Chapter 729

Judgment Delegation

Master expressionlessly raised his hand and hooked a finger in the nothingness, and a playing card fell onto his fingertip.

On the Card Face was a figure wearing a red Theatrical Robe. His face was blurred, and he stood in the center of the Stage with his arms spread open. Playing Cards scattered like snow filling the sky, as if it was a grand opening under dazzling lights.

This was a red [Big Joker].

The moment he saw this card, Jian Changsheng's expression abruptly stiffened.

He stayed blank for a full dozen seconds before looking at the youth in the Theatrical Robe in disbelief, speaking tremblingly:

"Kid bro... no... Gen, General Manager... no, Boss? Also no... that what... Red... Red King! Senior Red King..." Jian Changsheng stammered, his brain seeming to have short-circuited. He himself didn't even know what he was saying.

"Listen to my explanation... I didn't mean that..."

Jian Changsheng was about to cry.

Now Jian Changsheng also came back to his senses. This was the Gray World, and Chen Ling's state clearly hadn't broken free from "World-Ending". At the same time, the only one who could tangle with a "World-Ending" Calamity here was probably only the Red King.

"Little Jian, right?" Master waved his hand, seemingly not taking this matter to heart.

"Go drag that handcart over, and come with me."

"... Yes! Senior Red King!"

Without a second word, Jian Changsheng walked towards the abandoned handcart in the distance. On the way, a terrifying wisp of Killing Intent locked onto him, which was precisely from "Chen Ling"... However, as Master's intimidating gaze fell on him, "Chen Ling" gritted his teeth for a long time, but still coldly snorted and didn't attack Jian Changsheng.

These short few seconds of clashing Auras scared Jian Changsheng into breaking out in a cold sweat.

He also didn't know where he got the courage just now to attack a "World-Ending" Calamity while bearing such Oppressive Aura. He only knew that his heart was full of anger at the time, something climbed up from the bottom of his heart, and then his fists unconsciously fell down...

"You just wait." When Jian Changsheng dragged the handcart past, "Chen Ling" spoke coldly, "I will make you pay the price."

"Senior Red King, he's threatening me!" Jian Changsheng turned his head and shouted.

"?"

"... The two of you settle down for me."

Master looked at an utterly resentful "World-Ending" Calamity and a submissive young man of the Path of the Soldier. After glancing at each other, they viciously separated and followed behind him... He sighed helplessly.

While walking along the black earth, Master seemingly thought of something and dragged out a bizarre-looking Radio out of thin air from the Optical Disc in his sleeve.

Master pressed the Radio's switch:

"Welcome to listening to 'Your Moon, My Heart'~ I am..."

"In the previous chapter, we said that the seventh Commander-in-Chief of the Great Xia Night Watchmen, Lin Qiye, pointed his sword at the mist at the peak of Mount Jiuhua, wanting to use a mortal blade to slash celestial gods..."

"High-end ingredients often only require simple cooking. Let us welcome the special guest of today's program, Zhao Qixue, to talk about her unique experiences and the niche 'Path of the Chef'..."

"..."

"Where did this signal connect me to..." Master muttered, then adjusted the channel again, and forcefully patted the surface of the Radio with his hand. A rustling sound then rang out from inside:

"Welcome to listening to today's South Sea Evening News."

"According to the latest news, the higher-ups of the Five Great Realms have united and established the 'Supreme Judgment Court of Humanity' two hours ago. After deliberation, they ultimately decided to interrogate and judge the former Lord of Wuji, Lou Yu, one of the human Nine Monarchs, on charges such as war crimes and realm extermination crimes."

"But as of now, the Wuji Domain is in a state of disconnection from the outside world. We are unable to contact any of its internal civilian or official organizations. The living conditions of the ordinary people in the Wuji Domain also remain unknown... The Lord of Wuji has also not made any response to this."

"According to speculation, the Lord of Wuji, Lou Yu, is highly likely in an unconscious or immobilized state after losing the Realm War..."

"To this end, the Five Great Realms have already sent out a Judgment Delegation to traverse the Gray World, expected to arrive at the Wuji Domain in half a day."

"The current temporary spokesperson of the Supreme Judgment Court of Humanity pointed out that the primary responsibility of the delegation is to evacuate the ordinary people of the Wuji Domain, and conduct a large-scale evacuation of citizens if necessary, with protecting the lives and safety of ordinary people as the first principle... Secondly, they will inspect the life status of the war criminal Lou Yu, the Lord of Wuji. Depending on the situation, they will bring Lou Yu back to the Judgment Court, and may execute him on the spot if necessary."

"For frontline war reports, the South Sea Evening News will continue reporting for you..."

Hearing this, Master's eyebrows slightly raised...

"A Judgment Delegation huh... Quite interesting."

...

Gray World, on the other side.

A team of nearly a hundred people was slowly advancing on the pitch-black earth.

Looking down from high above, these people were as insignificant as a colony of ants in the desolate Gray World. Their speed seemed very slow, but if one pulled their gaze closer, they could see that every one of them was almost flying close to the ground, while carrying all sorts of supplies, crossing over ravines and Hills... They were like a group of elite fierce generals walking in an alien world.

Ever since the turmoil in the Wuji Domain, all nearby Domain train tracks had been cut off. And the Five Great Realms were separated from Wuji by thousands of kilometers of Gray World, even passing through the territory of a World-Ending Calamity.

A team of nearly a hundred people traversing nearly a thousand kilometers of the Gray World—this had almost never happened in the past decade of human history...

"How far are we from the Wuji Domain?"

In the crowd, a figure draped in black wiped the sweat from his brow and couldn't help but ask.

"At our current speed, it will probably take another half a day to arrive..."

"It still takes that long?"

"Come on, this is already very fast. Even if the Domain train crossed these two Domains, it would take a day at the fastest... Relying purely on physical strength, our speed is already on par with the Domain train."

"Actually, we could be even faster, it's just that dealing with those Calamities that chased us on the way was a waste of time."

"Walking in the Gray World is still too dangerous... Putting aside the mutation of the human body here, just those endlessly arriving Calamities make one's scalp numb. If it weren't for the absolute orders from the higher-ups, I wouldn't have come this time even if you beat me to death."

"With those few in our group around, as long as a World-Ending Calamity doesn't appear, there's probably no Calamity that can stop us, right?"

"Especially the Grand Master leading the team this time, that red-haired Judgment Proxy... she's truly too fierce. Killing Eighth-Tier Calamities is child's play."

"That is the survivor rumored to be from the icy cold of the extreme north, the ceiling of Rank 8 Combat Power, the world's number one female Shura... an existence that can arm-wrestle with a Demigod Tier in a life-and-death battle." Everyone's gazes were cast to the very front of the team, their eyes full of admiration and envy.

At the very front of the Judgment Delegation, a figure brushed across the earth like the wind. The black Enforcer robe fluttered loudly in the wind.

Her hair seemed to be dark red, but was as dark as an abyss in the Gray World. She wore a neat white shirt with a black tie, and a loose Enforcer trench coat over it, looking like a flame of Killing Intent dancing in the Gray World.

As she ran, she raised her hand and gently grasped the bottle necklace fluttering in the wind on her neck.

Her gaze was incredibly resolute.

The former Commander-in-Chief of Enforcers of Aurora City, the Pathway Chief of [Shura], Hong Xiu.
