Chapter 1207 General Xiang, Suffering Great Torture
After a brief silence, the powerful figures hidden in the shadows were in complete uproar!
"Did I hear that right? What did he say? Give the Formless Holy Emperor some face? My god!"
"Does he mean that he knows His Majesty the Holy Emperor of the Formless Divine Kingdom? And that their relationship is quite close?"
"How is this possible! What kind of being is His Majesty the Holy Emperor? How could he have a relationship with such a powerful figure of unknown origin?"
"No! He's not joking! Look at him, he doesn't seem to be bragging at all! Could it be... that he really is His Majesty the Holy Emperor's friend?"
"Hiss! If it's true, then the Shangguan family has really stirred up a hornet's nest this time! They haven't just provoked a powerful figure, but rather a distinguished guest of His Majesty the Holy Emperor!"
Countless divine thoughts were frantically communicating in the void, and everyone was stunned by this earth-shattering news.
Upon hearing these words, General Xiang's previous thought, which he dared not delve into, became incredibly clear!
That's it!
So that’s it!
His Majesty didn't send him here to gain merit; His Majesty sent him to pack up these four idiots and deliver them to this Senior Ye Chen for disposal!
How could I be a general stationed on the frontier?
He was clearly an executioner's adjutant responsible for escorting death row inmates!
Once he understood this, the cold sweat on General Xiang's back instantly turned into hot sweat.
He felt as if he had just walked through the gates of hell and been pulled back by force.
He got it!
He finally understood His Majesty's profound meaning!
His Majesty is using Ye Chen to warn, or even eliminate, the Shangguan family!
If I had dared to show even the slightest intention to stand up for the Shangguan family just now, I would probably be a cold corpse by now!
General Xiang quietly and imperceptibly moved half a step to the side, demonstrating his stance through his actions.
The fate of the Shangguan family is none of my business!
Upon hearing Ye Chen's words, the four members of the Shangguan family were plunged into utter despair.
Give the Holy Emperor some face?
These words shattered the last shred of hope in their hearts.
They originally thought that no matter how strong Ye Chen was, he was still within the territory of the Formless Divine Kingdom, and should at least take into account the majesty of His Majesty the Holy Emperor.
But now it seems that they weren't showing any consideration at all; they were simply doing someone a favor!
This means that even if Ye Chen kills them all here today, His Majesty the Holy Emperor will most likely not pursue the matter!
Begging for mercy is useless; the background is invalid!
When all paths are blocked, extreme despair begins to fuel a frenzied rage.
You can't kill us!
Shangguan Qing suddenly stood up from the ground. He wiped away his tears, his old face twisted and deformed by extreme anger and fear, making him look particularly ferocious.
"I admit you're very strong! Stronger than we can imagine! But don't forget where you are!"
He roared at the top of his lungs.
"This is the Formless Divine Kingdom! The four of us are all important ministers appointed by the Divine Kingdom! We are blessed by the Divine Kingdom's fortune!"
"Killing us means you are making an enemy of the entire Formless Divine Kingdom! It means you are openly challenging the majesty of His Majesty the Holy Emperor!"
Shangguan Yan also shouted, his voice filled with bluster but his heart was filled with fear: "That's right! We are ministers of the Divine Kingdom! To kill a minister of the Divine Kingdom is tantamount to treason! His Majesty the Holy Emperor will absolutely not let you off!"
Their voices echoed through the starry sky, filled with a final frenzy.
This is their last trump card, and their only reliance.
They couldn't believe that anyone would dare to openly slaughter a high-ranking official of the God Kingdom on its own territory!
This is no longer a personal grudge; it is shaking the foundations of the nation!
Shangguan Qing and Shangguan Yan's final roars, filled with a fierce yet cowardly madness, echoed in the deathly silent starry sky.
Their words did indeed arouse the minds of countless powerful individuals who were secretly observing.
"That makes sense! This is no longer a personal grudge!"
“That’s right! The four members of the Shangguan family are, after all, ministers appointed by the Wuxiang Divine Kingdom, representing the face of the Divine Kingdom! To kill them in public is tantamount to declaring war on the entire Divine Kingdom!”
"Although this powerful figure is ridiculously strong, even the strongest can't fight against overwhelming odds. The foundation of the Formless Divine Kingdom is far beyond imagination! Does he really dare to risk offending the entire divine kingdom and go for the kill?"
"I don't think so! Didn't he say before that he would give the King of No Form face? This shows that he still has some reservations and doesn't want to push things too far."
"Yes, I also think he will show mercy. At most, he will cripple their cultivation or give them a lesson they will never forget, but he won't really take their lives."
In an instant, countless divine thoughts intertwined in the void, and various speculations came one after another.
Some people believe that Ye Chen will back down because he is wary of the divine kingdom's power.
Some people felt that Ye Chen was decisive and ruthless, and that he could destroy the Beast God Palace without hesitation, so a few ministers were no match for him.
More people, however, tend to prefer a compromise.
After all, in everyone's understanding, no matter how strong an independent powerhouse is, it is impossible for them to directly confront a vast divine kingdom that has stood for countless epochs.
Listening to the faint whispers around them, the four members of the Shangguan family felt as if they had grasped a lifeline while drowning.
Yup!
They are ministers of the Kingdom of God!
He is protected by the divine aura of the kingdom!
Killing them would be to undermine the foundation of the nation! It would be treason!
Does he dare?
He absolutely wouldn't dare!
Thinking of this, Shangguan Qing seemed to straighten his back a bit.
He turned to General Xiang, who had remained silent, and urged him in an almost roaring tone, "General Xiang! What are you waiting for!"
"This scoundrel openly defies the laws of the divine kingdom and intends to murder a high-ranking official! As the commander-in-chief on the frontier, it is your duty to take him down immediately!"
Shangguan Yan hurriedly echoed, "General Xiang! This is no longer a private matter! It concerns the dignity of the entire Wuxiang Divine Kingdom! It concerns the majesty of His Majesty the Holy Emperor!"
"If we allow such madmen to run rampant within the territory of our divine kingdom, what will become of our dignity? What will become of His Majesty's authority?"
"If you help us capture this fiend now, it will be a tremendous achievement! His Majesty will surely reward you handsomely!"
Shangguan Lian looked at General Xiang with teary eyes, her voice trembling with sobs: "General Xiang, save us... It doesn't matter if we die, but the majesty of the Divine Kingdom cannot be challenged..."
They took turns speaking, constantly putting pressure on General Xiang.
On one hand, there is the greater good of God's kingdom; on the other, there is the bond of camaraderie among colleagues
They were trying to use these things to completely bind General Xiang to their chariot.
However, they had no idea to what extent General Xiang was suffering and struggling inside.
help?
Or not to help?
This thought battled fiercely in his mind, making him feel as if his soul was about to be torn apart!
