Meeting of the Immortal Region's upper echelons
"Uncle-Master, please seek justice for Senior Brother Jin!"
Sun Yuanjia, a disciple of Great Emperor Qingming of the sacred land of the Immortal Region, knelt on the ground, covered in wounds. Behind him were his fellow disciples, all of whom knelt on the ground despite the injuries on their bodies.
Their eyes were either filled with anger or tears.
"What are you all doing? The sect master is in seclusion. What are you doing?"
An elder scolded. Sun Yuanjia looked up at the elder with a frown.
"Uncle-Master Liu, Senior Brother Jin … died in battle."
"What?" The elder in front took a step back, and the pupils of the other elders in front of the hall shrank. "Martial Nephew Jin died in battle? Weren't you all going to help the Underworld clear out the wraiths? How could you have died? "
"The clearing out mission had been going smoothly, but just as it was about to end, the Underworld harbored ill intentions. The Underworld is secretly plotting against us by providing us with false information. Let Senior Brother Jin lead us to deal with about ten thousand vengeful spirits. Before we went, he swore that the wraiths wouldn't be stronger than an Earth Immortal. But when we got there, the weakest of the wraiths were at least at the Earth Immortal stage. There were even quite a few sky immortal wraiths. We were no match for them. Senior Brother Jin died in order to cover our retreat! "
Sun Yuanjia pursed his lips, his eyes red. He clenched his fists tightly.
"If you don't believe me, you can ask my fellow disciples behind me."
"The Underworld harbored ill intentions. They deserve death!"
"Senior Brother Jin."
The other disciples either cursed or complained tearfully. The surrounding elders did not know how to handle the situation. Sun Yuanjia took the opportunity to move a few steps forward and kowtow three times to the ground.
"Uncle-Master, please come out of seclusion."
Thump thump thump.
"Uncle-Master, please come out of seclusion."
Thump thump thump.
"Uncle-Master, please come out of seclusion."
Even though the blood on Sun Yuanjia's forehead had already dyed the white bricks in front of the hall red, he didn't realize it and continued to do the same thing.
Under his lead, the disciples in the back also imitated him and began to buckle their fists.
The surrounding elders wanted to stop him, but under such circumstances, they were unable to do so.
Creak.
The palace door was pushed open.
Great Emperor Qingming walked out of the inner hall with a weary expression. He was dressed in a green robe as he looked at the disciples below.
"What do you want? Do you still have me, the Sect Leader, and all the Elders in your eyes?"
"Sect Master, Senior Brother Jin …" Before Sun Yuanjia could finish his sentence, Great Emperor Qingming raised his hand and struck him across the air.
Pu.
Sun Yuanjia spat out a large mouthful of blood as he stumbled backwards. He only stopped when he hit the pillar at the very back.
"Senior Brother Sect Leader."
The other elders couldn't help but speak up. Great Emperor Qingming narrowed his eyes and snorted.
"I think you're the one with evil intentions."
"Martial Uncle Sect Leader, I don't know." Sun Yuanjia clutched his chest and knelt on the ground. He gritted his teeth and said, "Senior Brother Jin died in battle. He was your disciple, the top disciple of our sect. I did not do anything wrong!"
"That's right. There are thousands of ways to deal with this matter, but you chose the most extreme one. Even now, you still don't know. Looks like I can only grant you death. "
A huge handprint appeared in the air. The surrounding disciples and Elders seemed to want to speak.
"Who dares stop me?"
Everyone shut their mouths.
"Sun Yuanjia, I ask you, are you from the Demon World? If you answer truthfully, I can let you go on account of your contributions to our sect. "
Great Emperor Qingming frowned. Sun Yuanjia's lips curled into an impudent smile.
"Hahaha, what a joke. I, Sun Yuanjia, have been in the sect for a hundred years, but in the end, I ended up as a demon spy. Laughable, truly laughable. Fine, if Sect Master Master thinks that I, Sun Yuanjia, am a demon spy, then just kill me. "
"Hmph, then I'll fulfill your wish."
The handprint in the air suddenly fell downwards. Just as the handprint was about to hit him, Sun Yuanjia sneered.
"Martial Uncle suspects me. I, Sun Yuanjia, accept my fate. But I still have to tell you that the Yellow Emperor's reincarnation also died with Senior Brother Jin. "
Boom.
The handprint in the air exploded. Great Emperor Qingming instantly appeared in front of Sun Yuanjia.
"Repeat what you just said."
Violent Spiritual Energy surrounded Sun Yuanjia, but he still raised his head with a smile and gritted his teeth.
"Ye Zichen is the reincarnation of the Yellow Emperor, right?"
Whoosh.
Great Emperor Qingming, who had been standing in front of the hall, disappeared in an instant. The rest of the disciples and elders turned to look at the Great Elder.
"Disperse. Take Sun Yuanjia to recuperate."
Bang.
Suiren, who was wearing animal skin clothes, smashed the granite table in front of him.
"Qingming, what you're talking about is true."
"I don't dare to confirm the accuracy of the information given by the inner sect disciples. However, I once left a mark on the Yellow Emperor's reincarnation, so I couldn't find it just now. "
Great Emperor Qingming replied with a frown. Suiren's face turned ashen.
"What do you think we should do?"
"Brother Yellow Emperor is of great importance to our Immortal Region. I think we should demand an explanation from the Underworld." The one who spoke was the Fire Emperor, Shun.
"Yes, the Human Emperor is very important. We don't necessarily have to make a move against Hell. At the very least, we have to ask them about the current situation. "
The Earth Emperor, Yu the Great, also spoke.
"Don't you think there's something fishy about this?" The Water Emperor, Yao, couldn't help but speak up. "Why would the Human Emperor suddenly meet with danger under these circumstances? The one who delivered the news was a disciple of the sacred land of the Immortal Region, and they're pointing the finger at the Underworld. I think we should consider this carefully. "
"I agree with Brother Yao," the Wood Emperor, Ku, spoke up.
"Zhuanxu, what do you think …" Suiren asked.
"What else is there to consider?" Zhuanxu frowned as he looked around. "Emperor Ku, the Yellow Emperor is your great-grandfather …"
"Uncle, he's only a reincarnation. Also, we shouldn't …"
"What shouldn't?" Emperor Ku glared. "He's still the Yellow Emperor in his reincarnation, and he's also my great-grandfather. Suiren, Shennong and Fuxi aren't here, so you're our leader. Tell us what to do. I suggest we do it! If the Underworld doesn't find the Human Emperor, then even if the Great Sacred Emperor Equaling Heavens personally takes action, I'll fight him. I'd like to see just how much stronger an Immortal King is compared to a complete stage Human Immortal like me! "
"The Human Emperor is indeed of great importance to our Immortal Region. Sending troops might be a little too impulsive, but we still need to have an explanation. How about this, Emperor Ku, Zhuanxu, and I will go to the Underworld. The rest of you stay here. Any objections? "
Suiren asked with a frown. Zhuanxu wanted to speak up, but after thinking about it, he would also go to the Underworld. As long as he was there, the situation wouldn't be too bad.
"No."
The others nodded, including Suiren.
