Chapter 1124 – Hanging Cloud Kingdom!
Chapter 1124 – Hanging Cloud Kingdom!
Bai Jing Hua was shocked and knew that things were turning bad. However, he couldn’t deny the orders of a Sage and called out to the guards to gather everyone.
Over four hundred people gathered within the palace shortly after. All of them remained obediently still, not daring to make a sound.
Bai Jing Hua said, “Lord Sage, all the members of my Bai Clan are here within the capital are here, a total of four hundred and eighty-two people. There are two hundred and eleven outside the capital and they are unable to return in time.”
Plant Sage’s gaze swept through everyone within the palace.
Everyone felt as though a big mountain was pressing down on them, causing them to find it difficult to breathe.
Fortunately, it only appeared for a short while before that pressure disappeared.
Plant Sage heaved a sigh of relief as well. He did not discover any Demon Men amongst these people.
“Bai Jing Hua!” Plant Sage’s expression turned serious, “The Holy Court has confirmed that your son, Bai Chen Feng, has betrayed humanity and turned into a Demon! He is to be stripped of all his current privileges and to be wanted in the entire Spirit Treasure Continent! Anyone who stayed in contact with him or hid his whereabouts is to be executed on the spot!”
“Ah?!”
Bai Jing Hua jumped as though he was struck by a bolt of lightning, he could not believe what he had just heard.
The son and heir that he had placed high hopes on have turned into a Demon Man!
This...
However, the Holy Court would never slander someone. He had no authority to get the Sage to display the method of discovery as well.
Plant Sage did not care about the expressions of everyone, he was only here to notify them, and not negotiate.
“Bai Jing Hua, as the ruler of a country you lack rulership and as such, you cannot escape from being held responsible! From today onwards, the Hanging Cloud can no longer be referred to as an empire, and will be called the Hanging Cloud Kingdom!”
This meant that the empire has been demoted to an ordinary kingdom.
In the future, Hanging Cloud would slowly be forgotten by the rest of Spirit Treasure Continent.
Because there are thousands of ordinary kingdoms scattered across Spirit Treasure Continent!
Losing the status of an empire will mean that all high-level activities, student acceptance in academies, division of resources, etc., would all be unrelated to them.
He, Bai Jing Hua, and the Hanging Cloud Empire were still reputable within the continent. At least the Sage knows his name.
But from now on, who would still know him? Or even the name, Hanging Cloud?
All that people could recall would be the shame.
And him, Bai Jing Hua, will henceforth be recorded in history as a sinner of Hanging Cloud Empire.
Bai Jing Hua collapsed onto the ground as his body lost strength.
***
Within a prison filled with layers of formations.
This place was known for being the most barren and vile. Not only were there no Spirit Energy, but there was also a cold piercing wind that felt like blades cutting the skin when it touches a person. Every second in this place was torture.
Wine Sage, Sage Cai were present. They were interrogating Madam Ru.
Madam Ru was being locked within a prison cage made of unique material.
The exterior of the cage was covered in a layer of golden light. The light was Golden Spirit Energy that restrains Black Devil Energy. It was because Madam Ru’s body was currently wrapped in strands of Black Devil Energy.
Wine Sage shouted, “Speak, are you the Devil Eye? How did you enter the Spirit Treasure Continent Dimension? What is your motive?”
Mu Rong Ru was covered in burns due to the Golden Spirit, and replied weakly, “Lord Sage, I really do not know anything about this Devil Eye! I did not know why my body possessed this Black Devil Energy as well...”
Sage Cai, who was silent all this time, started speaking, “I have not met you for a long time, but when Wu Hui was still around, I did take note of you. At that time, you cultivated Spirit Energy. Also, the amount of Devil Energy on you is not as dense as that Witch, Zi Xi. I believe you are really not the Devil Eye.”
This was an observation that the other Sages had also noticed.
