Ji Tianxing had already guessed that the Burial Society would ask this question.
He raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "Do you think I don't believe Xie Wudao and am deliberately testing him?"
"Obviously, you have already tested it." Zang Tian said calmly.
Ji Tianxing looked forward and said with a complicated expression: "When I was at Tianzhu Mountain, I mentioned Xiaobai and Xie Wudao to Huang Long.
Huanglong avoided talking to Xie Wudao and only talked a few words about Xiaobai.
From then on, I guessed that there might be some misunderstanding between Huang Long and Xie Wudao."
Zangtian said in a faint tone: "So, you just questioned Xie Wudao face to face."
Ji Tianxing nodded and said: "Yes, I want to know what happened between them.
It's a pity that Xie Wudao didn't tell me, so I couldn't ask more questions.
However, Xie Wudao may have his own difficulties, as long as he doesn't change his original intention towards me and Tianzhu Mountain."
Zang Tian then asked: "You have confirmed that Xie Wudao did not betray, why don't you tell you the truth?
You have two different attitudes towards him and towards Huang Long."
Ji Tianxing nodded slightly and said: "Of course there is a difference! When the news of my death spreads, the Shenwu Continent will definitely be in turmoil.
I have offended so many forces and powerful people in the past, and they will definitely take revenge on Tianzhu Mountain.
For thousands of years, Tianzhu Mountain has been in danger and dilemma.
No matter how loyal a disciple is, it is impossible to hold on to the glory and faith of the past and accompany Tianzhu Mountain to destruction.
Many disciples have gone their separate ways and established their own families. This is human nature and I don't blame them.
Now that I see Xie Wudao again, I won't blame him.
But Huang Long has stayed in Tianzhu Mountain for thousands of years. He is my most loyal disciple, and of course I trust him the most!"
After a pause, Ji Tianxing continued: "Now, only Yaoyao, Keke and Huanglong know my true identity, and they will keep it secret.
At present, my strength is not strong enough, so it is not appropriate to reveal my identity, otherwise there will be endless troubles!"
Zang Tian agreed with this, nodded and said: "Yes, there are countless people who want to kill you. In addition to the demons, there are also many martial arts forces and powerful martial saints."
Ji Tianxing said calmly: "In the hall just now, Xie Wudao lost his temper in public, which aroused everyone's suspicion and speculation.
I could only conceal my identity and let Xie Wudao block the news.
If I confess my identity to him, no matter how hard he disguises himself, his whereabouts will be exposed in front of everyone.
Once the news of the Sword God's rebirth and return spreads on the mainland, we may have no choice but to continue to be in exile.
I'm not sure how many people want to kill me and how many people will help me."
Zangtian was silent for a moment and said in a solemn tone: "That's fine, it's best to keep it a secret until you return to the divine realm.
Now that Xie Wudao regards you as his junior brother, he will also take good care of you, and you will have an extra helper."
Ji Tianxing chuckled and said, "It doesn't matter whether he helps or not. Now I'm here to help him guard Linxian Pass and expel the demon army."
Zangtian thought for a moment and asked: "You have just arrived at Linxian Pass, and you are not prepared to fight, but you have to practice in the secret room.
Could it be that... your strength has reached a critical point and you are about to break through to the Martial Saint level?"
Ji Tianxing nodded and said: "Yes, I have a hunch that we will definitely be able to break through within a month at most.
Only by returning to the Martial Saint Realm can you display your true swordsmanship and be qualified to conquer the continent."
Zangtian reminded: "Yes, only when you return to the Martial Saint Realm can you be truly reborn.
At that time, you can do more things, such as the phantom star core in the void under Soul Broken Cliff.
There is also the wreckage of the divine ship under the Ghost Desert in Beiming Mountain."
Ji Tianxing chuckled and said: "You are just thinking about the phantom star core and the wreckage of the divine ship, and you want me to get them as soon as possible to help you restore them into artifacts.
Don't worry, I didn't forget it.
After I reach the Martial Saint Realm, I will definitely go there."
Zangtian said no more and warned: "Then you can practice in seclusion. We will talk about this later."
Afterwards, Zang Tian fell into a deep sleep, and Ji Tianxing also began to practice Qigong.
Xie Wudao was very efficient and personally delivered the information Ji Tianxing requested that night.
Ji Tianxing spent half the night reading all the information.
He also had sufficient understanding of the defense situation inside and outside Linxian Pass, as well as the strength of the demon army.
Then, he practiced with peace of mind.
…
Before I knew it, five days had passed.
During these five days, Ji Tianxing has been practicing hard in seclusion in a secret room, trying to break through the bottleneck of the Martial Saint Realm.
Xie Wudao did not bother him, nor did he take the initiative to attack the demons.
He continued to train his army and spy on the demon clan's intelligence as usual.
In addition, he also summoned several generals and a dozen guards who were present that day.
Everyone was told to keep it strictly confidential and not to reveal the information.
However, after what happened that day, the generals and guards revealed the news.
Now the news has spread in Linxian Pass, and at least hundreds of thousands of people know about it.
Moreover, the news had already spread out of Linxian Pass and spread throughout the Kingdom of God.
When Xie Wudao learned that the news had been leaked, he immediately became furious and scolded the generals and guards severely.
But the deal was already done, and there was nothing he could do.
Even if you kill those generals and guards, it will not help.
He could only issue a strict order to prohibit the soldiers at Linxian Pass from discussing and spreading the matter.
Once discovered or reported, severe punishment will be given.
In the early morning of the sixth day, Ji Tianxing finally came out of seclusion.
As soon as he returned to the room, Xie Wudao learned the news and rushed over.
After Xie Wudao bowed to him, he said seriously: "Master Ji, I have already announced the news about your appointment as deputy commander.
Moreover, I also instructed the more than 20 generals under my command to strictly implement your orders.
Previously, you showed great power outside the pass and killed more than 300,000 demons, which shocked all the soldiers.
When the soldiers learned that you were serving as deputy commander, they were very excited and looking forward to it, waiting for you to lead them to win the battle."
Ji Tianxing nodded and said, "Since you have made the arrangements, I'm relieved.
The soldiers have been recuperating for several days, and now it is time to go out to conquer the border and make achievements.
Xie Wudao, go and recruit 300,000 elite soldiers, I will lead them to attack Black Wind Valley!"
Xie Wudao was about to nod in agreement, but suddenly he reacted and his expression suddenly changed.
"Ah? Mr. Ji, did I hear you correctly? You...you want to attack Black Wind Valley?
That is the only barrier and line of defense in the wasteland outside the pass.
The demons stationed more than 400,000 troops in Black Wind Valley, setting up a trap of ambushes and an impenetrable defensive formation...
If you open your mouth to attack Black Wind Valley, I'm afraid no general would dare to accept your order!
This... to put it bluntly, this is completely leading the soldiers to die!"
