In July, Gu Ji was appointed as the Vice Inspector of the Ducal Palace of the northwest Dao to investigate the recent upheaval. He was granted full authority over all matters, and was assisted by the Brocade Guards and those sent by the Six Gates.
In August, Gu Ji, serving as Vice Inspector, summoned the major forces of the northwest Dao in the capital city of the West, to inquire about the reasons behind the northwest Dao rebellion.
In September, Gu Ji identified the Diamond Gate as being suspected of colluding with the Mire Sect and summoned people from the Diamond Gate for questioning. The members of the Diamond Gate rejected the summons and the Lord of the Diamond Gate evaded the interrogation.
On September 15, Gu Ji ordered a coalition of the Six Gates and various martial artist from the northwest Dao to jointly suppress the traitorous Diamond Gate to rectify the martial world.
The main martial artist factions of northwest Dao, led by Li family of Longxi and Tie Qianshan, the leader of Tie Sect, along with the skilled fighters of Six Gates and Brocade Guards, penetrated the mountain gate of Diamond Gate, capturing all disciples. Any rebel was killed without mercy.
The Lord of Diamond Gate cultivated the Dragon Elephant Art to the ninth level, his unrivaled stance led the elders and disciples to break out of the encirclement, their whereabouts unknown.
Thus, the long-standing Diamond Gate that dominated the northwest Dao for many years was destroyed, and its original interests were divided amongst various factions led by the Li family and the Tie Sect.
In a stronghold of Mire Sect, Zhao Baiyang was holding a book, at this moment devoid of any majesty that he would usually possess as the supreme ruler of the martial world, appearing more like a refined scholar.
The rebellion of the northwest Dao was Zhao Baiyang’s meticulous planning over the years, yet this failure didn’t seem to have affected him at all.
Since returning from the northwest Dao, Zhao Baiyang has secluded himself in this stronghold, seemingly unmindful of the affairs of the martial world.
