Chapter 1376: The Truth?
The grudge between the Demon Lord and the Heavenly Dao is well known throughout the Three Realms.
When the two sides fought with the heavens falling and the earth shattering, no one expected that during the Divine Enthronement Ceremony for the new Little Heavenly Dao, she would invite the Demon Lord to come.
Bai Zhi’er nodded, seated at the main seat, already exuding a certain aura.
With a tone that brooked no disagreement, she said, "The past grievances should be resolved here with me."
"Besides, I always believed there were doubts about the origins of the various conflicts back then."
"After the Divine Enthronement Ceremony, I will thoroughly investigate this matter and surely reveal the truth to the public."
Upon saying this, Bai Zhi’er noticed from the corner of her eye that Lord Ju Chixing lowered his head even further.
A trace of cold laughter flickered in the depths of the girl’s crystalline eyes.
It seems he knows he has a guilty conscience.
The hour was still early, and since Feng Fuce had not yet arrived, Bai Zhi’er decided not to begin the Divine Enthronement Ceremony.
She stood up, "Everyone, please enjoy yourselves first. When the Demon Lord arrives, we will start the God Sealing Conference."
After saying this, Bai Zhi’er left the main hall, planning to return to the immortal palace to say a few words to her mother.
But before that, she intended to make a trip to the Thunder Punishment Hall.
Since Bai Zhi’er returned to the nine layered heaven, passing through the South Heavenly Gate, she sensed extremely strong talismans emitting a subtle glow.
The Heavenly Soldiers had said that the talismans were used to ensure safety, in case there were people with malicious intentions.
If so, the function of this Thunder Formation should primarily be protective, rather than emitting such strong attacking energy.
Bai Zhi’er suspected there was a problem.
Of course, to investigate the setup of the Thunder Array, she needed to go to the Thunder Punishment Hall.
She hadn’t reached it when she happened to meet a familiar face halfway.
"Lu Wang?" Bai Zhi’er blinked, looking behind him, but didn’t see Feng Fuce’s figure.
"Why did you come alone, where is Brother Fuce?"
Lu Wang paused, confused, "Wasn’t Lord Demon already here a long time ago?"
"I set off directly from the Xiuluo Guard, just went to see A ruo, not with Lord Demon."
Bai Zhi’er felt even more strange.
She thought for a moment, "Lu Wang, don’t rush to the Yaochi Palace yet, stay together with Sister A Ruo in the immortal palace."
"I’ll go do something and then come find you, we’ll go to the Yaochi Palace together."
Lu Wang didn’t know why but nodded, "Alright."
He was certainly happy to be with A Ruo.
Bai Zhi’er watched Lu Wang turn and leave, concern rippling in her watery eyes.
What happened to Brother Fuce?
Today is her important day, with his personality, he would never be missing and late.
Bai Zhi’er quickened her pace, heading towards the Thunder Punishment Hall.
Surprisingly, the Thunder Punishment Hall, which should have been heavily guarded by Heavenly Soldiers, was completely empty today, both inside and outside!
Bai Zhi’er was quite shocked.
The Thunder Punishment Hall manages all the rights and wrongs of the Three Realms, including the duty of capturing demons and eliminating demons.
If someone with a mind to do evil were to sneak in and manipulate the Thunder Punishment, wouldn’t that spell trouble?
Bai Zhi’er hurried to enter and inspect, but as she approached the door, she heard familiar voices coming from inside.
She instantly hid her presence.
Bai Zhi’er walked outside the door, listening to the conversation inside.
"These are all caught by you?"
This voice made Bai Zhi’er tremble all over.
Why is it Mother?!
She couldn’t believe it, even peeked inside for a look.
That familiar figure could be none other than Jing Jia herself!
Standing opposite her was Star Lord Yuan Qing!
Bai Zhi’er suddenly widened her beautiful eyes.
At the feet of Star Lord Yuan Qing lay five dying little demons.
It’s Qiu Da and them!
