--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For a genius like Ji Ze, he had always looked down on people with wild arrogance. To them, their goal in life was always to be the number one under the Heavens, even if they could not be the number one, then their future goals would still to be number one. It was the same even for Du Ke, the strongest of Sin Domain, Ji Ze could admit that Du Ke was stronger than him, but definitely did not assume that he would always be weaker than Du Ke, or even be recruited by Du Ke.

~Become someone else’s subordinate? What kind of joke is that!~ Ji Ze did not think that it was an honor, but felt that it was a humiliation to himself.

~Yes, humiliation!~

In his eyes, the only one in the world who had the qualifications of recruiting him was Tang Tian. In truth, Ji Ze was not completely convinced towards Tang Tian, but instead, he was initially only afraid and shocked by Tang Tian’s strength, and lowered his head in the face of death, but in his heart, he had always plotted to escape.

But as time went past, he became more and more convinced by Tang Tian. It was a strength no ordinary man had, and his shocking speed of improvement made Ji Ze’s heart to rebel dissipate quickly. To him, even Du Ke, the strongest man in Sin Domain, was not Tang Tian’s opponent.

Tang Tian did not convince Ji Ze with just his fists.

In the Sin Domain, when someone was about to obtain some powerful inheritance, he or she would be afraid of others knowing. But Tang Tian did not care, he actually passed down the powerful Heavy Demonic Execution without the intent of concealing it. He was not greedy with treasures as well, and would always share treasures generously with everybody. The Death Thumb Ring was an extremely powerful treasure, but he gave it away. He had also refined their treasures, and whatever enlightenment he gained, he would share it with everyone.

Ji Ze was convinced, for he knew that he himself could never be like that. For the sake of the Null Division, Tang Tian disregarded his own safety and flipped the entire Sin Domain, creating a lot of noise and disturbance. At that time, Tang Tian was not as powerful as he currently was, but dared to make enemies out of the entire Sin Domain for the Null Division. This bravery and camaraderie had completely subdued Ji Ze.

Furthermore, Tang Tian was a huge benefactor to the Sin Domain, that’s right, a huge benefactor. Without Tang Tian, would the Sin Domain be able to escape from its cell? Based on this, even Du Ke had to admit that. Who didn’t see Du Ke joining Tang Tian’s banner without hesitation? This huge grace was something that no one could argue against.

In Ji Ze’s eyes, Tang Tian was already the strongest man in the world, the most heroic man in the world, the man that he respected the most!

For that, Ji Ze completely accepted being recruited by such a man.

But, what about Claudia?

Ji Ze squinted his eyes, not hiding his own killing intent, sneering silently behind the mask. ~Why is it that after we leave Sin Domain, every single woman we meet doesn’t know the difference between Heaven and Earth?~

He had an extremely bad impression of Melissa. Melissa’s initial pride and arrogance made him even reveal his killing intent. Instead, it was Melissa’s grandfather whom Ji Ze felt was good, a knowledgeable, sharp and decisive man. Although Melissa quieted down after that, Ji Ze could still feel that she was not truly sincere in them joining, and always left herself a way out. As a rampant and aggressive man, Ji Ze was extremely opinionated, once he decided to truly serve Tang Tian, he would not hold back, and thus he despised and looked down on how Melissa was.

But Tang Tian did not care, and thus he could not do anything. Since he did not like Melissa, he naturally did not care about giving her face, and thus would initiate the teasing of Claudia.

But Claudia’s initiative to recruit them touched upon the most taboo matter to him, and thus the anger in his heart was understandable.

It was not only him, all of the entire God Armor Army revealed unkind expressions, they had followed Tang Tian for an even longer time, and was naturally proud and arrogant. This arrogance was not passed on to them from Tang Tian, but was through the daily interactions with top grade martial techniques, completing the harshest of trainings, and the consecutive victories in battles, that accumulated and carved them to who they were.

All of them were proud to be members of the God Armor Army, and for some random passerby to actually appear and actually want to recruit them, it changed all of their facial expressions. Like Fu Zheng Zhi, who had the identity of head of a family, in terms of family history, his was much older than this unknown Elizabeth Tradings.

But Fu Zheng Zhi was much older than Ji Ze, and as he was experienced with the world, the anger in him was naturally not as large. When Claudia openly asked to recruit them, he only felt that it was a joke, and not as furious as Ji Ze.

But when Ji Ze spoke out sternly with a sense of justice, that’s right, to Fu Zheng Zhi, Ji Ze’s words was for justice.

And when he suddenly reacted and realized that the boss was still at the side.

~Devious, too devious! Shameless, too shameless!~

~He actually managed to bootlick in front of Master.~

~Who knew Ji Ze, this seemingly no brained fellow, is actually such an expert in bootlicking~ That was Fu Zheng Zhi’s train of thoughts at that moment. ~What a show, his powerful and resonating decision to portray his loyalty, matched with his rather die than submit attitude, oh no, it is the killing intent stemmed from humiliating his honor. Truly a God level performance, truly worth to be called a masterpiece, I have truly underestimated him.~

Fu Zheng Zhi used his hand to arrange his mask properly, his eyes flashed with a cold light aura.

~How can I let you hog all of the limelight of such a dazzling stage, right under the eyes of the Master? Come, Little Ze, let this senior teach you, by using a beautiful performance, I want to show you that you are still naive in being shameless!~

His eyes immediately turned red, his body trembled slightly, as though he was shivering from the wind, he spoke out with a hoarse voice: “Humiliating us by trying to recruiting us right in front of the Master, it is definitely unforgivable! Even if Temple is here, they are unable to shake our decision to follow the Master. Even if the mountain collapses, or the river water dries up, or thunder appearing in winter, or if it snows and rains in summer, even if Heaven and Earth merges, even until the end of time or if it‘s the end of the worth, I will follow my Master, and will never sway. In life, I am My Master’s subordinate. In Death, I am my Master’s ghost!”

His last sentence was spoken through gritted teeth, as though he was using all of his strength to shout out every word.

Melissa was dumbstruck, ~What…..~

For Melissa to be dumbstruck, one could only imagine Claudia’s reaction. She was completely stupefied. ~What is going on, what follow, even if you are unwilling, there isn’t a need to talk about life and death. Alright, even if you’re humiliated to the point of wanting to fight to the death, where did these mushy and emotional speech all about…..~

Claudia suddenly felt that she was a brothel owner breaking up a couple, an evil tyrant breaking apart an affectionate couple. ~But…..I was just trying to recruit you guys…. That’s all…..~

Claudia, who usually felt that she was experienced enough and had the confidence of handling all sorts of situation suddenly felt that she did not know what to do.

Awkward silence, it was a completely awkward silence.

A high velocity wind blew past, causing everyone to be in disarray.

Everyone of the God Armor Army were dumbstruck, even Ji Ze, who was soaring with killing intent was stunned, he was completely shocked by what had happened.

Immersed in his own thoughts, Tang Tian was completely oblivious to the hubbub around him, something that frequently happened. Upon being lost in his own train of thoughts, no amount of noise could influence him. But, it was the sudden silence around him that awakened him.

“Hey, what’re you guys doing?”

Tang Tian was startled by everybody’s dumbstruck appearance, evidently, he did not know what was going on.

Fu Zheng Zhi froze, ~Was my heartfelt performance just now not seen by Master?~

If it was Ji Ze, a young man, he would definitely be embarrassed. But, who was Fu Zheng Zhi?

~What a pity, I’ve wasted my emotions….. Little Ze, let this senior teach you once more, when you’ve wasted your emotions, oh, then pull everyone down with you.~

He sorted out his expression calmly, his red eyes instantly becoming normal, his voice no longer strange: “Oh, we were just rejecting Young Miss Claudia’s invitation, and slightly revealed our decision to follow our Master forever. Everyone shares the same sentiments and are on the same page.”

~Slightly….~

Everyone almost puked.

Tang Tian understood, then turned to look at everyone.

Everyone, who were experiencing completely different emotions from Fu Zheng Zhi, were completely caught off guard, they were implicated just by being present, and were scolding Fu Zheng Zhi heavily in their hearts. But when Tang Tian’s gaze swept past them, all of their hearts trembled, they subconsciously stood straight up, puffed their chests up and lifted their heads up, they preserved a corrected postured and everyone’s actions were in unison, all of them stood in formation and nodded their heads, then spoke with determination: “Following the Master for life!”

This was completely a subconscious movement, the long grueling and torturous trainings had left a shadow in their hearts, and had long become their instinct.

~Sob sob sob sob, why are our bodies so honest….~

Tang Tian was moved, he suddenly stood up and replied excitedly: “Great, we will forever fight alongside each other!”

Melissa and Claudia were once again dumbstruck, but both of their reactions were completely different.

Melissa simply wanted to cover her face, ~How embarrassing…..and its even in front of Claudia, oh my god, why did I disguise them as the Iron Mask Army? The prestige of the Iron Mask Army, Mace Field Tradings’ fame….~

On the other hand, Claudia herself felt that she was being played, ~That’s right, it must be this bitch, she intentionally made this play out, just to make me a fool.~ Her face flushed red as she became furious. She had never suffered such a humiliation since she was young. Furthermore, it was right in front of Melissa, an unprecedented shame filled her heart. Due to the stir of emotions, her eyes turned bloodshot, all of her ruse completely disappeared as she screamed: “Kill them all! Kill them all!”

The moment Claudia screamed, whoosh, all of her bodyguards that were all longing to take action soared into the air as they leapt out, and pounced towards the trading ship below.

Melissa’s face changed: “How dare you, Claudia! The Holy Bell prohibits this! Under the Holy Bell, whoever dares to cause an internal strife will be killed!”

Claudia turned sluggish, The Holy Bell had not rung for a long time, there were many rules that many had forgotten. Upon Melissa’s reminder, she suddenly remembered it, there truly was such a ban. The Holy Bell meant that Temple was at a critical juncture, and at such a moment, any internal strife would weaken Temple’s strength, thus it was forbidden.

But, with so many families gathered together, and with the few generations of accumulated hatred between them, how can there not be friction?

Thus, there was some leeway with the Holy Bell bans, as long as no human lives were lost, the Temple would not care.

Claudia revealed a sinister laugh: “Break their legs! And slap every single person’s mouth 50 times!”

In the air, many figures descended with killing intent.
