Chapter 1178: An Unstoppable Power Surface!
“Those meddlesome Westons!” Wallace winced as he heard Irv’s report about George’s whereabouts, and five more people were present in his personal chambers.
“Did you guys find out if he had joined the Weston Clan?” Wallace asked, knowing that fuming in this situation would do him no good.
Now that the Weston Clan has been involved, it won’t be easy for him to get his hands on the thievish bastard, especially since they were on their own turf. If it was the Southern Guardian Sect City, it would be completely opposite since the Oriente Clan was the law there, and the same thing goes for the Western Guardian Sect City!
Irv shook his head with naked rage in his eyes, “No, the last thing we were able to get from our spies was the chief city guard escorting that thievish rat into the main estate, and it’s been two weeks since he was last seen. Now, what should we do? Are we going to let him be after what he did!?”
“Anger is not a solution to your problem, Young Irv. This matter is no longer so simple.” An old man suddenly chimed in with a stern tone and dismissive expression. He was clearly not invested in this silly charade.
Wallace glanced at the old man and coldly asked, “Then what do you suggest, Sixth Elder? I’m positive he’s hiding something. From our investigation, that guy was nothing but an ordinary core disciple of Violet Yang Grand Sect, a backwater sect at the edge of Spirit Inferno Domain! The abilities he showed here had never been seen before, so it’s quite obvious that something happened to him when he was traveling to this place.
“Not only that, but we even found quite an interesting thing about this George. He left the Violet Yang Grand Sect because he had offended their Grand Elder’s granddaughter, and that woman seemed to have sent assassins after him.
“But since he’s still alive, I reckoned they had failed, or he had managed to avoid them. Furthermore, that guy was a coward; his personality didn’t match his arrogant behavior here at all. So, I’m pretty sure he had gotten something that gave him enough courage to run rampant here.
“Oh, and you know, want to hear another interesting thing? From our source in the Western city’s Black Market, that brat had been spotted exiting the Sea of Secrets!” Wallace sneered, seeing the Sixth Elder’s expression change the moment he mentioned the Sea of Secrets!
“Are you positive?! He’s really been in the Sea of Secrets!?” Sixth Elder asked in an agitated tone, his dismissive expression completely gone.
“Unless the Black Market wanted to lose their credibility, I’m pretty sure.” Wallace replied without hesitation, “In fact, just before the Weston Clan made their move, the steward of the Black Market was already planning on making a move on George. We all know the importance of any connection with the Sea of Secrets, and it’s been decades if not centuries since they made a mistake and exposed their so-called patron’s identity in the Spirit Inferno Domain despite having many branches.
“If my knowledge is not wrong, the last person who was exposed was kidnapped by a mysterious person and never heard from again. As for fearing the Sea of Secrets, we all know they won’t care about anyone as long as we don’t cause trouble for them.
“But we can’t miss this. Even the sect didn’t dare to do anything to the Sea of Secrets despite their treasure trove of knowledge, and everyone wanted it. Let’s put my personal matter aside. If we capture George and use his connection with the Sea of Secrets for our clan, it would be a huge merit.”
The Sixth Elder and everyone else beside him nodded, knowing Wallace’s words weren’t lies. “I need to report this to the patriarch. Since Weston Clan already took him, it won’t be easy to get him back. But don’t worry, Young Lord Wallace. We won’t let anyone who offended the offspring of Oriente walk free for long!”
Not waiting for Wallace’s reply, the Sixth Elder quickly excused himself, and those others with him followed suit, leaving Wallace and Irv alone.
“Tsk, greedy bastards!” Irv scoffed with disdain before he turned to Wallace and asked, confused by Wallace’s actions, “Why did you tell them, My Lord? Now, they’ll do everything to catch him alive.”
“So what?” Wallace’s rageful attitude was completely gone as he appeared extremely calm, “That guy is too strange, and even the Sea of Secrets thought so as well since they allowed him to enter their mysterious den. Having that kind of enemy is not good, and Weston Clan had already acquired him, so he’s untouchable unless an Elder from the sect moves, which we both know is impossible.
“In fact, if we told them the same thing, they would first try to recruit him into the sect, and he’d most likely agree with it, making him even more untouchable. So, letting those greedy fellows take action and make his life difficult is the only thing left. I even secretly released this information to the other two cities as well.”
A cold smile appeared on Wallace’s face as he knew George’s life was about to become hellish. “As for us, we are not going to take any action against him any more; we just watch from the sideline. If he somehow survives this, he won’t be able to find our involvement. Although it’s somewhat regretful, it’s the best course of action with how things are turning. Oh, and I also revealed the fact about him being alive to his enemy.”
Irv’s eyes shimmered with awe and reverence, “So, we are muddling the waters and letting the others fish for us. Hahaha, you have my utmost respect, my lord! You have won without even doing anything, and it’s serving that thievish rat right!” He quickly bowed his head.
Wallace chuckled and accepted Irv’s bow before he frowned slightly as he asked, “Since this matter is handled, did you receive any message from the Beast Calamity Mountain Range’s Sect Alliance? It’s about time for them to send my portion of Spirit Stones and Spirit Nectar, but they haven’t made contact, nor are they replying to my messages.”
Irv was surprised before he sneered, “No, Lonnie or his goons haven’t contacted me. Could it be that those ants have become daring and think they can double-cross my lord? Please give me permission to head there personally and teach them a lesson on your behalf.” Wallace shook his head, “No need; there should be some other problem. They knew better than to cross me unless they wanted to lose the entire mine to the sect and then suffer punishment for not alerting the sect. Still, send a Ranger Hawk there, and we’ll see what is going on with them.”
Meanwhile, the Sect Alliance City had undergone a massive revolutionary change at this moment. The masses were kneeling in front of a high pedestal with reverence in their eyes. They looked towards the imposing young man standing on the pedestal, and behind him were kneeling many figures with ragged appearances and listless eyes.
At his moment, the Heaven’s Advocate spoke in a solemn tone as he pointed towards the people behind him, “Everyone, these people in power had exploited you all for years for their own avarice and personal gains without caring about your lives and feelings.
“But today, following the will of high Heaven, I have brought them on the sword tip of justice, and they will suffer for everything they have done under the pretext of righteousness. And make no mistake, this is just the beginning of Heavenly Justice, for I shall purge any and all injustice in the lands of High Heaven and turn them into a real paradise for everyone. “Let the hammer of justice slam in this place and let its echo reverberate throughout the lands!”
The moment Heaven’s Advocate’s voice was filled with a strange charm, it rang. Those people’s eyes shimmered with reverence almost to an outlandish degree as they all cheered
frantically.

At this moment, a phantom of a blindfolded humanoid carrying a scale of justice appeared behind those people on death row, and they started to tremble the moment they sensed the horrifying aura that caused their downfall-the downfall of the most prominent figures, including but not limited to the Sect Leaders and sect Protectors!
As the scales started to trip, the Heaven’s Advocate declared, “I hereby announce the establishment of the Heavenly Justice Court!”
