Chapter 1200: The Venerated One (1/2)

Befuddlement filled the eyes of Du Guxun and his friends when they looked at that skyward radiance. They didn’t understand what was going on and why the venerated enforcer had been disturbed for no reason at all.

One had to know that though they’d destroyed Zhuo Bufan’s faction in the alliance, Zhuo Bufan and his crew had done the same to them before! Incidents like these happened all the time and the venerated one had never cared about them before. How dare Zhuo Bufan call upon him now??

Though the venerated enforcer wasn’t one of the kings in the alliance, he wielded absolute authority in the Enforcer Alliance. In fact, he dared execute even the children of the kings. There were a hundred and eight kings, but only one venerated enforcer. The venerated one was their spokesperson.

A faint figure slowly walked out of a patch of scintillating brilliance. It looked like a young man of eighteen years with loose hair floating easily behind him. He wore clean white robes and didn’t look too eye-catching. In fact, he was rather ordinary and no one would spare him a second glance in the middle of a crowd.

However, he exuded a commanding presence that sent chills down one’s back. The venerated enforcer, the greatest of the alliance beneath a titled king!

There were even some who suspected that he was strong enough to be a king, that he only needed to attend his conferment ceremony.

“What is it?” He floated down to a standing position in front of Zhuo Bufan and the others, who hastily bowed to express their respect.

“Greetings to the venerated one!” Zhuo Bufan took a deep breath, recalling what Lu Yun had transmitted to him earlier. “In response to the venerated one, this subordinate received orders to investigate the Dubiety Realm’s destruction. Some progress has been made.”

“Oh?” The venerated enforcer raised an eyebrow. “You can just make your report at the Hall of Enforcement for something as minor as this. Why disturb me?” He regarded Zhuo Bufan with an unpleasant look.

“There is another matter,” the good-for-nothing soldiered on doggedly. “Someone has meddled with the chaos sun and moon in the lower realm and ignited a chaos tribulation. Almost all of the chaos creatures died in it. This subordinate wanted to present these findings, but Du Guxun and his men obstructed me in every possible way upon my return. They even mobbed me earlier to attack me. Please look into this matter, oh venerated one.”

“What?! Someone’s meddled with the chaos sun and moon?!” The venerated enforcer jerked his head up and peered at where the chaos sun hung high in the purple sky, an ugly expression spreading across his face.

At his level of skill, he could naturally discern that the energy within the sun had been fully discharged, as if a chaos tribulation had just taken place. However, it was hardly time for one to erupt, and he hadn’t noticed any of the necessary changes that would’ve taken place beforehand.

Since the chaos sun and moon were located in the second realm, no Hongmeng expert would detect a chaos tribulation taking place as they were in different planes.

“Indeed!” Zhuo Bufan nodded. “In the chaos, this subordinate executed Evilfox of Cangmang Mountain and four unidentified Hongmeng beings for unauthorized entry. I was about to make a report, but this group continuously blocked my way. I humbly beseech the venerated one to make a full investigation!”

It felt like a bolt of lightning had struck Du Guxun and the others. When they’d destroyed Zhuo Bufan’s faction in the organization, they’d never thought that he was absent because he was in the chaos!

Commonly regarded as trash, how had the dandy of a second generation been sent on such an important mission?? If they’d known beforehand, they wouldn’t have dared block his way no matter what, much less beat him up!

As he relayed his encounter, Zhuo Bufan presented Evilfox’s body and the heads of Huo Zongxing and the others. The venerated enforcer’s face darkened even further.

“All of you, get out of my sight. There will be no mercy shown the next time you interfere with the law being carried out!” he shouted at Du Guxun’s group.

“Our deepest gratitude!” They scrambled away, having been pardoned from certain grave punishment.
