The prestige and prowess of the Thunder Department, the head of The Eight Departments of The Heavenly Court, is self-evident!
Just partly shown!
Despite this fact, since Lu Wufei had dared to speak, he would not back down.
Even though his actions might likely provoke the heavyweights of the Thunder Department and the Heavenly Court, and anger the West Heaven Ling Mountain.
The Southern Red Sky Fire Light Shocking Thunder Emperor, however, had been too insolent in his speech.
Lu Wufei could endure it no longer!
Indeed, deep down he knew that should he seek his teacher Zhenyuan's assistance, his City of Ten Thousand Demons should remain unharmed, just like Lion Camel Country.
Yet even his teacher's intervention in such a matter would cost something, a face, perhaps.
Lu Wufei was loath to trouble his teacher over this issue.
Besides, he knew full well.
It's a world of the survival of the fittest!
