Chapter 483 - 480: A Shocking Entrance

"Someone is raiding the execution ground!" the Execution Supervisor yelled at the top of his lungs, "Come quickly! Someone is raiding the execution ground!!!"

"Rumble..."

A troop of fully armed soldiers ran over and surrounded the stone platform so tightly not even water could seep through, and the onlookers, the common folk, were all driven away.

"Who is so bold as to dare raid the execution ground!" Seeing the soldiers arrive, the Execution Supervisor found his courage and shouted with his hands on his hips, "Today, I will make sure you won't leave alive!!!"

"Swoosh! Swoosh!"

Two figures descended from the sky, landing steadily on the stone platform, only ten feet away from the Execution Supervisor.

"Ah!" The Execution Supervisor got a fright, hurriedly retreating more than a dozen steps, then screamed shrilly, "Quick, capture them! If they dare resist, kill them on the spot!"

"Hoo hah..."

The surrounding soldiers rushed forward with loud shouts.

"How presumptuous!" The Emperor roared angrily, "Are you trying to rebel!" In the time it took to speak, an intense aura burst forth from the Emperor, directly intimidating all the soldiers.

Thousands of soldiers stood in place, their faces filled with terror as they looked at the Emperor.

Even the Execution Supervisor was stunned, standing dumbly on the stone platform, not daring to utter another word.

It's said: When an Emperor rages, a million corpses lie prostrate! This is certainly not a joke!

When an Emperor gets angry, a powerful aura emanates, capable of intimidating those around him! This is what people often refer to as "the Majestic Qi of a Sovereign."

Standing by the side, Gao Fei pondered inwardly: He had to work hard and aspire to reach the heights of the Emperor one day.

"Your Majesty... is it really you..." Bai Daqing, kneeling on the stone platform, said with an emotional tone, "I'm not dreaming, am I..."

The Emperor flicked his finger, sending a gust of wind that cut Bai Daqing's ropes, then extended his hand to help Bai Daqing up: "I am late; you have suffered." With just this simple sentence, Bai Daqing's eyes reddened, and tears fell.

"Your Majesty, I thought I would never see you again in this lifetime." Bai Daqing cried.

"What's there to cry about," the Emperor frowned, "A grown man blubbering, what does that look like! Wipe your tears quickly, stop crying."

"Yes, yes, yes, I won't cry, I won't cry." Bai Daqing nodded repeatedly while wiping his tears with his sleeve; the dirt from the sleeve fell onto his face, mixed with the tears, and turned into a patchy mess.

At that moment, Gao Fei stepped forward to greet Bai Daqing: "City Lord Bai, I didn't let you down after all."

"Thank you," Bai Daqing said with heartfelt gratitude, "I never thought you could actually find His Majesty the Emperor."

"Daqing," the Emperor smiled slightly, "You've got yourself a good subordinate. This young man has gone through a lot to save you; you must treat him well in the future."

"Definitely," Bai Daqing nodded firmly, "From today onwards, I will treat Gao Fei like my own son; his business is my business, and if anyone dares to bully him, I will never allow it!"

"What if I am the one who bullies Gao Fei?" the Emperor said with a smile.

"Uh..." Bai Daqing's face twitched, and he said with a bitter smile, "Your Majesty, please don't make fun of me. With your status and position, how could you ever bully Gao Fei, that's simply impossible."

"Look how scared you are," the Emperor burst out laughing, "I'm just kidding. Gao Fei is a loyal and righteous young man, and I appreciate him too much to bully him."

Elsewhere.

The Execution Supervisor's face was pale, his body shaking uncontrollably, "The Emperor? He is the Emperor? Impossible! This can't be! It must be fake, they must be impersonating!" The Execution Supervisor was terrified.

The soldiers surrounding the area were terrified as well, their faces turning pale as they lowered their weapons, unsure of what to do next. They had actually attempted to lay siege to His Majesty the Emperor—this was practically seeking death.

"Your Majesty, I've been wronged..." Bai Daqing hadn't even finished speaking when the Emperor interrupted him.

The Emperor waved his hand and said, "Gao Fei has already informed me of the situation. Don't worry, as long as I'm here, nobody can touch you." Having said that, he added, "Today, the King of Eastern Spirits must give me an explanation, or else I will not let him off!"

"Your Majesty, there is something I must tell you; please don't be angry after hearing it."

"What is it?"

"Ever since you went into closed-door cultivation, the four royal princes have been behaving atrociously, allowing their subordinates to oppress the commoners, bringing mayhem and disaster upon the Human Territory."

"Is that truly so?"

"I swear on my life that what I say is the complete truth; if there's even a half-truth in my words, may I be struck by divine punishment!" Bai Daqing declared with resounding certainty.

Enraged, the Emperor's complexion turned ashen, his body emitting sharp and fierce killing intent: "When I began my cultivation retreat, I made it clear to them that they had to manage the Human Territory well and avoid causing any trouble. They have taken my words for nothing but the wind!" After hearing Bai Daqing's words, the Emperor was extremely furious. He had personally conferred the titles to the four royal princes, and now, their heinous conduct was a direct affront to his dignity.

The outrageous deeds of the four royal princes—what would the commoners say? They would certainly criticize the Emperor as being blind and incapable of judging character. The Emperor valued his reputation above all, and anyone who dared to tarnish it would pay a painful price.

"Your Majesty! Is it truly you? I thought you were in closed-door cultivation?" A figure sped from afar, incredibly fast—one moment tens of miles away, the next stepping onto the stone platform. It was none other than Sikong Yi, the King of Eastern Spirits. Having received news that His Majesty the Emperor had arrived, Sikong Yi at first didn't believe it because he knew the Emperor was undergoing a life-death cultivation retreat and shouldn't have been out and about. But when he arrived at the scene, he was dumbfounded—the Emperor had truly come!

"Sikong Yi," the Emperor turned around, his gaze icy as he looked at Sikong Yi: "Why did you order the execution of Bai Daqing?"

"I... I..." Sikong Yi stuttered, unable to give an answer.

"Speak!" the Emperor commanded sternly, "What exactly is going on!"

Under the interrogation of the Emperor, Sikong Yi's face involuntarily twitched, his forehead sprouting a dense layer of cold sweat. Despite his arrogance in front of others, in the presence of the Emperor, he was terror-stricken and dared not exhibit the slightest bit of defiance.

"That... Bai Daqing was disrespectful and provoked me on multiple occasions... And he almost killed my son. What infuriates me the most is that he publicly maligned Your Majesty's reputation. I couldn't take it anymore and ordered his execution..."

"You said Bai Daqing provoked you?"

"Yes."

"Why would he provoke you?"

"This..."

"You said Bai Daqing almost killed your son?"

"That's right."

"Why would he attack your son?"

"This..."

"You said Bai Daqing publicly maligned my reputation?"

"Yes, that's right."

"Where's the evidence? How can you prove that Bai Daqing maligned my reputation?"

"The evidence..."
