Chapter 215: You All Went Too Far

Chapter 215: You All Went Too Far

An unbridled aura suddenly weighed down upon the area. Qin Huamao’s figure appeared in the sky, and he surveyed the scene, catching sight of the corpses littering the west side of the provincial capital. “Who did this?” he asked, his voice as cold as ice.

After 100 years of being here, Qin Huamao already considered the people of Anxi Province as his own people. And now, these innocent people had their peaceful lives ruined by the cruel, merciless actions of these disciples.

Under the full weight of Qin Huamao’s peak Dao Foundation stage aura, Zhang Haobo’s legs went a bit soft, but he managed to brace himself. He came forward and said, “Martial Uncle Qin, please do not rush to anger just yet, there is a bit of a misunderstanding here.”

From their journey here, each of them had come to understand that the Envoy Qin Huamao was a bit different from most people, as he deeply cherished the common folk. Quan Hongyu and He Qiwen’s actions were no different from slapping his face, then ripping it off and tearing it to shreds before stomping on it a few times.

“A misunderstanding?” Qin Huamao uttered coldly as he felt the deathly aura of citizens’ corpses around them, his gaze frigid as he glowered at Quan Hongyu and He Qiwen. He reached out his hand, then an instant later, a massive phantom image of a hand formed out of the power of heaven and earth and grabbed the two of them, lifting them into the air.

“Martial Uncle, please spare us!” Quan Hongyu shouted, his expression changing dramatically. He started begging for forgiveness the moment he realized that the defenses of his few high-grade Spirit Tools were useless in the face of the suppression from the peak Dao Foundation stage power.

He Qiwen was unlike him, calm despite being lifted into the air. His expression was still unperturbed, and he secretly activated his Cloud Abyss Peak identity jade tablet.

Qin Huamao was a bit hesitant. Originally, he wanted to simply crush these two to death, but he couldn’t help but think twice after remembering that these two came here with Xu Disheng, an Affairs Envoy. If he were to kill them, he would really be overstepping his bounds.

Although Qin Huamao was absolutely indignant, he was still holding back somewhat. He looked down once more at the corpses littering the ground, heart torn with grief. He stepped on a flying sword Magic Treasure and flew off in the direction of Evening Valley Palace, his large hand-shaped phantom image still tightly holding onto Quan Hongyu and He Qiwen.

Ming Ruoyun, Chu Luo, Zhang Haobo, and the others all exchanged glances, then silently followed after him, a wide spectrum of expressions coloring their faces.

BANG!

Hong Quanyu and He Qiwen were thrown down to the ground hard in front of Evening Valley Palace. Under the suppression from the power of heaven and earth, they weren’t able to use their Spirit Tools to put up any defenses whatsoever. They collided with the ground hard and practically every one of the bones in their bodies shattered, leaving them on the brink of death.

… …

In a majestic, lofty palace room, Xu Disheng’s long eyelashes fluttered as he opened his eyes, revealing his resplendent eyes. From his interspatial ring, he withdrew the meteoric iron token representing his authority as Peak Master of Cloud Abyss Peak. He looked down at its scintillating black luster and said softly, “He Ziming, Yuan Qi.”

“Soul Suppressor Sacred Son,” He Ziming and Yuan Qi replied respectfully. They had been standing on attention outside the palace, and they came in hurriedly the moment they heard him call for them.

“Come with me to Evening Valley Palace,” he said.

“As you wish, Soul Suppressor Sacred Son,” the two of them said in unison.

… …

Gou Lezhan came out of Evening Valley Palace. His brows furrowed when he saw the miserable states of Quan Hongyu and He Qiwen. “Junior Martial Brother Qin, these two disciples were brought here by the Affairs Envoy. Even if they are guilty of some crime, was there any need to punish them in this way?”

Suppressing the urge to kill these two outright once more, Qin Huamao replied coldly, “It’s precisely because these disciples were brought here by the Affairs Envoy that I held back and didn’t kill them right away! They entered the bedchambers of girls and married women alike, defiled them and slaughtered their entire families, making rivers of blood flow throughout a smaller part of the Anxi provincial capital! They killed close to a hundred people!”

Gou Lezhan was already used to Qin Huamao’s unorthodox ideals and bearing, so he just shook his head and sighed. “And so what? They’re just mortals in the end.”

The moment he finished speaking, a suanni spiritual beast with an astonishingly powerful aura ripped through space as it streaked through the skies above the provincial capital, leaving behind a watery blue stream of profound light. It landed in front of Evening Valley Palace, wrapped in clouds and mist.

Xu Disheng was standing front and center between the suanni’s two majestic horns, looking down at the people below. His body was wrapped up in the intertwining white and gold splendor of the Golden Moon Garment, and his long black hair was tied up by a white jade band behind his head.

“Soul Su—Lord Affairs Envoy! You must help us!” He Qiwen wailed loudly. The moment he saw Xu Disheng arrive, he inwardly rejoiced and he finally let go of all reservations, letting the distress show on his face.

“Who activated their Cloud Abyss Peak jade identity tablet?” Xu Disheng asked, his voice echoing out hundreds of meters. “Didn’t I tell you all that you were not to seek me out in these 10 years unless something important happens?”

When he got to the latter half, his tone was imbued with a hint of iciness. Even the peak Dao Foundation stage Gou Lezhan and Qin Huamao couldn’t help but inadvertently shudder in response. They shared a momentary glance, each noticing the shock in the other’s eyes.

This ‘Affairs Envoy’ was only at the early Dao Foundation stage in terms of cultivation, but how was the power of his mind so strong? Just through the emotions contained within his tone, he somehow managed to impact the people around him!

Gou Lezhan and Qin Huamao were both at the peak Dao Foundation stage, but they were just ordinary disciples. They weren’t genius disciples or elite disciples in any way, so they couldn’t help but be terrified of the incredible strength of Xu Disheng’s mind.

He Qiwen’s expression filled with even greater agony. He took out a recording jade slip and said,

“Lord Affairs Envoy, disciple made sure to record everything that happened in this recording jade slip so no one could speak nonsense and make wrongful accusations! I beg you, Lord Affairs Envoy, please take a look and see for yourself!”

When Ming Ruoyun saw the recording jade slip, her expression shifted dramatically. She suddenly realized why He Qiwen had passively taken the attack when she and He Rourou attacked him earlier!

Zhang Haobo, Chu Luo, and the others also looked on with contrasting expressions, but they didn’t dare to stick their heads into a situation like this.

Yuan Qi’s expression was ashen as he watched his trusted assistant, who was prone on the ground, dying. Countless curses surfaced in his mind as he went forward and took the recording jade slip, then flew up to the head of the suanni spiritual beast and respectfully handed it to Xu Disheng.

After a while, Xu Disheng casually crushed the jade slip and turned his gaze to Qin Huamao. “Envoy Qin.”

Qin Huamao was convinced that Xu Disheng, this early Dao Foundation stage ‘Affairs Envoy’, wouldn’t do anything to him. He cupped his hands and replied, “What is it, Affairs Envoy?”

“As an Envoy of Anxi Province, you certainly have the right to investigate and punish disciples in the Province. But Quan Hongyu and He Qiwen are not disciples of this Province, but are disciples of my Cloud Abyss Peak. And yet, you did as you pleased, heavily injuring the two of them,” Xu Disheng said, flicking his sleeves. He turned and said, “He Ziming, according to the sect rules, what is the punishment for harming a fellow disciple more than one cultivation boundary below oneself?”

He Ziming stepped forward and declared clearly, “Lord Affairs Envoy, the sect rules state that in the Shangqing Sacred Sect, harming a fellow disciple who is not only more than one cultivation boundary below oneself, but is also not under one’s own arbitration, entails punishment marked by crippling their cultivation and severing their Spiritual Root.”

Qin Huamao scoffed angrily and said, “You wish to play the sect rules card with me over two trifling Sea of Qi stage disciples? Plus, with your early Dao Foundation stage cultivation…”

In his unbridled fit of rage, Qin Huamao ended up letting his inward contempt for Xu Disheng’s early Dao Foundation stage cultivation show.
