Little Pei Pei looked serious and sincere, and didn't look like he was lying at all.

Xue Kong no longer dwelled on this point. He looked at Xiao Peipei and was about to say something to comfort her, but at this moment, he saw that Xiao Peipei's face looked a little ugly.

"What's wrong with you?" Xue Kong asked.

Little Pei Pei opened his mouth and said, "Someone is here to catch you."

Xue Kong's head buzzed, and before he could react to what Xiao Peipei meant, he saw the others all looking up at the sky behind him.

He turned around and looked.

In the distant sky, an auspicious cloud was floating slowly. The cloud seemed to be moving slowly, but in fact it was unimaginably fast. It was far away in the last second, and it was in front of everyone in the next second.

On top of the auspicious cloud, there was a middle-aged scholar.

The middle-aged scholar stood with his hands behind his back, his demeanor calm and composed. He looked at the monks expressionlessly, his eyes sweeping across everyone's faces before he said calmly, "I am an envoy from the High Heavenly Kingdom."

"Everyone, why don't you kneel down and listen to the order from the Higher Heaven?" His voice was very calm, but it contained unquestionable dominance.

"The envoy of the Upper Heaven!"

The old Taoist Yuanying opened his eyes slightly and looked carefully at the middle-aged scholar for a long time. He had seen several envoys from the upper heaven in the past. When reminded by the other party, a sense of familiarity suddenly came over him.

So without hesitation, he immediately knelt down in front of the middle-aged scholar and said, "We are from the third-level cultivation nation, Purple Moon Country, and we pay our respects to the envoy."

The Yuanying Taoist priest did the same, and the other cultivators from the Purple Moon Nation followed suit, kneeling down towards the middle-aged scholar.

Plop, plop, plop.

The middle-aged scholar was very satisfied with this scene. He then looked at the people of Jingwu Kingdom with an indifferent look. Without any hint, Master Guanglin and other monks of Jingwu Kingdom knelt down one after another.

Groups of monks knelt in mid-air or on magic weapons, showing a gesture of submission.

However, only two people did not kneel.

Xue Kong and Xiao Peipei, one squatting and the other standing, both turned their heads to look at the middle-aged scholar.

"I am following the order from the Heavenly Kingdom above. Seeing that both Jingwu Kingdom and Ziyue Kingdom have produced Nascent Soul cultivators, I have come here in person to order your two countries to be upgraded to the fourth-level cultivation countries." The middle-aged scholar ignored Xue Kong and Xiao Peipei and spoke to himself.

"In three days, envoys from the Kingdom of Heaven will arrive at the royal palaces of your respective kingdoms, bearing rewards. This war between great powers will come to an end."

As the middle-aged scholar spoke, everyone here was convinced.

Wen Rensheng's eyes were filled with excitement, his hands clenched into fists, and his body trembled slightly as he said, "Finally! This day has finally arrived. Jingwu Nation has been promoted to a fourth-level cultivation nation!"

The Yuanying Taoist sighed inwardly, "Alas, it's all in vain, just like trying to draw water with a bamboo basket."

The envoy of the higher heavenly kingdom spoke personally and issued an order. No matter how unwilling he was, he had no choice but to obey, and he had no intention of disobeying.

Not to mention the Upper Heavenly Kingdom, this envoy alone can destroy his Purple Moon Kingdom with a wave of his hand. This is a power far beyond that of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

"As for you two, just follow this envoy and go with me to the Upper Kingdom to have an audience..." The middle-aged scholar spoke softly, his eyes falling on Xue Kong and Xiao Peipei.

The other cultivators bowed their heads in submission, none of them understood why the envoys from the Upper Heavenly Kingdom wanted to take these two away. Little Pei Pei was one thing, as his cultivation was unfathomable, and it was possible that he had some connection with the Upper Heavenly Kingdom.

But Xue Kong is a cultivator born and raised in Jingwu country, and his cultivation level is not high. Why does he have this honor?

When they were in doubt.

Before the middle-aged scholar could finish his words, little Pei Pei, with a murderous look on his face, took a few steps barefoot and stopped Xue Kong behind him, angrily saying, "You are not allowed to arrest my brother again!"

"Your brother?" The middle-aged scholar was startled, then laughed and said, "He is not your brother."

However, little Peipei didn't listen to him at all. She raised her little hand with her palm facing the middle-aged scholar. As the other party's expression changed drastically, little Peipei clenched her right fist.

In an instant, a space crack suddenly appeared behind the middle-aged scholar, almost sticking to the middle-aged scholar's body, as if to swallow him.

"No! Xiao Peipei, I was entrusted by someone, you can't kill me!" The middle-aged scholar's face turned pale. With his identity and status, in this thirteen realms of heaven and earth, no one can make him do this except the upper heaven itself.

But at this moment, his body was out of control.

The space crack exuded a cold and chilling aura, as well as a terrifying force that could tear space apart. This force was far beyond the middle-aged scholar's own cultivation level, making it impossible for him to resist, and he was sucked into the space crack.

The whole person had no time to do anything, and he was visibly turned into a human-shaped ice sculpture, sinking into the boundless space crack.

This envoy from the higher heaven was killed!

"How does he know my name is Xiao Peipei? He is indeed a bad guy!" Xiao Peipei murmured slightly angrily.

Everyone present was stunned.

The high-ranking envoy of Heaven... was killed?

They all knelt there, kneeling towards the empty void, unable to believe it for a moment.

The envoys of the Heavenly Kingdom would be treated with piety wherever they went, but now, they were killed in Jingwu Kingdom.

Wen Rensheng's head was filled with thunder and lightning, and he almost fainted.

The envoy died in Jingwu Kingdom. Once the Upper Heavenly Kingdom blamed him, the entire Jingwu Kingdom would be reduced to rubble. In the hundreds of years he had been in the world, he had never heard of an envoy being killed.

Everyone was stunned and didn't know how to react for a moment.

"You... killed him?" Xue Kong also froze in place. After a pause, he asked.
