Ethereal World
The corner of Zong Heng's mouth twitched violently. The anger in his heart was about to burst out. If Gu Xuan was not a genius who could challenge those of a higher level, he would have killed Gu Xuan on the spot.
"Gu Xuan, it's not up to you to decide whether or not I'm the Law Enforcement Elder. It's also not up to you to discuss. I've already tolerated you for a long time. If you still don't know what's good for you, I don't mind fighting you to the death."
Zong Heng's face darkened as he said slowly.
"Alright." Gu Xuan nodded. "Now, you have two choices. One is to imprison me and punish me according to the rules of the sect. The second choice is to release me directly and forget about this matter."
"Write it off?" Zong Heng sneered and shook his head. "That's impossible. First, you severely injured my nephew, then you killed my disciple. Now you're here to cause trouble. If I let you go just like that, where would I put my face?"
Although Zong Heng knew that he couldn't kill Gu Xuan, he couldn't let Gu Xuan go easily. This was a matter of face. After so many things had happened, it wouldn't be long before the sect would be in an uproar. If Gu Xuan really swaggered out today, where would he put his face as the Law Enforcing Elder?
"So you want to become my enemy?" Gu Xuan raised his eyebrows. Clearly, he was not surprised by Zong Heng's decision.
"Enmity? Gu Xuan, you think too highly of yourself. " Zong Heng sneered as disdain flashed across his eyes. "The reason why I tolerate you is not because I'm afraid of you. It's because you have the protection of the Sect. As for you, I don't care about you at all."
"You don't think that I haven't even reached the Zong Realm, do you?" Gu Xuan looked at Zong Heng and smiled playfully.
"Sure enough, just because you have a little bit of talent, you can speak such arrogant words." Zong Heng sneered. "You may have great talent now, and have a 10% chance of becoming a dazzling expert in the future. However, there is a 90% chance that you will fade into the crowd or die halfway. If you reach the Zong realm, I will naturally not be your opponent, but who can say that you will reach it?"
"I've seen too many geniuses. Ten geniuses like you can produce one top warrior at the late stage of the Zong Realm. There's a one-in-ten chance that a warrior at the late stage of the Zong Realm might have the same status as me, but who can be sure that it's you?"
Zong Heng sneered, "What harm can it do to me if I have a grudge with you? Decades later, I will still be in the Zong Realm. With your arrogant character, I am afraid you will have already fallen. What can you do to me?"
Gu Xuan shook his head indifferently. Why did people always feel that it was difficult for him to achieve great things with his personality? An ordinary genius might be able to become an expert by following the rules. However, if one truly wanted to become a peerless expert, mediocrity and mediocrity had no hope at all.
"Men!" Zong Heng shouted. Two Law Enforcement Disciples walked out from the back and stood beside Gu Xuan.
"When Gu Xuan fought with his senior, he was ruthless and almost killed him. Moreover, he killed a Law Enforcement Disciple. He is lawless. Imprison Gu Xuan in the Empty Spirit World for the time being and await his punishment."
"Yes!"
The two of them replied respectfully. Their Peak Zong Realm auras erupted and locked onto Gu Xuan.
Since Gu Xuan was able to kill Liu Yuan, Zong Heng naturally had to send a stronger Law Enforcement Disciple to guard him. Moreover, the Law Enforcement Disciple had risen from the Seven Star Zong Realm to the Peak Zong Realm to ensure that nothing went wrong.
"Junior Gu, come with us." The two of them walked to Gu Xuan and one of them said expressionlessly.
"Alright." Gu Xuan nodded. He did not resist and was led out of the Law Enforcement Hall by the two of them.
After stepping out of the door, Gu Xuan stopped and turned to look at Zong Heng. He slowly said, "Zong Heng, it will be your biggest mistake to have a grudge with me."
"Take this arrogant man away!" Zong Heng's face was filled with disdain. He waved his hand and was extremely disgusted with Gu Xuan.
Not only did Gu Xuan have a grudge with him, but he was also the kind of person that he hated the most. In his opinion, Gu Xuan's character was completely arrogant after having a little talent.
He, Zong Zong, had cultivated for more than seventy years. Although he had relied on a special opportunity to reach the Zong Realm and it was difficult for him to improve his cultivation, Gu Xuan, who was just a mere Zong Realm, could be compared to him.
Although Gu Xuan had the potential to become an expert, potential was just potential. Just because he had talent, he thought that he could be on par with the experts. He was overestimating himself.
"You can't cultivate in the Empty Spirit World and you can't absorb any energy from heaven and earth. Even if you use elixirs to cultivate, it will be greatly reduced. The sect won't be able to find Gu Xuan's whereabouts so quickly. I will imprison him for half a year and let him exhaust his talent." Zong Heng sneered.
Gu Xuan was quickly brought to the so-called Empty Spirit World by the two law enforcement disciples.
The so-called Empty Spirit World was just an ordinary-looking house. However, there was an array outside the house that could isolate the Qi of heaven and earth, so that the people in the house couldn't absorb any of it.
This was also similar to the prisons used to imprison warriors in the world. For warriors, ordinary imprisonment was meaningless. Only by isolating the Qi of heaven and earth and obstructing their cultivation would they feel tormented.
However, it was impossible for Zong Heng to use the Empty Spirit World to deal with Gu Xuan.
Gu Xuan's cultivation didn't need to absorb the Qi of heaven and earth at all. He just needed to devour treasures and absorb the highest quality Qi. Even if Gu Xuan absorbed the ordinary Qi of heaven and earth, he wouldn't be able to absorb it.
After the two law enforcement disciples left, Gu Xuan took out a piece of Ice Crystal Chilling Marrow and held it in his hand for Yun Xi to start refining.
A while later, a sliver of a smile appeared on Gu Xuan's lips. His cultivation was not affected at all in the so-called Empty Spirit World.
"Anyway, there are still seven pieces of Ice Crystal Chalcedony. I'll just wait in there. It probably won't be long before Zong Heng asks me to come out."
Gu Xuan thought to himself. He was fearless.
The reason he came to the Law Enforcement Hall was that he had anticipated the possibility of being imprisoned. The reason he came was mainly because he was confident that Zong Heng wouldn't imprison him for too long.
When Gu Xuan left, Yang Yu also left the Successor Courtyard and went to the residence of Elder Chuan Gong. There were two reasons for this. First, he wanted to ask Elder Chuan Gong about cultivation.
Second, he wanted to report Gu Xuan's potential.
Gu Xuan also chose to allow this. If he wanted to see Mo Jingyun, he had to show his talent. There was no need to hide.
