Become a king right from the start, beginning with receiving rewards from all the heavens.

But who would have thought that the strange occurrences in the city would disappear?

But someone deliberately brought on the strange occurrences!

Tong Huang and his companion appeared instantly among the Li family members.

"Old man, we're late this time."

"That almost turned into a disaster!"

"We will report this matter to our superiors and request punishment!"

Tong Huang didn't make excuses for himself; as soon as he landed, he admitted that all the mistakes were on his side.

Li Yue opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Saying you don't need it would seem a bit hypocritical.

To be honest, this strange creature almost wiped out me and my family today.

It would be a lie to say that you're not angry.

The key point is that he knows the Underworld's branch in Qingzhou is mainly for the protection of his family.

That's right, Xia Zhaoyan established a branch here to protect his mother's clan.

However you look at it, what happened today was the fault of Tong Huang and the others!

Even Cai Qing, who was standing to the side, remained silent!

Finally, Li Yue sighed.

"Fellow Daoists, there's no need for that. You've already done very well today."

"The underworld also lost twelve Yin generals while protecting us."

"I am also deeply saddened!"

The mention of the twelve fallen Yin generals brought a wave of sadness to everyone present.

...

The situation in Fuyang City quickly came to the attention of the higher-ups in the Underworld and the Heavenly Punishment Bureau.

The leaders of both major forces were so frightened that they broke out in a cold sweat.

I am extremely grateful that Cai Qing arrived in time, which bought Tong Huang some time.

Therefore, Sun En and Lang Fanyun personally went to the headquarters of the Heavenly Punishment Division.

In the main hall, Li Chenzhou, Fu Hongxue, and Mu Wenhan received the two Underworld Emperors.

At this moment, Sun En and Lang Fanyun clasped their hands and bowed to express their gratitude.

"Thank you so much for what happened in Fuyang City."

"If Director Cai hadn't arrived in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable!"

Li Chenzhou quickly stepped forward and personally helped the two of them up.

"We're all on the same side, this is only natural."

"There's no need for thanks or anything like that!"

Having said that, he gestured for the two to sit down.

Mu Wenhan personally poured tea for the two of them.

The two nodded their thanks; no one would underestimate Mu Wenhan, a deputy director of the Dharma Aspect Realm.

Those summoned were all clearly identified as Mu Wenhan, Meng Zhou, Xing Wudi, and His Majesty's younger brother, Xia Lingxiao.

From now on, the imperial court will be the core force supporting local power!

These people hold a position in His Majesty's heart that is in no way inferior to that of us.

After Mu Wenhan sat down, he finally spoke.

"Gentlemen, this matter must be reported to His Majesty as soon as possible."

"And I reckon His Majesty will be angry."

"At that time, your underworld will have no choice but to make amends by personally investigating the mastermind behind this matter!"

After all, His Majesty's maternal clan was almost wiped out.

Moreover, the underworld's mission in Qingzhou was to secretly protect the Li family.

Although twelve underworld generals perished as a result.

However, punishment is unavoidable.

Everyone here knew that they wouldn't think that this matter could be wiped clean just because they were His Majesty's direct subordinates.

Sun En and Lang Fanyun exchanged a glance, both seeing the sorrow in each other's eyes.

If His Majesty becomes disappointed in the Underworld because of this matter, then the sin would be grave.

So Sun En spoke up.

"We would appreciate it if the three of you could put in a good word for us on this matter."

"There's one more thing: we'll need the Heavenly Punishment Division's help in finding the mastermind behind this!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a strong killing intent suddenly erupted around Sun En.

"Don't let us uncover the mastermind, or I swear in the underworld, we will not rest until we have reduced them to ashes!"

Mu Wenhan and the others nodded in agreement.

It's just helping out, but this has made the underworld owe a huge favor.

"Let's go, let's go to the palace together to report!"

...

Inside the palace, Feng Bao's voice rang in Xia Zhaoyan's ears.

"Your Majesty, the Heavenly Punishment Division and high-ranking officials of the Underworld request an audience!"

...

He then opened his eyes, ending his secluded cultivation.

Although this period was a time of bizarre outbreaks, Xia Zhaoyan had faith in his subordinates.

Xia Zhaoyan did not go out, but directly had Feng Bao bring people in.

...

"Your Majesty, we, your humble servants, pay our respects..."

After Deng Ping stood up, Lang Fanyun stepped forward, bowed, and began to report.

After he finished recounting what had happened in Fuyang City, the atmosphere in the main hall became extremely oppressive.

Feng Bao, who was standing to the side, was also sweating bullets for the underworld!

Finally, Xia Zhaoyan's cold voice rang out.

"Is this how the Child Emperor and his ilk protect my maternal clan?"

Although he knew that, strictly speaking, this matter could not be entirely blamed on Tong Huang and the others.

But the mission I was given was to protect my mother tribe.

During the bizarre frenzy, only twelve Yin Generals were stationed in the branch.

The emperor's imposing aura swept across the entire hall.

This caused the people below to break out in a cold sweat!

"Since I established the Underworld, I have always exercised lenient control over you and allowed you to develop freely."

"It seems you've gotten too cocky!"

"What, do you think the Underworld can ignore the world, or do you think my Great Xia can sweep across the world and make all realms submit with a single word?"

Sun En and Lang Fanyun immediately knelt on one knee and pleaded with His Majesty to calm down.

My mouth tasted bitter, and I secretly groaned inwardly.

No wonder those guys all found excuses to go out and inspect the world.

It turns out they had already guessed that they would be scolded for coming today.

Alas... I was born too late; I didn't have the foresight of those old foxes.

Xia Zhaoyan had been looking for an excuse to put pressure on his subordinate forces.

He discovered that these forces had actually grown somewhat since he ascended the throne.

He wasn't worried about these people's loyalty, since they were all resurrected by the system and wouldn't have any thoughts of betrayal.

But these people are all living, breathing human beings, with their own emotions and desires.

They have become increasingly high-profile and arrogant in their actions.

"Because of the mistakes of Tong Huang and others, my maternal clan was almost wiped out."

"And it cost me twelve Yin Generals!!"

You must understand that every person who comes into the world, even an ordinary soldier, is incredibly precious to him.

"This was caused by a mistake on your part in the underworld."

"Then I'll give you five days to investigate and find the mastermind behind this!"

"Is it possible?"

"Let's not worry about time for now," the two quickly nodded in agreement.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured, we guarantee we can do it!"

The two of them were also determined!

"Alright, get up!"

...

Meanwhile, in a distant dimensional space far from the Great Xia Dynasty, Xia Zhaoyan was reprimanding his subordinates.

A member of the White Lotus Sect, at the Shattered Realm, hurriedly entered the temple.

Report to the numerous Dragon Transformation Realm experts and their revered deities here.

"I respectfully report to the Venerable Gods and all the Ancestors."

"Mission failed!!"

Hey...

A series of regretful sighs echoed through the temple.

The faces of these Dragon Transformation Realm cultivators all wore expressions of regret.

Only the god in the center showed no sign of disappointment.

His voice was relaxed.

"That's normal. If it were possible to kill the Xia Emperor's maternal clan just by being strange, it would be impossible."

"That's really abnormal!"

Everyone thought about it and agreed!

Everyone would protect their own clan, let alone the current Xia Emperor!
