In the spacious courtyard, more than 40 guards and maids lined up in a neat line, with solemn appearance.
These are the elites selected from the honor guard, who are qualified to accompany Lu Li to the temple to worship the God.
In addition, Jiang Ningxue and several geniuses from the Qianxue Empire were also standing at the front of the team.
Everyone stood in the courtyard, waiting quietly.
Lu Li was not present, and was taking Manager Fang to the other courtyard where Ji Tianxing lived.
Arriving at the other courtyard, Lu Li stood under the ancient pine tree and waited.
Manager Fang walked outside Ji Tianxing's room and shouted respectfully: "Mr. Ji, the time has come. It's time for you to accompany His Royal Highness to the temple."
The door was still closed, and Ji Tianxing's voice came from inside.
"Prince Lu is going to pay homage to the Lord God. As a guilty person, I will not join in the fun to avoid causing any further trouble."
Upon hearing these words, Manager Fang and Lu Li both frowned.
Lu Li waved to General Manager Fang to step back, and he said in person: "Mr. Ji, what do you mean? Didn't we already agree on this matter before?
Now that the time has come, but you don’t go, isn’t this intentional to embarrass me?”
As his voice fell, the door opened with a creak.
Ji Tianxing stepped out, looked at Lu Li with a playful smile, and explained: "Prince Lu has misunderstood. Since I have promised you a long time ago, I will not break my promise.
I just remind Prince Lu that it is best to think this matter carefully before making a decision, so as to avoid any surprises."
He and Lu Li both knew that what happened today would definitely attract attention and discussion among the geniuses from the Six Nations, and some problems would inevitably arise.
Lu Li was startled for a moment, then smiled and said, "As long as Mr. Ji sincerely repented, what accidents could happen?
Moreover, if I dare to invite Mr. Ji to worship in the temple, of course I have already thought about it carefully."
"Repent sincerely?" Ji Tianxing raised his eyebrows, with a playful smile on his lips.
Others don't know, but he knows very well in his heart that he has done nothing wrong, so why should he go to the temple to repent?
He had no fault in the first place, so how could he repent and reform?
The reason why he agreed to Lu Li to go to the temple to worship the God together was that he had other thoughts and purposes.
Ever since the great changes in the world and the divine thunder strike, he has always had many doubts in his heart.
He pondered for a long time but still couldn't figure out why when he entered the temple and saw the statue of Lord Taihao, the scene of the Sword God and Taihao Martial God competing would appear in his soul?
Why did the Great Protector tie him to a stone pillar and whip him, causing the entire Fengshen Mountain to shake and even be blasted with divine thunder?
Is it because of the Sky Burial Sword, or because he looks like the Sword God?
Or maybe it's because there is a sword god's tomb inside him?
He has always wanted to find out what is the connection between him and the Sword God?
He wants to go to the temple again to see if there will be another great change in the world?
Can the statue of Lord Taihao withstand his worship?
With many questions in mind, Ji Tianxing followed Lu Li out of the courtyard and arrived at the front yard.
Lu Li walked at the front of the other party, followed closely by Ji Tianxing, Jiang Ningxue, Manager Fang and others, and behind them were many maids and guards.
A group of people walked out of the Ning Temple in a mighty manner and walked towards the temple under the Haotian Tower.
At this time, the morning sun had just risen, and the pale golden sunlight shone on the top of Fengshen Mountain, making all the buildings splendid.
The sea of clouds surrounding the mountain top also glowed with golden light, looking very auspicious.
This was a good sign for Lu Li and made him feel relaxed and happy.
Not long after, everyone arrived at the square outside the temple.
This broad square was originally destroyed by the great changes in the world and divine thunder, and turned into ruins.
Later, the powerful men and craftsmen of Haotian Tower restored the square to its original state in just one day.
At this moment, hundreds of young geniuses from the six countries are gathering in the square.
Seeing Lu Li and others walking towards them, many geniuses raised their heads and looked at Lu Li, Ji Tianxing and others with complicated eyes.
Most people's eyes were focused on Ji Tianxing.
Everyone wants to see what this guy looks like now after causing all kinds of troubles.
The geniuses of the Izumo Empire also stared at Ji Tianxing, showing deep disdain and anger, and started talking among themselves.
Lu Li ignored the crowd of geniuses from all over the world and led everyone across the square to enter the temple.
The Great Protector and the six divine envoys were already waiting in the temple.
Only after he arrives can the ceremony and worship be held.
However, just as the team was crossing the square, a dozen young geniuses stood in front of the team, blocking the path of Lu Li and others.
These dozen young geniuses are clearly from the Izumo Empire, and the leaders are none other than Lan Yiqing and Kuanglong.
Lu Li stopped immediately, frowned in displeasure, and asked in a deep voice, "What are you doing?"
As the representative of the genius of the Izumo Empire, Lan Yiqing took a step forward, bowed to Lu Li, and explained: "Prince Lu, we have no intention of offending, and we will not prevent you from worshiping the God Lord.
However, our Izumo Empire has a shameless traitor who has disgraced our country.
As people of the Izumo Empire, we must not sit idly by and ignore this, we must stop this traitor and let him give a reasonable explanation!"
Lan Yiqing's cold words spread throughout the square.
The venue instantly became quiet, and the atmosphere became a little heavy and tense.
The young geniuses from other countries quickly retreated to both sides of the square, as if watching a good show.
Everyone knows that the traitor Lan Yiqing refers to is Ji Tianxing.
The geniuses of the Izumo Empire are going to attack Ji Tianxing.
Everyone looked at Ji Tianxing with playful eyes, waiting to see how he would explain and resolve the situation.
The reason why Lu Li tried his best to win over Ji Tianxing was to sow discord between him and the Izumo Empire.
The news that geniuses from all over the world learned was also deliberately released by him.
Now, Lan Yiqing and others showed up to stop him, which was what he had expected, and it was exactly what he wanted.
He thought to himself: "The plan went very smoothly, everything developed according to my expectations.
Since the people of the Izumo Empire are attacking in public, now is a good opportunity for me to win over Ji Tianxing."
Thinking of this, he looked at Lan Yiqing with a cold face and sneered: "Haha... Miss Lan, you can eat random things, but you can't talk nonsense.
The people around me are all my friends and the people of the Qianxue Empire, where are the traitors?"
Lan Yiqing did not argue with him, but stared at Ji Tianxing with cold eyes, and shouted with contempt: "Ji Tianxing, do you have the guts to betray the Izumo Empire, but don't have the guts to stand up and admit it?
Are you going to hide behind Lu Li and be a coward?!"
