Evergreen Immortal..

Chapter 114: Fairness and Justice

Qinghe branch.

Juyi Hall.

Dao Xiong rarely sat in the main seat, but sat beside it.

As a helmsman, he certainly cannot be on equal footing with the leader of the alliance.

"Perhaps some people don't know me, so let's get to know each other now. My last name is Ning, and my name is Ning Zhongtian, which means Zhongtian who is at the peak of his career."

Ning Zhongtian glanced at the people in the hall and went straight to the point.

Everyone said in unison: "Greetings, Leader Ning."

On such an occasion, the only people present were Dao Xiong, Li Rui and four other deputy helmsmen.

“So domineering!”

The Tiandi Alliance was originally formed by three people, among whom Ning Zhongtian was the youngest, had the highest talent, and now also had the highest martial arts skills.

He has already surpassed the other two.

Ever since his breakthrough.

There has always been a rumor that the Tiandi Alliance has only one leader. If Ning Zhongtian had not personally stepped in to suppress it, there would probably have been people who wanted to follow suit and become the hero who helped Fulong.

Wei Ming on the side glanced at Ning Zhongtian.

It's the look you get when you see someone you know showing off.

Ning Zhongtian raised his lips slightly: "Now that I am the garrison commander of An Ning Guard, our Qinghe branch should at least provide a small flag and manage food supplies."

The corner of Wei Ming's mouth twitched.

It was the first time he heard someone talk about placing confidants so confidently.

However, if Ning Zhongtian wants to secure this defensive position, he must cultivate his own confidants.

Although Xiaoqi and Guanliang were only the lowest-ranking officials in the Annan army, they also had their roles.

As the saying goes: "An ant can shake a tree, and an ant can destroy a cave."

Don't underestimate the small fry.

Besides, Ning Zhongtian trained more than two.

It’s just that the people in Qinghe branch know the situation in Qinghe better, so they want to select two people from Qinghe branch.

Ning Zhongtian glanced at Dao Xiong who was eager to try:
"As the helmsman, you should stop interfering, lest others say that our Tiandi Alliance leader and helmsman have run away."

Dao Xiong's face froze.

After hearing the news, he decided to give it a try.

But now Ning Zhongtian's words extinguished his hopes.

The greater the hope then, the greater the disappointment now.

Although he was unwilling, he still forced a smile in front of Ning Zhongtian: "Yes, leader."

Even though Ning Zhongtian appears the least among the three leaders of the Tiandi Alliance, his prestige is extremely high.

Why?

It’s because Ning Zhongtian is ruthless enough and never shows mercy when it comes to eliminating dissidents. Anyone who dares to go against his will is regarded as a dissident.

Dao Xiong is not an old man, so of course he won’t complain about his long life.

Human sorrows and joys can never be shared.

Just as Dao Xiong is depressed now, Zhang Yang, Zhou Rui and Ge Hong are happy.

Ning Zhongtian only needs two people.

There are five of them.

Now that Dao Xiong, the strongest competitor, has been eliminated, our chances of winning are much greater, fifty-fifty.

Zhou Rui glanced at Zhang Yang and then at Ge Hong.

"It's a tough battle today."

As for Li Rui.

He has been ignored.

He didn't take it seriously as he was a 70-year-old man who had just achieved a breakthrough.

"Zhang Yang. Ge Hong"

He sighed in his heart.

Zhang Yang’s badge used to be “2”, which not only represents his qualifications, but also his strength.

He has always been suppressed.

Not to mention Ge Hong, who was already an eighth-rank expert ten years ago and a well-known master in Qinghe City.

These two are tough guys.

Zhang Yang and Ge Hong also looked left and right.

I had a vague feeling that I was sure to win.

After all, it is difficult for anyone to remain calm in the face of the temptation of the Annan Army.

Dao Xiong lost his chance and glanced at his four deputies with a sneer. The current scene perfectly illustrated what it meant to have ulterior motives.

Ning Zhongtian glanced at a few people and said, "Based on the principle of fairness and justice, the two candidates this time will be chosen by the one with higher strength."

After saying that, he extended his index finger and pointed at Ge Hong and Zhou Rui. "You, you, you two go first."

Ge Hong and Zhou Rui were stunned when Ning Zhongtian pointed them out.

Zhou Rui's heart sank.

Originally, in his judgment, between choosing between Zhang Yang and Ge Hong, he was more inclined to Zhang Yang, but he did not expect that Leader Ning neither drew lots nor took turns to compete.

Instead, name the person directly.

It's really simple and crude.

Or it is totally unfair...

Zhou Rui took a deep breath and slowly stood up.

Even though he knew that he was not a match for Ge Hong, he still wanted to try. What if there was a chance?

Fist: "Please!"

Ge Hong also stood up: "Deputy Captain Zhou, please."

The Juyi Hall is spacious.

Seeing that Ning Zhongtian had no intention of leaving, the two men simply started competing in the lobby.

The scimitar versus the overlord knife.

Just over ten moves.

Zhou Rui dodged left and right and fell into a disadvantage.

Zhang Yang looked at Ge Hong's exquisite swordsmanship and was secretly surprised: "Ge Hong has improved again!"

He was very glad that Ning Zhongtian did not choose him and Ge Hong, otherwise he would probably not be a match for Ge Hong.

Li Rui looked at it with secret fear.

It’s not that the fight between Ge Hong and Zhou Rui was so thrilling, but every time Ge Hong and Zhou Rui’s swords touched objects in the lobby, a layer of invisible air would wrap the objects, making it impossible for the long swords to hurt the objects at all.

"What a clever use of energy."

Needless to say, this was naturally Ning Zhongtian's method.

"As expected of a sixth-grade rank!"

Although Li Rui also realized the true Qi, he felt that he could neither make the true Qi leave the body nor use it to such perfection.

The effort of a stick of incense.

The long knife in Zhou Rui's hand was knocked down by Ge Hong.

"I lost."

Zhou Rui's face darkened.

Although I had anticipated the result, I was still a little discouraged when I actually lost.

Ge Hong did not say any nice words in a hypocritical manner.

Just a fist bump:

"Brother Zhou, thank you for letting me."

Even though he had been the owner of a martial arts school for many years and had developed a temperament that allowed him to remain calm in the face of praise or criticism, Ge Hong still couldn't suppress his excitement.

Be an official.

This is a matter of bringing honor to the family, and is far more than what the owner of a martial arts school can achieve.

What's more, the small flag of the Annan Army is even more powerful than the second-in-command of the county government, the county magistrate.

The two sat down.

Zhang Yang stood up impatiently, grinning, "Brother Li, I'm sorry."

Although Ning Zhongtian's arrangements seemed arrogant, they were actually all planned out long ago.

It was obvious that he already knew the four deputy helmsmen of Qinghe.

The strength of the four people is clear, so this is the allocation.

Just save time.

Besides, he was choosing his own confidants, so there was no point in asking for fairness.

Li Rui also stood up and looked at Zhang Yang.

A trace of guilt flashed through Zhang Yang's heart.

Needless to say, his relationship with Li Rui was obvious, but facing the temptation of the Annan Army, it was absolutely impossible for him to give in.

"Brother Li is old anyway, so being an official is useless."

"When I win, I'll treat you to a meal and give you some elixirs as compensation."

Although he was on good terms with Li Rui, he also admired Li Rui's style of doing things.

It depends on the team competition.

He believed that he was still several steps ahead of Li Rui.

Li Rui slowly pulled out the long knife he had already held in his hand, thinking:

"Brother Zhang, I'm sorry."
