Trouble!
Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed, and they suddenly felt a sense of impending storm.
"What's going on?" Gu Taiyi asked in a deep voice.
"Guild Master Gu, Master Kaiyang has gone mad!" the associate council member stammered in fear.
Master Kaiyang! He was the Seven Stars Inspector who had previously gone to apprehend Ye Ming and the others. His title was named after the Seven Stars.
Hearing this news, Gu Taiyi trembled, his pupils contracting to pinpricks. He slammed the table and stood up, "What did you say! Say it again?"
Gu Taiyi could hardly believe this news. Not only him, but the auras of the six people behind him also fluctuated upon hearing it. It was evident that their emotions were unstable.
Mad! How could this be possible? As a Seven Stars Inspector, their strength was beyond doubt. They all knew very well that although Inspector Kaiyang's realm was still in the Martial Emperor stage, with his unique "Fearless Sword Intent," he could completely contend with the strongest experts in the early stage of Martial God. How could such a powerful person have gone mad?
"It... it's true!" The association member recounted the scene when Inspector Kaiyang returned. "When I saw Master, he kept repeating things like 'Fearless! How ridiculous!' Moreover, Master kept tripping over his own feet, and he was disheveled! Even..."
"Even... even Master's long sword that he always carried is gone!"
The sword he always carried had also disappeared! Hearing this, Gu Taiyi and the six inspectors behind him were stunned. None of them knew better than they did what that sword meant to Inspector Kaiyang. It was no exaggeration to say that the sword was more precious to him than his own life. But now! He had even abandoned that sword. It was hard to imagine what he had gone through.
"I don't believe it!" At this moment, one of the remaining six Seven Stars Inspectors, a woman who looked to be in her late twenties, stepped forward. She had exquisite features, bright eyes, and a pair of lotus-shaped earrings on her delicate earlobes, giving her a unique classical beauty. "How could Wu Ge abandon his sword?" The "Wu Ge" she referred to was naturally Inspector Kaiyang, Xie Wuling. Her name was Chu Zhen, and her codename among the Seven Stars Inspectors was Yuheng. That is, Inspector Yuheng! At this moment, she was clearly losing control of her emotions. She then rushed out of the council hall and disappeared from everyone's sight. It seemed her relationship with Xie Wuling was not ordinary.
"Tianquan! Follow Yuheng and don't let her do anything foolish!" Gu Taiyi immediately ordered upon seeing this. He was not surprised by Chu Zhen's loss of composure.
"Yes!" A man followed her out immediately.
"You may go now!" After the association member left, the scene once again fell into a deathly silence. Who would have thought that even the Seven Stars Inspectors had failed?
"It seems the current situation is already out of control!"
Ye Ming, at this moment, was unaware that his sudden whim had stirred up a tempest within the Ancient Martial Arts Association. He was still discussing countermeasures with Fang Junxue and the others.
"Sister Junxue, this situation is something we were bound to face sooner or later!" Ye Ming looked at the others and said, "Whether it's martial arts for everyone or immortal cultivation for everyone, these are epoch-making endeavors. When I took the first step, I had already anticipated this day!" "It's just that I didn't expect it to come sooner than I thought!" According to Ye Ming's original plan, the current situation should have occurred a month later. But the Ancient Martial Arts Association's speed of reaction was beyond his expectation. It was too fast! He had only announced the martial arts techniques in his live stream yesterday. In just one day, the Ancient Martial Arts Association had already come knocking. This showed that their live streams had likely been targeted long ago. This had caught Ye Ming somewhat off guard.
"Sister Junxue! You must have a way to help Ye Ming, right?" Nangong Qianyu, upon learning of the severity of the current situation, also became worried. However, she was clearly not skilled in these matters. So, she could only seek help from Fang Junxue. Ye Ming was also eager to know what countermeasures Fang Junxue had in response to the current situation. Before this, she had already told him how to seize the authority from the hands of the Ancient Martial Arts Association. Now, if the Chinese government directly intervened, did Fang Junxue still have a plan?
"The Chinese government is unlikely to directly intervene with the live stream for now; they will let the Ancient Martial Arts Association exert pressure on their behalf! This way, we don't need to rush!" Fang Junxue said calmly, without a ripple. "As long as they don't directly interfere, we have enough time to do many things!"
Hmm? Hearing this, everyone felt a sense of relief. Since Fang Junxue said so, she must have a plan.
"Sister Junxue, what should we do now?" Nangong Qianyu asked eagerly.
"Two things!" Fang Junxue raised a delicate finger and said, "First, we must grasp the absolute authority of martial arts ourselves. This is what we must do now." The answer to how to achieve this might be revealed in today's live stream.
"What's next?" Nangong Qianyu's beautiful eyes widened, a little excited.
"And then..." Fang Junxue actually winked playfully and smiled mysteriously, "We will put on a play!" "A grand play in which all citizens of the world will participate!"
Xindu. The Zhong family.
"Mom! Why did you call me back so urgently? Did something happen?" Zhong Wunian asked anxiously as he entered the hall.
"Sit down!" Li Zhirou pointed to a seat opposite her and said softly. Compared to before, Li Zhirou now seemed more inscrutable.
"Oh!" Zhong Wunian said nothing more and obediently sat down opposite her. Not long after, Zhong Wuhen also entered. Obviously, he was also called by Li Zhirou.
"Brother!" Seeing Zhong Wuhen, Zhong Wunian sat next to him.
"Since you are both here, it's time for you to know some things." At this moment, only the three of them were in the hall. So, no outsiders knew what they said. Half an hour later, the Zhong brothers walked out of the hall. They did not seem to have changed much, just like when they arrived. However, if one observed carefully, one would notice that the expressions in their eyes had changed. They had become somewhat excited. As for why, it was unknown.
"Brother! Do you know? The future world will be exactly as I've always dreamed of!" Zhong Wunian said with a smile. This smile, however, carried a hint of strangeness.
"Wunian, in fact, since childhood, I've felt that you and I are not from the same world!" Zhong Wuhen sighed, "After learning that information from Mom today, I'm even more certain of this!"
"Oh! I feel the same way!" Zhong Wunian did not refute, readily agreeing with his brother.
"Hahaha!" Zhong Wuhen suddenly laughed a few times upon hearing this. Shaking his head, he looked at Zhong Wunian again, patted his shoulder, and said, "You should return to the divine side!"
