Behind the palace was a huge courtyard. This was where the Sacred Emperor usually entertained his guests. Today, it was packed with people.
Tables and chairs were placed in different areas. Every Heavenly King's Residence and Marquis Residence had their own area.
The highest part of the courtyard was where the Great Void Sacred Emperor and the other members of the royal family sat. Below them were the twenty-seven areas. This was where the twenty-seven Heavenly King's Residences were located.
At the bottom, there were even more tables and chairs. This was where the Marquis Residence, General Residence, and Soldier Residence were located.
Lu Ming brought E Tian, Giant Bear, and the others to the Hidden Dragon Residence's area and sat down quietly. They waited quietly.
E Tian, Giant Bear, and the others were wearing armor. They sat behind Lu Ming and did not attract much attention. They were treated as Lu Ming's bodyguards.
As time passed, more and more people arrived. Soon, Lu Ming and the others were drowned in the crowd.
Half an hour later, everyone arrived!
Lu Ming looked around and saw Nine Extinction Heavenly King, Nine Sabers Heavenly King, and the others.
However, he did not see Thousand Holy Old Heavenly King.
This was because the Heavenly King of the Thousand Holy Heavenly King Residence was not Thousand Holy Old Heavenly King.
"His Majesty has arrived!"
A sharp voice was heard. The Great Void Sacred Emperor, the Crown Prince, and the others stepped into the air and arrived.
"So many experts!"
Lu Ming looked around and saw a group of black-robed men behind the Sacred Emperor. These black-robed men looked calm, but Lu Ming felt a strong sense of danger from them.
These people gave him a lot of pressure.
The Sacred Emperor arrived and sat at the top.
"Greetings, Sacred Emperor!"
Everyone stood up and bowed.
After not seeing him for a while, the Great Void Sacred Emperor looked even more lethargic. His eyes were cloudy and he looked like he was going to pass away at any time.
"Please take a seat!"
The Great Void Sacred Emperor waved his hand and everyone took their seats.
"Everyone, please drink!"
The Great Void Sacred Emperor raised his wine glass and took a sip.
Everyone was filled with doubts. They did not know why the Taixu Saint Emperor had called them here. However, they could only suppress the doubts in their hearts and raise their wine cups to take a sip.
After the Saint Emperor took a sip, his eyes lit up. At this moment, the Taixu Saint Emperor was no longer lethargic. Instead, he was like a terrifying beast that had awakened, emitting a terrifying aura.
Everyone felt their hearts tighten. The reason why the Sage Emperor had gathered them here was finally going to be revealed.
The Great Void Saint Emperor's gaze swept across the entire place, sweeping across everyone.
"I'm sure you're all curious about why I've suddenly summoned you here. I'll get straight to the point. I've summoned you here because there's a traitor among you!"
The Great Void Saint Emperor's voice reverberated throughout the area, sounding a little cold.
"What?"
Everyone was shocked.
"Heavenly King Hao Xin, you secretly colluded with the Tianyi Sacred Dynasty and sold a large number of divine artifacts to them. Do you know your crime?"
Suddenly, the Great Void Sacred Emperor's gaze landed on one of the Heavenly Kings' Manors.
Heavenly King Hao Xin was one of the top eight Heavenly King Mansions in the Taixu Dynasty. Heavenly King Hao Xin's strength was even more shocking. He was a ninth-level Divine Lord.
However, at this moment, Heavenly King Hao Xin's expression changed. He cupped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, there's definitely no such thing. Are you mistaken?"
Heavenly King Hao Xin had indeed cooperated with the Tianyi Sacred Dynasty and traded treasures with each other. In fact, many Heavenly King Mansions were doing this kind of thing. Everyone was well aware of it, but they could not say it out loud. Otherwise, it would not be good.
Since the Great Void Saint Emperor had brought it up, he naturally could not admit it.
"You're still quibbling. I've already collected enough evidence. Do you want me to show it to you?"
The Great Void Saint Emperor said coldly.
"This …"
Heavenly King Hao Xin began to break out in cold sweat. In the end, he cupped his fists and knelt down. He said, "Your Majesty, I have indeed traded divine artifacts with the Tianyi Sacred Dynasty. However, that was many years ago. Your Majesty, please punish me!"
"Have you finally admitted it? Selling divine artifacts to the Tianyi Sacred Dynasty is a crime of treason. You must be punished. Now, cripple your own cultivation. Also, Heavenly King Hao Xin Mansion does not need to exist in the future. I will send people to guard the territory of Heavenly King Hao Xin Mansion! "
The Taixu Dynasty said lightly.
What?
As soon as these words came out, the entire place fell into a dead silence. Except for a few people, most people were shocked.
He had only sold divine artifacts to the Tianyi Sacred Dynasty, but the Great Void Saint Emperor actually wanted to cripple Heavenly King Hao Xin's cultivation and even remove Heavenly King Hao Xin Mansion from the list.
Heavenly King Hao Xin Mansion had existed since the Taixu Dynasty was established. It had experienced countless years, but now the Taixu Dynasty wanted to remove it with just a few words?
Heavenly King Hao Xin was also stunned. His eyes were filled with disbelief.
Originally, he thought that even if the Great Void Saint Emperor found out about this kind of thing, he would only be casually punished and hand over some treasures.
He never dreamed that the Great Void Saint Emperor would actually want to cripple his cultivation.
He was a ninth-level Divine Lord, the top combat power of the Taixu Dynasty. Was he going to be crippled just like that?
This was not a ninth-level Divine Lord. There were not many ninth-level Divine Lords in the entire Taixu Dynasty.
Moreover, he wanted to cripple the entire Heavenly King Hao Xin Mansion.
"Saint Emperor, I refuse to accept this!"
Heavenly King Hao Xin shouted.
"Since you have committed a crime, you have to accept the punishment. Are you going to do it yourself, or should I do it?"
The Great Void Saint Emperor's voice was cold.
"Let's go!"
Suddenly, Heavenly King Hao Xin roared. His body burst up and rushed towards the sky.
The experts he brought followed Heavenly King Hao Xin and rushed into the sky, wanting to escape.
Heavenly King Hao Xin was an overlord after all. He would definitely not allow himself to be captured.
However, when Heavenly King Hao Xin rushed into the sky, a figure suddenly appeared in the sky.
It was an extremely burly figure wearing iron armor.
Military King!
Many people were shocked. They recognized that this was the Great Void Military King, the highest commander of the Grand Council, the Military King who commanded the world's troops.
"Kill!"
The Military King shouted coldly as the battle spear in his hand swept out.
Boom!
A huge battle spear pressed towards Heavenly King Hao Xin.
Heavenly King Hao Xin roared and erupted with all his strength. He wanted to block it, but it was useless. He could not withstand a single blow.
Under the spear, Heavenly King Hao Xin screamed. His arms exploded, and even half of his body exploded. His body fell to the ground and crashed heavily.
Countless runes immediately spread out on the ground, enveloping the entire palace. After Heavenly King Hao Xin crashed to the ground, the ground only shook a little but did not explode.
Heavenly King Hao Xin vomited blood. His aura was extremely weak. He had already been severely injured.
Although Heavenly King Hao Xin had the cultivation of a ninth-level Divine Lord, the Military King was a quasi-emperor. There was still a huge gap between them. He was severely injured in one move.
After severely injuring Heavenly King Hao Xin, the Military King waved his spear again. After a series of explosions, Heavenly King Hao Xin's subordinates were all severely injured.
