"Two fellow Taoists, take a look."
Hei Haier retrieved the memories of Gu Yuanwu and ten other people and immediately reported them to Fang Jian. After Fang Jian looked at the spiritual reflections of Gu Yuanwu and others' memories, he immediately presented them to Jiuzhen Tianjun and Jian He and said.
After seeing these spiritual photos of Gu Jin and the other five, Jiuzhen Tianjun's face suddenly became extremely solemn, and Jian He was even more furious after reading them. "How audacious! Inhumane!"
It turns out that in the memories of Gu Yuanwu and others, there are not only their own memories about what Gu Jin and others did, but also the extracted memories of Gu Jin and others.
These included the crimes of capturing the demon cultivators in the Dianjin Mountain Immortal Pond to engage in bloody battles, extracting the root bones of the little demons, spreading the "Anti-Heavenly Treasure Strategy", and deliberately burning the archives of the East Heaven Palace.
Of course, it was Gu Jin and his men who extracted the memories of little demons like Bai Bai. It was not difficult for a cultivator in the True Immortal Realm to extract the memories of people who had not yet become immortals, but to extract the memories of people who had become immortals, one had to reach the level of Golden Immortal.
As soon as Fang Jian took the Dingyuan Pearl, Gu Yuanwu and others immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
Lian Cong's wife, Lu Lan, said, "Master Hongqing, we are responsible for all the mistakes we made in raising our son. Please forgive them, Master Hongqing. We are willing to take the punishment on our son's behalf."
Wang Chou also pleaded, "Please, Master Hongqing, please show some mercy. They are just children after all."
Gu Yuanwu said, "Master Hongqing, children are ignorant. Considering the many contributions we have made to the Heavenly Court, I beg Master Hongqing to show some mercy. We are willing to bear all the punishment for our sins."
Then the parents of Gu Jin and the others pleaded in unison, "Please, Master Hongqing, have mercy on me."
Gu Jin and the other four knelt on the ground without saying a word, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads as they listened to their parents' pleading.
"who I am?"
Just as Gu Yuanwu and others were begging for mercy, Fang Jian suddenly asked everyone this question, which confused Gu Yuanwu and others.
It was Jiuzhen Tianjun and Taiyi Lei Tingsi Shangxiang Jianhe who reacted first. They looked at each other, then shook their heads and sighed.
"I don't think you need to take the blame for your son. The most important thing for a family is to be whole and sound." Fang Jian said in a stern tone.
Hearing Fang Jian's words, Gu Yuanwu and others were suddenly shocked. Now they understood what Fang Jian meant by that question.
Who is he? He's Fang Jian, the True Lord of Hongqing. You've violated the Heavenly Law and fallen into his hands, and you still want to plead for mercy? Has he ever let anyone who violated the Heavenly Law go free since he became the Heavenly Judge? Will pleading for mercy be effective?
At this time, Huo Yi, the Supreme Minister of the Northern Emperor's Thunder Division, had already entered the Thunder Hall with his thunder soldiers and generals. He bowed to Fang Jian and said, "True Lord Hongqing."
Fang Jian returned the greeting with a bow, then pointed at Gu Yuanwu and the others below and said, "Prime Minister Huo Yi, please quickly apprehend the criminals in this hall who have violated the Heavenly Law."
"I obey the order of the law." Huo Yi bowed, then raised his hand and waved it, and twenty thunder generals came forward and arrested Gu Yuanwu and his wife, Wan Sheng and his wife, Lian Cong and his wife, Jiang Shi and his wife, Wang Chou and his wife, and others, who looked as pale as death.
Then another team of thunder soldiers came forward, captured Gu Jin, Wan Tan, Lian Xia, Jiang Jing, and Wang Wei, and tied them up with the Immortal Binding Rope.
At this time, Gu Jin and the other five finally felt scared and quickly turned around and shouted to their parents behind them: "Dad, Mom, help me!"
"Dad, Mom, save me."
"I was scared. I was wrong. I will never do it again."
Hearing their son's terrified cries, Gu Yuanwu and the others felt their hearts aching. Suddenly, Wan Sheng, the second recorder of the Tianshu Bureau, suddenly raised his head and shouted at Fang Jian, "True Lord Hongqing, I want to atone for my sins with my merits!"
As Wan Sheng finished speaking, Gu Yuanwu and his wife, Lian Cong and his wife, Jiang Shi and his wife, and Wang Chou and his wife all reacted suddenly and shouted, "Master Hongqing, we will use our merits to atone for our sins."
Fang Jian frowned upon hearing this, but he could do nothing about it, as using merit to atone for sins was a Heavenly Rule decreed by the Jade Emperor. Therefore, Fang Jian could only reluctantly say, "Approved. Announce the Redemption Envoy of Taishi Xiandu to Immortal Meng Ling."
Zhenren Meng Ling, a Taoist of Taiyi Xuanxian, is the redemption envoy of Taishi Xiandu and a first-rank immortal official.
She wore a dark blue jade sand Taoist robe, a purple gold crown on her head, a golden book of merit in her left hand, and a golden pen of merit in her right hand. After arriving at the Thunder Palace, she bowed to Fang Jian and said, "Greetings to the True Lord Hongqing."
Fang Jian nodded slightly, and presented the charges against Gu Yuanwu and the others to Master Meng Ling, saying, "Master Meng Ling, these are the charges against Gu Yuanwu and the others. They must atone for their sins with merit."
Master Meng Ling took the charge, and after carefully examining it, her brows furrowed slightly. She saw that there were three major charges against Gu Yuanwu and the others:
His first crime was that he failed to educate his son properly, causing his son to commit evil in the underworld and harm living beings in the mortal world.
His second crime was that after his son violated the Heavenly Law, he not only did not report it to the Ministry of Thunder, but instead protected and shielded him everywhere, and used his position to help him cover up the crime.
His third crime was keeping his mouth shut and leaking the secrets of the heavenly soldiers and generals, which led to his son compiling the "Anti-Heavenly Strategy" and spreading it to the world, causing great harm.
Attached to these three major crimes were detailed charges. After reading them, Master Meng Ling's expression gradually became solemn.
"Please wait a moment, True Lord Hongqing. Let me calculate carefully." After saying this, True Man Meng Ling began to calculate. After about a cup of tea, True Man Meng Ling said, "To atone for all sins, 3.96 million merits are required."
After saying this, Master Meng Ling turned to Gu Yuanwu and the others and asked, "Do you have 3.96 million merits?"
"That's 3.96 million merits for one person." Master Meng Ling added.
Upon hearing this, Gu Yuanwu and the others looked at each other in bewilderment. No one responded for a long moment, but then Master Meng Ling pressed them, "Hurry and bring out the Immortal Official Jade Certificate and the Immortal Scroll Gold Seal. I'll deduct your merits."
