<h4>Chapter 463: Chapter 462: The Su Family of Yanbei, Even Gods and Demons Retreat</h4>


    Su Yang said helplessly, "The Law Enforcers of the Heavenly Pce are actually selected from among the Terrestrial Immortals below."


    "What do you mean?" Su Yang asked curiously.


    Ye Jiansheng said, "Every ten years, the top three from the Heavenly List, the top three of the Dark List, and second to fourth of the Shadow List are chosen. Then, three individuals are elected from among them to enter the Heavenly Pce and be Law Enforcers of the Heavenly Pce!"


    "What?" Su Yang was astonished. "The Law Enforcers of the Heavenly Pce are actually selected from the Terrestrial Immortals below?"


    "Only a part are," Ye Jiansheng said. "The other part still consists of the original members of the Heavenly Pce."


    "Then... have those chosen Law Enforcers ever shared information about the inside of the Heavenly Pce with the people below?" Su Yang asked.


    "No!" Ye Jiansheng shook his head. "However, every Law Enforcer who is chosen sees a rapid increase in strength. For a Terrestrial Immortal, being selected to be a Law Enforcer for the Heavenly Pce is a very honorable thing!"


    Suddenly remembering what Ye Jiansheng had previously said to Gwu Jihan, Su Yang said, "No wonder you told Gwu Jihanst time that you were almost there. You’re now fourth on the Heavenly List, not in the top three, so you don’t have the chance to be selected for the Heavenly Pce this time!"


    Ye Jiansheng smiled faintly and shook his head. "If I wish to, I still have a chance by defeating the one who is third on the Heavenly List now!"


    "But you still have to be able to defeat him!" Su Yang said.


    "Hehe..." Ye Jiansheng continued to smile serenely. "But I mustn’t do so before the affairs of my family are settled!"


    "What affairs of your family?" Su Yang frowned. "Is that why you’re so eager to marry off your daughter?"


    "It’s not just that!" Ye Jiansheng shook his head. "Do you know, every Terrestrial Immortal represents a powerful protection for a family. The Ye Family’s current state is inseparably linked to my strength. Over the years as my strength improved, I inevitably made many enemies. If I were chosen for the Heavenly Pce, then the Ye Family would lose my protection. If my enemies sought their revenge, could the Ye Family still resist them?"


    "But if you be a Law Enforcer, couldn’t you still offer protection?" Su Yang said in exasperation. "You coulde down and protect them anytime!"


    "You’re not understanding my point..." Ye Jiansheng said. "A Law Enforcer can only manage the Terrestrial Immortals. They can’t deal with others. And my enemies may not all be Terrestrial Immortals!"


    "This..." Su Yang was dumbfounded. "Do Law Enforcers have so many restrictions?"


    Ye Jiansheng nodded.


    Taking a deep breath, Su Yang said gravely, "So, you’re looking for a powerful marital alliance for Ye Wantong to shield the Ye Family?"


    "Hehe..." Ye Jiansheng smiled lightly. "You’ve finally understood what I’m getting at!"


    Su Yang was silent for a while before asking, "Can that Su Tianyu’s family really protect the Ye Family?"


    Ye Jiansheng took a deep breath and said, "The Su Family of Yanbei is a ce even Law Enforcers cannot intrude upon!"


    "What?" Su Yang’s eyes widened. Having just discussed how formidable the Law Enforcers were, why had such a statement suddenly emerged?


    "The Law Enforcers of the Heavenly Pce cannot cover every ce in the world. There are always some ces that lie beyond the reach of the Heavenly Pce," Ye Jiansheng said softly. "The Su Family of Yanbei is one such ce."


    "Hold on!" Su Yang said. "What do you mean by that? Are those ces beyond the reach of the Heavenly Pce because there aren’t enough hands to cover them, or... is it because the Law Enforcers of the Heavenly Pce dare not enforce thew within the Su Family’s domain?"


    Ye Jianshengughed lightly. "Did you notice what I just said?"


    "What did you say?" Su Yang asked.


    Ye Jiansheng said, "I mentioned the top three of the Heavenly List, the top three of the Dark List, and the second to fourth of the Shadow List... "


    Suddenly, Su Yang eximed, "Hey, why is it from second to fourth on the Shadow List? Why isn’t it the top three anymore?"


    "Because the first ce on the Shadow List is an assassin!" Ye Jiansheng exined. "The assassin has been the undisputed number one on the Shadow List for thirty-six years. When he first appeared, he directly killed the then number one, bing the new number one. Afterward, the Law Enforcers from the Heavenly Pce found him and invited him to participate in the selection for Law Enforcers. But he declined."


    Su Yang was astonished. "Why would he refuse such an opportunity?"


    Ye Jiansheng smiled. "To refuse participation in the selection is to defy the rules of the Heavenly Pce. Those Law Enforcers wanted to forcefully take him for the selection, but the three who found him were all in by him."


    "What?" Su Yang was shocked. "He killed Law Enforcers... what... what is he trying to do?"


    "Later, the Heavenly Pce was enraged and sent out Law Enforcers seven times in a row to besiege him. A total of one hundred and three Law Enforcers died in the process, yet the assassin remained unharmed," Ye Jiansheng exined. "Eventually, the affair ended there. The Heavenly Pce never troubled the assassin again, and the top three of the Shadow List changed to the second to the fourth ces!"


    Su Yang was dumbstruck. Such an assassin was too formidable, wasn’t he? One person against the entire Heavenly Pce, and to the extent that the Heavenly Pce no longer dared confront him. How extraordinary must his strength be? Could there really be such an invincible individual in this world?


    "Although the Heavenly Pce is the most powerful, if they need to pay too great a price to deal with one person, they will stillpromise and make concessions!" Ye Jiansheng said. "For instance, the assassin, for instance, the Su Family."


    "Does the Su Family also have individuals with such formidable power?" Su Yang inquired.


    "The Su Family of Yanbei, where gods and demons retreat!" Ye Jiansheng stated. "The individuals in the Su Family may not have the strength of the assassin individually, but there are many Terrestrial Immortals in the Su Family. At its peak, there were more than two hundred Terrestrial Immortals. Although nearly half of them were lost in a massive battle seventeen years ago, they remain a force to be reckoned with and still one of the seven Superlunary ns that even the Heavenly Pce cannot interfere with!"


    Taking a deep breath, Su Yang spoke in a serious tone, "The seven Superlunary ns? You mean there are six other families, simr to the Su Family, that are also beyond the reach of the Heavenly Pce?"


    "Not just that, but there are also some powerful sects!" Ye Jiansheng said. "For example, the Martial God tform, the Hidden Sword Pavilion, and Lingxiao Peak!"


    "From what you’re saying, many people are out of the Heavenly Pce’s control!" Su Yang said. "Then the control of the Heavenly Pce is not that extraordinary!"


    "Not necessarily!" Ye Jiansheng shook his head. "What I’ve mentioned are, after all, the minority. The Heavenly Pce controls eighty percent of the Terrestrial Immortals in the world. Moreover, I’ve only said that these forces are not under the control of the Heavenly Pce, not that they are stronger than the Heavenly Pce. It’s just that the Heavenly Pce has to pay a certain price to eliminate them. Therefore, the Heavenly Pce has madepromises and concessions in these areas! In fact, if the Heavenly Pce is willing—if they are ready to pay these prices—then there is no one in the world who can escape the control of the Heavenly Pce!"
