. Since there are people who are dissatisfied with this, I should stand up and prove myself."

"This is the only way to shut up all those who are dissatisfied!"

As Gu Chen spoke, he glanced at a few of the Tian Fa Great Generals. His body was as straight as a pine tree, showing his great confidence.

"You're right. In that case, let Emperor Might come to the hall," Dao Lord Xing said casually.

After a while, a middle-aged man with a resolute face, dressed in a python dragon robe, stepped into the Heavenly Punishment Hall.

He was simply too burly. His muscles were as exaggerated as granite, and he had four strong arms.

Gu Chen had to admit that his bloodline was powerful. That Xiong Jun looked too much like Emperor Might in front of him.

"Your subordinate, Xiong Kui, greets Your Highness!"

After Emperor Might entered, he first solemnly bowed to Dao Lord Xing, then stood up, looked around, and soon fixed his eyes on Gu Chen.

A beast-like aura soon erupted from his body, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent as he stared at Gu Chen.

Gu Chen's face was expressionless, as if he was invisible.

"The Third Realm is a long way from the Xing Realm. What brings you here, Emperor Might?" Dao Lord Xing said indifferently, pretending not to know why he was here.

"Reporting to the commander, this subordinate is here for him!"

Emperor Might was obviously not a man who knew how to read people's expressions, and he did not have any tricks up his sleeves, so he went straight to the point.

"Gu Chen of the Ninth Realm is cruel and heartless, and he slaughtered all the geniuses of the Hundred Realms who participated in the trial in Xing County. Not only did he not receive any punishment for this, but he has also been conferred the title of Tian Fa Great General. The Hundred Realms are not satisfied!"

"Therefore, your subordinate has come here on behalf of the Hundred Realms Emperors, hoping that Your Highness can give up on this idea and hand this man over to us for trial!"

Emperor Might spoke vehemently, his tone agitated, and as he spoke, he took a few steps forward and handed over a letter of remonstrance signed by the Hundred Realms Emperors!

Dao Lord Xing took the letter of remonstrance indifferently, opened it casually, and read it without any emotion in his tone. "Medusa, Jiu You Huang … and even the Fang family have joined forces to protest this matter?"

"This man killed my son, and the Hundred Realms Emperors have also suffered the pain of losing their loved ones. Your Highness, please uphold justice for us!"

Emperor Might said angrily.

Gu Chen looked at Emperor Might, who had lost his son, and felt inexplicably nauseous.

The geniuses of the Hundred Realms had treated the Ninth Realm as their hunting ground, and they had unscrupulously slaughtered a large number of civilians of the Ninth Realm. Among them, how many had lost their families, children, and parents?

These Emperors had lost their loved ones, and so they had come angrily to condemn them, but they had never thought about what they had done.

Gu Chen would not forget Emperor Huang, who had died in the Battle of the Milky Way. The mighty army deserved to die, and if he could do it all over again, he would kill even more decisively!

"I understand what you mean, and I deeply sympathize with what happened to your loved ones. But the trial of the Ninth Realm has been clear from the beginning that it is risky, and they can only blame themselves for not being strong enough to die in the trial. Gu Chen is not at fault. "

Xing Daolord first comforted Emperor Might, but what he said next was simply unbearable.

He directly said that Gu Chen was not at fault, and this made Emperor Might's face turn red.

"Your Highness, did my son die in vain? I heard that Xing County lost an army in the Ninth Realm, and it was also this man's doing. Could it be that as long as he is willing to surrender, the previous losses will be forgiven? "

"The Xing Daolord I know should not be like this!"

Emperor Might was obviously a little simple-minded, and he actually accused Xing Daolord in public.

"Emperor Might, don't be rude!"

The higher-ups of the various departments immediately reprimanded him, and Xing Daolord waved his hand.

"Emperor Might's character has always been like this. It is normal for him to become irrational because of the loss of his son, and I will not argue with him."

Xing Daolord said indifferently, and then changed the subject. "But Emperor Might, it is impossible for me to hand over Gu Chen, and my appointment will not be changed by anyone."

"Go. If you continue to pester me, I will not be polite."

Xing Daolord tore up the remonstrations of the Hundred Emperors on the spot, showing that he was unquestionable!
