Although the Bull Demon King had been suppressed, he bore more of the blame for the crimes of Princess Iron Fan and himself. No one could help bear the sins of those people from the Rakshasa clan.

"Your Majesty, the matter of the Bull Demon King was definitely not leaked by my subordinates." Tang Yuli said in the Hongde Hall with great grievance.

Fang Jian stared at Tang Yu and said slowly, "I trust you, but this is a serious matter, so we still need to investigate it thoroughly to completely clear your suspicion."

After saying that, Fang Jian said to Tang Yu, "Pull out one of your worries."

"Yes." Tang Yu responded helplessly, but immediately pulled out a strand of her hair, wrapped it with magic power and sent it to Fang Jian.

Fang Jian pressed Tang Yu's hair onto the jade table, then said to Tang Yu, "You take my decree and lead the heavenly soldiers to the Rakshasa tribe to capture these people."

As he spoke, Fang Jian brought the spiritual light image of the battle at Jilei Mountain to Tang Yu and said, "We must capture them and bring them back to Xitian Prefecture to be punished."

"I obey the order." Tang Yu captured the spiritual light and reflected it, then nodded and left.

After Tang Yu left, Fang Jian sat down and formed a seal, practicing the "Zixu Yishu". Two purple divine lights suddenly shot out from his eyes and shone directly on the hair of Tang Yu.

Then, a purple light and shadow appeared behind Fang Jian. Countless complicated images flashed in the light and shadow. After lasting for a cup of tea, those lights and shadows suddenly retracted and disappeared.

The seal in Fang Jian's hand also dissipated immediately, the purple divine light in his eyes was retracted, and everything returned to normal.

Fang Jian's expression was calm, but there was a hint of relief in his eyes. He had used the "Zixu Yishu" to calculate the secrets of heaven, and Tang Yu had nothing to do with the leak.

This is great. If even Tang Yu has problems, then Fang Jian will have no choice but to carry out a major purge in Xitian Mansion.

Fang Jian raised his hand and Tang Yu's hair instantly disappeared into thin air. Fang Jian's thoughts of conducting a major investigation within Xitian Mansion also temporarily disappeared.

A little later, Liu Yan, the Secretary of the Western Heaven Hall, entered the Hongde Hall and bowed to Fang Jian, saying, "Secretary Liu Yan, the Secretary, pays homage to the Heavenly Sovereign."

Fang Jian asked Liu Yan, "What's the matter?"

Liu Yan took out a jade envelope and said, "Heavenly General, I have received a letter from the Cave God Hall, asking when the Heavenly Lord will go to the Cave God Hall to study."

Fang Jian raised his hand and used his magic power to take the jade box into his hand. He opened it and took a look. It was indeed an inquiry letter from Dongshen Hall.

The meaning of the inquiry letter was probably to ask when Fang Jian would come to Dongshen Hall for classes so that Dongshen Hall could arrange the courses and studies.

After reading the inquiry, Fang Jian was silent for a moment, then said, "Please reply to Dongshen Hall on my behalf and tell them that I will be going to Dongshen Hall to study on the day of Frost's Descent."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yan calculated in his mind and said, "So, sixteen days later?"

"Yes." Fang Jian nodded.

Liu Yan bowed and said, "I will obey the order. I will take my leave."

After Liu Yan left, Fang Jian summoned the palace guard, Lu Deqing, and ordered him to bring the Jade-faced Fairy and her son to Hongde Palace.

A moment later, the Jade-faced Fairy and the Black Boy were escorted to the Hongde Palace by Lu Deqing and the heavenly soldiers.

"Remove the restraints on them." Fang Jian said to the heavenly soldiers.

The heavenly soldiers bowed and sang in greeting, then removed the ropes that bound the Jade-faced Fairy and the black boy.

As the restraints were removed, the Jade-faced Fairy immediately bowed and said, "Sinner Jade-faced, I thank Master Hongqing."

At the same time, the Jade-faced Fairy reached out and pulled Hei Haier, indicating that he should also thank Fang Jian, but Hei Haier was completely unmoved and just looked up at Fang Jian.

"How dare you! Why don't you bow to the Emperor of Heaven?" Lu Deqing, who was standing by, shouted at Hei Hai when he saw him being so rude.

The Jade-faced Fairy's expression changed, and she quickly said, "The black boy was young and ignorant, and he offended the divine power. I beg Master Hongqing to forgive his sin."

"It's just a minor matter." Fang Jian said, "The Heavenly Law doesn't stipulate that it's a sin to not bow to the gods when you see them. Even if Black Boy doesn't bow, he won't be at fault."

Some of the rules in "Heavenly Rules" are actually very flexible. For example, there is a crime called "disrespecting gods and blaspheming divine power", but in terms of specifics, it actually depends entirely on how the gods themselves interpret it.

For example, the Heavenly Law does not stipulate that gods or mortals must perform rituals when they see the immortal officials and spirits in heaven. So on the surface, if you do not perform rituals when you see the gods, you have not violated the Heavenly Law and there is nothing wrong with it.

But the reality is that if you are rude when you see God, it will be considered as "disrespectful to the gods", so you are very flexible and it all depends on whether the god in front of you likes you or not.

Just like now, Hei Haier didn't salute Fang Jian, and Fang Jian was too lazy to argue with him, so he said, "The heavenly rules do not stipulate that immortal cultivators must salute when they see immortal officials and gods."

But if Fang Jian wanted to deal with Hei Hai, it would be simple. He could just say that he did not worship the gods, was disrespectful to the gods, and blasphemed the gods' power, and then he could be taken down.

There are many such rules in "Heavenly Rules", and they are very loose. It all depends on the personality and mood of each immortal official and god to interpret them accordingly.

This is why they have the right to interpret the Heavenly Rules. Taoism and Buddhism cannot do so because they are not within the Heavenly Court system and therefore do not have the right to interpret the Heavenly Rules.

"Yumian, the sins of you and Heihaier have been atoned for, you can leave now." Fang Jian said to the Jade-faced Fairy.

The Jade-faced Fairy was stunned when she heard this. She had thought that Fang Jian wanted to use her and her son to threaten the Bull Demon King, so she had already prepared her words. But Fang Jian suddenly said that she was not guilty and could leave. This made the Jade-faced Fairy unable to react for a while.

After a long while, the Jade-faced Fairy asked Fang Jian in a daze, "Master Hongqing, are you saying that we can leave now?"

Fang Jian nodded and said, "Yes, Bull Demon King took the blame for your crimes and has been brought to justice, so you can leave now."
