Cold Moon Star Domain Domain Master Mansion.
At this mont, the domain master remains the Immortal Golden Immortal Yu Hui.
Despite being caught in the incident where Gu Jinlai was besieged by Ming Zun, Su Liu, Gu Yin, and others hundreds of years ago, making his position unstable,
he, unlike Su Liu, Gu Yin, and others, has the backing of more than just ordinary Immortal Venerables.
His master, Immortal Venerable Tai Heng, is also a top figure in the Light Council,
second only to the Great Power level.
Comparable to the Five Emperors in the Fire Cloud Palace.
Under such circumstances, since Su Liu and Ming Zun voluntarily shouldered the bla, the Fire Cloud Palace did not hold him accountable, only replacing the Military Leader in the Cold Moon Star Domain.
Of course, the Fire Cloud Palace assigning a Military Leader did greatly affect Yu Hui’s perfect control over the Cold Moon Star Domain.
Especially at a critical ti when a major project in the Cold Moon Star Domain was about to launch, with the watchful eye of the Immortal Golden Immortal from the Fire Cloud Palace, he no longer dared to embezzle funds casually.
At this mont, the domain master is ticulously examining the material demand lists submitted by various defensive lines.
Behind him, Yu Wei, whose aura is becoming increasingly deep and is just half a step away from reaching the Golden Immortal Realm, is also diligently assisting him in handling trivial matters.
At that mont, Yu Hui seed to sense sothing and quickly took out a Communication Jade Token from his body.
Accompanied by a slight vibration, a figure condensed from Divine Thought projected from the jade token onto the hall.
Seeing this figure, Yu Hui respectfully greeted, "Master."
Yu Wei imdiately set aside everything in her hands and kneeled in greeting,
even though the eyes of the projected figure did not fall on her.
"Yu Hui."
As a Spirit Level Fifteenth Rank, with hope of advancing to Silent Annihilation and achieving Great Power, Immortal Venerable Tai Heng’s voice alone carried imnse prestige.
But the gravity in his voice made Yu Hui’s heart sink.
This tone...
Doesn’t seem like good news.
"I ask you, was the Divine Calamity Yuan Mou really killed by the combined effort of Ming Zun, along with Yu Wei, Chi Liuhuo, Chi Tianyuan, and others?"
Immortal Venerable Tai Heng inquired.
Yu Hui was slightly stunned, but still cautiously replied, "When I reported this matter to Master, it was indeed stated..."
Before Yu Hui could finish his sentence, Tai Heng cut him off rcilessly, with his powerful Divine Thought seemingly containing a hint of anger, "I want an accurate statent from you, don’t force to investigate personally!"
Suddenly, the domain master of the Cold Moon Star Domain was shocked and quickly asked, "Master, but... has sothing happened?"
"You need only tell , was that Divine Calamity Yuan Mou truly killed by you all, or... did you embezzle the Six-star rit belonging to Gu Jinlai at that ti? Just answer."
Immortal Venerable Tai Heng said.
"This..."
Yu Hui seed to have thought of sothing.
He had indeed received news of Gu Jinlai becoming an Immortal Golden Immortal a few hundred years ago.
That insignificant little Golden Immortal they once paid no attention to had really made it to prominence.
Becoming an Immortal Golden Immortal was one thing, but the key was, several influential figures of the Fire Cloud Palace seed to greatly appreciate his cultivation talent, even Emperor Yan, among the Three Emperors and Five Sovereigns, had once spread the news of wanting to take Gu Jinlai as a disciple...
Is it possible...
That Gu Jinlai has already gained Emperor Yan’s recognition and joined Emperor Yan’s sect?
Very likely!
After all, Ming Zun, Su Liu, and the Void Sword Sect’s Gu Yin were entangled because of Emperor Yan’s best disciple, Yan Xiang, and were all sent to the Heart of the Cosmic battlefield to redeem themselves through rits.
Thinking of this, he cursed Ming Zun, Su Liu, and Gu Yin for acting recklessly without proper investigation before targeting Gu Jinlai. Not only did they get themselves into trouble, but they also failed to kill Gu Jinlai, the scourge. On the other hand, he was explaining, "Indeed, Gu Jinlai killed Divine Calamity Yuan Mou, but as to claiming it as his Six-star rit, I do not agree. Without Chi Tianyuan and the Cold Moon Star Domain Golden Immortals fighting fervently at the ti, how could Gu Jinlai have the opportunity to kill Divine Calamity Yuan Mou? At best, it was just him delivering a fatal strike after Chi Tianyuan and others had fought it to a loss and injury..."
Immortal Venerable Tai Heng coldly stared at Yu Hui, not speaking for a long ti.
Seeing this, Yu Hui’s heart sank.
This reaction from Master...
Sothing’s not right!
It doesn’t seem like he’s going to let this slide easily.
But...
Even if Gu Jinlai was truly taken as Emperor Yan’s disciple, it shouldn’t make Master so apprehensive, right?
Emperor Yan has many disciples; he wouldn’t pressure Master just because of a disciple.
"Very well."
Immortal Venerable Tai Heng sneered, "You’ve learned to deceive and conceal; even at this mont, you refuse to tell the truth."
"Master... I speak the truth..."
Yu Hui said, hurriedly revising his statent with skill, "The information I received was indeed like this."
But Immortal Venerable Tai Heng was already tired of his excuses and directly waved his hand, "Since you don’t regard as your master, I won’t waste ti on you. Effective imdiately, you are no longer my disciple of Tai Heng; you have been expelled from the sect. Additionally, following the deliberation of the Light Council Immortal Venerables, you are dismissed from your position as domain master of Cold Moon Star Domain. The matter of you falsifying and concealing military accomplishnts will be specially investigated..."
Upon hearing these words, Yu Hui’s complexion changed drastically, "Master..."
"I cannot teach a disciple like you; let it end here."
Immortal Venerable Tai Heng abruptly ended the communication.
"Master! Master!"
Yu Hui couldn’t help but call out several tis.
But Immortal Venerable Tai Heng had already left, leaving no response.
For a mont, Yu Hui couldn’t help but panic.
His greatest reliance was the Domain Master of the Cold Moon Star Domain and Immortal Venerable Tai Heng. Now, not only was Tai Heng planning to expel him from the sect, but even his position as the Domain Master of the Cold Moon Star Domain was about to be revoked!
Putting that aside, he was just an ordinary thousand epochs Immortal Golden Immortal.
Not to ntion holding a domain like now, still being on the front line, wielding great power, but even the current assets of the Yu Family might not be protected.
What’s more, soone would co to specifically investigate his falsified and concealed military exploits.
If this matter was thoroughly investigated, his problems would be more than just a little.
If things go wrong...
He might not even have the opportunity to serve at the Heart of the Cosmic to redeem his faults and would be directly sentenced to the punishnt of annihilation of Dao.
For a mont, this Immortal Golden Immortal got anxious: "What’s going on, what’s going on? Gu Jinlai? Wasn’t his matter resolved hundreds of years ago? Why is it being brought back up again!?"
In panic, he quickly took out the Communication Jade Token, contacting his original fellow disciples and the Immortal Golden Immortals he was acquainted with.
But after Immortal Venerable Tai Heng cut off the communication and directly announced the expulsion of Yu Hui from the sect, none of those fellow disciples connected to his communication.
After much difficulty, he finally reached a Steward of the Light Council, which he was familiar with, who simply hurriedly said: "You should look into who the Ancient Immortal Venerable you offended really is."
Then hastily hung up the communication, as if afraid of getting too involved with him, thus bringing disaster upon themselves.
"Ancient Immortal Venerable!? Gu Jinlai!?"
Hearing what the Steward said, Yu Hui’s face was full of disbelief, and he couldn’t help but scream: "Immortal Venerable!? Gu Jinlai beca Immortal Venerable!? Wasn’t he just an Immortal? How did he leap to Immortal Venerable in just a few hundred years!? Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"
"Immortal Venerable!?"
Beside him, Yu Wei heard the Domain Master’s words and couldn’t help but show horror as well.
She had always been paying attention to Gu Jinlai.
After all, the benefits converted from Gu Jinlai’s rits eventually flowed to her, Chi Tianyuan, Ming Zun, and others. With a guilty conscience, she naturally couldn’t help but take note of Gu Jinlai’s every move.
When Gu Jinlai broke through to beco an Immortal Golden Immortal, she already felt uneasy, fearing he would retaliate later.
Now...
How long has it been, and he actually broke through to Immortal Venerable!?
She dared not claim she had absolute confidence to achieve immortality, even after swallowing Yuan Mou’s rit, receiving great rewards. Even if she could beco immortal, it would take at least tens of thousands of years. But how long has it been, not even a thousand years, and Gu Jinlai beca an Immortal Venerable?
Is it that easy to break through to Immortal Venerable?
"Immortal Venerable! I don’t believe it! I don’t believe he could break through from Immortal Golden Immortal to the realm of Immortal Venerable in just a few hundred years!"
At this ti, Yu Hui seed unwilling to accept reality, suddenly shouting, and then took out a Communication Jade Token, continuously giving orders: "Investigate! Investigate! Get to the bottom of this for !"
Any Immortal Golden Immortal usually represents a powerful force behind them.
Yu Hui was naturally no exception.
As he mobilized his forces, soon information about Gu Jinlai was gathered before him.
When he eagerly hoped that the Steward of the Light Council’s "Ancient Immortal Venerable" statent was just a slip of the tongue, the real news nearly made him black out and faint with despair.
After a while, he finally recovered from the dizziness.
Looking at the information gathered by his family, he muttered unconsciously: "Reincarnated Great Power... Gu Jinlai, actually a reincarnated Great Power!"
This was even worse than him simply being an Immortal Venerable.
Immortal Venerable...
He might still harbor so slight hope.
After all, he was a Honorable Daoist with a thousand epochs of cultivation, but a reincarnated Great Power...
At last, he finally understood why even his greatest supporter, his Master Tai Heng, upon noticing his lingering thoughts, unhesitatingly abandoned him, expelling him from the sect.
Reincarnated Great Power!
This was a being that even his Master could not afford to offend!
And for the sake of temporary greed back then, did he actually plot against this Great Power?
"Finished, finished, it’s all finished..."
Yu Hui’s whole body softened, as if drained of all his Essence Qi Spirit, and he collapsed to the ground.
...
A month later, Yu Hui, the Domain Master of the Cold Moon Star Domain, was investigated internally by the Light Council. It was discovered that during his tenure as the Domain Master, he had repeatedly falsified and misreported military achievents, abused his power for personal gain, and embezzled resources...
With a unanimous decision by the high levels of the Light Council, Yu Hui was relieved of his position as the Domain Master of the Cold Moon Star Domain and was sentenced to serve at the Heart of the Cosmic frontline, the duration of which was...
Unlimited.
...
Gu Jinlai was unaware of the events occurring in the Cold Moon Star Domain.
He only learned of it when Emperor Bai personally approached him and delivered the Six-star rit reward originally belonging to him.
...
"Since when could Six-star rit be exchanged for a Supre Immortal Artifact?"
Gu Jinlai inquired as he looked at the reward item brought by Emperor Bai.
"Haha, this is compensation from the Light Council,"
laughed Emperor Bai, "However, for nearly harming you in your reincarnated state, punishing an Immortal Golden Immortal and compensating with a Supre Immortal Artifact is insufficient. The Cold Moon Star Domain also made compromises, and now that the position of Domain Master of the Cold Moon Star Domain is vacant, does Ancient Immortal Venerable have any recomndations?"
