Chapter 790: Tianji Pavilion's Surrender
Lu Chen said at this time: "Let the messenger of Tianji Pavilion come in."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After Bai Qingqing finished speaking, she turned around and left the yard. Seeing that Bai Qingqing had left, Ji Qiuyu also quickened her pace and left the yard.
Not long after, Bai Qingqing and several people wearing gray yin-yang patterned Taoist robes entered the yard.
After everyone entered the yard, they immediately saluted to Lu Chen and said: "The criminals of Tianji Pavilion pay their respects to Your Majesty!"
Lu Chen glanced at these people and found that they were all elders of Tianji Pavilion.
Seeing so many elders, Lu Chen chuckled and said, "Are all the elders of your Tianji Pavilion here?"
"You came to me on your own initiative, aren't you afraid that I will catch you all in one fell swoop?"
Hearing this, Shao Yuanjia, the chief elder of Tianji Pavilion, immediately stood up and said, "We are guilty people. If Your Majesty wants to get rid of us and give justice to the world, we have nothing to say."
"But..."
Speaking of this, Shao Yuanjia paused for a moment, and then continued, "But, the sinner has something to say, and I hope Your Majesty can listen to the sinner's words."
Lu Chen's eyes returned to the map on the stone table, and he said expressionlessly, "Go ahead."
Seeing that Lu Chen did not attack them immediately, Shao Yuanjia was happy and hopeful, so he immediately said, "The release of the demon was all decided by Gongye Liangpeng alone. We opposed it at the beginning, but Gongye Liangpeng was arbitrary. OK, plus he has won over all the major forces in Ziyang World, we are powerless and can't stop him. "
Lu Chen said: "Oh? You want to put all the blame on the Pavilion Master of your Tianji Pavilion?"
"If I guess correctly, your Pavilion Master should have escaped from Ziyang World, right?"
Shao Yuanjia said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, it is our fault, we will never shirk it. As a member of Ziyang World, we failed to stop Gongye Liangpeng, and we are still unforgivable."
"And it was not until Gongye Liangpeng left that we found out that Gongye Liangpeng was actually a demon envoy. We have followed a demon envoy for so many years and helped the evil. No matter how your Majesty treats us, we have no regrets. "
"It's just that we really don't dare to bear the bad reputation of releasing the demon."
Hearing Shao Yuanjia's words, Lu Chen raised his head and glanced at Shao Yuanjia again.
[Name: Shao Yuanjia]
[Identity: Tianji Pavilion Elder, Tianji Pavilion Master Candidate. 】
[Strength: Ninth Layer of Yin-Yang Realm]
[Loyalty: 96]
Shao Yuanjia has a loyalty of more than ninety to him, and it seems that he really wants to be loyal to him.
Lu Chen said: "Gongye Liangpeng ran away, and you Tianji Pavilion don't bear the bad reputation. Do you want me to bear the bad reputation?"
As soon as the voice fell, a pressure was released from Lu Chen's body. In an instant, Shao Yuanjia and the other elders of Tianji Pavilion all knelt on the ground.
A strong pressure pressed on them, making it difficult for them to even breathe.
Shao Yuanjia gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Your Majesty, it is our responsibility to misjudge people. We are willing to accept any punishment, but Gongye Liangpeng is powerful. Even if we tried to stop him at the beginning, we were powerless."
Lu Chen said lightly: "Powerless? You didn't make any effort, so of course you were powerless."
"If you had tried your best to stop Gongye Liangpeng from releasing the demon, you would not have come to ask me today, and I would not hold you responsible."
Hearing Lu Chen's words, Shao Yuanjia and others fell silent.
They did think it was inappropriate to release the demons to fight against the invaders from other worlds, but the Tianji Pavilion has always been a one-man show for Gongye Liangpeng. Even if they verbally opposed it, they did not dare to take any actual action.
Lu Chen removed the pressure at this time, and Shao Yuanjia and others instantly felt extremely relaxed, breathing heavily.
Lu Chen continued to look at the map on the stone table and said: "I can indeed absolve some of you Tianji Pavilion of guilt with just one sentence, but why should I do this?"
Hearing this, Shao Yuanjia instantly understood what Lu Chen meant, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is in his prime, and he will definitely not stop at the Ziyang World. If Your Majesty wants to attack other worlds in the future, our Tianji Pavilion can help Your Majesty deduce the strength and plans of enemies in other worlds."
Lu Chen thought about it. If these people in the Tianji Pavilion could deduce the specific situation of other worlds, then he could spend less time collecting intelligence.
For example, when attacking the Ziyang World, collecting intelligence took up too much time. As a result, after they entered the Ziyang World, they only killed a demon, and the Ziyang World almost fell into his hands.
If he could judge the overall strength of a world earlier, he could send out troops earlier, capture that world earlier, and absorb the world's luck earlier.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen said: "Your calculation ability doesn't seem to be very good. You don't even know that your Pavilion Master is a demon envoy. Even if I save you, I'm afraid you may not be able to play a role."
This...
Hearing Lu Chen's words, Shao Yuanjia and others were stunned. For this point, they really had no way to refute Lu Chen.
After a while, Shao Yuanjia explained: "Your Majesty, cultivators with strong deduction ability can block the secrets of heaven. Gongye Liangpeng is stronger than all of us combined. It is normal that we can't deduce that he is a demon envoy."
Lu Chen said: "Oh? Really? Then I can't block the secrets of heaven. You deduce me and see what I will do next."
"If you can figure it out, you've passed."
After Lu Chen finished speaking, the elders of the Tianji Pavilion looked at each other, as if they were communicating something with their eyes.
Seeing that they did not respond immediately, Lu Chen said, "What? You don't have the ability?"
Shao Yuanjia said, "To be honest with you, Your Majesty, we have worked together to deduce everything about Your Majesty when we came to Black Moon City, but Your Majesty is a man with great luck and is protected by the origin of the universe, so we can't deduce everything about Your Majesty."
Lu Chen snorted and laughed and said, "You are really a group of useless people."
Hearing Lu Chen's words, everyone in the Tianji Pavilion felt extremely sad. It seemed that they were doomed.
When they worked together in the Tianji Pavilion to deduce the origin of Emperor Xia, they suffered a serious backlash. At that time, they had already guessed their fate, so they planned to fight to the death and took the initiative to come to Black Moon City to be loyal to Emperor Xia.
Now it seems that they have failed.
Just when everyone thought that Emperor Xia was going to get rid of them, Lu Chen said calmly: "I can give you another chance. You can figure out the origin of Nangong Qingya, the owner of the Blood Rainbow Square, and what she plans to do next."
"If you can't even figure this out, then you can go back and wait for death."
As soon as these words came out, the elders of the Tianji Pavilion surrounded the city as if they had grabbed a life-saving straw.
The next moment, a Yin-Yang magic circle appeared under their feet. (End of this chapter)
