Chapter 1994: Chapter 1940-1941: Pang Hong Takes Action, Clouds of Suspicion Thickening

“To assess an opponent’s true level by their exhibited battle prowess, that is indeed a good method. However, this battle prowess is not eternally fixed; on the contrary, it fluctuates greatly, and no warrior can guarantee that their displayed battle strength is always at its peak every time.” Yu Zhenzi said softly.

Realm and battle prowess are never the same thing; Realm is the cumulative process of a person’s cultivation, as long as one doesn’t take shortcuts or exploit loopholes, stepping steadily forward, the Realm becomes the most tangible thing and generally doesn’t weaken.

But in truth, battle prowess is based on the Realm, showcasing all mastered powers, filled with various probabilities during this process, even divine abilities, the sequence of moves, facing different opponents, all exhibit differently.

The Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch holds the God-beating Whip, this innately suppresses the Heavenly Court Gods, meaning any Heavenly Court God facing it would be inevitably suppressed unless they could completely resist the whip’s effects.

However, at this moment, the opponent is Zhu Jiuyin, this Zhu Jiuyin Ancestor Witch has no Divine Position and is not a part of the Heavenly Court Gods, which means for the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch the once unrivaled God-beating Whip has lost its greatest function, at best can be considered a powerful Immortal Artifact, maybe even less.

From the current state of battle, the opponent is clearly at ease, can still split attention elsewhere, paying heed to Ju Mang Ancestor’s side, this just shows a marked difference.

“Now that the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch has fallen to a disadvantage, unable to exert power, you, the True God of the Thunder Department, should not sit idly by.” Pei Xuanjing said smilingly to Pang Hong.

He conceived the idea of having Pang Hong take action, but not in the capacity of Shenxiao Sect Leader or his disciple, rather in the capacity of the True God of Thunder Department, master of Shenxiao House of Jade Purity.

Don’t overlook this identity; Pang Hong as the True God of Thunder Department, master of Shenxiao House of Jade Purity, ranks among the top gods even within the Heavenly Court Gods.

Additionally, the Thunder Department inherently holds the duty of subjugating the rebellious, over the years he has often dispatched Thunder Department gods to accompany the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch to punish some gods who broke the Heavenly Rules, the reason for not acting personally being merely their lack of strength.

Since the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch now faces difficulty in upholding the Heavenly Court’s prestige, naturally, he as the True God of Thunder Department cannot ignore the situation.

“Me?” Pang Hong’s expression was full of surprise; he hadn’t expected his master would have him act at this time.

Even if he indicates acting in the capacity of the True God of Thunder Department, other parties definitely won’t see it purely that way; they will also consider it as the will of the Shenxiao Sect, even the master’s will.

“Go forth, considering you’re already a Quasi-Taoist, maybe by crossing swords with another Quasi-Taoist, you might find a chance to break through to Taoist Monarch.” Pei Xuanjing said smilingly.

“Master is right, the disciple shall proceed!” Pang Hong was momentarily stunned, yet instantly comprehended.

To say nothing of others, witnessing these individuals ascend one by one to Taoist Monarch, yet he still hasn’t found a breakthrough opportunity, to say Pang Hong isn’t anxious would be false, but no grasp means no grasp; he knows this can’t be rushed.

Perhaps, as master said, confronting a strong opponent could provide some gains, after all, he has seldom acted over the years.

And given that it’s master instructing him, there’s even less need to worry about misunderstandings, master has it all covered.

Seeing Pang Hong depart, Yu Zhenzi asked somewhat puzzled: “Do we need to express our stance this early?”

Maybe others are unclear, but seeing Pei Xuanjing’s approach, Yu Zhenzi could see it clearly, it wasn’t just to hone Pang Hong; it was demonstrating an attitude, that Shenxiao Sect hasn’t formed an alliance with Witch Deity Teaching for joint advances and retreats.

Originally, having Pang Hong convey a message for the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch to act, Yu Zhenzi thought such action was completely sufficient, able to send a signal outward, telling others Shenxiao Sect’s ties with Witch Deity Teaching aren’t so close, to prevent misjudgments.

But now having Pang Hong act directly, this is not merely conveying information for them to comprehend; rather it cuts directly from Witch Deity Teaching, telling them their methods are theirs, not endorsed nor recognized, even expressing opposition.

Is such an approach too blunt perhaps?

Yu Zhenzi thought that from their position, there was no need to make so many concessions, strong entities needn’t explain too much to the weak.

“If not doing so, others perhaps really wouldn’t act.” Pei Xuanjing shook his head and said.

When he had Pang Hong convey the message for the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch to act, actually he already had this idea, because he knew the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch wouldn’t be Zhu Jiuyin’s match.

If Pei Xuanjing didn’t want to intervene in this matter, he wouldn’t have sent Pang Hong to convey the message, because given the character of the Law Enforcement Heavenly Monarch, even without the message, he would inevitably choose to act.

Pei Xuanjing’s reason for such an action was to express his attitude, more so to seize this opportunity to intervene, letting others see Shenxiao Sect and Witch Deity Teaching aren’t of the same path, both making a cut.

“Witch Deity Teaching…” Yu Zhenzi was shocked internally, couldn’t help but exclaim softly.
