Although the man was unnerved, he still felt superior to the Twelfth Universe’s humans and began to threaten Jacopo.
“Shut the f*ck up.”
Henry raised his foot and kicked the man to the floor, causing him to roll over a couple of times.
“It doesn’t matter which universe you’re from. Once you’ve stepped foot into the Twelfth Universe’s Human Realm, you follow our
rules.”
Henry was a hot-head. Regardless of how many years had passed, his temper never got better.
Jacopo frowned. As the Lord of the Heavenly Court, he was well aware how strong other universes were. The Twelfth Universe
was currently far too weak to compete with them.
After taking everything into consideration, Jacopo said, “Since you’re from the Sitch Universe, I won’t sentence you to death.
However, you must still be punished for your crimes. You shall receive three thousand lightning strikes and will be expelled from
the Twelfth Universe.”
Hearing Jacopo’s orders, a few guards immediately entered the hall and dragged the man out of Cumulus Palace. He was
brought outside the South Heaven Gate where bolts of lightning arced through the sky and repeatedly struck his body.
The man shrieked in pain.
“My fellow cultivators, isn’t this a little too much?”
The oppressive voice boomed throughout the Heavenly Court like lightning. A few weaker members of the Heavenly Court were
severely injured by the soundwave and fell to the ground as they coughed up blood.
Jacopo’s brows furrowed, and his expression turned dark.
A gorgeous woman wearing a beautiful dress walked into the main hall. She was James’ disciple, Monica. She said, “Your
Majesty, someone powerful is approaching us. I’m afraid there’s no one in the Heavenly Court that can take him on.”
As soon as she said this, a middle-aged man appeared outside the South Heaven Gate.
The middle-aged man wore a black robe. He had long eyebrows and a very sharp chin. His appearance was rather unusual. As
soon as he appeared, he unleashed a powerful force that killed the person delivering the lightning punishment. Then, he lifted
the seal on the man from the Sixth Universe.
“Master!”
When the punished man was released from the seal, he immediately rushed to his savior. He was covered in wounds and looked
ragged.
“Master, you must avenge me.”
The middle-aged man was a Caelum Ancestral God from the Sixth Universe. Those that could cross into the Caelum Ancestral
Rank were not easy opponents. He was an extremely powerful prodigy that had cultivated multiple Paths.
His name was Taldor Hernandez and he was a Seven-Power Caelum Ancestral God. Seeing his disciple in shambles from the
lightning punishment, Taldor’s blood boiled. He replied, “As your master, I’ll definitely avenge you.”
Taldor slowly walked toward the South Heaven Gate. As he approached, the Heavenly Court Army rushed toward the South
Heaven Gate. The fully-armed soldiers stared at Taldor warily.
A general commanded, “Don’t let him through!”
As soon as he delivered his order, the soldiers charged at the middle-aged man with their weapons. Taldor remained calm as he
summoned a long sword. He violently swung his sword, and a bright Sword Energy flew out, instantly killing the soldiers rushing
toward him.
The Heavenly Court Army was no match against a Seven-Power Caelum Ancestral God.
Jacopo’s face grew grim as he watched the battle unfold outside the South Heaven Gate from inside of Cumulus Palace.
“Your Majesty, let’s try to settle this peacefully.”
Connor, one of the Four Heavenly Lords, persuaded. “He’s a Caleum Ancestral God and has incredible strength. He’s practically
invincible here. No one from the Heavenly Court can fight him.”
“Settle it peacefully?” Another of the Four Heavenly Lords, Walganus, also known as Hilarius, stepped forward and said,
“Countless powerhouses from other universes have come to the Twelfth Universe recently. If we compromise today, then the
Human Race will eventually be tormented by them. We must take this Caelum Ancestral God down at all costs.”
