Chapter 264: Burnt by Karma, Pure as Glass
The relationship between Wang Yuan and Zheng Yuchan is almost known to everyone.
However, only very few people know what Zheng Yulin has done.
Wang Yuan wanted to enforce the law and punish those extremely vicious people who killed people for fun, and Zheng Yulin suddenly became the key.
If we cover up, all the fairness, laws, morality, and faith we have established will become questionable. Everything may collapse, people's hearts will no longer be there, and the country will be difficult to manage.
If he were to be punished, his relationship with Zheng Yuchan would come to an end, and he would offend the Red Lotus Saint. The entire Zheng family might also be labeled as ruthless.
But he had to do it.
This is a hole that Wang Yuan dug for himself.
He is a very stubborn person.
He just wants to hold the bottom line.
No matter who it is, as long as it exceeds this bottom line, he will not accept it and will not show mercy.
Heartless?
maybe.
The ultimate goal of cultivation is to return to your true self and live according to your own will.
If you can’t do whatever you want, then what’s the point of practicing?
Wang Yuan did not control or block the news, allowing the news of Zhang Zheng causing trouble in Yujing to spread, allowing more people to know and talk about it.
Then soon, the day of public execution arrived.
Most of the "demons" are in the local area. Their crimes are announced publicly by the Pantheon and executed by people from the court.
A small number of people who were extremely evil or particularly typical were taken to Yujing Square and were personally supervised by Wang Yuan in front of many masters from major sects and long-standing families.
Like Zheng Yulin...
"Emperor Jing!"
The Red Fire Saint Zheng Honglian appeared outside the Northwest Divine Formation and her message reached Yujing.
"I know my brother has committed a great sin and is extremely evil, but I have allowed him to atone for his sins in the southwest for forty years. He has done 18,090 good deeds and saved 765 lives. Isn't this enough to buy him a life and save him from death?"
"If you do bad things and then do good things, you can atone for your sins?
If I slap you and say sorry to you, will everything be fine?
What about those who were killed?
How about I slap you ten thousand times?
If you are wrong, you are wrong. Accept the punishment first and then deal with it.
Otherwise, why?
What qualifications do you have to speak for the victims?
Furthermore, did your brother do those things voluntarily?
It was you who sealed the evil thoughts and true nature in his heart. In the final analysis, those good deeds were done by you, not him..."
Wang Yuandao, his voice spread throughout the world.
"He will die here today!"
"Okay, you can kill him if you want. You are the Emperor Jing, and you have to uphold justice in the world."
Zheng Honglian nodded.
"But first of all, don't you also want to be dignified and upright?
Do you dare to be burned by my Red Lotus Karma Fire? "
In the eyes of normal strong people, the weak are just ants.
The lives of ten thousand ordinary people are not as valuable as the lives of a fifth-grade master with great supernatural powers.
Although it was not the case in Zheng Honglian's eyes, she could not just watch her brother being executed and do nothing.
So she has to take the lead.
Zheng Honglian's voice spread throughout the world, and many people identified with it.
Yes, if you want to uphold justice, first of all you must be upright and incorruptible.
If you are a big devil yourself, why?
Because of Wang Yuan’s current power, no one dared to say it out loud, but they already thought so in their hearts.
"Red Lotus Karma Fire? Okay, I am just thinking of giving it a try."
Wang Yuan smiled fearlessly, and walked to the northwest, outside the formation, to face Zheng Honglian.
The red lotus karmic fire burns all the karma in the world. Every living being has karma, it’s just a matter of how much.
After people reach middle age, their karma begins to gradually manifest itself.
Ordinary people experience this through various diseases and disasters.
As for the strong ones, those at the third level, especially those at the second level and above, will suffer from the five signs of decline in their later years.
The Five Deteriorations of Heaven and Man are extremely terrifying, and can destroy most of the cultivation of a strong man, or even cause him to die directly.
It is the greatest calamity for the strong.
Some things, such as the power of faith, the imperial dragon energy, and merit, can be resisted, but they cannot withstand the red lotus karma fire.
And if one can resist the burning of the red lotus karmic fire, one can eliminate these karmas and prevent the five signs of decay.
Therefore, the Red Fire Red Lotus lineage became an existence that all cultivators both respected and feared.
"~~"
Zheng Honglian looked at Wang Yuan, raised her hand and shot out a red lotus fire, wrapping him up and burning him fiercely.
"Second grade!"
"Zheng Honglian has achieved the second-grade True Saint!" "So fast!"
"As expected of the second most talented person!"
"The faster the Red Lotus Karma Fire is cultivated, the worse this world will be..."
"Can Wang Yuan withstand the second-grade Red Lotus Karma Fire?"
As soon as Zheng Honglian made a move, the strong men discovered the truth.
Zheng Honglian has broken through to the second level and achieved true sainthood.
This was truly a world-shaking event. Zheng Honglian's breakthrough to the second rank was extremely unusual, and it represented something different.
First of all, he controls the Supreme Red Lotus. Once it reaches the second level, he can unleash most of its power and become one of the strongest people in the world.
Secondly, the strength of the Scarlet Fire Sect has reached its peak and has reached the realm of the Four Saints. The two supreme artifacts can be used, which has a huge impact.
Finally, Zheng Honglian is still less than seventy years old.
Apart from Xia Yuwei and Zheng Yuchan who was refining the Dao Fruit, he was definitely the fastest one under Chaos Body Wang Yuan.
If the environment is right, it is expected that one can achieve the first level of enlightenment within a hundred years!
"~~"
Wang Yuan looked calm in the red lotus fire at this moment, without any pain or struggle.
The red lotus fire burned vigorously, but it could not burn away any black air or karma.
Its whole body is clear, just like colored glaze!
"This this……"
Zheng Honglian's pupils shrank slightly, and she couldn't believe it.
She intensified the Red Lotus Fire and even summoned the Supreme Red Lotus, but it still didn't have much effect.
"How is this possible? He is not afraid of the burning of the flames at all?"
"Hasn't he ever done anything bad, or killed a living being?"
"He has killed many people..."
The strength is incredible.
How come some people are immune to the Red Lotus Karma Fire?
Is the Chaos Body so powerful?
"Merit! He has achieved great merit twice!"
"Merit washes away karma!"
There is humanity.
Chaotic body increases merit, no wonder!
Wang Yuan has killed many lives in his life.
But compared to other strong people of the same level, it is much less.
Not even as good as many fifth-rank warriors.
After all, before reaching the third level, Wang Yuan had been hiding all the time and had few opportunities to attack.
And he has grown so fast, it has only been a few decades.
No matter how many he killed, he was not as good as those second-grade True Saints.
And the evil he eliminated saved even more people.
The two merits, especially the last one of saving the world, were enough to wash away all his karma and make his body flawless and pure as glass.
Therefore, Zheng Honglian's Red Lotus Karma Fire had no effect on him at all.
"You...are very good, very good!"
Zheng Honglian removed the red lotus karma fire and turned to leave.
"Execution!"
Wang Yuan returned to Yujing and shouted loudly.
"laugh--"
"Snapped--"
"puff--"
Slashing with a knife, striking with lightning, removing bones, refining souls...
Different punishments are used for different crimes.
Hundreds were publicly executed.
Wang Yuan gave Zheng Yulin a death by having his heart pierced by thousands of arrows...
