Jicheng is the only city in Shangqinghe of Jingshan Dao Kingdom. The Qinghe area is divided into Shangqinghe and Xiaqinghe. Shangqinghe is ruled by Jingshan Dao Kingdom, while Xiaqinghe is ruled by Ganzhao Dao Kingdom.

The Taoist Master Taixu of the Jingshan Taoist Kingdom is in charge of the Jicheng Palace, and more than two thousand miles southwest of Jicheng is the Qinghe border pass.

Taoist Taixu specially sent Yunqi to take charge there. This was also intended to train Yunqi and at the same time let him progress quickly so that he could be recognized by the ministers and people of Jingshan Dao.

During these days, Taoist Taixu has become much more pale. Although he is a powerful being in the Second Purity Realm, the things that happened during this period have made him feel extremely tired.

Sometimes he was even a little dazed, and this daze seemed to come from his cultivation of Taoism. He felt that his cultivation seemed to have reached a critical juncture, but it did not feel like he had been promoted to the Three Purities Realm.

That kind of shackles seemed like some kind of opportunity that had arrived, but he was unable to break through it for the time being.

At this time, a senior official came in with a report and presented Fang Jian's file on the case of Prince Yun Hao to Daoist Master Taixu. He then reported, "Your Majesty, the young master has ordered Zhou Jin to be sent to Jicheng for your personal disposal."

Daoist Master Taixu glanced at the scroll, and the contents were all within his grasp. He said calmly, "The contents of this case are extremely clear, as if everything happened right before Captain Fang Jian's eyes."

The senior minister was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Lord, are you saying... Captain Fang Jian fabricated the case?"

"No." Daoist Master Taixu said calmly, "I mean, Captain Fang Jian is a man who is extremely conscientious and responsible."

Shang Qing was startled again, and then Daoist Master Taixu asked, "Where is this Captain Fang Jian?"

Shang Qing quickly reported to Daoist Master Taixu that Yun Qi had instructed Shang Qing Kuai Yu to ask Fang Jian and the others to leave. Daoist Master Taixu said calmly, "This is indeed very arrogant and disrespectful, but as a prince of the Jingshan Dao Kingdom, he has the right to do so."

After saying this, Daoist Master Taixu asked again, "What did he do with those members of the Corrupted Corpse Clan?"

The Shangqing said, "The young master ordered them all to be burned to death. Their souls and bodies were completely burned to ashes."

"Too hasty." Daoist Master Taixu shook his head and said, "He should have done this in front of the people of the country. But now he has executed all those members of the Corrupted Corpse Tribe in a single pass. It will be difficult for the people of the country to calm down their anger without seeing it with their own eyes."

Therefore, Taoist Taixu believed that Yun Qi's behavior was inappropriate. It didn't matter whether the previous rudeness offended Fang Jian. It was harmless for a young man from a first-class country to be arrogant to a young man from a third-class country.

But hastily burning those corpses to death prevents the people from venting their anger, which is not a good thing.

But since it had already been done, Daoist Master Taixu didn't say anything more. Instead, he turned the case file in his hand into ashes and said to the Shangqing, "Bring Zhou Jin here. I want to see him."

"Yes." Shangqing bowed and accepted the order.

Soon, the Shangqing brought Zhou Jin into the hall. At this time, Zhou Jin was still sealed with Fang Jian's "Dao·Law". Apart from being able to walk and speak, he could not do anything else. His two hands hung down naturally, like two broken arms.

When Zhou Jin saw Taoist Taixu sitting cross-legged in the hall, his whole body was shocked. Then he knelt down and began to confess his guilt and beg for mercy.

Seeing Zhou Jin's appearance, Daoist Master Taixu showed no emotion. He asked, "You led those members of the Corpse Tribe to ambush and kill Yun Hao, right?"

"I was also instructed by someone, I am not the mastermind. Taoist Taixu, please spare my life. I am willing to guard the tomb of Prince Yunhao for the rest of my life." Zhou Jin pleaded.

Taoist Taixu said, "Madam Jun instructed you to do this, right?"

Zhou Jin said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, it was Madam Jun. She told me that she would support Master Yunqi as the Crown Prince and use the power of the Yao family to help me achieve the position of Dao Zun in the future."

Daoist Master Taixu couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this. "Did she tell you this in bed?"

"Uh..." Zhou Jin was speechless for a moment. He looked at Taoist Taixu with extreme guilt, then lowered his head.

But his reaction was obviously one of tacit agreement. The minister next to him sighed and turned his head away. This was definitely the biggest scandal in the Jingshan Dao Kingdom.

Taoist Taixu said calmly: "I won't kill you."

"Ah?!" Upon hearing this, Zhou Jin suddenly looked up at Daoist Master Taixu. A look of ecstasy washed over his face, and he immediately said, "Thank you, Daoist Master Taixu. Thank you for not killing me. I will never forget this. Starting tomorrow... no, starting today, I will go guard the mausoleum for Prince Yunhao."

Taoist Taixu said, "You are not worthy of guarding his mausoleum. You are only worthy of being with Yao Xing. I will let you return to Yujing to reunite with her."

"..." Zhou Jin was so frightened that he dared not speak again. He looked at Taoist Taixu cautiously, trembling.

At this time, Taoist Taixu asked Zhou Jin, "Are you restrained?"

Zhou Jin quickly said, "Yes, it's Captain Fang Jian's seal."

Daoist Master Taixu said, "I will let you return to Yujing. When you return, meet Yao Xing and tell her that she is still the wife of the King of Jingshan Dao. However, you are not to return to Jingshan Dao anymore. Stay in Yujing."

As he spoke, Taoist Taixu raised his hand and released a great force, ready to lift the seal for Zhou Jin.

However, when the great power of Taoist Taixu fell on Zhou Jin, it did not shake the seal at all, and then it disappeared into thin air.

Taoist Taixu's face darkened, and he immediately became solemn and pointed his hand at Zhou Jin.

I saw a dazzling light with the power of Taixu Daozun's "Dongxu Dao" falling on Zhou Jin, but the scene that Taixu Daozun imagined of the seal being broken by stress did not appear. Instead, it directly dissipated the power of his Dongxu Dao again.
