Chapter 919

The arrival of the Commander caused all the True Persons to narrow their eyes in an instant.

Emperor Kongyuan did not deliberately radiate his aura; his gaze merely swept across, and all the True Person experts present straightened their bodies involuntarily before bowing in unison to pay their respects.

"Commander, I never imagined that you would personally come to rescue us. Thank you, Commander, thank you, Commander!" After a brief moment of shock, the two old hands, Guan Laohei and Bai Zhangshan, thanked him loudly, bringing the others along to thank him as well.

Because both of them realized a problem: for the Commander to personally set out, this incident was likely much bigger than they had imagined.

"Never imagined? What else have you not imagined?" Emperor Kongyuan's tone was somewhat unkind, causing Guan Laohei and Bai Zhangshan to freeze.

"You probably didn't imagine that this time, the alien Holy Ancestor Chi Yi has personally set out!"

"What? Holy Ancestor Chi Yi!"

Guan Laohei and Bai Zhangshan looked astonished; to be precise, they looked terrified.

"If I hadn't come personally, at least one-third of you people would have been killed in battle!"

Emperor Kongyuan added coldly, leaving Guan Laohei and Bai Zhangshan in shock, before they led the group of True Persons to kneel on one knee, thanking Emperor Kongyuan for saving their lives.

"Get up!"

Emperor Kongyuan waved his hand casually. "I don't mean to blame you, but next time you act like this, you can be more thorough."

"We, your subordinates, acknowledge our fault!" Bai Zhangshan and Guan Laohei hurriedly pleaded guilty.

Emperor Kongyuan waved his hand again. "With such great merit, how can there be fault? It's just your bad luck; you didn't know beforehand that Chi Ze was the direct bloodline of Holy Ancestor Chi Yi!

If it were the direct bloodline of another alien Holy Ancestor, even if you knew, they couldn't have arrived so quickly; it's just that Chi Yi happened to be stationed here at the Ancient Holy City."

When he said this, Emperor Kongyuan swept his gaze over Xu Jin, pausing slightly.

Xu Jin immediately lowered his head, understanding that his teacher, Emperor Kongyuan, was taking the opportunity to lecture others while also pointing out or lecturing him!

"Alright, get up!

This time, you did well; you've brought honor to me!"

As the group of True Persons stood up, Emperor Kongyuan added, "Chi Yi was only repelled by me; he may return at any time with others. You continue to maintain vigilance and guard until this star island returns and merges.

Bai Zhangshan, Guan Xiaoxing, come here."

Emperor Kongyuan called these two over, likely to inquire about the specific details of the battle. Xu Jin wanted to use the Bright Chronicle Star Pattern to listen, but unexpectedly, he was instantly cut off.

Inside a great hall on Red Peak Star Island, Emperor Kongyuan, having asked about some details of the battle, narrowed his eyes, and a majestic aura instantly pressed down on Guan Laohei and Bai Zhangshan.

"You can't say?"

"You two, as my subordinates, actually say the most critical battle details cannot be told!

What, have you two changed your allegiance?

Or is there some other expert pointing you in the right direction behind your backs?" Emperor Kongyuan said angrily.

Hearing this, Guan Laohei and Bai Zhangshan smiled bitterly. "Commander, it is not like that; it is just that some battle details are related to the Great Dao Oaths we swore. We want to say it, but we cannot!"

"Great Dao Oaths?" Emperor Kongyuan was thoughtful, but suddenly said angrily, "With such a big matter, you use Great Dao Oaths to shirk responsibility; how do you expect me to understand?"

Bai Zhangshan and Guan Laohei looked at each other and said helplessly, "Commander, regarding the battle details, why don't you ask the other person who participated in the battle? He knows more."

"Who?"

"Xu Jin."

Emperor Kongyuan's gaze shifted slightly; he had actually thought of this long ago and had associated many things with it.

"Go, bring Xu Jin to me!"

Bai Zhangshan and Guan Laohei felt as if they had been granted amnesty and hurriedly left.

The encounter just now was truly a difficult problem.

If they spoke, it would violate the Great Dao Oath, hindering their path; if they didn't speak, they couldn't explain it to the Commander. Fortunately, the Great Sage had thought of this point long ago and made arrangements, which led to the explanation just now.

Otherwise, this hurdle would have been truly difficult to pass.

"Disciple Xu Jin pays respects to teacher; disciple thanks teacher for the great grace of rescue!" As soon as he entered, Xu Jin bowed deeply. Xu Jin knew that Emperor Kongyuan had already isolated the inside from the outside, and outsiders could not peek in.

"Tell me, how did you fool them into doing such a great deed! You actually made them swear Great Dao Oaths to be loyal to you, and even I cannot be told the battle details!" Emperor Kongyuan's expression was gloomy, as if anger was brewing!

Seeing this expression, Xu Jin knew he had guessed correctly.

He hadn't studied history in his previous life in vain.

In the face of power, let alone master and disciple, even biological father and son can turn against each other, with knives drawn; let alone their master-disciple relationship formed halfway.

"Loyalty?"

Xu Jin looked stunned and hurriedly explained, "Teacher, you have misunderstood. How would I have the ability to make them swear an oath of loyalty?"

"Oh, then tell me, why didn't they dare to say it themselves, but let you come to explain!"

"Ah, teacher, didn't you tell me to hide the relationship between you and me well!"

"Hmm, and then?"

"Your Abyss Domain divine ability should be known to others. If disciple revealed it, wouldn't they judge the relationship between disciple and you?

So after disciple formulated the plan, I had them swear a Great Dao Oath not to leak the secrets of the divine abilities they saw.

Otherwise, as long as I brought them into the Abyss Domain, they would know everything.

Then the relationship between teacher and disciple would be leaked, which would bring a fatal disaster to disciple." Xu Jin explained.

Hearing Xu Jin say this, Emperor Kongyuan's expression softened. "That is true."

Hearing this, Xu Jin finally breathed a sigh of relief. This hurdle was considered passed, and he then detailed the specific battle process to Emperor Kongyuan, including his thoughts and so on.

Except for concealing a little bit of key information about his personal strength, such as the limit of spatial shifting distance, etc.

It was basically ninety percent true and ten percent false.

Suddenly, Emperor Kongyuan's gaze narrowed; he leaned forward and stared at Xu Jin. "You mean, your Abyss Domain space can already carry four people?"

"Returning to teacher, that is indeed the case; it can barely fit four people."

"Your Abyss Domain is growing so fast?" Emperor Kongyuan was quite surprised, and even more pleased.

"Returning to teacher, you asked disciple to cast and refine for one hour every day, but disciple casts and refines for at least two hours every day, or even more.

However, in such a short time, the improvement is not great, but before, after disciple slew the Silver Wing Holy Ancestor's direct bloodline, Yin Lin, I refined half a drop of Ethereal True Blood..."

"Wait, didn't you tell me before that you only obtained less than half of Yin Lin's physical body?" Emperor Kongyuan suddenly frowned, his eyes becoming sharp again.

"That is indeed the case! But after teacher said that Ethereal True Blood could be refined, disciple thought that leaving the corpse there would be a waste, so I tried refining it once using the method you taught.

Unexpectedly, I really refined a drop of Ethereal True Blood the size of a grain of rice.

I casually refined it into the Abyss Domain, and unexpectedly, it caused the size of the Abyss Domain to increase, just enough to hold four people." Xu Jin said.

This explanation made sense, but Emperor Kongyuan was not satisfied, especially regarding the mention of Yin Lin's corpse.

He had a feeling of being deceived by his disciple; his gaze stared at Xu Jin, but Xu Jin's eyes were extremely firm, without any evasion.

Suddenly, Emperor Kongyuan asked, "Which parts of Yin Lin's corpse did you obtain?"
