Seeing this, the Humble Prince, Old Man Qiao, and all the other officials felt relieved. The unexpected disaster had ended in an inexplicable way as if they were in a dream.
The Humble Prince cupped his hands toward the sky and said politely, "May I know your name, senior? Today, you saved the Thunderflame Dynasty from disaster. We will definitely repay your kindness."
There were only seven people in the Mystic Comprehending Realm in the world. However, there was one more out of nowhere. The Humble Prince wanted to know who this person was.
If the Humble Prince guessed correctly, this person might have killed Li Juecheng and Crown Prince Lei Haoge.
There was no comparison between saving the Thunderflame Dynasty and killing the two people. However, the Humble Prince was curious as to why a Mystic Comprehending Realm cultivator would kill Li Juecheng and Lei Haoge.
The voice came from the sky, "Everything is caused by karma. I'm just following the path of karma …"
In the end, the voice gradually disappeared as if it had gone far away.
"Karma, it's karma again. Old Man Qiao, what's the karma he's talking about?" The Humble Prince was confused.
Old Man Qiao looked at the sky as if he wanted to see through the world. He said faintly, "I'm not sure about the path of karma. It involves the origin of heaven and earth. What this person is looking for is much more profound than what I'm looking for.
If I'm not mistaken, Li Juecheng and Lei Haoge were killed by this person. Those two people might be affected by some karma. "
Even Old Man Qiao could not explain it clearly. The Humble Prince was even more confused. Fortunately, the result was good.
The situation just now was truly a matter of life and death, and the Thunderfire Royal Dynasty would have been consigned to eternal damnation. Fortunately, Leng Shiqi had stepped out and delayed for a few breaths of time. Afterward, that mysterious expert had appeared and intimidated the other experts. Only then was the Thunderfire Heaven Punishing Formation ready, and they had finally forced Six Direction Spirit Supremacy to retreat.
At the thought of this, the Humble Prince turned to look at Leng Shiqi. He did not hide the admiration and satisfaction in his eyes.
Leng Shiqi, who was in the Unity of Heaven and Man Realm, dared to face so many Heavenly Origin Realm masters and Six Direction Spiritual Sovereign, who was in the Mystic Comprehending Realm.
Not only did he show his fearless courage, but he also showed his absolute loyalty to the Thunderflame Dynasty!
If he didn't nurture such a talent and put him in an important position, he would be blind.
The Undemocratic King raised his voice and said, "Continue to activate the Heaven-Destroying Thunderfire Formation to prevent Lord Six Directions from attacking us. The rest of you, return to the main hall for a discussion."
Buzz!
A gigantic formation with a radius of a hundred miles appeared. Instantly, red and purple colors filled the sky, enveloping the entire inner city of the Imperial Capital.
This was the supreme formation that the Thunderflame Dynasty was proud of, the Thunderflame Heaven Annihilating Formation!
If the array was fully activated, it would be able to summon lightning and fire. Even a Sky Origin Stage cultivator would not be able to withstand it for long!
Seeing that the Thunderfire Heaven Punishing Array was finally activated, the people in the hall who were still in shock finally calmed down.
Especially those civil officials who had no cultivation base. They almost suffocated under the spiritual pressure of so many Sky Origin Stage cultivators.
If not for Empyrean Blackflame protecting them, these people would probably have long perished.
The Undemocratic King knew how dangerous the process was. He first comforted the people and said, "Those top sects actually joined hands to attack the Imperial Palace. No one expected that. Fortunately, the crisis is over. You can rest assured now.
Moreover, the Imperial Capital has the protection of so many powerful cultivators from the Imperial Hall of Worship and loyal officials like Liu Xingzhi. Just like what the mysterious Ethereal Stage cultivator said, the Thunderflame Dynasty is very lucky! "
Speaking of this, he looked at Leng Shiqi and said, "Liu Xingzhi, when Lord Six Directions forced me to hand over the Dark Thunder Guards and the higher-ups of the Discipline Commission, I did hesitate. However, your appearance made me determined to fight to the death with them!
Even if I die, I will protect everyone's lives! "
Looking at the Undemocratic King's excited expression, Leng Shiqi immediately said with a strong sense of righteousness.
"I will pledge my loyalty to the Thunderflame Dynasty!"
"I will pledge my loyalty to the Thunderflame Dynasty!"
The other civil and military officials were all very excited. After going through such a great disaster, it was rare for them to be united.
"Liu Xingzhi, the late Emperor made an exception and chose you as the Chief Steward of the Dark Thunder Guards. You've made a great contribution this time. I won't mistreat you." The Undemocratic King was full of praise for Leng Shiqi.
Leng Shiqi, on the other hand, was secretly laughing. In fact, he did not do anything. All he did was to say a few nice words. He did not make any great contribution.
However, what he did showed the Undemocratic King his loyalty. That was why the Undemocratic King decided to put him in an important position.
Of course, if it was someone else who rushed up like this, they might have been killed by Lord Six Directions with a slap.
Leng Shiqi dared to rush up because he had his own trump card.
His trump card was the mysterious Ethereal Stage cultivator!
Leng Shiqi was not good at foresight. It was impossible for him to know that a Ethereal Stage cultivator was nearby and would help him.
In fact, the so-called Ethereal Stage cultivator was actually Leng Shiqi himself!
To be more precise, it was his Soul Double!
Not long ago, when the Ink Frost Ghoul and Leng Shiqi were communicating through telepathy, he guessed that the Ink Frost Ghoul would secretly save him after he stepped up. That was how he would be treated now.
However, Leng Shiqi would not hand his life over to the Ink Frost Ghoul. What if the Ink Frost Ghoul failed to save him?
Therefore, an extremely crazy idea flashed through his mind!
He immediately exchanged for a magical item from the System Store. It was the Soul Double!
The Soul Double was actually a duplicate of Leng Shiqi's soul. It was equivalent to having two souls, each of which was himself.
The mysterious Ethereal Stage cultivator was actually Leng Shiqi in disguise!
He had formed a Godly Soul when he broke through to the Unity of Heaven and Man Realm. Even without a physical body, he could survive in the outside world for a long time.
He secretly released his Soul Double and used the Law of Earth to cover his aura. Then, he used the Law of Gravity to intimidate the elites. That was how he was mistaken for a Ethereal Stage cultivator.
The moment Leng Shiqi's Soul Double appeared, forcing the Ethereal Stage cultivators to fall to the ground was already the limit of what he could do.
It seemed like a great deterrent, but in fact, it did not cause any harm to the elites.
It was just that the Ethereal Stage cultivators subconsciously thought that it was a Ethereal Stage cultivator who attacked, so they were mentally defeated!
Leng Shiqi's actions were naturally risky. If Six Directions Spirit Sovereign attacked him directly, he would be exposed.
Therefore, he did not attack again after that. He even used the word "karma" to show that he was unfathomable so that others would not dare to test him.
As long as he could delay until the Heaven-Destroying Thunderfire Formation was activated, he would succeed.
Fortunately, everything was going according to his plan, and the result was the best.
Now, not only was Leng Shiqi placed in an important position, but he was also blamed for killing Li Juecheng and Lei Haoge. Therefore, he no longer had any worries.
To be able to toy with two Ethereal Stage cultivators and dozens of Ethereal Stage cultivators in the palm of his hand, Leng Shiqi was bold and crazy enough to do it.
Of course, all of this was based on the premise that he had comprehended the Law of Nature in advance. Otherwise, even if he had the System, it would be useless no matter how bold he was.
The Humble Prince pondered for a moment, then said, "Liu Xingzhi, you have not been one of the Four Chiefs for long, so you must not be in charge of many provinces.
From now on, the Nine Eastern Counties of the Thunderfire Dynasty are under your supervision, and I grant you the power of acting Grand Commander! "
