"You're just twisting concepts!" Pei Yan did not deny Mary Lavie's statent and calmly replied, "You're right, everything you said is happening all the ti, but that doesn't justify the behavior as being correct!"
Taking a deep breath, Pei Yan glanced around the hall and said calmly, "When I first entered the world of supernaturals, my ntor taught that the world is never fair. No matter how perfect the system is, it can only achieve relative fairness, not absolute fairness. That's the truth and cruelty of reality. The purpose of the existence of the Investigation Hall is to protect our fellow citizens, to seek fairness and not be humiliated in front of you arrogant, self-important cultivators! Twenty years ago it was the sa with the disciples of Celestial Sword Manor, and today it is the sa with Vlad II! I truly can't care for all the suffering in the world, and I have no interest in your otherworldly sses, but when such things happen on the land where I was born and raised and when I encounter them, I will act!"
"Because I'm an agent of the Otherworldly Investigation Hall!" Pei Yan roared passionately, "Have you forgotten this aspect of my identity after so much ti fighting the Bloodshade? My main job is to catch interdinsional murderers like Vlad II, not to accompany you in fighting the nonsense Bloodshade your lousy bunch has stirred up!"
Amid Pei Yan's outburst, the people from the Magic Realm were rendered speechless. Everyone looked at each other, unsure of what to do. Pei Yan was right; they all understood the nature of the Investigation Hall, which was founded for two purposes: to control cris committed by supernaturals and to seal spatial barriers to capture interdinsional criminal cultivators. Since Pei Yan had brought it up, the Magic Realm could no longer occupy the moral high ground under the watchful eyes of the public.
"Pei Yan, we understand your anger, but we also have our own stance! This is the venue for the Sword Tournant, and we can't let you take one of our Children of Origin away in front of everyone. Exchange people with us now, and after the competition, you find . We can then negotiate in private, and we'll definitely give you a satisfactory answer. Is that okay?" Mary Lavie sighed and negotiated.
"No! Don't say I'm not giving you face, but the credibility of your Magic Realm here is..." Pei Yan flatly rejected, not finishing his sentence, but everyone understood the aning behind his words.
"Then does that an there's no room for reconciliation!" Mary Lavie gritted her teeth and said.
"None! I've decided on Moira, I said it! Even the Origin-body won't be of any use!" Pei Yan rejected each word forcefully.
"Oh, what a boastful mouth! I'd like to see whether it's useful or not once I arrive!"
Boom! An unseen pressure suddenly weighed upon Pei Yan's body. He tried to resist but found that no matter how much he unleashed his own source energy, it felt as though he were punching a cotton wool, with no place to exert force; all resistance was dispelled, and he was forced to his knees on the arena.
It was the main body avatar of the Magic Realm's Origin. Pei Yan checked the surroundings through the cara behind him to see his companions' reactions, but he was shocked to find that whether it was the experts from the Investigation Hall who ca to support, or the personnel from the Magic Realm, all of them seed to be cast with an Immobility Curse, standing motionless, even their expressions frozen, just like Mary Lavie opposite him, still poised to react furiously.
"Except for the central position of the arena, ti all around has frozen at this mont, and the broadcast has also stopped! You shouldn't resist; right now, you're no match for him. Leave your body to , and I'll handle it," Lin Junzhao's voice echoed in Pei Yan's mind. Relieved, Pei Yan willingly relinquished control of his body, and the mont Lin Junzhao took over, he felt a powerful force welling up from within, the pressure around him lting away, and his body gradually straightening up from the ground.
"Hmph, you've beco more shaless; jumping directly from behind the scenes to the stage! Targeting a junior in person; you can still do that!" With Lin Junzhao controlling Pei Yan's body, a disdainful look appeared on his face as he taunted the man materializing before him.
As she spoke, four figures appeared on the arena besides the Magic Realm's Origin-body K. Only those who were also Origin-bodies of other realms could break through K's set rules to appear, and with this, the six Venerable Faces from different planes finally stood together face to face in the match.
"Hehehe, in terms of behind-the-scenes manipulation abilities, I can only bow to you. I don't know when you beca so close to that old ghost, plotting against together!" K's gaze swiftly flickered between Lin Junzhao and the Demon God, speaking in a sarcastic tone.
"K, don't try to intimidate with words! My cooperation with your Magic Realm over the years, you know it better than I do, but when push ca to shove, what did you do? Ruthlessly eliminate my people, betraying my interests; did you think I wouldn't fight back?" The Demon God scoffed at K's words and retorted coldly.
"Ah! Old ghost, I told you this was just a temporary asure. I have my own plans, and I would definitely compensate you thereafter. After so many years of friendship, why don't you trust ?" K sighed helplessly at the accusation, his eyes filled with pained emotions as he looked at the Demon God.
"Trusting you, I'd die without knowing how I died. Generously sacrificing friends' interests and then hypocritically claiming it's for their own good, your shalessness has surpassed the first ti I t you. How did you woo and promise back then, hahaha! And then you colluded with others to imprison ." Lin Junzhao chuckled and interjected with mockery upon hearing this.
K's face changed abruptly, and he roared angrily, "There's no place for you to speak in our conversation. I now regret handing you over to others to watch over; perhaps none of today's troubles would have occurred had I overseen your custody myself!"
"You always bla others for your faults. Of all people, you know the reason behind today's situation! Then co and imprison ! Let's see if you still have the capability, because during the days of my imprisonnt, all I thought about every waking mont was settling the scores with you, to let you taste what it's like to be treated like livestock, waiting to be butchered!" Years of stored resentnt and anger exploded at that mont, and Lin Junzhao no longer concealed his thoughts, shouting at K while simultaneously having Pei Yan's body instantly chanize into a combat stance under her control.
