“Qiuhuang?” Wu Zuo glared at the person in front of him, angrily shouting, “Someone, take him and throw him into the prison!”
As this situation unfolded on his side, a group of enforcers also arrived.
Upon hearing Wu Zuo’s command, several Emperors immediately took action and directly suppressed Qiuhuang.
“My Lord, there’s a situation in the prison!” a law enforcement Emperor cautiously reported.
Wu Zuo turned his head to look, his gaze could almost kill.
“Law Enforcement Hall, listen up! Immediately contact all members of the Northern Territory’s Law Enforcement Halls. Make sure to capture Jian Wushuang. Whoever captures Jian Wushuang will be rewarded with 10,000 cubic universe crystals!”
With these words, everyone was moved.
10,000 cubic universe crystals!
In the Elder Palace, only three Palace Masters and Wu Zuo had such a generous offer.
Keep in mind that Tie San, who controlled Longevity Hall, had only accumulated 30,000 cubic universe crystals over the years.
For a tier 6 Emperor, 10,000 cubic universe crystals were a huge fortune.
The total value of a tier 6 Emperor didn’t even reach 10,000 cubic universe crystals.
Only a few special tier 6 peak Emperors had such substantial wealth.
Not everyone had the same luck as Tie San.
Having a powerful elder brother who was a supreme-peak expert and one of the three Palace Masters of the Elder Palace.
He himself had risen to the position of Hall Master of Longevity Hall.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have a net worth of 30,000 cubic universe crystals.
Although some Inheritors were tempted, Jian Wushuang’s strength was too formidable, and they had no confidence.
Most of the current Inheritors were at the level of tier 5 peak-level Emperors.
Powerful individuals who achieved tier 6 Emperor status in such a short time were mostly not in the Elder Palace.
The leading wave of Inheritors consisted of tier 6 Emperors, followed by the second wave of tier 5 Emperors, and the third wave comprised those who had just succeeded in becoming Emperors by merging with Dao.
On the Grave God Mountain, reaching the tier 4 Emperor after successfully the Dao Merge was quite common.
For those who had perfected the second-rank Origin Source Dao and achieved successful Dao Merge, directly advancing to tier 4 Emperor was nothing unusual.
The weakest among them were still Dao Lords.
In truth, these Dao Lords could quickly merge paths, and their success rates were quite high.
However, learning from past experiences, most Dao Lords preferred to reach the perfection of the Origin Source Dao before attempting Dao Merge.
By successfully integrating the Dao in this manner, they became tier 4 Emperors, swiftly progressing to tier 5 Emperors.
Seated at tier 5, they could even aspire to reach tier 6, or even pursue the supreme-peak.
With the support of the Qishen Temple, there was no reason for them not to strive for the utmost strength.
It’s worth noting that the Ultimate Dao Lords, upon witnessing Hu Qing’s attainment of Emperor status, directly reached the peak- level tier 5, and his combat power rivaled that of tier 6 peak-level Emperors.
Even Dao Lords practicing the Ultimate Dao had to reach perfection before attempting the Dao Merge.
However, as one progressed further along the Ultimate Dao, it became increasingly challenging.
On this matter, Jian Wushuang had a deep understanding. Although he had perfected the Extreme Dao, his Ultimate Sword Dao was only at the eighth level.
Part of the reason was that, since mastering the Extreme Dao, he had slackened in his focus on the Sword Dao.
However, after successfully integrating the Dao, all these issues would fade away into insignificance.
After Wu Zuo’s announcement, the crowd dispersed.
Many contemplated taking action, but only a few were qualified to challenge Jian Wushuang.
Among them were some powerful figures from the Elder Palace.
As for the tier 6 Emperors in the Four Great Secret Realms, most lacked the capability to confront him.
Currently, Jian Wushuang’s combat power was on par with the top-level tier 6 Emperors.
If pitted against those native Emperors, he could even contend with tier 6 peak-level opponents.
As for the supreme-peak experts, these individuals dared not move easily.
They couldn’t just take Wu Zuo’s words at face value; what if Lord Zhen Ling wanted to protect Jian Wushuang?
That was also a possibility.
Though it was said they were going to pursue and kill, no one had gone yet.
It was, however, the Enforcement Hall in the Northern Territory that had already taken action.
Upon returning to the Enforcement Hall, Wu Zuo immediately issued orders to the powerful figures of various Enforcement Halls to intercept Jian Wushuang.
Among the enforcers mobilized, the weakest had to be at the peak-level tier 6.
While there were many enforcers in the Enforcement Hall, those who reached the peak-level of tier 6 were no more than ten.
Only two Vice Hall Masters could rival the supreme-peak.
Vice Hall Master Zhong was at Yuanyang Lake, and another Vice Hall Master was in the Northern Territory.
The strength of that Vice Hall Master was not weaker than Vice Hall Master Zhong.
Wu Zuo directly contacted the latter, fully responsible for capturing Jian Wushuang.
Meanwhile, Vice Hall Master Zhong had already captured Li Mizhou and others.
Inside the great hall.
Li Muzhou’s Origin Source had been bound, and now he was no different from a disabled person.
“Identity, mastermind, motive!” Wu Zuo’s voice was icy.
Yet, deep down, he was puzzled. He knew Lu Hua’s capabilities well, and Wang Han and others were also Lu Hua’s confidants. This much was clear to him.
It was Li Muzhou who could conceal his strength and dare to raid the prison.
Who gave him such audacity?
Li Muzhou felt as if his heart had turned to ashes. In Wu Zuo’s hands, he was finished. Fortunately, he had transmitted the information about Jian Wushuang being judged in the Elder Palace to Shen Ling, which could be considered a great accomplishment. As long as he did not perish, Shen Ling would rescue him in the future.
Of course, all of this was his wishful thinking.
At this moment, Shen Ling was mobilizing the powerful members of the Shadow Sect from the entire Heavenly Realm, heading to the Northern Territory to find Jian Wushuang.
Who had the time to bother with a discarded pawn?
“Hmph, killing me won’t help!” Li Mizhou’s mouth remained resolute. Uttering his impending death seemed futile; better to stay silent and preserve a glimmer of hope.
Wu Zuo stood up directly, his expression darkening. “Do you think that by not speaking, I’ll be helpless?”
If that was the case, they were seriously underestimating the Elders Palace.
Without some means, how could he cleanly remove the Northern Territory’s Shadow Sect?
“Take him away, send him to the Ministry of Punishments for interrogation. If he doesn’t confess, make sure he doesn’t enjoy the process. Otherwise, I’ll make sure none of you enjoy it either!” Wu Zuo thundered, startling everyone present.
Even Vice Hall Master Zhong couldn’t help but tremble slightly.
“Wu Zuo, what happened to make you so furious?” A voice came from outside the hall, and then a dignified man walked in—it was none other than Emperor Lu Hua, here to witness the spectacle.
Wang Han and the others had already been sent away by him; they were probably in the mortal realm by now. The Elders Palace didn’t have the authority to intervene in mortal affairs, let alone the Law Enforcement Hall.
Even the White Tiger Temple in the Heavenly Realm had suppressed the Law Enforcement Hall, denying them any chance to cross into other territories.
Unless Wu Zuo personally went to apprehend someone, it was impossible to capture them.
Without any evidence, he wasn’t afraid.
Because of this trivial matter, Zhen Ling would certainly not blame him.
Not to mention the fall of a Hall Master, even if the Palace Master fell, Zhen Ling would not frown.
This was about perspective; different perspectives dictated different horizons.
Zhen Ling cared more about the Inheritors than these struggling old men on their last legs.
In Lu Hua’s eyes, reaching this point in the matter was not a problem. After all, it was just the demise of a tier 6 Emperor.
Was it really worth making such a fuss?
After Jian Wushuang escaped the Northern Territory, what more could Wu Zuo do?
The White Tiger Temple found joy in the spectacle and wouldn’t bother with such matters. Perhaps they would even turn around and seek Jian Wushuang, trying to recruit him into the White Tiger Temple.
