Chapter 1991: Chapter 1936-1937: Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch Delivers Judgment (Part 2)

Now he and the Jade Emperor were fighting a fierce battle in the Chaos Void, yet no Taoist Monarch stepped forward to mediate and offer a compromise, which highlighted the attitude of the various Taoist Monarchs.

It should be known that even during conflicts between the Fire Virtue Star Lord and the Great Emperor Ziwei over significant interests, some Taoist Monarchs would act as intermediaries, trying to ease tensions and temporarily hold the hand.

Whether it was hypocritical or sincere, at least someone would step out for appearances and play the peacemaker.

However, the Witch God Sect Leader emerging at this moment clearly showed that the various Taoist Monarchs were indifferent, adopting a detached stance, seemingly expressing a neutral position.

Yet, it’s important to note that originally, the Jade Emperor’s attempt to truly take control of the Heavenly Court was what dissatisfied the veteran Taoist Monarchs and the vested interests. The Witch God Sect Leader was essentially on their side.

Now these Taoist Monarchs express a neutral attitude, suggesting an implicit support for the Jade Emperor, at least showing a leaning towards the Jade Emperor on this matter.

This indicates that everyone has decisively responded to the Witch God Sect Leader’s probing, unwilling to see the current situation become chaotic; at least the divine position rotation must adhere to rules.

“Send a message to the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch; now is the time for him to make an appearance.” Pei Xuanjing pondered for a moment and advised Pang Hong.

The Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch oversees the Heavenly Court Gods, and now Ju Mang Ancestor Witch has unilaterally refined the Wood Virtue Star Lord’s divine position, naturally violating the Heavenly Rules, obligating the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch to act.

“Hmm, yes!” Pang Hong was momentarily stunned but then responded with agreement, a flash of unexpected surprise also in his eyes.

Even though he had expressed dissatisfaction earlier, he hadn’t expected his master to declare a stance at this moment.

For his master had his own plans, with considerable ties to the Witch Deity Teaching, and moreover, the Ju Mang Ancestor Witch refining the Wood Virtue Star Lord’s divine position now had a good relationship with the master in the past; it wouldn’t have been a problem for the master to turn a blind eye here.

Now the master only sent a message for the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch to take action, but Pang Hong believed that once the news spread, all parties would immediately perceive it as a directive from the master and speculate it as representing the master’s will.

“Ancestral Master, is it somewhat too early to declare a stance at this moment?” Wan Fayi raised his query.

He wasn’t questioning Pei Xuanjing’s approach, but he felt somewhat puzzled and bewildered within.

Although he had been long imbued with training and cultivation, possessing exceptional overarching vision and strategic perspective among peers, in face of the current contest within the celestial landscape, he seemed noteasier, needing further honing indeed.

Pei Xuanjing smiled without speaking, and at the side Yu Zhenzi intervened to resolve his confusion, saying: “Precisely because it’s at this moment that we need to declare our stance, letting everyone know this affair isn’t instigated by us from behind the scenes.”

Seeing Wan Fayi’s contemplative expression, Yu Zhenzi seriously stated: “The Witch God Sect Leader’s move is a test of the Heavenly Court’s authority, also harming numerous divine interests, inevitably incurring their discontent and resentment. And to many gods, our Shenxiao Sect and the Witch Deity Teaching’s collaboration isn’t few; we know this is orchestrated by the Witch Deity Teaching themselves, but others don’t. Hence, at this time, swiftly declaring a stance not to be dragged down by the Witch Deity Teaching.”

Indeed, the roles now held by the celestial are stable, yet this rests on the joint support from numerous Taoist Monarchs; if support from numerous Taoist monarchs were lost, the Heavenly Court would also be precarious at any moment.

Among these numerous Taoist Monarchs, Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing is one of the founders of the Heavenly Court, naturally also one of its greatest supporters. As long as he hasn’t declared a stance, then the Heavenly Court naturally won’t experience major upheavals, and numerous gods would be confident.

However similarly, some collaboration between the Witch Deity Teaching and Longevity Taoist Monarch is an open secret for numerous powers, if at this moment facing Witch God Sect Leader’s provocation and test, Pei Xuanjing or Shenxiao Sect hasn’t an attitude, demonstrating silence, many powers might err in judgement, perceiving it as tacit endorsement.

Whether it is Pei Xuanjing as the preeminent Taoist Monarch or today’s Shenxiao Sect, they represent not just themselves but can influence the attitudes of numerous powers and forces.

Once mistakenly believed that Pei Xuanjing and Shenxiao Sect wish to destroy the Heavenly Court’s reputation, tacitly permitting Witch Deity Teaching’s violation, then a real large problem arises.

Divine positions concerning the life and death of every deity are protected by Heavenly Court regulations, deterring ambitious individuals from various sides; if Pei Xuanjing and Shenxiao Sect allow this without opposition, they will instantly stand against these divine figures.

Even for Pei Xuanjing and Shenxiao Sect themselves, they wouldn’t wish to unwarranted face the aversion and rejection from such a powerful strength.

Regardless if Pei Xuanjing or Shenxiao Sect are unafraid of such threats, but why should they bear the blame for Witch Deity Teaching and carry this undeserved accusation?

“Is it a decisive cut?” Wan Fayi suddenly understood.

As communication concluded, Pang Hong smiled and supplemented: “And likewise showcases one’s aura, as a top immortal sect, you must possess this daring to be the first.

Perhaps other forces, when making some decisions, need to consider external impacts, avoiding becoming the target of criticism or the center of storms.

Yet, regarding Shenxiao Sect, since Pei Xuanjing’s rise, he and the entirety of Shenxiao Sect have always been a focal point for all sides, attracting attention from various powers, never daring a moment’s neglect.

During these ten thousand years, even Shenxiao Sect deliberately laid low, yet to no avail, for the position occupied by Shenxiao Sect is already a focal point.

Furthermore, if truly wishing to be a leader, a big player, one must possess the courage to stand up, instilling sufficient confidence in your followers and dependents that they have unyielding resolve to walk by your side.

If occupying this position and fearing to stand openly at crucial moments, unable to decide, displaying hesitation, then indeed,you can’t ensure followers with strong faith.

When indecisive it’s worse to be chaotic. Sometimes even filled with risk and uncertainty, making one incorrect decision is far better than making none.

Pang Hong hoped Wan Fayi understood this, for if he truly ascended to the position of sect leader, it represented not just himself but the entire Shenxiao Sect, sometimes embodying Longevity Taoist Monarch Pei Xuanjing’s will.

If at critical moments intimidate, fearing decision, underestimated by others, then the prestige of Shenxiao Sect will indeed dissipate.

“Unauthorised Refinement of Divine Position, deserving execution!”

The voice of the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch resounded through the heavens and earth, the God-beating Whip falling directly towards the Ju Mang Ancestor Witch’s location.

Without any hesitating, as soon as he genuinely appeared he decisively took action.

The Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch secures his position due to his uprightness and impartiality, upholding justice; this aspect, even some gods punished by him, have no real objection.

In truth, regarding this affair with Ju Mang Ancestor Witch, the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch had long been dissatisfied; merely because last time Five Old Lords arbitrarily acted against Wood Virtue Star Lord, Ju Mang Ancestor Witch could use the excuse of being dragged into it, giving the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch no fitting reason to act.

After all, the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch only handles violations of the gods, Ju Mang Ancestor Witch though interfering in godly contests, wasn’t one of the Heavenly Court gods, nor the instigator of the battle, so the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch could merely suppress temporarily.

Yet even so, the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch never truly let go regarding that incident; during this period, he’s been collecting evidence, aiming to convict Five Old Lords, if not stripping their divine position, at least imposing sufficient penalties.

For the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch’s actions, even the Taoist Monarchs within Taoist School supporting Five Old Lords felt somewhat helpless, for this affair is distinctly Five Old Lords’ fault first, without a single flaw in the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch’s actions.
