The Heaven Pass was vast. Other than the vast mountain ranges and rivers, there were countless palaces and cities.
These palaces and cities were where the elders and disciples resided. Within the cities, everything was decided by the master and could be changed at will.
It could be said that in terms of living conditions, the current Heaven Pass was far better than the Soul Pass.
However, at this moment, amongst the countless cities, there was a city by the name of 'Han Ju' that was the most bustling.
Rather than saying it was lively inside the city, it was more like it was noisy outside the city, because a large number of Heaven Pass disciples and even some young elders were lingering outside the Restrained Residence.
Apart from a few people who wanted to queue up to visit, there were even more people watching from afar. Regardless of gender, they all had looks of admiration on their faces.
If one were to ask who could move the hearts of so many geniuses in the Heaven Pass, it would naturally be Xing Jue, who was in the limelight today.
Xing Jue's name had risen greatly after today's battle, especially in the Heaven Pass, where it happened. It could be said that there was no one who didn't know about him.
For such a super genius, no matter who it was, they all wanted to have some sort of relationship with him. Even some elders in the Heaven Pass were no exception.
"Junior brother Xing Jue, you're in the limelight today."
"Look, there are so many outstanding girls in the Heaven Pass casting flirtatious glances at you. If junior sister Xiao Han wasn't here, they would have probably barged in and thrown themselves at you."
"Oh, even the way men look at you is strange. You're really amazing."
Inside a palace that connected to the sky, Li Yu Ran looked through the window at the figures standing in the sky and looked at the execution with a strange smile on his face.
"Senior sister Li, don't make fun of me. I, Xing Jue, don't have such great charm." Xing Jue seemed rather helpless in the face of Li Yu Ran's teasing.
But looking out the window and seeing the densely packed figures in the distance, Xing Jue also felt rather emotional.
Thinking about the first time he stepped into this place, all sorts of strange gazes that were filled with disdain greeted him.
However, in less than half a day, the gazes of these people had completely changed. From disdain to admiration, it could even be said to be worship.
This also fully proved the saying, 'The strong are respected.' This was the iron rule of the world. If you wanted to change the way others looked at you, you had to display strength that would make them fearful.
"Alright, I won't disturb the sweet moment between you two lovebirds."
Seeing Xing Jue's awkward expression, Li Yu Ran suddenly covered her mouth and laughed. Then, she tactfully flew out of the window, giving Xing Jue and Li Xiao Han some privacy.
Buzz!
After Li Yu Ran left, Xing Jue took a glance outside the window, then lightly raised his arm and set up a concealment formation.
This barrier could prevent the people outside from seeing their true situation, but it could also allow them to see an illusion.
In this way, it wouldn't seem rude, and he could really be alone with Li Xiaohan.
"Brother Xing Jue, are you really going to the Desolate World? I've heard that it's a dangerous place. "
"In fact, the Sacred Alliance has even built a prison there to punish the disciples and elders who have violated the law." Li Xiao Han, who had learned of Xing Jue's existence, was a little worried.
Too many things had happened in one day. Xing Jue had completely exposed his strength, and even his identity.
And now, Xing Jue was going to leave again. This made Li Xiao Han feel extremely uneasy, not knowing if it was a good or bad thing.
"Silly girl, I'm going there to gain experience, not to receive punishment as a criminal."
"Furthermore, with Elder Su Can accompanying me, who can harm me?" Xing Jue, who was deeply afraid that Li Xiao Han would worry, hurriedly comforted her with a smile.
"Since that's the case, how about I go with Brother Xing Jue to gain experience?" Li Xiao Han suddenly suggested.
"This … Xiao Han, you're a Heaven Gate disciple now. It wouldn't be good for you to go with me and Elder Su Can."
Hearing Li Xiao Han's words, Xing Jue immediately revealed a troubled expression.
He naturally did not want to be separated from Li Xiao Han, but this trip to the Desolate World was filled with unknowns. He did not want Li Xiao Han to take the risk with him.
"Hmph, don't even think about it. You don't want me to accompany you, right?" Li Xiao Han pouted when she saw that Xing Jue was actually trying to brush her off. Her delicate face was filled with resentment.
However, this resentment contained a heartfelt worry. She, who knew Xing Jue very well, naturally knew the reason why Xing Jue was unwilling to bring her along. He did not want her to be in danger.
Xing Jue was in a difficult position. He knew that such an excuse would not be able to deceive the intelligent Li Xiao Han, but if he were to tell the truth, it would be even harder to dissuade Li Xiao Han from traveling with him. For a moment, he did not know what to do.
"Rumble ~ ~ ~"
But at this moment, an enormous aura suddenly descended from the sky. It actually penetrated the Spirit Formation that Xing Jue had set up, and even caused the two of them to tremble with a sense of danger.
"Dongfang Lingyu, don't go too far!"
And at this moment, an ear-piercing voice suddenly rang out. The voice was so loud that it caused the palace to tremble violently, as if ten thousand thunderclaps were exploding beside their ears.
"Elder Su Can? What happened? "
At this moment, Xing Jue's and Li Xiao Han's expressions changed greatly. They could tell that the explosive voice was from Elder Su Can.
* whoosh whoosh *
Knowing that something had happened, Xing Jue hurriedly removed the Spirit Formation, and then broke through the window with Li Xiao Han.
After flying out of the window, Xing Jue and Li Xiao Han could not help but be taken aback. At this moment, other than a large number of Heaven Gate disciples, there were actually several hundred figures wearing special armor outside the residence.
These people were clearly not from the Heaven Gate, and every one of them had a profound aura. They were all Asura Battle Kings.
In particular, the black-haired old man in the lead gave Xing Jue an aura that was not any weaker than Elder Su Can's. He was actually a high level Asura Battle Emperor.
High level Asura Battle Emperors were powerful figures, but in a single day, Xing Jue actually saw four of them. This made him feel uneasy.
"The Punishment Department?"
But compared to that, what shocked Xing Jue even more was the word 'Punishment' on the armoured people.
These top experts were actually from the Punishment Department of the Sacred Alliance's headquarters.
"Just what happened? Why did the Punishment Department and the Earth Gate come to the Heaven Gate together, and why did they have a conflict with Elder Su Can? "
Moreover, at this moment, other than the Punishment Department, there were also many people from the Earth Gate, and even the Earth Gate Lord was present.
And the Earth Gate Lord and the Punishment Department stood opposite the Heaven Gate Lord, Elder Su Can, and the others.
At this moment, Elder Su Can's emotions were clearly fluctuating, and it was obvious that something unpleasant had happened between them.
"Brother Dongfang, that's Xing Jue!"
But at this moment, the Earth Gate Lord noticed the appearance of Xing Jue, and actually pointed in the direction of Xing Jue and Li Xiaohan.
At the same time, the people from the Punishment Department, the Earth Gate Elders, and almost everyone present shifted their gazes to Xing Jue.
At this moment, Xing Jue realized that these people were here for him.
Swoosh.
"Whoever dares to touch Xing Jue will have to go through me first."
Just as Xing Jue realized that the situation was not good, Elder Su Can was already standing in front of Xing Jue like a ghost. At the same time, an invisible barrier had already enveloped Xing Jue and Li Xiaohan.
"Su Can, are you trying to defy the laws of the Union?"
Seeing Su Can's actions, the black-haired elder of the Punishment Department, who was a high-level Asura War Emperor, said in an extremely cold tone.
"Defy the laws? Xia Zhong was not killed by Xing Jue at all, so why are you trying to capture him? "
"Dongfang Lingyu, you can't distinguish between right and wrong. What kind of person are you as the head of the Punishment Department?" Elder Su Can retorted fiercely.
"What? Xia Zhong was killed? That black-haired elder is actually the head of the Punishment Department, and the Punishment Department wants to capture me? What's going on? "
Hearing such a conversation, Xing Jue couldn't help but be shocked, and seemed to be at a loss. Although he had seriously injured Xia Zhong at that time, it was not to the extent of his death.
But from the meaning of their words, Xia Zhong seemed to have died, and this was the reason why the Punishment Department wanted to capture Xing Jue.
"Xing Jue, Xia Zhong has already died, and the cause of his death was because you failed to save him."
"Right now, the Pass Lord of the Earth Pass has already reported this matter to the Punishment Department, and the Punishment Department wants to arrest you according to the law." Seeming to know that Xing Jue was puzzled, Elder Su Can quietly transmitted a message to him, explaining the current situation to him.
"Elder Su Can, at that time, I acted with propriety. It was impossible for Xia Zhong to not be able to save him, let alone die."
"As for the Pass Lord of the Sky Pass, many people can testify for me that Xia Zhong's death has nothing to do with me, and they definitely want to frame me."
Xing Jue hurriedly explained, because he believed that with his control over his soul, it was impossible for him to have accidentally killed Xia Zhong.
So he felt that Xia Zhong's death had nothing to do with him, and that the Pass Lord of the Earth Pass wanted to deal with him, so he wanted to frame him.
Suddenly, Elder Su Can shouted at the Pass Lord of the Sky Pass, "Baili Yun, you were also there at that time. How was Xia Zhong's injury, and whether it was fatal?"
Suddenly, Elder Su Can shouted at the Pass Lord of the Sky Pass, "Eh … Brother Dongfang, I was indeed there at that time, and I can testify for little friend Xing Jue. Xia Zhong's injury was not fatal, and I'm afraid that his death has something to do with little friend Xing Jue …"
Seeing this, the Pass Lord of the Sky Pass, who originally wanted to protect Xing Jue, also unhesitatingly became a witness.
"Baili Yun, what do you mean by this? Could it be that you want to say that this Pass Lord killed my Earth Pass Elder and then frame Xing Jue? "
But before the Pass Lord of the Sky Pass could finish speaking, the Pass Lord of the Earth Pass hurriedly refuted, and his face was full of rage, as if what he said was true.
"Alright everyone, I have seen Xia Zhong's corpse with my own eyes, and it was indeed caused by a blow to his chest."
"If we did not have sufficient evidence, the Punishment Department would not have appeared here. So as to whether Xia Zhong's death was caused by Xing Jue, there is no need for everyone to argue."
"However, since Xing Jue did not have the intention to kill Xia Zhong, it can be judged as an accident, and he will be dealt with lightly!"
At this moment, the strongest person in the Punishment Department, Dongfang Lingyu, insisted that Xing Jue was the culprit that caused Xia Zhong's death.
"This …"
At this moment, the Pass Lord of the Sky Pass could not help but frown, and his expression became complicated.
This was because Dongfang Lingyu's position in the Sacred Alliance was not insignificant, and it could be said that he held the power of life and death.
Other than the Supreme Elder and the Chief Palace Master, his words carried the most weight in the Sacred Alliance.
Now that he insisted that Xing Jue was the culprit, even if he was the Pass Lord of the Sky Pass, it would be difficult for him to protect Xing Jue.
"Humph, so you have already colluded to kill the disciple of my Soul Gate."
"Since that is the case, let's cut the crap. I only have one thing to say. If you want to capture Xing Jue, you will have to pass through me first!"
