Chapter 7: Confrontation
In the Tianlao Palace, the only person who dared to speak to Yang Jian like this was undoubtedly Qiu Yin, the God of Guansuo!
Before the others arrived, just one sentence had already caused a tense atmosphere at the entrance of the prison.
"General!" Wang Zhen's eyes lit up and he ran towards the gate of the prison as if running for his life.
Qiu Yin was the commander-in-chief of Qinglong Pass and the mighty general during his lifetime.
The heavenly soldiers who followed Wang Zhen to heaven after his death liked to call him the Great General.
Li Anran also hurriedly followed.
He didn't want to face Yang Jian alone.
Not far into the prison, they saw a tall and mighty middle-aged man in a silver helmet and white armor, leading two heavenly generals and more than a dozen heavenly soldiers striding towards them in the interweaving of light and darkness.
Is this Qiu Yin, the God of Guansuo?
Li Anran couldn't help but take a few more glances.
The heavenly soldiers and generals have a very low status in heaven and are not allowed to move around freely except where they are on duty.
But gods, especially righteous gods like Qiu Yin, are different!
As long as they do not come down to the earth without permission, they are not restricted in their daily lives, whether they are visiting friends or discussing philosophy.
Therefore, Li Anran has been in the Heavenly Prison for almost a month, but has never met his biggest boss. Even before just now, he didn't know that Qiu Yin was in the Heavenly Prison.
"General, I..."
Wang Zhen's face was filled with shame, and he was about to kneel down and apologize, but Qiu Yin pulled him up.
"Don't blame yourself, you've done good enough."
Qiu Yin patted Wang Zhen on the shoulder and walked out without stopping.
Wang Zhen's body trembled, his eyes reddened, and he stared blankly at Qiu Yin's back.
After five or six seconds, he finally calmed down, quickly caught up with the team, and joined the heavenly soldiers.
"Qiu Yin's words have made Wang Zhen willing to die for him now!"
Li Anran sighed inwardly and followed him.
"God of Justice, what a powerful authority!"
In front of Yang Jian, Qiu Yin was not polite at all and said sarcastically: "If you don't know, you would think this is your Justice Temple!"
"Qiu Yin, what do you mean by this?"
Before Yang Jian could speak, the Meishan brothers could not help but scold him: "My Second Master is the God of Justice appointed by the Jade Emperor himself. He follows the Jade Emperor's orders to rectify the heavenly rules, enforce the law, and educate the immortals! The heavenly soldiers in your prison are lax and neglect their duties, and my Second Master can't do anything about it?!"
Roaring Sky Dog also started barking wildly.
Qiu Yin put on an expression of sudden enlightenment: "Oh, it turns out that I was wrong. You guys mistook this for the Temple of Justice."
When the Meishan brothers heard this, their expressions eased a little.
But at this moment, Qiu Yin continued to say, "Do you think this is Guanjiangkou?"
Meishan Brothers: “???!!!”
The Meishan brothers almost couldn't catch their breath. When they came to their senses, they were furious: "Qiu Yin, if you dare to talk nonsense again, don't blame us for being rude!"
Boss Kang and Boss Li only made verbal threats.
Yao Laosan and Guo Laowu have already picked up their weapons and are ready to take action.
"That's enough." Yang Jian raised his hand and shouted.
It was just two short words, and the voice was not loud, but to the Meishan brothers, it was more effective than the Jade Emperor's decree.
No matter who wanted to curse or attack, they all retreated behind Yang Jian without saying a word and just glared at Qiu Yin fiercely, their chests heaving violently.
What a pity!
Qiu Yin felt a little regretful, but he didn't dwell on it anymore.
Judging from the attitude of the Meishan brothers towards Yang Jian, since Yang Jian had spoken, no matter how angry they were, they would not take action on their own.
"Didn't the God of Justice just ask where the others were?"
Qiu Yin pointed at the heavenly soldiers following behind him and said, "They are all here. I just called them in to question them and ask if there are any abnormalities in the prison during this period. It should not violate the heavenly rules, and they are not considered to have left their posts without permission, right?"
Yang Jian said calmly: "Not really."
"That's good."
Qiu Yin said, "I have a question for the God of Justice. According to the rules of heaven, the prison is a restricted area and outsiders are forbidden to approach. Are the retainers and private soldiers of the God of Justice considered outsiders?"
The Meishan brothers' faces turned pale in an instant, and they stared at Qiu Yin, wishing they could eat him alive.
Yang Jian's eyes flashed with anger, and he said in a cold voice: "Brother Meishan has fought for the Heavenly Court and conquered demons and monsters, and has made great contributions. Guansuo Xingjun's words are a bit too much!"
Qiu Yin sneered: "It is precisely because I consider that they are also working for the Heavenly Court that I did not pursue the matter of them trespassing into the Heavenly Prison Palace! But if they don't know what is good for them and dare to take another step forward, don't blame me for reporting to the Jade Emperor and accusing them of trespassing into the Heavenly Prison!"
Yang Jian did not say anything else. He looked coldly at Qiu Yin in front of him. His eyes were as sharp as knives and as cold as ice, which made people shudder.
Qiu Yin, however, was not afraid at all. He met Yang Jian's gaze and looked back at him, with even a hint of sneer on the corner of his mouth.
The air seemed to freeze at this moment, and the atmosphere was depressing to the extreme.
There were thousands of people in front of the prison gate, but not even a single sound could be heard; it was completely silent.
"Qiu Yin is deliberately looking for trouble! I'm really screwed! If I had known I would have hidden in the prison today and not come out! "
Li Anran was extremely anxious and annoyed.
Wang Zhen and other heavenly soldiers and generals are all listed in the List of Gods. Even if they die, they will not be truly dead. But he is different!
He has just obtained the golden finger, and his road to rise has not even begun. If he dies here, it would be unjust!
But at this time, he had no choice but to wait passively.
Time goes very slowly at this time.
Every minute and every second seems to be infinitely stretched.
I don’t know how much time passed.
Yang Jian finally spoke and chose to give in.
"In that case, please trouble the Star Lord to send someone to take these evildoers to the Heavenly Prison."
Qiu Yin also stopped when he saw that things were going well: "It's not a big deal. This is my duty."
The tense atmosphere eased instantly.
Li Anran breathed a sigh of relief immediately, only to realize that his palms were wet.
The heavenly soldiers and generals before him were not much better!
Many legs were shaking.
Apparently he had been too tense just now, and now that he relaxed, his muscles were somewhat out of control.
On the opposite side, the Meishan brothers and the grass-headed gods behind them all looked indignant.
It took them nearly four years to capture these monsters, from collecting intelligence to secretly weakening the opponent's strength and finally sending troops to encircle and suppress them. After finally winning a great victory, they were humiliated in the Heavenly Prison.
Now, they have to hand over the monsters they captured to those who humiliated them.
One can imagine the anger in their hearts.
However, no one questioned it, and no one even showed the slightest intention of secretly resisting cooperation. They took the initiative to send all the demons to the front of the formation.
"Wang Yi, Wei Zhi, go call some more people and put these monsters in jail." Qiu Yin ordered.
"Yes." The two heavenly generals took the order and returned to the heavenly prison.
After a while, he walked out with dozens of heavenly soldiers.
These heavenly soldiers who came later did not know what had happened before, but they could also feel the suppressed anger in the hearts of the Meishan brothers and the grass-headed gods.
They didn't dare to breathe, and took the monster from the grass-headed god with a stern face and expressionless face.
Li Anran is also one of them.
He was in charge of a black fox demon whose body was covered with tooth marks and claw marks.
These should all be masterpieces left by Roaring Sky Dog.
"ah!"
A scream suddenly sounded, attracting everyone's attention.
Li Anran is no exception.
Following the sound, I saw a heavenly soldier collapsed on the ground, trembling all over, with a look of fear on his face.
Next to him was a six-foot-tall monkey demon with a round head, hairy face, no cheeks, flat ears, a broken nose, and a body covered with golden hair.
Different from other captured monsters, this monkey monster had at least a dozen ropes wrapped around its body, making it look like a ball of iron wire.
Everyone didn’t realize what was happening at first, but soon, they saw clearly what was happening.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Another heavenly soldier stepped forward and was about to help up his colleague who had collapsed on the ground.
The monkey demon glanced over.
thump!
The soldier seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying. His legs went limp and he collapsed to the ground, emitting a series of meaningless screams.
