LGHTNOVELBOOK Chapter 1441 Tiansheng Blood Case
In Tiansheng City, the sun rises again.
A large number of mortals living in Tiansheng City woke up, and the whole city became extremely lively with the activities of these mortals.
"Did you hear any noise coming from Prime Minister Wei's house last night?"
Near Wei Wenyuan's residence, two middle-aged men in silk robes were whispering, with a look of fear on their faces.
"Shh, keep your voice down. I seemed to hear fighting and screaming last night. It seems that something happened at the Wei family."
The other man looked around nervously, afraid to be heard.
"Is this true? Prime Minister Wei has been the prime minister for three dynasties. Apart from the eight pillars of the country in the prison today, who in the entire Great Xuantian dares to touch him?"
The first man was skeptical, but there was a hint of worry in his tone.
"Who knows? The situation in Great Xuantian has been so chaotic recently. I heard that His Majesty the Immortal Emperor is going to take action against the eight major families despite all the opposition. As the first family under the eight major families, the Wei family may not be able to escape the disaster."
The second man shook his head, a hint of sympathy in his eyes.
The two were chatting and happened to pass by Wei's mansion.
Suddenly, the door of Wei Mansion was pushed open, and several people in official uniforms hurried out with solemn faces and a roll of yellow silk in their hands. They were obviously messengers from the palace.
"It seems to be true. Someone has come from the palace."
The first man gasped and whispered.
"This time, the Wei family may really be finished."
There was a slight tremor in the second man's voice, and it seemed that he had a close relationship with the Wei family.
The messenger from the palace did not stop, but walked directly to the gate of the Wei family and read aloud the decree written on the yellow silk.
"The Emperor, by the Mandate of Heaven, proclaims: Wei Wenyuan colluded with the Eight Pillars of the State and plotted evil. His crimes are extremely serious. Now that his crimes have been verified, his entire family is hereby executed and sent to reincarnation as a warning to others."
"All of his property will be confiscated into the national treasury, and his family members will be exiled to Juemokou to guard the ancient great demon forever. No pardon will be given!"
"Appreciate this!"
The messenger's voice echoed in front of the Wei family's gate, and the people around could hear it clearly.
After he finished speaking, while everyone was still in a daze, a group of guards in black clothes filed out from the Wei family and pushed a huge iron cage together.
The iron cages were filled with corpses with disheveled hair, bloodstained faces, scars all over the body, and some even missing arms and legs. They were obviously the collateral relatives of the Wei family who were exiled to Juemokou.
When the people around saw this scene, they all gasped.
The curious people spread what they saw, and soon the news spread throughout the streets and alleys.
......
In the imperial garden deep in the palace, a melodious flute sound came from the lake.
Luo Fengtian and the mysterious man were resting in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, with a pair of beautiful palace maids beside them.
One of the palace maids held a jade plate filled with fresh fruits and exquisite snacks, while the other palace maid held a jade pot and gently poured the amber nectar into the jade cup in front of the mysterious man.
Luo Fengtian put down the flute in his hand, looked at the mysterious man leaning against the pavilion pillar in front of him, hesitated for a while, and finally asked the doubts in his heart.
"Why should we let the Wei family's side branches go and let them guard the great demon at Juemokou?"
"What if these people are bewitched by the great demon inside and completely turn to the devil's way? Wouldn't that be good intentions leading to bad consequences?"
The mysterious man played with the tiny gemstones on the jade cup in his hand, without turning around, and said lightly.
"I gained some benefits from that person some time ago. These members of the Wei family are my reward to him."
Hearing this, Luo Fengtian raised his eyebrows slightly and showed a look of surprise.
"You...you actually made a deal with that great demon?"
After he took the throne of the Great Xuantian Immortal Emperor, he naturally investigated the great demon that Juemo said he had suppressed.
According to historical records, the great demon was an extremely vicious person in ancient times. He achieved enlightenment through killing, his methods were extremely cruel, and his cultivation was unfathomable. He was an invincible existence in that era.
However, such a strong man offended the way of heaven and was burned by endless fire of karma. Eventually, his body collapsed and his soul dissipated between heaven and earth.
But according to legend, part of the powerful man's soul managed to escape, entered the cycle of reincarnation, and by chance, obtained an innate demon body, which enabled him to make a comeback and stir up bloody storm once again.
In the end, it was the Immortal Emperor when the Great Xuantian was just established, who joined forces with the Eight Pillar States under his command, who had not yet shown any second thoughts, and suppressed him in the mouth of Jue Mo, where he would never be reborn.
Luo Fengtian never expected that the mysterious man would actually have a deal with such a vicious person.
"You only know one, but not the other."
The mysterious man chuckled, finally looked up at Luo Fengtian, and explained patiently.
"This great demon did achieve enlightenment through killing, but when he was in that era, the entire Tianchen Realm was in chaos. Everyone was fighting for survival, and there was no distinction between good and evil."
"He rose from obscurity, killing people all the way, and eventually became the most powerful being of that era. At this level, he naturally wanted to find a way to ascend to heaven like us."
When Luo Fengtian heard this, he suddenly understood what the mysterious man meant.
"Is this person also restricted by this damn heavenly law and failed at the critical moment?"
The mysterious man nodded, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.
"You can say that."
"He was indeed a genius back then, and he achieved the state of Mahayana perfection along the way, but it took him more than 30,000 years to consolidate it, which was a thousand years earlier than the two of us. He was full of confidence and tried to challenge the Heavenly Dao, but he was still beaten back to reality by Him."
When Luo Fengtian heard this, he couldn't help but gasp.
Although he knew that the demon was extremely powerful, he did not expect him to be so strong.
To achieve the state of Mahayana perfection in just 30,000 years is a rare talent, even in the history of the entire Tianchen Realm.
"He has been suppressed in Jue Mo Kou until now, and he has indeed lost most of his humanity, but it is undeniable that he is also a senior who has challenged the way of heaven."
"I met him at the beginning because I wanted to learn more about the details of the process from him so that our plan could be more comprehensive."
The mysterious man continued, his eyes revealing respect for the great demon, but also a subtle fear.
Luo Fengtian was silent. He knew what "plan" the mysterious man was referring to.
Both of them are eager to break through the existing constraints and reach a higher level, and the experience of the great demon may provide them with some valuable experience and lessons.
"What did you get from him?"
Luo Fengtian asked, with a hint of urgency in his voice.
The mysterious man smiled slightly, with a hint of pride in his eyes.
"Some secrets about the way of heaven, and some ancient cultivation methods."
"After this matter is over, I will go find those old guys who have studied the way of heaven and ancient methods to confirm the reliability of this information. If it is helpful, I will come back and let everyone know."
Luo Fengtian nodded. He knew the abilities that the mysterious man possessed, and also vaguely knew some of the "old guys" that the mysterious man mentioned.
"So when are you going to leave?"
The mysterious man smiled and leaned back against the pillar of the pavilion in the middle of the lake.
"No hurry. I will set off again after your affairs are concluded and Little Li from the Sword Sect returns to Tiansheng City."
Luo Fengtian laughed when he heard this.
"You, you really care about Zhou Yiqiao. You are afraid that he might have an accident."
The mysterious man shook his head and said calmly.
"He is the key to our plan. If I let him go, I'm afraid you'll be the first one to disagree."
Luo Fengtian smiled and said nothing more.
The two then chatted about many topics related to the developments of various parties in the Tianchen Realm, until a palace maid beside them reminded Luo Fengtian that it was time to handle government affairs, and then they finally stopped communicating.
The mysterious man disappeared in the pavilion in the middle of the lake. Luo Fengtian stood up and stretched. He looked up and patted the foreheads of the two palace maids. He cleared the two women of the content of the conversation between the two and walked out of the imperial garden.
......
At the same time, Zhu Changfu, who entered the palace to report the results of the day's battle to Luo Fengtian, happened to meet Zhou Yiqiao who was walking in the Immortal Emperor Palace.
Zhu Changfu felt mixed emotions when he saw this young man who changed his destiny with just one sentence.
He walked forward and bowed respectfully to Zhou Yiqiao.
"Mr. Zhou, seeing you today, I am filled with emotion."
There was a slight tremor in Zhu Changfu's voice, and it was obvious that he was not calm inside.
Zhou Yiqiao stopped, turned around, looked at Zhu Changfu and smiled slightly.
"Master Zhu, there is no need to be so polite. It is your own good fortune that you have been favored by His Majesty."
Zhu Changfu shook his head with a complicated expression.
"If it weren't for Mr. Zhou's recommendation, I would probably be a prisoner now. I will always remember this kindness."
Zhou Yiqiao waved his hand and didn't take it seriously.
"Lord Zhu, your words are too serious. I am only discussing the matter at hand. Your Majesty's decision is the key."
Zhu Changfu took a deep breath and seemed to have made up his mind.
"Mr. Zhou, although I am not talented, I understand the principle of repaying kindness. If you need me in the future, please let me know."
Zhou Yiqiao looked at Zhu Changfu, a gleam of light in his eyes.
As luck would have it, he was in need of help from others at that moment.
Thinking of this, he didn't keep anyone in suspense and just expressed his doubts directly.
"Mr. Zhou, do you want me to give you some advice on the physical training field?"
Zhu Changfu looked at Zhou Yiqiao with some surprise, as if he didn't expect Zhou Yiqiao to ask such a simple question.
"Yes, the reward I asked for from His Majesty is a place suitable for physical training."
"Master Zhu has been the prefect of Tiansheng Prefecture for so many years, so I believe your understanding of Daxuantian is far beyond that of ordinary people. I wonder if you can recommend a place suitable for me to practice the method of body forging?"
Zhu Changfu laughed and agreed without any hesitation.
"Since Master Zhou needs help, I will tell you everything I know!"
