However, the Law Enforcers naturally would not give any answers to the Guards.

The Emissary couldn’t casually kill the Guards, but the Law Enforcer was indeed the true Emperor here, the ruler of all beings in this realm. If he wanted to kill someone, he could.

Then, he began to slowly pace in front of these Guards, observing each one of them.

After all, his cultivation was far superior to that of the Guards, so none of the Guards dared to meet his gaze!

Seeing his gaze approaching, they quickly avoided eye contact. Even so, the Guards could feel that piercing gaze, as if all their secrets were exposed before him.

Soon, his figure arrived in front of Ye Luo, and he stopped immediately.

Yet Ye Luo still held his head high, stubbornly maintaining eye contact with him.

After all, there was a gap in strength between Ye Luo and the Law Enforcer. In just a short while, Ye Luo’s body began to tremble, and his mind felt as if it was exploding. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

The disparity in their realms was obvious. Unless Ye Luo revealed all his trump cards, only then could he confront the Law Enforcer.

"Why are you so bold?" the Law Enforcer asked coldly.

At this moment, Ye Luo’s heart was filled with deep grief. It wasn’t just about courage; he already wanted to fight this Law Enforcer.

After all, it was the Law Enforcer who caused the death of those seniors, and the base had declared that there was a power capable of killing this Law Enforcer!

Thus, he hoped the Law Enforcer would make the first move against him.

"Reporting to my lord, I have a clear conscience, why should I bow my head?" Ye Luo replied firmly.

"Oh?" The Law Enforcer looked at him with curiosity.

After a while, the Law Enforcer burst into laughter, "Such a clear conscience, very well, from now on, you will be the Captain of this Guard Squad!"

The listening Guards were so shocked their eyes nearly fell out. Just like that, he became the Captain? Had they known, they would have stared boldly at the Law Enforcer too, wouldn’t that have given them all a chance?

However, the expression on Ye Luo’s face remained calm, neither happy nor sad.

"Thank you for your favor, my lord!" Yet Ye Luo still bowed respectfully.

The Law Enforcer nodded slightly and walked out.

"Retreat!"

He commanded to the other Emissaries, and his figure disappeared immediately!

Ye Luo squinted his eyes, clenched his fists, as if making a decision, but in the end, he sighed and slowly unclenched his fists.

At this moment, the Law Enforcer and those Emissaries had already vanished from his sight.

"Young Master, let it be!" the Third Princess gently said by his side.

Ye Luo smiled bitterly, "I still couldn’t hold back!"

Before the Third Princess could say more, the Guards were already rushing over to pay their respects. After all, Ye Luo was only a Vice-Captain before, not officially appointed by the Law Enforcer, essentially lacking significant authority, but not anymore; Ye Luo had now become the true Captain of the Guard Squad, with the power to decide the life and death of the Guards!

Of course, this only applied if the Guards made mistakes, but making things difficult for a Guard was no problem at all.

For instance, assigning a Guard to repair the energy shield, or to guard the most dangerous areas!

In short, with Ye Luo’s authority, getting a Guard killed would be an easy feat.

However, Ye Luo wasn’t in the mood to deal with these Guards, only responding briefly before returning to his tent.

Even so, those Guards dared not say much, for Ye Luo was no longer just the Vice-Captain.

In that unique space, several Emissaries surrounded the Law Enforcer, each with a grave expression.

"My lord, why didn’t you execute that Ye Luo earlier? That Guard is clearly problematic!" one of the Emissaries said angrily.

The Law Enforcer nodded slightly, "It’s fine, this young boy still has a use for me. You all return and await orders!"

Hearing this, the Emissaries flew out. Naturally, these people were confidants of the Law Enforcer.

After they left, the Law Enforcer’s face turned grim as he punched heavily, causing the entire space to shake violently.

"Damn it, what kind of power is backing him, making me feel such dread? What kind of strength does he have to threaten my life!" the Law Enforcer roared lowly.

Just previously, when facing Ye Luo, an unexpected fear had surged in his heart! He had distinctly felt a threat to his life, and that threat had come from Ye Luo! This was why he hurriedly promoted Ye Luo to Captain and then left in haste.

He sensed the killing intent in Ye Luo’s eyes, had he delayed any longer, he might have met his end there! This feeling made him extremely frustrated.

"It’s a tremendous insult, but don’t worry, I won’t let you die so easily; I will torment you slowly!" The Law Enforcer’s face twisted into a snarl.

Back in the tent, Ye Luo felt like something was missing. Yu Jizi had been with him day and night, and later Old Monster Ding had moved in, but now it was just Ye Luo and the Third Princess left.

"Ye Luo, don’t be saddened, we have more important matters to attend to!" the Third Princess spoke softly by his side.

Ye Luo sighed, "I naturally understand, you need not console me, I’m aware you are perhaps even more upset than I am!"

The Third Princess gave a bitter smile, "Once a teacher, a father for life. I will avenge my mentor in this life!"

Ye Luo nodded slowly, "Indeed, that goes without saying!"

"Young Master, how about I give you a massage?" the Third Princess suddenly suggested.

Ye Luo shook his head, "Inappropriate, your spirit is damaged now, you should rest well!"

"Young Master, only after exhausting myself can I truly rest!"

Ye Luo understood, and then sighed, "If that’s the case, so be it!"

Then, she began massaging Ye Luo again.

In truth, Ye Luo suffered quite a loss this time. Not to mention anything else, the seed of the Thunder Principle he had was mostly depleted, and even after reclaiming it into his body, it felt distant and foreign, the previous sense of being one with it had vanished completely.

Ye Luo understood that unless a miracle occurred, this Thunder Principle seed would slowly wither away, and the path he had comprehended would disappear along with the decline of the Thunder Principle.

After all, what he had understood was a Minor Path, based on some Principle strength, and when the Principle strength dispersed, the Minor Path naturally ceased to exist.

Gradually, the sorrow and tension in Ye Luo’s heart dissipated entirely; the Third Princess’ enchanting hands moved over his body, bringing Ye Luo immense relief.

Ye Luo even felt a sense of addiction.
