"Hmph, Yan Ligu, are you still not giving up on pleading for that newcomer?"
"I think you're just trying to sneak away!"
Upon hearing this, Yan Ligu suddenly curled his lips into a smile and burst into laughter. "Hahaha! I never expected that the Chief Judge would be so foolish and ignorant. The Nine Springs Realm is connected to the entire universe, and the most difficult thing to escape is the pursuit of the Nine Springs Realm. How could you say such ridiculous things?"
"I...I just...I was just speaking offhand!"
Yan Ligu chuckled as he looked at the man. "Colloquial speech? Every judge in my Nine Springs Realm is a master of debate. How could you make such a colloquial error? Tell me, who exactly are you!"
"This, I..."
Suddenly, Qingmu raged, "Traitor! Who gave you the right to impersonate the judge! Die!"
Yan Ligu hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, "Wait a minute!"
The moment Qingmu's palm struck down, a gust of wind hit Yan Ligu's mask, causing it to crack and shatter into a quarter of its original shape!
Qingmu stared at the part of Yan Ligu's face that was exposed, and was momentarily stunned. She then came to her senses and withdrew her hand. "Lord Yan, are you alright?"
Yan Li's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he shook his head. "Thank you, Judge Qingmu, for showing mercy. This person must be a wandering soul that has infiltrated. I think I can interrogate him and get some information out of him."
Qingmu nodded. "Lord Yan has considered everything carefully. Then this matter will be left to Lord Yan to handle!"
"Qingmu, Yan Ligu is currently serving his sentence. How can we hand this person over to him for disposal?"
Qingmu looked at the person who spoke and said coldly, "Junhe, you have just become the chief judge and do not yet know Yan Ligu's past identity. It is not wrong to hand over the investigation to him. As for the rebellion of the newcomers, I have decided to send someone to infiltrate the world to investigate. If we can capture this person, we will bring him back for punishment. If not, we will make a decisive decision and execute him directly!"
As she spoke, Qingmu looked at everyone and asked, "Besides this, do any of the other judges have any new ideas?"
"Relying solely on the sanctioners is probably not appropriate. How about having the two presiding judges accompany us?"
"Two is too many, one is enough!"
“Then I’ll go myself!” Suruga suddenly said coldly.
Yan Ligu's eyelids twitched, and he squinted at Junhe, feeling uneasy. Just as he was getting worried, space suddenly distorted, and a crimson light flashed through it.
A girl dressed in red appeared in the conference center. She had a pair of wings on her back, her eyes were crimson with heart-shaped patterns, and her expression was extremely cold.
Upon seeing this person, everyone stood up simultaneously, knelt down in worship, and said, "Greetings, Lord Palace Master!"
"I just woke up and all you guys are arguing. It's so annoying!" The girl looked at everyone with a look of disgust.
As soon as she finished speaking, her eyes suddenly lit up. With a whoosh, the girl vanished from her spot and appeared beside Yan Ligu in the blink of an eye. She hugged him tightly and said excitedly, "Little Ligu! So you're here too! Remember to come to my palace later and report to me on the important events of these past years!"
The girl looked at Yan Ligu with a sly grin.
Yan Ligu suddenly smiled, revealing a fox-like smile. "Your Highness, this meeting concerns my dereliction of duty, so I'm afraid I cannot discuss important matters with Your Highness!"
Hearing Yan Ligu's words, Qingmu couldn't help but laugh, while the others couldn't help but curse inwardly:
Damn it, that cunning fox actually accused me first!
"What? What's going on?" The girl coldly swept her gaze over the crowd.
Yan Ligu recounted Gu Liyan's story in detail. After hearing Yan Ligu's words, the girl immediately became furious and cursed, "What the hell? Are you all idiots? That world is surrounded by spacetime turbulence. People from other times could probably go in and interfere. You don't dare to go in and check the information, but instead you blame my little Lili. You're shameless!"
Hearing the girl's merciless accusations, everyone immediately lowered their heads.
Seeing that the situation was under control, Yan Ligu smiled slightly and revealed information unknown to everyone: "Your Highness, I have some information to share, but I'm not sure if I should..."
"Little Lili, you tell me!"
"According to the recent connection between Mo Li's companion artifact, Mo Chen, and its master, Mo Li's physical body has been invaded and seems to have lost control!" Yan Ligu said with a solemn expression.
"What?!" Everyone was shocked to hear this.
Those who can plunder physical bodies must possess powerful divine souls. If someone can plunder the physical bodies of people in the Nine Springs Realm, that person must be a hegemon, or even a being who surpasses the Lord of the Nine Springs!
"Yan Ligu, how come you're only bringing this up now?!" Junhe rebuked angrily.
Yan Ligu suddenly laughed, "Oh, I thought I would be thrown into the endless abyss of reincarnation, but you guys scared me so much that I forgot for a moment!"
Upon hearing Yan Ligu's words, everyone's faces turned pale—damn it! This guy is definitely doing this on purpose!
The girl's expression immediately turned solemn. "To be able to plunder the physical body and soul of the Punisher of the Nine Springs Realm... then that means there is only one technique in this world, and only one person who can do it..."
Yan Ligu nodded. "That's right, it's the Ancient White Emperor!"
The girl's eyes turned cold, and she turned to the crowd, saying, "This time I'm going to see for myself! Yan Ligu, take that thing called Li's companion weapon with you, the three of us will go together!"
Yan Ligu nodded, "Yes!"
Suruga pointed at the rebellious presiding judge and asked, "Then, what about him?"
"Throw it into the endless abyss of reincarnation!" the girl said without turning her head.
Upon hearing this, the judge turned pale with fright. "No! Lord Palace Master! I was wrong! I'll never do it again! I only came here today in place of that person. My purpose was to bring down Lord Yan and that Mo Li! Lord Palace Master, I'll confess everything! Please don't send me to the Abyss of Endless Reincarnation!"
