Yishan smiled but said nothing. He chatted with Fang Jian for a few more words, then took out a talisman and said, "This is a new talisman from the Taixuan Province. From now on, all important talismans from the Heavenly Court will be issued by envoys. After receiving the talisman, the immortal officials in the lower realms must record it in the immortal official jade disc for archiving. This will serve as evidence for future evaluations of their achievements."

Fang Jian took the talisman, read its contents with his divine sense, and then stored it in the Immortal Official Jade Disc. He then looked at Yishan and asked, "Is the Grand Envoy planning to change the Immortal Official Law?"

"That should be the case," Yishan said. "Anyway, the Grand Master will be making major changes to the Immortal Officials' decrees soon, so be prepared."

Fang Jian nodded. At this moment, a thunder suddenly sounded above the sky above his head, and then a huge divine power fell on the Northern Continent.

"The Northern Thunder Emperor has descended to the mortal world." Yishan, a senior immortal official, instantly sensed the source of this divine might. He wondered, "Why is the Northern Thunder Emperor descending to the mortal world at this time?"

Fang Jian thought for a moment and said, "It should be because of the external demon."

"What? A true demon from outside the sect? A true demon from outside the sect appeared in Uttarakuru?" Yishan was shocked and asked hurriedly.

Fang Jian nodded and said, "Yes, didn't Brother Dao ask me why I came here? Because the outsider demon appeared here just now."

"Ah!" Yishan was shocked when he heard this, and then said in disbelief: "You are not lying to me, are you? If it is really a heretic demon, you..."

Yishan was about to ask how it was possible that he was still alive, but then he thought of Fang Jian's recent reputation in the Heavenly Court.

"Really?" Yishan asked.

Fang Jian nodded and said, "Really? At that time, Si Lu Xingjun was chased here by that external demon. I used the Heavenly Thunder Righteousness to repel him, but unfortunately I couldn't stop him."

"Chasing after Si Lu Xingjun?" Yishan was stunned, then asked, "Is it the Blood Demon?"

"That's right!" Fang Jian nodded.

"Ouch." Yishan let out a strange cry, then said, "Then I have to quickly pass on the remaining talismans and return to Heaven. It's too dangerous here. If I'm killed by those outsiders and demons, I won't even have the chance to reincarnate and cultivate again."

Fang Jian jokingly said, "Don't worry, the Immortal Official Jade Disc will at least keep one of your true spirits alive."

"How is that any different from being annihilated by heavenly thunder? A true spirit needs at least a hundred reincarnations to complete its three souls and seven spirits." Yishan grew increasingly frightened as he spoke, finally even surpassing Fang Jian and saying, "No, do you have any magic weapon that can stop the blood demon?"

Fang Jian was startled for a moment, then laughed and said, "Yes, the King of Thailand is furious."

"Lend it to me, okay?" Yishan grabbed Fang Jian's sleeve. "I want to become an immortal and a first-rank immortal official. I don't want to die!"

Fang Jian smiled and said, "Brother Dao, there's no need to do this. The Blood Demon has already escaped a thousand miles away and will probably not come back."

"But I still have to go a thousand miles to deliver the imperial edict." Yishan said, "Fellow Daoist, you can't just stand by and watch someone die!"

Fang Jian smiled helplessly. He wasn't even meeting the Blood Demon yet and he was already so scared.

Unable to resist Yishan's pleading, Fang Jian stretched out his hand and summoned the King's Qi Brick. He then presented it to Yishan and said, "In twelve hours, the King's Qi Brick will fly back."

Yishan quickly caught the Taihuang Qi Brick, then held it in his hand and said, "Twelve hours is enough. Thank you very much, fellow Taoist."

Fang Jian smiled and said, "There's no time to lose. Brother Dao, go somewhere else and spread the message."

Yishan nodded, bowed to Fang Jian, turned around and turned into a ray of light and flew away from the small stone cliff.

But not long after Yishan left, a first-rank Heavenly General of the Xuanxian Dao flew directly to the small stone cliff and asked, "Is Fang Jian, the God of Duanjie Mountain, here?"

Fang Jian rose up on the clouds, flew before the Heavenly General, and bowed, saying, "This humble official is here."

The general looked at Fang Jianyan and said, "I am one of the seventy-two Earthly Fiends, Chen Jizhen, the Earthly Star. I have been ordered to follow the Northern Thunder Emperor down to the lower realms to slay demons. I have come to inform you that the Northern Thunder Emperor will arrive at the small cliffs of Broken Boundary Mountain at 3:00 PM today. He will summon you to the scene, so please be aware of this."

Upon hearing this, Fang Jian immediately bowed and replied, "Yes, Fang Jian understands. I will be here to welcome the Thunder Emperor."
