Chapter 437: Saints confront

Yuanshi Tianzun's face sank, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.

In this Investiture of the Gods, the Chan Sect had repeatedly suffered setbacks at the hands of the Jie Sect.

Four of the Twelve Golden Immortals had already died, and one, Juliusun, was suppressed by him at Qilin Cliff because he was greedy for life and afraid of death.

Only seven were left who could be used.

He already harbored resentment toward Tong Tian.

He did not expect Tong Tian to appear to stop them from taking action against Di Xin.

If Di Xin were allowed to lead the human race to rise in the name of the Human Sovereign, then Xiqi would be confirmed as rebels, which would be very unfavorable for the subsequent Investiture of the Gods.

Yuanshi Tianzun frowned.

"Tong Tian, the Kongtong Seal, which had disappeared in the long river of history, suddenly appeared in the world and fell into Di Xin's hands. Now that you have appeared here, does it have anything to do with you?"

Tong Tian's gaze was calm, and his expression was composed.

It was impossible to tell him why the Kongtong Seal was in Di Xin's hands, otherwise, it would expose Gu Xiu's affairs, so he just smiled it off.

"The Kongtong Seal is a supreme treasure of the human race, a symbol of the Human Sovereign. It is only natural that it appears in the hands of the Human Sovereign. What does it have to do with me?"

Yuanshi Tianzun naturally did not believe Tong Tian's words and snorted coldly.

"Tong Tian, stop playing dumb here. Your Jie Sect has repeatedly stopped our sect's Investiture of the Gods. You say it has nothing to do with you here; do you think I will believe it?"

Tong Tian retorted: "Yuanshi, what you are saying is wrong. Because your Chan Sect's Twelve Golden Immortals committed the killing calamity, the Teacher asked our three sects to conduct the Investiture of the Gods. My Jie Sect participating in the Investiture of the Gods is reasonable and logical. How can you say my Jie Sect is stopping your Investiture of the Gods?"

"However, for the Investiture of the Gods, the best method would be for our two sects to arrange for disciples to compete privately, with the losers going on the list. But your Chan Sect used the human world as a battlefield, causing the people of the human world to suffer."

"Your Chan Sect dragged my Jie Sect into this Great Calamity, and that's fine, but you even wanted to drag the entire human world into it."

Pausing for a moment, Tong Tian glanced at Yuanshi, seeing the other party was so angry that his beard was blowing and his eyes were wide,

He felt extremely comfortable in his heart and continued.

"Now that the Kongtong Seal has appeared in the world and the human race has regained the Human Sovereign, for the human race, it is originally a happy event. Yet you worry that the Human Sovereign will threaten your plans, and you do not hesitate to use your status as Saints to force the Human Sovereign, wanting to imprison him in the Fire Cloud Cave. I naturally cannot sit idly by."

Seeing Tong Tian lay everything out, Yuanshi Tianzun felt that continuing would damage the reputation of the Chan Sect and his own face.

So he brought out the Heavenly number as an excuse.

"Tong Tian, after the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, the Human Sovereign should not exist. This is the Heavenly number. Di Xin regaining the Human Sovereign authority and abolishing the Ren Sect disrupts the order of heaven and earth. As Saints of the Heavenly Dao, we naturally must maintain the order of heaven and earth, which has nothing to do with imprisonment."

Tong Tian Jiaozhu's expression was resolute, he stood with his hands behind his back, and smiled coldly: "Yuanshi, stop using your Chan Sect's set of arguments to talk. You do it for the interests of your sect, while Di Xin, as the Human Sovereign, should be the one to decide the affairs of the human race. Abolishing the Ren Sect is also for the sake of finding a way out for the human race, not disrupting things without reason."

Just now, facing Taiqing Laojun and Yuanshi Tianzun, Di Xin had lingering fears and had already prepared for the worst. He did not expect Tong Tian to appear and speak for him.

Di Xin looked at Tong Tian Jiaozhu, his respect for him deepening, and said loudly: "Thank you, Saint Tong Tian, for speaking out for justice."

Then, he looked at Taiqing Laojun and Yuanshi Tianzun.

"I am the Human Sovereign, and I have the final say in the affairs of our human race. If the two Saints insist on using power to oppress others, I will never back down!"

After speaking, the Human Sovereign aura surged, and the momentum became even stronger.

Taiqing Laojun's gaze flickered.

The Kongtong Seal, he was certain he had thrown it into the abyss of Chaos.

Even he himself could not find it back, so it was impossible for Tong Tian to have retrieved it.

But now, Tong Tian had appeared here.

The appearance of the Kongtong Seal and its falling into Di Xin's hands must have something to do with the Jie Sect.

He stopped paying attention to Di Xin and looked at Tong Tian.

"Tong Tian, tell me, how did the Kongtong Seal return to Di Xin's hands?"

"Taiqing, I don't know why you ask this. Didn't I say that the Kongtong Seal is a supreme treasure of the human race, so it is only natural that it returned to the hands of the human race."

Taiqing Laojun was silent for a moment, then said coldly,

"Tong Tian, as soon as Di Xin reclaimed the Human Sovereign authority, the Ren Sect was abolished."

"When we were about to take action, you appeared at the right time again. If you deny it again, do you think we will believe it?"

Tong Tian was indifferent.

"Is it important to me, Tong Tian, whether you believe it or not?"

Taiqing Laojun frowned tightly.

All along, Tong Tian had been very obedient to him and Yuanshi.

But ever since the Three Pure Ones split up and Tong Tian moved his sect to Jin'ao Island, the relationship between the Three Pure Ones had become increasingly distant.

Now, because of the Investiture of the Gods, Tong Tian had actually severed the bond of the Three Pure Ones.

Taiqing Laojun was thinking, if he hadn't always taken sides back then.

If he had mediated from the middle, would it not have come to this point?

For other things, he could be indifferent, taking a "not my business" attitude.

But the Ren Sect concerned his own path of the Dao, so Taishang Laojun would not be as magnanimous as he had been in the past.

A ruthless look flashed in his eyes.

"Tong Tian, I will not let go of the matter of Di Xin abolishing the Ren Sect. If you insist on interfering in this matter, don't blame us for not remembering the past bond of the Three Pure Ones."

Seeing Taiqing Laojun and Tong Tian arguing endlessly.

He really couldn't watch anymore and said.

"Big Brother, Tong Tian is no longer one of the Three Pure Ones, we don't need to be polite to him."

"Since he wants to interfere in this matter, let's let him know that just because he has the Four Immortal-Slaying Swords in his hand, he shouldn't think we are really afraid of him."

Tong Tian Jiaozhu was fearless, and his aura erupted.

"Hmph, Yuanshi, having suffered setbacks at my hands repeatedly during this period, you still haven't recognized yourself? Since you want to suffer humiliation again, let's have a contest today."

Tong Tian's words instantly enraged Yuanshi Tianzun: "Bastard! Do you really think I'm afraid of you?" ===== CHAPTER 438 =====
