Somewhere on the Lower realm of Heaven, within a huge hall was a grand-looking throne where a voluptuous beauty was sitting haughtily on it, crossing her legs together.

"Empress Luo, reports were stating that there were two accounts of breach made to the Heaven's Will on the Tian Continent. The first one was unknown, but the mystifying nature of its source, indicates that it is highly likely came from somewhere in the Upper realm." Elder Jun said as he bowed his head.

The Empress was currently watching an image recording of Duan Li's battle with Cao Tengfei while listening to Elder Jun's report.

"Hmm.. If this intervention really came from the Upper realm, then it is already outside of our jurisdiction. Perhaps the Nine High Chancellor would deal with it in one way or another, depending on the severity.." she replied in an indifferent tone.

Inwardly, she could only think of a certain individual that would do this.

Back when she was witnessing personally for Duan Li's advance tribulation, she could sense a very familiar presence coming out from the latter.

In fact, that presence also belongs to someone in the Upper realm, and that person has many track records of being carelessly voyaging throughout the thousand worlds in the mortal realm, in pursuit of something while leaving behind some 'footprints' in his wake.

If the intervention to the Heaven's Will this time around came from that very same person as well, then it makes sense. After all, that would meant that this Duan Li was his son, among the two other children he has in another two worlds..

Just that, he had never intervened directly like this. Usually, Celestial beings like them would empower their children with numerous lifesaving blessings and superior aptitude that would leave the normal genius mortals to dust!

This was further evidenced from the fact that, all legendary figure in the mortal world were usually their offspring in one way or another.

But this time, not only was Duan Li not in any sorts of life-threatening danger, it was instead, during a fight where he clearly would've won even without the added power-ups.

Did that person somehow felt like he should give this particular son of his a better spotlight?

I can never understand what that man is thinking..

The Empress shook her head, "Anyway, what about the second intervention? The voice at the end of this battle was faked.."

Elder Jun swallowed a mouthful of saliva before answering, "Well, after repeatedly tracing back the source.. it actually came from here in the Lower realm.."

The Empress froze and narrowed her eyes, "Who was it?"

Gulp!

"It's.. the source belongs to.. Elder Xiqong!" Elder Jun said while lowering his head to the ground, not daring to look at the Empress directly.

Hearing this, the Empress stood up from her seat.

Clenching her hand into a tight fist, her aura was rising rapidly as bubbles of anger were boiling inside her.

"W-What a diabolical amount of energy.." Elder Jun could hardly breath with the amount of pressure that he was affected with.

"Xiqong Wu.. you dare to besmirch our honor and code as the Heaven's Will committee like this.." she said with a frosty expression.

She then turned to Elder Jun, "Bring him to me!"

"Y-Yes!!" replied Elder Jun before quickly leaving the hall, not daring to waste anymore time.

...

Meanwhile, Duan Li's party were thoroughly excited when their Lord mentioned that he might be able to help them cultivate their second dantian.

"But I might need some more time to devise the actual method, as I only have a few theories on how to do it right now.." Duan Li said.

Based on his knowledge about meridians and medical arts, he could theoretically use his spiritual Qi to guide others to cultivate their second dantian.

But unless he was very sure that there were no risks involved, he would not attempt to do it just yet.

"That's fine! Even if it would take a few years, we could wait!" Shen Murong clenched his fists tight in agitation.

What sorts of possibilities would it open if one were to successfully cultivate their second dantian?

One word; unimaginable!

In fact, it would not be an exageration to say that one would become dragon amongst men once they were able to do it!

After all, there was no living example of a person that had been able to cultivate their other dantian..

Well, except for this Lord of their's of course.

"Oh look, we are already here.. let's get this over with.." Duan Li said as he quickly readied his punch.

Psheww!!

All his followers then suddenly blocked him, as if a squad of suicide martyrs that would stop at nothing to obstruct Duan Li from trying to do whatever it was he was going to do.

"Stop Brother! What do you think you are doing?" Shen Lu said with a pale countenance.

"Huh? What do you mean? Of course I'm going to annihilate those monsters down there.." Duan Li pointed with furrowed brows.

Then, he seemed to realize what was going on based on their expression, "Ahh, I see what this is all about.. Relax! I'm not going to one punch them, those would complicate our allies down there as well, so there is no need to worry.." Duan Li reassured them.

Not that I could do it yet even if I wanted to..

Hearing this, his party immediately sighed in relief.

"Still, let us handle the monsters this time around.. you've already took everything by yourselves last time Brother.." Shen Lu said.

"This.. fine.." Duan Li sighed.

As the rest of them flew down to join the battle, Duan Li was left alone floating with nothing to do.

"Huh? Its you boy! What are you doing here?" a familiar voice spoke out from behind him.

Hearing this familiar voice, Duan Li turned around to find Wang Guozhi swiftly approaching him from a distance.

By the looks of it, it seems that the latter was tasked to hunt any 3 Star monsters that popped out amongst the monster stampede here, judging from that attire of his.

"Eh? Senior Teacher Wang Guozhi, you belonged to the Eighth Squad? I thought you were part of the Recon division.." Duan Li said, and then continued, "The Emperor requested us to divide ourselves to aid both the second and third battle front, that's why I am here with my party.."

Wang Guozhi was surprised when he heard this, he did heard rumors of reports that the First front on the Blastwinter desert was pretty much finished already, but he did not dare to believe that it was truth.

After all, they were dealing with several thousand monsters on each front, so how could they finish so quickly while the other two fronts were still struggling?

Thus, he answered, "Well, I am in both groups, because I'm practically wanted by everyone hahaha! Anyway, you guys really did finish the First front? And you said his majesty requested you guys to come here? What exactly happened?"

Duan Li then retold him all the events that had transpired before, and when Wang Guozhi heard this, his eyes couldn't help but to turn wide in disbelief.

He one punched the monster stampede and annihilated most of them while leaving the majority disabled?

They have competitions to see who would have the rights to eliminate the remaining monsters because they were short on it?

One of the members from the Dark Sect came over with an atrocious name and got beaten to death before disappearing in a sorry state?

Pu!

Is he for real?

Wang Guozhi threw a suspicious look onto Duan Li.

"Nevermind, with the extra help here, we should be finished soon. There were far more fewer 3 Star monsters than expected as well, so this would be easy." he said, quickly dimissing the stories that Duan Li told him.

No matter what, he chose to take the stories with a grain of salt, until it was proven to be true.

They then converse with each other and from this, Duan Li found out that there were only a dozen of casualties so far.

This meant that the counter-attack was largely successful, in that the casualties were only the result from the 3 Star monsters attacking people off-guard.

However, Duan Li felt something was amiss, so he requested for Wang Guozhi to round up the injured and the bodies of the fallen students later on.

The latter was a little bit taken aback by this, but still nodded to it, as Wang Guozhi knew of Duan Li's status as the Imperial Overseer.

"Okay, I'll do that later on. But if I may know the reason why, it would be easier to explain the matter to those people later on.." he asked.

Duan Li were silent for awhile, before telling him his concerns. After which, the other party showed a grim expression and quickly left to gather those people around.

Time was something that those people do not have.
