The path to immortality through martial arts begins with being forced into marriage!

"My Blood-Clad Sect offers you the true path to the pinnacle of power, a path of unbridled joy and vengeance!"

Why waste time engaging in empty pleasantries with these corrupt individuals?

"Red Demon, how dare you!"

A purple figure streaked across the sky like a shooting star, attracting everyone's attention!

That immense pressure, merging with the heavens and earth, was none other than that of a Golden Core cultivator!

The onlookers below were stunned!

What auspicious day is today?

Why are all these important figures, whom we rarely see on ordinary days, suddenly appearing all at once?

First, a powerful member of the royal family appeared, then a powerful member of the Blood Robe Sect descended, and now another pillar of the Demon Suppression Division has emerged!

The most common people I've seen in the past are the bronze-badged deacons of the Demon Suppression Division!

Even if ordinary people have no understanding of the world of cultivators, they can still recognize the purple-gold cloud pattern official robe on Song Ziwei's body, which symbolizes his high-ranking position in the Demon Suppression Division!

Song Ziwei's face was extremely gloomy, and his eyes were filled with disappointment as he looked at Xie Yunfeng.

But his gaze quickly settled on Red Demon: "Red Demon, your Blood Robe Sect's reach is too far."

"This place is under the jurisdiction of my Demon-Suppressing Division. When did it become your place, a heretic and demonic figure, to spout nonsense and mislead the public!"

Chi Gui sensed the Golden Core Realm pressure emanating from Song Ziwei. A hint of fear flashed in his scarlet eyes, but his face showed no fear. Instead, he let out a strange laugh.

"Song Ziwei, stop putting on airs like you're some kind of Golden Core cultivator!"

"Others may fear you, but the Blood-Clad Sect fears nothing!"

"The Demon Suppression Bureau can't retain talent, yet it forbids others from recruiting them? What kind of logic is that?"

"Moreover, the world will judge who is right and who is wrong in today's events!"

"I believe that within a few days, news of what your Demon Suppression Division did today will spread throughout the entire Great Yan!"

"I'd like to see how you hypocrites handle this matter!"

Song Ziwei's face darkened further; he naturally understood Chi Gui's subtext.

The Blood Robe Sect also has Golden Core cultivators. If he were to attack the Blood Robe Sect's Grand Elder here, the Blood Robe Sect's Golden Core Ancestor would certainly not stand idly by!

When the two Golden Core cultivators fight fiercely in the sky above East Sea City, the scene will completely spiral out of control, and no one can bear the damage and impact it will cause!

Furthermore, high-level cultivators above the Golden Core Realm are often mutually restraining, and a change in one can affect the whole situation.

Considering various factors, all parties would not let go of such an opportunity to stir up trouble, which is an invisible check and balance.

He had already grasped the general outline of what had happened today; the Demon Suppression Division was in the wrong from the start.

Now, Cui Yi has caused chaos again, even beheading the county censors established by the royal family.

Now that the Blood-Clad Sect has gotten involved, things have already descended into complete chaos!

Now that things have come to this, both sides' attention has turned to Cui Yi.

The core of this turmoil is Cui Yi, and both sides want to see his attitude.

"Cui Yi!"

Song Ziwei's voice was somewhat somber: "I had already heard about your sincere Daoist heart when I was at the Heart-Questioning Gate."

"Today's events stem from the fact that Xie Yunfeng and his group acted improperly, using a child as bait. This goes against the original intention of our Demon-Suppressing Division to protect the people, and it also damages the dignity of the imperial court!"

"I hereby promise that I will report this matter truthfully to the Chief Judge and severely punish those responsible without any leniency!"

"Considering your dedication to the people, which led you to commit this grave error, come with me to the palace to meet the Emperor and explain the whole story!"

"His Majesty is a wise and benevolent ruler, and considering your youthful impetuosity and the fact that your actions were justified, he will surely forgive and forget!"

"At that time, you will still be a member of the Demon Suppression Division!"

"They might even gain His Majesty's favor because of their concern for the common people! Their future is bright!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

The Red Demon let out a piercing, eerie laugh, his crimson eyes mockingly fixed on Song Ziwei: "I said, Song Ziwei, stop with your childish tricks!"

"A bright future? You're kidding me. Even a ghost wouldn't believe that."

"Young friend! Don't listen to his nonsense!"

"What do you mean by 'entering the palace to meet the emperor and having one's past transgressions forgiven'? That's an utter joke!"

"By killing that royal lackey today, you have completely severed ties with the Great Yan Dynasty!"

"The nice things they're saying now are just a ploy to lure you back because of your exceptional talent and incredible combat power, so they can slowly take advantage of you!"

"Once you enter those deep palace walls, your life and death will be out of your control!"

"What petition or explanation? It's just a formality!"

"The final outcome is either having their cultivation crippled and being imprisoned until death, or being secretly executed as a warning to others!"

"We came here today to welcome Mu Yangyan's younger brother and sister-in-law, but we never expected that you would stop us from doing so first."

"For this reason alone, you are a friend of my Blood-Clad Sect!"

"With your talent, the path to the Golden Elixir is just around the corner! At that time, the world will be vast and boundless; where can't you go?"

Why confine ourselves to the rigid rules and regulations of this corrupt dynasty, dependent on others and at their beck and call?

"All Song Ziwei can offer you is a hollow promise and even stricter constraints!"

"I believe that with your intelligence, you will clearly judge which is better or worse!"

Both sides held their own versions of events, but Cui Yi was perfectly clear-headed: he absolutely could not return to the Demon Suppression Division or the Great Yan.

He is not a fool.

To execute a royal retainer in public is tantamount to rubbing the face of the Great Yan imperial power into the ground!

Such a heinous crime cannot be easily dismissed with a mere excuse that there was a reason for it.

Even though the Great Yan Emperor, in order to demonstrate his so-called magnanimity and establish himself as a benevolent and wise ruler in the eyes of the people, outwardly did not pursue the matter and even pretended to praise him...

But what about behind the scenes?

Cui Yi couldn't believe that only the following dynasties had fallen into such a state.

When you see a cockroach, it means there are so many cockroaches in the dark that they can't hide anymore!

Cui Yi raised his head, looked at the eager Red Demon, and said loudly, "If I join the Blood Robe Sect, what kind of treatment can you offer me?"

boom!

These words came out like a thunderclap from a clear sky!

Upon hearing this, the ghost's face lit up with joy, and its scarlet eyes burst forth with a blazing light!

"I am Chi Gui, the Grand Elder of the Blood Robe Sect. If you, young friend, join my Blood Robe Sect, I will personally accept you as my disciple and impart to you the supreme secret techniques of the Blood Path!"

"Within the Blood-Clad Sect's Scripture Pavilion, you are free to peruse and study all the scriptures on supernatural powers!"

"All resources needed for cultivation will be supplied with priority, and there will be absolutely no shortage!"

"Furthermore, you will enjoy the highest level of protection from the Blood-Clad Sect!"

"If anyone dares to lay a hand on you, they will be an enemy of the entire Blood Robe Sect! Our Ancestor will personally intervene to protect you!"

Where there is joy, there is also sorrow.

Song Ziwei's expression changed: "Cui Yi, you mustn't!"

"Do not be deceived by this evil demon's clever words! The Blood Robe Sect's techniques are vicious, contrary to the laws of nature, and have many limitations and backlashes!"

"Once you step in, there's no turning back! You'll regret it then!"
