Chapter 216 Ling Xiao's Order
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
In the heaven, at the nameless immortal mountain, it was still that pavilion, and it was still that chessboard that was halfway through the game and filled with murderous intent.
But this time, in addition to Wei Tianjun and the Third Prince playing chess, there was an extra person watching the game.
At this moment, it was the turn of the Third Prince to make a move. Seeing that the big dragon belonging to him on the chessboard was once again held at the vital point by Lao Wei's sword, he did not ponder as usual, but instead made a move casually.
It can be seen that the Third Prince's mind is not on the chessboard at all at the moment.
In the Third Prince's hand, there was an official document made in the style of the Black Law Department with black background and mysterious characters. It was obvious that it was the content of this document that made the Third Prince laugh so loudly.
"Hey, Old Wei, what's going on with your Black Law Division?"
The Third Prince laughed wantonly and narrowly, winking and saying, "Is this the second time?"
"Last time, I used your youngsters to attack you and burned down a library, but I just killed a Taoist boy without causing any harm."
"This time it's even more powerful. We are going to destroy the foundation of your Black Law Division."
"Hahahahahaha!"
When he thought of this, the Third Prince smiled even more happily.
He was not laughing at Lao Wei, but at those idiots in the Tianren system.
After so many years, there are still people who don't learn their lesson and insist on picking on Lao Wei.
Do you really think that the titles of North Pole Junior Court, Black Law Patriarch, and Western Palace Censor were given for nothing?
You know, now that Ziwei is not out, the entire North Pole system, except for Marshal Tianpeng, is only this person.
Even if we put aside everything else and only look at Lao Wei's own strength.
If they were to compete in a duel, the odds between Lao Wei and Nezha would be about 3:7, and he would definitely be able to defeat Lao Wei.
But if it is a life-and-death fight, I will never give in...
Although the Third Prince had never tried it, he knew very well that the chances of winning would be reduced to 50-50.
Fighting the Black Law Mage to the death, or fighting to the end, most people with common sense would not do such a thing.
"Tell me, what do those old men in the Tianren School think?"
When the Third Prince saw that Lao Wei didn't say anything, he turned his head and looked aside as if he was immersed in the chess game, ignoring the other spectators.
Seeing that this person didn't say anything, the Third Prince rolled his eyes and poked the man's arm.
"How do you know if the seniors are still in charge now?"
The chess spectator came to his senses and replied with a smile.
There are also many factions within the Tianren system.
"Why are you being so polite to them?"
The Third Prince waved his hands in boredom and said, "Besides, how come you, who rarely even came to the Heavenly Palace before, know more than me?"
The chess spectator still had a smile on his face that could charm countless fairies, but that smile was somewhat helpless: "If you face countless documents every day, you will soon understand."
"The Heaven Palace is too big, there are too many people, their minds are too complicated, and things are too confusing."
The spectator used four Tai in succession to express his helplessness and sorrow, but the next moment he changed the subject: "Sometimes I really want to chop them all off and create a new heaven."
In a word, his arrogant, overstepping, violent and murderous nature was fully exposed.
Wei Tianjun finally made a move. He raised his head, took the document from the Third Prince's hand, but his eyes fell on the person watching the game.
"You are just complaining to me, please don't spread it."
The chess spectator, who was called the True Lord, laughed sternly and said, "It's good to hear that. It would be best if you could drive me out of heaven as soon as possible."
"Even if I were to be suppressed for five hundred years like that monkey, it would still be better than what I am doing now."
As he spoke, he seemed to have opened up a chatterbox. He slapped the stone table and said angrily, "He left without saying a word and left such a mess behind."
"I have enjoyed the Infinite Great Dao for so many years, and have been the Supreme of the Three Realms for countless epochs, but I can't even give birth to a son. In the end, the child was born to me. It's really..."
Wei Tianjun could only pretend that he didn't hear this. Even the Third Prince lowered his head and looked down. The two great gods who were famous in the three realms had some pain on their faces at this moment.
If there is, people will say it's okay. After all, to put it bluntly, it's the younger generation being disrespectful to the elder. It's just a matter of a flying kick - being stuck to the wall of the Lingxiao Palace and unable to be removed is something that this True Lord has experienced before.
But if they were to talk to each other, it would be slandering the emperor, disrespecting superiors, and it would be a crime of treason and punishable by death.
Therefore, even the third prince, who has always been lawless, did not dare to take up this issue.
"Old Wei, what are you going to do about this?"
The Third Prince changed the subject. He could see that his Second Brother was definitely feeling very depressed, but there were some things he couldn't really tell outsiders.
In the end, they were the only ones left to listen to the complaints.
His relationship with Nezha is no different from that of a real brother. Lao Wei is a close friend who shares the same interests.
After all, the three people sitting at this table are all competing with each other.
"It depends on what the Master wants."
Wei Tianjun's eyes fell on Zhenjun again and he said, "If you want to be safe in this matter, Zhenjun will just have to reprimand me. At most, I will have to be more cautious."
"if……"
Wei Tianjun did not say what came next, but the other two knew what he meant.
If you don't seek stability, then the Black Law Division will have to let other immortals and gods see what a madman really is.
"Um……"
Zhenjun lowered his head, seemingly in deep thought.
The Third Prince standing by was dumbfounded and couldn't help asking, "Second Brother, are you really going to lift it up high and then put it down gently?"
He was a little bit unbelievable, after all, this was totally not his second brother's character.
But...even though it's frustrating, it's also understandable.
After all, in today's heaven, almost 80% of the chores are borne by the second brother.
The Emperor of Ziwei lives in seclusion. Unless the Heavenly Court is in complete chaos and comes to a standstill, it can be predicted that this great god will not easily issue an edict.
The daughters of the Great Heavenly Master have never had any experience in governing, and it is not in accordance with the rules for Old Taibai to be in charge.
In the end, it all fell on the second brother.
All these trivial matters affect the entire body. It should be difficult for the second brother too, right?
I just feel a little sorry for Lao Wei.
After all, with the independence of the Arctic Exorcism Institute and the presence of Tianpeng to guard it, the Arctic faction can be said to be the most stable and largest faction in the Heavenly Court.
Old Wei could have just gathered all the mages from the Black Law Division and attacked them directly without saying hello to anyone.
But he still asked the Third Prince to invite Zhenjun under the pretext of playing chess.
The purpose is to see how the actual "young prince" of heaven will deal with this matter.
In Lao Wei's heart, or in the hearts of the gods who really do things, maintaining stability is the top priority at the moment.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
At this time, the True Lord raised his head and said with a wicked smile, "You two don't really think that I am going to just reprimand you and let it go, do you?"
As he spoke, Zhenjun stood up, his tone still frivolous, but his words were full of murderous intent.
"In the final analysis, it is the Tianren faction that is further disrupting the situation."
"You want to use the current chaos in the Three Realms to threaten us not to cause more trouble, and then lift us up high and let us go easily?"
"Do you underestimate me, Yang Jian?"
As he spoke, Qingyuan Miaodao Zhenjun, the actual "Young Prince" Yang Jian of the Heavenly Palace, turned around and looked at the Third Prince and Old Wei.
"Old Wei, Lingxiao Palace has issued an order. No matter what you do, I will bear all the consequences for you."
There was a smile on Yang Jian's lips, a cold smile.
"It is precisely because the current situation is chaotic that we should take drastic measures!"
"These three great realms lack everything except people who can become immortals and gods!"
"Just cut the Gordian knot."
As soon as these words came out, the Third Prince nodded frantically, looking pleased. That's right, this is the second brother he knew. When did the second brother accept threats and compromise?
The Third Prince was thinking, but he saw Old Wei frowning, so he couldn't help but ask, "Old Wei, why are you looking so miserable?"
Wei Tianjun did not answer immediately, but remained silent for a while before he looked up and said, "Not good."
"What's wrong?"
The third prince asked curiously.
On the contrary, Yang Jian stared at Lao Wei with a smile on his face, which was unclear whether it was relief or helplessness.
"It's not good to make a big fuss."
Wei Tianjun shook his head, and in the puzzled look of the Third Prince, he said in a deep voice: "The balance can be temporarily broken, but it cannot be lost for a long time."
“I have to admit that there are many gods and immortals in the heavens who really do things.”
"If the Black Law Department uses Ling Xiao's imperial edict to do this, although it is reasonable, legal and compliant, it will ultimately allow the Black Law Department's power to expand to areas that it should not touch."
"This is not good."
The Third Prince frowned and looked at Old Wei for a long time before he said, "Old Wei, have you been oppressed by the Black Law for too long? This is not you."
"You were..."
"brother."
Yang Jian interrupted the Third Prince, looked at Wei Tianjun, and asked, "What does Tianjun mean?"
This statement represented that this was not a discussion between friends, but rather a consultation on political views from the perspective of the "young prince" of heaven.
Wei Tianjun said: "The Black Law Master is in charge, but the Black Law Division does not participate."
This was Wei Tianjun's plan from the beginning.
From the perspective of the entire heaven, we cannot take revenge without regard for the consequences.
But Hei Lu Si must not become a soft persimmon that can be bullied by others in the eyes of others.
So, there is a compromise.
This matter needs to be investigated, but it cannot be that the entire Black Law Department is mobilized to investigate, as the Arctic faction is already prominent enough now.
If the Black Law Department investigates this matter again openly, yes, not only will they be in the right, but they will also have evidence to back them up, so there will be absolutely no problem at all.
But here's the problem.
The Emperor of Ziwei lived in seclusion in Ziweiyuan and did not go out, but Heilusi, the most loyal of the North Pole's loyal descendants, made a big fuss about "taking advantage of the situation".
Even though the Black Law Department could not possibly have such an idea, and the Emperor would certainly not authorize such a thing, it is foreseeable that there would be another storm at that time.
The investigation must be carried out, and the results must be clear. Those who should go to the beheading platform should go to the beheading platform, there is nothing to say.
However, it is necessary to make the Black Law Department less prominent while at the same time showing that the Black Law cannot be violated.
The right balance must be struck.
"So, what the Lord of Heaven means is..."
Yang Jian said thoughtfully: "Choose a black law mage to lead the team to investigate this matter. Specific manpower, use..."
"The Palace of Justice."
Wei Tianjun took up the conversation.
Only the Palace of Justice.
There will be no problems only if Yang Jian's old team comes forward at this time.
It was Taibai Star Lord who facilitated Yang Jian’s appointment as the head of the Heavenly Court, and Taibai Star Lord had always been a close attendant of the Great Celestial Lord.
It would be strange if there was no arrangement by the Great Celestial Lord.
"can."
Yang Jian nodded happily, and then asked: "Which mage do you think should be sent to lead?"
Wei Tianjun thought about it and was about to speak, but when he saw Yang Jian's half-smile, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"Your Majesty wants to..."
"Yes."
Yang Jian laughed happily and said, "The young man in your family is about to ascend to immortality. It's a good opportunity to use this matter to accumulate merit for him."
"Besides, there is no one more suitable than him."
"The Emperor personally taught the North Pole Exorcist Academy the fifth-grade Heavenly Scripture, but he has not yet achieved immortality. He was the first to discover this matter."
"It doesn't matter if all three are combined, or if whoever discovered it should investigate, it's all appropriate."
Wei Tianjun nodded and said, "If that's the case, then I would like to thank you for your cultivation on behalf of my useless child."
From the moment this matter was exposed, the Tianren faction that was in charge of this matter was already like a fish on the chopping board.
There's no way to escape.
The only difference is how to cut, and whether to kill with one blow or not.
"Then I will go and make the arrangements."
Wei Tianjun bowed solemnly.
"Go ahead. I will have an imperial decree from the High Heaven Palace to follow you."
Yang Jian nodded and watched Wei Tianjun leave.
"Tsk."
The Third Prince smacked his lips and said, "Second brother, this time the kid named Jiang Lin has taken advantage of you."
"If we really want to argue about this, any Black Law Mage can do, but you only named a child who has not yet achieved immortality."
Upon hearing this, Yang Jian sat in Lao Wei's original position, picked up a chess piece, and dropped it on the chessboard with a "pop".
The Third Prince looked subconsciously, and saw that his dragon was cleanly and neatly cut down by this move.
Before he could act rogue, Yang Jian disrupted the chessboard first, and a sound rang out.
"To be honest, I really admire the boy's style of doing things. The Three Realms are currently lacking such a ruthless master."
"Of course, I also have a little selfish motive."
Yang Jian said with a smile.
The Third Prince raised his eyebrows: "What selfish motives?"
Yang Jian said leisurely: "Jiang Lin... I like this name, it just sounds nice, especially the word Jiang."
…………
"do you understand?"
The human world, Hangzhou, the top of Longjing Mountain.
Jiang Lin stood in front of Wei Tianjun somewhat dumbfounded.
At this time, a day and a night had passed since Jiang Lin summoned the Six Caves Demon to destroy the replica village.
Just now, Wei Tianjun's divine consciousness suddenly appeared and asked Jiang Lin to come to the top of Longjing Mountain to receive orders.
Then he gave Jiang Lin two orders.
One was an edict from the Arctic Exorcism Institute, ordering Jiang Lin to thoroughly investigate the case of the imitation of the Heavenly Demon in order to demonstrate the majesty of the black law.
This is as it should be, but this is also what made Jiang Lin dumbfounded. Why was he the one to do this?
and……
Jiang Lin silently looked at the other decree in his hand.
What does it mean that the Palace of Justice will send people to assist?
