Chiling Highness

"The Undying Venerable!?"

A piercing laugh echoed in everyone's consciousness.

Although everyone knew it was just an illusion, not the real Undying Venerable, everyone still felt a chill run down their spines.

The Undying Venerable is renowned throughout the universe, his fame being no less than that of the Xuanshang Universe Lord. He is also the true backer that allows the King Juehun to act with impunity.

"Waaaaah~~" A strange voice rang out. "My disciple is ignorant and doesn't know what he did to offend your Virtual Universe Company? Tell me, if the crime is true, I will personally imprison this wicked disciple in the Star Domain Prison!"

First Army Lord King Guanglong respectfully said, "Great Undying Venerable! King Juehun has instructed the Black Moon God Lord, Sena, Deseniya, and other Immortal God to massively raise low-ranking human slaves and refine Blood Source Liquid, which is a serious violation of the laws of the Universe Country and the regulations of the Virtual Universe Company. They must be arrested and tried!"

"I wasn't asking you!" The Undying Venerable ignored King Guanglong and turned his gaze to Jiang Yao: "Heh heh, you're Jiang Yao? I'm asking you, King Juehun truly guilty?"

The Undying Venerable's eyes glowed with a ghostly green light. Jiang Yao only needed to exchange a single glance with him to be enveloped by countless illusions.

However, in terms of the strength of his will and consciousness, Jiang Yao surpasses many Immortal God. Not to mention that after he comprehended the Fifth Diagram of the Universe Chaos Stele, the Annihilation Intent was directly integrated into his will and consciousness. The illusion created by the Undying Venerable through the phantom formed by the token could not pose any threat to him at all.

"Oh? Not bad." The Undying Venerable looked at Jiang Yao with interest. "Tell me, is King Juehun guilty?"

Jiang Yao remained composed and calm, saying, "Trillions of humans were refined into Blood Source Liquid because of him, just to water the Jialong Tree and obtain its fruit. King Juehun."

"Hahaha!" The Undying Venerable laughed loudly, as if he had heard something ridiculous. "They are nothing but Planetary Level ants, and slaves at that, not even Universe Citizen. Is that such a heinous crime?"

"Do you know that I once hunted down a rare cosmic life form, the Green Thread Devourer, which was at the Venerable Level? Because it Myriad Clones and could control countless life puppets, it wiped out most of the humans in the star field."

But I was not punished in any way, only reprimanded by the Supreme Council!

This is my privilege as a powerful human being!

This is the real law, the real rule!

This is just me. If it were someone like your teacher, the Chaos City Lord, even if he destroyed most of the Universe Country, nothing would happen, and no one would hold him accountable for his so-called crimes!

So tell me, am I guilty?

King Guanglong, King Qianxie, King Yuhe, and other immortal, realm lord, and Domain Lord level Cosmic Army warriors all fell silent for a moment.

The Virtual Universe Company and the Giant Axe Coliseum set general limits for the strong within humanity, but these limits became blurred when it came to King-level Immortal, and even Universe Venerable. Universe Venerable could slaughter trillions without being punished, and even if they went too far, as long as they could continuously cultivate experts, such slaughter was understandable and no one would usually come to their defense.

Many powerful figures emerged under the command of the King Juehun, some of whom were even Realm Lords or ordinary Immortal God, eventually achieving the Marquis Immortal, like the Black Moon God Lord Huono. It can be said that the Blood Essence Fruit and the Blood Abyss Fruit made great contributions to this achievement.

The Undying Venerable's eerie green eyes flashed with a maniacal laugh, "If I were to say that I instructed King Juehun to keep a large number of low-ranking human slaves to refine Blood Source Liquid, that I ordered him to do so, tell me, am I guilty?"

Not only King Juehun smile, but King Fushan of the Talun Race, King Tianmu of the Vajra Race, and King Bizhong of the Bihe Race, who were watching the battle from the side, also showed their approval.

King Guanglong cast a worried glance at Jiang Yao. Even he felt a chill run down his spine in the face of the Undying Venerable's questioning.

Despite being the center of attention, Jiang Yao's expression remained unchanged. It was as if the Undying Venerable had only asked a simple legal question, and he calmly replied, "Guilty."

The entire starry sky fell silent.

Standing beneath the teacher's enormous phantom, the King Juehun suddenly widened his scarlet eyes, staring at Jiang Yao in disbelief. Had he heard correctly?

Even the illusory figure of the Undying Venerable, whose laughter was maniacal, paused, and the strange laughter suddenly stopped.

The others stared in astonishment at the tiny figure standing in the starry sky.

Some say the Undying Venerable is guilty?!

Jiang Yao's voice was calm, as if he was completely unaware of how shocking his words were.

"Whether in terms of physical strength or Gene Level, humans are among the lowest of the billions of races in the Primal Universe, yet they can stand among the top races and compete with life forms such as Zerg, Monster Race, Machine Race, and Starry Sky Behemoth. First, it is because of their large numbers, and second, it is because of the large number of geniuses accumulated from their large numbers. The talent and comprehension of human geniuses can make up for or even surpass their physical shortcomings, allowing them to rise from insignificant Apprentice Level to compete with those naturally powerful races without being at a disadvantage."

Those billions of humans slaughtered by you and your disciples, no matter how low their status, whether they were Universe Citizen or slaves, could have given rise to many potential geniuses and evolved countless possibilities. But all these possibilities were destroyed by your ridiculous bloodlust and your selfish and shallow indifference towards your own kind.

You have committed crimes that have weakened the future of the Human Race, stifled countless human geniuses, and diminished humanity's greatest advantage over other races. Your crimes are unforgivable!

"Haha, are you trying to use this reason to persuade me to punish my disciple?"

A piercing, eerie laugh, tinged with anger, emanated from the Undying Venerable's throat.

Jiang Yao calmly said, "I didn't intend to persuade anyone. I was just explaining my philosophy. Just like when you Undying Venerable, were chasing after that Green Thread Devourer Venerable, you didn't intend to convince all life in that star field of the necessity of killing them. When King Juehun was refining the Blood Source Liquid, he didn't convince the countless humans of the great significance of sacrificing themselves for the improvement of King Juehun's strength."

"No principle in the Primal Universe was spread through words."

"In my opinion, you are Undying Venerable, but I have no status, no title, and no right to arrest or even punish you. However, I am now the Inspector Envoy of the Xuanshang Universe Country. I have status, title, and right to arrest and punish Universe Citizen the Xuanshang Universe Country who violate the law and my principles, including Immortal God."

"This includes King Juehun; he is not only guilty, but his crimes are unforgivable!"

Silence!

"It's been a very long time since anyone dared to defy me like this." The Undying Venerable's voice grew increasingly harsh, his eyes like two cold, dark sword beams piercing straight into Jiang Yao's soul.

Jiang Yao remained unmoved. He was the personal disciple of the Chaos City Lord and Luo Feng's future senior brother. In terms of status, the Undying Venerable was not much higher than him. In the Primal Universe, it wasn't just about strength, but also about background and connections.

In fact, the fundamental basis for his ability to firmly articulate his sense of justice and ideals here is his status as a direct disciple of the Chaos City Lord and the halo of one of the most outstanding geniuses in human history.

"King Guanglong, King Qianxie, King Yuhe, continue the attack!"

Jiang Yao said coldly, "It's just a phantom. Even I can't deal with it, let alone interfere with the battle of King-level expert."

King Guanglong, "Your Prince Jiang Yao, I look forward to your justice being served soon! Not just in the Xuanshang Universe Country, but throughout the entire Human Territory!"

Having said that, he once again condensed the Aurora Ribbon and, under the watchful gaze of the Undying Venerable, swung it towards the horrified King Juehun.

"Teacher, help me!"

"Hahaha." Whether the Undying Venerable laughed out of extreme anger or due to his madness, he exclaimed, "Interesting, very interesting!"

The enormous phantom then vanished with a roar, and the dark green token emitted a blinding light, transforming into a vine that coiled around King Juehun and withstood King Guanglong's attack. The green branches were almost severed, and more than a dozen leaves were shaken off, but this allowed King Juehun to break free of the encirclement and escape.

This Green Token was also a rare treasure.

"Damn it!" King Guanglong looked at King Juehun, who was laughing strangely, with annoyance. Seeing Jiang Yao's seemingly unmoved expression, he sighed inwardly. King Juehun was the beloved disciple of the Undying Venerable, and he had guessed that Prince Jiang Yao had also anticipated this. However, this operation failed, and the attempt to establish authority was unsuccessful. It was feared that it would not be able to deter other Immortal Expert who were doing the same thing as expected.

Suddenly, seven Flowing Light shot out from the Dark Universe, seven attacks containing powerful laws woven into a net that surrounded the green vine. Then, the green vine seemed to have exhausted its power and transformed back into a token, revealing the astonished figure of the King Juehun.

A figure with two backward-curving ram horns on its head, nine dazzling Tail Feathers floating like ribbons under the starry sky, and dark gold eyes like a god appeared under the starry sky.

The figure's gaze fell upon Jiang Yao, and he nodded slightly. "Your Prince Jiang Yao."

Jiang Yao chuckled inwardly, but replied coldly, "Your Chiling Highness."

"Chiling?"

A single figure appeared in the minds of the three Army Lords and the other top-tier races, including the King-level Immortal of King Fushan, who were watching the spectacle.

A super genius in the Giant Axe Coliseum, on par with Jiang Yao.

"The newly appointed Inspector of the Giant Axe Coliseum Headquarters!"
