Great Immortal with Boundless Mana

Chapter 978 Machiavellian Strategy
At the bluestone square, Taoist masters including Wuji, Tianzhu, Jiuyin, Changzhen, Xuanyang and Huikong have all arrived.

The conversation between Gao Xian and Xuanming Tianjun also attracted the attention of the Taoist masters.

Hearing Gao Xian speak so directly and firmly, the three Taoist masters Tianzhu, Jiuyin and Changzhen all showed surprise on their faces.

They knew that Gao Xian and Wan Bao were at odds, and they also knew that Gao Xian and Xuan Ming Tian Jun had conflicts. But no one expected that Gao Xian would be so tough and teach the other party a lesson in front of Xuan Ming Tian Jun.

Although this place is within the territory of Jiuzhou, Gao Xian is too arrogant and disrespectful to treat a seventh-rank Heavenly Monarch in this way.

Of course, Xuanming Tianjun also asked for it. Gao Xian had been very polite before, but this seventh-level person was arrogant and used his spiritual sense to suppress Gao Xian, which was tantamount to active provocation.

Xuanming Tianjun was proud of his status and would not argue with Gao Xian. He just pretended not to hear and entered Taiyi Palace first.

Wanbao Daozun glanced at Gao Xian. Gao Xian's strength made him feel a little uneasy. How could this kid dare to be so rude to Xuanming Tianjun? What confidence did he have?
He couldn't figure it out for a moment and could only hurriedly catch up with Xuanming Tianjun.

Gao Xian ignored Wan Bao and Xuan Ming. He smiled and greeted the Taoist masters.

Xuan Yang and Wu Ji have a close relationship, so Gao Xian naturally wants to talk to them and say hello first.

Next are the Taoist masters Huikong, Jiuyin, Tianzhu and Changzhen.

Monk Huikong didn't say much, but said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I can't stand on your side this time."

The old monk did not explain anything. No matter what the reason was, he gave up supporting Gao Xian this time.

Gao Xian didn't think it was a big deal, as the old monk didn't owe him anything.

Even Xuanming Tianjun went to Taiyi Palace in person, which shows that the other party is well prepared this time.

He was just a little confused. Xuanming, Wanbao and the others didn't consider Ninth Master's opinion?

People who have lived for tens of thousands of years would not make such a big mistake. They must have been sure that Jiuzhou Ding would not interfere.

However, Gao Xian was also very sure that Jiuzhou Ding's intention was to help him solve these troubles.

As a powerful ninth-level warrior, there is no need to lie to him about such a small matter.

Even if Wanbao couldn't be killed this time, there would be no loss, and Wanbao couldn't do anything to him. For Jiuzhou Ding, Wanbao's survival was the real trouble.

Wuji Jianzun and several Daozun entered Taiyi Hall first, and Xuanyang Laodao stayed last. He said to Gao Xian, "Xuanming came here in person, so he might have some tricks. Don't lose your sense of proportion."

"Don't worry, Master. I won't argue with him." Gao Xian replied with a smile.

Taoist Xuan Yang laughed in silence: "You..."

Tai Ning and Qing Le followed behind Taoist Xuan Yang, and the two beauties stared at Gao Xian. When the Grandmaster and Gao Xian were talking, they couldn't hear what the two sides were saying, and even if they heard it, it was not their turn to interrupt.

Gao Xian joked with Taoist Xuan Yang for a while, then nodded to Tai Ning and Qing Le, but it was not convenient to reminisce and chat with them at this moment.

After entering the hall, Gao Xian went over to greet Jiuzhou Ding first.

Many Dao Masters were watching, so Gao Xian didn't dare to ask about the details of the Jiuzhou Ding. He just exchanged glances with this Ninth Master.

There was a coldness in the Nineth Master's azure-gold eyes, without any emotion. However, Gao Xian still saw a very clear affirmation in the Nineth Master's eyes, indicating that this time things would go according to plan.

In fact, with the ability of Jiuzhou Ding, no one can detect it even if it uses spiritual consciousness to transmit sound. It's just that this person is disdainful of it.

Gao Xian's heart calmed down. He could afford to lose this time, but he didn't want to lose! He just wanted to kill Wan Bao!
After a while, Daohong Daozun also arrived with Zhizhen and Hefeng.

Daohong Daozun went up to greet Jiuzhou Ding, and several Daozuns also came over to greet him one by one. After all, Daohong Daozun was the first pure Yang in Jiuzhou, and his prestige was extremely high. Even Wanbao was very respectful to Daohong.

Xuanming Tianjun came over and took the initiative to greet him: "Brother, it's been ten thousand years since we last met."

"Yes, it has been ten thousand years since we last saw Ziqi Island."

Dao Hong Dao Zun looked into Xuan Ming's deep and cold eyes. He pondered for a moment and said, "Tian Jun, I have a suggestion. How about both sides take a step back and call it a day?"

"Brother, it's not that I don't give you face, it's just that Gao Xian is so arrogant that he has forced Wan Bao into a corner."

Xuanming Tianjun said in a deep voice: "Senior Brother, please don't worry about this matter."

Dao Hong Dao Zun sighed: "It's me who is meddling."

Xuanming Tianjun didn't say anything else. He had been preparing for this matter for hundreds of years. Not to mention Dao Hong, even Dongji Tianjun couldn't do it. This old Taoist has been in Jiuzhou for too long, and his mind is not clear!
Gao Xian looked at Dao Hong Dao Jun and sighed helplessly, and he knew that this man and Xuan Ming had failed to reach an agreement.

This is normal. Daohong has a big picture view and wants the human cultivators to unite, but Xuanming doesn't have this awareness. But it's a good thing for him, at least it can make Daohong face reality.

How could these Heavenly Kings outside of Jiuzhou take the cultivators from Jiuzhou seriously!

"I have called you all here to discuss an important matter." Jiuzhou Ding spoke, his voice like a loud bell or drum, echoing endlessly in the ancient and heavy hall.

All the sixth-level Pure Yang, including the seventh-level Xuanming Tianjun, looked solemn and did not dare to show any disrespect.

"Wan Bao used the Yuanzhou Order to control the Jiuzhou Law Domain to suppress Gao Xian and help outsiders to ambush and kill Gao Xian."

Jiuzhou Ding didn't use any politeness or transitions, he went straight to the point.

"According to the rules, the Nine Provinces' commanders are not allowed to attack each other privately. Wan Bao broke the rules and should be executed."

When Wanbao Daozun heard these words below, his eyes couldn't help but focus, and then he turned to look at Xuanming Tianjun next to him.

Xuanming Tianjun lowered his eyes slightly with an indifferent expression and ignored Wanbao.

Jiuzhou Ding looked at Dao Hong Dao Zun and the others, and asked, "What do you think?"

Without waiting for Dao Hong to speak, Wan Bao stepped forward and said, "Nine Heavenly King, Gao Xian and I just had a little friction, and I don't want to kill Gao Xian. Please understand, Nine Heavenly King."

"Are you against your own execution?" asked the Ninth Heavenly King.

Wanbao Daozun thought the question was ridiculous. He said without hesitation, "Of course I object."

Tianzhu Daozun also stood up and said, "I object too."

Jiuyin Daozun, Huikong, and Changzhen also stood up and clearly expressed their opposition.

So far, five of the nine Dao Masters have clearly expressed their opposition.

Daohong, Wuji, and Xuanyang remained silent. With more than half of the other party's troops, it would be meaningless for them to express their opinions.

Jiuzhou Ding did not give up. He asked Daohong, Wuji, Xuanyang and Gaoxian for their opinions one by one.

Although Daohong and his friends felt that it was meaningless, they still clearly agreed to execute Wanbao. This was mainly to express their support for Gaoxian.

Jiuzhou Ding said: "Four against four, according to the rules, Gao Xian and Wan Bao will enter the Xuanhuang Stage to fight to the death and determine who is right and wrong."

"Nine Heavenly Kings, it's clearly five to four, how can it be four to four?!"

Wanbao Daozun was horrified. He didn't want to fight with Gao Xian. He and Bei Ming had similar cultivation levels. Gao Xian could have easily killed Bei Ming four hundred years ago.

Four hundred years have passed, and even if Gao Xian has made no progress in his cultivation, he is still no match for Gao Xian.

Jiuzhou Ding said without any emotion: "You have made a big mistake. You are not qualified to be in charge of Yuanzhou Order, nor are you qualified to participate in the vote."

"Then why did you ask me that just now?" Wanbao Daozun was even more puzzled.

Jiuzhou Ding looked at Wanbao Daozun and said calmly: "I hope you can plead guilty. You don't repent and don't want to be decent. I can only deal with it impartially."

Taoist Wanbao was both shocked and angry. Jiuzhou Ding was determined to kill him!
He shouted loudly: "Nine Heavenly King, according to the rules you are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the human race in Jiuzhou!"

"According to the rules, if you can't handle it, you have to hand it over to me." Jiuzhou Ding explained calmly.

Wanbao Daozun felt a chill in his heart. He could only look at Xuanming Tianjun beside him. If this man didn't speak, he would die!

Xuanming Tianjun could no longer remain silent. He bowed to Jiuzhou Ding and said, "Jiu Tianwang, let me say something..."

Jiuzhou Ding didn't even look at Xuanming Tianjun. He said directly: "Jiuzhou's commanders discuss important matters together. Outsiders have no right to speak."

Jiuzhou Ding did not deliberately stimulate his spiritual consciousness, but his heavy and majestic aura made Xuanming Tianjun feel depressed.

This seventh-rank Heavenly Monarch swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth...

Gao Xian couldn't help but smile. Uncle Jiu is Uncle Jiu, he did a great job!

If the other party wants to play tricks, Uncle Jiu will let them play to their heart's content. When they succeed, he will overthrow them gently and let them fall into the abyss of despair!
Wan Bao and Xuan Ming really thought too much when they wanted to control Jiuzhou Ding with rules...

With a loud rumbling sound, a platform rose in the center of the hall, and Gao Xian and Wan Bao Dao Zun were right in the center of the platform.

Countless runes formed a magic barrier around the platform, isolating other people from outside.

Gao Xian bowed to Wanbao Daozun and said, "Daoyou, today we are going to decide life and death and right and wrong. Please!"

Wanbao Daozun didn't say anything. His eyes were filled with despair and helplessness, and even a bit of weakness...
