Qiu Yuxuan could be indifferent to everything, for instance, the death of four high-tier Immortal Officials right in front of her; she seemed not to notice at all.
But she couldn't be indifferent to cultivation, especially the swordsmanship she specialized in.
With the unparalleled opportunity of Emperor Sword Star, she currently had only comprehended a Seventh Layer Sword Dao World.
And she was already praised by all Divine Monarchs and everyone in the Sword Pavilion as an unparalleled genius in swordsmanship.
Because she only took eighty thousand years to reach this stage from entry level.
Seventh Layer Sword Dao World, most Daoist Venerables had never comprehended.
She had every right to be proud.
The premise was not to compare with Jiang Cheng.
Qiu Yuxuan was already the person who favored Brother Cheng the most, but she truly never expected this man to have an Eighth Layer Sword Dao World.
Compared to others, she knew more about Jiang Cheng's background.
She was very aware that back in King Jia's Dojo, Jiang Cheng had no idea what a Sword Dao World was.
He was completely an outsider.
This meant that eighty thousand years ago, she and he started at the same time.
Then, despite having the advantage of Emperor Sword Star, she was surpassed by him after eighty thousand years?
For Qiu Yuxuan, who was extremely proud and looked down on everyone else, this was a huge blow.
Thankfully, this wave of blows came from Jiang Cheng, and she had already adapted to it many times in advance.
Otherwise, it might have affected the stability of her Daoist Heart.
Unlike her, everyone's focus was on the fact that four Immortal Officials were killed on the spot.
Both on and off the platform, everyone was about to go crazy.
In the Celestial Palace where killing Immortal Officials was not allowed, someone openly beheaded four Immortal Officials in front of ten Divine Monarchs!
And of the four, two were Lower-Rank Star Lords of great significance, and two were highly esteemed Third Grade Immortal Officials.
This greatly exceeded everyone's psychological endurance limit.
To the extent that they didn't have time to think about how a Celestial Venerable managed to do this.
"Oh my god!"
"What happened, can someone tell me what happened?"
Some people held their heads, looking bewildered and helpless.
"Are we trapped in an Illusion Realm?"
"Was what we just saw an illusion?"
"Oh dear, oh dear…"
For them, who had lived peacefully for years and rarely experienced life-and-death battles, this scene was indeed a bit hard to accept.
"That madman, what is he trying to do?"
"Insane, insane, have they gone mad, is this a declaration of war against the Celestial Palace?"
The chaos in the audience was overwhelming, even Wenren Sihai, the 'involved party' who made the bet, turned pale with fear, at a complete loss.
How did that kid dare?
How did he dare do this?
It was just a bet, was it necessary to go so crazy?
He was now even worried that he might get dragged into this.
Because this matter was indeed extremely significant!
Among the four dead, three were Daoist Venerables, the Law Enforcement Department would likely have a hard time making a separate decision...
The First, Second, and Third Grade Immortal Officials on the platform, who had been mocking Jiang Cheng and waiting to see him make a fool of himself, had all lost their composure.
Everyone jumped up.
Except Fan Lei Daoist Venerable, the Second-Grade Immortal Official.
He was no stranger to Jiang Cheng killing Immortal Officials.
At this moment, an odd thought even crossed his mind.
This bloodthirsty madman was quite 'merciful' to the Divine Thunder Bureau back then, only killed two Supremes, didn't even kill a Daoist Venerable.
However, others didn't have his level of acceptance.
"Kill him!"
"This madman, this murderer, dares to slaughter Immortal Officials!"
"He can't be allowed to live, absolutely can't let him stay!"
Countless Daoist Venerables at this moment drew their weapons, no longer daring to be as arrogant as those few earlier.
Even though Jiang Cheng was just a Celestial Venerable.
But the instant massacre just now had already made their hair stand on end.
They didn't really want to avenge those four, it was just that the dignity of a Daoist Venerable couldn't be provoked, and the status of High-tier Immortal Officials couldn't be lowered.
If Jiang Cheng were to stay on the Purple Jade Platform alive today, their dignity would be completely lost.
Perhaps in the future, many Celestial Venerable Supremes would imitate Jiang Cheng and also show them disrespect.
"Such atrocious crimes! Must be put to death!"
"Even death is too light a punishment, must be tortured before execution!"
"Yes, his sins are too deep, must be severely punished to set an example!"
Yet no one truly stepped forward to act.
First of all, this was Emperor Sword Star, they had no real chance of winning.
Secondly, King Lv from the Law Enforcement Department was present, an immediate authority, didn't need their meddling.
Facing everyone's unanimous demand to destroy Jiang Cheng, King Lv looked constipated.
To hell with it, if Jiang Cheng could be sentenced to death, would he need your urging?
He would have been pulverized eighty thousand years ago!
He looked awkwardly at his colleagues like King Jing, King Shi, and Prince Yi, intending to seek their opinions.
But these few all adopted a serene demeanor, suddenly appearing enlightened, transcending all emotions and worldly matters.
King Lv silently cursed, clearly seeing through their intentional silence.
The four dead had high status and strong power, it was a colossal matter for the Celestial Palace.
It overshadowed the Emperor Sword Star selection event itself.
If this matter wasn't handled appropriately, the consequences would be extremely negative.
Yet... Jiang Cheng couldn't be sentenced to death.
Faced with an unsolvable dilemma, they couldn't do anything but leave the problem for King Lv to handle alone.
King Lv's expressions fluctuated, finally slowly soaring into the air.
Facing the gradually quieting crowd, he announced his 'verdict'.
"The four of them deliberately provoked Jiang Cheng, unilaterally attacking him, in violation of Celestial Palace laws, deserved what they got, they died rightfully!"
"This matter ends here!"
If those four knew in the afterlife, they would probably be angered to resurrect.
Hell, did we break Celestial Palace laws?
Isn't it encouraged by you?
And you transmitted saying 'teach him a lesson', wasn't it your words?
Now that people are dead, you change your stance?
Claim we attacked the Immortal Official?
The scene was again in uproar.
"This is fine?"
"He blatantly killed four high-tier Immortal Officials!"
"He can get off scot-free? Are you kidding?"
"Where is the Law Enforcement Department's justice?"
"Ridiculous, this is too ridiculous..."
Several First Grade Immortal Officials stepped forward, frowning and speaking seriously, "King Lv, I think this is very inappropriate..."
Their words weren't finished when King Lv impatiently interrupted them.
"Enough, is the decision of the Law Enforcement Department something you can question?"
His Divine Soul, belonging to a Divine Monarch, pressed down mightily, and many Daoist Venerables on the Purple Jade Platform were drenched in cold sweat, feeling mortal danger.
The lower-strength Immortal Officials below had their heads buzzing, nearly fainting on the spot.
Instantly, the whole place was forced into silence.
Such was the power of a Divine Monarch, capable of suppressing an audience single-handedly.
Whether you are Supreme or Daoist Venerable.
Even though this was Emperor Sword Star, it didn't change the overwhelming power gap like descending from another dimension.
After suppressing the entire scene, King Lv then glared at Jiang Cheng as if wanting to devour him.
