"Mm." A calm voice sounded from within the hall. Then, a layer of crimson flames overflowed from within the hall. It was as if a large hand was pushing, and a door opened. "Come in!"
"Yes, my lord!" Tianzheng hesitated for a moment before clenching his teeth and flying through the door.
Then Tianzheng immediately knelt on one knee. "My lord, this little one asks for forgiveness."
At the head of the hall, Ouyang Shuotian sat within a pillar of light that connected the heavens and the earth. However, his figure and appearance were distorted within the pillar of light, and even his voice was somewhat erratic. "What crime have you committed?"
"This little one has already investigated. News of Xu Zhi and Qian Xingyue was leaked by Zhongli Xun!" Tianzheng gritted his teeth. "When Zhongli Xun first entered the Punishment Palace, he was Xu Zhi's subordinate. Xu Zhi was very good to him and he called Xu Zhi Martial Uncle …"
"So Zhongli Feng didn't tell you when he found out about Xu Zhi in the Lower Realm. Instead, he reported it to the Punishment Hall on his own accord after he returned to the Immortal World. Only then did the Punishment Hall begin to investigate Xu Zhi?"
Although Ouyang Shuotian's tone was faint, Tianzheng's heart jumped. He quickly said, "Yes, it was this little one's negligence that allowed Zhongli Xun to leak news of Xu Zhi!"
"That's strange." Ouyang Shuotian smiled. "Xu Zhi is a high level Punishment Envoy of the Punishment Palace. He has been missing for a long time. Now that I received news of him returning to the Celestial Realm, I couldn't be happier. Why would I punish you?"
"My … my lord …" Tianzheng carefully said, "My lord should have known about this immediately. It was up to my lord to decide …"
Before Tianzheng could finish, Ouyang Shuotian interrupted him. "Even if it was me, I would have done the same thing. Get up. You are not guilty of this matter. Zhongli Xun did the right thing! "
"Phew." Tianzheng let out a long breath and got up. "My lord is magnanimous. This little one is not as good as you!"
"Zhongli Xun is an official of the Punishment Palace and is an old friend of Xu Zhi. He naturally informed the Punishment Palace about Xu Zhi's disappearance. It is normal for him to have some selfish motives … "
"Yes, my lord," Tianzheng respectfully said. "However, this little one doesn't understand. Zhongli Xun was the one who leaked the news. How did it become the Dao Master's Heavenly Palace?"
"Don't forget!" Ouyang Shuotian replied, "Yan Xingyue of the Palace of Justice went missing with Xu Zhi and even returned with him. Since the two of them have returned to the Immortal Realm, where are they? It seems like no one knows about it! "
"Yes, whether it's the Palace of Justice or our Palace of Punishment, no one has ever seen these two!"
"That's right." Ouyang Shuotian smiled. "It means that the two of them just returned to the Celestial Realm and went missing again!"
"What … what's going on?"
"Other than the instigator, I'm afraid no one else knows about this!"
"What about the Daoist Master's Heavenly Palace?"
"Did you know?" Ouyang Shuotian asked. "Two Vice Palace Masters of the Palace of Justice have gone missing!"
"Ah?" Tianzheng was shocked. "When did this happen?"
"It's what happened before you went down to investigate!"
"This … this is too strange, isn't it?" Tian Zheng rubbed his chin and said, "Could it be someone from the Punishment Palace who did this?"
Ouyang Shuotian shook his head and said, "Who would be so generous as to directly kill two Deputy Palace Masters? I don't think it's the work of my Punishment Palace …"
"That is?"
"You still don't understand?" Ouyang Shuotian asked.
Tianzheng's eyes suddenly filled with fear. He whispered, "It can't be? The Daoist Master's Palace? "
"Since the rumors mentioned the Daoist Master's Palace, it naturally can't be the Daoist Master's Palace!" Ouyang Shuotian smiled. "They wouldn't cause trouble for themselves and invite trouble for themselves."
"Since it's not the Punishment Palace or the Daoist Master's Palace, then it can only be the Daoist Master's Palace and the Daoist Ancestor's Palace …" Tianzheng scratched his head and said, "Who could it be?"
"Hahaha," Ouyang Shuotian's body swayed as if he was about to soar into the sky. He laughed loudly and said, "It doesn't matter who it is. Think about it yourself!"
"Farewell, my Lord!" Tianzheng hurriedly bowed.
Seeing Ouyang Shuotian's figure disappear and only 49 lightning bolts flashed in the light pillar, Tianzheng smiled and said, "My Lord is really amazing. I thought for a long time but still couldn't figure it out. I suddenly understood when he pointed it out. So this matter was to provoke the Daoist Master's Palace and the Daoist Ancestor's Palace to be jealous of each other! Ordinary immortals only know that Xu Zhi and Qian Xingyue went missing, but they don't know that the two Deputy Palace Masters of the Palace of Justice also went missing. The disappearance of these two Deputy Palace Masters is actually related to the Daoist Ancestor's Palace and the Daoist Master's Palace. This is interesting … "
Tianzheng smiled and turned to leave happily. What he didn't know was that after Ouyang Shuotian's figure condensed in a certain sky, he was still in a hall.
However, his expression now was not as calm as before. He looked to his left and cursed in a low voice, "Damn you, Tianzheng. If it wasn't for this old man's avatar, I would have killed you long ago! I just went to explore the mortal world and caused so much trouble! And that Zhongli Xue, he actually hid the matter of Xu Zhi. However, he was lucky. If he hadn't hidden this matter, he would have died the moment Tianzheng sent me the message! "
"The problem now is that even if he reported the news of Xu Zhi, who would have involved the Daoist Master's Palace? Xu Zhi and Qian Xingyue's disappearance is nothing, but Xi City and Yan Yongxi's disappearance is a big deal … "
"Damn Xi City." Ouyang Shuotian pinched the space between his eyebrows and said with some distress, "He only said that Xu Zhi was involved in the Divine Fragrance Mirror, but where is it? Does he really not know?? "
As he thought, Ouyang Shuotian's consciousness entered his immortal weapon space.
"Xi City." Ouyang Shuotian looked at Xi City and said coldly, "This old man is telling you clearly that the disappearance of you and Yan Yongxi has attracted the attention of the Daoist Master's Palace. This old man no longer has the patience to ask you one last time. Why did Xu Zhi appear in the forbidden area of the Palace of Justice? What exactly is in that forbidden area …"
Xi City narrowed his eyes and looked at Ouyang Shuotian's primordial spirit. "Didn't I say earlier? I was only on duty in that forbidden area and didn't know what was in there. As for how Xu Zhi returned to the Immortal Realm, I also don't know. I only searched Qian Xingyue's memories. That girl's self-destruction caught me off guard and I didn't see it clearly … "
"Alright!" Ouyang Shuotian said coldly, "Since you don't want to cooperate, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
As Ouyang Shuotian's voice fell, Xi City's immortal body exploded into pieces.
"Hmph." Xi City snorted. "Ouyang Shuotian, this old man still had a trace of hope that you would let this old man go. However, after more than a hundred generations of meditation, this old man has already thought it through. Just like how this old man dealt with Xu Zhi, you definitely won't let this old man go, so this old man won't say another word! However, before this old man goes silent, I have a warning for you! "
"What warning?"
"Don't touch anything related to the Divine Ebony Mirror!" Xi City said. "The Divine Ebony Mirror is a whirlpool of death. Anyone who touches it will die! Heavenly Venerate Ye Qiong, Heavenly Venerate Xun Zhi, Qian Xingyue, Xu Zhi, me, Yan Yongxi, and … you!!! "
"Haha!" Ouyang Shuotian laughed loudly. He raised his hand and pointed at Xi City and Yan Yongxi, whose immortal body was also covered in blood. He said, "Yan Yongxi, Deputy Palace Master Yan, what do you say?"
"That's right!" Yan Yongxi said coldly. "Ouyang Shuotian, since you've already revealed your true self in front of us, how can you let us go?"
"Yes, yes." Ouyang Shuotian smiled. "Boom boom …" Fine lightning appeared around Yan Yongxi's body. The lightning was like ants that crazily devoured the golden light from Yan Yongxi's immortal body. Moreover, the lightning was like sawteeth that vibrated around Yan Yongxi's dark green immortal mark. "Ah!" Yan Yongxi couldn't help but cry out. In Ouyang Shuotian's immortal artifact space, all her defenses were gone. Ouyang Shuotian's torture directly pressed against her soul and body.
"I …" Yan Yongxi said in a low voice. "I'll talk …"
"That's right!" Ouyang Shuotian smiled and said indifferently, "Why force this old man to do this?"
"That … that's a …"
Without waiting for Yan Yongxi to finish, Xi City roared, "Yan Yongxi, you're crazy …"
"I …" Yan Yongxi's eyes were filled with confusion.
"Hehe …" Ouyang Shuotian laughed coldly. "Pa pa pa …" Xi City's immortal mark once again exploded …
While Xi City and Yan Yongxi were being interrogated, in Huang Zengtian's Palace of Justice, Mo Feiyan carefully flew to a pavilion and respectfully said, "Lord, this subordinate has come …"
"Come in." Yan Yu's voice came from inside.
"This subordinate greets Lord." Mo Feiyan entered the pavilion and saw Yan Yu standing in front of the window with his hands behind his back. Mo Feiyan respectfully bowed.
"Yes." Yan Yu didn't even turn his head. He flicked his finger and a token fell in front of Mo Feiyan.
"High … high level Tribulation Law Envoy?" Mo Feiyan looked at the token and exclaimed, "Lord, this …"
"This old man just applied for you!" Yan Yu turned around and smiled, "The appointment will come soon."
"Many thanks, Lord." Mo Feiyan knelt on one knee without hesitation, "This subordinate is willing to sacrifice his life for Lord!"
"Get up!" Yan Yu smiled and helped Mo Feiyan up, "You went to the Xiang Yu continent to find this old man. How could this old man not know your loyalty? Moreover, you're now a high level Five Elements Immortal. In the past hundred lifetimes, you've made many contributions. Although it's a bit of an exception to give you the title of high level Tribulation Law Envoy, but … your performance is too good. If this old man didn't apply for you, it would be this old man's fault! "
"This subordinate did all of this." Mo Feiyan stood up and said respectfully, "I didn't expect Lord to remember everything. This subordinate is terrified."
"There's no need to say anything else. You have to work harder on your cultivation!" Yan Yu said, then immediately explained, "Oh, I'm not saying that you're not working hard. Ever since you recovered from your injuries, you've been cultivating with all your might. Your progress is really shocking. It's completely different from before. It's far beyond my imagination. If not for the Heaven Monitoring Immortal Artifact's inspection, I wouldn't have thought that you were Mo Feiyan!"
