To put it simply, under the law, although Everett and the Lord of Wind are detestable, their actions don’t warrant death.
However, one must view this matter from another angle. Lord Sun, in his previous life, was widely known for the famous anecdote of "Two Peaches Kill Three Warriors", well-known to all, even to won and children. Simmons greatly admires this strategy. Still, what he extolled was not the fact that two peaches caused the death of three brave warriors, but instead, he strongly agreed that the interests of certain individuals could be sacrificed in tis of national peril. Although the charges against the three warriors were perhaps trumped up or nonexistent, their influence had already affected the stability and unity of the nation, making their execution justifiable.
When facing strong enemies in the Heavenly Palace, the Lord of Wind didn’t think about unity. Instead, he secretly planned to use this opportunity to secure personal interests. If he was not severely punished, others would certainly follow suit. How could the Heavenly Palace deal with the Immortal World if it was first thrown into internal chaos?
The cri of the Lord of Wind does not warrant death, but at this point in ti, he must die!
Lord Sun’s decisive action presented a thorny problem for the Emperor Venerables, making him a formidable adversary.
After the Lord of Wind’s death, the deities in the Heavenly Palace were silenced, their dread far outweighing their resentnt. They all passed down divine decrees, and Clayton Bertram’s Enforcer of the Path Division quickly amassed twenty-four powerful Divine Followers.
These special Divine Followers, having a dual faith, prayed to the Lord of Divine Water in addition to their own deities, thereby receiving an extra blessed power, making them even stronger than ordinary Divine Followers!
With the backing of the Enforcer of the Path Division, Clayton Bertram was able to progress smoothly with all his work within the Divine Path Alliance.
...
Only a few people knew about the events in the Heavenly Palace — after Everett’s death, the fallen clergy of the Heroic Sect, who had similarly witnessed everything, were now re mortals. Their words were treated as "mad ravings," and no one believed them.
The Great Sect Leader and King Monroe, upon learning, nodded in approval, feeling that Lord Sun handled it appropriately. Given King Monroe’s character, he felt that Lord Sun’s asures were not thorough enough: "Every deity should be subjected to fetters and tightly controlled! The Heavenly Palace has always been of weaker strength. All forces must be concentrated to form a massive war machine. Only by going all out can there be a chance to completely defeat the Immortal World!"
Lord Sun shook his head with a bitter smile, characteristic of King Monroe. He quickly unified the Poter Kingdom by implenting various stringent laws in the early stages of West Ridge, thereby mobilizing all the war potential of the kingdom.
The Great Sect Leader communicated secretly with Lord Sun: "In a little while, I shall need to invite you over to protect our doctrine."
"Protect our doctrine?" Lord Sun was confused. The Great Sect Leader explained, "I have sensed that The Sixth Calamity is coming! The Heavenly Track will soon be fully restored, and the impending catastrophe sohow gives an uneasy feeling of uncertainty...."
The Great Sect Leader had not felt this way before during his tribulations. At that ti, many parts of the Heavenly Track were missing. Even with the falling Heavenly Tribulation, the Great Sect Leader was full of confidence. For the previous five tribulations, he navigated successfully without the outside world knowing.
Lord Sun casually asked, "Should we inform King Monroe as well, so the two of us could..." The Great Sect Leader interrupted him without hesitation, "No need!" Irritated, he further explained, "That fellow King Monroe keeps opening the Communication Talisman for no reason, leaving , the busy Great Sect Leader, with no idle ti for chats."
Lord Sun was speechless. His Majesty’s flirting skills were not up to par. The ambitious Great Sect Leader could not be treated like an ordinary woman, wandering aimlessly with trivial matters. Such behavior would only make the Great Sect Leader look down on you and irk him.
"Alright," Lord Sun agreed: "Just let know when, and I will co imdiately." The Great Sect Leader also responded, "When it’s your turn for tribulations, I’ll be there to protect your doctrine."
After settling this matter with the Great Sect Leader, Lord Sun devoted a few days to cultivation before running into a "problem".
Lord and Sophia.
Lord spent most of his ti handling various affairs within the forr territory of the Nanni Nation with this incarnation. Still, Sophia had never been given a title. The main issue was that the situation was very awkward for Lord Sun when he subdivided this incarnation; he never expected it would turn out this way....
The realm-level of both Lord and Sophia kept rising, especially after Lord Sun acquired the power of "nurture". Both of them had advanced to the Eighth Major Realm.Lord Bertram has already arranged for Lord: the Lord of Divine Water!
The current Lord of Divine Water in the Heavenly Palace is just an empty shell, which my brother and I can use at any ti. However, if the Immortal World suddenly launches an attack, there will be catastrophic consequences if no real consciousness is constantly present in the Heavenly Palace and the reaction is but a mont slower.
But what about Sophia if Lord leaves?
Although Sophia curses Lord as "heartless" all day long, she can’t really be heartless. After contemplating for a while, Bertram spent a day putting his consciousness on Lord, and explained to Sophia, "There is a big matter that I can’t decide for you. I need to hear your thoughts."
Sophia lazily asked, "Spit it out if you have sothing to say, or just let it out if you have gas." That’s how casual the two of them were with each other now.
Lord then said, "You have to promise first, you won’t get physical, cry or leave forever after I say it..." Sophia sat up in bed, staring at him intently. "You have another woman?" She started to scratch him, "You heartless bastard, what did I see in you? You dare..."
Lord defended himself: "Absolutely not, trust ! You practically keep on a leash all day, when would I have the chance to hang out with other won?"
Sophia was still annoyed, "n need to be kept on a tight leash, especially the old tirs like you!"
Lord wanted to say that he was actually still under thirty by real age, but now wasn’t the ti to quibble about such details. He braced himself and divulged his "real identity". Sophia’s eyes grew wider and wider. Then she got up and started pacing around the room at rapid speed, circling for seventeen or eighteen tis. Suddenly a hint of delight appeared on her face, "Are you saying that... the most desirable bachelor in the entire Eastern Land, the object of countless female cultivators’ desires, Lord Bertram, slept with ?"
Lord: "..."
Your happiness, as if you have just stumbled upon a great bargain, makes feel rather upset, you know?
Lord waved his hand, "Forget it, think whatever you want. The current situation is like this..." Lord announced his plan to integrate himself to beco the Lord of Divine Water. "I have thought of a solution for you. There’s still a God’s position of Storm Heavenly Consort in the Heavenly Palace. However, this deity has lost its belief in the Lower Realm, so it didn’t have the chance to reshape its Divine Soul when the Heavenly Palace returned. You can accept the role of Storm Heavenly Consort. From then on, we can truly be together in the Heavenly Palace."
"But this would require you to practice the Divine Path, which ans you won’t be able to ascend. And going to the Heavenly Palace at this point ans facing the attacks from the Immortal World directly, the outco of which is uncertain."
"You also lack rit, so it won’t be easy for you to beco the Storm Heavenly Consort position. I’ll be going up first, and you may need to accumulate rit in the Lower Realm. We might need to be apart for a while..."
Sophia imdiately grabbed his beard and questioned, "How many goddesses are there in the Heavenly Palace now? How many among them are beautiful and sexy?"
"Ouch, ouch..." Lord released her hand, saving his beautiful beard, "Can’t you focus on the main point? It’s a big deal for you if you choose this path."
Sophia didn’t care and just kept interrogating him, "Be honest, no trying to be vague!"
Lord finally gave in, "There are six in total, none of them are as attractive as you, okay?"
"Really?"
"Really, other won and goddesses don’t appeal to at all, except for you."
"Hmph, you’re just good at sweet-talking." Sophia appeared skeptical but was secretly delighted. Only then did she seriously consider Lord’s suggestion.
