Shi Yeyan and his teacher quickly arrived at the World of Gods.
Their arrival wasn’t hidden from anyone; everything was under the watchful eye of gods from the World of Gods. There was also no need to hide it, as they had co to seek justice for Lu Yang.
The only Unified Dao cultivator who ended up accompanying them was Zou Jiming. The others didn't actually co along.
It was enough to force Song Fei to carry the mantle of pro-war leader. It wasn't like they truly wanted to start a war between the two sides.
"Teacher, I'll go retrieve Youngest Martial Brother’s family first," Shi Yeyan said as soon as they reached this side.
"Okay." Song Fei nodded. "I'll et with Kenneth. Make sure to ensure the safety of your Youngest Martial Brother's wife and son."
Kenneth was precisely the real na of the Ruler of Nightmares. Lu Yang usually resided in Nightmare Continent, and it was also here that he was falsely accused of murder, so of course this bla should be shouldered by Kenneth.
"Yes," Shi Yeyan agreed, then gave a respectful bow to the Zou Jiming beside them before he quickly left.
"What a good upbringing!" Zou Jiming remarked with emotion. Even under such circumstances, Shi Yeyan still rembered to pay him respect. If it was his subordinates instead, they would’ve disappeared without a trace already.
Song Fei replied with a smile, "If you're willing to send a few people to Academic Heaven, I promise to help you discipline them well."
"Forget it." Zou Jiming waved his hand. If he really sent people to Academic Heaven, they might not even be his people anymore after all the brainwashing was done.
……
Shi Yeyan quickly found Lu Yang's wife in the World of Gods. In fact, all this information was semi-public and wasn’t hard to find.
Lu Yang's wife was called Sophia. She wasn’t so amazing bigshot, just a woman native to Nightmare Continent.
Decades ago, Lu Yang's soul was damaged due to an accident during his experints and even his residence was blown to smithereens, but he also befriended Sophia as a result.
Lu Yang, who was depressed at the ti, was only able to overco his depression with Sophia's advice and encouragent, and at the sa ti, he also fell in love with this mortal woman, ultimately taking her as his wife.
Later on, he found a way to prolong Sophia's life and also had a son with her, which brought them to the present situation.
"I am Lu Yang's Senior Martial Brother," Shi Yeyan calmly looked at the woman before him and spoke.
The woman standing in front of him looked to only be in her twenties, with an indescribable charm to her features, but her expression was sowhat haggard.
"G-Greetings," Sophia said cautiously, "My Lord, is Lu Yang… really not coming back? "
Sophia, a mortal who wasn’t even Legend Rank, only saw Lu Yang being taken away by those high and mighty gods and still hoped there was a chance her husband could return.
Shi Yeyan couldn’t help falling silent for a long ti before he answered, "Youngest Martial Brother has already been murdered. Master and I ca here precisely to seek justice for him."
Sophia's face paled further, as if a condemned prisoner had finally been notified that she was going to the execution ground.
Seeing this, Shi Yeyan could only let out a secret sigh, then asked, "I heard Youngest Martial Brother still has a child here. Where is he?"
"Little Jialiang is in the 391st Nightmare Land. I was afraid that soone would harm him, so I didn’t dare take him with …" Sophia responded.
With her experience and ability, this wasn’t a wrong decision. Nightmare Land was at least an official organization with a certain level of protection afforded to its students.
However, Shi Yeyan knew better. This was no small matter. An insignificant mortal organization on Nightmare Continent wouldn’t be taken seriously by the culprits at all.
"Please take there imdiately."
Sophia looked more and more alard. "Could it be… that soone might harm Jialiang?"
"We can’t rule out such a possibility," Shi Yeyan was as blunt as ever.
……
"What? You're saying Jialiang was taken away?" Sophia stood in the Nightmare Land’s hall, feeling a wave of dizziness as grief and indignation washed over her. "How could you guys do this?!"
The only reason she left her son here was because she believed in Nightmare Land, thinking that since they were subordinates of the great Ruler of Nightmares, they certainly wouldn't be swayed by the powerful, but who knew…
How could she have known that the relationship between Nightmare Land and its greater god nasake was so far removed that they were nothing more than subordinates in na only?
The person in charge of Nightmare Land had long since lost interest in humoring her. Instead, he secretly sized up Shi Yeyan several tis, considering whether or not this person was so kind of bigshot.
However, he answered quite fast as he assud an innocent expression. "Lu Jialiang killed Brook, and we couldn't stop Lord Andy from taking him away as a murder suspect!"
The two understood what happened after the head of Nightmare Land finished speaking. Sophia beca even more anxious and hurriedly asked Shi Yeyan for help.
From what she knew about her son, killing Brook in a fit of rage really was possible!
"Where was he taken?" Shi Yeyan asked coldly.
"Lord Andy is His Majesty Freidman's attendant…" The head of Nightmare Land didn't dare hide it and imdiately revealed Andy's background, which wasn't much of a secret in the first place.
God of Gluttony Freidman, a Tier 9 god of the Dark Faction and one of the gods who existed since ancient tis.
Shi Yeyan nodded and calmly thanked him, then left with Sophia.
"Where are we going?" Sophia was uncertain.
"To find Freid—"
Shi Yeyan was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly stopped, staring at the silver light illuminating the sky.
The terrifying sword energy that descended from the sky caused Shi Yeyan to react instantly and launch a palm strike at the sky.
Next to him, Sophia and the head of Nightmare Land—who weren’t able to react at all—only felt a strong gale sweep past their faces, and then nothing happened.
Shi Yeyan withdrew his palm and looked at the sky consideringly. “It doesn’t contain any sword intent and is driven by pure strength… It should be a native powerhouse. Definitely a god. Who could it be?"
Many gods in the World of Gods used swords, and since the other party only made a cursory strike and retreated after a single blow, Shi Yeyan couldn’t guess the attacker’s identity for the mont.
"S-Senior Martial Brother Shi, what's wrong?" Sophia had a hard ti pronouncing the tongue-twisting title.
"Nothing." Shi Yeyan shook his head. "It's probably soone who noticed and launched an attack to test ."
Sophia nodded blankly, but the head of Nightmare Land beside them secretly sighed in relief. Since the fellow who ca out to test him seed very weak, the person standing in front of him probably shouldn’t be too strong either, right?
Shi Yeyan quickly left with Sophia, and as the head of Nightmare Land ordered his subordinates to return, he turned around to see a scene that stunned him.
Behind him, the 391st Nightmare Land had been cut in half, and what split them up was a sword gash several ters deep.
……
Above the distant horizon, Gu Nan's figure slowly erged while muttering under his breath, "A giant palm driven by laws? I’ll na it Vigorous Vajra Palm for now."
He glanced at the direction the two disappeared in again. "Quite fast, but… to find Freidman, you guys first have to know the way!"
