Daluo Heaven, Taisu Palace, Dongzhen Palace.

Fang Jian called Hei Haier, Qingyan Tongzi and Qingyi Tongzi to his side and made arrangements for them one by one.

Fang Jian issued three edicts, saying, "Hei Hai'er, you will go to the Qingxiao Treasure Realm and become the demon clan's 'Demon Master', a true god. I will also grant you the Taoist name 'Hongyi' and the title of 'True Man'."

After saying that, Fang Jian handed a Xumi magic weapon to Hei Haier and said, "I don't have any good magic weapons to leave for you. I will give you everything in my Xumi magic weapon."

Hei Haier took the imperial edict and the Sumeru magic weapon. Even though he had a stubborn temper, he couldn't help sobbing softly at this moment.

"Why are you crying?" Fang Jian said with a smile, "I've already made an agreement with Tang Yu. When you reach the level of Taiyi Golden Immortal, he will bestow upon you the title of 'Demon Master of the Demon Clan'."

"Master Hongyi, you are a demon master of the demon clan, so you can't cry so easily anymore." Fang Jian said with a smile.

When Hei Haier heard this, he raised his hand to wipe away the tears in his eyes, then bowed and said, "I will obey your command."

Then Fang Jian said to the boy Qingyan, "Qingyan, you will go to the Eastern Heavens and serve as the Grand Sima of Life in the Taixuan Division. You will be given the position of a true god and be granted the title of 'True Man'."

Qingyan Tongzi had experienced separation once, so this time he seemed relatively calm, but there was still a hint of sadness in his eyes.

"Qingyan accepts the order." The boy Qingyan received the order and then bowed and kowtowed.

Finally, Fang Jian looked at Qingyi Tongzi, who had been wiping his tears there and had never stopped since the beginning.

Fang Jian smiled slightly, and then he handed the third decree to Qingyi Boy, saying, "Qingyi, you will go to be a personal attendant to Taoist Zhenwu."

Qingyi Tongzi looked at Fang Jian with tearful eyes and said, "I want to go with you."

Fang Jian smiled and said, "I'm just in seclusion to experience tribulations. I will be back in the future. You go to Taoist Zhenwu first, and I will come to pick you up when I return."

The Qingyi boy asked, "Really?"

Fang Jian smiled and said, "Absolutely true."

The Qingyi boy finally stopped crying, took the imperial edict, bowed, and said, "Yes, Qingyi obeys your command."

Fang Jian nodded, then waved his hand and said, "You should go to the Divine Heaven Jade Palace first to complete the appointment procedures."

"Yes." The three of them bowed and turned to leave. The boy Qingyi kept looking back, taking three steps at a time, and finally was taken away by the boy Qingyan's hand.

After walking out of the Dongzhen Palace, Heihaier turned around and looked at the majestic and solemn Dongzhen Palace, sighing deeply, with endless melancholy and loneliness in his eyes.

After the three men left, Fang Jian was about to go see his three old friends when a celestial soldier suddenly arrived outside the palace to announce, "Your Majesty, the Heavenly Judge Wen Zhenru wishes to see you."

"Oh?" Fang Jian was slightly startled when he heard the name, then shook his head and said, "Let her in."

Soon, Wen Zhenru, dressed in white and as cold as the moon, walked into the Dongzhen Palace with her head lowered.

"Your servant Wen Zhenru pays homage to the Great Emperor Hongqing." Wen Zhenru walked to the center of the hall and bowed to Fang Jian.

Fang Jian smiled and said, "You've come at the right time. I have something to ask you."

Wen Zhenru's youthful face was slightly startled, and then he bowed and said, "Please ask the Great Emperor."

Fang Jian said, "I personally presided over the execution of your parents. Do you have any hatred towards me?"

Wen Zhenru was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and said, "No."

Fang Jian asked again, "Do you have any hatred towards the Heavenly Court or the Heavenly Law?"

Wen Zhenru shook her head again and replied, "No."

Fang Jian said: "No matter what, you can have hatred towards me, but you cannot have hatred towards the Heavenly Court and Heavenly Law, otherwise you will go astray in the future."

"I didn't!" Wen Zhenru suddenly raised her voice. "I said no and it means no. I never hate anyone, not even the Heavenly Court or the Heavenly Law! I've never met my parents and I know nothing about them. I was raised by Empress Wen Lin, and I only have one relative, Empress Jiu Tian Xuan Nu."

At this point, Wen Zhenru's jade eyes flushed red. She looked up at Fang Jian and said, "But the queen is gone, leaving me alone. Actually, there is another person. I have always admired him, respected him, and even... liked him, but I never dared to say it. Now he is leaving too."

Fang Jian was not surprised by Wen Zhenru's words. He simply said calmly, "You will have your own path to follow in the future. Being a judge in heaven is a very good path."

Wen Zhenru said, "I know. I've made up my mind to live by the laws of Heaven and uphold their principles for the rest of my life. But if I don't say something now, I might not have the chance later."

After saying this, Wen Zhenru looked straight at Fang Jian and said, "Great Emperor Hongqing, please forgive me for my offense. I like you and have liked you for a long time."

Fang Jian nodded and said, "I know."

Wen Zhenru was stunned, then suddenly laughed. This laugh was like the coming of spring and the melting of ice and snow. All the knots in her heart disappeared at this moment.

Fang Jian didn't say much, but simply instructed Wen Zhenru, "As a judge, you must avoid letting your emotions get in the way. From now on, you must be completely emotionless, only then can you enforce the law impartially."

Wen Zhenru readjusted his mindset, then bowed and said, "Your servant, Wen Zhenru, respectfully obeys the command of the Great Emperor Hongqing."

Fang Jian said, "I don't have anything to give you. This black jade fan was given by the goddess Nuwa, so I'll give it to you."

As he spoke, Fang Jian waved his sleeves, and the black jade fan immediately flew in front of Wen Zhenru.

Wen Zhenru immediately caught the Xuansu Jade Fan, hugged it tightly in his arms, and then bowed again, saying, "I thank the Great Emperor for his generous gift."

Fang Jian nodded slightly, then said, "Okay, go ahead. Remember my words, be ruthless and follow the laws of nature."
