Chapter 1180: Alien Clan Leaders Gather
"It's them! It's them who have put our clan into this deadly situation today!"
"Kill them!"
"kill!"
Countless people from the Earth Tribe rushed over madly, trying to kill these troublemakers.
Commander Losang, who led the team, had already collapsed mentally. Perhaps the battle yesterday had already made him collapse. For the sake of the face of the Ziqiwen Dynasty and to command the army, he forced himself to remain calm. Now that the great catastrophe of the Earth Clan has begun, all of them are doomed. How can they remain calm?
In his heart, he had already cursed his own imperial teacher thousands of times.
But at this moment, he could only curse the Earth Clan: "My expedition was jointly discussed by your Earth Clan and our country's Imperial Master. It is your own incompetence that has led to today's disaster..."
"kill!"
"kill!"
A melee ensued.
The golden light surrounded them, and both sides who started the war were completely turned into blood mist.
The Earth Tribe, destroyed!
The sky is like a long river that closes and turns into a drop of water.
This drop of water shattered the soul of the Earth Clan leader, leaving behind a long sigh: The sigh of Tao - the sigh of Heaven.
The six True Image Realm mortals from the Earth Clan who broke through the Zhoutian Killing Formation were also completely wiped out.
The eleven myriad beings of Luo Tian Sect looked at Lin Su on the golden boat from afar, with complicated expressions in their eyes...
On the golden boat, Lin Su issued an order: "General Lu, clean up the battlefield!"
"Yes!"
Fifty thousand elite soldiers leaped out of the warships, landed on the Earth Clan's territory, and cleaned up the battlefield.
Once they reached the ground, the soldiers were all stunned. The attic was intact, and all kinds of rare treasures were intact. Except for the lack of any living creatures, everything else was well preserved.
This formation is truly the best choice for robbing houses...
Bale!
Loading!
An unprecedented harvest has begun...
Lin Su, in a very pretentious manner, rode back on the golden boat. He was intercepted by He Paiyun at the City Lord's Mansion and was flattered by him...
Lin Su sighed: "Although I am not as majestic as Lord He said, I am quite dedicated. I didn't even have dinner last night. Hurry up and make some delicious dishes."
With a table full of delicious food and a pot of Baiyunbian tea, Lin Su and Ji Qianling enjoyed the meal very much.
After having a good meal and a good drink, Lin Su picked up the teacup and asked, "Where's the pig?"
"This girl might be avoiding her mother. As soon as her mother arrived, she disappeared without a trace."
"What's there to avoid? Did she do anything bad?"
"It's possible that she wanted to do something bad..."
The door was flung open.
Eleven people filed in.
It was the leader of Luotian Sect and all the elders.
With eleven people coming in, the spacious room seemed a bit crowded.
Lin Su smiled: "Seniors, please take a seat!"
"Senior?" Luo Tianhui said calmly, "Lin Su, last night, you refused the sect's etiquette on the grounds that you were in the court and it was inconvenient for you to come down to the stage to greet him. Today is a private occasion, shouldn't you greet the sect master and the senior brothers?"
Ji Qianling's heart skipped a beat. Was this going to allow him to formally join the sect?
Originally, Luo Tianzong set a very difficult entry threshold for him, intending to prevent him from entering.
However, now, the sect has undergone some changes, which are facilitating his entry.
Because both my father and the other elders saw his value.
It is obviously more advantageous for such talents to formally enter the Luotian Sect.
Lin Su's smile froze. "Please forgive me for not understanding what you said, Senior. I have never entered your sect's mountain gate, and my name has not been recorded in the "Luo Tian Disciple List". To this day, I am not considered a Luo Tian disciple. Do I need to observe the etiquette of your sect?"
Luo Tianhui rolled his eyes and was about to get angry.
Lin Su is clearly settling scores after the event.
On the day he entered Xiluotian, there were great differences of opinion in the Luotian Sect headquarters. A group of elders headed by Luotian Huizhe were opposed to Lin Su's return to the sect, so they did not enter Lin Su's name into the "Luotian Disciple List" and did not give him an identity card.
This kid has complaints.
As a powerful elder, do I need to apologize to you?
But Master Luo Tian got there first.
He raised his hand slightly and said with a smile: "I have brought your elder token!"
Elder token?
Ji Qianling was surprised.
Lin Su was also surprised...
This token is red gold in color, with four characters on the front: "Luo Tian" vertically and "Elder" horizontally.
The token flipped over, and a red-gold light flickered, which was extremely unique.
There is a number on the back: 101.
There are ninety-nine top elders and three thousand inner sect elders.
His number is one-hundred-one.
What does it mean?
He is the first among the elders in the inner sect, the first person under the sect master and the top elders.
This kind of favor has never been bestowed upon anyone else in the entire Luotian Sect in thousands of years.
No matter which disciple joins the sect, it is impossible for him to become the first elder of the inner sect from the beginning.
"Lin Su, take the card!" Master Luo Tian still smiled.
Lin Su slowly reached out and took the token: "Master, can I dispose of this token myself?"
"What do you mean?" The expressions of the top elders changed slightly.
Lin Su stretched out his hand and handed the token to Ji Qianling: "I want to give this token to Master Ji!" He was referring to Master Ji and no longer called her Senior Sister Ji.
Ji Qianling's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
She is a very special disciple of Luo Tian Sect, but she is only a disciple. Although her status is equal to that of ordinary elders in the inner sect, she is not an elder in legal terms and cannot enjoy the privileges of a true elder.
Luo Tianhui's face darkened: "Lin Su, what do you think the position of a sect elder is? Can you give away things casually?"
"Can't I just give it away casually?" Lin Su turned the token in his hand and returned it to Luo Tianshangren: "Then please take it back, Senior. It is not convenient for me to accept your casual gift."
Master Luo Tian did not take it, but Lin Su also let go, and the token quietly floated in front of Master Luo Tian.
The atmosphere in the room was dead silent.
Master Luo Tian exhaled softly, "You are still holding a grudge against the sect for not accepting you in time, right?"
Lin Su sighed: "Senior, I thought you understood!"
"Know what?"
Lin Su said: "I am the third-rank inspector of the Immortal Dynasty, and I am ordered to inspect the sects of the world. If I were the elder of Luo Tian, how would I exercise my authority? The sects of the world need to ask, when I, Lin Su, am inspecting by order, is it the order of your majesty or the order of Luo Tian!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's heart was moved.
That's indeed the truth.
Luo Tianshang said: "What you said does make sense, however, among the current officials of the Immortal Dynasty, there are also many officials who have the label of a sect attached to them."
"Senior, you are wrong! The label at the beginning is not a label, at best it is just a background. After serving as an official of the Immortal Dynasty, entering a sect again represents a personal inclination. Therefore, as long as I, Lin Su, am still a member of the imperial official system, it is impossible for me to take over the appointment of any sect midway."
Master Luo Tian slowly raised his head and said, "Missed it? Missed it after all?"
His voice was very soft, as soft as a sigh...
Missed it, three words, very meaningful.
When Lin Su first entered Xiluotian, the Luotian Sect could have naturally accepted him into the sect. As long as he was accepted, every step he took thereafter would be marked with the sect's imprint, and his growth would also be the growth of the sect's strength.
However, the Luotian Sect headquarters turned him away.
It's too late to put Luo Tian's mark on him again now.
Lin Su was right about one thing.
The Immortal Dynasty doesn't care much about what label you have at the beginning. In the Immortal Realm world, almost everyone has a sect label. This label only represents your origin, not your ambitions and intentions.
But once you become a court official, you cannot re-label yourself.
That represents your own inclination.
It doesn't matter if ordinary people have some inclinations, but how can a third-rank official who is responsible for the supervision of the Immortal Dynasty have inclinations? Once you have inclinations, your performance of your duties will change, and the world will not accept it.
Lin Su smiled slightly: "Although I cannot become a Luotian disciple, I still have some feelings for Luotian Sect. Do you feel it, Senior?"
"Do you mean……"
"For example, this time I'm advising His Majesty to let Luo Tianzong participate in the Xihe situation."
The whole place was extremely quiet...
Luo Tianzong came to assist Lin Su under the order of His Majesty. His Majesty did not say that this was Lin Su's suggestion.
Now, Lin Su said it himself.
He also said that this was his affection for Luo Tianzong and a favor.
"What benefits will our sect get from participating in the Xihe situation?" Master Luo Tian narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Survival and death!" Lin Su uttered four words.
The faces of everyone in Luo Tian Sect changed.
Survival and death are intermittent!
To the sect, it is an extremely terrifying word.
The implication is that the sect itself deserved to be exterminated, but now it has found a way out of its desperate situation.
"The seniors probably think that I am exaggerating. Please sit down and I will explain everything to you!" Lin Su gently led the way and sat in the main seat. The Luotian masters sat down one by one.
Ji Qianling acted as a maid, pouring tea for her father and the elders.
Lin Su raised his teacup: "I have analyzed it with Master Ji. The Second Prince will never succeed. The sects following him will be liquidated sooner or later. If Your Majesty raises the butcher knife of liquidation, Luotian Sect will bear the brunt! Can you see this, seniors?"
In a word, the teacups in everyone's hands seemed to weigh a thousand pounds.
Originally they didn't have this understanding.
But ever since Ji Qianling told her father about Lin Su's analysis, her father broke out in a cold sweat.
They were all deceived by the illusion of the past.
His Majesty has always been favoring the Second Prince, and the Second Prince's power has been growing, giving everyone the illusion that the Second Prince is only one step away from the Eastern Palace.
But Lin Su broke the matter down, looked at the essence through the phenomenon, and grasped the most critical point.
Your Majesty is absolutely unwilling to let the Second Prince, who has a foreign background, become powerful.
The favors he showed to the second prince were actually just an illusion, with only one purpose, to stabilize the alien race.
With this understanding, they reflected on themselves and broke out in a cold sweat. Luo Tianzong was known as the sect of calculation, but his calculations were only for the Jianghu, and had not really risen to the level of the imperial court...
The future of Luotian Sect became a huge problem.
Lin Su swept his eyes over everyone's faces, and knew what was going on in his mind: "Luo Tianzong has already boarded the pirate ship, and what he has done for the Second Prince over the years is quite radical. To be honest, this is a difficult trick to solve. But who made me and Luo Tianzong still have some feelings for each other? So I took the trouble to find a way out for Luo Tianzong, which is to hand in a letter of allegiance to His Majesty and gain a firm foothold by His Majesty's side from now on."
"A token of allegiance?" Master Luo Tian murmured.
"The so-called pledge of allegiance is to state one's position in an indisputable way! Completely cut ties with the Second Prince's faction and establish a community of shared destiny with your majesty's faction."
"For example, today's Destroying Earth Clan!" There was a slight gleam in Master Luo Tian's eyes.
"That's right!" Lin Su said, "The Earth Clan is one of the thirty-six alien races, and is indirectly the power behind the Second Prince. Who among the sects in the world dares to face the alien races and draw the sword? Only the Luo Tian Sect! After today's battle, congratulations to the Luo Tian Sect for truly standing by your majesty and truly embarking on the bright road of sect development!"
Luo Tianshangren and Luo Tianhuizhe looked at each other...
They both saw some emotions in each other's eyes...
There is relief, excitement, and also some confusion...
The general direction of the sect had unexpectedly made a 180-degree turn.
Is this change really a good thing?
But judging from the current situation, at least it’s not too bad.
The sky suddenly lit up, and a beam of fire shot up into the sky, seeming to burn up half of the sky.
Everyone in the room suddenly looked up, staring at the seemingly endless fire...
With a bang, the door opened and He Paiyun stepped in: "Master Lin, this is the Fire Clan's palace! The Fire Clan leader is here in person!"
Lin Su nodded: "Not only the Fire Palace, but also the Water Palace... Hehe, there is also a stone house. Don't mention it, this stone house has a unique shape."
Beads of sweat oozed from He Paiyun's forehead. "The leaders of the three alien tribes are here in person. They must be here to call for justice for the Earth Tribe. Sir... the storm is about to rise!"
Everyone in the room looked unhappy.
This is the aftermath of annihilating an entire clan.
In the land of Xihe, thirty-six ancient alien tribes live together, and their external label is that they are of the same blood.
Lin Su used the Zhoutian Killing Formation and, with an unparalleled determination, directly wiped out the Earth Clan.
The biggest thunder in history has exploded.
The remaining thirty-five clans will all react.
Only a short while after he returned, the leaders of the three alien races arrived. Even a blind man could see that they were ready to go and call for an explanation.
There are a hundred possibilities as to where this huge storm will develop and what kind of terrible reactions it will trigger.
The most extreme case was that thirty-five ethnic groups were collectively enraged and massacred people in Xihe.
Even though He Paiyun had seen countless storms and waves, he was still frightened by this completely unknown outcome...
Lin Su smiled faintly: "Raising an army to hold them accountable? Who do they think they are?"
"Sir, let's go and greet them together. When interacting with them, it's better not to speak like that. It will not benefit anyone to provoke them without reason." He Paiyun wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"I won't go!"
He Paiyun's eyes bulged, and black lines appeared on his face. You...you're not going? You've stirred up such a commotion, and you're going to jump on the dry shore to watch the show. What should I, Old He, do?
Lin Su added: "Master He, you don't have to go either. Just arrange a fifth-rank official to receive them and ask them to wait in the wing room!"
"Fifth-rank official?" He Paiyun opened his eyes wide.
He wanted to say that these leaders of foreign races were all so arrogant that even if he, the prefect, came to greet them personally, they would put on an attitude of a prince and send a fifth-rank official to receive them?
Lin Su said, "Sixth or seventh rank is fine! They are foreign races, so you should respect them. They are just a sect, and it's good enough to have an official to receive them! And you are still talking nonsense. Who tolerates their bad habits?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in Luotian Sect was moved. Why do I feel that what this kid said... has some hidden meaning?
The aliens are at best a sect, and it is enough to have a sixth or seventh rank official to receive them. Gossiping about other people's affairs is a bad habit that has been cultivated by others.
What you mean is that you are now a third-rank official, and we in the Luotian Sect also need to lower our posture in front of you?
Is this a veiled criticism?
He Paiyun was in a state of panic: "It is reasonable to find someone to receive them in terms of etiquette, but they are obviously not satisfied with talking to those low-level officials. In the end, they will ask us to come forward..."
"Don't worry!" Lin Su looked at the sky: "It's summer now, the weather is hot, they must be hot after traveling so long, let them cool down..."
Cool down, cool down, damn!
He Paiyun turned around and walked out...
Lin Su called him: "Master He, wait a minute!"
He Paiyun turned around suddenly and said, "Master Lin, you finally realized that this method is wrong, right? He came here in a rage, and you let him sit on a cool mat. Isn't that just adding fuel to the fire? Directly exacerbating the situation?"
It would be good if you were willing to turn around.
Unexpectedly, Lin Su's words turned his brain into paste: "Lord He, please ask the people outside to send me some fruits. The foreigners can't bear your kindness, but I can. How can you be ashamed to come to your Xihe and sleep in the open air? You simply don't treat me as a third-rank official!"
Then, a wonderful scene appeared.
Rows of maids carrying fruits and melons walked through the corridors.
The three fire-breathing clan leaders in the wing stared coldly at the scene. Warm hospitality? Will warm hospitality keep us from causing trouble?
How can it be?
However, the three clan leaders could hardly believe their eyes when they saw the next scene.
These maids are not coming this way.
They all went into the guest rooms on the tower.
The three leaders of alien races were treated as air.
No one even came to offer a cup of tea.
Next, there were thousands of auspicious auras in the sky, and a huge tree mysteriously emerged. The whole Xihe City seemed to be under the shadow of the tree. The leader of the Wood Clan has arrived!
Following the flash of golden light, as if a heavenly sword was slashing across, about to split Xihe City into two, the leader of the Jin clan arrived.
The wind started to blow, and the midsummer weather suddenly turned into a cold winter. However, no one appeared. The leader of the Hidden Clan arrived...
In a moment, strange visions appeared above the entire Zuoxihe City.
Many people had never seen such a strange vision in their lives, and it happened more than thirty times within one hour.
The leaders of all tribes arrived.
In the past, whenever the leaders of alien races, or even high-level elders, came to Xihe City, the City Lord's Mansion would be decorated with lights and a grand banquet would be held. However, today was a strange day. More than 30 leaders of alien races came in person, and they were all accommodated in the west wing, without even a cup of tea.
There was an endless stream of fruits and desserts passing through the corridors of the City Lord's Mansion. However, those courtesies and courtesies were not shown to the aliens, but to the third-rank inspector from Xiandu: Lin Su.
This gentleman started to become arrogant and wanted to try all the delicacies in Xihe City.
All the clan leaders sat on the bench without any distinction, and their hearts were filled with rage.
They looked at the lazy figure in the guest room above, with murderous intent rising in their hearts. However, they were all mature and prudent people, and they were all leaders, but they revealed this unusual feeling, which made people feel a little uneasy deep in their hearts.
Xihe City, a paradise for aliens.
People of different races were rampant in Xihe and no one dared to provoke them.
However, today the situation suddenly changed.
This happened after the four upper tribes, the Earth Tribe, were suddenly exterminated.
What did the Earth Tribe do wrong?
By what horrific means were they destroyed?
They don't know nothing, but at least they don't know everything.
Precisely because they didn't know, they had hidden worries in their hearts, because in Xihe, a land controlled by alien races, a mutant that they could not control suddenly appeared.
They didn't know what this change meant.
Lin Su, a young boy, was not in their hearts, but how could this boy dare to stir up such a huge wave? Even if they used their toes to think about it, they should know that it was the person sitting on the top of Xiandu who made the decision.
The thoughts of the Immortal Emperor of Xiandu were probably known only to the head of the Celestial Clan. Because the Celestial Clan was the alien race that had an alliance with the Immortal Emperor, and the second prince's biological mother, the First-Rank Imperial Concubine Du, was a saint of the Celestial Clan.
However, among the thirty-four clan leaders gathered at present, the leader of the Celestial Clan is missing.
All this exacerbated their anxiety.
Could it be that the destruction of the Earth Clan was approved by the Heaven Clan?
As the speculations increased and the thinking became more complicated, the determination of these clan leaders who came with boundless power slowly lost its initial enthusiasm as they sat on the bench.
As the cool breeze blew, their hearts gradually became firmer.
The situation is unclear, so don't act impulsively.
Listen more and talk less, and try not to be the first to speak out...
As the sun was setting, Lin Su gently stretched out his hand, picked a grape and threw it into his mouth, then slowly stood up: "Master He, these clan leaders must have calmed down. Let's go and meet them!"
How to describe He Paiyun’s inner thoughts?
There is a certain fear of opening the lid, a certain relief of being about to see the bottom card, and also a certain anticipation and excitement...
This is truly an experience that a senior bureaucrat has never had in his life.
Lin Su arrived at the west wing.
He is in the lead, and behind him on the left is He Paiyun.
On the right is Ji Qianling.
Behind them, there was another person, Zhu'er's mother, the fourth elder of Luotian Sect. She was beautiful and dignified like a lady from a noble family, but if her nickname was thrown out, even the toughest man would probably soften immediately, because her nickname was: Skinning Elder.
Lin Su entered the west wing and was directly surrounded by thirty-four alien clan leaders.
Master Luo Tian held up the teacup with a smile, put his legs together, and watched from a distance.
The great elder Luo Tianhui stared at Lin's back with his eyes flickering, as if he was in the same situation as when he was competing with Luo Tianzun three thousand years ago, and he naturally became a spectator.
The other elders are all shrewd people. Since the sect master and the chief elder are spectators, why shouldn’t we be spectators too?
Although His Majesty ordered us to assist him, we have already assisted him.
Now this kid has refused the title of the first elder of the inner sect of Luotian Sect, and he has to create this big trouble. Luotian Sect is not your babysitter, so why should it protect you?
However, there was an elder who finally broke out of this mindset: she was the Skinning Elder.
The Skinning Elder won't reason with anyone.
She does things according to her own will.
When Lin Su and his companions arrived at the west wing, a guard at the door shouted, "Master Lin, the Supervisor, Master He, the Prefect, and Master Ji, the Xiandu Wenyuan Scholar, are here!"
The west wing door slowly opened.
Lin Su walked forward with big strides.
The thirty-four clan leaders on both sides sat cross-legged, looking at the group of people from the corner of their eyes, but no one stood up.
People always have to save face. You let others sit on the bench for several hours. How can a clan leader accept your humiliation? Look at your face?
