181 Snow Star Ascends the Throne
Early the next morning, Lin Hanye summoned the Ice Dragon and took A Yin, Liu Erlong, Huang Yueyao, Hu Yanzhen, Niu Gai, Yang Wushuang, Tai Kun and others to Tiandou City to attend Xue Xing's coronation ceremony.
By the time they arrived, quite a few people had already arrived at the Tiandou Palace.
Among them, people from the Spirit Hall, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, and the Haotian Sect arrived early.
However, the only person who came to the Spirit Hall was the Platinum Bishop Sack from the Spirit Temple of Tiandou City.
Ning Fengzhi and Jian Dou Luo came from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.
As for the Haotian Sect, it is the Sect Master Tang Wei and several people from the Min clan. However, unlike in the past when they were one of the top three sects and were flattered and fawned upon by the world, because the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect was suspected of murdering Lin Hanye's father, and Gu Rong assassinated the Emperor Xue Ye of the Tiandou Empire, people felt that they had offended the Soul Master Guild and the Tiandou Royal Family.
It can be said that even dogs would abandon it when they see it.
Afraid of causing trouble.
No one dared to approach.
Compared to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, the Haotian Sect is much better. Although Tang Chen lost the battle with Lin Hanye who had equal soul power, he fought a tie with the chief priest of the Spirit Hall.
As long as Tang Chen is here, the Haotian Sect will remain prosperous.
It was only after seeing Niu Gao, Yang Wushuang, Tai Kun and Lin Hanye together that Haotian Sect leader Tang Wei's face instantly turned bad, but he did not lose his temper because Lin Hanye was there.
"President Lin!"
"President Lin, you are here!"
"Your Majesty the Ice Emperor!"
"."
Seeing Lin Hanye, a warrior who was as strong as Peerless Fighter, coming, everyone present, led by Xue Xing, came forward to greet him.
Among them, the Platinum Bishop Sack of the Spirit Hall was very flattering because he knew the relationship between Lin Hanye and his eight priests.
Ning Fengzhi was also at the mercy of others, so even though she had a lot of resentment and hatred in her heart, she didn't dare to show it. Instead, she went up to greet Lin Hanye with the others, as if nothing had happened.
As for Tang Wei, he simply snorted coldly at Niu Gao, Yang Wushuang and Tai Kun who came with Lin Hanye, and said nothing.
A moment later, under Xue Xing's arrangement, Lin Hanye sat on the right side closest to the emperor's throne. Opposite him sat Tang Wei. Niu Gui, Yang Wushuang and Tai Kun, who were from the affiliated sect of Haotian Sect, stood behind Tang Wei. Just because Tang Wei did not give them a good look, the three of them were frowning. Bai He kept doing ideological work on the side, but it could be seen that they were not in a good mood.
Sitting below Lin Hanye were Ning Fengzhi and Jian Dou Luo.
"President Lin, thank you very much for this. My Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect owes you a huge favor."
Even though Ning Fengzhi wanted to eat Lin Hanye's flesh and sleep on his skin, for the sake of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's image, he still thanked Lin Hanye as if nothing had happened.
"Feng Zhi is right. If not, I'm afraid that Old Bone and my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect would be in real danger."
Jian Dou Luo also thanked him.
The difference is that Jian Dou Luo's thanks came from the heart.
Apparently, the Ning family father and son did not tell others that they wanted to sacrifice the ancient banyan tree to save the sect.
Otherwise, according to Jian Dou Luo's temper, even if he would not betray the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, he would be completely disappointed with the Ning father and son, thus causing the entire Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect to become disloyal and unethical.
As for the matter of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect paying compensation to Lin Hanye, there was even less talk about it, because Lin Hanye had made it known in advance that if anyone other than them father and son knew about this, the agreement would be invalid.
And Kendou Luo is a person who cannot tolerate any grain of sand in his eyes. He will definitely show it after knowing it, which is no different from making the agreement invalid.
Therefore, Jian Dou Luo was very grateful to Lin Hanye for his suggestion of "first let Gu Rong plead guilty, take all the blame, admit that he had nothing to do with the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, and then release Gu Rong secretly."
Because this not only saved the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, but also did not harm his old partner. It was the only way to have the best of both worlds.
"You two are too polite. Sect Master Ning and I are as close as brothers. We should help each other."
Lin Hanye smiled.
Seeing Lin Hanye who was even more hypocritical than him, Ning Fengzhi was so angry that she was shaking all over. She felt a lump in her throat and was extremely uncomfortable, but she still forced a smile on her face.
A moment later, Xue Xing's coronation ceremony began.
After a complicated and extremely boring ceremony, in front of everyone, Xue Xing put on the crown and officially ascended the throne of the emperor of the Tiandou Empire.
"Thank you all for attending my coronation ceremony. I am honored. However, the late emperor's body is still warm. As his younger brother, I must give an explanation to my brother in the underworld. Someone, bring me Gu Rong, the criminal who murdered the late emperor."
This was the first sentence Xue Xing said after ascending the throne.
As soon as these words came out, all the guests present became serious and looked towards the palace hall.
With the sound of iron chains dragging on the ground, four royal knights pushed up the ancient banyan tree, which was tied up with chains all over its body.
"It turned out to be His Majesty Xue Ye who was killed by Gu Dou Luo!"
"It seems that the rumors are true, but is the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect safe and sound? And it even seems to have a close relationship with the Soul Master Guild?"
"."
People discussed it privately and expressed their own opinions.
Standing next to Xue Xing, Dugu Bo, who had been responsible for protecting him all this time, looked at Lin Hanye.
Lin Hanye nodded.
After getting his permission, Dugu Bo symbolically looked at Xue Xing. Xue Xing smiled and said to Dugu Bo: "Mr. Dugu, please start."
Dugu Bo nodded, looked at Gu Rong and asked sharply: "Gu Rong, the late emperor treated you and the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect well when he was alive, why did you want to kill His Majesty?"
Although everyone had expected this, they still couldn't help but be shocked when they heard this.
My goodness, this is a direct conviction by opening the coffin.
Gu Rong took a look at Ning Fengzhi and Jian Dou Luo, and quickly came up with a plan in his mind. According to Ning Daorong's previous instructions, he admitted it on the spot and sneered, "Not bad, really not bad. If he really treated my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect well, why did he support the Soul Master Guild? For the future of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, I must kill him."
"Master Ning, it's your turn to perform." Lin Hanye's voice rang in Ning Fengzhi's ears.
Ning Fengzhi's face twitched violently, and he stood up with a look of great pain, "Uncle Gu, everyone knows that Chairman Lin, the late emperor and I are as close as brothers, and there is no distinction between you and me, so why are you doing this?"
After these words were spoken, everyone came to their senses. From what the two said, it was indeed Gu Rong who killed Xue Ye, but he did it on his own initiative.
Everything has nothing to do with the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect.
However, some smart people guessed that this ancient banyan tree was abandoned by the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.
Gu Rong said: "Master, please forgive me for my self-willed decision, but even if I have to do it again, I will still do it this way."
Seeing Gu Rong plead guilty, Dugu Bo did not say anything, but looked at Xue Xing. Xue Xing said: "Gu Rong, since you admit to killing the late emperor, then no matter what, my Tiandou Empire can no longer tolerate you."
