Li Hao's obsequious attitude made Zhong Ziqi and the other man somewhat disdain him.

For a moment, she had no mind to nitpick about Yin Tianzi's minor faults, and instead looked at Li Hao, feeling a bit disgusted with him.

The once stern and demanding general has now transformed into a servile and obsequious scoundrel.

In fact.

Li Hao's expression showed that he was at ease.

Doggate can finally have some peace and quiet for a long time to come!

Therefore, Li Hao was happy to joke around with these powerful individuals and try to build a closer relationship with them.

after all.

This isn't a battlefield!

"No need, I'm perfectly fine with him!" Wuchang pointed at Yin Tianzi Su Feng and said in a deep voice.

It doesn't look like a joke at all.

Su Feng took the opportunity to get closer to Wuchang.

The moment they got close, Wuchang's eyes became much brighter!

It seems that he shared the spiritual power of the Underworld Emperor.

......

Snake Gate.

The entire Serpent Gate was extremely dark.

but.

That terrifying, overwhelming aura finally disappeared.

The serpent god Yujingzi regained his calm and collected demeanor, stepping into the void as he slowly walked towards his palace.

His dark green royal robe was stained with some blood.

It is clear that a fierce battle had taken place.

However, there was no sign of anything amiss on Yujingzi's face.

It was as if he was fighting five against one, and he never lost in this battle.

Only after she returned to her palace did a trickle of bright red blood slowly flow from the corner of Yujingzi's mouth.

Yu Jingzi sat on his throne and exhaled a long breath.

He had long since entered a state of blissful clarity, but this breath of turbid air showed that he was truly injured!

And the injuries are quite serious!

Many of the palace guards cast their gazes toward Yujingzi on the throne.

But Yu Jingzi didn't say anything, and they didn't dare to care.

After a long while, Yu Jingzi slowly spoke, "Has news come from the Dog Gate?"

How are they?

One of the guards stepped forward immediately.

He knelt on one knee, the armor striking the ground with a crisp sound.

"Your Majesty, there has been no news from the Dog Gate yet!"

"However, General Mu Yan has already gone to investigate personally, and I believe news will come back soon!"

After the guard finished speaking, he added, "Your Majesty, are you sure your injury is alright?"

"Should I fetch the imperial physician for you?"

Yu Jingzi glanced at the guard and shook her head. "No need, you may all leave!"

"By the way, send a message to the Minister of Defense in Kyoto that I will be in seclusion for three days. Ask them to keep an eye on the movements of the Dog Gate!"

"We can leave the Serpent Gate area alone for now!"

"...obey the king's decree!"

......

Kyoto.

With someone's doppelganger protecting him, Vice Minister of National Defense Li Hao arrived in Kyoto once again.

only.

Li Hao had just arrived in Kyoto this time and had not yet taken the initiative to communicate.

The voice of the dog god slowly drifted over from afar.

"Your purpose in coming here is to inquire about the details of that fickle person, and whether he is trustworthy?"

Li Hao was taken aback, then nodded slightly.

"This person was introduced by the King of the Underworld."

"The Yin Emperor is undoubtedly trustworthy. The myriad races will not exchange the lives of twenty half-saints for our trust in one half-saint."

"Moreover, the Dog God has already passed on the supreme sword technique to him, so the Underworld Emperor can be completely trusted."

"However, I really can't figure out the details of this Wuchang subordinate!"

"If we cannot trust them, we ask the Rat God to resolve this matter."

"If he can be trusted, I request the Rat God to appoint Wuchang as the new Dog God!"

Li Hao spoke firmly.

Now that the Dog God is in seclusion, the human race urgently needs a new Dog God to take office!

In this way, not only can the area around the dog gate return to normal, but the public and low-level martial artists will also be greatly encouraged!

One of the dog gods went into seclusion, and immediately another expert of the same level took his place!

This is enough to demonstrate the profound cultural heritage of our Chinese nation!

"Aren't you afraid that Wulong will cause you trouble afterward?"

“He merely initiated a rather dangerous retreat, yet you petitioned to have his priesthood revoked.”

"If he comes out of seclusion, he might be petty." The Rat God's voice was long and kind, reaching Li Hao's ears.

Li Hao gritted his teeth and pondered, "But right now, the Dog Gate really needs a new Dog God to take charge!"

"The impermanence of the Saint Realm is just right!"

"Please, Dog God, grant him a test. If he passes, it will be a great blessing for our human race!"

"As for the misunderstanding... I'll explain my predicament to him afterward!"

"If Wulong still holds a grudge, then I'll just give him my life!"

"Humanity...truly needs a new Dog God!"

Li Hao's tone was firm; he was on the front lines, and even the highest commander of the Dog Gate.

He knew perfectly well what the strongest humans needed most right now!

He's the backbone! He's the one who makes the decisions!

Although the Serpent God Yujingzi was always there, what happened when the phantom of the Heavenly Demon Emperor descended?

He also failed to appear at the dog gate!

Therefore, the strong among the human race need a backbone who can guard the dog gate and communicate with the strongest!

Can Li Hao be the backbone of this team?

Judging from qualifications, age, and position, it's perfectly acceptable!

But in terms of strength alone...

Almost there!

Li Hao is quite capable; how could he be incompetent to be appointed as the Vice Minister of National Defense?

He can even fight three half-saints single-handedly without being at a disadvantage!

With this kind of strength, he would definitely rank in the top five among the semi-saint level experts in the country!
