The dicine Sect mbers all nodded, each wearing a dissatisfied expression as they glared at the three Law Enforcers.
The man clad in golden armor maintained a cold deanor and said in a grave tone, "We don’t ddle in mortal disputes; we only oversee matters concerning Terrestrial Immortals!"
"So what you’re saying is, they can kill our people, and we, the Terrestrial Immortals, should just stand by and watch them do it?" The Second Elder roared indignantly.
"If you have the ability, you can kill them too. As long as Terrestrial Immortals don’t interfere with mortals, we won’t get involved!" the golden-armored man replied coolly.
"Nonsense!" the Second Elder imdiately shouted angrily, "If we could kill them, would we even need to act ourselves?"
"Oh, so what you’re saying is, only you can kill their people, and they’re not allowed to kill yours?" The golden-armored man sneered, "Hmph, where in the world does such logic exist? Are you overly arrogant or what?"
"Well said!" Su Yang’s group imdiately began cheering, and many started applauding. The words spoken by the golden-armored man hit the nail on the head for everyone present.
"You..." The Second Elder trembled with fury but ultimately had no way to retort.
"Enough talking—take him away!" The golden-armored man commanded coldly.
The two accompanying Law Enforcers stepped forward once again. A glint of cold light flashed in the Second Elder’s eyes, and he suddenly roared, "I dare you to try!"
As he spoke, the Second Elder took a bold step forward, blocking the two Law Enforcers.
"Do you intend to defy the Heavenly Court!?" The golden-armored leader squinted slightly.
"I don’t intend to defy anything. It’s just that your approach is wrong, and I won’t accept it!" The Second Elder said fiercely.
"Hmph, your opinion ans nothing!" The golden-armored man retorted coldly and rushed directly toward the Second Elder.
The Second Elder proved formidable, daring to attack the golden-armored man.
Yet, how could a re mortal face off against a Law Enforcer?
Each Law Enforcer was selected from the top three warriors on the Heavenly List. After entering the Heavenly Court, they underwent rigorous training, greatly enhancing their power before they could take up the role of Law Enforcer.
Though the Second Elder was undeniably powerful, his strength paled next to that of these Law Enforcers.
In less than three moves, the Second Elder was forced back by the Law Enforcer, who nearly wrenched his arm off.
Infuriated, the Second Elder shouted, "Everyone, attack together! Don’t be afraid of them!"
The dicine Sect’s Terrestrial Immortals charged forward, intending to overwhelm the three Law Enforcers with sheer numbers.
At that exact mont, the sound of thunder rang out from the heavens. Following that, more than ten golden-armored Law Enforcers descended directly onto the scene, encircling the dicine Sect group.
Faced with this, the dicine Sect’s Terrestrial Immortals imdiately quieted down. They had no choice—there were more than ten of them, while even three Law Enforcers had proven insurmountable. Against this many, they stood no chance.
Even the Second Elder conceded, watching helplessly as the golden-armored n captured the Terrestrial Immortal. The captured Immortal pleaded and begged for help, looking to him for rescue, but he dared not utter a single word.
After apprehending the Terrestrial Immortal, the leading golden-armored man cast the Second Elder a contemptuous glance and said coldly, "Useless!"
"You!" The Second Elder was enraged, shouting, "Don’t go too far!"
"What can you do about it?" The golden-armored man retorted without a shred of respect.
The Second Elder swallowed his indignation, his face frozen with an icy expression.
The golden-armored man spat coldly and led the captive Terrestrial Immortal away.
As the Law Enforcers departed, the remaining Terrestrial Immortals from the dicine Sect sighed in relief, fearing they might have been captured as well.
Confronted by these Law Enforcers, the group had truly felt their own insignificance; they were utterly outmatched.
Su Yang witnessed it all, staring in shock. He hadn’t expected the Law Enforcers to act with such swiftness and efficiency.
This situation turned out advantageous—many of the dicine Sect’s Terrestrial Immortals were now so terrified, they wouldn’t dare make a single move. Su Yang could seize this opportunity to annihilate them entirely.
Still, for reasons unknown, Su Yang felt an odd unease. For now, he refrained from ordering the destruction of the dicine Sect group.
At the sa ti, high above Qinghe Academy, several figures stood quietly amidst the void.
Leading the group was the Academy’s Dean. Beside him were several high-ranking mbers of Qinghe Academy.
The Director of Teaching stood near the Dean. All were closely observing the situation at the Shen Family Courtyard.
Seeing the Law Enforcers apprehend the dicine Sect’s Terrestrial Immortal, the Director’s expression changed. He said gravely, "These people are extrely conniving. Doing this will almost certainly compel the dicine Sect to agree to altering the current celestial rules."
"Indeed!" One teacher muttered, "Preventing them from intervening against mortals clearly sets the stage for Su Yang to annihilate the dicine Sect’s group. If that truly happens, the dicine Sect will undoubtedly be provoked, driving them to fully support modifying the celestial rules!"
"It’s more than that!" another teacher chid in, "Given the dicine Sect’s influence among the Ten Great Sects, they’ll likely rally the other sects to collectively approve changing the current celestial order!"
"Oh no, Su Yang absolutely must restrain himself from killing them, or he’ll be playing right into the Heavenly Court’s trap!" a third teacher exclaid.
The teachers behind him sighed in unison, frustrated by the Heavenly Court’s deceit but powerless to intervene.
"Should we attempt to persuade him to spare them?" one teacher suggested softly.
"Is that even feasible?" another teacher questioned, "The dicine Sect has been adamant in their attempts to kill Su Yang. Given tonight’s perfect chance, Su Yang is unlikely to let them off the hook. Tomorrow, when the dicine Sect joins forces with others to attack again, Su Yang will have no defense left. Asking him now to spare them seems unrealistic."
The other teachers nodded reluctantly. This logic was undeniable; convincing Su Yang to spare the dicine Sect was implausible.
After a brief silence, the Dean murmured apprehensively, "Regardless, we must try. I’ll send him a transmission and hope he listens to reason!"
"Will it work?" The Director of Teaching chuckled bitterly, knowing Su Yang’s temperant too well. After observing him extensively during Su Yang’s ti at Qinghe Academy, such hope felt fleeting.
