Chapter 438: Sword Thunder

Translator: TransnEditor: Transn

The Divine Priest of Revelation was in the horse carriage.

The proud cavalrymen of Divine Hall could not sit on horseback before the Great Divine Priest. They got off the horses and knelt before the horse carriage, ignoring sayings that they couldn't bow in armor.

Chen Bachi's expression grew ugly, and he slowly knelt with the help of his attendant.

”Ye Hongyu left the Judicial Department. But it does not mean that she has betrayed the Divine Hall.”

”Because leaving does not equate to betrayal.”

There was a sigh in the carriage.

Cheng Lixue could sense the sadness of the Divine Priest of Revelation and he grew angry and sad. Cheng Lixue's snow white hair danced faster and faster. He blankly looked at Chen Bachi who knelt before the horse carriage and said coldly, ”Go and receive your punishment.”

Chen Bachi violently whipped his head up to look at Cheng Lixue. If not for the bandages around his eyes, one would probably see vicious hatred in them.

At the palace in the Wilderness last year, Cheng Lixue had been the one who had sent him to receive the punishment of beatings with a thorn stick. Ye Hongyu had betrayed the Divine Hall and blinded him, why did he have to be punished?

The summer breeze sped through the cliff, lifting the curtains of the horse carriage. A wizened hand was revealed as it landed on the window lattice, knocking against it slowly.

That was the Great Divine Priest of Revelation's hand.

The cavalry and decons lowered their head and dared not look at the hand.

Chen Bachi could not see, so he continued to look in that direction with a spiteful expression.

The wizened old hand continued to knock on the windows.

An aura enveloped them.

Those by the horse carriage could hear the knocking, and an odd fear rose from their chest.

One of them saw Chen Bachi's face and fell to the ground in horror.

Chen Bachi did not sense or see anything.

His expression was still spiteful, as if he was trying to find a rebuttal.

However, he couldn't speak when he opened his mouth.

He touched his mouth, and touched a wet and sticky object.

There was something very sweet in his mouth.

Then, he realized what had happened. The vicious expression on his face faded into terror and hopelessness.

His tongue was gone.

There was only blood and bits of flesh in his mouth.

Everyone was terrified as they saw the blood streaming out of Chen Bachi's mouth. Some could not stop their shouts of terror from escaping. A few cavalrymen of Divine Hall subconsciously moved forward and stopped in a sudden. They knew that this was the punishment of the Divine Priest inside the horse carriage.

The Great Divine Priest of Revelation's voice rang from the carriage again.

”You shouldn't have spoken.”

”You do not know how to speak.”

”But you want to pass messages for others.”

”Then you shan't ever speak again.”

...

...

The lavish horse carriage dealt with matters of the cavalryman of Divine Hall and sped towards the four majestic temples on the Peach Mountain without delay.

In the dark horse carriage, the Great Divine Priest of Revelation looked at the summer lands in the Peach Mountain. After a long silence, he said, ”I don't wish to and shouldn't interfere in matters in the Judicial Department. But it seems that I must interfere, so I did.”

Cheng Lixue did not speak. He looked at the divine priest's weary face and was suddenly annoyed at the bigwig sitting upon the Ink Jade Throne.

The different horse carriages of the delegation had long split up, leaving behind only the black and gold horse carriage of the Great Divine Priest of Revelation. It sped to the highest part of the temples and came to a black colored, solemn temple.

The horse carriage stopped before the grand and majestic temple, looking insignificant and lonely. However, the deacons, no matter which temple they belonged to, all appeared startled and respectful when they saw who was in it.

They respected the Divine Priest inside the horse carriage.

They were shocked that the Great Divine Priest of Revelation had appeared at the Temple of Judgment.

The three Great Divine Priests of West-Hill Divine Palace had never entered other temples except their own's. This was out of respect for others, and because of their own pride.

The people knelt on the stone steps outside the temple and by the pillars. They knelt by the roads and looked at the horse carriage uneasily. They did not know what happened earlier today.

They watched the wizened Great Divine Priest of Revelation emerge from the horse carriage slowly. He walked up the stone steps slowly and entered the black Temple of Judgement. The people watching were all surprised.

The Great Divine Priest of Revelation was very old and frail.

But he seemed strong and big when he walked into the Temple of Judgment. He looked just as tall as the roof of the temple.

He walked across the smooth stone floors. Everyone in the Judicial Department knelt and welcomed him.

It didn't matter what the Great Divine Priest of Revelation's presence at their temple meant to the Judicial Department. He could be here to shame or challenge them. But other than the Great Divine Priest of Judgment, there wasn't anyone who could reveal how they truly felt.

The Great Divine Priest of Revelation walked into the Temple of Judgement. He stood before the empty halls and looked at the beaded curtains afar. He stopped and did not continue forward.

He was here to talk, so he had to walk into the Judicial Hall. However, if he continued forward, the ill-tempered fellow behind the bead curtains would definitely think that he was here to fight.

The Great Divine Priest of West-Hill was human after all, and humans would definitely have emotions.

The Great Divine Priest of Revelation looked at the figure behind the beaded curtains and said, ”I went to the South Jin Kingdom and brought back the ashes of someone.”
