Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7314
Chapter 7228: Wait a minute!
“The Demon-Slaying Army belongs to the Heavenly Emperor Sect, not a private army!”
Many commanders of tens of thousands and thousands were moved to tears.
In truth, the lower-ranking Demon-Slaying Army gained little from the Great War God’s struggle; being forced to choose sides was merely a survival tactic under the circumstances.
Now, with the Supreme Emperor Ancestor’s appointment and excellent conditions, the upright and loyal Li Tianming could follow.
For most, this was a blessing!
However, not everyone shared this sentiment.
Some who had previously gone to great lengths to follow Yu Mo now felt betrayed.
But they dared not speak aloud, merely observing Li Tianming privately and whispering amongst themselves.
“We thought following Yu Mo would bring us many benefits, but it turns out she’s just a coward.”
“No matter how arrogant Li Tianming is, he has offended the Li imperial family. What’s the point of following someone who’s going to die sooner or later?”
“If Yu Mo hadn’t surrendered first, we could have waited until that day to follow her and fight for the War God. Now that she’s so weak, don’t blame us…”
These people couldn’t understand Yu Mo’s choice at all, and they were secretly considering whether to remain loyal to Li Tianming or Yu Mo.
Of course, these little movements didn’t escape Li Tianming’s notice.
However, he didn’t care.
Trying to change these people’s opinions was too time-consuming and laborious, unnecessary!
Besides, they couldn’t cause any trouble.
Previously, the old subordinates of Jiu Yang, who had been trembling and kneeling before Li Tianming, were worried that Li Tianming would purge them.
And just as they were feeling uneasy, Li Tianming’s gaze indeed fell on them.
“God of War Li, we know we were wrong. We never did anything so despicable when working with Jiuyang before. We really didn’t know anything about this.”
“There have always been some brave and fierce people in the army. Over the years, we brothers haven’t done anything too bad. Can you spare our lives?”
This part of Jiuyang’s old subordinates all begged for mercy.
Li Tianming smiled slightly and said, “Whether you have committed a serious crime or not, I will judge for myself. Whether you want to follow me or have other ideas, I don’t care! However, if I find out about the mistakes you’ve made in the past, don’t blame me for being impolite.”
This part of the Demon Extinction Army trembled at the same time, and they were already drenched in sweat!
After all, they still vividly remembered the scene of Jiuyang driving the beast tide!
So they were still a little afraid!
After all, who is without fault?
But those who were truly innocent or had committed minor crimes breathed a sigh of relief.
This meant that Li Tianming would not convict everyone at once, nor would he choose to kill the innocent indiscriminately!
Those Demon Extinction Army soldiers who were inherently bad and had secretly committed some things that could be punished with serious crimes, although they lowered their heads at this moment, their expressions were full of gloom.
Even some stood silently in the distance, completely disagreeing with Li Tianming’s idea.
After all, Wei Qingyu hadn’t handed over the boundary core yet!
This was the last chance for those who hadn’t yet chosen Li Tianming to observe!
In an instant, everyone around, regardless of their stance, looked at Wei Qingyu.
Now, Li Tianming held two portions of the Demon-Slaying Boundary Core, and only Wei Qingyu’s portion remained, enough to completely restore the complete Demon-Slaying Boundary Core controlled by the Great War God!
“Only the Great War God Wei is left; if he returns the boundary core, everything will be perfect.”
“This thousand-year-long battle between the Great War Gods is finally coming to an end…”
It seemed that the vast majority of people had already accepted that Wei Qingyu would return the last Dao Array Boundary Core.
However…
at this moment, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Wei Qingyu suddenly smiled. He said with a hearty smile, “Great War God Li, it’s not that I’m unwilling to return the Demon-Slaying Boundary Core, but my portion of the Demon-Slaying Boundary Core has recently encountered a problem and needs repair…”
At this moment, countless members of the Demon-Slaying Army widened their eyes, feeling utterly incredulous!
“When did the Demon-Slaying Realm Core ever need repair?”
“Last time, it was an excuse that War God Li couldn’t control it, which at least had some merit. But this time, it’s a completely unreasonable reason.”
“Even if the Dao Array almost collapsed just now, it wouldn’t have damaged the Dao Array except for hurting us. How could something of this level break so easily?”
“Could it be that he still has some reliance on, wanting to continue fighting against War God Li?”
Someone suddenly wondered.
In fact, this was the only possibility everyone could think of. The probability of the Dao Array Core having a problem was even lower than the probability of a Heavenly Venerable smashing a small light-year Dao Treasure with his bare hands!
This result made Li Tianming raise an eyebrow slightly, somewhat surprised.
After a while, he also smiled and said, “Then when will Vice General Wei be able to repair it?”
“At least a few years. The Dao Array Core of this level is not so easy to repair…” Wei Qingyu said with a smile.
This surprised Li Tianming even more. He actually saw a look of wanting to confront him head-on in Wei Qingyu’s expression.
Originally, he thought Wei Qingyu would give in.
“Why is this flower-watering guy so arrogant? What’s he relying on?” Sui Shenyao asked in surprise.
“Yaoyao, why are you calling him a flower-watering guy?” Aurora asked, not caring about his arrogance, but puzzled.
“He cultivates so many Dao plants, isn’t he just a flower-watering guy? These living beings and imperial clans are all flower-watering guys, why not treasure a little bit of Xixi?” Sui Shenyao snorted.
Aurora was both amused and exasperated.
At this moment, compared to the relaxed tone of the voice in Li Tianming’s ear, the atmosphere in the entire Demon Extinction Army was anything but relaxed.
Yu Mo, the first deputy general to surrender, angrily pointed at Wei Qingyu.
“War God Li has already forgiven us, what else are you dissatisfied with? Don’t you understand? Following War God Li, we will only live better than we did when we fought tooth and nail!” Yu Mo said with a hint of annoyance.
At this time, Li Tianming’s position was basically confirmed, and the seven border generals were more openly biased towards Li Tianming.
Qin Kuang was the first to rebuke, completely disregarding the deputy general’s status.
He said, “I’ve put up with you for a long time. You always wear that stinky fake smile, even though Dao Zhi is reluctant to give his all on the battlefield to reduce the casualties among our brothers. Now that War God Li is giving you face, you still dare to take advantage of it?”
The contrast between Li Tianming and Wei Qingyu became even more stark.
Judging from his fighting style, Li Tianming never cared about the consumption of evil spirits; in fact, he lost hundreds of millions of evil spirits in the battle to defend the city!
Of course, the others were unaware of the secrets behind Li Tianming’s abilities; they only saw how hard he was fighting the beast tide.
“Wait!”
At this moment, Li Tianming stood between Yu Mo and the others and Wei Qingyu, stopping their conversation!
