Chapter 683: A Dense Multitude of Powerhouses (III)

Li Hao looked at him and smiled, suddenly recalling something. “I almost forgot about another letter of judgment!”

Yellow Dragon blinked, there was another?

The young man took out another document.

“Yellow Dragon, first deputy director of the Night Watchers, deputy of the Inspectorate, and commander of the north, is guilty of slaughtering innocents and firing city annihilation missiles at will. He has caused the displacement of tens of millions of civilians and the deaths of millions. He shelters all manner of wrongdoing and breaks the law knowing full well its definition. That is an additional layer of crime!” Li Hao sighed. “I don’t wish to read out all of your crimes, there’s too many!

“You collude with the three evil organizations and pirates, harm innocents, and stand as an umbrella of protection for crime. The key is that you started a war with the three great organizations, but didn’t eliminate them. You haphazardly fired off city annihilation missiles instead! You are guilty of too many crimes to record!”

“What right do you have to pass judgment on me?!” demanded an apoplectic Yellow Dragon. “I am your superior officer, not to mention that the crimes are fake! Even if you think I am guilty, the matter should be handed over to the nine ministries...”

“No no no, you forget that you are a superhuman, so the Night Watchers can pass judgment on you.”

“It is never your turn to judge me!” Yellow Dragon roared. Li Hao was crazy! He wanted to sentence a deputy director!

Yellow Dragon was truly part of the senior executives of the dynasty, not one of the minor nobles kneeling the plaza. Those amounted to the ranking officer of a military troop at most, but Yellow Dragon was very, very lofty. He was incredibly strong as a metamorphosis expert. He fell short only when compared to someone at the level of the nine ministers. Otherwise, he was a preeminent heavyweight with an untouchable status!

And Li Hao wanted to pass judgment on him! How ludicrous!

The young man laughed and took out a seal. “Of course I have the right. Director Yao does not feel up to the task lately, so he temporarily gave me the official seal for safekeeping. I oversee all of the Night Watchers at the moment, you are no exception!

“I hereby sentence Yellow Dragon to death!” He slammed the seal down, prompting a look of wide-eyed horror from the man.

Yao Si! Damn it, what did Yao Si want to do?! How could he have given the seal to Li Hao?? Had the brat forced the old man’s hand, or was it the old man himself who could no longer sit still and wanted to bring about Yellow Dragon’s death?

He wanted to break into a berserk rage, but Li Hao’s voice sounded in his ears. The voice sounded in many people’s hearts, in all of Skystar City.

“That a law enforcer breaks the law means that Yellow Dragon shall be executed on the spot! Let his death serve as a warning to others!” Li Hao seemed to transform into a ferocious tiger and pounce before some could react!

Off to the side, He Yong soundlessly erupted with blood qi as well and blasted out with a punch! Yellow Dragon snarled, also thrusting his fist out as he howled like a dragon. The skies darkened!

Li Hao wanted to execute him?? He was crazy!!

Qi Zhao wanted to help Yellow Dragon when Li Hao’s voice echoed again. “Those who attack law enforcers will be shown no mercy!”

Qi Zhao paused, then grit his teeth and made his move all the same. Shown no mercy? I’d like to see you try!

“Kill! Kill the brat!” Yellow Dragon howled. Some Novas stirred with action on the Night Watcher side.

Off in the distance, frowning figures quickly materialized. They hadn’t anticipated Li Hao acting ahead of time, and the key thing was, he wanted to kill Yellow Dragon. This was very surprising and forced their hand. They would turn into laughingstock if Yellow Dragon died in front of them. As for some of the Silver Moon martial masters that’d yet to arrive... they couldn’t wait any longer!

A dozen figures appeared; their presences crisscrossed the land.

“Li Hao, you slaughter innocents and collude with the three great organizations to kill loyal subjects. You will not be permitted to further draw breath!” one of them announced simply. There was no need for evidence, this was their greeting.

The dozen flew toward the northern gate. Li Hao turned to scan them—there weren’t many Arcanus, just five members. The rest were easily identified as metamorphosis. The presences of Arcanus were extremely violent as their cultivation levels were not stable. Power swept through the land and turned Skystar City into a land of death!

Yellow Dragon was overjoyed by the development. Heh, you would’ve lived a bit longer if you hadn’t attacked me. Since you have a death wish, these guys aren’t willing to wait either. Prepare to die!

Li Hao sighed and looked into the distance. “You surely think highly of me. Five Arcanus and seven metamorphosis... this is quite the effort to kill me!”

Multiple powerhouses walked through the sky, in no hurry to conclude their business.

“You’ve arrived at Skystar City for just a few days before initiating mass slaughter and colluding with the three evil organizations,” a wizened old man said slowly. “You frame loyal subjects and condemn them to death. When it comes to you, we naturally have to ensure your demise so that the evil elements in the capital know the meaning of fear!”

“Who are you?” Wholly unafraid, Li Hao smiled at the old man. “Since you are here to kill me, you must have a name. You have mine, so who are you? What right do you have to pass judgment on me?

“I am the Skystar vice commander, so it can’t be any random passerby who is sent to kill me. If so, things will be difficult in the future. Being an official will not be a good career as one might die at any time!”

There were twelve people—eight men, four women. They were all of older age. The old man stood at the very front and answered calmly, “Hu Xiao of the Ministry of the Judiciary. I was the previous minister and am still the honorary minister. Am I qualified to sentence you?”

Li Hao smiled and nodded. He really had lured an old fart out of hiding! He looked at the other four Arcanus.

“First deputy minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs!” a woman said indifferently.

“Director of the Monster Spirit Division from the Ministry of Foreign Relations.” That was an old man in opulent robes.

“Commander of the Skystar Army from the Ministry of Armed Forces!”

“First deputy minister of the Ministry of Commerce!”

The five Arcanus introduced themselves, revealing their identities as people of note. It was one previous generation minister leading four deputy ministers. The deputy ministers looked to have just broken through to Arcanus. None of them were from the three great organizations, seven divine mountains, or pirates of the four seas. They were all from the authorities!

Plainly, they were still taking their dignity into account. Li Hao looked into the distance without saying a word. There... presences rose into the sky. He could even sense the old duke from last time.

There were more Arcanus there, but not for him. They were waiting for the Silver Moon martial masters that were coming to support him. The old duke wasn’t the only Arcanus. Since they were to fight a cohort of Silver Moon powerhouses, multiple Arcanus presences rose into the sky.

The seven metamorphoses in front of Li Hao were either from the ministries or royal family.

“Have the Ministry of Administration or Ministry of Examinations sent anyone?” Li Hao asked them instead of attacking Yellow Dragon.

“Liu Qi of the Ministry of Examinations!” smiled a middle-aged man with a nod. “My pleasure, Li Hao!”

“Xie Yong of the Ministry of Administration!” said another man with some regret. “The Ministry of Administration thinks that certain matters can be discussed and negotiated, that might is not necessarily the answer. But Commander Li looks to be... obsessed!”

“How about the royal family?”

No one responded. They didn’t seem to have sent anyone.

Li Hao laughed. Was no royal representative here, or were they hiding, waiting for the best opportunity?

Five Arcanus and seven metamorphoses had walked out of the seven ministries. This was a significant investment. Just those four newly ascended Arcanus must have taken a lot of resources. One could determine that from a quick look at their presences—they still fluctuated uncertainly.

Off to the side, He Yong took in a deep breath and looked at Li Hao, then at Hou Xiaochen. They were in trouble now!

Those outside likely wouldn’t be able to join them. The old duke from the Xus was out there and he could also sense the presence of the lord of Buddha Mountain. This was an old acquaintance who’d likely been summoned to hold off Yuan Shuo or Sky Sword. He was a veteran heavyweight.

He Yong’s information network was more comprehensive than Li Hao’s. He could also sense the presence of the three elders of Red Moon. They... they... also seemed to be Arcanus!

Incredible!

There were five Arcanus among those people alone, and there would be more than that...

He Yong smiled ruefully. Aw fuck, does the whole world want to kill Li Hao? More than ten Arcanus, a bunch of metamorphoses... The kid was dead without a doubt!

He Yong wouldn’t necessarily kill one Arcanus even if he erupted with everything he had. Hou Xiaochen was better off than him, but not by much. They were done for!

Granted, he wasn’t afraid of anything at this step. The Night Watcher powerhouses in the distances registered the changing circumstances with ashen faces. There were so many powerhouses! Too many!

Big Eyes and the other two also watched with dropped jaws, scanning the area around them and then at the sea. They knew that all sides would send people to kill Li Hao, but they hadn’t anticipated that the scene would look like this!

“There\'s... two digits worth of Arcanus... here” Big Eyes transmitted wryly to the other two. She hadn’t expected this, she truly hadn’t! She’d thought that there might be three... five... But five alone had come from the nine ministries!
