Chapter 378: Enforcing Justice on Behalf of Heaven (2/2)

Outside, the blood rain gradually stopped, and the dark clouds in the sky dispersed. The day became bright once again. Qin Mu and the rest walked out of the huge hall and rose into the air to avoid the blood water on the ground.

The sky was clear, with no clouds for ten thousand miles. The battle above Eternal Empire Empire was like a dream that had never happened.

Sunshine came from the west, and the blue sky looked clear as though it had been washed clean. The air seemed to have become much fresher as well.

The group stood in the air and examined their surroundings. Suddenly, Qin Mu looked to the north and saw a humongous object flying over.

It was Sunshot Divine Cannon, and it was actually hurrying over to them through the sky!

Emperor Yanfeng and Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor stood on the floating battery, their clothes fluttering in the breeze. There were numerous officials by their side as well. Qin Mu had taught Emperor Yanfeng how to control Sunshot Divine Cannon, so he was probably the one who had fired it earlier.

On the battery, the flames of the pill furnaces gave off white-colored rays while the divine eye in the center was slowly revolving around and giving off terrifying might.

Emperor Yanfeng's face was shining with happiness, and he was full of enthusiasm.

”The divine cannon that you forged has shot down a god,” Long Yu said. ”The era has changed, even a mortal can kill a god that's high above. Human Emperor, is this a good thing or a bad thing?”

”I don't know. I only know that the gods can no longer behave unscrupulously!”

Qin Mu's mind trembled. The Sunshot Divine Cannon he had forged had shot down a god that was high above. It was a kind of supreme honor!

Long Yu looked at him and suddenly sighed meaningfully. ”Human Emperor, there are many collections in my Little Jade Capital. If you have the time, I would suggest you read about the history of the previous eras.”

Qin Mu was slightly stunned. He flew over to the battery and smiled. ”I still have to return to the capital and research with Sister Yuxiu on how to cultivate primordial spirit on Six Directions Realm, to push ahead with the reform. When there's time, I will go to Little Jade Capital. The old immortals there even promised me to let me have a chance to enter Hall of Five Qi.”

Long Yu sighed and didn't say anymore.

Wang Muran was drunk with cultivation while Mu Qingdai couldn't sit still. Among the three disciples of Little Jade Capital, Long Yu was the only one calm enough to browse through the numerous books their sacred ground possessed.

Sunshot Divine Cannon killing a god was admittedly shocking, but the consequences it might bring worried him.

Wang Muran and Mu Qingdai also went toward the battery, so Long Yu could only follow along.

”Your Majesty. Imperial Preceptor!”

Qin Mu and the rest landed on the battery and greeted the people there. Eternal Yanfeng could hardly conceal his excitement as he waved his hand. He said with a smile, ”There's no need for formalities, Minister Qin! This cannon…”

Qin Mu smiled and said, ”Does Your Majesty feel invigorated?”

Emperor Yanfeng was full of enthusiasm as he laughed out loud. ”Great! This cannon I used just killed a god that had sent the disaster; this is far more than invigorating. This is enforcing justice on behalf of heaven! It's a pity that the other gods had run away too fast; otherwise, we could have let Imperial Preceptor feel great, and even Minister Qin to have a taste of it!”

A scribe behind him coughed and said in a low voice, ”Your Majesty, mind your words…”

Emperor Yanfeng waved his hand and smiled. ”Just don't record it and it will be fine. I have long itching to fire at least one bloody shot. But what could I do when it exhausts that much medicinal stones? If I hadn't heard that Minister Qin was in danger, having been kidnapped by a weird-looking god and there were gods fighting around here, I wouldn't have had the chance to use this huge cannon!

”That's right, Minister Qin, come and meet this victim, the sect leader of Great White Sword Sect. He came to make an imperial appeal, saying you brought a weird-looking existence and a bunch of flood dragons to seize his Great White Sword Sect.”

Qin Mu looked behind Emperor Yanfeng and saw a white-haired elder step out with a smile.

”This sect leader said that you and that weird man seized the treasure of his Great White Sword Sect.” Emperor Yanfeng smiled and said, ”I felt that something was wrong here, so I invited Imperial Preceptor. He said that your Heavenly Saint Cult didn't have so many flood dragons so you were most likely in danger.”

Qin Mu thanked Imperial Preceptor.

Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor shook his head. ”There's no need to thank me, just thank Great White Sect Leader. If he didn't come forth to submit an imperial appeal, nobody would have known you were in danger.”

Great White Sect Leader immediately said, ”One who does not know is not guilty. I thought Cult Master Qin wanted to seize our Great White Sword Sect and swallow our treasure, so I had gone forth to the capital in a hurry. Never would I have expected to be doing a meritorious deed by this. Cult Master Qin, are there any treasures in our Great White Mountain? If Cult Master really got a treasure, could it be returned to our Great White Sword Sect?”

”This…”

Qin Mu revealed a troubled expression, truly at a loss. He didn't know if he should tell the truth to the Great White Sect Leader.

Suddenly, a soldier flew over and reported, ”Your Majesty, the god's corpse has been found!”

Emperor Yanfeng's spirit was greatly roused. He waved his hand and smiled. ”Bring it up!”
