Baikuangdizhou, in a deep valley!
There are a large number of palaces in the valley. In all directions of the palace, there are countless people wearing black robes. The surrounding mountains are covered with countless sword blades.
Suddenly, a red light fell from the sky, and there seemed to be a ball of flame in the red light. It instantly attracted the attention of countless men in black robes.
But he saw a burly man standing in the flames. The man twisted his head and showed an evil smile.
The man's face was extremely strange, as if it were made of crystal, glowing with light.
Countless people in black robes suddenly showed enthusiasm when they saw the flaming man.
"Meet the true God!"
"Meet the Third Protector!"
… … …
… …
…
A group of men in black robes shouted excitedly. These men in black robes were all disciples of the Sword God Cult.
But the flaming man is the third protector of the Sword God Sect and the True God of Libian.
"Well, is everyone else here?" Li Ren asked in a deep voice.
"Yes, all the protectors are here, and so is True God Kanren!" A disciple of the Sword God Sect said respectfully.
Li Ren looked towards a huge palace not far away.
"Um!"
Li Ren hummed softly and entered the hall with a sway.
In the main hall, there is a throne in the north, which has always been empty. There are nine thrones in two rows. On each throne, there is a number, one, two, three..., eighteen.
The eighteen thrones correspond to the eighteen protectors of the Sword God Sect.
At this moment, many protectors have arrived, each wrapped in black robes and sitting on their respective thrones.
However, there are a few that are vacant, namely 'one', 'two', 'three', 'nine', 'sixteen', 'seventeen', and 'eighteen'!
The Sword God Sect has eighteen guardians and eighteen thrones.
The Three Guardians, the True God Libian, arrived belatedly.
As soon as Libian arrived, all the guardians turned their heads.
The heads of all the protectors were hidden in their hats, and their expressions could not be seen clearly. However, the fourth protector was not like this, and his crystal-like face was exposed. Unlike the third protector, the fourth protector's whole body exuded aqua blue.
The Fourth Protector is the true god of Kanren who killed the gods in the underground palace of the Great Wilderness Fairy Court not long ago.
"Finally here?" True God Kanren said in a deep voice.
"You're not late yet, hahaha!" Li Ren laughed loudly, swayed, and returned to his throne.
There was sudden silence in the hall.
The Great Protector and the Second Protector have not shown up yet, and the nine, sixteen, seventeen, and eighteen thrones are all empty. To the north, the seat of the leader has always been empty, with no one sitting down.
Li Ren sat down and looked around: "They all came together!"
Kanren said in a deep voice: "You don't even know who called this gathering!"
"Who dares not to come when the Great Protector is summoned! Is the Great Protector here?" Li Ren asked curiously.
The leader of the Sword God Cult disappeared not long after he founded the Sword God Cult. No one saw the leader again, as if he had disappeared and evaporated.
Nowadays, the Sword God Sect is still able to impose such orders and prohibitions, but it is because the Great Protector is here.
The eighteen guardians of the Sword God Sect were ranked based on their strength when they were founded in the past. However, over the years, some have become stronger and some have become weaker. However, the ranking represents the strength when the sect was established.
Li Ren and Kan Ren, even though they have now achieved the status of true gods, they still do not dare to act arrogantly in the face of the Sword God Sect. Without the leader to suppress them, they still have the Great Protector sitting in charge.
Is the great protector Li Ren coming? Everyone is in awe.
The Great Protector is extremely mysterious. No one has seen the appearance of the Great Protector except the leader. However, every time he appears, it means something important is happening in the Sword God Sect.
Both times the gods were slaughtered, there were figures of great protectors.
Li Ren and Kan Ren were able to become true gods, thanks to the careful arrangements of the Great Protector. Even if they conspired to kill the gods in the Great Wilderness Fairy Court not long ago, it was the Great Protector who pulled the strings.
If the Great Protector wanted to become a god, he would have had the opportunity a long time ago, but he gave up the opportunity every time. Although Li Ren and Kan Ren are stronger now, they are still grateful to the Great Protector in their hearts, or in other words, Don't dare to be presumptuous towards the Great Protector.
The first two meetings created two true gods. Now, there is another meeting. Li Ren and Kan Ren are fine, but the other guardians are actually very excited in their hearts. Are they going to kill the gods again
The protectors waited patiently. After a while, a figure in black robe slowly walked out from the side door of the main hall. On the black robe, there was an embroidery of a divine sword. It looked extremely ordinary, but all the protectors looked inexplicably solemn.
"Crash!"
Almost instantly, all the guardians stood up, as if to welcome the last man in black.
"Great Protector!"
"Great Protector!"
"Great Protector!"
… … … …
… … …
…
All the Dharma protectors said respectfully.
"Yes!" The Great Protector responded softly.
The Great Protector walked slowly, and paused when he reached the leader's throne, but it was just a pause, and then slowly walked back to his throne.
The leader is not here, but the great protector responds to his call. With great benefits, the Sword God Sect's protectors respected him immensely.
The Great Protector slowly sat down, and then all the Protectors followed suit.
"Two more people are missing from this gathering?" the Great Protector said solemnly.
There are five people missing in total, the second protector, the ninth protector, the sixteenth protector, the seventeenth protector, and the eighteenth protector!
"The Seventeenth Protector and the Eighteenth Protector didn't come to the last gathering and fell into the hands of the Shengdan Alliance. At that time, Wu Yuanzun and the Son of Dan Shen held a god-slaughter conference and divided up the defective godhead of the Seventeenth Protector, but swallowed up the Eighteen The godhead who protects the law!" Li Ren said in a deep voice.
"Wu Yuanzun?" the Great Protector said in a deep voice.
"Yes, this time, the Ninth Guardian and the Sixteenth Guardian are missing. The Ninth Guardian has been confirmed to have died in the hands of Wang Xiong, the King of the East of the Great Qin. The Sixteenth Guardian. Now all suspicions point to Wang Xiong. I am afraid that they are also related to this Wang Xiong. It cannot be separated!" Kan Ren said in a deep voice.
"Wang Xiong!" The great protector's voice was low.
"Yes, the Great Protector. In fact, what makes us most surprised is the Second Protector. We have never seen the Second Protector. Could he have long ago...!" Li Ren asked curiously.
"Second Protector? He should still be alive. As for where he is, I don't know! He may have forgotten about our Sword God Sect!" There was a trace of complaint in the tone of the Great Protector.
"Yes, what a pity! Otherwise, under the leadership of the Great Protector, my position as true god might still belong to him!" Li Ren said with a smile.
The Great Protector was slightly silent, as if he didn't want to mention these two Protectors.
"Great Protector, are you taking any action?" Li Ren asked curiously.
As soon as Li Ren opened his mouth, the other guardians immediately stared at the great guardian.
Although the battles in the first two operations were extremely miserable, two guardians finally became true gods. Is there a plan this time
"The purpose of the Sword God Sect is to unify the Bai Kuang Continent. The first step is to seize the position of the Five True Gods! But the position of the True God is not so easy to plan!" the Great Protector said in a deep voice.
"The Great Protector is right. Now, Wu Yuanzun and the three true gods are almost united. As soon as we take action, the three of them will immediately support each other. If we want to trick them into the underground palace again, I'm afraid...!" Li Ren said in a deep voice. .
"It all depends on man-made efforts, but the time has not come yet!" the Great Protector said solemnly.
"Yes!" The guardians nodded immediately.
Everyone knows that it is difficult. True God, with the divine personality of a true god, his strength has soared so much. His strength is even stronger than that of the Immortal Emperor and the Cult Leader. It can't be obtained so easily.
"Does any of you have a detailed explanation about the ancient battlefield?" the Great Protector said in a deep voice.
Li Ren took a deep breath: "Great Protector, I have found out clearly. The man in purple robe died under Wang Xiong's sword, and the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation finally failed. Lao Jiu went to capture Wang Xiong, but was eventually killed by Wang Xiong. of!"
"Wang Xiong? Ruined my good deeds!" the Great Protector said in a cold tone.
"The Great Protector, the Great Desolate Immortal Emperor, Xia Ruotian, is our ally, and his strength cannot be underestimated. Why should we unite with the Great Zhou Immortal Emperor to surround and kill him? I don't understand." Li Ren asked curiously.
Not only was Li Ren curious, but all the guardians here were also curious.
"Great Protector, you asked me and Lao Jiu to contact the purple-robed man. Only Lao Jiu and I know who the purple-robed man is. The purple-robed man is ambitious, and you even taught him the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation. But, the purple-robed man , How can it be better than an ally like Xia Ruotian?" Kan Ren also showed a puzzled expression.
"You don't understand. I don't want to kill Xia Ruotian. I want to borrow the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation to help him break through. It's a pity, it's a pity...!" The Great Protector sighed.
"Oh? Great Protector, are you using the Purple Robed Man and the Great Zhou Immortal Emperor to make Xia Ruotian stronger?" Li Ren said in surprise.
"That's all, this matter is over!" The Great Protector sighed.
"It has passed? How could it have passed! It's all Wang Xiong's fault. He ruined your good deeds, the Great Protector. Lao Jiu went to catch him, and he even killed Lao Jiu. What's more, the death of Lao Sixteen was inseparable from him! "Li Ren said coldly.
"Yes, this Wang Xiong has become enemies with our Sword God Sect! This person's growth rate is too terrifying and we cannot keep him any longer!" Kan Ren also nodded.
"Great Protector, let's go to Lingxiao City, capture him, and let the world know that our Sword God Sect is not that easy to bully!"
"Great Protector, Wang Xiong's life is a blasphemy against our Sword God Sect. Wang Xiong has to die!"
… … … …
… … …
…
At this moment, all the protectors showed cold looks. This was not just as simple as revenge, but also to maintain the prestige of the Sword God Sect. Now, the Sword God Sect was at the height of its power in Bai Kuang Di Continent. At this time, Wang Xiong's appearance, Isn't it adding to the prestige of the Sword God Sect? This will definitely be a big obstacle to the subsequent recruitment of disciples.
Even the two true gods now agreed to capture Wang Xiong quickly.
The Great Protector tapped his fingers lightly on the armrest of the throne, as if he was thinking.
The protectors expressed their attitudes and gradually became quiet.
"The Thirteenth Protector, the Fourteenth Protector, the Fifteenth Protector!" the Great Protector said in a deep voice.
"Here!" The three people immediately came out.
"The three of you have identified the disciples and go to Lingxiao City!" the Great Protector said in a deep voice.
"Yes!" the three of them responded.
But others frowned slightly, because, in comparison, the Ninth Guardians are stronger. Although the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Guardians are more numerous, I am afraid that Lingxiao City also has the protection of the Great Qin Emperor. Can we go to three Guardians?
"Li Ren and Kan Ren will follow in secret. Other protectors are not allowed to go!" the great protector said in a deep voice.
"Yes!" everyone responded.
Although I don't understand the intention of the great protector, if the two true gods go there, even if the nine kings of Qin arrive together, they can still capture Wang Xiong.
"Great Protector, why do we have to be in the dark? Let the three of them be in front?" Kan Ren didn't understand.
If we go to capture Wang Xiong, won't we only increase the power of the Sword God Cult? Why hide your head and show your tail
"You two should try not to take action when you can!" the Great Protector said solemnly.
"Ah?" The two true gods said in confusion.
"Also, don't kill Wang Xiong!" the Great Protector said in a deep voice.
"What?" All the guardians asked in shock.
"You can teach Wang Xiong a lesson, but Wang Xiong cannot die. This is my explanation to you. No matter how you teach him a lesson, no matter how you destroy him, Wang Xiong must live for me!" the Great Protector said solemnly.
"Ah? Why? Great Protector, what is your intention?" Li Ren asked in confusion.
Not only Libian couldn't understand it, but other protectors also didn't understand what the great protector meant.
"Just do as I arranged! I have my own considerations!" the Great Protector said coldly.
The guardians looked at each other and finally nodded in confusion.
"Last point, if the Emperor of Qin shows up, no matter how big your grievances are, stop taking action immediately. Remember, no matter how big your grievances are!" the Great Protector said solemnly.
The two true gods looked at each other, obviously full of confusion, but in the end they nodded.
