The Unruly Immortals

After pacing back and forth a few times, Li Huowang turned around, but the massive Mao's Gate still hovered there unchanged.

Li Huowang didn't try again. He finally understood that it wasn't that he couldn't enter; someone was stopping him, and something must be happening inside the White Jade Capital!

"Who is it? Is it the Fate Commander from Fusheng Heaven coming for a sneak attack?" Li Huowang immediately dismissed this option. If there really was a Fate Commander from Fusheng Heaven inside the White Jade Capital, then the White Jade Capital's own Fate Commander couldn't have had the time to stand around watching the scene.

"Could it be a Fate Commander from White Jade Capital then? But the question is, who is it? What exactly do they want to accomplish?"

After pondering for a moment, Li Huowang suddenly had an idea. He looked at the massive jade door before him and shouted loudly, "Zhao Shuangdian! Qing Wanglai! Can you hear me? I'm talking to you now!"

"Don't respond to me! I don't know what you're saying right now! What I want to say is, pay attention to each other's actions, see who is behaving unusually or acting out of the ordinary! I need to figure out who is stopping me from entering the White Jade Capital!"

To avoid any misunderstanding, Li Huowang quickly added, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not doubting you. I'm just using the method of elimination. If you're not the problem, then it's another Fate Commander inside White Jade Capital stopping me!!"

"Help me this once! If in the future you still want me to help you!"

After saying all this, Li Huowang took a deep breath and waited silently for a few seconds before he kicked off with both feet, rushing towards the White Jade Capital once more.

This time, just as he was about to enter, that special sensation of stagnation reappeared.

As he saw himself about to break through again, Li Huowang roared loudly, "Keep an eye on everyone else! See who's sabotaging my efforts!"

As soon as Li Huowang shouted this, the sensation of stagnation on his body finally disappeared, and he managed to break into the White Jade Capital.

Instantly, a kaleidoscope of wondrous scenes appeared at the original place.

What appeared before Li Huowang were over a dozen Zuo Qiuyong's, larger than mountains and deeper than oceans, writhing and struggling as their bodies gradually melted.

Their bodies continued to melt and heal, enduring this extreme pain.

"Zuo Qiuyong?! Wasn't he dead?" But soon, Li Huowang finally understood. Those were Zuo Qiuyong's Ten Emotions and Eight Miseries!

What was rotting on the ground was nothing but Zuo Qiuyong's shell. The real Zuo Qiuyong had long been pulled into the White Jade Capital!

Zuo Qiuyong's flesh was gigantic in itself, not to mention there were now eighteen of them entangled together, forming a continually writhing and melting mass of blood and flesh before Li Huowang's eyes.

Listening to Zuo Qiuyong's wailing, watching his Ten Emotions and Eight Miseries melt piece by piece, Li Huowang finally understood that it was Zuo Qiuyong's Ten Emotions and Eight Miseries that tormented and pleased Bahu! Only the pain and torment of a Fate Commander could make her laugh so uncontrollably!

As Zuo Qiuyong's body gradually melted, strands of something white were continuously filtered out, disappearing into the air.

That thing was very special, but as a Fate Commander, Li Huowang could discern it at a glance; it was none other than the Growing Heavenly Dao!

Although the area around him was barren, it was quite evident that something was attacking Zuo Qiuyong and attempting to usurp his Growing Heavenly Dao!

"No! I need to help Zuo Qiuyong!" Without a second thought, Li Huowang rushed over.

As he charged, Li Huowang shouted to the surroundings, "Can no one see the enemy? What are you doing! Hurry up!!"

But just as Li Huowang arrived at Zuo Qiuyong's side, he felt something brush across his body in the empty surroundings.

Instinctively, Li Huowang reached out and grabbed, feeling strands of something akin to hair gradually vanish into his palm.

At that moment, a shadow flickered from the side and collided with Li Huowang, sending him flying out of the White Jade Capital, back into the starry void.

Immediately, before Li Huowang could react, the world trembled, and the surroundings changed rapidly. In no time, he had returned to Yi Donglai's study, where everyone else was scrutinizing him.

Bahu's sharp laughter continued, but Li Huowang's gaze was fixed intently on Qing Wanglai.

Raising his right hand, feeling the sensation that had just brushed across his palm, Li Huowang said to Qing Wanglai, "You may have stopped me, but I still touched you, San Qing! It was you! You did it!"

"Li Huowang, what's wrong with you? You can't have an issue now." Qing Wanglai looked worriedly at Li Huowang.

"Enough with the act! I saw it with my own eyes! It was you! You killed Zuo Qiuyong! You are the one seizing Zuo Qiuyong's Growing Heavenly Dao! Although I can't see you, I touched you!"

"Qing Wanglai! What are you trying to do! You clearly govern the Secret Heavenly Dao! Why seize Zuo Qiuyong's Dao!"

"Aren't you smart? With Fusheng Heaven watching closely, you dare to fight amongst ourselves now!"

Qing Wanglai adjusted his glasses and looked somewhat displeased at Yi Donglai, "Doctor Yi, what on earth have you done to him? Do you think we pose a threat, so you use your psychological knowledge to manipulate Li Huowang against us?"

"I'm telling you, this won't work. If Li Huowang doesn't recover today, then I really can't apologize enough." Qing Wanglai said as he pulled out his gun from his pocket.

The ferocious-faced Li Huowang stepped forward a few paces, blocking the way between Yi Donglai and him. "Stop changing the subject! Qing Wanglai, you must give me an explanation!"

Li Huowang had suspected Qing Wanglai before; during the confrontation with Fusheng Heaven, he barely made any effort!

Rather than thinking of Qing Wanglai as a useless fool as before, Li Huowang now worried that this guy had already defected to Fusheng Heaven in secret!

"Restrain him. Li Huowang has completely lost his mind. Zhao Lei, Sister Chen, give me a hand."

But just as Qing Wanglai led the others forward, Yang Na, wielding a military knife, was the first to rush to Li Huowang, and Zhao Shuangdian, holding a notebook, was the second. "Qing, I'm also curious about the answer to Li Huowang's question."

Looking at the woman blocking his way, Qing Wanglai smiled wryly with a hint of helplessness, "No way? Zhao Shuangdian, surely you don't actually believe his words?"

Zhao Shuangdian glanced at the current Li Huowang and nodded naturally, "That's right, I believe him. At least the parameters he's provided aren't wrong. Conversely, with you, I can never see through."
