Jin Rou sneered. Of course, this bunch would dare to make things difficult for him. After all, they had an ace card that could threaten him. Whichever, he wasn't threatened or anything as he said filled with condemnation, "Looks like the great Court Council is finally revealing its true fangs to the people who just protected them. Do you really think that just because you don't want me to enter, I'm going to stand here or turn my back?"

"Your Majesty, please consider the things as of now." The guard was still calm, albeit nervous a bit, "As of now, your mother is okay and healthy. You don't have to worry about anything. So please heed my advice, return from whence you came and relax."

"It seems that your council is really not giving me any face, just using you a guard to talk and hinder me here." Jin Rou couldn't help but smile coldly. That smile instantly sent shivers down the spine of the guard, "Whether my grandmother is okay or not, I'm going to decide it myself. Now, I'm giving you one last chance. Open the gate or I'll do it myself. Of course, I will not be polite if I do it."

"This is the Court Council, Your Majesty. You can't just do what you want here although you are the overlord. We still have some says about the matters regarding politics." The guard started to sweat. He was tightly gripping his spear, ready to enter battle anytime from now.

"Since it's like this, don't blame me for being rude." Jin Rou didn't mind the comment of the other party and instantly moved.

"Boom!" Jin Rou sent countless dao particles towards the large black gate and it instantly exploded.

The guard was caught off guard and was thrown away by several miles, severely injured. He didn't expect that Jin Rou would dare to cross the line right in their territory!

"Court Council? Just insects right before my eyes." Jin Rou turned towards the guard and smiled with a colder expression, "Watch your pride being trampled down by me here."

---

As soon as Jin Rou appeared inside, thousands of arrows rushed towards him. It seemed that the council was already prepared for his attack.

Jin Rou activated his temporal space and used it as a barrier against these arrows.

"Boom!" Jin Rou waved his hands and sent dao particles once again, completely decimating everything here at the entrance court of the Court Council.

Jin Rou walked casually, after. His eyes fixated to all the things related to this council. He was finding some clues as to where the door was supposed to be.

Currently, he was in a courtyard and the enemy had successfully hid their doors.

"Little tricks." Of course, how could this be effective to Jin Rou? After several seconds, he immediately found it and sent a lightning capable of destroying multitudes of heavens.

"Boom!" The explosion was more severe than what the council had expected. It made the whole building shook violently with cracks all around the place.

After which, Jin Rou entered the door and didn't waste time. And right after entering it, what met him was a cruel situation which made him almost lose control.

He was now in the deepest room of the council. Perhaps the council members made it this way to cut their losses short. After all, if Jin Rou continued to destroy, their building wouldn't take it.

This room was like a big judgement hall, with dim lights around the place. The core members of the council were also present with black clocks hiding their faces. What was the upsetting part was that behind them, in the middle, was Yanlu Rou being shackled in all fours with obvious injuries around her body.

It looked like the council members had taken their time torturing the old woman.

The temperature of the room suddenly turned very very cold. Jin Rou looked at these five council elders with raging eyes and said, "Good! Good! It looks like you had fun making my grandmother suffer, didn't you?"

Jin Rou couldn't almost keep his emotions in check. The rage and hatred he was feeling was rummaging deep inside him and wanted to go out. However, he needed to keep his rationality at all times. He couldn't let this people get the better of him. After all, who knew if it was their scheme from the very beginning?

"Your Majesty, you have seriously did a serious crime that is worth of thousand punishments." The leader of the five elders said, "Trespassing and destroying things in our place and hurting people, the consequences will not be very light. However, I can help you lighten it if you surrender now."

"You bunch of old bastards are still blabbering about punishments and whatnot?" Jin Rou laughed and said, "I am the Celestial King, if there is someone to punish people here. That should be me punishing you ingrates with death."

"Your Majesty's words are incorrect." The leader said with a calm tone, "The court is made to uphold justice. If we will talk about weights here, our words are heavier than Your Majesty's. After all, unless you have our approval, you will never be the overlord. So strictly speaking, we are the ones who put you there."

"Laughable. What a joke." Jin Rou sneered, "Do you really think that if not because of my grandmother having ties with your late ancestor, your council will still remain existing here? You bunch have been trying to oust our family to replace us. Your high ambitions have made you this way."

The leader of the council elders couldn't comment about this. It was a history of the distant past, so he naturally avoided it," Your Majesty, that doesn't change the fact about your wrongs right now."

"I am the only who can decide what is right and wrong. Of course, if you aren't convinced, come at me. If you can defeat me, then you can have the overlord position for your grab." Jin Rou said with a smile. He could already imagine the result of this.
