Myriad Peaks were true to its name as a large mountain range located in Moneyfall.
Numerous experts were here today with no lack of big shots and ancestors. Coiling Dragon, Sword Grave, and Heavenstart virtually went all out with their full fighting force.
The untethered was in charge of this event. Though she didnât send out a direct order to demand the appearance of all systems, the majority still came.
Whether it be to support Mu Shaochen, watching the fun, or some other motives; everyone still participated.
This event might have been rushed but the smart ones knew that it would affect the current political climate of Myriad. If Mu Shaochen were to seize the upper hand, he would be in charge of Myriad for a long time to come.
With a powerful alliance including the martial court and various systems, he would be able to do whatever he wanted, toppling the other great powers.
Because of this, the wiser of the crowd could sense the foreboding atmosphere. It wasnât only a trial on Li Qiye or the agreement with Insane Court.
The place was packed with people from all over the world. Even Ascenders that normally didnât come out made an exception. All of this made the atmosphere even more somber.
The ancestors from Coiling Dragon were ready to kill. Their bloodthirst engulfed the area.
Yang Radiance was responsible for maintaining orders and it didnât hold back from showing its power, allowing it to take care of all the troubles. Because of the untetheredâs presence, most ancestors played nice instead of showboating.
Yang Radiance Buddha and other ancestors from her sect were here as well. This was quite a powerful group.
On the other side were ancestors of Coiling Dragon and martial court. They took up the central peaks while other experts stay in the nearby vicinity.
This reflected the current situation of Myriad. The top systems were still at the center, acting as the pillars.
âAre they really trying to judge Li Qiye?â One junior asked.
âItâs not that simple.â His senior shook his head: âIt will determine the direction and prosperity of Myriad for years to come.â
âWhat do you mean? Isnât it just a trial.â The youth lacked the insight to read the situation.
âYouâll find out later.â The senior continued watching the gathering of heroes with a serious expression.
More and more systems came but the accused was nowhere to be found.
âUntethered, if this Li Qiye doesnât appear, how are we going to carry out the trial?â An ancestor from Sword Grave took the initiative to trouble the untethered.
âRight, that crafty devil wonât show up when so many of us are here, maybe heâll even hide in the shadows and come up with schemes to assassinate us.â Another one from Heavenstart unhappily said.
âIâm sure Li Qiye will come.â The untethered was unmoved: âHeâs not one to run from trouble.â
âUntethered, weâve been too merciful against him!â One more from Coiling Dragon jumped in: âItâs a fact that he had killed thousands using evil techniques. We all should be trying to eliminate him right now since itâs our responsibility to uphold justice, am I wrong here?â
âNo, youâre right. Everyone should be trying to kill that monster!â This garnered support from many systems.
âRules are rules, since we have signed an agreement, we will follow it.â She replied: âIf you do not recognize your own agreement, then feel free to act independently. Otherwise, he deserves a chance to defend himself.â
People scowled after hearing this but none expressively objected. After all, they did sign the agreement back then. To refute this was akin to throwing away their systemâs reputation and honor.
âUntethered, weâre just saying if. If this guy doesnât come, then what do we do? It would be a waste of time, a complete joke.â An ancestor from Vermillion who has been sitting there quietly finally spoke.
The stake became higher. Whatever happened next could shake the status of Yang Radiance in Myriad. If thatâs the case, then Vermillion was next in line.
This sect was already strong enough, not to mention its relationship with Mu Shaochen!
People werenât stupid and could see the martial courtâs ambition. Since many assumed Li Qiye wasnât going to show up, they were ready to see the martial court attacking Yang Radiance for this ineffective event.
Longevity Sage leisurely added: âDonât you worry, our system guarantees that he will show up. Give up on thinking otherwise.â
âHaha, Sage, excuse me for being frank, but your system is clearly conspiring with him, so you are not qualified to act as guarantors.â The ancestor from Coiling Dragon spoke again.
The sage looked straight at this ancestor and smiled: âWeâre not qualified? At least we arenât parasitic thieves like your Praymoon Sect. Iâll be frank too, youâre not qualified to speak before my Longevity Valley.â
This verbal slap struck Coiling Dragon System quite hard. Everyone knew about this story but none wanted to bring it up lest they wanted a feud.
Now, the sage didnât hold back at all. This wasnât the old style of Longevity Valley.
âYou!â This ancestor was furious and glared at her: âYou think you can say whatever you want?!â
âWhy not? Iâm not afraid of your system.â The sage sneered.
âSage, you are out of line.â An ancestor from Heavenstart interjected: âEven if Li Qiye is your disciple, acting as his guarantor wonât be that simpleâ¦â
The sage interrupted him: âIt is that simple. Just a guy with the last name Wu, no problem, we can invite a True Emperor from Immortal Lineage to come down if everyone wants to go all out! Letâs stop being hypocrites that hide behind the veil of justice.â
