Despite the threat of death, they were completely unwilling to submit to the Divine Temple. No matter how despicably they had behaved, they had assumed the rightful duty of a ruler at this moment. Under no circumstances were they willing to betray their own kingdom.
Ji Fengyan took a deep breath. She noticed one of the angry-looking rulers was just about to rise up, and she quickly stood up first.
"Everyone, Grand Tutor Xing Hun's words are not completely unreasonable."
The rulers, who had been so enraged by Xing Hun's tactics, all looked in astonishment towards the source of that statement.
They were all stunned by what they saw.
The only one who had stood up to defend the Divine Temple was Ji Fengyan!
"Ji Fengyan! What are you saying!" One ruler shivered with rage. He couldn't believe that Ji Fengyan, as a ruler herself, would actually approve of the Divine Temple's methods!
