The Devil Mountain was the sacred ground of the Myriad Devil Islands. With regards to Wu Xiu who came from the immortal realms, they would naturally feel a sense of resistance.
The countenance of the Child of Darkness was extremely unsightly to behold. As one of the nine children of darkness in the devil-foundation realm of the Darkness Devil Hall, he would be one of the future successors of the Darkness King. But today, outside the sacred ground, he actually lost to an immortal realm cultivator. He knew what sort of influence this would bring to him.
His cold eyes stared at Qin Wentian, wanting nothing more than to devour him with darkness. Even if the Judiciary Devil Hall had already given their verdict, there were some things that could no longer be changed.
"Our Myriad Ancient Devil Hall naturally wouldn't question the judgement. However, the judgement this time is truly unfair. We want to see the Judiciary Devil Hall personally." An expert from the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall coldly spoke. The Devil Mountain needed rules to exist and the Judiciary Devil Hall was the place where the Myriad Devil Sovereign was in charge of the rules. Once a conflict erupted, the Judiciary Devil Hall would appear and their words would represent the judgement.
Even the devil halls at the peak of the Devil Mountain had to obey the will of the Myriad Devil Sovereign. During the judgement, their will was the will of the Myriad Devil Sovereign.
"Fine." That expert from the Judiciary Devil Hall coldly glanced at the people from the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall. From afar, another group of people from the Judiciary Devil Hall was rushing over.
"A conflict erupted in the sacred ground, causing two Judiciary Devil Hall priests to rush here at the same time. Very good." That expert from the Judiciary Devil Hall coldly stared at the people from the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall. It has been a very long time since someone dared to cause a conflict here.
That expert from the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall coldly snorted. Speaking of which, this conflict erupted because of the arrogance of the Child of Darkness. He felt that since Qin Wentian was a Wu Xiu from the immortal realms, he should be killed directly. He also felt that he would be able to kill Qin Wentian easily. But he didn't expect that he would be defeated, causing such a huge commotion.
There were seven priests in the Judiciary Devil Hall. Each of them had great authority and their cultivation bases were all different. However, all of them were successors of the Judiciary Devil Hall and had hopes of wielding the scepter in the future.
These two priests who just arrived were extremely conspicuous in the crowd. They were clad in long robes and were clad in blood-colored armor, exuding an incomparably imposing aura.
Moreover, one of them was a male priest, while the other was a female priest.
The priestess was wearing the priestess uniform of the Judgement Priestess, which accentuated her slender figure. Her long hair draped over her shoulders, but the blood-red laurel crown on her head made people not dare to have any blasphemous thoughts towards her.
The priestess of the Judiciary Palace was none other than the priestess Qin Wentian met before in the Tiandao Sacred Academy. Also, she had once helped Qingcheng. Her face was still covered by a pointy mask, blocking all probing. Only her beautiful eyes shone with magnificence.
"Greetings, High Priest." Those experts from the Judiciary Devil Hall bowed. The male priest walked out, his countenance was filled with coldness. He swept his gaze over the crowd as he asked, "Why are you causing trouble outside the sacred ground?"
"The Child of Darkness had a conflict with Wu Xiu from the immortal realms. The Child of Darkness was defeated and Wu Xiu from the immortal realms wanted to kill him. However, he was obstructed and injured by someone from the Darkness Devil Hall. This subordinate rules that the Child of Darkness as well as the experts from the Darkness Devil Hall are forbidden from entering the sacred ground for a year. This immortal Wu Xiu from the immortal realms, although he ascended the Devil Mountain, he violated the rules of our Devil Mountain and should be executed." That person bowed as he spoke.
"Since this is the case, we will follow your rules. Is there anyone who disagrees?" The voice of the priest was emotionless, as though he had already made a decision. The expressions of the experts from the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall turned extremely ugly. Although Qin Wentian was only a good friend of Bujie and had nothing to do with them, the founder of the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall did indeed come from the immortal realms. Hence, they weren't that stubborn when it came to immortals and devils. They felt that since they ascended the Devil Mountain, they should treat everyone equally.
"It's the Child of Darkness who said he wanted to kill this immortal expert from the immortal realms. This was why the immortal realms retaliated. If you want to execute him, shouldn't you punish him as well?" The expert from the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall continued.
"When did the people of the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall have the authority to judge?" That young man glanced at the expert from the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall as he coldly asked.
"Although the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall doesn't have the authority to judge, they have the responsibility to explain the course of events so that the Judiciary Devil Hall can make a better judgment." At this moment, just when everyone thought that the dust had settled, a different voice rang out. This voice was Cold, as though there were no emotions within.
Everyone inclined their heads and glanced over. The person who spoke was actually the priestess of the Judiciary Devil Hall. Their eyes couldn't help but to flash. Could it be that the two priestesses had different opinions?
"Tell us everything that happened." The priestess spoke.
"Right." The expert from the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall spoke. He pointed to Qin Wentian, "This man is Wu Xiu from the immortal realms. However, since he ascended the Devil Mountain, it means that he has obtained the approval of the Myriad Devil Sovereign. Along the way, he wanted to enter the Saint Devil Hall to take a look but was obstructed by the Child of Darkness. This Wu Xiu from the immortal realms was actually defeated in the end. In a fit of anger, this immortal realms Wu Xiu acted extremely heavily. As for whether he had killing intent or not, I temporarily don't know. However, the experts from the Judiciary Devil Hall obstructed him and directly injured Wu Xiu, wanting to kill him but was stopped by me. After that, the experts from the Judiciary Devil Hall arrived. This is the complete story."
"Is that so?" The priestess turned her gaze to the crowd. "Outside the Saint Devil Hall, under the radiance of the Myriad Devil Sovereign, if anyone dares to lie before the Judiciary Devil Hall, they shall bear the consequences."
No one responded. It was obvious that this was the gist of what had happened.
"Do you think we should overturn the earlier judgement?" The priestess stared at the priest as she asked.
"Why should we overturn it? The Darkness Devil Hall is one of the devil halls that exists together with the Saint Devil Hall. Even if the Child of Darkness obstructed Wu Xiu from entering the Saint Devil Hall, it wouldn't be overboard." That priest stared at the priestess as he spoke. Clearly, it was impossible for him to overturn the judgement he made.
"As a priest of the Judiciary Devil Hall, we have to follow the will of the Myriad Devil Sovereign. We have to forget everything else. Even with the identity of the Child of Darkness, it wouldn't affect the fairness of the judgement. This is the foundation of the Judiciary Devil Hall. Have you forgotten?" The priestess coldly spoke, causing the expression of that priest to stiffen.
He naturally understood the will of the Judiciary Devil Hall. However, one was the Child of the Darkness Devil Hall while the other was the immortal realms' Wu Xiu. When they made their judgement, how could they not take everything into consideration? It was just that he didn't expect that the priestess' opinion was completely different from his.
"What do you think the judgement should be?" The priest asked.
"The Child of Darkness relied on his identity and went against the will of the Myriad Devil Sovereign. His qualifications to enter the Saint Devil Hall will be revoked and he will never be able to step half a step into the Saint Devil Hall. This immortal realms' Wu Xiu passively resisted and is innocent. The Darkness Devil Hall acted when the Child of Darkness was defeated, wanting to kill Wu Xiu, shielding his fellow sect members and going against the will of the Myriad Devil Sovereign.
The priestess' cold voice rang out, causing everyone to be shocked. Even the experts from the Myriad Ancient Devil Hall couldn't help but feel their hearts trembling as they stared at the priestess.
Although such a judgement could be considered as iron-blooded justice, the person she wanted to judge was an expert from the Darkness Devil Hall as well as the Child of Darkness. Wasn't this a little too bold? If Qin Wentian was a cultivator of the Devil Mountain with a status equal to the Child of Darkness, such a judgement might have appeared. But he was Wu Xiu from the immortal realms. The priestess actually made such a judgement.
The countenances of the Darkness Devil Hall and the Child of Darkness changed, becoming extremely cold. As one of the three supreme devil halls, the status of the Darkness Devil Hall was equal to the Judiciary Devil Hall. The Judiciary Priestess also had the same status as the Child of Darkness. However, at this moment, this priestess actually dared to make such a judgement.
"You are truly impudent." The expression of the Child of Darkness was incomparably cold. The Judiciary Devil Hall was in charge of judgement. If the judgement was to take effect, he would be stripped of his chance to enter the Saint Devil Hall. In addition to his earlier defeat, his position as the Child of Darkness was already destined to be stripped away.
"As the priestess of the Judiciary Devil Hall, I naturally have to follow the will of the Myriad Devil Sovereign. When it comes to judgement, I won't shirk my responsibility." The priestess icily spoke. She stared at the priest as she spoke, "If you have any objections to my judgement, we can return to the Judiciary Devil Hall to invite the Grand Priest."
The eyes of the young man flashed. The status of the Grand Priest was transcendent, it was a position after the Judiciary Devil Hall was promoted. Only priests who have stepped into the devil emperor realm would have the qualifications to be promoted to the Grand Priest, and they would have a chance to sit on the Judiciary Throne.
"Since you insist on your judgement, I will voluntarily withdraw. You can make the final decision here." The eyes of the priest flickered as he retreated. His subordinates followed behind him. The eyes of everyone flashed, they instantly understood how sinister this man was. Even in a place like the Judiciary Devil Hall, there would still be competition. There were a total of seven Judiciary Priests, but there were only three Grand Priests. Only one person could sit on the Judiciary Throne.
This priest clearly wanted the priestess to offend the Darkness Devil Hall.
"Since this is the case, Judiciary, bring the Child of Darkness away and send him back to the Darkness Devil Hall. As for the devil king who acted, he will have his cultivation crippled." The priestess coldly spoke, her voice was so resolute that it could sever iron, causing the hearts of everyone here to tremble.
"YOU DARE?" The Child of Darkness roared in rage. That devil king similarly erupted forth with terrifying devil might.
"As devil cultivators of the Devil Mountain, you guys should understand the consequences of disobeying the judgement." The priestess waved her hand as the experts behind her stepped out. The Child of Darkness naturally didn't want to obey and wanted to resist. However, with a devil king acting, how could he resist? In just an instant, he was directly captured.
That devil king was also enraged. Three devil kings from the Judiciary Hall impolitely acted against him. When a judgement scepter pierced into his body, that devil king screamed in agony, his voice shaking the heavens and earth, causing the hearts of everyone to tremble.
The Judiciary Devil Hall was as expected of the coldest and coldest devil hall. In their eyes, there was only judgement.
"Bai Qing, you will regret it if you dare to act against my Darkness Devil Hall." The Child of Darkness roared in rage.
