Chapter 788

(Unedited)



Shin Jiao's group enters a tall building under the eyes of many people who curiously gaze at them. Some showed curiosity while others look at them with interest upon seeing their armor and the weapons they are carrying.

Then they soon reached in front of two huge wooden doors, and on both sides stood two gold armored soldiers.

"Wait here please…" the man guiding the group said as he stood in front of the two huge doors.

The man just stood there without saying anything as he waited. Not long later, a melodious voice from inside was heard.

'Let them in…'

It is clear that a woman owns that voice and everyone's expression turned mystified. Shin Jiao knew that the woman who owns that voice infused some mysterious technique to her voice so that her words would turn those lower-level cultivators muddleheaded.

He did not know what her purpose was so he just plays along with it.

Except for Ji Ha-jun, everyone seems to have been hypnotized. Except for the two guards, Ji Ha-jun and the guide, everyone in Shin Jiao's party suddenly showed lifeless expressions on their faces.

Ji Ha-jun knew that something is wrong and he is already on guard. He held in his hand a talisman while he suddenly moves beside Shin Jiao.

Then the two large doors open and the 21 people began floating in the air towards the direction of the room. Ji Ha-jun was not able to use his talisman as he felt his body being locked into place by a more powerful domain.

The group landed in the middle of a hall where many people are sitting on the side with seven saint rulers sitting at the top of a throne-like platform.

"You people have come on time… However, it seems that you do not fear us anymore. There is a bounty for your heads from the Osmond clan. Yet you think that you can just walk in here as if nothing has happened? Too brazen and foolish…" a beautiful woman sitting in one of the seven thrones said while looking at the people in front of her like they were ants.

The disdain in her tone could clearly be noticed and it seems that she carries great animosity towards the people below.

"Oh, Exalted One… What… What is… the meaning of this? We were asked by you guys to have mutual cooperation. Are you… going to break your words?" Ji Ha-jun said with gritted teeth.

This is what he has feared would happen. Since those people are saint rulers and they are just lower-level cultivators, they would be looked down upon and might even be captured to steal the technology or worse reveal the location of the village.

Although he was thinking about it, yet he did not expect it to happen. He knew the pride of the saint rulers, so he tried to shake that notion in his mind. But now, it seems that what he thought was really correct.

And now their situation looks a little dire and dangerous. However, he is not afraid.

Their group has been preparing for this ever since the influence of the Shadow Beings appears in the immortal land. So he did not cower and face the saint rulers with a straight face.

"Hahaha… Why would we lower ourselves in your level? We can just take that technology in your hands, or better yet, extract the information where you guys are hiding, and then we can capture everyone in one fell swoop…" she said with a proud smile.

"Exalted Ones, are you in the same mind as her?" Ji Ha-jun asked with a serious expression.

No one answered as they just look at the group with a slight smile on their faces. It was like they are watching a show which seems to interest them just a tiny bit.

Seeing the reaction of the rest of the saint rulers, Ji Ha-jun looks around and then studied the expression of the rest of the people around them.

From what he could tell, it seems that everyone inside this room seems to be not in their right mind.

"Something is wrong…" he thought as he wanted to use his talisman.

However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not move his body as if he was locked into place.

"Hahaha… It's no use… all of you are under my spell. Everyone in this room is under my charm spell. You might have escaped the pursuit of the Osmond clan, but not me. I will take every one of you, and then I will destroy that village. Hihi… My master would be proud." She said with a slight chuckle as she raised her hand.

As her hand lowers, someone from the crowd clears his throat.

"Ahem…"

Then a tall bulky man with long red flowing hair suddenly stood up and walks forward.

"Forgive my intrusion… But it seems that I have to stop this now… Oh, Exalted One." Flame Lord Krol said with a smile on his face.

When the woman saw this, her eyes went wide in disbelief.

"How?… You… You're only a high lord… How could you wake up from my charm spell? That charm spell is could even control Saint Rulers… No matter… I will just have to kill you then." She said as she suddenly waves her hand and throws a wisp of dark energy towards Flame Lord Krol.

"Haha… Saint Ruler May Jin, you seem to forget that I am a Dragon Kin Invigilator." Flame Lord Krol said as he grabs the ax from his side.

Then using it as a shield he blocks the dark wisp.

The ax seems to have absorbed the malevolent dark energy as it did not have any effect on Flame Lord Krol.

But then before Flame Lord Krol could do anything, he suddenly noticed another wave of energy. This time it is a sharp wind spell coming towards him.

He used the flat of the ax to block it, but his figure was sent flying about 10 meters towards a pillar.

Bam!

Flame Lord Krol hit the pillar with a loud thud but it seems that he was not injured at all.

"Tsk… Dragonkin are really hard to deal with." May Jin said with a frown.

"It seems that you are not a Shadow puppet, but a shadow agent. An immortal who sold their soul to the Shadow Beings…" Flame Lord Krol said as he casually walks back to the front.

"Humph… I don't have time to deal with you…" May Jin said as she turns towards the 21 people.

She wanted to wave her hand and take the people away, but then she suddenly feels several strong domains pinning her into place.

She showed an incredulous expression as she saw the rest of the Saint Rulers looking at her with a serious expression.

"It seems that you really have sold yourself to that Shadow Being… Tsk… I never would have thought that you would sink this low, May Jin." A tall and handsome Saint Ruler said while showing a disappointed look on his handsome face.

Seeing that everyone has already known her secret, May Jin could not help but lament her failure. But what she could not understand is how they were able to wake up from the charm spell she used.

Seeing her confused look, everyone just showed a faint smile on their faces. How could they admit that they were actually helped by someone who is only in the gold level?

So it is better to keep their silence to maintain their dignity as Saint Rulers.

"Saint Ruler May Jin, since you have broken the taboo in the immortal land and allied yourself with the demons, we hereby strip you of your status as a Saint Ruler along with your powers…" the six people sitting on the throne said.

Then one of them steps forward and then began chanting. Then with a wave of his hand, a spatial tear opens.

"No… Not the dimension prison! I am a Saint Ruler! You cannot do this to me! No!" May Jin panicked upon seeing the spatial tear.

As an immortal and a Saint Ruler, she knew about the dimension prison. In fact, it is not a prison, but banishment. She would be forever in that place, and worst, she would be devoured by those Leviathan monsters living inside the dimension.

She wanted to fight back, but the domain holding her is too powerful.

"Before we sent you… I would just say that we actually set this trap for the traitor in our midst. We just did not know it was you."

Then May Jin was sent inside the spatial tear while she was screaming at the top of her lungs. When space closes everyone in the hall suddenly woke up and showed confusion on their faces.

Then one of the saint rulers stood up.

"Everyone… We will postpone the meeting with the people from Ji village until tomorrow due to some unforeseen circ.u.mstances…"

"People from Ji village, please follow us," he added as the six remaining Saint Rulers stood up and enters a room along with Flame Lord Krol.

When the group is inside the large room that looks like a conference hall, the saint rulers take up their seats and gestured for Ji Ha-jun to also take his seat while the others just move to the corner and take their places.

"Lord Ji, thank you for helping us." one of them said with a grateful smile on his face.

However, Ji Ha-jun is showing an awkward smile as he did not know what just happened.
