The battle ended, and Immortal Yuan Lu was taken to the Sky-north Prison.
Even as the most notorious prison in the Four Seas and Nine Continents, it's rare to hold a convict of the Eighth Realm. Catching the leader of the demonic Western Sea Sect significantly boosted public morale during these turbulent times in the Nine States.
The Sea Clan and Shu Mountain would also participate in the subsequent interrogations.
Every cultivator at the Eighth Realm could be considered a treasure trove. A lot of information could be unearthed from them, so they couldn't merely be left to the Imperial Court.
As for the Sea Navy officer who was killed, the location of his secret realm and treasure would be jointly searched by a team and the Sea Clan. In this regard, a dead Tianyuan cultivator had less value than a living one.
Ancestor Wu Chao would naturally take care of the matters concerning the Ruins Shenxu. With him around, the Southern Sea would not descend into chaos.
