In the Heavenly Palace, outside the four gates, there is a monument with inscriptions.
"Since Santan Haihui Zhenjun violated the Heavenly Law and assaulted the Immortal Master Yan Hui, the Grand Envoy of Taixuandu Province, causing him to suffer severe disability, the Judicial God Hongqing Zhenjun sentenced him to thirty thunder whips according to Heavenly Law and stripped him of his position as the Immortal Venerable of the Unified Heavens."
When Tongchengyuan published this announcement on the Tongwen Stele, it immediately attracted the attention of many gods in heaven.
"Is it really a punishment?" Immortal Master Youyuan said in surprise after seeing this announcement.
Immortal Master Li Ye paused for a moment and said, "This True Lord Hongqing is truly meticulous in his application of the Heavenly Laws."
The gods and immortal officials watching around nodded in agreement. Someone then said, "It's just that True Lord Santan Haihui is too bold. He actually dared to use his black fist against Immortal Master Yan Hui."
Immortal Master Youyuan and Immortal Master Li Ye turned their heads and saw several younger immortal officials discussing Nezha's courage.
Someone else said, "This isn't the first time you've witnessed the temper of the Three Altars and Sea Assembly True Lord. Apart from the Emperors, is there anyone in the Three Realms that he's afraid of?"
"Now we have it, True Lord Hongqing." said a fifth-rank immortal official.
Another fifth-rank immortal official said, "Based on True Lord Santan Haihui's personality, he's not afraid of True Lord Hongqing, but he might be wary of him in the future."
"It's bad, it's bad." The Little Emperor of Dongji Qinghua raised his hand to stop Pei Lan, saying, "Wang Yangming, the head priest of Zhoushan Taoist Temple, has sent you a memorial, hoping to hire him to concurrently serve as the head of the 'Tongwen Monument' at Zhoushan Taoist Temple."
"General Qu Daoping pays his respects to Hongqing Taixuan." Pei Lanyuan came before the True Lord and bowed.
Qu Daoping was feeling depressed and was about to agree when he suddenly thought of something. He immediately bowed and said, "That's what I wish for."
But when Pei Lan just rode the Eighth Prince out of the Shenxiao Jade Palace, he saw Pei Lanyuan waiting behind him. Before Qu Daoping saw Pei Lan coming out, he immediately straightened his body solemnly and walked slowly to greet him.
Qu Daoping's face darkened when he heard this, and he said, "I've run into some trouble."
Fangjian Province and Tianshu Province are typical departments with one civil and one military. However, for us first-rank immortal officials, the division is not so clear.
"Thank you, Hongqing Taixuan." Qu Daoping bowed his head, then stood up and said, "Your Excellency, Hongqing Pei Lan, the general has something to ask of me, and I would like to ask Hongqing Taixuan to take charge."
The immortal officials who made way around saw the majestic heavenly general, their eyes full of admiration and envy. This was a super-class, a chasm, a natural moat. Only by crossing it could one truly retreat into the 'ruling class' of heaven.
Before the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King left, the Little Emperor of East Pole Qinghua looked at the True Lord and said with a smile, "True Lord, what is his plan for keeping Nezha in Heaven?"
Thinking of that, Qu Daoping became melancholy again. Although he was a super-class general in the heavens, and was an existence that others could only dream of and reach, to a small figure like Nezha, he was still just a big ant.
Li Yesian, Master Youyuan, and Master Zhang Luyuan turned their heads and saw a golden light coming straight towards them. Then a short heavenly general wearing golden armor and holding a long sword at his waist walked towards them.
Just before the eight people greeted each other, the crowd surrounding Chen Jiantang suddenly became a commotion, and everyone instinctively made way.
The Young Emperor of East Pole Qinghua said, "That's inevitable. He should know that within Zhoushan Daoyuan, there are neither disciples of minor Daoist virtues, scattered immortals of low cultivation, nor descendants of celestial officials, nor disciples of minor gods from various directions. It can't be said that the background is simple, but there are even fewer outside. Furthermore, there are these great cultivators and great monsters without any power background. It is inevitable that they will be bullied by these students with less powerful backgrounds."
The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King dared not neglect his duties, so he immediately got off his chariot and went back to the Shenxiao Hall of the Shenxiao Palace to meet the young Emperor Qinghua of Dongji.
"Discipline issues?" The True Lord wasn't surprised. "How long has Zhoushan Taoist Temple been established? Doesn't that mean there aren't any discipline issues?"
"Oh?" Pei Lan was slightly surprised when he heard that. He then said, "This is not the place to discuss matters. I'll follow you to Haotian Palace."
However, as the Recorder of the Heavenly Priests, Li Yesian naturally knew that Heavenly General. I slowly stepped down and bowed to this super Heavenly General, saying, "I am Li Yesian, and I am honored to meet General Chen."
Qu Daoping said, "It's about the Yuying clan, uh, not the clan leader Ying Kaixuan."
"You..." Qu Daoping was about to speak, but froze for a moment. Then he looked at Chen Jiantang and said, "Look, they're all gathered outside. Doesn't Pei Lanyuan have any announcements today?"
The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King bowed and said, "Your subject shall obey the command of the law."
"Stand up." The young emperor Qinghua of Dongji sat low on the Qingyun and spoke.
Pei Lanyuan smiled and nodded, then turned around to say goodbye to Master Youyuan and Master Zhang Luyuan, and then left Chen Jiantang with Qu Daoping.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King stood up, but found that the True Lord was also there, standing beside him.
"Oh?" Li Yesian raised his eyebrows. "Why are you returning to Heaven?"
Qu Daoping was delighted when he heard this. It meant Pei Lan was willing to take care of the matter, or at least to listen to the whole story. I immediately bowed and said, "Yes."
The young emperor of Dongji Qinghua said with a smile: "The master of Tongwenbei, will he do it or not? You have to give him an answer."
It turned out that this person was Li Yexian, the 'Tianshu Dulu' of Tianshu Province. Pei Lanyuan saw Master Youyuan and Master Zhangluyuan and bowed in return, saying, "So it's you, Daoist Fellow Youyuan and Daoist Fellow Li Ye. My apologies."
Li Yexian smiled and said, "Yes, Taixuan of the Eight Altars Sea Association was punished."
"Haha." The little emperor of Dongji Qinghua smiled slightly and said, "Is that so?"
Before the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King came out of Nezha's Immortal Palace, he received an imperial edict from the Shenxiao Jade Palace, ordering me to go to the Shenxiao Immortal Palace immediately to meet the Young Emperor Dongji Qinghua.
