Sure enough, Gong Siyi spoke up, "Alliance Master Jian, distinguished Taoist Sect Masters and elders. Over these years, while we may not have accomplished great deeds, our Gods Hall has surely labored in the World of Gods.

Back then, to protect the World's Barrier from being destroyed by lowly rabble, our Gods Hall fought fiercely, losing nine-tenths of those named Li Yan and Wuque Saints.

To the extent that now even a protector from the Trading Building dares to bully our Gods Hall, and our Yishuang Territory Lord, Ju Chen, was ambushed and publicly slain by a protector from the Gods Trading Building in Tao City.

Our Gods Hall has been waiting for the Gods Trading Building to give us an explanation, but they act as if this incident never happened, showing no remorse or offering any explanation.

Today is an important day for the World of Gods; I shouldn't have mentioned this matter.

But our Gods Hall's Lord was slain in the street; even if we swallow this grievance, our Hall Master will not let us off lightly.

If this becomes a norm, wouldn't the World of Gods enter an era of chaos? How can we pursue the Great Dao in such a stable environment?

I urge Alliance Master Jian and everyone present to give our Gods Hall an explanation, return justice to the World of Gods, and provide all cultivators in the World of Gods a stable environment to seek the Great Dao."

Gong Siyi's words clearly reminded Jian Zhen that their hall master, Master of the Universe, Lou Poyi, was about to arrive.

This is also a threat; if you don't handle the Gods Trading Building, then our God's Hall Master will deal with you.

Jian Zhen frowned slightly.

Frankly, he wasn't fond of Gong Siyi's manner of speaking.

Does being the Master of the Universe at the seventh step of the Great Dao make him extraordinary?

Jian Zhen is also at the seventh step of the Great Dao, also a Master of the Universe.

As for your Gods Hall almost being wiped out, was that truly to protect the World of Gods?

Your Gods Hall members coveted their Seven Realm Stone and merely happened to run into hard characters.

Yet, Lou Poyi's reputation still needs consideration; this matter involves the Gods Trading Building and is indeed difficult to resolve.

The Gods Trading Building's Chairman, Ji Sixin, though her cultivation isn't impressive, this woman has wide connections and friends everywhere, including Jian Zhen, who has some relations with her.

In the World of Gods, Zhu Xunjiang, the elusive seventh step Saint Universe Master, has a close friendship with Ji Sixin.

"Chairman Ji, do you have anything to say?" Jian Zhen looked at Ji Sixin.

Ji Sixin felt her scalp tingle.

What was bound to happen finally happened, what could she say now?

The event occurred rapidly and suddenly, and she has no Imaging Crystal Ball.

Though she spent the past two years asking for an Imaging Crystal Ball of the situation, not one person claimed to have recorded it.

Ji Sixin is convinced someone recorded the situation, but since it involves the Gods Hall, unless seeking death, who would want to present such evidence?

This is purely stirring trouble.

"Alliance Master Jian, indeed Lord Ju fell in Tao City, according to our Trading Building's investigation, he conflicted with protector Qi Sha.

The precise reason appears to be that Lord Ju Chen acted first, with Qi Sha retaliating in self-defense, resulting in an irreparable conclusion..."

Ji Sixin worked hard to keep her tone calm.

She couldn't just expel Qi Sha now.

Even if she did, Ju Chen's death would still rest on the Gods Trading Building's shoulders; given this, it would be better to assert that Qi Sha is the Gods Trading Building's Holy Guardian.

Upon hearing Ji Sixin's words, Gong Siyi immediately grew furious, "Chairman Ji, as a Business Building Lord, you hold some status in the World of Gods.

What kind of words are these? Qi Sha was clearly aggressive and succeeded by ambush. Our Gods Hall Lord Ju Chen was always honest and disliked conflict, how could he have acted first?

Moreover, unless tricked, would our Gods Hall's Lord Ju Chen, a sixth step of the Great Dao, be defeated by Qi Sha?

Do you believe your claim that he was accidentally killed by Qi Sha?"

Ji Sixin remained silently speechless.

This was indeed the crux of the issue.

Since everyone knows, including herself.

Qi Sha couldn't possibly be a match for Ju Chen.

Yet Ju Chen was the one slain.

Without an Imaging Crystal Ball and witnesses, this leaves the Gods Trading Building at fault.

Even if she brought in the seventh step Master of the Universe, the situation remains unchanged.

The key is she still hasn't found Qi Sha, the most critical person.

Jian Zhen realized that the Gods Trading Building lacks validity in this affair due to the absence of tangible evidence.

And Gods Hall's Lord Ju Chen was indeed slain in front of the Gods Trading Building's auction entrance.

Ju Chen was at the sixth step of the Great Dao, commonly speaking, without ambush, killing one at the sixth step is challenging.

Tao City, while not belonging to the Gods Trading Building.

The Gods Trading Building holds unrivaled stature in Tao City; Ju Chen was killed at the auction's entrance, even shattering its Protecting Array.

From every angle, this matter appears as the Gods Trading Building ambushing Ju Chen, followed by a group siege leading to Ju Chen's demise.

Unless Ji Sixin produces crucial evidence.

"Chairman Ji, do you have witness or material evidence to prove the Gods Trading Building unrelated to this matter?" Jian Zhen simply asked out of duty.

The obliteration of the Gods Trading Building doesn't affect him.

Once this matter concludes, swiftly seeking fortune in the Chaos Zone is the sensible course.

Right at this moment, Dao Alliance's Sect Master Mi Yongdi abruptly stood up, speaking in an extremely agitated tone:

"Alliance Master Jian, just now, Qi Sha from the Gods Trading Building publicly slew our Dao Alliance elder Gu Chu in Gods Plaza.

"This person's arrogance has reached its peak; he dared to kill a Taoist Sect elder at the Gods Plaza. Please, Alliance Hierarch, deliver justice for the Great Chong Holy Dao."

If the Gods Hall didn't stand out against the Trading Building of the Gods, even with ten thousand guts, Mi Yongdi of the Great Chong Holy Dao wouldn't dare to turn against the Trading Building of the Gods at this moment.

It is now evident that the Trading Building of the Gods is on the verge of collapse.

At this time, Qi Sha bullied the Great Chong Holy Dao. If he couldn't seize the opportunity to curry favor with the Gods Hall, he was truly foolish.

Everyone was shocked.

Although Qi Sha had the title of Killing God, he actually chose whom to kill and where.

Because this guy knew very well who could be killed and who couldn't.

The Gods Plaza was clearly not a suitable place for killing.

No one expected Qi Sha to actually slaughter in the Gods Plaza.

Ji Sixin was taken aback; her first reaction was not anger and anxiety, but delight.

With things having reached this point, what was there to be anxious and angry about?

As long as Qi Sha was found, with him taking the lead, the best outcome for the Trading Building of the Gods might be to push Qi Sha out as a scapegoat and preserve themselves.

"Go, bring Qi Sha..."

Jian Zhen was about to say to bring Qi Sha when Ji Sixin stood up, saluted first, and then said:

"Alliance Hierarch, we have yet to conclude the right and wrong of this matter. Qi Sha is a protector of the Trading Building of the Gods. How about this, I'll have someone bring him in."

She would never let Jian Zhen forcibly bring Qi Sha in; that would indeed lessen their dignity if there were no mistake.

Jian Zhen knew that saving face in this regard was necessary.

Just at this moment, a figure stepped directly into the grand hall.

The mighty aura instantly filled the entire space of the Council Hall. Jian Zhen's heart sank, as he knew who had arrived—it was Lou Poyi, the Hall Master of the Gods Hall and a Master of the Universe.

Both were of the Master of the Universe level, but judging from Lou Poyi's aura, Jian Zhen felt he was inferior to Lou Poyi.

"What's the point of calling a slaughtering maniac, just capture him directly." Even before Lou Poyi descended, his icy voice had already been heard.

Jian Zhen's expression looked quite unpleasant.

Although this matter had nothing to do with his Holy Dao Alliance, Lou Poyi was too outrageous, not showing him any respect.

Even if such words were to be said, it should have been Jian Zhen saying it, not Lou Poyi.

If Lou Poyi showed him respect, he would have communicated it to him via sound transmission.

Jian Zhen also understood that opposing Lou Poyi now was definitely not a good idea.

Once done, that would mean he chose to help Ji Sixin.

He had no interest relationship with the Trading Building of the Gods, so why offend Lou Poyi to help them?

Ji Sixin sensed dismay in her heart; she had invited Zhu Xunjiang.

But since she couldn't find Zhu Xunjiang either, she could only message him for the help of this Master of the Universe.

Zhu Xunjiang coming was a faint possibility; even if he did, it probably wouldn't be so timely.

"Si Xin, did you think I wouldn't come so conveniently? Haha..."

With a loud laugh resonating, a refined and handsome young man entered the grand hall.

He and Lou Poyi arrived almost simultaneously.

Ji Sixin was overjoyed; who else could it be if not Zhu Xunjiang?

Everyone stood up to greet him.

Because behind Lou Poyi and Zhu Xunjiang, three more men and women entered.

All six were Masters of the Universe, representing the top echelon of the World of Gods present here.

Jian Zhen also burst into laughter: "Fellow Daoists, you have arrived at just the right time. Please have a seat."

He conveniently ignored Lou Poyi's words.

Everyone knew Zhu Xunjiang was a friend of Ji Sixin.

If Lou Poyi still dared to bully Ji Sixin, Zhu Xunjiang would definitely stand up against him.

Sure enough, after Zhu Xunjiang and others entered, Lou Poyi no longer mentioned capturing Qi Sha.

...

After Ding Huan slew Gu Chu, he knew that things had just begun.

If he wanted to enter the Chaos Zone quietly, he had to confront face-to-face with the Master of the Universe from the Gods Hall.

Now Ding Huan was eagerly anticipating whether he could stand up to the Master of the Universe.

"Yuan Fei, I've been waiting for you for a while." A somewhat gentle voice sounded beside Ding Huan.

Ding Huan scanned with his Divine Will, seeing a female cultivator with an exceptional figure standing not far from him while a handsome man approached her from a distance.

Not long ago, Geng Yuan told him that his future Dao companion was named Xiang Yuanfei. Could this Yuan Fei be Geng Yuan's Dao companion?

Ding Huan's Divine Will immediately focused on the woman, and he sensed something different about her.

The woman's Dao Rhythm carried a Law that Ding Huan had never encountered before, clearly indicating she possessed a special Dao Body.

Geng Yuan himself had a Chaos Dao Body, which made Ding Huan all the more certain that this woman was Geng Yuan's future Dao companion, as mentioned.

(Good night, fellow Daoist!)
