Ye Yang said coldly, "Whether you accept it or not is not important. What I want is Jiang Chen's death!"

"Execute it!"

"Lord Qijian!" Bu Ting said sadly, "Jiang Chen has already merged with Jianmu. It won't be long before he dies and his spirit dissipates, leaving not even a trace of his soul. Can't you wait a little longer?"

Ye Yang still said emotionlessly, "I'll say it again, grant Jiang Chen death, or you die."

Bu Ting laughed and said, "Lord Qijian, you've changed too!"

"Can't you see that if Jiang Chen or I die, Jianmu will never be reborn, and our plan will collapse completely?"

"That's your problem!" Ye Yang said, "If you don't want to kill yourselves, just admit that Diwang (the Emperor) is a despicable villain, and I, Ye Yang, will turn around and leave without saying another word!"

Bu Ting roared sharply, "Lord Qijian, why are you forcing me so hard? So many sacrifices, can't they earn even a shred of your pity?"

Ling said at this time, "Bu Ting, your sacrifices have all been in vain."

"Do you think that He Lingbo only saw through your plan because Li Po reminded her?"

"You underestimate the Samsara Saint Lord too much, underestimate the strategists in the Heavenly Soul."

"Diwang was poisoned by the Samsara Saint Lord while he was alive, so how could he win against the Samsara Saint Lord after death by using death to plan for life?"

Jiang Chen couldn't help but say, "If you want to kill me, then kill me, why bother quibbling for Li Po? To think that I, Jiang Chen, roamed freely all my life, only to die at the hands of a villain in the end. How laughable, how laughable!"

Ling smiled and said, "Does Mr. Bu think so too?"

"May I ask, sir, what kind of people did Diwang lack the most in his command back then?"

"The Three… Three Masters!" Bu Ting said with difficulty, "Diwang's command was full of talented people back then, but he failed to recruit the Three Masters to serve him. Otherwise… but never mind."

Ling opened his mouth and said, "Diwang didn't have the Three Masters under his command, but the Samsara Saint Lord gathered the Fate Master, the Calculation Master, and the Luck Master in one person."

"Do you think he couldn't calculate Diwang's plan?"

"He Lingbo wants to kill Li Po, and that is actually to break Diwang's scheme."

"Whether Li Po dies at the hands of He Lingbo, or at the hands of Jiang Chen, Li Chunfeng will not let it go."

"If they use some means, do you think Li Chunfeng will open the Heavenly Gate in anger?"

"No!" Bu Ting shook his head and said, "I understand Li Chunfeng, he would never do such a thing!"

Ling smiled and said, "Then what about Qu Mo?"

"When he finds out that his disciple has been set up, what will he do?"

"This…" Bu Ting didn't know how to answer Ling for a moment.

Jiang Chen's voice was filled with confusion as he said, "Have we really been schemed against? Then we…"

Jiang Chen didn't dare to continue speaking, he couldn't accept such a result.

So many sacrifices made by Diwang's subordinates, only to be schemed against in the end, no one can accept that.

Bu Ting even cried out in grief, "Diwang, your subject is incompetent, I have failed Diwang's trust! I am incompetent!"

Hei Ye Xiao really couldn't bear to watch any longer, "Hall Master, Ling, Master Ye, Jiang Chen and the others have their faults, I am willing to apologize for them, please stop badgering them!"

"Jiang Chen, Bu Ting, although they have their shortcomings, their hearts are incomparably sincere for the sake of righteousness!"

"I beg the three of you for forgiveness!"

Ling looked at Ye Yang, and only spoke when he saw that he didn't react, "First, let Jiang Chen heal Li Po!"

Without saying a word, Jiang Chen released a surge of vitality, and my injuries instantly recovered. Jiang Chen said in a low voice, "Hall Master Li, I was wrong, please forgive me!"

Jiang Chen lowered his head, but I didn't feel any joy of revenge!

Just like Hei Ye Xiao said, the subordinates of Diwang don't like me, but their hearts are incomparably sincere towards the cause of righteousness.

Who can say for sure what is right and wrong!

I can probably guess some of what Jiang Chen is thinking.

Diwang's subordinates are not just talking about righteousness. For the sake of their beliefs, they can be lonely for a hundred years, and they can also die generously. In Jiang Chen's view, I don't have that kind of courage, so naturally I can't enter his eyes.

If Jiang Chen was just someone who wanted others to die while he himself only paid lip service to righteousness, I would definitely hate him to the bone.

But I can't bring myself to hate him now.

I slowly waved my hand and said, "Let's write off our grievances."

Bu Ting hurriedly said, "Commander Ling, please teach us the method to break the situation! Bu Ting cannot thank you in person, but… but…"

Bu Ting said "but" twice in a row, but couldn't continue.

What can he offer as thanks now?

He couldn't even say "I'll repay you as an ox or a horse in the next life!"

He and Jiang Chen are both destined to disappear into ashes!

Ling waved his hand and said, "Our Liangjie Tang's trip is to deal with the Heavenly Tribulation. Why bother with thanks or no thanks?"

"But…" Jiang Chen only said "but," and the words that followed were forcibly suppressed. It seemed he was being restrained by Bu Ting.

Ling said, "You have never understood one thing. Li Po has never been under Diwang's command, and he has no intention of inheriting Diwang's will. Why should he listen to your orders?"

"It's not just Li Po who thinks this way. Anyone with some status in the art world would think the same."

Ling is right. Every time a major event occurs in the Jianghu, the first thing the various forces do is to elect an alliance leader. Otherwise, the Jianghu will be a mess and unable to accomplish anything.

Diwang's role is to integrate the art world.
