Chapter 1491 Regrets of the Past, Gentleness of Today!

The news from Xie Danqiong’s interrogation left Mo Tianji and Chu Yang stunned.

“These are enforcers! Enforcers from the Execution Court, directly under the command of the Law Enforcer! This time, there are twenty-three of them in the northwest!” Mo Tianji exclaimed.

“Five sixth-rank Supremes, five seventh-rank Supremes, and ten eighth-rank Supremes! Three initial-rank ninth-rank Supremes!” Chu Yang added.

“Rumor has it that even the Law Enforcer himself has come!” Mo Tianji said calmly, his face dark.

This opening statement alone was enough to shock Chu Yang and the others.

“The Law Enforcer has issued orders, and the major clans are increasing their troops,” Mo Tianji continued.

“Moreover, the Law Enforcer and the Nine Great Clans have sent people to the Middle Third Heaven to investigate the news about the Nine Tribulations Sword! And they have already identified several people, including Mo Tianji, Gu Duxing, Ji Mo, Luo Kedi, and myself!” Xie Danqiong said. “At present, the identities of the five of us have been exposed!”

Mo Tianji remained calm and composed, his face expressionless. “What about the others?” he asked.

“They are not sure about the others, but they have identified Li Xiongtu,” Xie Danqiong replied with a mocking smile. “So they have put a lot of effort into besieging the Li clan this time.”

“Putting a lot of effort into it… is not enough. I want them to give it their all!” Mo Tianji coldly sneered.

“Dong Wushang and Rui Butong managed to escape suspicion because they arrived in the Upper Third Heaven early. However… these people have heard the Law Enforcer mention Dong Wushang’s name before… so it seems that he is also being watched,” Xie Danqiong said slowly. “The situation in the Middle Third Heaven is worrying. I don’t know…”

He looked at Mo Tianji with some concern.

Chu Yang furrowed his brows and asked, “Tianji, have we made arrangements for our relatives and friends in the Middle Third Heaven?”

Mo Tianji nodded. “It should be foolproof.”

“Oh?” Chu Yang raised an eyebrow.

Mo Tianji said in a calm tone, “I have found a large mountain range and established a manor. Everyone is there, with enough food, clothing, and supplies for a hundred years!”

Chu Yang frowned, “That’s not enough!”

Mo Tianji said, “Last time, you left behind several million purple crystals. I used ninety-nine thousand of them to create a maze formation with the power of the crystals in the middle Third Heaven, hiding the entire mountain range.”

“If it’s not someone proficient in formations…” Mo Tianji gritted his teeth and said, “Even a peak ninth-grade supreme, may not be able to break the formation!”

“What about inside?” Chu Yang asked bluntly. If someone inside was caught by someone waiting for them to jump out… the formation would be broken.

Mo Tianji sneered, “How could I forget about that? I will tell you all that people inside can come and go as they please, but in reality… no one can enter or leave the formation!”

“Unless it is two hundred years later, when the power of the formation weakens and becomes visible. Otherwise, no one can come out, no one can go in!” Mo Tianji smiled lightly, “I always prepare for the worst. Since our identities are in danger of being exposed, how could I not make sure we have no worries…”

Mo Tianji looked at Gu Duxing and Dong Wushang apologetically and said, “Brothers, this time, I lied to you. Because… if I didn’t lie to you, with the temperaments of our young lords, they would never have stayed in the mountains… please forgive me.”

Apology!

Mo Tianji actually apologized!

This fact surprised Chu Yang greatly. He understood better than anyone what kind of person Mo Tianji was. Mo Tianji always had a plan, and this also gave him almost poisonous confidence!

He would never bow down to anyone, even if he was really wrong, he would stubbornly hold on. He could allow himself to make up for his mistakes in secret, but he would never admit it in public!

He would never apologize in public!

This was Mo Tianji’s taboo! In his past life, the God Plate and Ghost Calculus once said, “I can be wrong, but I cannot bow down! I can make up for it, but I will never apologize! I can die, but I will never bend!”

This was Mo Tianji!

Mo Tianji was now actually apologizing to someone! Although it was an apology to his own brother, Chu Yang still felt greatly surprised! He could sense that the current Mo Tianji was much more mature and powerful in terms of character than in his past life.

A commander who regarded all living beings as insignificant as grass, even if they were victorious in countless battles, would eventually be defeated by themselves. But a commander who had insight into the world and conformed to people’s hearts could thrive indefinitely. Even if they experienced defeats, they would become increasingly steady.

Gu Duxing and the others were all in a state of great surprise. When they heard that the law enforcers had confirmed their identities, they immediately began to worry about their families and the possibility of their families being arrested if they left. Now, upon hearing Mo Tianji’s words, they suddenly felt relieved. They were so grateful that they didn’t care about the small deception, especially since it was done with good intentions.

Xie Danqiong wanted to continue reporting, but Mo Tianji stopped him and said, “Let me say a few words first. Since the law enforcers have already confirmed our identities, it means that the day of direct confrontation is not far away. However, our strength is not yet sufficient… so in the future, you all need to have your own plans and preparations.”

“What kind of plans and preparations?” Ji Mo asked.

“For example… how to conceal your identity, how not to arouse suspicion, how not to burden your brothers, and how to quickly improve your strength!” Mo Tianji said each word clearly.

Everyone fell into contemplation.

“Anything else?” Chu Yang looked at Xie Danqiong.

Mo Tianji was lost in thought, drawing something with the long sword in his hand on the snowy ground. It seemed to be a situation map, and he muttered to himself as he drew. However, the drawing was extremely abstract, and no one could understand it.

“Also… regarding the matter of the Medicine Valley, the law enforcers and the members of the Execution Department carried out the extermination of the valley. The Law Enforcer went in to search for something, and even though he didn’t show any emotion when he came out, he must have found what he was looking for,” Mo Tianji said.

Chu Yang shuddered all over, his eyes filled with a sharp light. “It was the Law Enforcer, after all!”

Mo Tianji suddenly looked up and asked, “What did Law Enforcer find?”

Chu Yang snorted coldly and said, “This part doesn’t need to be considered at all. He must have found the Sky-Replenishing Jade! Every time during the Great Medicinal Meeting, there will be a portion of Sky-Replenishing Jade left in the Medicine Valley! Law Enforcer must have set his sights on that…”

Mo Tianji nodded in agreement.

He didn’t understand the use of Sky-Replenishing Jade, but he didn’t want to ask Chu Yang about it at this moment.

Chu Yang was full of doubts in his heart: Although the use of Sky-Replenishing Jade was amazing, it could only be used on people with severe soul injuries. Why would Law Enforcer be willing to destroy the entire Medicine Valley just to snatch it away? Could it be that there were other uses for the Sky-Replenishing Jade?

“After the incident in the Medicine Valley, they blamed you for being a demon from outside the domain and caused trouble for you!” Xie Danqiong was indignant, “I never thought that Law Enforcer, the most powerful and influential person in the Nine Heavens, would be such a treacherous villain!”

Gu Duxing angrily said, “How can such a person be qualified to be the Law Enforcer? How can he lead the heroes of the world? He must be executed!”

Chu Yang had long guessed about this matter, and he didn’t care. It was actually because of Gu Duxing’s words that he laughed. To execute him…haha, Gu Duxing really had a taste for being impartial and unyielding…

“However, although they don’t know the use of that mysterious thing that Law Enforcer snatched, they have seen the benefits of it with their own eyes!” Xie Danqiong’s face was now slightly flushed, indicating that the severe vomiting just now had an effect on him. He slowly said, “At that time, Law Enforcer was seriously injured…he relied on the vitality and continuous killing of others from the Law Enforcement Hall to sustain his vitality, but after obtaining that thing, his body miraculously recovered and his cultivation became even more refined. During this period of time, he made remarkable progress…becoming more and more unfathomable!”

After Xie Danqiong finished speaking, he saw that Chu Yang’s eyes suddenly became deep, and he quickly stopped talking, afraid of disturbing Chu Yang’s current thoughts.

Chu Yang frowned and pondered for a while before saying, “What else?”

“There is also…the existence of the Elder Hall!” Xie Danqiong said, “Among the Law Enforcers, there is a most mysterious Elder Hall…inside, there are all peerless experts.”

He paused and said, “The three defeats mentioned by Gu Yigu should be in the hands of the people from the Elder Hall.”

Chu Yang nodded slowly. “Hmm.”

“Also, there seems to be another person around Law Enforcer, but no one has seen them. They just have a feeling… because Law Enforcer didn’t have any abnormalities before, but now, sometimes there is a faint black aura rising from him, and this black aura makes people very uneasy.”

As this sentence was spoken, both Chu Yang and Mo Tianji’s faces changed.

“Heavenly Demon!”

Both of them silently exclaimed in their hearts!

Xie Danqiong was startled by the change in their faces.

Chu Yang took a deep breath. “This matter… is too important. Be careful not to spread it.” Then he turned to Xie Danqiong and said, “Please continue.”

Xie Danqiong continued, “Next, it is related to the situation in the northwest, including the recent action to obstruct Xiao Zhongyang and Shi Qishu. They don’t even know why they did it; they only know that it was to assist Diwu Qingrou in establishing the power of the Diwu family. For this goal, they can pay any price and adopt any means!”

Chu Yang and Mo Tianji exchanged a glance, both seeing a complex expression in each other’s eyes.

Mo Tianji coughed softly and said, “We all know that Law Enforcer’s name is Dongfang Badao. Later, the boss told me that he was one of the Nine Tribulations a long time ago, named Lou Wenlong. And then… after the boss confirmed it, he once said… the Law Enforcer’s name… is Diwu Chuangshang?”

He paused for a moment, pondered for a while, and then said, “This is not impossible, is it? He wants to rebuild the Diwu family in tens of thousands of years?”

“This is not impossible.” Chu Yang also smiled.

Mo Tianji smiled lightly and said, “The despair of the past, the gentleness of today; two generations of strategists, competing against fate.”
