5: The parliament has paid attention to the Nine-Star War God Xu Yi!
After receiving Xu Yi’s promise, Vice General Wu Ze took a deep breath.
He slowly began to reveal the truth of the matter.
He recounted how he and General Yang Xiong colluded with the fierce beasts.
They conspired to transmit false information to harm Xu Yi, and how he bribed the scouts.
Additionally, he never went to support them, yet he spread rumors that Xu Yi had unfortunately fallen.
As Vice General Wu Ze recounted his story with a pained expression, the shock on the faces of the surrounding martial artists grew more intense.
Their eyes widened, and their mouths slightly agape!
They finally understood the truth of the matter.
No wonder Xu Yi was so furious when he came to kill General Yang Xiong!
“The truth… it was like this?!”
“Ambushed and fighting for several days without support, how desperate General Xu and those nearly 100,000 martial artist brothers must have been.”
“You beasts! How could you be so vicious!”
“.........”
All the martial artists within the Defense Line clenched their fists, unable to stop themselves from cursing.
As Xu Yi listened to Vice General Wu Ze’s confession, his gaze grew even colder, like the biting wind of winter!
After Vice General Wu Ze finished his desperate narration, the hand he used to grip Vice General Wu Ze’s head tightened slightly.
A sound of bones cracking was heard.
Vice General Wu Ze’s headless corpse began to fall downwards, finally hitting the ground with a “thud.”
Immediately after,
“Boom!”
A bolt of lightning struck down from the overcast sky, reducing his corpse to black ashes, as if to console the spirits of the nearly 100,000 soldiers in heaven.
Xu Yi, who had killed the two masterminds, felt some relief, but his anger had not completely subsided.
Looking at the martial artists below, who were discussing in shock, he instinctively sensed that not everyone had defected to the fierce beasts.
Then, with a wave of his hand, he dispersed the dark clouds in the sky and reined in his internal pressure.
He began to take over the command of the Central Defense Line.
“From now on, this Emperor will personally investigate the traitors and spies within the Defense Line who have colluded with the fierce beasts; anyone who tries to escape or resist will be considered an accomplice!” Xu Yi said, his voice laced with bone-chilling coldness.
As he spoke, his powerful Martial Emperor perception had already covered the entire Central Defense Line base.
Once he detected anyone attempting to flee, he would immediately kill them!
Then, Xu Yi’s figure flickered, and he descended to the ground.
He began his investigation from the spatial ring on General Yang Xiong’s finger, and quickly found a breakthrough…
As time passed, from noon to dusk, several hours went by.
Xu Yi used various methods to capture all a dozen of General Yang Xiong’s trusted Generals, from low-ranking to high-ranking, who had colluded with the fierce beasts within the Central Defense Line!
And he had already reported the matter to the strongest organization managing the entire Great Xia Country.
It was the “Council” composed of the country’s nine strongest Martial Emperors and two Martial Gods.
Currently, these traitors have been apprehended and are being prepared to be handed over to the Judgment Headquarters for trial.
They shouldn't be allowed to die so easily!
At the same time, after receiving Xu Yi’s report, the Great Xia Country Council swiftly convened an online virtual meeting in the conference hall of the Council Headquarters building in the Imperial Capital!
Holographic projections of all nine Martial Emperors of the country were present.
Even more astonishing was that the two Martial Gods, rarely seen in person, also appeared in the meeting!
Although only a holographic projection was present, they exuded the majesty of a superior being!
All Council members were present, which showed the importance everyone attached to Xu Yi, who had “returned from the dead” and broken through to the Martial Emperor realm!
Seated at the head of the table was a benevolent-looking elder, none other than Council Head Councilor Wei Huai, one of the two Martial Gods of the Great Xia Country, whose cultivation had reached the peak Martial God realm!
Looking at the nine Martial Emperor Councilors who were already present, he knew that everyone had gathered here from their busy schedules, so he did not waste much time on pleasantries.
With a faint smile on his face, he lightly coughed.
“Ahem…”
“Everyone, please share your thoughts on this matter.”
As Councilor Wei Huai’s voice, which sounded somewhat aged yet warm as a spring breeze, slowly faded, a brief silence fell over the conference room.
Then, a middle-aged Martial Emperor with a sinister face, eyes as deep as an abyss, and a high, slightly aquiline nose, was the first to break the silence.
A cold smile played on his lips as he said in a low voice,
“General General Yang Xiong colluded with fierce beasts, causing nearly 100,000 of our brave soldiers to perish on the battlefield, and General Xu Yi almost lost his life at his hands; this constitutes treason!”
“Such crimes are too numerous to list and deserve death.”
He paused, then swept his gaze around and continued,
“General Xu Yi’s ability to execute him on the spot is truly a great achievement.”
“Furthermore, in a desperate situation, he did not succumb but instead unleashed immense martial artist potential, breaking through to the Martial Emperor realm in one go, adding another Martial Emperor to our Great Xia Country.”
“Such talent and perseverance are truly a blessing for our Great Xia Country. According to the Council’s rules, Xu Yi already possesses the qualifications to serve as a Councilor!”
“I propose promoting Xu Yi’s military rank to Nine Star God of War. Coincidentally, the position of Mobei Province Defense Envoy has been vacant for many years due to the unfortunate demise of Councilor Gu. We might as well take advantage of this opportunity to promote his position from General to Defense Envoy to fill this important vacancy.”
At these words, the conference room immediately echoed with sounds of agreement.
“I agree!”
“I also agree. Xu Yi escaped death and broke through to the Martial Emperor realm, slaying the traitors General Yang Xiong and Vice General Wu Ze; he should indeed be rewarded!”
“After several decades, another Martial Emperor strongman has emerged among our generation. This is truly a blessing for our Great Xia Country, hahaha…”
Everyone’s faces were beaming with genuine joy, and they all nodded in agreement, with no one raising any objections.
Currently, the relationship between humans and fierce beasts is increasingly tense.
A full-scale war could break out at any time!
Xu Yi’s breakthrough undoubtedly injected a strong dose of confidence into everyone, alleviating a lot of pressure.
Especially for the defense of Mobei Province, it was like a timely help in desperate need…
Councilor Wei Huai, seated at the head, exchanged a smile with the other Martial God, a hint of relief flashing in their eyes.
Seeing that everyone was in agreement and no one objected, Councilor Wei Huai said in a very gentle voice,
“Since all of you have no objections, then I shall finalize this matter.”
“General Xu Yi of Mobei Province will become our Council’s tenth Councilor, and at the same time, he will be granted the Nine Star God of War military rank and officially appointed as the Mobei Province Defense Envoy, taking command of all armies in Mobei Province…”
Then, Councilor Wei Huai, with a joyful smile on his aged face, turned to Councilor Yan He, the solemn-faced General Zhenbei, who was closest to Xu Yi’s current location in eastern Mobei Province and had first proposed this suggestion.
He instructed,
“Councilor Yan, I will trouble you to personally make a trip to Mobei Province and inform Councilor Xu of these appointments.”
This was to demonstrate the Council’s Pay attention to of Xu Yi, the Great Xia Country’s tenth Councilor.
Yan He’s eyes flashed with respect upon hearing this.
He quickly stood up and said in a deep voice, “As you command, Elder Wei, I shall depart immediately…”
After speaking, Yan He bowed slightly and prepared to leave the room.
As Councilor Wei Huai announced the end of the meeting, the holographic projections in the conference room extinguished one by one, and the Councilors departed, leaving behind only hasty farewells.
Meanwhile, Yan He, stationed in Heishui Province in northern Great Xia Country and holding the position of General Zhenbei, quickly sprang into action.
After preparing the appointment letter and other items, he boarded an SSS-level warplane, soaring through the clouds towards Mobei Province, ready to announce the Council’s series of appointments to Xu Yi.
