Heavenly Punishment

He couldn't help but recall his own actions back then.

"In the past, I was also this arrogant, only to be imprisoned here. What does this Su Yang rely on to dare disregard the Heavenly Dao like this?"

Sect Master Tongtian pondered inwardly, "No matter what methods he uses, his courage alone is rare in this world."

At this moment, a low shout suddenly came from outside the chaos.

"Disciple Yuanshi, seeking an audience with Master."

As soon as the voice fell, the great doors of Zixiao Palace slowly opened. Sect Master Tongtian turned his head to look, and the one arriving was none other than Primordial Lord of Heaven.

Sect Master Tongtian frowned and said coldly, "Why have you come here, and to what end?"

"Why are you being so distant, Third Brother?"

Primordial Lord of Heaven said with a smile, "What happened back then was because you defied the heavens, Third Brother. I, your elder brother, was merely acting in accordance with them."

"Heh."

Sect Master Tongtian chuckled and didn't argue further.

Because he had to admit that what Primordial had said was indeed the truth.

At that time, he had indeed violated the Heavenly Dao, otherwise, he wouldn't be trapped in this Zixiao Palace now.

Primordial Lord of Heaven took a deep breath, then bowed respectfully to Hongjun, who was seated above.

"Disciple Yuanshi, greets Master."

"Why have you come here instead of diligently cultivating the Dao?" Hongjun looked at Primordial Lord of Heaven, his expression indifferent, devoid of any emotional fluctuation.

At this moment, he had already merged with the Heavenly Dao.

After countless years, Hongjun and the Heavenly Dao were indistinguishable.

Hongjun was the Heavenly Dao, but the Heavenly Dao was not equivalent to Hongjun.

Now, he was the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao, naturally as cold and ruthless as the Heavenly Dao.

Hearing this, Primordial Lord of Heaven immediately replied, "Junior Sister Nuwa has violated Master's rules by entering the Primordial World without permission and heading to the Earthly Immortal Realm."

"I fear Master may not know of this matter, so I have come to report it."

As this statement fell, before Hongjun could even speak, Sect Master Tongtian let out a cold laugh and said:

"I thought you came here with some profound argument, but it turns out you've come to tattle to the Master."

"Did you not cause enough suffering to your own brothers during the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation? And now you intend to scheme against Junior Sister Nuwa?"

After he finished speaking, Primordial Lord of Heaven's face instantly darkened, and he glared at Sect Master Tongtian like a knife, coldly shouting, "Master has not yet spoken, how dare you speak first?"

"Retire."

Hongjun slowly closed his eyes and said calmly, "As long as Nuwa does not interfere in the affairs of the Earthly Immortal Realm, let her be."

Upon hearing this, shock and disbelief appeared on Primordial Lord of Heaven's face, and he stared blankly at Hongjun.

Hongjun, however, said nothing more, his eyes tightly shut, not looking at Yuanshi again.

Primordial Lord of Heaven understood in his heart that all his schemes were ultimately in vain.

"Alas."

With a long sigh, he glared fiercely at Sect Master Tongtian, then turned and left Zixiao Palace, disappearing into the chaos.

After Yuanshi left, the great doors of Zixiao Palace slowly closed once more.

Sect Master Tongtian gazed in the direction of Qingshan City in the Earthly Immortal Realm, his expression lost in thought. He extended his divine power, observing the situation there.

"What exactly does this kid rely on to dare ignore the Heavenly Punishment?"

In the inn, the City God's face was filled with shock and unease after hearing Su Yang's narration.

He had initially thought Su Yang was merely a gifted storyteller, bringing his tales to life.

But he never imagined Su Yang would be so audacious as to speak of the Heavenly Dao's prohibition without any reservation!

Now, he was ignoring the lightning punishment sent down by the Heavenly Dao and continuing his story, as if the thunder was merely the whistling wind.

This was a naked provocation of the Heavenly Dao!

The City God was extremely terrified. If the Heavenly Dao were to rage and the lightning intensify, how would this end?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look up at the sky.

Suddenly, the City God's pupils constricted. Just as he had expected, the power of the lightning had indeed grown stronger!

Seeing this, the City God was even more shocked.

Also in the inn, everyone noticed the increasingly terrifying thunder outside the window.

However, Su Yang's expression remained calm, and he continued to tell his story as if nothing had happened.

CRACK!

RUMBLE!!

With a loud bang and a burst of thunder, Su Yang finally looked up slightly, gazing at the sky.

Everyone saw this and spoke one after another, "Mr. Su, you've finally noticed this lightning."

"Yes, Mr. Su, let's stop here for today. We don't necessarily need to know those things."

But Su Yang just chuckled lightly, his expression calm, as if the lightning was just ordinary weather, having nothing to do with him.

Everyone looked at him, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.

If an ordinary person were to witness such terrifying heavenly lightning punishment with their own eyes, and they themselves were the target of the punishment, they would likely have been scared out of their wits.

But Su Yang remained composed, showing no fear.

Naturally, others could not understand where he got such confidence from.

Even less could they know that this inn was a true sanctuary for Su Yang.

Even if a Sage were to personally arrive, they could not inflict the slightest harm upon him, let alone this heavenly lightning punishment.

BOOM!

A bolt of thunder tore through the sky, heading straight for the inn.

Seeing this, everyone in the inn immediately panicked, their eyes filled with terror and disbelief. They were still inside the inn!

Could it be that the Heavenly Dao intended to obliterate them all?

"Disperse!"

A low shout rang out, and the sound waves swept out like a raging tide, actually shattering the lightning and even dispersing the thunderclouds!

Su Yang's expression remained unchanged, his gaze swept over the crowd, and he continued to recount the legends of the Shrouding the Heavens World.

However, after the scene they had just witnessed, who could still calm down and listen to a story?

What just happened?

Su Yang, with just a shout, had broken the lightning punishment and even dispersed the thunderclouds!

How was this possible?

"Isn't Mr. Su an ordinary person?"

"Hiss... With just one word, he broke the heavenly lightning! What level has Mr. Su's strength reached?"

"Could he be an immortal or god descended to the mortal world?"

Everyone looked at Su Yang with uncertainty and doubt. Meanwhile, within his System, points were rapidly increasing.

This caused Su Yang's lips to curl into a slight smile.

Fear and shock were also emotions. And these emotions eventually turned into points, falling under his control.

"It seems I'll have to tell more thrilling stories in the future."

He thought to himself. With the inn protecting him, he was invincible here.

Even if his words offended the Heavenly Dao, there was no risk.

Everyone looked at Su Yang, their expressions becoming more and more reverent.

What kind of existence was this? To be able to shatter the Heavenly Dao's lightning punishment with just a single sentence?

Could he truly be a certain immortal or god, hidden in the mortal world?

"The Heart of the Demon Emperor appeared, instantly shattering the Ji Family's four Archaic War Chariots and flying away."

"And by a stroke of chance, this Heart of the Demon Emperor fell into Ye Fan's hands."

Su Yang's voice rang out again, drawing everyone into that magnificent and epic world.

The lightning punishment from before had already dissipated, and the crowd gradually calmed their minds, immersing themselves once more.

What secrets did the Demon Emperor's tomb hold?

Since the Demon Emperor had already perished, why could the Heart of the Demon Emperor leave on its own?

In an instant, the inn returned to its quiet state, as if the thunder from before had never appeared.
