"That’s right. If we can execute this fiend, what’s a little lost dignity or reputation?"

"Exactly! To kill a fiend, we would even give our lives. So what is a small sacrifice like this?"

"Indeed!"

"Please, Palace Master, tell us your method!"

As the Great Elder of the East spoke, the others chimed in, their faces masks of righteous indignation. For the safety of the world and for the sake of the Righteous Path, sacrificing one’s personal reputation was nothing. Even using despicable means was permissible because they were doing it for the Righteous Path.

"Good!" At the head of the hall, a grim smile touched the corners of the Heavenly King’s mouth. Killing intent flashed in his eyes as he revealed his plan. "Wu Tian was discovered by us in Peach Blossom Spring. So as long as we control Peach Blossom Spring, there’s no way he won’t show himself!"

"If Wu Tian does not appear, we will kill one person from Peach Blossom Spring every day!"

"This method is cruel, but for the sake of the world, it must be done."

The Heavenly King’s words earned nods of approval from the disciples of the Eastern Taizhong Palace, killing intent swirling in their eyes. Only by killing Wu Tian and delivering his corpse to the Righteous Alliance would they be forgiven.

Only one person, Dong Bai, sighed, disagreeing with this approach.

"Dong Bai, do you have an issue with what I, your master, have just said?" the Heavenly King asked, noticing his expression.

Dong Bai took a sip of wine and said drunkenly, "We are people of the Righteous Path, righteous Immortal Seekers. How can we commit such a despicable act?"

The Heavenly King disregarded him, feeling that Dong Bai lacked a sense of the greater good.

Dong Bai, no longer interested in arguing, continued to drink as he strode out of the great hall, drunkenly chanting, "The whole world is sullied, I alone am pure; all men are drunk, I alone am sober!"

He must have been driven mad by the drink! That was what everyone in the great hall thought of Dong Bai at that moment.

The Heavenly King also felt deeply disappointed in his eldest disciple.

「At the same time, in the Heavenly Demon Palace」

The great hall, much like the one in the Eastern Taizhong Palace, was steeped in a solemn and oppressive atmosphere. Everyone, from the highest to the lowest rank, had already gathered. After sending Guli Weileng to the Surface World, Yin Fengxue had immediately returned and was now seated on the throne. Beside him, Beiming Fenghua sat upon the Queen’s throne.

The ancestors of Yin Fengxue and Beiming Fenghua had been entrusted by Wu Zetian to find the secret to eternal youth, which led them to the Underground World. Other factions in the Underground World had only one king, but the Heavenly Demon Palace was different. Back then, Li Zhi and Wu Zetian were known as the Dual Saints, and their era was said to be one where the sun and moon shone in the sky together. The Heavenly Demon Palace had carried on this custom, and so the Queen also held the authority to command a response from anyone within its walls.

"My brother was a kind-hearted man. He wouldn’t even dare to kill a chicken. But he... he’s dead."

Amidst the silence, Beiming Fenghua was the first to speak. She looked at Yin Fengxue and demanded forcefully, "I heard you forbade Left Elder from avenging my brother. Why?"

Beiming Fenghua possessed Wu Zetian’s looks and ambition. Her tone was accusatory, not at all how a wife should speak to her husband. Those in the Heavenly Demon Palace who had already been won over by her, such as Left Elder and his supporters, began to speak up one by one.

"Palace Master, we must avenge the Uncle Lord! By killing him, he has shown utter contempt for our Heavenly Demon Palace. How can we let such a person live?"

"Exactly! Wu Tian deserves to die! Not only did he kill the Uncle Lord, but I heard he also killed Lord Zhao Tianxia. Since he’s so reckless with his own life, how could we not grant him his death wish?"
