Heaven Realm, Heavenly Strategies Bureau.
It was a very special department in the Heaven Realm.
It was established after the Great War of the Three Realms with the purpose of inspecting the underworld and the human world to prevent any crisis.
Although the Heaven Realm was already the strongest force in the three realms, they were still worried about the rise of the two realms below.
The duty of the Heavenly Strategies Bureau was to eliminate all signs of crisis and control the direction of the situation while secretly inspecting.
The Heavenly Mystic Deity King was also known as the Honorable Heavenly Strategies, the highest leader of the Heavenly Strategies Bureau.
After being granted amnesty by the Immortal Emperor, he had been secretly plotting many plans.
Since the human world was already in the Degenerate Age, there was no source of spiritual energy, so his focus was basically on the underworld.
He constantly investigated for news, looking for the remnants of the Heaven-Defying Alliance, and curbing the development of the underworld forces.
Cangxu was just a pawn in his plan.
After many investigations, the Heavenly Mystic Deity King realized that the underworld no longer had the strong desire for revenge like when the Heaven-Defying Alliance was in the past.
The forces of the underworld were attacking each other and plundering resources, which was no longer a problem.
Therefore, the Heavenly Mystic Deity King felt that the underworld had no hope of rising again, so he kicked Cangxu away and handed the task of inspecting the underworld to the members of the Heavenly Strategies Bureau.
But recently, the underworld was no longer peaceful.
After Bei Ming killed a god, Luo Xiu killed another one. What surprised him even more was the appearance of the Ice Ghost Legion from the old era of the Heaven-Defying Alliance.
All of this gave him a bad feeling.
Therefore, he began to inspect the situation of the underworld, focusing most of his attention on Beiqi.
This was because many recent problems revolved around the headquarters of the Heaven-Defying Alliance, Beiqi.
However, he did not find any problems in Beiqi during the inspection.
Although there were many new forces, it was normal. Moreover, the strongest of these forces had not even reached the Ghost Emperor Level, let alone establishing an organization like the Heaven-Defying Alliance.
Therefore, he was relieved once again.
He thought that all the crisis came from the remnants of the Heaven-Defying Alliance, so it was not a problem.
As long as these remnants were all wiped out, the underworld would still be the one that he could rest assured of.
But soon, the Heavenly Mystic Deity King discovered another big problem.
That was the problem of the gods being robbed of their power, and the source could not be found at all, even if the Immortal Emperor was involved.
This gave the Heavenly Mystic Immortal Lord a bad feeling.
Thus, he was prepared to set up a puppet in the human world, a chess piece that would help him find out information and eliminate the danger.
The most important thing was to find the remnant body of the deity whose power had been plundered and left in the human world.
Logically speaking, everything was flawless.
After all, he had never descended to the Lower Realm, so he did not break the rules. His actions could be said to be very secretive.
But who would have thought that the problem would arise just like that?
His chess piece, 'Gangda', had actually encountered a human martial arts cultivator, or in other words, a physical cultivator.
What made him feel even more aggrieved was that the Gundam he created was no match for him.
This was not to say that Gangda's body was not weaker than his opponent's.
Instead, it was the absolute difference in combat techniques.
The Heavenly Mystic Immortal Lord felt rather anxious as he watched Gangda being continuously knocked down.
It was because Gangda was placed in an important position. He was an important link in the human world, so he couldn't afford to lose him.
However, Gangda's opponent was just a normal person, not a member of the Underworld at all. He had no reason to descend to the mortal realm to help.
But soon, he couldn't hold it in anymore.
Because Mu Zhiguang was obviously trying to kill him.
Relying on his powerful martial arts techniques, he continuously attacked Gangda's head, neck, and other vital points.
At this time, Gangda had already been beaten to the point of vomiting blood, but no one went up to help. Because the surroundings were filled with people, the prison guards did not notice anything wrong.
Finally, Gangda could not take it anymore and fell heavily to the ground.
At this time, the smiling Mu Zhiguang's eyes flashed with viciousness, and he smashed his fist towards Gangda's neck.
Under the Heavenly Mystic Immortal Lord's disbelieving gaze, Gangda covered his throat and widened his eyes.
After struggling for a while, he slowly lost his life.
At this moment, the originally noisy cafeteria instantly fell silent.
Everyone seemed very frightened, because Gangda, who originally had hopes of becoming a tyrant in the prison, was actually beaten to death.
And he was beaten to death in a duel.
At this moment, they looked at Mu Zhiguang with eyes full of fear. At the same time, they knew that Mu Zhiguang had gotten himself into big trouble.
Usually, it was fine to do whatever he wanted, but when someone died, it was like crossing a minefield, and the consequences were extremely serious.
Just as the prisoners were shocked by this, a wisp of soul floated out of the already dead Gangda's body.
At the same time, the power from the Six Paths of Reincarnation appeared.
At this moment, the Heavenly Mystic Immortal Lord finally could not sit still.
He still had important uses for Yue Yao's soul. Although there was an accident now, he had to retrieve it and prepare for the next step.
Therefore, he made his move.
Far away in the Heaven Realm, he circulated all the divine power in his body and crossed realms to try to interfere with the direction of Yue Yao's soul. He was prepared to intercept Yue Yao's soul before the Six Paths of Reincarnation took it away.
Doing so would consume a huge amount of divine power, but the Heavenly Mystic Immortal Lord could no longer care about this.
At this moment, he was betting on a short moment. As long as he was not discovered, it would not be a problem.
Even if the Great Emperor of the Underworld found out later, he could deny it without evidence!
His divine power slowly gathered in the sky above the prison.
But just as he was about to make his move, the power in the Six Paths of Reincarnation suddenly strengthened and took Yue Yao's soul away.
Seeing this, the Heavenly Mystic Immortal Lord's face turned extremely gloomy, and he immediately withdrew his power.
After a short period of contemplation, his figure, who was in the Heavenly Policy Mirror, slowly disappeared on the spot.
This time, he decided to sneak into the Six Paths of Reincarnation again.
Just like before, he quietly took Yue Yao's soul away from the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
While crossing realms, the Heavenly Mystic Immortal Lord felt very upset.
Before this, he had never miscalculated, but he did not expect that his important chess piece would be defeated by an ordinary martial arts cultivator in the mortal world. It was really embarrassing.
Soon, through the torn space passage, his figure appeared in the Six Paths of Reincarnation shrouded in mist.
Following the aura of the mark, he found Yue Yao's soul drifting forward.
But just as he was about to take Yue Yao away like last time, a bell suddenly rang in the surroundings.
Hearing the bell, the Heavenly Mystic Immortal Lord's expression changed, and he immediately wanted to tear the space to escape.
But the space crack he tore was instantly restored to its original state after the bell rang.
At this moment, the Heavenly Mystic Immortal Lord knew that he was in trouble.
As he stared in horror, a figure with countless colorful Rule Strings floating around him appeared in front of him.
"Great Emperor of Dong Yue!"
"Heavenly Mystic, you've crossed the line!"
"How did you find out that I'm here!"
"It's just a coincidence. I was just checking out the Six Paths of Reincarnation, and I didn't expect to see you here. I think I saw you trying to steal the soul!"
Hearing this, the Heavenly Mystic Immortal Lord's expression turned ugly, but he knew that he could not leave easily.
Now that he had been caught, no one could save him except the Immortal Emperor!
Seeing that the Heavenly Mystic Immortal Lord was silent, the Great Emperor of Dong Yue waved his hand, and a brass bell suddenly fell, trapping the Heavenly Mystic Immortal Lord within it before flying back to his hand.
At this moment, the Great Emperor of Dong Yue could not help but laugh.
Just now, he received a message from the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
The message was blank, without any indication. But the confused Great Emperor of Dong Yue still decided to come to the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
Because the Six Paths of Reincarnation was very important to the Underworld, there was no room for error.
As a result, he caught the Heavenly Mystic Immortal Lord who was about to take Yue Yao's soul.
The Heavenly Mystic Immortal Lord could not give any reason to refute.
This was because this was the Six Paths of Reincarnation, not the territory of the Heavenly Realm. It was a forbidden area of the Underworld, so it was not a place that could be entered and exited at will.
Back when the Heavenly Realm thoroughly investigated the Six Paths of Reincarnation, they used the Heaven Defying Alliance as an excuse to have the three Immortal Emperors personally negotiate with the three Great Emperors of the Underworld to thoroughly investigate the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
But this time, there was no reason, no excuse, and they were sneaking in. This had violated the Underworld's taboo.
It was reasonable for the Great Emperor of Dong Yue to make a move.
As the Great Emperor of Dong Yue waited, a golden statue slowly appeared in the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
The golden light forced the mist away, and the statue became vivid and lifelike, with the ten prayer beads revolving around it.
The newcomer was East Monarch Taiyi.
"Heavenly Mystic has violated the taboo, you did not do anything wrong. But he is my subordinate, let him go!" East Monarch Taiyi looked at the Great Emperor of Dong Yue indifferently.
"Reason!"
"This is a strand of your rule, I will return it to you now to offset Heavenly Mystic's mistake!" As he spoke, a strand of rule ribbon floated out from the prayer beads on top of East Monarch Taiyi's head.
This was the strand of rule ribbon that the Great Emperor of Dong Yue had given out when he took the blame for Lu Wu.
After receiving this strand of rule ribbon, the Great Emperor of Dong Yue nodded and released the brass bell with a wave of his hand, and the figure of Heavenly Mystic Deity emerged from the bell.
East Monarch Taiyi nodded and reached out to grab the still confused Heavenly Mystic Deity Deity into the prayer beads. His figure suddenly disappeared from the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
Seeing this, the Great Emperor of Dong Yue smiled.
It seemed like he did not expect to retrieve the lost strand of rule ribbon in this way.
He turned to look at the Six Paths of Reincarnation fog and murmured softly:
"Thank you!"
Then, his figure slowly disappeared into the Six Paths of Reincarnation fog.
…
Lu Wu and Lil Beili, who saw this scene, turned around and high-fived each other.
They could not help but smile.
The ultimate goal of digging this trap was to make the Heavenly Realm passive, so that the Great Emperor of Dong Yue could seize the initiative.
Previously, Lu Wu could be said to have owed the Great Emperor of Dong Yue.
If it weren't for him, Lu Wu would have been caught red-handed by Donghuang Taiyi.
As a result, the Great Monarch of the East Mountain lost one of the three thousand strands of laws around him. It was a huge loss.
However, Lu Wu and Lil Bei Li were already discussing how to punish the Heavenly Mystic Deity Lord when they realized that he was up to no good.
Their ultimate goal wasn't just to remove the pawn that the Heavenly Mystic Immortal Monarch had placed in the Human World, but to dig a trap for the Heavenly Mystic Immortal Monarch who was hiding behind the scenes to jump into it.
As for what to do, Lu Wu and Little Beili had a discussion and finally decided on the plan.
He first killed Gangda, and then had his soul enter the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
This was also the reason why the Six Paths of Reincarnation's suction had strengthened after Gangda's death, preventing the Sky Mystic Immortal Lord from intercepting him.
As expected, the Heavenly Mystic Deity Lord took the bait and once again entered the Six Paths of Reincarnation, intending to take away Yue Yao's soul using the same method as before.
However, this time, Lil Bei Li controlled the Six Paths of Reincarnation in advance and sent a blank message to the Great Monarch of the East Mountain, attracting his attention.
As expected, the Great Monarch of the East Mountain came after hearing the news and wanted to investigate the situation. Just like that, he 'coincidentally' caught the Heavenly Mystic.
This time, Donghuang Taiyi had no reason to ask the Great Monarch of the East Mountain to hand over Yue Yao, so he could only return the strand of law to make up for the Heavenly Mystic's mistake.
Lu Wu and Lil Bei Li's plan was a perfect success!
…
Meanwhile, in a certain prison, Mu Zhiguang, who had committed a huge crime, was locked in solitary confinement.
He robbed a bank with a water gun, was caught smoking calmly, and killed someone after a few days in prison.
The prison guards were really annoyed by his performance.
What awaited Mu Zhiguang was a death sentence!
Lu Wu and Lil Bei Li were very calm about this.
The soul could be retrieved, and the only thing they had to give up was Black Tiger's body.
They could get a new one another day, perfect!
