The old and frail Emperor He hunched his back and said slowly, "During this meeting of the Holy Ancestor, the use of Holy Dao power is prohibited. All communication must be done in the manner of ordinary children of the Imperial Clan."
After Di He finished speaking, he gently pressed down with his right hand, and a strange aura descended from the ancestral hall and landed on the ancestors.
All the strange lights around the ancestors were suppressed back into their bodies, and their eyes turned into normal eyes. Their power dissipated, but their might remained.
"Thank you, seniors." Fang Yun breathed a sigh of relief.
The ancestors were still covered in armor as before, with jade armor attached to their bodies, revealing no features except their eyes.
Emperor Ji glanced at the ancestors and said, "After the great battle of our imperial clan, rewards and punishments are the most important thing. In this battle, you all gave your all, and there is no punishment. We should reward you according to your merits."
No one spoke, but the atmosphere in the ancestral temple immediately changed.
Fang Yun was muttering in his heart that it was not a big deal for these saints to lose their power. There should be no reward for merit at this time. It should be summarized and extended. I have been teaching for nothing these days. However, Fang Yun's heart moved, and he vaguely understood that things would not be as simple as they seemed on the surface.
Fang Yun seemed to casually glance at the other ancestors and found that several of the holy ancestors' attention was completely focused on him.
To be precise, it is concentrated on the most powerful divine star in his hands.
Fang Yun suddenly realized that although he could not judge Di Ji’s attitude now, he could at least be sure that the strongest divine star was the main topic of this meeting.
Suddenly, Di Ting looked at Fang Yun and said, "Let's not talk about anything else first, let's solve the most important and strongest divine star. I have accumulated a lot of military merits over the years, and I want the strongest divine star."
In the hall, the sound of sneering could be heard continuously.
Di Ting did not get angry. He just looked at Fang Yun quietly, which put a lot of pressure on Fang Yun.
Fang Yun thought to himself: "The "Ting" in this Di Ting means thunder and lightning. Could he be the Thunder Ancestor? No wonder I always find this person annoying!"
Di Ji did not look at Di Ting, but looked outside the door, and said slowly: "Things have to be done step by step. According to the rules of the Di clan, if the Di clan faces a disaster, no matter how to solve it, the person who first discovers the disaster will get half of the merit and be the first merit. The instructor discovered the conspiracy of the World-Destroying Dragon Emperor with his own wisdom, and resolutely proposed to attack, so he should get half of the merit and be the first merit. Who objects?"
Di Ting smiled and said, "It's true that the instructor discovered it first, but he has not entered the ancestral temple and is not really a member of my imperial clan. Therefore, the military merit can be given to him, but as for the first merit, we still need to discuss it."
Fang Yun narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Di Ting. The imperial family had a custom of rewarding people based on merit, that is, the one who made the greatest contribution would be rewarded first.
Di Ji slowly turned his head, stared into Di Ting's eyes, raised his head slightly, and said: "I said he is from the imperial family, so he is from the imperial family. Why, are you questioning me in the discussion at the ancestral hall?"
Although the power of all the ancestors was suppressed, a strange vibration was formed in the hall because of Emperor Ji's words, and ripples appeared in the space near the Hundred-Winged Turtle Dragon.
Emperor Ji's emotions fluctuated, and heaven and earth followed suit.
Di Ting stared at Di Ji fearlessly. After a long while, he laughed and said, "You are still the same. You can't take a joke. Since you are the guarantor, if he is said to be a member of the Di clan, then he is a member of the Di clan."
After saying that, Di Ting turned around and looked at Fang Yun, with a smile in his eyes, and said: "We are all from the Emperor Clan, remember to take care of each other. Those members of the Emperor Clan who don't know how to help each other have been eaten by the Taichu World-Destroying Dragon."
His face was almost entirely covered by the jade armor, but Fang Yun seemed to see his bloody mouth, as big as the mouth of the World-Destroying Dragon Emperor.
Emperor Ji continued, "When the White Demon of the Dark Night came, he used the faith of all living beings to stop it and saved all the descendants of the Emperor Clan. Not to mention his extra merits, just counting the merits of this battle, he can still get half of the remaining merits."
Di Ting then said, "I don't object, but I have some opinions. It was the instructor who urged us to attack the World-Destroying Emperor Dragon, thus putting the descendants in danger. Even if there is no punishment for this matter, at most it is a balance of merits and demerits, right? He led the descendants of the imperial family into danger and then resolved it. How can it be considered a success?"
Di Ji still looked outside the ancestral hall and said, "If it is a fault that the descendants of the imperial family are in danger, I will bear the responsibility alone."
"You..." Di Ting took a deep breath and suppressed his emotions.
Fang Yun discovered that after losing the power of the Holy Way, the emotions of the ancestors would be greatly affected, and they would become people full of rich emotions, rather than a lofty collection of the Holy Way.
Di Yuan said: "It is difficult to define this fault, but the teacher has done a great job in saving people. If it is erased, it will inevitably chill the hearts of all the descendants of the imperial family. I support Di Ji."
The other saints did not speak.
Emperor Ji continued, "Afterwards, under his command, we were able to kill many Primordial World-Destroying Dragons. According to the normal definition of military merit, we were only assisting him. He personally ordered the Night White Demon to kill many Primordial World-Destroying Dragons, more than we killed together. Therefore, he will get half of the remaining military merit."
This time, even Di Ting did not refute.
"His fourth contribution was saving my ancestor and preventing chaos among my clan. Therefore, he will get half of the remaining military merits." Emperor Ji said.
Di Ting moved slightly, but ultimately did not speak.
The other Saint Ancestors nodded slightly. Saving Emperor Ji was too important. If Emperor Ji died, no one would be able to resist the World-Destroying Imperial Dragon. By then, the World-Destroying Imperial Dragon would not need the strongest divine star to directly massacre the entire Emperor clan.
"His fifth achievement was to seize the strongest divine star from the White Demon of the Dark Night and prevent it from being snatched away by the World-Destroying Imperial Dragon or other saints. Therefore, he will get half of the remaining military merits." Emperor Ji said.
Di Yuan added: "I was beside him at the time. If I had snatched the Strongest Divine Star, I would have been attacked by the Night White Devil. So, the Strongest Divine Star was indeed obtained by him."
Di Ting said angrily: "You can calculate it yourself. After half of the five rounds, how much merit do we have left? All of us together are not even a fraction of his! We have made such a great effort, and two holy ancestors have died. Is this the only credit we can get?"
The dead have no merit.
Fang Yun silently calculated that this battle merit could be divided equally into thirty-two parts, and he would get thirty-one parts alone.
A Saint Ancestor said sourly: "Who told him to take the first credit and command the White Devil of the Dark Night? Without him, even if there were more Saint Ancestors, they would surely be defeated."
"I don't agree with this way of distributing military merits."
At this time, the voice of the Hundred-Winged Turtle Dragon sounded: "I need to report that before the battle, the Saint Ancestors did not tell me what to do. Under the order of the instructor, I collected many treasures that originally belonged to the Great Wilderness Blue Dragon. They are all in the Emperor's Treasury. The harvest this time is much richer than any war."
The eyes of the ancestors flashed, and they immediately saw the treasures in the emperor's treasury. Almost everyone's breathing became rapid.
It seems that in addition to the most powerful divine star, there are other trophies.
As for the disappearance of the Nine Extreme Heavenly Pillars, the Tianyuan Mother Liquid and the Source of Heaven and Earth, they were not their focus at all.
