CHAPTER 1536: CHAPTER 1535: THE HEAVENLY COURT TAKES ACTION

Under the moonlit night, the Northern Suburb of the Capital City.

Su Yang and Black Widow were completely besieged, with experts dispatched by the Four Great Sects, along with those from the Jade-Faced Judge’s side, totaling over two hundred experts, closing in on Su Yang and Black Widow.

The outcome of this battle was already very clear. Although Black Widow was powerful, she was thoroughly surrounded and couldn’t even rescue Su Yang.

As for Su Yang, under the protection of the Celestial War Armor, he could barely hold on. However, under the full-scale assault of those people, the brilliance of the Celestial War Armor was gradually dimming. It was only a matter of time before he couldn’t sustain it.

On the other side, at Qinghe Academy, Zhao Hu Zi contacted people at Qinghe Academy, and the Dean hurriedly gathered people to come and help.

But before they could leave Qinghe Academy, a group of people descended from the sky, a conspicuous group of men in golden armor.

Seeing these people, the Dean was taken aback and asked in surprise, "Law Enforcers, what are you doing here?"

"We’re going to negotiate with the Ten Great Sects tomorrow, and we need to arrange matters in advance!" The lead golden-armored man said, "We ask Qinghe Academy to assist us!"

The Dean furrowed his brows; these people had come at a very timely moment. Even a fool could guess that these people were clearly here to prevent him from helping Su Yang.

Of course, the Dean never imagined that the Heavenly Court had already allied with the Medicine Sect and others. Those Four Great Sects had actually pledged allegiance to the Heavenly Court.

In the Dean’s view, these people simply didn’t want him to save Su Yang. After all, the Heavenly Court was still very wary of Su Zhan’s lineage.

"I have some personal matters to attend to tonight, will assisting you afterward be alright?" the Dean inquired.

"No!" The golden-armored man replied simply, "The Lord of the Heavenly Court is going to take part in the negotiations personally; the matter is very important and cannot be delayed. So, we ask Qinghe Academy to drop whatever it is doing and assist us fully!"

"Whether it’s important or not is your concern; what does it have to do with us?" the Head Instructor retorted angrily. "If you want to handle it, go ahead. We don’t have time to waste here!"

Since discovering Su Yang was Su Zhan’s son, the Head Instructor’s attitude towards Su Yang had changed significantly. In fact, the Head Instructor wasn’t a bad person; he just saw past grievances too clearly. Previously, he thought Su An had betrayed Su Zhan, which was why he was displeased with Su Yang. Now he is the one who most wants to protect Su Yang!

The golden-armored man remained silent but gestured, and his group immediately dispersed to surround Qinghe Academy. The meaning was clear: if Qinghe Academy’s people were to leave, they would definitely intervene.

Witnessing this, the Dean furrowed his brows deeply. In a direct confrontation, Qinghe Academy might not fear these Law Enforcers. The problem is, with so many Law Enforcers around Qinghe Academy, it’s unknown how long it will take to settle the conflict. Meanwhile, how long can Su Yang hold out?

Gesturing to the people nearby to remain calm, the Dean retreated slightly, sending messages to Martial God Altar, Thousand Snow Palace, Innate Sect, and other sects, asking them to assist Su Yang.

Martial God Altar and Thousand Snow Palace were the first to receive the messages. Upon receiving them, they quickly prepared to leave and help Su Yang. However, just as they were stepping out of their territory, they were intercepted by the Law Enforcers.

On receiving this news, the Dean’s brows furrowed. He realized that the Law Enforcers were truly intending for Su Yang to perish there, having already made arrangements to block anyone who might help Su Yang.

He quickly contacted other sects, but the responses varied. Some sects were also stopped by the Law Enforcers, while others outright refused to intervene, claiming it was Su Yang’s personal matter, unrelated to the Ten Great Sects, and they wouldn’t involve themselves!

In the end, the Dean contacted all the sects, but the result was the same. Those Four Great Sects were now combined forces against Su Yang, while other willing sects to aid Su Yang were blocked by the Law Enforcers. The unwilling sects were simply watching the drama unfold.

Having contacted every sect, the Dean was completely panicked. Tonight’s situation, with the Heavenly Court personally intervening to stop anyone who could help Su Yang, clearly aiming to kill Su Yang!

He looked at the lead golden-armored man and said solemnly, "I don’t care what negotiations you are doing, but tonight Su Yang must survive. Otherwise, you won’t get any benefits from this negotiation!"

The golden-armored man’s expression remained indifferent, seemingly oblivious to the Dean’s words, continuing to guard the area, preventing Qinghe Academy’s people from leaving.

"Move out of the way, did you hear me?" the Head Instructor shouted loudly.

The golden-armored man still didn’t respond, blocking the path.

"We can’t wait any longer!" the Head Instructor said to the Dean, "Su Yang and the others won’t hold out much longer! Those Four Great Sects have sent almost all their experts below the Terrestrial Immortal level, plus people from the Jade-Faced Judge’s side. Tonight’s battle, Su Yang and the others are in grave danger!"

The Dean furrowed his brows, contemplating for a moment, then suddenly said firmly, "Everyone, please move aside. Otherwise, don’t blame us for being impolite!"

The golden-armored man’s expression remained indifferent, not responding to the Dean, but raised the longsword in his hand.

With this gesture, the stance was clear. If Qinghe Academy’s people wanted to leave, they must defeat them first.

The Dean took a deep breath and announced resolutely, "Qinghe Academy doesn’t want conflict with the Heavenly Court, but if the Heavenly Court insists on such despicable actions, we can only go all out. Everyone, I say again, move!"

Still, no one moved aside, and the Dean stopped talking. He raised his hand and struck out with a palm.

The golden-armored man split the attack with his sword, quickly rushing forward to battle the Dean.

At the same time, the other Law Enforcers swiftly engaged with Qinghe Academy’s people, plunging the scene into chaos.

Similar chaos erupted at Martial God Altar and Thousand Snow Palace. These Law Enforcers were there blocking the people from leaving to aid Su Yang; both sides were locked in stalemate. The Law Enforcers were definitive in their approach; they only wanted to prevent these people from helping Su Yang without intent on going all out, hence the continuous struggle, difficult to resolve.

At Beishan, Su Yang and Black Widow were both injured. At this point, considering their fortitude, they struggled to hold out for over an hour under such circumstances.

But now, both of their powers were greatly depleted, and they were completely at a disadvantage.
