Chief Taixuan of Taixuan Province was assassinated and fell, which immediately shocked all the major divine departments in heaven.
Just after Immortal Master Youguang was killed with just a stick of incense, the entire Tiefuling Mountains were surrounded by 10,000 Heavenly Soldiers and 1,000 Thunder Soldiers, and the original Yuan family's mountain-protecting formation had been removed and replaced by the Heavenly Court's. A formation of thick earth and rocks.
Xiang Yuan, the Prime Minister of the Beidou Expedition Department of the Lei Department, personally led the team, and together with Nan Tianfu's new Tian Junzi Lu and Shangshu Yue Fei, they controlled all the Yuan clan on Tiefu Ridge.
And now everyone in the Yuan family is monitored by heavenly generals and thunder generals in the palaces and courtyards, and the entire Yuan family is also controlled by heavenly soldiers.
Three hours later, Fang Jian also received the document handed over by Lei Bu, and immediately set out to take Hei Hai'er from the lower realm of heaven to the Yuan family in Tiefuling.
"Meet the True Lord Hongqing." Xiang Yuan, Zilu, and Yue Fei, the prime ministers of the Beidou Expedition Division of the Lei Department, all bowed to Fang Jianji's head.
Fang Jian waved his hand, and then asked Xiang Yuan: "Sir Xiang Yuan, which fellow Taoist was assassinated?"
Xiang Yuan reported: "Zhenjun Huihongqing is Taixuan Chief Immortal Master Youguang."
Youguang Immortal Master Fang Jianyou had the impression that he was a very good person, a conscientious official, and everything went smoothly. In particular, he was a first-grade immortal official.
"Who did it?" Fang Jian asked.
Xiang Yuan replied: "He is the third son of the patriarch of this cultivating immortal family, his name is Yuan Kequ, from the True Immortal Realm."
Fang Jian looked slightly surprised when he heard this, and immediately asked: "How did he assassinate fellow Taoist Youguang?"
Xiang Yuan was surprised by Fang Jian's keenness, but he quickly took out the two damaged magic weapons and said, "That's it, but it's damaged."
Fang Jian just took one look and confirmed his suspicion. He did not pick up the two damaged magic weapons, but said to Xiang Yuan: "Seal the evidence."
"Yes." Xiang Yuan sang, and then used his magic power to seal the evidence.
At this time, Fang Jian asked again: "Where are the people from the Yuan family?"
"Everyone is under control." Xiang Yuan said: "Including their clan leaders and elders, they have all been controlled and monitored by the Lei General and the Heavenly General."
Fang Jian nodded when he heard this, and then sneered: "No one has dared to openly assassinate the heavenly official for many years. Take me to see Yuan Ke."
"Yes." Xiang Yuan accepted the order, and then led Fang Jian to a courtyard with Zilu and Yue Fei.
When the heavenly soldiers on duty along the way saw Fang Jian, they immediately stood up solemnly and bowed their heads to Fang Jian. When Fang Jian entered the yard where Yuan Ke was detained, the two thunder generals in the yard immediately stood up and talked with the surrounding heavenly soldiers. Let's salute Fang Jian together.
"Zhenjun Hongqing." Lei Jiangzu Ti and Di Qing bowed to Fang Jian.
Fang Jian asked the two of them, "How was the interrogation?"
Zu Ti immediately took out a scroll of jade slips and said, "This is the interrogation record. I would like to ask Lord Hongqing to read it."
After Fang Jian took the jade slip, Zu Ti said: "Yuan Ke confessed to his actions, and he confessed that the Yuan family forced him to do this."
Having said this, Di Qing added: "However, based on the results of the soul-searching method we used on Yuan Ke, we found that what he said was wrong. The Yuan family did not force him to do this, but only forced him to become a Buddhist monk. And he suspected that his mother was killed by his father, so he wanted to take revenge on his family."
"Oh?" Fang Jian glanced at Zu Ti in surprise, then quickly browsed through the contents of the jade slip with his spiritual mind, and then said, "Take me to see Yuan Ke."
'Squeak'
The door opened with a soft cry. Yuan Ke, who was sitting in the room with his hands and feet tied by the Immortal Binding Rope, raised his head. His face was pale and his spirit was listless. This was the sequelae of being subjected to the soul-searching method.
Yuan Ke went to squint his eyes and saw a bright golden light flashing before his eyes, and then a majestic figure walked into the house where he was.
Behind him were the two thunder generals and the three gods who were the first to arrive with their army.
"Zhenjun Hongqing, he is Yuan Kequ." Yuan Ke went to see Zu Ti introducing himself to that stalwart man.
Yuan Ke went to squint his eyes and look at the man. Then his eyes were stung by the mighty golden light of the man. He quickly closed his eyes and shed tears.
"Yuan Ke, do you know the consequences of assassinating an immortal official from Heaven?" Fang Jian asked quietly.
Yuan Ke was not afraid because he was prepared, and he thought he had succeeded in bringing down Yuan Fengtai, Wan Yingshuang and the entire Yuan family.
"I know, the two thunder generals just said that their souls were scattered and their bodies were dead." Yuan Kepa paused for a moment before saying, "If it is left to the Lord Hongqing to deal with it, the clan may be exterminated." .”
Fang Jian listened to Yuan Kequ's tone and said calmly: "From your tone, you are not afraid?"
"Not afraid." Yuan Ke shook his head and said.
Fang Jian nodded, then shook the jade slip in his hand and said: "I read your interrogation record. You wanted to avenge your mother, so you deliberately assassinated the immortal official in order to drag the entire family down and be destroyed by heaven. ,Is it right?"
Yuan Ke was a little surprised, but he quickly thought that the spells cast by the two thunders on him just now should have peeked into his memory.
So Yuan Kequ no longer concealed anything, nodded directly and said: "Yes."
"Very good." Fang Jian nodded and said: "Then do you know that if Zhenjun Hongqing is to deal with it, the entire Yuan family, including your relatives, will be executed and their souls will be scattered, including yours who is already dead, and his soul will enter Mother of the underworld.”
"!!!!!!" Yuan Ke was shocked. He struggled twice, then looked at Fang Jian with a horrified look on his face and said, "No! She was already dead before this incident! This incident has nothing to do with her. !”
Fang Jian said coldly: "Oh? Really? I said she was related to this matter. Your assassination of the immortal official to take revenge on the family was the 'effect', and she was the 'cause'. Do you say she had nothing to do with this matter?" "
"She is innocent!" Yuan Ke went to shout loudly: "You can't treat an innocent person like this."
Fang Jian sneered and said, "Then you can assassinate a conscientious heavenly official at will?"
"He took bribes. He took bribes from Yuan Fengtai." Yuan Ke said.
At this time, Zu Ti said: "This is what happened. Yuan Fengtai prepared ten thousand-year-old Huangjing and wanted to give it to Taoist Youguang."
Fang Jian said: "But now there is no crime of bribery in the "Tian Tiao". It does not violate the Tian Tiao to receive gifts from monks in the lower realm of immortal officials."
Since the last restructuring of "Tian Tiao", there has been no crime of accepting bribes. Accepting gifts from immortal monks does not violate Tian Tiao. But there is one very strict rule, that is, after the immortal officials of heaven descend to the realm, they cannot manifest themselves as gods in front of mortals at will, let alone accept offerings and sacrifices from mortal beings. This is a serious crime.
After finishing speaking, Fang Jian said to Xiang Yuan: "Immediately send someone to the underworld to bring the soul of Yuan Ke's mother over."
"No!" Yuan Keqiu exclaimed: "She is innocent, she is really innocent! Please let her go!"
"Aren't you afraid?" Fang Jian looked at Yuan Ke and said coldly.
Yuan Kelu had tears streaming down his face. He looked at Fang Jian and said, "Everything I did was to avenge her. If I harm her, what's the point of everything I do?"
Fang Jian looked at Yuan Ke and said calmly: "Never be arrogant in front of the law of heaven. No matter gods, immortals, demons, or the three realms and six realms, I have all the ways to make you regret what you have done."
After finishing speaking, Fang Jian continued: "I judge the case according to the laws of heaven. The purpose of arresting your mother's soul is to make you understand that assassinating an immortal official in heaven is never something that can be easily forgiven. sin."
After the words fell, Fang Jian said to Zu Ti and Di Qing: "Continue the interrogation, focusing on how he bought that magic weapon, and the information about the person who sold him the magic weapon."
"Yes." Zu Ti and Di Qing immediately chanted and accepted the order.
After Fang Jian finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the room with Xiang Yuan and the others. Yuan Keqiu didn't react until then. He shouted loudly outside the room: "You are too cruel. My mother is innocent. She is innocent." Yes, she doesn’t deserve this kind of punishment!”
"You can't do this!"
"You can't be so cruel to an innocent person!"
Hearing Yuan Kequ's roar, Zu Ti said calmly: "It's useless for you to tell Zhenjun Hongqing."
When Yuan Ke went to hear this, his voice suddenly stopped in the middle of cursing, as if something was suddenly stuck in his throat.
Then Yuan Ke went to look at Zu Ti and said with a shocked face: "Is he the True Lord Hongqing you call him?"
"That's right." Zu Ti looked at Yuan Ke and said, "Congratulations on your success. I don't know whether the Yuan family will be exterminated, but I know that many people will die."
In the Yuan Clan's main hall, except Yuan Kequ, the Yuan Clan's patriarchs, elders and all core personnel were all brought here.
They were not locked by the immortal rope, but they stood there tremblingly under the surveillance of the surrounding heavenly generals and soldiers, not daring to move.
When Fang Jian led Xiang Yuan, Zilu, and Yue Fei into the hall, all the heavenly soldiers and generals saluted in unison.
Although Yuan Fengtai and others had just arrived in the world of Jamfu and had not heard of Fang Jian's name, they saw the attitude of these heavenly soldiers and generals, as well as the fact that Lian Xiang Yuan, Nantian Junzilu and others were following Fang Jian, and they immediately judged that It became clear that the person in front of him was definitely not an ordinary immortal official.
So Yuan Fengtai also immediately bowed to Fang Jianji and said, "Meet the Lord." And the Yuan clan members behind him also bowed in unison.
Fang Jian walked straight to the top of the hall and sat down. Xiang Yuan, Zi Lu, and Yue Fei stood on one side, and Hei Haier stood behind Fang Jian.
Fang Jian looked at the heavenly soldiers and generals, Yuan Fengtai and others who were bowing around him, and said calmly: "Ping Shen."
"Thank you, Lord Hongqing."
"Thank God."
Then Fang Jian no longer paid attention to the Yuan clan members, but took a roll of jade slips from a heavenly general. Yuan Fengtai could see clearly from below that the jade slips turned out to be the genealogy jade slips in the Yuan clan's ancestral hall.
"I report to True Lord Hongqing that the Yuan clan has six major clans. Yuan Fengtai is the clan leader. The other five major clans each have an elder. Then there are three collateral clans without elders. Therefore, the Yuan clan has nine major clans in total." He reported to Fang Jian.
Fang Jian raised his eyebrows when he heard this and said, "So there are nine clans in the Yuan clan."
"Hui Zhenjun, yes." The general said.
Cold sweat oozed from Yuan Fengtai's forehead. He didn't know why Fang Jian wanted to see the genealogy list of his nine Yuan clans, but he already had a vague premonition in his heart.
At this moment, Lei Jiang, who went to the underworld to capture the soul, came back and sent the soul of Yuan Kequ's mother 'Zhen Yan' directly to the Yuan clan's main hall.
Seeing Zhen Yan's soul being escorted over by Lei Jiang, Yuan Fengtai, Wan Yingshuang and the fifth elders below were all shocked.
They obviously sealed Zhen Yan's soul, why can they still find it?
It's not like they haven't thought about breaking up Zhen Yan's soul, but breaking up the soul will attract the attention of the underworld. After all, the soul belongs to the underworld. A soul can wander in the world, become a lonely ghost, and can be sealed and suppressed in a certain place. Department, the underworld will collect it when it has time.
But if a soul is directly dispersed, the underworld will be held accountable. Dispersing the soul is a serious crime even in the "Articles of Heaven", and the karma of heaven is so great that even the real demons of the outside world dare not easily disperse the soul of a living being. .
But Zhen Yan was an exception. Not long after her soul was sealed by Yuan Fengtai and others and suppressed at the foot of the mountain, she was discovered by a ghost missionary.
So the ghost messenger used the underworld's unique soul-capturing method to bring Zhen Yan and the seal back to the underworld, and the seal was released by Luo Feng, the six-day palace guard.
That's why Yuan Fengtai and others were so surprised. After Zhen Yan was brought to the main hall by Lei General, she had already walked around the underworld and knew the majesty of heaven. After being brought to Fang Jian, her body as a ghost was just Feeling the power of Fang Jian, he immediately bowed his head and said, "Zhen Yan pays homage to all the gods."
"Zhen Yan, how did you die?" Fang Jian asked Zhen Yan.
When Zhen Yan heard this, she immediately raised her head, but she only glanced at Fang Jian before she was dizzy by the divine light on his body and lowered her head in a hurry.
"Look behind you." Fang Jian said to Zhen Yan.
Zhen Yan quickly looked back. When he saw Yuan Fengtai and the Yuan clan members behind her, her eyes immediately burst into anger, "Yuan Fengtai! I have never done anything sorry for you, why do you want to kill me?" ?!”
Yuan Fengtai swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and Zhen Yan was filled with resentment and ghostly aura. She pointed at Yuan Fengtai and the fifth elder and said, "Gods, it's me they killed, it's me they killed!"
Yuan Fengtai trembled when he heard Zhen Yan's identification, and immediately said to Fang Jian: "Shangshen, it was us who killed her, but the assassination of Youguang, the Supreme Immortal, had nothing to do with us."
"Yes, God, it has nothing to do with us."
"We were harmed by that evil beast Yuan Kequ."
"We were wronged."
At this time, Yuan Fengtai shouted again: "God, we have been transformed by the Buddhist Jinding Immortal and entered the world of Jambu from the upper world. Please look at the face of Jinding Immortal and make decisions for us. .”
"Please God, please make the decision for us!" Everyone in the Yuan family immediately shouted loudly.
Zhen Yan's ghost was completely stunned at this moment. She thought that these gods were responsible for her unjust death, but now it seems that is not the case. Her son Yuan Ke was also involved in this, and there was something else about the assassination of Youguang Shangxian. ?
But after Fang Jian heard Yuan Fengtai and others' cries of injustice, he said to Xiang Yuan: "Immediately pass on my decree and declare that the Golden Summit Immortal of Buddhism is here to see you!"
When Xiang Yuan heard this, he immediately sang in a respectful voice: "I will obey the law."
