Golden light bloomed all over the body of the Shemi Cave Master, Tao Yun appeared above his head, and thunder sounded again in the sky above the Guangming Hall.
Ji Tianxing was too lazy to act. He didn't even need to be 'moved' and directly promised She Mi the benefits of Dongtian.
After it was over, only the Bailian Ancient Sect and the Xia Clan were left in the field without an alliance.
Everyone's eyes fell on Xu Bailian and Chief Xia.
Everyone wanted to see who of the two men would be the first to read out the covenant.
After all, Xu Bailian was thick-skinned enough. When Patriarch Xia still hesitated, he stood up.
He looked at Ji Tianxing and asked, "Sword God, you haven't forgotten our previous agreement, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Chief Xia suddenly became excited and looked at Xu Bailian with a hint of anger and jealousy in his eyes.
He was thinking in his heart: "Damn it! When did you old foxes contact the Sword God in advance and negotiate terms?
I have never met the Sword God before today, and I didn’t negotiate any additional conditions. Isn’t it a big loss?”
Ji Tianxing nodded to Xu Bailian and said calmly: "After the alliance is formed today, I can immediately fulfill the original agreement."
Hearing his answer and his sincerity, Xu Bailian was completely relieved.
He no longer hesitated, picked up the jade slip and began to read out the covenant.
Not long after, he finished reading the covenant and formally formed an alliance with Ji Tianxing.
After the vision of heaven and earth ended, Ji Tianxing also promised in public that he would reward the ancient Bailian Sect with a territory, and in addition, he could develop his power in the ten surrounding areas.
The Ancient Bailian Sect also successfully formed an alliance, and the Xia clan was the only one left in the hall, becoming the focus of everyone's attention.
Everyone understands that when the situation has developed to this point, the Sword God has become the general trend. The Xia clan cannot resist and can only agree.
At this point, if Chief Xia tries to negotiate any terms, he will only be humiliating himself.
Moreover, he had to think of something new. If he couldn't think of a good idea, it would be too boring to just read out the covenant.
With these thoughts in mind, everyone looked at Chief Xia quietly to see how he acted.
Unexpectedly, Patriarch Xia gave everyone a surprise and surprise.
He held the jade slip in his hand, but was not in a hurry to read out the covenant. Instead, he said to Ji Tianxing: "Sword God, you went to the Xia Clan more than a thousand years ago. In that exchange and exchange, the skills of my Xia Clan's disciples were inferior to others.
Many people were injured.
Since then, there has been no intersection between us.
Logically speaking, you have no kindness towards the Xia Clan, but this time you raised your arms and I came to support you.
I believe that you should express your feelings and reasons.
In this way, I can appease the people in my clan, especially those disciples who have been injured by you."
No one expected that Clan Chief Xia would persist in his opinion at the last moment and make a request to Ji Tianxing.
Although, Patriarch Xia has softened his tone and lowered his demands.
But in the eyes of many strong people, this is very unwise.
If Ji Tianxing rejects him, the Xia clan's situation will be too embarrassing.
Fortunately, Ji Tianxing did not get angry, nor did he object in public. He asked calmly: "I wonder what Clan Chief Xia wants? If the conditions are not excessive, I can consider it."
Seeing him relenting, Clan Chief Xia was visibly relieved.
The other leaders who had already formed an alliance began to feel unbalanced in their hearts. They were envious of the Xia clan leader for speaking out, but also worried that the Xia clan would gain more benefits as a result.
Chief Xia pondered for a moment, and then discussed with the guardians and elders for a few words before speaking: "Sword God, our Xia clan lives in a corner, sticking to the Dong'an region. It is relatively barren and has very few cultivation resources.
On the other hand, the neighboring Jiuxiong Territory has relatively rich cultivation resources.
Therefore, we hope that after the great cause of revolt is completed, we can control the two regions of Dong'an and Jiuxun..."
Patriarch Xia was very smart and did not open his mouth to ask for seven or eight domains as he had imagined.
As long as he has one surrounding area, he can still get enough benefits without going too far.
However, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Ji Tianxing.
"Clan Chief Xia, your request is a bit excessive."
Ji Tianxing raised his palm and pointed at Nan Gong Buhuo, Lan Wuji, Chief Shenfeng and others, and said in a majestic tone: "All the clans and sects who came here today will be treated equally by me and will never be treated differently.
The benefits I promise to everyone are the same, even the Nangong clan.
If I am extra merciful and promise the Xia Clan an extra domain, what do you want your friends from these clans and sects to think?"
As soon as this statement came out, Nangong Buhuo, Nangong Nihuang and others were the first to express their agreement.
"That's right! Mr. Long Tian always acts with virtue and is fair and just. I hope that Chief Xia will not break the rules."
"Clan Chief Xia, we venture to say that if everyone is like you and asks the Sword God for more territory, how should the Sword God deal with it? Can fairness and justice be guaranteed?
I’m afraid, no matter how the Sword God distributes the territory, everyone will have resentment in their hearts, right?”
"What's more, we have just formed an alliance today, and we still have to face countless dangers and fights.
I’m afraid it’s not appropriate for us to ask for territory here before we’ve made any achievements or achieved great things, right?”
After the Nangong clan members finished speaking, the Shenfeng clan leaders, Lan Wuji, Xu Bailian and others also expressed their opinions.
Everyone is treated the same, so of course it is impossible to agree that the Xia clan will get an extra territory.
Patriarch Xia was speechless after being retorted, and his face looked a little ugly.
The protector and several elders of the Xia clan also had angry faces and felt quite ashamed.
Fortunately, Ji Tianxing spoke in time and gave the Xia clan a step forward.
"Clan Chief Xia, I hope you can understand that the reason why I give everyone the same treatment and maintain fairness and justice is for everyone's good.
In addition, you and the clan leaders and sect leaders present here may all have doubts in their hearts.
Obviously there are hundreds of regions in the Haotian Continent. After we overthrow the rule of God Emperor Shura, I will be able to control all regions.
Under such circumstances, it is not a problem to entrust three or five domains to each force.
Why are you so stingy and only give each family a territory?"
There is no doubt that this is an issue that several forces are very concerned about.
Even Nangong Buhuo actually had doubts in his heart.
It's just that he chose to believe Ji Tianxing and never asked.
Everyone looked at Ji Tianxing with burning eyes, waiting for the answer.
Ji Tianxing smiled and explained: "We opposed God Emperor Shura and formed an alliance to overthrow him because he blocked the sky with one hand and monopolized power, making the people of Haotian Continent miserable.
Our goal is to restore peace to Haotian Continent, restore the freedom of the people, and allow all living beings to live and work in peace and contentment.
If each power can entrust several domains, its power will definitely increase dramatically.
By then, a state of separatism among the various factions will definitely form, and friction and contradictions will inevitably occur over time.
If war breaks out, the people of Li will suffer and suffer again.
Even if we overthrew the rule of Emperor Shura, we also brought war, so what is the point of our alliance?"
