Everyone here is an old fox, so of course they know how to take advantage of the opportunity.
Qi Yan's strength is not very strong, he is only at the ninth level of the God King Realm. Many strong men here are confident of killing him.
But Qi Yan has a noble status and is the commander of the inspection envoy. Killing him is a great achievement.
In the death list drawn up by Ji Tianxing, Qi Yan was ranked among the top five important people.
The first is of course the Imperial Master, and the second is Meng Shuai.
If everyone followed Ji Tianxing to intercept and kill Qi Yan, they would not only help Ji Tianxing share his worries, protect Ji Tianxing's reputation, but also gain credit for intercepting and killing Qi Yan.
The most important thing is that Ji Tianxing can easily kill Qi Yan instantly. Maybe they can get the credit without taking action.
Who wouldn’t want to take advantage of this kind of advantage?
Therefore, the heads of the seven clans and Xu Bailian enthusiastically signed up to go with Ji Tianxing.
But unfortunately, Ji Tianxing rejected them all.
"I have found Qi Yan's traces, you don't need to follow him, I can handle it.
Don’t forget, the tasks assigned to you by me are more important!
So many days have passed, and there are only a few days left until the deadline. When will your subordinates come?"
Hearing Ji Tianxing's question, several clan leaders and sect leaders were stunned for a moment, and then they all explained with apologetic smiles on their faces.
"Don't worry, Alliance Leader, our disciples are on their way at full speed and will definitely arrive at Yanxu Cave Heaven within the deadline."
"How can we disobey the alliance leader's order? Alliance leader, please rest assured that our clan will also arrive as scheduled."
"The children of our clan are already running with all their strength, and we will arrive in three days at the latest."
All the clan leaders and sect leaders said that their disciples would arrive on time.
Ji Tianxing did not urge them anymore, and said in a solemn tone: "This time I go to kill Qi Yan, it will take at least eight days.
The deadline will be up in five days, and all members of the Rebel Alliance should also arrive.
At that time, you must divide your forces and fight according to the original plan to eliminate the targets and forces on the death list.
The performance and contribution of each force in the future will determine the amount of rewards after the war.
I hope you all can fight for the common goal instead of having some selfish motives.
If you think you can hide this from me, then go ahead and try, don’t say you didn’t predict what you said.”
His tone was cold, and the threat in it was self-evident.
The expressions of all the clan leaders and sect leaders froze, and a trace of nervousness and shame flashed in their eyes.
Although, they all kept smiling on the surface and didn't even dare to say anything.
But in fact, everyone was alert and quickly put away those selfish thoughts.
In front of the Sword God, they did not dare to play tricks or play tricks.
Especially, the Sword God had already warned them in public.
If they dare to do it again, they will really be secluded from the rebel alliance.
When the time comes, the Sword God doesn't want to see them and even expels them from the Rebel Alliance.
And they have the brand of rebel alliance, and they are mortal enemies with the Imperial Master.
If both parties are offended, they will have no place to stay, and the end will be miserable.
Such consequences have made every force vigilant.
Soon, the discussion was over.
The clan leaders, sect masters and powerful God Kings left the meeting hall one after another.
Ji Tianxing stayed in the hall and gave many instructions to Nangong Buhuo and Nangong Nihuang.
Walking outside the main hall, the clan leaders and sect masters were not in a hurry to leave.
They went around to a remote place and pretended to be walking in the garden, but in fact they communicated through voice messages and discussed what had just happened.
"Everyone, everyone thought before that the Sword God didn't trust us enough and even hid it from us.
Everyone was a little angry and wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with the Sword God after he came back.
But now everyone has seen that the Sword God did not hide this, and even reminded everyone in public."
"Yes! At this point, I'm not afraid of anyone blaming me.
In fact, how shrewd is the Sword God? How could he not see that everyone has their own selfish motives?
He didn't point it out in the past, but this time if everyone wanted to make trouble for him, he might as well point it out.
So, everyone should calm down and work in a down-to-earth manner."
"So, the Sword God is saving face for everyone.
We all had selfish motives before, so he refused to trust us.
If everyone is still like before after today, I'm afraid the Sword God will be very disappointed.
So, you’d better do your own thing.”
"Stop having unrealistic illusions. We have joined the Alliance to Defeat Rebellion. This is something that the entire Haotian Continent knows.
Only when we work wholeheartedly can we gain recognition, trust and praise from the Sword God.
Don’t forget, what was discussed when the alliance was established was basic treatment.
The Sword God also said just now that after the great cause of rebellion is successful, he will reward you based on your merits."
"That's right! No matter what you think, we, the God of War, will not hold us back any longer and will conscientiously carry out all the orders of the Sword God from now on."
"Haha... Our Jiang clan has never complained about the Sword God. We have always followed orders carefully."
"The Lan clan also acts under orders and is most loyal to the Sword God. Don't count me, the Lan clan, among them."
"It was you who were clamoring for an explanation from the Sword God before, but we, the Phoenix Clan, were not involved..."
The seven clan leaders and Xu Bailian were both human beings. They analyzed the situation in an instant and knew what to do in the future.
As a result, everyone became upright and loyal to the Sword God, with a posture of saying, "I won't join you."
As a result, the eight forces are all interested in competing.
They all want to compete in future missions to see who can make great achievements and win the favor of the Sword God.
…
In the Great Hall of Light.
The door was closed tightly, and there were only Ji Tianxing, Nangong Buhuo and Nangong Nihuang in the palace.
Nangong Buhuo frowned and said with worry: "Mr. Long, before you came back, the eight clan leaders and sect masters were still clamoring for an explanation from you.
After all, you have deceived them before and made them feel distrustful.
You just exposed their selfish motives in public and threatened them, I'm worried..."
Before he could finish speaking, Ji Tianxing interrupted him and said with a chuckle: "What are you worried about? Are you afraid that they will become disloyal to the rebel alliance?"
"Alas..." Nangong Buyu didn't say anything. He just sighed and agreed.
Nangong Nihuang was also a little worried and said: "They don't want to take risks and lose their own power, but they also want to get credit. It's really...hard to describe.
Young Master, our alliance has just been established, and mutual trust still needs to be established a little bit, so don't be too hasty."
The father and daughter had nothing to say to Ji Tianxing, and they were worried about fighting against the rebel alliance.
Ji Tianxing waved his hand and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, those eight guys are not fools, they naturally know what to do.
They have joined the rebel alliance and there is no way out.
The only way out is to follow my orders, work hard, and make meritorious deeds as much as possible.
Therefore, your worries are unnecessary.
Moreover, I reminded them today because I don’t want to punish them after the incident actually happens.”
