Chapter 199: Dragon Qi Coiled in Pearls, Divine Talisman Transformed into Jade
Judge Liu, having been the chief judge of the Sinful Soul Division for countless years, knew that this confession would be of little use. However, since this case concerned the City God lineage and the Yin-Yang Dharma King, a cult already well-established in the Yue Mansion, he had no choice but to strip Cheng Wu of his memories and submit them to Judge Wei of the Yin-Yang Division, who would then present them to the Lord of the Mansion.
The Lord invited everyone to come and see, which was beyond Judge Liu's expectation.
Gong Mengbi was immersed in Cheng Wu's memories. Comparing them with Zhen Wubing's previous confession, he gained a deeper understanding of the Yin-Yang Dharma King's lineage and witnessed the power of the Yin-Yang Dharma King himself.
The Yin-Yang Dharma King was an extremely young and handsome man, with jet-black hair and skin even fairer than a woman's, full of vitality and vigor. Gong Mengbi didn't know his actual age, but due to his practice of Yin-Yang Transformation Technique, the Yin-Yang Dharma King's body was always at its peak.
He has a body full of vitality, but he is by no means a person full of vitality. His youth was stolen from others. There is no telling how many sins Venerable Tianyang and Madam Diyin have committed.
Cheng Wu was extremely hungry and robbed the Yin-Yang Dharma King. The Yin-Yang Dharma King broke his bones, set them again, and then asked him if he was willing to practice with him.
The Yin-Yang Dharma King likes such fierce and indifferent disciples, and he is more willing to spend more energy on them.
Cheng Wu hated people and ghosts, and would never give up even for a small grudge, but he also remembered kindness. When Zhen Wubing treated him well, he always respected her. When Yin Yang Fa Wang treated him well, he always wanted to repay her kindness.
But he never had the chance to repay his debt until the winter solstice of last year, when the Yin-Yang Dharma King returned injured for unknown reasons. Cheng Wu, of course, didn't know that the Yin-Yang Dharma King and the Fire Dragon Master had fought a fierce battle in the Imperial Mausoleum that day, and the Fire Dragon Master was ultimately outnumbered.
Cheng Wu just wanted to show his filial piety to the Yin-Yang Dharma King while he was injured, but he happened to see the Yin-Yang Dharma King sucking his two brothers into mummies.
The two brothers tried to resist, but the Yin-Yang ghosts were released, and they became the Yin-Yang Dharma King's accomplices. He knew that the Yin-Yang Dharma King loved food. No wonder when he first joined the sect, the strongest senior brother suddenly disappeared one day and never appeared again.
Cheng Wu didn't dare to reveal a single word and pretended that nothing had happened. However, he wanted to take revenge, but he never had the chance.
It was not until Cheng Wu came to Jiangnan under the pretext of visiting Zhen Wubing that the Yin-Yang Dharma King wanted him to take something to the Gusu City God, so he let him go south.
Cheng Wu first came looking for Zhen Wubing, but Zhen Wubing was already dead. The saying "a star of misfortune" applies to Cheng Wu. Those who treat him well don't live long, and those he values will inevitably lose him, leaving him with nothing.
Cheng Wu was extremely angry, but looking at the Niangniang Temple, he suddenly had a brilliant idea.
He wanted revenge, revenge for Zhen Wubing and revenge for himself.
The destruction of the Goddess Temple alarmed the Yue Mansion and dragged the City God of Jiangnan into the turmoil. As for whether he was alive or dead, it seemed unimportant.
When he was captured by the Yue family, he immediately confessed and wanted to drag the Yin-Yang Dharma King into the water and never let him off easily.
Gong Mengbi frowned slightly. Cheng Wu was undoubtedly a madman with self-destructive tendencies, but this kind of "self-sacrifice" could not increase the credibility of his confession. On the contrary, it would reduce its credibility because of his revengeful intentions.
The Lord of Mount Tai looked through Cheng Wu's memories and asked, "Judge Liu, does this person still have the gift he wanted to bring to the Gusu City God?"
Judge Liu took out a jade box and said, "It's here. However, the box has the seal of the Yin-Yang Dharma King on it. I dare not open it without permission."
The Lord of Mount Tai reached out to take the jade box, turned it gently in his hands, and then opened the jade box without touching the talisman on it at all.
A ray of golden light burst out from the jade box, spinning inside like a bright moon.
Gong Mengbi felt a slight glare, but upon closer inspection, he discovered that beneath the radiance lay a small, coiled dragon. Its energy was entwined, its shape like a pearl.
Judge Qiu said softly, "Dragon Essence is the gathering of dragon energy in human nature."
Several judges fell into deep thought. Gong Mengbi pondered for a moment and asked, "Is this Dragon Essence of any use to the City God?"
Judge Qiu said, "The City God is a deity appointed by humanity, so Dragon Essence can naturally enhance his divine power."
Gong Mengbi pondered for a moment, a little hesitant, but looking at the Lord of Mount Tai sitting in the main seat, he felt that there was nothing he couldn't say, so he asked, "Since this thing is the gathering of dragon energy, what will happen if it is used on a human?"
"This..." Judge Qiu hesitated, then looked at Judge Wei. Judge Wei nodded, and he continued, "If applied to a human, their fate would naturally change. From a fish to a dragon, from a dragon to a dragon, they are destined to become kings."
Gong Mengbi said, "I suspect someone may be harboring ambitions to acquire the dragon. This dragon essence might not be prepared for the Gusu City God, but for someone else. But I have no evidence, it's just speculation. You can just ignore it and don't take it seriously."
Gong Mengbi did not explicitly mention the King of Wu, but in the Jiangnan area and in Gusu, who else could it be except the King of Wu?
Furthermore, the King of Wu might be related to the Ghost Mother and the Ghost King of the Juliu Tribe. This was something that had long been recorded by the underworld.
Judge Qiu asked, "Where did the Yin-Yang Dharma King obtain his Dragon Essence?"
Gong Mengbi said: "I may know the exact information."
The Lord of the Mansion and several high judges looked over again. Gong Mengbi's expression remained unchanged as he said, "I've met True Man Huolong of the Hidden Dragon Sect before. He's now returning to cultivation after overcoming his tribulation and suffering a plot by the Yin-Yang Dharma King in the Imperial Mausoleum. This Dragon Essence is very likely from the Imperial Mausoleum."
Gong Mengbi explained the reason why True Man Huolong was in trouble, and the judges understood.
The Lord of Mount Tai said, "President Wei, write a letter about this matter and inform all the city gods in the world. Tell the ghosts in Yue Mansion to pay more attention to the movements in the world of the living and not to take it lightly."
"Yes." The judges agreed.
The Lord of Mount Tai said, "The dragon energy is leaking out, and destiny is turbulent. The human world is not at peace, and I'm afraid the netherworld will also be uneasy. We need to make plans early. Yue Pan, order the judges of the seventy-two departments to come and see us."
Report to Judge Si Yue quickly, bow and promise, then hurried out of the hall.
The Lord of Mount Tai looked at Gong Mengbi and said, "Gong Huzheng, you have made great contributions to the Yue Mansion and deserve to be rewarded. I see that you are carrying the Taiyue Divine Talisman. Bring it out for me to see."
Gong Mengbi took out the Taiyue Divine Talisman, and the talisman flew into the hands of the Lord of Mount Tai. The Lord took a look and knew what troops Gong Mengbi had mobilized and what he had done. He nodded with satisfaction and blew on the Taiyue Divine Talisman. The stone talisman turned from petrified jade and fell back into Gong Mengbi's hands.
"Make good use of this thing." Taishan Lord instructed.
Gong Mengbi was overjoyed and said happily, "Little Fox, remember this."
The next moment, the scenery changed, and Gong Mengbi was already on Xilong Mountain. Gong Mengbi was unable to attend the grand court meeting at the Yue Mansion.
