"Stand up." said the Qinghua Emperor of Dongji.
Fang Jian bowed again and said, "Thank you, Master."
After Fang Jian stood up, the Eastern Qinghua Emperor spoke, "Fang Jian, you single-handedly led the Western Heaven Prefecture to quell the demonic rebellion in Xiniu Hezhou. Your contribution is immense."
Fang Jian said respectfully, "My Lord, this time, we were able to suppress the demonic rebellion in Xiniu Hezhou without the full support of Gan Jin, Kun Yan and the other eight Taoists. I would like to ask the Lord to confer the title of Great Saints on Gan Jin, Kun Yan and the other eight Taoists."
The Great Emperor Qinghua of the Eastern Pole nodded and said, "Well, since you have made a promise, the Heavenly Court should respond in kind."
After saying this, the Eastern Qinghua Emperor continued, "I have read your memorial. Are the achievements you mentioned in it exaggerated or understated?"
Fang Jian said, "Replying to the Grand Envoy, the merits I have reported are all based on facts, impartial and impartial, without any exaggeration or reduction."
"Very good." The Eastern Qinghua Emperor asked again, "Then, what do you think about the matter in your memorial about the Ten Demon Kings being the masterminds?"
When Fang Jian heard this, he immediately looked towards the Emperor Qinghua of Dongji, but unfortunately, the Emperor Qinghua of Dongji had a calm expression, and he could not tell anything at all.
After thinking for a moment, Fang Jian said truthfully, "I believe that the mastermind behind the recent chaos in Xiniu Hezhou must be the Buddhist sect, or some of the Buddhas within it."
Emperor Qinghua of the Eastern Pole lowered his eyes slightly and said, "This is just your speculation. Do you have any evidence?"
"No." Fang Jian shook his head.
The Great Emperor Qinghua of the Eastern Pole said, "Since there is no evidence, we must not act rashly. Do you understand?"
When Fang Jian heard this, he immediately understood that the Emperor Qinghua of the East was warning him not to use this matter to challenge Buddhism without solid evidence.
It seems that the main reason why Emperor Qinghua of Dongji summoned me to an audience was to warn me.
Although he didn't understand what the Emperor Qinghua of Dongji was thinking, facing the chief envoy of Taixuandu Province, Fang Jian had no choice but to obey.
"Yes, I will obey the order of the great lord." Fang Jian bowed.
The Eastern Qinghua Emperor nodded, then said to Fang Jian, "You have performed a great deed this time. Ordinary rewards are not enough to commend you. Therefore, I have petitioned the Great Celestial Venerable to grant you ten million merits. Are you satisfied?"
In the world today, only the Jade Emperor can bestow merits on behalf of Heaven, and only the 'Taishang Daozu' has this authority.
Please note that it is 'Taishang Daozu', not 'Taishang Laojun'. Taishang Laojun is the manifestation of Taishang Daozu left in the world.
Ten million merits! Fang Jian was pleasantly surprised and satisfied. Of course he was satisfied. What he lacked the most was merits!
"Thank you, my Lord. I am very satisfied." Fang Jian bowed respectfully.
The Great Emperor Qinghua of the Eastern Pole smiled and said, "In addition to ten million merits, there are also more than a hundred kinds of treasures to reward you."
After the Eastern Qinghua Emperor finished speaking, a boy immediately came forward holding a jade plate, inside which was a light green storage bag.
Fang Jian took the storage bag from the jade plate, and immediately probed his spiritual sense into the storage bag, and was immediately dazzled by a flash of precious light.
There were more than a hundred kinds of treasures placed in the storage bag. There were one or two of each kind of treasure at most, and seven or eight at most. They were all rare and precious treasures in the world. It was a huge amount of money.
After Fang Jian put away his storage bag, he bowed to the Eastern Qinghua Emperor again and said, "I thank you, Great Lord."
The Great Emperor Qinghua of the Eastern Pole waved his hand and asked, "Since the merits you have described in your memorial are correct, I will send an envoy to the Western Heaven Palace to announce the reward."
After saying this, the Eastern Qinghua Emperor said to the Mingxu boy beside him, "Pass on my decree and order Taixuan Envoy Pinghan Zhenren to bring this decree and the reward to Xitian Mansion to announce the reward. There must be no mistake."
The Mingxu boy immediately bowed and replied, "I obey the order."
After the Mingxu boy left, the Eastern Qinghua Emperor looked at Fang Jian and said, "Okay, I'm fine here, but don't rush to leave. A fellow Taoist wants to see you."
Fang Jian was stunned when he heard this. Although the Emperor Dongji Qinghua did not say it explicitly, the person who asked the Emperor Dongji Qinghua to call him "Daoyou" and delivered the message must be of a status not lower than that of the Emperor Dongji Qinghua.
Thinking of this, Fang Jian bowed and asked, "May I ask, Great Master, who wishes to see me?"
The Great Emperor Qinghua of the Eastern Pole smiled slightly, then looked at Fang Jian and said, "Lord of the Divine Thunder Jade Palace, the ancestor of all acquired thunder, the Nine Heavens Yingyuan Thunder Sound Universal Transformation Heavenly Venerable."
When Fang Jian heard the name spoken by the Eastern Qinghua Emperor, he was stunned and did not react for a long time.
