Mysophobia
Yan Zhu pointed at the protective shield and said, "Please, Guizang Divine Venerable, move aside to avoid accidental injury."
She could easily break Gui Zang's spiritual shield, but considering that the other party was one of her own, Yan Zhu didn't want to make things difficult for Gui Zang.
Gui Zang was afraid that the Heavenly Lord would punish him for his negligence, so he reaffirmed: "You said that all the blame should be borne by Qingxuan?"
Yan Fan was now anxious: "How dare you! How can the Divine Law Hall resort to private punishment? I am a Divine Lord and a priest. Even if I die, I will die under the punishment of Heaven and under the rolling purple thunder! I will not tolerate your private actions."
Yan Zhu turned a deaf ear to Yan Fan's howling. A smile spread across the corners of the woman's mouth as she returned to Tibet: "Of course."
After Gui Zang got the guarantee he wanted, he put away the spiritual shield, made way and stepped aside.
The black silk wrapped around it like a snake spitting out its tongue, waiting to bite its prey and deliver the final blow.
Facing death, Yan Fan's face was filled with horror, but Yan Zhu remained unmoved. His extremely frivolous and bloodthirsty look made Qingxuan's expression darken.
"You can't lynch!"
Yan Fan was truly terrified. He hadn't expected these two to be so lawless! And the Lord of the Divine Law Hall actually chose to turn a blind eye?!
"How dare you!"
When Yan Fan had only a trace of spiritual power left, Yan Zhu was about to use the magic formula to gather his spirit and launch a final attack, but unexpectedly Qing Xuan grabbed his wrist and gently pulled it back. The light of the formation that had just been formed instantly dimmed until it disappeared.
Seeing this, Yan Fan breathed a sigh of relief. It was just spiritual power. If it was gone, it was gone. As long as he was still alive and had the spiritual spring to coexist with him, that person would definitely help him recover his spiritual power.
All the exquisite chess seems useless.
It seems that there are still some people who understand the situation here.
Yan Zhu looked puzzled: "Why are you stopping me?"
Qingxuan patted the woman's wrist soothingly, his voice as gentle as a spring: "He is not worthy yet."
Yan Fan's eyebrows jumped, and he was furious. Just as he was about to say something, he saw a dazzling light piercing him. The next second, his throat was blocked, and he couldn't speak. He watched helplessly as his body became almost transparent and then dissipated into the world...
Gui Zang was stunned, pointing at Qingxuan, and was so angry that he couldn't even finish his words: "You...you guys...it's okay for Yanzhu, but Qingxuan, you have always been calm and composed, why are you so impulsive today!
The Temple of Divine Law is not allowed to engage in private punishment. That is the divine law and the rules of heaven, and all Heavenly Emperors must abide by it!
"Hey? Have you recovered?"
After cursing, Gui Zang realized that the spiritual light from his finger was so fast that he couldn't catch it, but he didn't feel the oppression of the Divine Lord realm.
Yanzhu was speechless. What did "It's okay for Yanzhu" mean? Was she someone who didn't understand the law?
Wujiu sent a message: Master, you are right.
Qingxuan withdrew his hand, and his smile was filled with a bit of Yanzhu's frivolity: "I haven't recovered yet, it's just that Yanfan's spiritual power is completely gone, and he is suppressed by the talisman formation. There is no need for any cultivation."
"oh,"
Gui Zang sighed softly, "What a pity! If your cultivation hadn't been delayed in recovering, you wouldn't have provoked Yan Fan and the assassination plot behind the scenes.
Now that the clues to Yanfan have been cut off, the man in white robes has also disappeared..."
Yan Zhu looked at Qing Xuan, who didn't explain much, but simply concluded: "I'm going to apologize to the Heavenly Sovereign. Does Gui Zang Divine Lord want to come with me?"
Gui Zang was so annoyed that he lost his temper and said weakly, "Let's go."
——
God Realm, Nine-Layered Temple.
The three of them raised their hands and saluted: "Greetings, Lord Tian."
Not far away, on a high seat made of gold and jade, Haotian did not even raise his eyelids, as if he was indifferent to what was happening in the outside world, and his eyes were only focused on the situation in the chess game.
"Tianjun, the three gods are here."
The divine servant reminded softly.
Haotian finally came back to his senses and glanced lightly at the three of them.
"What is it?"
Qingxuan knelt on one knee and performed a divine ceremony: "Your Majesty, I come to apologize for my crime."
"Oh?" Haotian retracted his gaze, "What is your crime?"
Gui Zang and Yan Zhu knelt on the ground with Qing Xuan to pay their respects, while looking at their noses with their eyes and their hearts with their noses, with their eyes lowered and their faces respectful, as if it had nothing to do with them.
Qingxuan explained, "The sinful god Yanfan secretly taught forbidden techniques, fostered foul energy, harmed innocent people, and colluded with external forces, causing unrest in the divine realm. I was so angry that I accidentally killed him. I beg the Heavenly Lord to punish me."
Haotian did not express his attitude, and there was a heavy silence in the hall.
Yan Zhu's eyes flickered. Qing Xuan was so audacious that he actually fooled the Heavenly Sovereign? What was this accidental killing? Wasn't he afraid of the Heavenly Sovereign's scrutiny?
Even though he is a close minister of the Emperor, which superior would tolerate his subordinates fooling around and playing tricks like this?
After a while, Haotian's voice, which did not change with emotion, came from above: "Gui Zang, according to the rules of the divine world, what crime should Yan Fan be punished for?"
Gui Zang replied, "Reporting to the Heavenly Lord, I will be punished with ninety-nine eighty-one times with purple thunder. My divine bones will be stripped away, my consciousness will be destroyed, my cultivation will be dispersed, and I will be sent into the cycle of reincarnation."
Haotian: "What crime should Qingxuan be punished for?"
Gui Zang was silent for a moment, but under the pressure of Haotian, he spoke reluctantly: "Linglongqi used private punishment, which should be punished with... 7749 purple thunders. However, Qingxuan's cultivation has not yet recovered, and he cannot withstand the purple thunders! I hope that the Heavenly Lord will show mercy!"
Haotian gave birth to a child and said selflessly, "You are in charge of the divine law. How can you disregard the heavenly rules because of personal relationships?"
At the same time, waves of pressure came from the hall, and Haotian was obviously angry.
Wujiu transmitted a message: If Qingxuan deserves to be punished, then the matter of his cultivation level cannot be concealed anymore. Killing Yanfan to silence him is a thankless task, and he will be struck by lightning.
Yan Zhu stared at the ground motionlessly, lowered her eyes, and sorted out her thoughts. Qingxuan was a close minister of the Heavenly Emperor. Did he know about Qingxuan's cultivation?
Once again, I sighed that Qingxuan was too bold and took an unconventional approach. He even dared to hide the secret from the Lord of the God Realm?
The woman had no choice but to bite the bullet and, under the pressure from above, she said, "Your Majesty, what Qingxuan did—" I was also involved.
Yan Zhu's words were interrupted by Qing Xuan's calm voice: "I have no complaints about the punishment of the purple thunder. I thank the Heavenly Lord for the punishment."
Haotian glanced at Qingxuan indifferently: "What's the rush? Let the God of Purification finish what he's saying."
Yan Zhu bore the overwhelming pressure with dignity and composure, speaking word for word, "Your Majesty, I was also involved in what Qingxuan did. I am willing to share the thunder punishment with him."
When Gui Zang heard this, his face changed. He was crazy, really crazy. They were rushing to accept the punishment one after another. Don’t they know how to be tactful?
Haotian said coldly, "Why didn't the God of Purification stop Qingxuan? Anyone who commits this offense will not be able to be ordained as a priest within a hundred years."
What?
She was careless. If she had known earlier, she should have killed Yanfan before Qingxuan took action.
As for why? The longer Yan Fan lived, the more likely Qing Xuan's cultivation level would be exposed.
However, the possibility that the man has been exposed cannot be ruled out.
In order to find out the root cause, she also wanted to know why men had to hide their cultivation?
If she had killed Yan Fan, there wouldn't be the dilemma she faces today. Even if she was dismissed, she would be free and at ease while purifying the turbid air.
Why did he stop her?
Yanzhu didn't know at the moment that Qingxuan just didn't want her hands to be stained with blood.
"Also," Haotian continued, "if you get involved in this, your position as a priest will be in jeopardy. You've neglected your duties for personal gain!"
Yan Zhu: "I am willing to accept the punishment."
Qingxuan: "My Lord, this matter has nothing to do with the Pure Turbid God."
"Okay,"
Haotian waved his hand to interrupt, "I don't want to listen to your rambling. The Heavenly Rules cannot be abolished. Pass it on. Qingxuan was punished with 7749 thunderbolts for killing Yanfan privately. Jingzhuo's divine thoughts and feelings will take the initiative to share the responsibility.
Gui Zang, you will carry out the execution in front of all the gods three days later as a warning to others!
Everyone, step back! "
——
Outside the Nine-Layered Temple.
Gui Zang looked at Qing Xuan who was silent beside him and said unhappily, "Everyone said don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive!
This is a big deal. Forty-nine purple thunderbolts have destroyed all your cultivation. Sister Yanzhu has just entered the realm of Godly Venerable and is not yet stable. How can the two of you... withstand it?!"
Gui Zang was so angry that he put his hands on his hips and was worried sick.
Qingxuan: "No problem, thank you for today."
"Three days later at noon, at the Divine Punishment Platform." Gui Zang waved his hand and turned away.
Yan Zhu's eyes flashed with darkness, and when she met Qing Xuan's eyes, the corners of her mouth curled up: "What's the plan?"
She didn't believe it. This man was completely unprepared and was struck by lightning while standing?
Qingxuan glanced at the hall behind him, then turned to look at Yanzhu and asked instead of answering, "Why?"
"protocol."
Yanzhu glanced at Qingxuan. Since the man didn't tell the truth, she didn't bother to say anything more and wanted to leave. However, when she passed by the man, he suddenly grabbed her wrist.
Qingxuan looked gloomy.
Yan Zhu raised her cuffed wrist and asked, "What are you doing, Lord God?"
"handwashing."
Qingxuan lowered his eyes, making it impossible to see his expression. The man used the Zhuquan technique, creating a trickle of water to wash Yanzhu's hand over and over again.
The woman then remembered that Yan Fan had grabbed this hand when he was crazy.
Qingxuan has always been a person with mysophobia.
But she didn't know when the man developed mysophobia towards her?
"That's enough." Yan Zhu wanted to pull her hand away, but the man held the other half tightly and refused to let go.
"Wash again."
The man's usually calm voice seemed to crack as he said, "I'm sorry."
The man's big hand seemed to hold hers easily, but Yanzhu tried hard but couldn't break free. The woman suddenly heard Qingxuan's sorry and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, waiting for what would happen next.
A gloomy look flashed across Qingxuan's eyes, so fast that Yanzhu couldn't tell whether it was an illusion.
The man explained, "Just now, in order to make Yan Fan crazy and reveal more information, I...did not stop his actions."
Including the man's gaze that was always glued to the woman.
Yan Zhu stared at Qingxuan's obscure eyes for a while. This was the first time she saw real emotion in a man's eyes, which was different from his usual calm expression.
obscure.
Suddenly, a smile appeared in her eyes. "It's not a big deal. After all, I devoured all of his spiritual power. Who suffered the greater loss? But you don't seem like someone who would dwell on this matter."
Qingxuan let go, his signature smile curling up at the corner of his mouth. "I was worrying too much. I wonder if the God is free tonight. I still need to discuss the matter of Yanfan with the God."
"Tomorrow."
Yanzhu glanced at Qingxuan and said, "By the way, before you killed Yanfan, did you know that you would not be able to serve as a priest for a hundred years?"
Qingxuan nodded: "I am not ignorant of the law, it's just a position. If I were not a priest, would the gods just let it go if something happened?"
Although she was eloquent, she had never been able to defeat him.
Yan Zhu said nothing more, walked straight past the man and went down the jade steps.
Qingxuan looked at the figure of the woman in front of him with her clothes fluttering in the wind, and thought of how she had protected him in the hall under pressure and shared the thunder punishment with him. The man's eyes became unusually deep.
But now she doesn't care, doesn't care about him...
——
Lonely place.
"You're back?" Yanzhi transformed into a young boy and greeted happily.
Mimi also meowed.
"Well, now that I'm fasting, you don't need to prepare three meals a day for me."
Yanzhi nodded: "My young master said the same thing."
