The granny didn't expect to meet a god that had descended to the mortal world. No matter how Zhu Minglang supported her, she had to finish her kowtow. Otherwise, she wouldn't have dared to speak like she did before.
Zhu Minglang was helpless. He waited for the granny to finish her series of kowtows before listening to her slowly explain.
The granny had actually described their situation to him previously.
The Crane Frost Sect was actually from the Bai Sang Kingdom. After the kingdom was destroyed, they either died or fled. It wasn't until Sect Master Nie Xiaoxuan gathered them together and changed their identities to become members of the Crane Frost Sect.
The purpose of their establishment wasn't to raise Spirit Silkworms, but to take revenge on Great Sky Peak.
"You must have seen those blooming red mulberry trees on your way here. The thicker and taller ones are the fertilizer that we used to fertilize the scum of Great Sky Peak. Over the years, we have used all kinds of methods, such as assassination, poisoning, deceit, ambushing, and hiring … In total, we have killed more than a hundred and thirty people from Great Sky Peak and buried them in the mountains of Red Mulberry Mountain." The old granny didn't dare to hide anything and told the truth.
Revenge!
The entire sect was hidden in the mountains not far from Great Sky Peak. They even lived as followers of a god, all for the sake of taking revenge on the people who destroyed their kingdom!
"I've dealt with your sect master before. She's a very cautious person. Since she hid well before, how did the people of Great Sky Peak find out?" Zhu Minglang asked.
"In the manor, there's a Mad Demon. He's a Quasi God. Because he failed to advance to the Divine Ascension Stage, he went berserk and completely lost his mind. His adopted son, Chang Hui, used some kind of divine ability. As long as Chang Hui was in danger, he could summon the Mad Demon from somewhere else to his side. Although the Mad Demon went berserk, he obeyed his adopted son's every word. He would risk his life to protect him … We've always sent people to test the Mad Demon, trying to find a way to kill him, but most of them never returned. "The granny continued.
"So it's not a coincidence that your sect master's junior sister, Nie Qin, died at the hands of the Mad Demon?" Zhu Minglang asked.
"She also wanted to kill Mad Demon, but she was discovered and was almost humiliated. However, that Mad Demon is truly insane. Not only has he harmed the people of our Crane Frost Sect, but he has also harmed the surrounding cities and sects. Everyone hates him to the bone, "the old granny continued.
Zhu Minglang nodded. Zhu Minglang had investigated the matter of the Mad Demon himself. There wasn't anything wrong with what the old granny had said. It was just that the female sect master had concealed some details when she described the matter.
"Now that Mad Demon is dead, you have a chance to kill Chang Tianzi of Great Sky Peak. That's why you mobilized the entire sect to kill him. Hongtian Peak was enraged and came here to exterminate the sect. But in the end, they ended up like this? "Zhu Minglang asked.
What happened next could be guessed.
Hongtian Peak was the most powerful of the Eight Great Sky Peaks. As a God's Chosen One and the successor to the position of Peak Master, their status was equivalent to that of a prince of a country. Yet, they were killed by a small sect. This kind of thing was definitely unacceptable for a God's organization!
"Yes, we only have ourselves to blame for our deaths. We were all prepared for this. It's just that we've implicated the surrounding towns. Those towns are nothing more than mulberry farmers and silkworm merchants who do some silk business," the old granny lamented.
Zhu Minglang frowned.
Every grievance has its perpetrator and every debt has its debtor. The Crane Frost Sect had taken revenge, and Hongtian Peak had come to exterminate the sect. This could be considered a grudge in the Jianghu. But if the surrounding towns were also massacred, the people of Hongtian Peak were simply too lawless!
However, based on what they had done in the Extreme Court, this was indeed the case.
"Granny, bury them properly. If there is a fair result in three days, pour a few cups of wine on their graves and inform them. That way, they will be able to walk on the road to the Underworld more magnanimously," Zhu Minglang said to her.
The old granny looked at Zhu Minglang.
A fair result … How many people in the world could ask for justice from the gods, let alone a god who had always been domineering and arrogant?
In the old granny's opinion, justice was the most ridiculous thing in the world. They had never thought there was any justice in the world since their destruction. The gods were so high and mighty, while the mortals were like ants. The only reason they were able to survive in this land was because of the mercy and mercy of the gods. How could they expect justice?
However, for some reason, when the old granny looked at Zhu Minglang's back, she had a feeling that something like this really existed. Perhaps there would be a fair result!
…
Zhu Minglang leaped over the mulberry mountains on his flying sword.
Since the Crane Frost Sect was too good at silkworm arts, the nearby towns had become rich because of them.
Zhu Minglang had already noticed this when he was investigating. Putting aside whether the Crane Frost Sect had any ulterior motives, the nearby towns all had a high opinion of them. They also respected the Sect Master who had made them rich.
Of course, these towns did not belong to the Crane Frost Sect. They were the people of the Heavenly Peak, even though most of them were mortals …
Zhu Minglang rode the wind on his flying sword and flew under the clouds. In terms of short-distance flying, the Stegosaurus was still more convenient. Zhu Minglang arrived at the White Cassia Town. He stood on his flying sword in the air and looked down at the little town that had been trampled over.
Corpses could be seen everywhere on the streets.
Some people were walking back and forth in the town with sabers in their hands.
Some people in reddish-brown clothes were dragged out of some houses and courtyards, and after a few casual questions, they were directly shackled. And as long as there was even the slightest bit of resistance, the outcome would be those corpses at the end of the street …
"How lawless!"
Zhu Minglang's heart was already filled with anger.
White Cassia Town belonged to the Great Sky Peak. At most, they had dealings with the Crane Frost Sect's silkworm business. However, the entire town's silkworm farmers, merchants, cloth merchants, and weavers were all swept up. They were captured and killed. The little town was like mud after rain, covered in blood!
This made Zhu Minglang think of the capital cities of the small countries in Extreme Court. They had been massacred by people like the Great Sky Peak and Hei Tianfeng who cultivated "slaughter". He originally thought that they were just a few scum of the Heavenly Peak, but now it seemed that the Heavenly Peak had been so tyrannical for a long time.
"Weng weng weng ~ ~ ~ ~"
Suddenly, he heard the sound of wings flapping. Zhu Minglang looked over and saw a thunder snake with transparent wings. Its body was also translucent. If it flew in the clouds, it would be impossible to detect its existence.
"Thunder Punishment Spirit Envoy?" Mister Koi recognized the creature with transparent wings and said in surprise.
"What's that?" Zhu Minglang asked.
"You can think of it as an envoy of heavenly punishment. It lives by punishing those who break their oaths, spurn the gods, and curse the heavens. For example, some people swear to the heavens that if they betray them, they will be struck by lightning. At that time, they have already formed a contract with it. If it really happens, the Thunder Punishment Spirit Envoy will appear and punish those who betray them. These are usually the pets of the temples and gods. Many of them wander around the world," Mister Koi said.
Zhu Minglang immediately understood.
This fellow was the Flying Thunder and Lightning in the Crane Frost Sect. That old granny had cursed the heavens and insulted the gods in the territory of the ostentatious gods, which led to the heavens' punishment. He thought the heavens really had the time to listen to everyone's words and actions. It turned out that it was this little thing that was causing trouble.
"You represent the heavens' punishment, yet you didn't kill those who willfully killed the innocent. Instead, you wanted to kill an angry old granny. You bully the weak and fear the strong. You're helping the tyrant. It's useless to keep you alive in this world. Why don't I kill you too?" Zhu Minglang sneered and mocked the Thunder Punishment Spirit Envoy.
Only by becoming a Principal God could Zhu Minglang see the true face of the Thunder Punishment Spirit. Similarly, Zhu Minglang's words had a certain deterrent effect on the Thunder Punishment Spirit Envoy.
The Thunder Punishment Spirit Envoy was pacing back and forth in the vicinity. It was a little afraid of Zhu Minglang, but for some reason, it couldn't leave. When it heard Zhu Minglang say that he wanted to kill it, it was so scared that it scurried around.
However, no matter how it scurried, the Thunder Punishment Spirit Envoy didn't dare to go too far. It was always in Zhu Minglang's line of sight.
"You are the Fu Chen God, the Investigating God. Perhaps this Heavens' Spirit Envoy will temporarily listen to you, the Imperial Envoy. You can try to make it roll over here." Mister Koi said.
"You, come over here." Zhu Minglang ordered.
Sure enough, the Thunder Punishment Spirit Envoy slowly flew over. It was trembling, as if it was extremely afraid of Zhu Minglang.
Finally, the Thunder Punishment Spirit Envoy arrived in front of Zhu Minglang. Its body wasn't big. It was about the same size as an ordinary little water snake. It had a pair of transparent wings. From time to time, a miniature version of lightning would flash back and forth on its translucent body.
Zhu Minglang never knew such a thing existed.
"I don't think I need to tell you who deserves to be struck by the Heavenly Punishment Lightning. Judging from your performance, if you continue to fool the people, I'll chop you into pieces and make you into a stew!" Zhu Minglang threatened the Thunder Punishment Spirit Envoy.
The Thunder Punishment Spirit Envoy's perception wasn't bad. It naturally knew that the people of the city were being tortured and destroyed.
It flew into the sky and swayed its body. Suddenly, the sky was covered in thick clouds. Even though the air wasn't humid at all, the sound of thunder could be heard.
"BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!"
Thunder rumbled, and very soon, a bolt of heavenly tribulation descended from the sky and struck one of the executioners!
The Saber Executioner from Great Heaven Peak had just raised his saber and was about to chop off the head of a Mulberry Farmer when lightning surged into his saber and turned him into charcoal!
"BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!"
More Heavenly Punishment Lightning descended and accurately struck the Great Sky Peak executioners one after another. The Heavenly Lightning was extremely dense, like a dazzling rain of lightning. No matter where the Great Sky Peak executioners were hiding, they were struck to death by the lightning!
