Chapter 3038: A Small Man Intoxicated By Success (1/2)
Under the interference from the artifact spirit of the Tower of Radiance, Gongsun Zhi’s control over the Radiant Saint Hall reached an unprecedented height. No one dared to defy any of his orders.
The first thing he did after gaining power was to search for the Martial Soul lineage’s traces. In particular, Gongsun Zhi hated Jian Chen to the bone.
Immediately, all of the Radiant Saint Hall’s forces were mobilised under Gongsun Zhi’s orders. They began to search the entire Saints’ World for news regarding the Martial Soul lineage.
“This feeling of being able to order everyone around is simply wonderful. It’s intoxicating.” In the Radiant Saint Hall, Gongsun Zhi sat back in the hall master’s throne lazily. He felt extremely satisfied inside.
“Someone go summon Xu Zhiping of the Xu family and Huangfu Guiyi of the Midheaven clan. I have something important to discuss with them.” Gongsun Zhi issued another order. An elder who had condensed a soultree that was equivalent to an Infinite Prime heard this and immediately became serious.
Xu Zhiping of the Xu family and Huangfu Guiyi of the Midheaven clan were peak experts who stood at the apex of the plane. Their cultivations had both reached the Fourth Heavenly Layer of Gand Prime, even stronger than the previous hall master Yu Chen. But now, Gongsun Zhi actually treated these supreme figures who could create a great disturbance on the entire Desolate Plane with just a stamp of their foot with absolutely no regard at all, which made the elder extremely nervous.
Even if the Radiant Saint Hall was very powerful now, even if they possessed the six protectors, the elder still believed that peak experts like Xu Zhiping and Huangfu Guiyi still deserved some basic respect.
However, there was not a single hint of respect in Gongsun Zhi’s words.
The elder originally wanted to find two Radiant Godkings to pass on the message, but with some further thought, he decided it would be better for him to go in person.
Gongsun Zhi issued the order before glancing at Bai Yu, Han Xin, Donglin Yanxue, Xuan Ming, and Xuan Zhan below. He said seriously, “Don’t be in such a hurry to leave. Stay here for now. You’ll go later when I tell you to go. You can’t defy me like before anymore, do you understand?”
Bai Yu and Donglin Yanxue immediately became furious, while Han Xin remained calm. His emotions did not fluctuate at all.
Xuan Zhan seemed to read Gongsun Zhi’s thoughts and revealed a slight smile. He clasped his fist. “You have nothing to worry about, hall master. We obviously won’t cause you any embarrassment.”
Before long, two elders of the Radiant Saint Hall ventured to the Xu family and Midheaven clan individually and passed on Gongsun Zhi’s message in an extremely tactful manner.
However, even though the elders had put it extremely nicely, basically showing the Xu family and Midheaven clan sufficient respect, they still left Xu Zhiping and Huangfu Guiyi extremely displeased.
“Hmph, does this Gongsun Zhi really take himself to be a big deal? He’s actually bold enough to order us around.” Huangfu Guiyi’s face sank in the Midheaven clan as he snorted coldly.
“Gongsun Zhi is becoming haughtier and haughtier. He actually wants us to go and see him in the Radiant Saint Hall? Hmph, without the protector swords, he’s just a puny Radiant Godking. It’s absurd to think that a puny Godking would be bold enough to order us around on a whim.” The ancestor of the Xu family, Xu Zhiping, also showed coldness in his eyes. His face was ugly. He was such a mighty existence on the Desolate Plane, where he could change the overall situation on the plane with a single word. He possessed such great status and such great powers, yet a Godking was actually ordering him around now. That was basically a form of humiliation.
