Chapter 81: The Revelation (1)

"Please, your majesty! We must get justice for our Elder! He was killed by a mere country bumpkin even after knowing that he came from our prestigious and honorable Azure Dragon Sect! This humilation can not be wash away without spilling his blood, your majesty!" A middle-aged looking man wearing a golden robe with a symbol of Azure Dragon on his back was bowing slightly with his fist cupped together in front of the Emperor of the Azure Dragon Empire.

He is showing his anger while still keeping a respectful attitude in front of the man in front of him. But even with his effort, the emperor didn't response immidiately and waited patiently since he didn't know what truly happened.

He is an emperor after all. He needs to be reasonable in every case in order to deliver proper judgement and avoid pampering any of his citizens just because they are under his wings.

The Azure Dragon Sect is under the wing of the Azure Dragon Empire. It was established by the very first Emperor more than three hundred years ago.

It was said that the First Emperor of the Azure Dragon Empire established the sect in order to have a long lasting power that would protect the Empire as long as it is still standing on the ground.

But some thinks that it is more than just that. It was already obvious that the intention of building a sect for an empire is for a protection but since the day that the Empire was established, no other forces or power had ever tried to cause any single trouble because it was rumored that a Emperor Realm Cultivator was protecting the Empire from the shadows!

So anyone that has great intelligence would probably think otherwise.

And if their is really a Emperor Realm Cultivator at the Empire, then why do they need to create a sect? If it was to create more forces, then it would be understandable but the Azure Dragon Empire never had tried to invade nor cause trouble to the other Nations or Empires.

It was believe that the Empire's existence didn't mean to gain control over the whole nation or to invade the other empires but something more deeper.

The Emperor just kept a stern expression without showing any hint of emotion in front of the Elder. He knows that the members of the Azure Dragon Sect had become brazen knowing that they are part of the empire.

The golden robe of the Elder signifies great status not only in the sect but also to the whole continent. He is a Core Elder after all. Which means that he is above all and only below the Sect Leader and Supreme Elder.

Below the Core Elder is the Inner Elder and lastly the Outer Elder which holds the lowest authority among all the elders.

Blue Robe signifies being an Outer Elder and Green Robe for Inner Elders. As you already know, Golden Robe means Core Elder. The coloring code is also the same as that of the disciples. Blue for Outer Disciples, Green for Inner and Gold for Core Disciples. The only difference is that all Elders had the privilege of carving their names on their clothes while the disciples are not permitted to.

Outer Elders possessed cultivation level between Nascent Soul Realm First Stage to Third Stage. Inner Elders must be between Fourth Stage to Sixth Stage. Outer Elders could be promoted to Inner Elders once they reach the Fourth Stage of Nascent Soul Realm. And lastly, Core Elders has a cultivation level of Seventh Stage of Nascent Soul Realm until the Nineth Stage.

But some of the Core Elders are already at the First or Second Stage of Soul Projection Realm and the one in front of the Emperor is basically one of the Elders with a cultivation level of First Stage Soul Projection Realm!

As for the position of Sect Leader and Supreme Elder, their could only be one of each title and cannot be replace unless they died or someone from the sect surpass them.

But that kind of situation had never happened before since the cultivation level of the Sect Leader had already entered the Eight Stage of Soul Projection Realm! As for the Supreme Elder, no one knows the extent of his power since he rarely comes out and was always in seclusion.

He would only make an appearance in matters that involves the survival of their sect or something that needs his assistance. But one thing is for sure, the Supreme Elder is several times more powerful than the Sect Leader!

...

Elder Gong knows that the Emperor is waiting for him to speak further. Being a Core Elder, he is aware that a mere statement without amy concrete evidence would not be taken seriously by the Emperor.

He took out a round crystal ball out of nowhere and grip it with strength that is enough to turn the crystal ball into dust.

This crystal balls are like a recorder. It would record anything once it is activated. Every important member of the Azure Dragon Sect had these crystal balls embedded into their soul. Once it laid down into a person's soul, it would be immidiately activated and in turn, record everything that is happening within the radius of ten kilometers from the cultivator!

Four of these Recording Crystals would be given to every Elders and other Important figures of the sect. One would be embedded to their soul while the other three would remain at the Sect.

The recording of the Crystal would only stop once it's host died and everything that has been recorded would be transferred to the other three crystals. The three balls would light up which means that the main Recording Crystal had stopped working and was transferring everything that has been recorded to them. This could indicate that the person which was hosted by the Recording Crystal had already died.

Maybe you are wondering why they need the other three crystals. But since you need to crush the crystal in order to view the content inside, it could basically mean that they could only watch it for three times. This is also their countermeasure so that any information about the death of the elder would be gone without a single trace.

The Ball Crystal was shattered immidiately and soon turned into fine dust that creates some sparkling tiny dots. After just a few seconds, those dust started to for a vortex that is over the radius of ten meters. It is so gigantic that it feels like you are watching from a gigantic television.

Just right at the center of the vortex is a circle of transparent hue that soon got blurred and started to form a clear image. And with just a mere second, the blurry image soon showed a very clear video.

The Elder already stand aside while letting the Emperor watch the recording. He didn't pay it any heed since he already watched it at the sect a while ago using one crystal. Which means that only leave them with only one Crystal with the first two being already used.

When I said that the Crystal recorded everything, it basically means everything! But the Elders could choose to only leave all the important recordings while discard all of the useless stuffs such as when the person is taking a bath or eating and many more. They are not pervert after all.

The recording would appear to be as fast as lightning but in front of the emperor, it is still a tad bit slow. He could basically watch the whole recording even with that spees without leaving any details behind!

The Emperor is still expressionless while gazing at the recording in front of him. But after a few minutes of watching, his brows twitch. And not only that, after a few more minutes, he could not keep his composure anymore and abruptly stands up from his throne.

This action of his startled the Elder since he didn't find any unbelievable thing that happened in the recording when he and the other elders watched it. But even if he is curious he still didn't dare to raise any questions since the Emperor seemed to be engrossed in the content of the recording.

As for the recording, it is about the commotion that happened at the Center of the Demon King Forest when Luo Yong tried to move up his cultivation level. And of course, it is also that time when Shu Feng killed all the present hostile cultivators including the Outer Elder of the Azure Dragon Sect.
