Whoosh!
A special flying shuttle belonging to the Western Continent Heavenly Supervision Department pierced the sky, rapidly approaching the territory where the Blazing Heaven Flame Palace was located.
Zhong Yu, the Director of the Celestial Observatory of the Western Continent, was a stern-faced Old Man in Hemp Clothes. He stood on the deck of the flying shuttle, gazing solemnly ahead. "..."
Only the trembling hands hidden in his sleeves could reflect the turbulent emotions within him.
This is ridiculous! Absolutely ridiculous!
Hearing that the Supreme Elder of the Eastern Continent had important matters to discuss with the Divine Phoenix True Monarch in the Western Continent, the Seventh Star Lord of the Ziwei Hall even came to pave the way for him.
So Zhong Yu agreed to the matter without much hesitation.
Considering Jiang Minghuang's aversion to the Western Continent Heavenly Supervision Department, he naturally treated this incident as a protracted battle.
Unexpectedly, after just finishing dealing with the trivial matters of a large county, he received Communication Transmission from Ying Xuanji upon his return:
"Elder Ye is very dissatisfied with the Yan Palace's rude attitude and plans to take me directly to fight them. You can cooperate with us depending on the situation."
What kind of cooperation is this?!
What is Jiang Minghuang's combat strength? I, Zhong Yu, a Martial Dao True Lord at the fourth level of the Creation Realm, can I stop her without activating [Empowered by Wishes]?
The answer is quite obvious.
Despite his frustration, Zhong Yu couldn't just stand by and watch his colleague suffer, so he immediately set off for the scene.
"We absolutely must make it in time, otherwise if that madwoman Jiang Minghuang really does something, I'll be held responsible, which is a minor matter. If something happens to this Supreme Elder of the Eastern Continent who has just entered the Creation Realm, I'm afraid the situation there will completely spiral out of control..."
Zhong Yu kept a straight face, but couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
I've heard that four foreign tribes are entrenched in the wilderness outside the Eastern Continent, and they've been causing trouble lately. The Eastern Continent is probably waiting for this Supreme Elder to return and stabilize the situation. I hope he doesn't fall in the Western Continent.
Speaking of which, the old man had indeed heard quite a bit about this Supreme Elder of the Eastern Continent.
It's even hard not to have heard of it.
Several days ago, all the top talents of the Divine Continent whose crimes were listed in the archives were swiftly and decisively killed by Elder Ye within the territory of the royal city.
In addition, rumors suggest that he also intends to purge the corrupt Mountain Gate within the Divine Continent, leading to widespread unrest throughout the continent.
Given his combat strength at the initial stage of the Creation Realm, saying this wasn't too arrogant.
It's just that it's very difficult to implement.
It should be understood that under the same high pressure, it is easy for former rival Mountain Gate to unite and jointly resist the purge by the Divine Continent Heavenly Supervision Department.
Under such circumstances, even True Monarch of Creation Realm would find it difficult to continue their work.
To Zhong Yu's utter surprise, the opponent immediately chose a high-difficulty dungeon like [Blazing Heaven Flame Palace].
Isn't this just Trouble...? Zhong Yu sighed inwardly.
In his youth, he too longed to cleanse the land and reform the court, but everything must be done within one's capabilities. While it is admirable to do what one knows to be impossible, it also seems somewhat pale and powerless.
Just then, his attendant hurried over. "Lord Zhong, there's news from the Blazing Heaven Flame Palace."
His expression was quite strange as he spoke.
Zhong Yu immediately perked up. "What news? Tell me quickly."
The attendant reported, "The Star Lord of the Ziwei Hall reprimanded you for arriving too late. The Supreme Elder of the Eastern Continent has already defeated Jiang Minghuang and taken control of the situation in the Yan Palace. He is currently discussing important matters with the defeated Divine Phoenix True Monarch."
"Once the discussions are over, they might need to question you, so..."
Before he could finish speaking, he saw Zhong Yu flash to the front, take the helm, and then raise her hand, unleashing a torrent of magical Magic Power into the power array as if it were free.
The Western Continent law enforcement officer at the helm was quite taken aback. "Lord Zhong, what are you doing...?"
"Never mind that, just set sail!"
After saying that, Zhong Yu turned to look at his equally astonished attendant and couldn't help but ask, "You didn't lie about the military situation, did you?"
"How dare I? That's exactly what Star Lord said." The attendant quickly bowed.
"Okay, I understand..."
Zhong Yu took a deep breath, and suddenly gained a completely new understanding of this Eastern Continent Elder named Ye Li, and sincerely regretted why she hadn't set off sooner.
Buzz--
At this moment, the communication Talisman at the attendant's waist reignited, Ying Xuanji's cold and ruthless voice emanated from it:
"Has Lord Zhong not arrived yet?"
The attendant immediately looked towards Zhong Yu ahead. The Old Man in Hemp Clothes twitched his lips slightly and immediately said in a deep voice to the Western Continent law enforcement officer at the helm, "Drive faster!"
"If you haven't arrived yet, there's no need to come."
Ying Xuanji's voice betrayed no anger. "Elder Ye is setting off for the [Abyss of Gods and Demons] to slay demons tomorrow. Let's go directly to the Western Continent border and wait for him."
To slay demons in the Abyss of Gods and Demons?!
Upon hearing this, Zhong Yu's eyes widened, and for a moment she even doubted her own ears.
Defeating Jiang Minghuang is one thing, but the Abyss of Gods and Demons is a forbidden place suspected of harboring five Great Demons!
The Western Continent has been locked in a long-standing standoff with it for countless years, and now this Elder Ye is about to launch such a drastic move?!
When did such a powerful Supreme Elder emerge in the Eastern Continent...? Didn't Palace Master Ying say he had just advanced to the Creation Realm?
The intelligence was false?!
With immense shock in his heart, Zhong Yu spoke with a hoarse voice, "I understand. Elder Ye, what do you plan to do with the Blazing Heaven Flame Palace?"
"Given that Enmiya's records do not contain any particularly egregious crimes."
Ying Xuanji said, "He said to hold off for now, and discuss other matters later."
"I see."
Zhong Yu nodded emphatically. Things had come to this point, and Ye Li's combat strength had completely exceeded his expectations.
He had to rethink how to cooperate with the other side's subsequent cleansing operations.
Not just because it's actually possible to make it happen.
Furthermore, after news of Ye Li's defeat of Jiang Minghuang spread, the various transcendent forces within the Divine Continent, feeling this unprecedented pressure, might actually take some outrageous actions.
