Shangshu Tai, Shangji Palace, Ziming Hall.

The vast auspicious clouds enveloped the entire Ziming Palace. A Xiantian Dharma image sat cross-legged at the top of the Ziming Palace, which was covered by the vast auspicious clouds. This Xiantian Dharma image sat there, ethereal and majestic, but its face and appearance could not be seen clearly.

The only thing that can be seen clearly is that this innate Dharma image is jade-colored all over, with three divine lights on each of the eyebrows, heart, and lower abdomen. The "Qi body flows" in the divine light, emitting boundless power.

The Qi within these three divine lights are precisely the Three Pure Ones' Mysterious Qi. The one between the eyebrows is the Taiqing Mysterious Qi, the one in the heart is the Yuqing Mysterious Qi, and the one above the lower abdomen is the Shangqing Mysterious Qi.

The mysterious Qi of the Three Pure Ones is gathered in one body, which means that the owner of this innate Dharma image is a powerful person in the "Three Pure Ones Realm".

"You came to see me just for this matter?" The Xiantian Dharma Image emitted an ethereal divine voice, causing Sanxu Shangqing, who was standing in the center of the Ziming Palace, to tremble involuntarily.

Sanxu Shangqing bowed and said, "Your Highness, Grand Daoist Master Taichu, Fang Jian is so lawless that he actually dared to lead his troops to attack the Garrison Office. Moreover, these are the same soldiers who fought during the Huisheng Rebellion. This is clearly a rebellion."

Upon hearing this, Taichu Daozun Xiantian Dharmakāya said calmly, "How could those soldiers obey his orders?"

Sanxu Shangqing was stunned for a moment, then bowed and said, "This... I don't know either. It is said that he suppressed Gao Zaidao and the other nine..."

Taoist Taichu said calmly: "Suppress?" His tone was full of doubt.

After that, the Taoist Master Taichu fell silent, and the Shangqing Sanxu didn't dare to breathe, but just stood there respectfully and waited.

About thirty breaths later, Taichu Daozun uttered another divine voice, "Gao Zaidao and his men are already dead."

"What?!" Sanxu Shangqing's face suddenly changed, and he said in shock: "This is impossible. If he killed Gao Zaidao and others, how could he be safe and sound? And... and..."

Sanxu Shangqing did not say the "and" in his words, but what he meant was that if Fang Jian killed Gao Zaidao and others, he would not only be punished by the "pardon order", but Taichu Daozun would also be implicated and punished by the pardon order.

Daoist Grandmaster Taichu remained silent for a long time. After about thirty breaths, he spoke again, "Gao Zaidao and the others are indeed dead. Their energy is no longer present between heaven and earth. This suggests that Fang Jian has a method to circumvent or eliminate the 'pardon order.'"

"This!!!" Sanxu Shangqing was horrified. "But the pardon order was granted by the Xiantian Yuanshi Treasure Seal. How could he, a Hunyuan Wuji Daluo Jinxian, possess such powerful means?"

Daoist Master Taichu said calmly, "In the Xiantian Wuji Realm, anything can happen. As a Hunyuan Wuji Daluo Jinxian, you still have such narrow-minded ideas."

Sanxu Shangqing quickly bowed and said, "However, he dared to openly lead his troops to force his way into the Dadao Court government office. This is truly too bold and completely disregards the law."

Daoist Master Taichu said, "He is doing this to uphold the dignity of the Dao Court's laws. If that Lie Heng is transferred to the Court Law Department, can you guarantee that Lie Yi won't bend the law for personal gain?"

Sanxu Shangqing trembled all over and quickly lowered his head, not daring to speak.

Then, Taichu Daozun continued, "Although we, the Five Regents, don't interfere in many matters, don't think we don't know. You should handle the matter of Fang Jian yourself. He did nothing wrong in upholding the authority of the law. If you are dissatisfied, find a way to kill him yourself. Don't come to me for such trivial matters in the future."

Upon hearing this, Sanxu Shangqing immediately knelt on the ground and bowed, "Yes, I have disturbed the Daozun without reason. I acknowledge my guilt."

A cloud of celebration passed by, covering the innate Dharma image of Taichu Daozun. Sanxu Shangqing looked up, then did not dare to say a word and bowed and left the Ziming Palace.

After leaving the Secretariat, Sanxu Shangqing couldn't help but sigh. Taichu Daozun didn't reveal the slightest bit of his attitude towards Fang Jian.

He was not even surprised at how Fang Jian killed Gao Zaidao and others, which made Sanxu Shangqing a little unsure.

However, recalling what the Taoist Master Taichu had just said, Shangqing Sanxu frowned. At least one thing was certain, the Taoist Master Taichu had no intention of killing Fang Jian and seemed to want to let things develop naturally.

But if this happens, he will be in trouble. Fang Jian is so powerful and has the thousand soldiers with pardon orders in his hands. It will be difficult for him to be a superior.

Kill Fang Jian? Sanxu Shangqing wanted to, but he didn't know Fang Jian's background well enough to dare to act rashly.

In addition, now that we know that Fang Jian killed Gao Zaidao and others, it means that he has a way to deal with the amnesty order, and he can also kill nine Hunyuan Wuji Daluo Jinxian at the same time.

More importantly, Fang Jian is the son of Taiyuan Daozun. It would be best if he could kill him with one strike. If something goes wrong, he would be in big trouble.

After much thought, Shangqing Sanxu decided that it would be best not to fight Fang Jian to the point of life and death. As Shangqing of the Dao Court, he would have many good days in the future and there was no need to risk his life and status for a trivial matter.

Thinking of this, Sanxu Shangqing immediately adjusted his mentality. Taichu Daozun said that he was too "narrow-minded", so he should be more generous now.

Afterwards, after adjusting his mentality, Sanxu Shangqing immediately returned to his garrison office and sent someone to issue an order, asking Fang Jian to come to the garrison office again.

At this time, Fang Jian was about to meet the "old calculator", but after receiving the order from Sanxu Shangqing, although he was a little confused, he immediately decided to go to the garrison office to meet Sanxu Shangqing.

So Fang Jian asked Yu Censhuang to let the old fortune teller wait in Changyou Hall for some time.

Fang Jian then left the Night Patrol Captain's Mansion and went to the Garrison Office. Soon Fang Jian arrived at the Garrison Office, reported, entered the gate, and walked all the way to Minghua Hall.

But when he passed through a circular corridor that was the only way to reach Minghua Hall, he suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart. He turned his head and looked around, and found that the circular corridor was extremely quiet and there was no one around.
