After returning to Fang Cunju, Fang Jian first converted all his merits into Hongmeng Dao Qi. Ten million merits plus his salary over the years converted a total of 104,200 strands of Dao Qi.
Adding the previous 130,050 strands of Dao Qi, there are a total of 234,050 strands of Dao Qi.
The editor still needs 130,000 Dao Qi to reach the 360,000 Dao Qi required for the fifth-grade golden elixir that can directly pick the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit. However, Fang Jian is still very satisfied that the gap can be shortened by 100,000 Dao Qi at once.
After Fang Jian had sorted everything out, he left Fang Cunju and came to the front yard.
Yuxiao Tianma was tied by Fang Jian under a laurel tree in the front yard. Yuxiao Tianma was standing under the laurel tree bored, snorting from time to time.
Seeing Fang Jian walking towards him, Yuxiao Tianma immediately became energetic, constantly raising his four hooves to step on the cloud bricks on the ground, and neighing softly at Fang Jian.
Fang Jian came up to Yuxiao Pegasus, raised his hand and stroked its flowing, flexible, soft and tough mane and said, "Want to go for a walk outside?"
Yuxiao Tianma neighed and responded actively to Fang Jian's words, its pair of spiritual eyes filled with yearning for the outside world.
"Don't worry." Fang Jian said, "I'll take you outside the Heavenly Palace soon, but you have to wait until I finish my work."
Yuxiao Tianma blinked, then nodded obediently.
"Well... I still need to give you a name, but there's no rush. Let me think about it slowly." Fang Jian said, touching Yuxiao Tianma's forehead.
Fang Jian then walked out of Fang Cunju and headed towards Tianlu Palace.
Ever since Fang Jian took on the role of 'God of Justice' as a 'part-time' immortal position, he rarely came to the Heavenly Court.
The Heavenly Court is now more deserted than when he first became the God of Justice, especially after those real people were killed.
Nezha's head of the Heavenly Court is only a "part-time" one, so now there are actually only five real people presiding over the Heavenly Court: Zhou Zhao, Qin Yi, Guanghua, Shao Ling, and Ke Mengqing.
Fang Jian only saw two Taoist priests, Zhou Zhao and Qin Yi, in the Tianlu Hall. The three Taoist priests, Guanghua, Shao Ling and Ke Mengqing, went to the Leibu Department to judge the laws.
Fang Jian chatted with the two immortals Zhou and Qin in the Tianlu Hall for a while, then left the Tianlu Hall and went to the Thunder Department.
Fang Jian came to the Ministry of Thunder for no other reason than to receive punishment. He was punished with one hundred thunder whips by the Great Emperor of Longevity in the South Pole, and the imperial edict was also passed to the Ministry of Thunder early. Although Fang Jian could receive the punishment later, it was better to get this matter over with as soon as possible.
Sure enough, as soon as Fang Jian arrived at the Lei Department, he met three real people: Guanghua, Shao Ling, and Ke Mengqing. Real person Shao Ling, who was once sent to Lei Ze to serve two years of imprisonment by Fang Jian because of drinking, had completely forgotten about it and was very enthusiastic towards Fang Jian.
Shao Ling Zhenren even took out a bottle of spiritual wine and offered Fang Jian a drink on the spot, which made everyone laugh.
Ke Mengqing snatched the bottle from Shao Ling Zhenren's hand and said to him, "Have you forgotten how Zhenren Hongqing sent you to Lei Ze?"
Upon hearing this, Master Shao Ling was startled, then he said, "If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten about this. Hey, give me back the bottle, I won't drink it."
Ke Mengqing immediately put the wine into his sleeve and said with a smile: "I'll keep it for you."
"Who asked you to keep it? Come back!" After saying that, Master Shao Ling stepped forward and started snatching it from Ke Mengqing.
Seeing this, Master Guanghua shook his head and asked Fang Jian, "Master Hongqing, is there some major case that has brought you to the Thunder Department?"
This is already the consensus among the immortal officials in the Heavenly Court. If Master Hongqing appears in the Ministry of Thunder, there is a high probability that there is some major case.
Fang Jian shook his head and said with a smile, "I am here to receive the punishment of the thunder whip."
"Oh?" Master Guanghua was quite surprised. Even Master Ke Mengqing and Master Shaoling, who were fighting for the wine bottle, stopped and looked over.
Fang Jian smiled slightly and said, "When I was working in the Haolan Realm, I was punished by the Southern Pole Changsheng Emperor for killing too many people. I was struck with a hundred thunder whips."
Upon hearing this, Master Shao Ling asked in confusion, "Master Hong Qing, you've already been punished with the Thunder Whip before. I heard from fellow Daoists at the Northern Emperor's Thunder Division that the Thunder Whip was like a tickle to you. The Southern Emperor of Immortality punished you with a hundred Thunder Whips, but I think it was just a token of his appreciation, right?"
Fang Jian's smile faltered upon hearing this, while Master Guanghua turned to Master Shaoling and said, "Did you drink so much that your brain got damaged? How can you say such things so casually?"
Master Shaoling was used to being carefree, but when he heard Master Guanghua's words, he immediately reacted and broke out in a cold sweat.
If these words were heard by someone who went to the Lingxiao Palace to report him, he would face a two-year prison sentence.
Thinking of this, Master Shao Ling subconsciously took out another bottle of wine from his sleeve and opened the jade stopper.
"What are you doing?" Ke Mengqing asked Master Shao Ling.
Shao Ling Zhenren said: "Drink some wine and calm down."
“…”
Looking at everyone's expressions, Shao Ling Zhenren chuckled, put the jade cork in the bottle and put the wine away, then said to Fang Jian: "Zhenren Hongqing, I haven't drunk a single sip yet."
Everyone laughed, and Fang Jian chatted with the three of them for a stick of incense before arriving at the Northern Emperor's Thunder Division.
"Master Hongqing, you're here again." After seeing Fang Jian, Huo Yi, the Prime Minister of the Northern Emperor's Thunder Division, looked at Fang Jian with a smile and said.
Fang Jian bowed and said, "Prime Minister Huo Yi, I have to trouble you again."
Huo Yi shook his head and said, "Don't bother, don't bother. This is what I do in the Northern Emperor's Thunder Division."
After saying this, Huo Yi turned to Fang Jian and asked, "Master Hongqing, would you like to drink a few cups of spiritual tea before being sentenced?"
