Before long, Shui Wuya arrived at the Shui Hall below the Tian Shui Pool, bringing Wang Dong'er with him.

As for Shui Yuancheng and Shui Xingtian, Shui Wuya did not let them follow. It wasn't because he didn't trust them, but because the fewer people who knew about the existence of the Ice God Mirror, the less likely it would be detected by the Divine Realm.

Inside the main hall, Wang Dong'er was placed on the ground by Bai Shan. Shui Wuya immediately released a wisp of spiritual energy to awaken Wang Dong'er's consciousness.

Next, Shui Wuya took out the Ice God Artifact and activated the Ice God Mirror.

"Buzz! ~"

Accompanied by a buzzing sound from the Ice God Mirror, an ethereal image of the Divine Realm appeared in front of Shui Wuya.

In the image, the Divine King Hall of the Divine Realm was shown, with over a hundred deities gathered, and the five Divine Kings seated on their thrones. Shui Bing'er stood alone at the center of the hall.

Seeing this scene, Shui Wuya felt a slight shock.

Could Bing'er be in danger?

"You can see the Divine Realm?!"

At this moment, a sharp voice filled with shock and disbelief came from behind Shui Wuya.

Shui Wuyuan turned slightly to see that Wang Dong'er had awakened from her unconscious state, though her breath and emotions were still quite unstable.

Ignoring Wang Dong'er, Shui Wuya focused again on the scene in the Divine Realm, trying to understand what was happening.

In the Divine Realm, within the Divine King Hall.

"Everyone has witnessed today that the Ice God, as a first-class deity, harbored malicious intent and attacked me while I was injured. According to Divine Realm rules, Shui Bing'er's insubordination must be punished by stripping her of her divine status!"

Tang San, his face dark, was the first to speak, initiating this judgment assembly.

"Tang San, you have repeatedly violated Divine Realm rules, not only interfering with matters of the lower realm but also planning to go there yourself. According to the rules, you should not only be stripped of your divine status but also subjected to the divine fire punishment!"

Shui Bing'er retorted with disdain, unfazed by Tang San's accusation.

Previously, an intense battle had erupted between Shui Bing'er and Tang San. Failing to subdue Shui Bing'er, Tang San used his privilege as a Divine King to initiate this judgment assembly.

"Shui Bing'er, stop your unreasonable arguments. Today's assembly is solely to judge you. Other matters will be discussed later!"

Tang San, full of authority, attempted to suppress Shui Bing'er with his Divine King status.

His confidence stemmed from his previous use of this tactic against Shui Bing'er. Although he had never been able to truly punish her due to the interference of other Divine Kings, he had managed to confine her in the Ice God Palace for a few days each time.

This time, Tang San had the same goal. If the assembly voted in favor, he could use the power of the Divine Realm's central system to imprison Shui Bing'er in the Ice God Palace for several days.

During that time, he could break the ice and snow seal on Douluo Star and go to the lower realm to check on Wang Dong'er's condition!

"Ridiculous. As an enforcer, you are breaking the law yourself. Tang San, if it weren't for the protection of the previous Asura God, you would already be a pile of bones in a tomb!"

Shui Bing'er sneered, exposing Tang San's past without mercy.

Tang San's face turned red with rage, and his eyes blazed with fury.

At this moment, one of the five Divine Kings, the Destruction God King, finally spoke.

"The Ice God attacked a Divine King, which is indeed an act of insubordination. However, your intent to interfere with the lower realm again also violates the Divine Realm rules, Tang San."

The God of Destruction's voice was low and emotionless, yet it struck at the heart of the matter.

"Indeed, our Divine Realm has always prioritized peace. Punishing the Ice God so harshly is excessive; it would be better to mitigate the situation."

The God of Life echoed this sentiment.

The new Evil God King and Good God King, having recently assumed their positions, exchanged glances but remained silent.

"The two Divine Kings have valid points. However, Shui Bing'er's rebellion cannot go unpunished. I propose we use the power of the Divine Realm's central system to imprison her in the Ice God Palace for half a month as punishment."

Tang San took the opportunity to follow the same strategy as before.

Hearing this, a cold glint flashed in Shui Bing'er's eyes. Tang San's proposal reminded her of a similar incident sixteen years ago.

Back then, if Tang San hadn't imprisoned her with the central system's power, her family wouldn't have suffered such a catastrophe!

Among the hundred or so deities present, most remained expressionless, having grown accustomed to Tang San and Shui Bing'er's ongoing feud over the thousands of years. They didn't take the trial seriously, knowing it would likely end with Tang San using his power to confine Shui Bing'er in the Ice God Palace for a few days.

However, an unexpected event occurred moments later.

Dai Mubai, one of the legendary Shrek Seven Monsters from ten thousand years ago and now the God of War, was incited by Shui Bing'er's words. Enraged, he leaped from the judgment seat to attack her directly.

"Stop!"

At the critical moment, another figure rushed out from the judgment seat—none other than Feng Xiaotian, the Wind God.

Appearing in front of Shui Bing'er, Feng Xiaotian waved his embroidered robe, unleashing a powerful gust that sent Dai Mubai flying!

"Dai Mubai, ten thousand years ago, you and your companions were cowardly, barely surviving to attain godhood. Are you now planning to break the divine rules too?"

Dai Mubai crashed into the rear of the Divine King Hall. Feng Xiaotian, with a slight smile, mocked him mercilessly.

Witnessing this, the deities recalled the Shrek Seven Monsters' history, and many couldn't help but feel a tinge of contempt.

"That's right. Ten thousand years ago, the Ice God exterminated Tang San's soul. If not for the Asura God's intervention, Tang San wouldn't have his Divine King position today."

"Furthermore, even after his resurrection, Tang San didn't dare oppose the Ice God. He and the other six waited until the Ice God ascended before assuming their godhood. Have you all forgotten?"

Not long after Feng Xiaotian's words, another deity spoke up, their sharp remarks directed at Tang San and Dai Mubai.

"Fire God, don't think that just because you're a first-class deity, I won't dare take action against you!"

At this point, Ma Hongjun, another of the Shrek Seven Monsters, stood up from the judgment seat, aiming his ire at the Fire God.

As more deities joined the fray, the Divine King Hall descended into chaos.

Meanwhile, in the Shui Hall on Douluo Star, Wang Dong'er, recently awakened, was stunned by the scenes unfolding in the Divine King Hall.

"This can't be true. They're talking nonsense. My father could never be that kind of person. How could he be defeated by the Ice God?"

Wang Dong'er, her belief system crumbling, stared in disbelief at the Divine King Hall's image.

Shui Wuya, in contrast, remained remarkably calm. He had already guessed that scenes like those in the Divine King Hall had played out numerous times over the millennianls.

Given this, he was no longer worried about Shui Bing'er's safety. Instead, he found himself intrigued by the possibility of killing Tang San ten thousand years ago.
