Even Hua Yang was stunned at this moment.

It's not that he wasn't prepared for death, he should have been killed because of his revenge.

Hua Yang still remembered that he originally planned to risk his own life to deliver the life-protecting magic weapon to Gu Wen. Faced with the obstruction of many elders within the Shangqing Sect, he said:

'The Tao Lord and Emperor are very powerful and hold the great power, so Gu Wen can abandon him. On the contrary, if Gu Wen has nine or nine Dao foundations, I can also be abandoned.'

Then his master volunteered to help him save his life.

But kindness cannot repay debts, and merit cannot repay hatred.

It's just that Huayang didn't expect that Gu Wen would kill him for such a crime. Such perfunctory behavior was simply undermining the authority of the Taoist sect and destroying the eight hundred years of law.

Hua Yang frowned, moved unsteadily, and looked at Gu Wen, who was ten feet away, with no murderous intent on his plain face.

Is this a joke?

Nonsense!

Hua Yang showed a trace of anger, which made him even more angry than killing him directly.

It would be better for Gu Wen to come directly and kill him, which would at least be a grudge between the two of them and not involve the Taoist sect's laws.

Snap!

Chi Yuzi patted the gavel again and said: "Kneel down, sinner!"

"What is my crime?"

"Because your right foot goes first into the temple."

"There is no such crime in the Taoist law."

Hua Yang held his hands behind his back and straightened his waist, facing the saint in front of him with no fear, and said: "Please find other charges. As long as they comply with the laws of the Taoist sect, then I am willing to plead guilty."

"Gu Wen said yes, then yes!" Chiyuzi snorted coldly and said: "Are you the current Sanqing Tianzun, or is Gu Wen? Kneel down quickly, or I'll slap you."

All the great masters of the Taoist sect who were watching were all ashamed.

So far, most people don't think that Huayang will die. He may be imprisoned by Yuqing Tianzun, but he won't be beheaded anyway.

Huayang Tianzun will always come to power. How can this Red Tianzun offend him so harshly and not even leave a way out for himself?

From now on, I might as well just live with Yuqing Tianzun.

"Please also change the charge."

"Chi Chi Wai Wai Wai Wai, go up to thirty big boards."

Two monks holding wooden poles came forward. They were a little confused and didn't know where to start.

If they were ordinary people and they had already pushed each other to the ground, even if the true master had committed a crime, he would still be beaten. There was a rumor in the Procuratorate that someone was expelled from his master's school because he hit his master with a slap in the face.

Therefore, he was promoted to the main line by Huayang Tianzun and became a true successor. Now he is a high-level official in Zhenwu Palace.

But should Sanqing Tianzun also be beaten?

Gu Wen murmured a few words into Chiyuzi's ear, and the girl's red eyes flashed and she said: "Anyone who does something that shouldn't be done can be whipped forty times."

Huayang's expression suddenly darkened.

Things that are not allowed to be done are things that are not clearly stipulated in the law but should not be done in principle.

This was set by him, and it is mostly used to suppress people who are deliberately making trouble and are familiar with the law. Otherwise, if the law can be continuously used by people, it will also be a kind of destruction.

Soon a bench was placed in front of him. This was undoubtedly a more honorable form of being slapped on the bench. But for Tianzun, simply being summoned would have already resulted in a loss of face, and being slapped in public was unheard of.

There was silence in all directions, and everyone held their breath and concentrated.

Is it possible that a generation of Sanqing Tianzun will be beaten in public?

Suddenly, penetrating through the cave sky, the eighty-one formations of the heavenly prison imprisoned it, and the thirty-two layers of the cave sky isolated it.

The words condensed in the void, and each word appeared in gold.

[The laws of Taoism cannot be exceeded]

Immortal Qing Cang takes action!

Everyone was excited, and Officer Akabane tilted his hat, showing timidity on his face.

"Gu Wen, how about we take off these clothes and tokens and avenge ourselves."

She is not stupid. She can understand what Immortal Qing Cang means. It is okay to take revenge, but she cannot wear this kind of clothes.

Gu Wen raised his hand and struck in the air, and the breeze blew away the characters. Everyone was shocked. They could not see the reason. Both the characters and the breeze were ordinary things to them.

But this is the first time that someone has disobeyed Immortal Qing Cang, and this Jade Qing Tianzun is a bit proud of his favor.

A cold snort came from the void, and the gate of the Procuratorate slammed shut.

Everyone thought that Yuqing Tianzun was going to die. If there was no punishment, then the old longevity star would really be alive.

There were only three people left in the courtyard.

"Go on, make a decision or die."

His gentle voice was like a silver needle falling to the ground, making the whole place silent.

Huayang said: "Tianzun's fate depends on whether he gets hit or not?"

He looked at the Taoist priest in green above him. His charm was the same as that of Master Qingcang, but for some reason he was more aloof and superior.

Everyone knows that Immortal Qing Cang is strict, but they don't know that Qing Cang's strictness is more like that of a mother, just to protect other, weaker children.

The saint in front of him was not harsh, just a bone-chilling indifference.

Like the great sun hanging high in the nine heavens, its radiant power is undetectable.

Rules, laws, and order are of no use to him.

The Taoist priest in Qingyi nodded slightly, Hua Yang stepped forward and stood in front of the bench and lay down on it. Chi Yuzi raised his hand and transformed into a person with two golden lights, picked up the magical weapon Zhanmu, and then dropped it without any delay.

Snap!

The slap on Huayang's butt made a deafening sound like a slap on fine iron.

The second time, the third time, and the fourth time, the stick fell again and again, without showing any mercy. Even though Hua Yang was the Heavenly Lord, he just prostrated on the top of the board and touched the staff.

The most famous deity in the world besides immortals could only grit his teeth and endure.

Thirty strokes of the imperial staff ended with half a blast.

Gu Wen asked: "How do you feel?"

Hua Yang got up from the bench. He was not injured, but his face looked very ugly.

The word "face" is as important as the sky. Huayang is not a very face-conscious person, but that doesn't mean he doesn't care about face at all.

"This is the rule you set. The crime of looking at you has served its purpose. When someone attempts to challenge authority without violating the law, an infinitely broad crime can be used to punish others."

Hua Yang said: "Without this crime, it will be difficult to implement the law. Where there is desire, the law will not exist, and it will be difficult for people to have justice. Or you have a better way. I often hear the master's praise of you."

Gu Wen did not answer, but asked: "Are you concerned about the world?"

Hua Yang couldn't help but nodded: "Only those who are public can be powerful."

"What if it's not for the public good?"

"Then the heart is not calm, the mind is not firm, and there are too many twists and turns in the world to satisfy selfish desires."

"Then why are there still undeserved crimes?"

"There will always be a small number of people who will be sacrificed. The Dao Zong's laws cannot be questioned. Just like you did back then, because the Dao Zong needs a big leader and a Dao Lord and Emperor."

Hua Yang looked directly at Gu Wen and said without any hesitation: "In the past, I confessed all kinds of causes and consequences, and even accepted death or beheading."

"Old guy! I'm so sorry for you!"

The gavel flew out directly, and its golden light could make a mountain collapse. A bright red slowly flowed down from Huayang's forehead.

Chi Yuzi threw the black gauze hat to the ground and cursed: "Don't talk about these vain people, why didn't you send yourself down to be a dog for Emperor Daojun?"

Huayang, still dripping with blood, replied: "If I come down, Emperor Daojun will just be on guard and turn against him. He grasps Daozong's needs that he doesn't want to expose, and then lures them with benefits. Daozong has no choice."

Looking at the Qingyi Taoist on the stage, unlike the angry Chi Tianzun in front of him, his plain face did not have much emotion.

He felt angry because he was sacrificed, and he didn't feel resentful because the Gu family was wiped out.

"Maybe we have had a choice, but we will not offend Emperor Daojun for your sake."

"Then if we kill you today, don't blame us."

Akabane's eyes were cold. She was always straightforward and never cared about any exchange of interests, only whether it was right or wrong.

Hua Yang nodded, but before he could say anything, a golden light enveloped him, and the entire hall was filled with only bright golden light.

Boom!

A punch blasted out with tremendous force, moving the thirty-two levels of the Heavenly Lao.

Chi Yuzi hit Huayang's chest with all his strength, hitting his heart and lungs, breaking his ribs, and shattering his liver and intestines.

The aftermath of the fist wind fell on the door, and an invisible force eliminated it.
