Chapter 1130 - 938: Whirlpool

Sure enough, as soon as the Holy King Order, representing the supreme authority of the Demon Realm, was issued, it indeed calmed the scene, and the place fell into silence.

Mulan Jin's voice broke the silence again, "Take them away separately under guard, and set up an array to cut off their internal and external communications."

Upon hearing they were going to be detained, Bi Dao was infuriated again, "Mulan Jin, don't go too far!"

Mulan Jin fixed his gaze on the Demon Path member gasping for breath on the ground, "I'm helping prove your innocence from any connection with him, are you afraid of being investigated?"

With a single sentence, Bi Dao was speechless.

Even the notoriously arrogant Wanfu Demon King fell silent; what more could the other two say? The personnel from the Stargazing Pavilion stepped forward and gestured 'please' to them.

Although the three leaders were dissatisfied, they either grunted coldly or flicked their sleeves and left.

Though they were being escorted away under detention, Mulan Jin did not order any restrictions on the three individuals.

Normally, involvement with the Demon Path would mean suppressing their ability to resist, to prevent unforeseen circumstances; however, this time, Mulan Jin did not take things that far, which was a step back for both sides with the three demon realm leaders.

It wasn't that Mulan Jin was afraid, but rather everyone knew in their hearts that this was mostly a deliberate act against the three demon realm leaders.

The reason Mulan Jin contacted Shi Chun earlier was because he suspected Shi Chun might be up to something, but the Heavenly Domain Dingnan Prefecture commander was nowhere to be found.

Of course, if he needed to find Shi Chun, he might still be able to; however, before the situation became clear, he didn't want to be used as a pawn.

Seeing the Xuanji Token Master suppress the Phoenix Clan chief, Mad Demon Bi Dao, and Bone Demon King until they submitted, the onlooking Feng Chi was so terrified he dared not breathe loudly.

Fortunately, Mulan Jin had no interest in her and turned back to attend to urgent matters.

Soon, Shi Chun received Feng Chi's message, and learning about the incident, Shi Chun was also quite surprised; he never thought even the three demon realm leaders would submit in front of Mulan Jin, giving him a new understanding of Mulan Jin's intimidating power.

Perhaps because he had been close to Mulan Jin for some time, he previously saw Mulan Jin unable to exclude even his own daughter from the Battle of Great Pardon list, which somewhat lowered his impression.

Now, he couldn't help but recall a past event. During the Sky Rain Meteor Conference, he and Mulan Qingqing were in a life-and-death duel; just as he was about to cut down Mulan Qingqing, someone intervened unbeknownst to him, and he clearly remembered the transmitted warning, saying he could not afford to provoke Mulan Qingqing's background.

At that time, there seemed to be a bit of goodwill in the message, but he was a hundred percent sure he had no such connections, so obviously, the person was saving Mulan Qingqing.

Lying on a lounger inside the room, the red-clothed woman cradling a book suddenly had a slight movement in her brow, briefly closed her eyes, and reopened them to look outside the door. Her expanded domain intuition detected a familiar aura; the Illusion Demon King Bai Sheng had returned again!

She was unsure what Bai Sheng was up to.

At the same time, she noticed the dazed figure under the eaves at the door and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Shi Chun turned back into the room, bent over with a smile in front of her, and said, "Thinking about you."

The red-clothed woman couldn't help but roll her eyes again; she seemed to have grown accustomed to rolling her eyes lately. In fact, she also knew Mulan Jin had arrived…

Bai Sheng indeed returned and awaited again at the foot of Yuling Mountain.

He didn't want to run back and forth, but this trouble was self-inflicted; he suddenly received a communication saying that Chai Wenwu was introducing industries in the West Niu very quickly, successfully piquing the interest of the Sansheng Valley Soul-devouring Demon King Lü Mi, who was already leading Lü Mi over.

As a result, he urgently rushed back from Yan State at high speed.

Bai Sheng knew very well that Lü Mi's easy persuasion had nothing to do with Chai Wenwu's abilities and was no different from the reason he first came.

Also, the speed on Chai Wenwu's end was not slow; he had already led Lü Mi via Xun Gate to the Heavenly Capital.

There were many people traveling from the Heavenly Capital to the Heavenly Domain, making the Xun Gate quite congested, but Chai Wenwu was accustomed to the low profile of these big figures.

While in line, Lü Mi's subordinate suddenly approached him and whispered some alarming news from the Heavenly Domain Dingnan Prefecture.

Shrouded under the cloak, Lü Mi remained silent for quite a while, whispered with his subordinates via transmission, then did not queue anymore, and left directly.

The surprised Chai Wenwu asked, "Mr. Lv, where are you going?"

For him, having finally reached the gate, running away now meant rearranging everything, which was quite troublesome and a waste of time.

He wanted to follow, but Lü Mi's subordinate stopped him and transmitted, "City Lord Chai, the king has urgent matters to attend to, so the trip to your Heavenly Domain Dingnan Prefecture will be postponed, and we will speak again later when there is time."

Without caring about Chai Wenwu's thoughts, they provided a brief explanation and left immediately, leaving Chai Wenwu stunned on the side.

Beside him, Xu You asked softly, "Why did they leave?"

Inexplicably, Chai Wenwu frowned and muttered, "They said there's an urgent matter to handle, so not going for now and will speak later when there's time."

Xu You was also baffled, as some events were beyond the reach of their information channels.

"Hey, are you guys moving or not? If not, don't block the way in the front." Behind them, someone expressed their dissatisfaction; they were all heading to the Heavenly Domain to strive for survival and initially didn't want to cause trouble, but after a long wait in line, tempers flared easily when encountering obstruction.

Chai Wenwu immediately cast a cold glance, and the aura of the City Lord suddenly emerged, quite oppressive to ordinary people.

He could not afford to provoke those demon kings, but could he not handle these people? If he took it seriously, he could make life unpleasant for the other party in the Dingnan Prefecture since he was now the confidant of the Dingnan Prefecture commander.
