In the Six Heavenly Kings’ Palaces, the rankings of the six ancestors suddenly shattered.
This was a bolt from the blue for the six Heavenly King Palaces. Their ancestor was a cultivator at the level of Immortal Emperor. How could he die just like that?
Moreover, judging from the images they had seen, their respective ancestors had died miserably, having their vitality and souls sucked away by a young man.
The current six heavenly kings were so frightened that they rushed to Wang Tianyu in a hurry. This matter was too serious and they had to report it to Zong Zhengsong in person.
In the majestic Heavenly Palace, in the court, Zong Zhengsong sat high on the throne, his aura of a superior emanating unreservedly.
The six heavenly kings stood in a row in the main hall, all with sad faces, crying their heads off.
"Please, Your Majesty, please help me!"
"The appearance of such evildoers in the Heavenly Realm who do not take Heaven seriously must not be tolerated!"
"Your Majesty, the old ancestor died in such a tragic way!"
"Your Majesty, please send someone to kill this boy!"
Zong Zhengsong looked expressionlessly at the six people crying in agony. After they had cried enough, he said coldly, "The six uncles are all masters of the Immortal Emperor level. How could they die so easily at the hands of others?
Is there a traitor in one of your six families?"
The six people in front of the hall were not fools, so how could they not understand what Zong Zhengsong meant?
It's obvious that they want to purge these six families under the pretext of purging traitors!
"Your Majesty, there are no traitors among our six families!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, our six families are united because of the fire dragon that appeared between the Heavenly Realm and the Great Wilderness. This fire dragon has been entrenched between the Heavenly Realm and the Great Wilderness for a hundred years, preventing the people of the Heavenly Realm from successfully breaking through it and opening up territory in the Great Wilderness. Therefore, our Liu family joined forces to eliminate this fire dragon and clear the way for Your Majesty to enter the Great Wilderness."
"Yes, Your Majesty, our six families' loyalty to you is evident to all!"
"Your Majesty, there really is no traitor in our family!"
The entire court, both civil and military, sensed that the Emperor's mood might be a little off today, so no one interrupted. They all stood at attention, their eyes fixed on the situation, their noses focused on the situation.
Although most of the people in this room had benefited from the Six Heavenly Kings, most of their strength was lost in the Heavenly Realm a hundred years ago, and now the six ancestors have also fallen.
The heirs of the six Heavenly King Palaces are getting weaker with each generation, and it seems that they are going to be completely ruined. Looking at the attitude of His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor, he definitely wants to take the opportunity to eliminate these six families. Maybe... maybe the person who sent people to kill the ancestors of the six families is His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor.
There was no way. In the entire Heaven Realm, only the one sitting on the throne had unfathomable cultivation. If it were anyone else, they really couldn't imagine who had the ability to capture all six Immortal Emperor-level cultivators in one fell swoop.
The six heavenly kings were in a state of confusion at the moment. They tried to signal to the dignitaries and ministers with whom they were on good terms, but they didn't even look at them.
In the hall, in front of His Majesty the Immortal Emperor, they didn't dare to even glance at each other, which was really frustrating.
Zong Zhengsong sneered, "I have no intention of giving you six families any instructions to help me slay the dragon and pave the way!
I think the six of you have forgotten who the Lord of the Heavenly Realm is. It seems that I have been too indulgent towards the six of you Heavenly Kings Palaces over the years...
Not only do you dare to presume to speculate on the emperor's will, but you also dare to use the pretext of working for me to pursue your own selfish desires!
According to what you said, the death of your six ancestors is still my fault!"
Zong Zhengsong's words were calm, but they were like thunder in the ears of the Six Heavenly Kings.
They immediately knelt down and kowtowed, their bodies shaking with fear.
Their python robes were already soaked with sweat, and several of them looked as if they had just been fished out of the river.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, we did not mean that!"
"Your Majesty, please spare my life. I dare not even entertain such treasonous thoughts!"
"Your Majesty, we are worried that this person will endanger the foundation of the Heavenly Realm, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, I..." Before King Yi could finish his words, his eyes rolled back and he fainted from fright.
All the civil and military officials in the court looked at him with contempt. With such an heir, the Six Heavenly Kings' Palace was doomed to fall into decline.
However, the collapse of the six heavenly palaces actually brought them many benefits. After all, with the elimination of six giants that occupied most of the power and resources in the heavenly realm, it meant that the power and resources under their names had to be redistributed.
They are not good at helping someone when he is in trouble, but they are good at kicking the can down on someone when he is down.
Immediately, a minister stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the six kings harbored evil intentions. After their failure, they actually blamed Your Majesty for the cause. This is truly despicable! Your Majesty, please punish them severely as a warning to others!"
"Your Majesty, the Heavenly Realm belongs to you alone, not to the Six Heavenly Kings! The Six Heavenly Kings are so arrogant and self-righteous that they have been tyrannical and oppressive in the Heavenly Realm for a long time. Your Majesty, mindful of the six ancestors' contributions to the Emperor, has shown great indulgence towards them. However, they have failed to appreciate His Majesty's grace and have forgotten who the Lord of the Heavenly Realm truly is!"
"Your Majesty, the Six Heavenly Kings' Palaces harbor evil intentions and secretly went to slay the dragon. Their purpose is clear at a glance.
They simply want to take over the Great Wilderness before Your Majesty does, so that they can compete with Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, people with such evil ambitions must have their families confiscated and their clans exterminated. This will serve as a deterrent to others with ulterior motives!"
"Yes, Your Majesty is kind and benevolent, but now these six people are taking advantage of your kindness and doing evil. I beg Your Majesty to confiscate their property and exterminate their clans!"
…
The six Heavenly Kings were stunned upon hearing this. These people had always benefited from them. They had previously pretended not to see the six people's pleading eyes and not come out to speak up for them, but now they were stepping in to add insult to injury. Each one was running away faster than the last, and everyone in the court stood up in unison.
The key is what's going on with those people behind this? It's fine if you're demanding severe punishment, but what's the point of clamoring for the confiscation of property and the extermination of the entire clan?
Damn it, it’s been more than a million years, and the benefits given to these people can fill up several cities!
But they are just a bunch of wild dogs who can’t be fed enough and will turn around and eat you when you are weak.
The six of them were completely despairing. They should have thought of this earlier, right? After the ancestor's death, the Emperor of Heaven no longer had any scruples and could do whatever he wanted to them!
And among all the civil and military officials in the court, which one of them was not glaring covetously, with green light in their eyes, and couldn't wait to pounce on them and tear their flesh?
The six people stopped shaking at this moment, because they were so terrified that they fainted.
They all fainted!
"I hereby declare that the six great kings are plotting rebellion... their entire families shall be executed, and all nine clans shall be exterminated!
A hunting order has been issued, and a reward of tens of millions of high-grade immortal crystals is offered for the head of the person in the video!
Whoever kills the second son will be made a great general!"
Zong Zhengsong's cold words echoed in the hall, and he directly accused the Six Heavenly Kings of treason.
Poor Six Heavenly Kings, if they hadn’t rushed to the Heaven to cry, they would probably have lived a few more days.
