The female Master of the Laws before him was clearly much more troublesome to deal with than the immature youth.
Just now, she'd used the Laws of Time to reverse time. Even someone who'd condensed a time dao heart wouldn't be able to use it with ease. However, she'd used it with ease just now.
"Big Sister Ru, I was wrong." The berated youth hung his head resentfully.
He really had snuck out this time. Back in the clan, he'd always hear his brothers talk about how fun the outside world was. He couldn't resist his curiosity and decided to come out and take a look.
As soon as he came out, he ran into Zhou Wu and was tricked into coming here.
"If I kill her, I'll obtain the complete dao heart of time."
As he stared at the female Master of the Laws, God Emperor Zhou Wu suddenly had this thought. Among the myriad great daos, the Dao of Time was even more difficult to comprehend than the Dao of the Five Elements.
Time Acceleration, Time Stop, and Time Reverse.
No matter which of these three techniques he used, they were all extremely useful in actual combat.
The female Master of the Laws turned to look at God Emperor Zhou Wu. His eyes instantly lit up with friendliness, and he nodded and smiled back.
She'd sensed it.
He hadn't expected that just a thought flashing through his mind would cause her to notice his killing intent. It seemed that this existence really was on a much higher level than the youth, the Master of the Laws.
The female Master of the Laws stared at Zhou Wu once more, then retracted her gaze.
The other great emperors noticed the change in her expression and turned to look at Zhou Wu. They didn't need to think too much to know why the Master of the Laws was looking at him.
He'd once wanted to kill him.
"Then tell me, why did you come all the way here?" asked the female Master of the Laws.
"I …. I followed him. He could tell that I was from the Land of the Laws and said that someone had broken the balance of the Laws. He asked me to come and help." The youth pointed at God Emperor Zhou Wu.
"Is that so?"
The female Master of the Laws glanced at Zhou Wu, but the smile on her lips wasn't a real one. She retracted her gaze, patted the young man's head gently, and said earnestly. "Fortunately, your skills aren't that good, and your comprehension of the Laws isn't particularly thorough. Otherwise, you'd already be dead by someone with ulterior motives. The outside world isn't as good as you think. Danger lurks in every corner. I don't know how many people want to use us to obtain a shortcut to condense their Dao Heart. You have to grow up in the future.
Remember, don't follow everyone who comes looking for you. As Masters of the Laws, we'll naturally be able to detect it in advance if someone tries to break the balance. Got it? "
Caressing the youth's head, the female Master of the Laws cast Zhou Wu a few more glances.
From the moment his killing intent was seen through, Zhou Wu maintained a friendly smile on his face. He no longer thought about killing the laws to obtain the Dao heart.
Not only that, but when the female Master of the Laws looked at him, he actually spoke to her.
"Please forgive me. I didn't know that your younger brother is still underage. It is my mistake to rashly bring him to such a dangerous place."
Zhou Wu said sincerely. "But the Masters of the Laws exist to balance the power of the Laws, as well as to balance the internal factions of the God Race. These people are the lords of the God Mountains, yet they want to act against me, the Heaven's Chosen Emperor. They want to wipe out the Bai Clan, a clan that has done its duty for the God Race. Although Zhou Wu is the God Emperor, his abilities are limited.
It's limited, so please judge it and give us justice. "
"You're the one complaining first," snorted Zhao Qianhe.
The female Master of the Laws gazed indifferently at Zhou Wu's sincerity. He could clearly sense her hostility towards him, but he still acted as if he didn't mean it when he apologized. Then, he changed the subject and asked her to uphold justice.
He was eloquent and shrewd.
It wasn't surprising that such a person could trick her younger brother, who'd never left his clan.
However, she agreed with one thing Zhou Wu said. The Masters of the Laws truly existed to balance the power of the Laws, to balance the internal factions of the God Race, and to wipe out those who provoked or deliberately altered the Laws.
Although she felt enmity towards him, he was still the God Emperor of the God Race. If someone really wanted to deal with him and wipe out his entire clan, she would have to step forward and deal with it. Corpses had piled up like mountains, and the dead numbered in the hundreds of thousands.
As for whether he was telling the truth or not, she didn't need to ask.
A jade scepter appeared in her hand. Through it, she could see everything that had happened. She could see everything that had happened, including the cause and effect. However, this jade scepter could only see what had happened in the past. It couldn't predict the future.
Her eyelids drooped, and the Master of the Laws began flipping through everything that had happened here.
"Hm?"
Suddenly, the Master of the Laws furrowed his brows as he examined the situation through the jade scepter. Then she opened her eyes, looked around, and finally locked onto Ye Zichen.
"What's your relationship with him?" asked the Master of the Laws expressionlessly.
"What is it?" Chao Feng furrowed his brows.
"If I ask you, just answer. I've already let you off for trying to kill the Master of the Laws."
"What a joke!"
"The Laws can't be challenged. It seems I need to …."
Just as Chao Feng and the Master of the Laws were about to fight, Ye Rong suddenly spoke up. "He's my son. If you have any problems, come at me."
The Master of the Laws stared at Ye Rong for a long while.
Then, she saw a flash of surprise flash through her eyes. However, she hid it so well that no one noticed.
"Let me ask you this: before I arrived, what were you planning to do?"
"Annihilate the Bai Family!"
"Why? Just for that ordinary-looking youth? "
"That's right!" Ye Rong didn't show any sign of backing down. "So what if I cut off my son's arm and ruined his eye? So what if I annihilate the Bai Family? What, you want to stop me? "
"If that's the case, I understand the gist of it."
The Master of the Laws nodded calmly and put the jade scepter away.
She looked at the God Emperor's side and Great Emperor Chao Feng's, and a smile tugged at her lips. Zhou Wu's eyes brimmed with confidence. Given the Master of the Laws' impartiality, she absolutely wouldn't ignore the Bai Family's destruction.
So long as she stood on his side, and with her nimble manipulation of the Dao of Time, even if Chao Feng and the others joined forces, Zhou Wu was confident he could suppress them one by one.
This wouldn't just resolve the Bai Family's crisis; it would also resolve his greatest worry.
Once everything was over, he could rely on this debt of gratitude to get closer to the Master of the Laws.
Perhaps ….
The Dao Heart of the Laws would be in his grasp.
From the Master of the Laws' expression, it seemed she was about to announce the result.
The members of the Profound Pavilion and Star Altar clenched their weapons. They'd received word that if the Master of the Laws sided with the God Emperor, they'd have to go against the will of the Laws to annihilate the Bai Family.
At that moment, the Master of the Laws glanced at Zhou Wu and smiled.
When he saw her smile, Zhou Wu's eyes flashed with delight. Chao Feng and the others frowned deeply. Then the Master of the Laws turned to Ye Rong and smiled.
"You want to annihilate the Bai Family, right? Haven't you changed your mind?"
"Yes! So what? "said Ye Rong.
