Chapter 1210: Chapter 1210: Thorough Investigation of Heavenly Thunder
"Moreover, the Empress possesses an immortal bone, ordinary Heavenly Thunder cannot harm you at all!"
After he finished speaking, Bai Zhi’er also fell into deep thought.
She found it somewhat strange.
Never heard of Heavenly Thunder striking the wrong person by mistake.
Bai Zhi’er turned her eyes, contemplating: "Take me to see the Thunder Hall where the execution is happening."
The Main God quickly led the way.
"Your Highness, you can rest assured, our Thunder Hall is guarded daily by dedicated personnel. The pre-set Heavenly Tribulation will not experience any mishaps."
"Before the Heavenly Tribulation initiates, there will even be a demonstration inside the Thunder Hall."
However, when the Main God and Bai Zhi’er entered the Thunder Hall, they found that the four Thunder Children guarding the place were missing.
The Main God was stunned and shouted at the guard officer at the door: "Where did the four Thunder Children go?!"
The guard officer hurried inside: "Main God, they went out one after another earlier. They’ve been feeling unwell these days and have to repeatedly take elixirs to feel better."
The Main God was taken aback: "How did this happen, why wasn’t it reported?"
The guard officer bowed his head, speaking nervously: "They said it’s not a big issue. The Thunder Punishment was pre-set, so even if they’re not here for a moment, it won’t matter, so..."
Bai Zhi’er sneered: "Ridiculous! If a mistake occurs and the Heavenly Tribulation strikes an innocent person, what will happen then?"
She said this, turning and walking deeper into the Thunder Hall, where thunder roared, and Thunder Punishment was underway.
Bai Zhi’er walked to the Jade platform and performed a ritual to summon the booklet.
The Heavenly Book would record the recent executions of Heavenly Thunder.
Bai Zhi’er quickly found the day concerning Xiao Li.
She took a glance and immediately noticed the issue.
"A snake demon transforming into a dragon, the number of Heavenly Thunder should be only three thousand six hundred strikes, why does it say here that five thousand were executed?"
"One Heavenly Thunder, hitting it more than two thousand times extra?!"
The Main God incredulously confirmed it again and knelt on the ground: "Empress, forgive me! I have no idea how this could happen, there was no error in the previous setting..."
Bai Zhi’er flicked her sleeves: "Immediately conduct a thorough investigation, bring out the Heavenly Mirror, and see who entered here that day."
"Yes, yes!"
"And, do not let anyone else know about this matter. Other than me, do not discuss it with anyone, remember?"
"The little god understands..."
Bai Zhi’er left the Thunder Hall.
The Main God was so frightened that he wiped a handful of cold sweat from his forehead.
Just as the Empress became angry, it felt like the entire Heavenly Court shook slightly.
It seemed the Empress herself wasn’t aware that the light of her Primordial Spirit was as bright as daylight!
This is a sign of Divine Technique reaching great achievement.
The Main God of Thunder Punishment Department decided to investigate quickly, lest he be demoted to the mortal realm by the Empress.
Bai Zhi’er returned to the immortal palace, to visit her mother.
As she reached the door, she heard voices conversing inside—
"Thank you, Star Lord Yuan Qing for your understanding, only you come here every day to visit Your Majesty." A ruo’s voice.
Bai Zhi’er’s steps paused.
Star Lord Yuan Qing?
She glanced inside, Star Lord Yuan Qing was walking out with A ruo.
"Miss A ruo, there’s no need for courtesy. The whole nine layered heaven is concerned about Your Majesty’s health. I, of course, hope Your Majesty wakes soon."
With that, they looked up and saw Bai Zhi’er.
A ruo joyfully exclaimed, "Empress, you’re back!"
Star Lord Yuan Qing’s expression remained unchanged, quickly bowing and lowering his head.
Bai Zhi’er walked over, smiling and speaking to A ruo: "I came to spend some time seeing my mother. I have reached the coming of age recently and wanted to talk to her."
After saying that, she looked at Star Lord Yuan Qing with a faint smile: "Why did the Star Lord come?"
