Prince Longyang attempts to seize military power, but the Southern and Western Guardian Kings refuse, citing the ongoing crisis. When Prince Longyang threatens to strip their titles, they openly defy him and attempt to leave, only to be blocked by the Inspection Hall. The Southern Guardian King challenges Si Haixian, and the two Guardian Kings forcibly leave.

The grand hall instantly fell silent, as if death itself had descended.

Everyone watched the gradually disappearing backs of the Southern Guardian King and the Western Guardian King. Only after they completely vanished did they turn their gaze back to Prince Longyang.

Prince Longyang angrily declared, "Is there anyone else who wishes to leave? If you want to go, you may leave right now. I will not force you to stay."

When he finished speaking, no one responded.

Although no one followed the Southern Guardian King and Western Guardian King in leaving the hall, everyone knew that their departure rendered the meeting almost meaningless. Prince Longyang himself was clearly aware of this, and thus planned to say nothing further.

There are things better said after dealing with the Southern Guardian King and Western Guardian King. By then, people will truly submit with sincerity, otherwise they’ll be deceitful on the surface while working in opposition behind the scenes, leading You Country into disarray.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that many might even secretly pledge allegiance to the enemy, given the numerous ancestors of the royal family who have fallen and are utterly unable to resist the overwhelming forces.

When Prince Longyang found himself at a loss for words, Sikong Zhuxing angrily asked, "Your Highness, what do you say? As long as you’re resolute, I’m ready. Although there are pitifully few King-Sealing experts in You Country, those who should be killed must be eliminated; keeping them will only lead to disaster sooner or later."

Once these words were spoken, almost everyone’s expression in the hall changed, though the reactions varied, with apprehension being the most common.

The next moment, Prince Longyang spoke coldly, causing most in the hall to show an expression of shock, unable to believe what they heard.

"I am the last King-Sealing member of the royal family, and my orders should be the supreme command of the royal family. As figures within the military as King-Sealing experts, not following royal commands is treason! From today, their titles are revoked, and an order for immediate execution is issued!"

Sikong Zhuxing nodded immediately, "Yes!"

With those words spoken.

The crowd exchanged looks, filled with surprise and doubt.

No one expected Prince Longyang to act so decisively; as soon as the Southern Guardian King and Western Guardian King departed, he immediately stripped them of their titles and issued an order for their execution, making it a fight to the death.

On what basis does Prince Longyang act?

Based on himself and the Inspection Hall, along with Si Haixian newly stepping into the Upper Realm?

At that moment, the King-Sealing expert, who had remained silent thus far, finally stepped forward but did not intervene, only offering a reminder: "Your Highness, be cautious. The strength of the Southern Guardian King is well-known, and few King-Sealing experts can compare."

His words voiced what most people in the hall wanted to say. While they had a numerical advantage, the disparity in strength was unusually large. Frankly speaking, the Southern Guardian King alone could likely handle Prince Longyang and the other two without difficulty.

Prince Longyang glanced at the King-Sealing expert who spoke, saying nothing more, understanding that although he hadn’t joined his camp outright, he hadn’t opposed him either, which was enough. There was no need to say anything else at that moment.

"In three days, the assembly will reconvene!"

Leaving those words behind, Prince Longyang leisurely departed, with Si Haixian and Sikong Zhuxing following closely. The first order of business after leaving was to contact Chen Xie.

After Prince Longyang left, the other people in the hall began to depart one by one, their conversations lively as they departed, a stark contrast to their earlier silence.

Some hadn’t gotten far from the grand hall before turning to their friends and asking, "What plans next? Will you pledge allegiance to the Immortal Sect or start your own faction?"

"Given the current situation, with Prince Longyang audaciously waging war against the Southern Guardian King and Western Guardian King, you Country seems to have little future. I’d like to pledge to the Immortal Sect, but they won’t accept me. If one can’t conquer the Master’s Dao Maze, no matter how strong, they cannot join the Immortal Sect. So, I might choose to establish my own faction," the half-step Celestial Unrestricted Vice Domain Master concluded with a shake of his head before leaving like a shooting star.

Compared to their situation, more individuals circled around after leaving the grand hall and secretly headed toward the Southern Guardian King and Western Guardian King.

It was clear they were already preparing to choose sides.

Some people chose to continue observing, staying neutral, because, at worst, they could create their own faction and life would go on. After all, bowing to someone matters little.

...

The Undistracted Pavilion.

Chen Xie flipped through documents while responding to Prince Longyang and the other two on the other end of the Sound Transmission Stone, "No matter, if you must kill, just kill. Don’t hesitate; such individuals aren’t worth the time to recruit. I can send someone over to join forces with you to eliminate them both."

"It’s best not to overreach. The Sect Leader is pressing now; ensuring absolutely no mistakes is crucial. Though the three of you aren’t weaker than those two, killing them will be challenging. If they were to flee with resolve, how could the three of you pursue them?"

After contemplating for a few moments, Prince Longyang still shook his head, "No need for now. We can manage the current situation. If it truly becomes unmanageable, then send reinforcements. Besides, the Undistracted Pavilion is expanding rapidly, and manpower is stretched thin."

Chen Xie responded, "Don’t be so stubborn. I’ll summon Elder Sword Demon; those two will be no issue. But for the subsequent matters, you’ll need to handle it personally. Elder Sword Demon mentioned before – if there was an enemy from the Upper Realm, be sure to notify him. He can come regardless of what he’s doing."

"That’s precisely why Elder Sword Demon must not be called." Sikong Zhuxing hurriedly declined from the other end of the Sound Transmission Stone, "I know if Elder Sword Demon comes, those two aren’t a problem, but this matter is something we requested to handle, so if we can avoid troubling the Sect, we should. Simply put, we wish to do something for the Sect!"

"Alright then, since you’ve made your decision, I won’t say more. Keep in touch if anything arises." Chen Xie immediately cut off the Sound Transmission Stone’s connection.

Sikong Zhuxing on the other end smiled helplessly after detecting no sound from the Sound Transmission Stone, "We choose to do something for the Sect, and volunteered for this; it’s not right to ask for assistance over every issue, especially when we can manage the Southern Guardian King and Western Guardian King."

"Yes, with the three of us, it’s not a problem to kill them both." Si Haixian eagerly spoke, ready for action.

"When to act?" Prince Longyang inquired.

Sikong Zhuxing pondered for a few breaths before saying, "Wait a moment longer; since we aim to kill them, we must not give them any chance to flee. After nightfall, I’ll have the Inspection Hall personnel dismantle the Curved Realm Passage in the city; let’s prepare now."

"Later, the Western Guardian King can be my first priority; I’ll eliminate him swiftly then join forces with you to deal with the Southern Guardian King." Si Haixian responded eagerly.

After a brief discussion, the trio began refining their plan, understanding that defeating a King-Sealing expert was simple, but killing them was difficult.

But just after nightfall, a terrifying aura abruptly appeared, shattering the night’s tranquility, causing Prince Longyang to change his expression first.

"He arrived so quickly!"

Sikong Zhuxing was stunned, probing outwardly while asking in confusion, "Who?"

"Yao Ri, biological father of the former You Country Sovereign Ji. He previously nearly thwarted my ambition for the position of You Country Sovereign."

Prince Longyang spoke coldly, then strolled to the window, gazing at the pitch-black night sky, soon hearing a thunderous voice shout.

"All individuals above Celestial Unrestricted, come to see me immediately; you have half an incense stick’s time. Those who don’t arrive will die!"

Yao Ri’s voice exploded above the city.

"Shall we go?"

Si Haixian inquired.

Prince Longyang decisively stated, "Go, why wouldn’t we. To take over You Country, Yao Ri and Tian Wuxin are hurdles to overcome. But before that, we must notify Elder Chen; fearing Elder Sword Demon can’t come."
