"By the way, send a message to Yuan Tuo, the Branch Master, in my name, inviting him to mobilize his people and meet with me in Gu Hua City." After pondering for a moment, Qi Xiong issued another command.
"Yes!" Several disciples spoke cautiously and then bowed as they retreated.
That night, Qi Xiong led many strong practitioners from the Law Enforcement Hall's branches to make a powerful strike, marching towards Gu Hua City with a fierce aura. At the same time, news of the Xuanyuan Empire disciples slaying the Law Enforcement Hall's prodigies spread rapidly throughout the Martial Domain like a gust of wind.
It was a time of trouble; any slight movement would attract the attention of various major forces. Not to mention, the news of Xuanyuan Empire disciples killing the Law Enforcement Hall's prodigies immediately drew the attention of many forces.
"Is the Xuanyuan Empire going to have another battle with the Piao Miao Palace?"
"Just as things quieted down a bit, the Xuanyuan Empire is actively provoking trouble?"
"What calm? During this time, the Law Enforcement Hall has been courting major imperial forces throughout the Martial Domain. I see their intentions are not pure."
"Even if the Law Enforcement Hall is courting various forces, it doesn't mean the Xuanyuan Empire's people can recklessly kill the Law Enforcement Hall's disciples."
"But I heard it was the Law Enforcement Hall's people who stirred up trouble first, and the Xuanyuan Empire's disciples were forced to take action?"
"Regardless of who stirred up trouble first, the Law Enforcement Hall's disciples were killed. Would the Piao Miao Palace let it go so easily?"
Discussions arose everywhere, drawing attention to the matter. Although it was merely a conflict between two Martial Emperors, it involved the Xuanyuan Empire and the Law Enforcement Hall, attracting many eyes.
As expected, the next day, news emerged that two branches of the Law Enforcement Hall near Gu Hua City had mobilized, with hundreds of strong practitioners heading to Gu Hua City.
Once this news spread, it caused an uproar among the major forces. With both branches mobilizing, this was no small action; did they really need to mobilize so many for the capture of a Xuanyuan Empire disciple?
Or did the Law Enforcement Hall have ulterior motives?
In no time, all the major forces turned their attention to the matter, but none dared to send experts to intervene. At that moment, the Law Enforcement Hall was enraged; who would dare take the risk to send people, knowing they might provoke the Law Enforcement Hall and find themselves in trouble?
Thus, all major forces merely observed from afar. Conversely, the three major forces in Gu Hua City felt quite anxious. After all, it was a disciple who had died in their Gu Hua City, and the Law Enforcement Hall's mobilization left them feeling uncertain!
In a state of panic, the three major forces in Gu Hua City went mad these past two days, searching for Qin Chen's whereabouts, eager to dig him out from the ground. However, no matter how they searched, the culprit seemed to have vanished without a trace.
In contrast to the fear of Gu Hua City, one force was exceedingly excited.
"Hahaha, let's see how the Law Enforcement Hall acts arrogantly in the future. Being the same level of prodigy, they were killed by our Xuanyuan Empire's disciple. The Law Enforcement Hall is nothing much."
"Hmph, last time, the Xuanyuan Emperor was only severely injured due to an ambush by Deputy Branch Master Mu Xun, forcing him to retreat. Otherwise, the Piao Miao Palace might have already fallen to the Emperor."
"This is truly a breath of fresh air."
"By the way, do you know which family in the Xuanyuan Empire the disciple who killed Ba Leng belongs to? I'd very much like to meet this hero."
Among the people of the Xuanyuan Empire, voices buzzed, and many were excited, feeling an unprecedented sense of relief. The joint battle of various forces and the Xuanyuan Emperor's severe injury made the Xuanyuan Empire's reputation plummet on the continent.
