The First Palace Master, who had not shown himself all this while, appeared. The moment he appeared, he casually broke Elder Long's palm imprint.
The Second Palace Master's expression didn't change at all, but his pupils shrank slightly. He hid it well, bowed, and said, "Palace Master!"
Thump! Thump!
The martial artists in the square all came to their senses and knelt down one by one. Many of them were extremely excited.
Some had been at the Demon-slaying Hall for one or two hundred years but they had never seen the legendary Grand Master.
Some of the warriors from the various clans who had participated in the small battlefield were so excited that their faces had turned red. It was indeed the wisest decision for them to stay and watch the show.
Not only did they get to watch a great show, but they were also fortunate enough to meet the Second Hall Master and the First Hall Master. Just this alone was enough for them to brag about for the rest of their lives.
The First Palace Master did not look old from the outside. He was tall and sturdy, and his face was unwrinkled. His skin was smooth and supple, and his red hair casually draped over his shoulders.
Just like that, he stood proudly in mid-air, not releasing any aura from his body. He gave off the feeling of a mountain range, suppressing everyone present to the point that they couldn't breathe.
"What realm is this?"
Lu Li realized he could move again. He turned around slowly and looked at Grand Master. He stared at Grand Master's eyes and felt he was sucked into them. It was not a pair of eyes, but a world.
Grand Master didn't even look at Lu Li. He was staring at the statue of Emperor of Heaven Reverse in the distance.
The statue was very tall and could be easily seen from here.
The scripture shone brightly, and characters flew out one by one, jumping in the air.
Many warriors used psychic power to check and found something strange about the statue of Emperor of Heaven Reverse.
Ever since the statue was built, it had lit up a few times. But every time, it was to bestow divine power to the martial artists and nurture the next generation of prodigies.
This time, there was no one near the statue of the Great Emperor. The light from the scripture did not move, nor did it envelop anyone.
This meant that the statue was not preparing to bestow divine power this time. If that was the case, why did the statue light up?
Grand Master must have come out because of the strange behavior of the statue of Emperor of Heaven Reverse. He stopped Patriarch Long's move at once. Could it be … that the strange behavior of the statue of Emperor of Heaven Reverse was caused by Lu Li?
But Lu Li didn't do anything. He didn't even get close to the statue. This place was so far away from the south of the city. How could it have anything to do with Lu Li?
There were too many questions that they could not figure out. No one dared to make a sound as they quietly waited for the First Palace Master's next move.
Many gazed at the statue of Emperor of Heaven Reverse to see what would happen next.
Nothing happened to the statue!
Countless characters jumped a few times before returning to the scripture. The light of the scripture quickly dimmed and returned to its original state.
Grand Master waited until the book stopped glowing. Without looking at the others, he said calmly, "Ji Mengtian, Yang Xuan, Lu Suan, Lu Suan, and Die Feiyu will be exiled to the Blood Realm for three years. As for the other matters … let them go."
With that said, Grand Master vanished on the spot, along with Lu Li and Little White.
Lu Li and Little White didn't stay together. Without any sign, the man and the beast disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Oh …"
Countless people couldn't help but exclaim, but they quickly shut their mouths.
As soon as the Grand Master came out, the tables were turned. Not only did he humiliate Deputy Master in public, he also exiled Ji Mengtian, Yang Xuan, Lu Suan and the others for three years.
That … was equivalent to offending the four forces and the powerful warriors of the Demon-slaying Hall behind the four forces.
Of course, no one had any objections, because he was the Head Palace Master, the number one person in the world, and his words carried enormous weight!
"Swish, swish, swish ~"
Many people's expressions changed. Deputy Master remained expressionless, but in the depth of his eyes, there was a glint of anger and … confusion!
Not only Deputy Master, but everyone else was confused as well.
Grand Master didn't come out at the beginning, which meant that he didn't want to get involved. He had indirectly compromised with Deputy Master.
Why did he come out all of a sudden and humiliate Deputy Master and the four forces in public?
What was the meaning of the glowing statue of Emperor of Heaven Reverse?
Did the First Palace Master suddenly decide to intervene because of the statue's glow?
Many people were filled with confusion. Ji Mengtian, Lu Suan and the other four's expressions changed. Die Feiyu burst into tears. She was scared out of her wits.
"Blood Realm!"
Lu Suan forced a smile. Blood Realm was a small world, famous at the Central Plains for its dangers.
The five of them could be trapped in there forever. Fortunately, Grand Master showed mercy by only punishing them for three years. If they were exiled for dozens of years, they would definitely die in there.
Lu Liantian and the other patriarchs from the Yang Family, Samsara Palace and Pavilion of Blossoms were complaining to themselves.
Grand Master's order was a slap to the faces of the four forces. What's more, Ji Mengtian and the others might die.
"Whoosh ~"
A man emerged. It was Patriarch of Law Enforcement at the plaza. He looked at a patriarch coldly and said, "Patriarch Li, what are you waiting for?"
Patriarch Li was taken aback. Then, he waved his hand and said, "Take Ji Mengtian and the others down. Bring them out of the Demon-slaying Grounds and send them to the Blood Realm."
Several warriors came over quickly. They took Ji Mengtian and the others and rushed out of the city. Patriarch Li went with the team and escorted them.
Lu Liantian and the others were relieved. Patriarch Li used to be from the Hades Society. He was a member of the four forces. He could take care of the five.
Clearly, Patriarch of Law Enforcement didn't want to kill Ji Mengtian, Yang Xuan and the others. Otherwise, if another patriarch was sent, the five would be doomed.
"Let's call it a day. Dismissed!"
The Second Palace Master waved his hand coldly. Then, he disappeared in the air with a flash.
Patriarch of Law Enforcement walked into a hall as well. The matter seemed to have come to an end.
However!
The tens of thousands of people at the plaza didn't leave, including Patriarch Yang who lost his hand. Clearly, they hadn't come back to their senses from the turn of events.
What happened today was so shocking and full of twists and turns!
When Lu Li came out from the small battlefield, he was taken down and tried in court. In the end, under the coercion of Deputy Master, Lu Li was sentenced to death in public.
During the execution, something happened again. First, Little White bit off Patriarch Yang's wrist and then Lu Li bit off his other hand.
Then, Ji Nu and the others were killed, which lured Deputy Master out again.
In the end, something happened to the statue of Emperor of Heaven Reverse. Grand Master came and took Lu Li and Little White away, turning the tables.
It had only been a short while since Lu Li was brought out. The tables had been turned several times. Many people didn't even have the time to react.
There were many questions and, of course, many things were confirmed!
Take Lu Li for example. Lu Li had committed a heinous crime, but when Grand Master came out, he cleared everything up with one sentence.
Not only was Lu Li innocent, but he was going to soar?
The most powerful man in the world was protecting him. It would be hard for him not to rise.
Even when Jiang Qiling was granted divine energy, Grand Master didn't do anything.
"Lu Li!"
The image of Lu Li's ferocious and murderous face appeared in many people's minds. Somehow, they felt uneasy.
If this rebellious, brutal, and tyrannical young man grew up, the entire Divine Great Land would be turned upside down by him.
