"General Tian, something big has happened, something big has happened!" A divine general rushed into the Capture and Kill Hall and shouted to the Capture and Kill General Fan Heng who was sitting cross-legged and practicing in the hall.
Anyway, he suddenly opened his eyes, only to see a flash of divine light within them. He then looked at the divine general who had rushed in and asked, "Have you found that woman?"
The general was sweating profusely, "Don't look for her anymore, she's already here."
"Hmm?" Fan Heng suddenly stood up and asked, "She's here? Where is she coming from? How can a mere Nascent Soul come to this Qingyuan Heavenly Palace?"
The general wiped his sweat and said, "No...it was...that Master Hongqing brought him here."
"What?!" Fan Heng was shocked when he heard this, and then he was furious again. He kicked the table beside him and shouted, "How could she be in the hands of Master Hongqing!"
The general said in horror: "I don't know..."
Fan Heng could no longer remain calm, and was as anxious as a grasshopper on a hot pot. "No, we can't just sit there and wait for death. Where are they?"
The general said, "I just saw in the Heavenly Eye Mirror that they are already ascending to the Heavens and are almost at the gate of the Heavenly Palace."
Fan Heng frowned and paced back and forth. "If I offer all the immortal medicines and treasures I've acquired over the past tens of thousands of years, can Master Hongqing please let me go?"
"No!" Fan Heng immediately shook his head and rejected the idea. "If this Master Hongqing could be bribed so easily, why would Lord Dingyuan leave in such dismay?"
Fan Heng was very confident in his own judgment. If he bribed Fang Jian at this time, he would be walking into a trap.
So where is the way out?
The divine general beside him was also extremely anxious. "General Tian, please make a decision quickly. We are the fifty divine generals of the Capture and Killing Palace and we will obey your orders."
Fan Heng stopped, looked back at the divine general, and suddenly asked, "How is it over at Jianta Mountain?"
Upon hearing this, the general's eyes lit up and he said, "The Master of Gu Cang Cave in Jianta Mountain has had many dealings with our Zhusha Palace. If we go and surrender to him, he will surely protect us."
"Moreover, Jianta Mountain is the main Taoist temple of Gu Cang Cave, which can conceal the secrets of heaven. As long as we hide there for a few hundred years, I believe we will be fine." Fan Heng said slowly.
Who is the master of the Gucang Cave in Jianta Mountain? This cave master is not only a Taiyi Xuanxian, but also a disciple of the Bodhisattva Baotanhua. With such a backer, who would dare to offend Jianta Mountain?
Thinking of this, Fan Heng immediately said to the general: "Gather everyone, let's go!"
...
Just as Fan Heng was running away, Fang Jian had already brought Luan Ling'er to the main hall of Qingyuan Palace in Dongtian Prefecture.
In the main hall, the Lord of Heaven Jiuzhen sat high on the steps, and the Master Taihua sat behind the desk below.
The four people, Xu Jiong, the messenger who delivered the letter, Dian Rong, the general who destroyed the temple, Yuan Dao, the general who destroyed the altar, and Sun Zhi, the general who was in charge of the personal guards, stood in a row.
"I'm Fang Jian from the Heavenly Court. Nice to meet you, Lord Jiuzhen." Fang Jian was the first to enter the main hall, then bowed to Lord Jiuzhen who was sitting at the top of the table.
Jiuzhen Tianjun was dressed in a plain Taoist robe, holding a whisk in his hand, and said with a smile: "Fang Jian, why did you come to my Dongtian Mansion as soon as you took office? I don't have a son for you to capture."
Fang Jian bowed respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. Fang Jian only has the laws of heaven in his heart, nothing else."
"No wonder the Grand Envoy appointed you as the Heavenly Judge. You truly are devoted to the law. Okay, this Heavenly Monarch knows you're here for that True Person Cai Jing. However, this case is being handled by General Zhuosha of the Zhuosha Palace, so this Heavenly Monarch isn't entirely clear. You can ask him." After saying this, the Nine True Heavenly Monarch glanced down and said, "Why hasn't General Zhuosha arrived yet? Send someone to urge him immediately."
General Sun Zhi of the Imperial Guard immediately accepted the order and said, "Yes."
Fang Jian added, "Your Majesty, I have brought here Luan Ling'er, a disciple of Master Cai Jing. She was the one who submitted the petition to the Ministry of Thunder, stating her master's injustice. Therefore, I have brought her here for investigation. Please, Your Majesty, summon her."
Jiuzhen Tianjun nodded and said, "Summon Luan Ling'er into the hall."
"The Nine True Heavenly Monarch has decreed that Luan Ling'er enter the palace to meet His Majesty."
Luan Ling'er's delicate body trembled, and she looked at the majestic temple hall in front of her, her heart filled with fear.
But she forced herself to remain calm, because this was a matter of life and death for her master.
When she thought of her master Cai Jing Zhenren, Luan Ling'er's panicked heart immediately calmed down. She tidied her appearance and hair, then lowered her eyes and brows and walked into the hall step by step.
When Luan Ling'er kept walking until she saw the tall figure in front of her, she immediately bowed down and said, "I, Luan Ling'er, a Xuan cultivator from the lower realm, pay my respects to the Nine True Heavenly Monarchs and all the Supreme Gods."
Jiuzhen Tianjun looked at Luan Ling'er and said, "Luan Ling'er, please tell me what grievance your master suffered. If what you say is true, I will definitely make a decision for you."
When Luan Ling'er heard this, she almost burst into tears again, but she immediately calmed down and told the whole story.
After Jiuzhen Tianjun finished listening to Luan Linger's narration, he looked at the Shangshu Tai Hua of Tianjun Mansion and asked, "Shangshu, what do you think?"
Master Taihua reported, "Your Majesty, I believe we can use the soul-searching technique on Luan Ling'er to extract her memories from the past three years, and then we can determine the truth."
"Accurate!" Jiuzhen Tianjun said directly.
Then, Master Taihua said to Luan Ling'er, "Luan Ling'er, the Tianjun Mansion is now going to examine your soul. If you want to regret it, you still have a chance now."
Checking the soul and spirit is very painful, because it uses great magic power to directly recall the memory of the soul and spirit, and also extract it.
It feels like inserting a needle into a bone and then drawing out the bone marrow.
Even a True Immortal might be driven crazy by examining his soul, let alone Luan Ling'er, a cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage.
But Luan Ling'er said without hesitation: "Please, God, take action. Ling'er can bear it."
