My version of Heavenly Dao is too old, so it's full of bugs.

Chapter 578 Yang Jian Emerges from Seclusion
It's too early for Li Wei to make a choice.

After all, He has only just come into contact with a few suitable paths, and there are still many issues that He hasn't figured out. It's impossible for Him to make a choice so quickly.

So for the next period of time, Li Wei began to use the power of the Great Thief's Secrets and the power of the Cleansing Life Orthodox Church pantheon to learn about several paths and explore them little by little.

Time passed slowly, and seven days later...

Boom!
The gates of the residence of the True Lord of the Mysterious Path of Qingyuan finally opened, and Yang Jian, who had been in seclusion, slowly walked out, seemingly having composed himself.

Although Yang Chan didn't get along with her second brother, he was still her own brother, so she rushed over to comfort him as soon as possible.

Are you okay?

Yang Jian smiled slightly, looking somewhat tired, and said, "My cultivation has declined somewhat, but it's not a big problem..."

Among the three calamities and nine tribulations, one of them is obstruction from teachers and elders. Yang Jian only has one teacher, and that is the Jade Cauldron Immortal!

Although the Jade Cauldron was not invaded by the calamity due to the protection of the Jade Void Palace, and did not become one of Yang Jian's calamities like Yang Chan, it still triggered the backlash of the calamity this time, causing Yang Jian's cultivation to decline.

However, just as Yang Jian said, these cultivation levels can be recovered quickly, so the impact is indeed not significant.

Li Wei, who arrived a little later, also breathed a sigh of relief: "Second Brother, you're my only reliable support right now, you absolutely can't get hurt!"

Enough! You probably just want me dead so you can divide up my fortune!

[Second Brother, how could you think of me like that? My loyalty to you is as clear as day!]

[Heh, I don't believe you for a second.]

Yang Jian chatted with Li Wei for a while, then looked at the newspapers from the past few days. Finally, after observing the latest situation in the Three Realms with his Dharma Eye, he suddenly said:

[It's been a few days, and the situation in the Three Realms is getting more and more interesting. I can't waste any more time here...]

Yang Jian laughed heartily and grabbed Li Wei's shoulder:

I heard you were very good at solving cases when you were in the Thunder Department. I happen to have a case that I haven't been able to solve yet. Would you be willing to help me?

Yang Jian was remembering his duty.

When Venus gave the order, Li Wei went to persuade Yang Jian to take over the position of the Great God of Law Enforcement of the Three Armies, and he is still in charge of the military discipline of the Heavenly Court.

Therefore, theoretically speaking, in the era of the military control version of Heavenly Dao 7.20, Yang Jian was the first god who held the power of law enforcement and supervision within the Heavenly Court!
However, He had only just taken office and hadn't even investigated the case yet when He encountered a series of events, including the Heavenly Court's surprise attack on the Dragon Clan, the Ancestral Dragon's dethronement, Li Wei's ascension, and a visit to the Jade Void Palace.

Even the leader who recruited Him during this time perished!

Therefore, Yang Jian had suspects, but didn't even have time to investigate the case, which has dragged on until now.

Li Wei's heart skipped a beat, and he said meaningfully, "[You want to use your divine authority to force the people of Jade Void Palace out?]"

Yang Jian shook his head firmly and said, "No, I will use this divine power to survive, I will protect my sister!"

During his visit to Yuxu Palace, Yang Jian not only fulfilled a long-cherished wish, but also saw an opportunity to reclaim what he had lost from Yuxu Palace, and even more so, a more cruel future!
He had already sensed the danger!

They came from Jade Void Palace, the Nine Sages of Heresy, Buddhism... and even from the Heaven-Slaying Alliance!

The current situation in the Three Realms no longer allows me to remain neutral as before, and the gods of Heaven will not allow me to continue to "obey orders but not summons."

So I have to make a choice!

Yang Jian sighed and said:

Although Yu Ding Zhenren is dead, he still has his last bond and weakness, Yang Chan. As long as he has a weakness, he is not truly invincible!

If this drags on, neither the Heavenly Court nor the Nine Saints will let him off the hook, and Yang Chan will be the first to suffer the consequences.

My title is still within the Heavenly Court system, and I still bear the label of a disciple of Jade Void. Therefore, I cannot leave the Heavenly Court, and I can only choose the Heavenly Court!

"Then I must acquire enough power to have a voice in Heaven and withstand the coming storm!"

Thinking of this, Yang Jian couldn't help but feel fortunate that he had accepted Taibai Jinxing's invitation and become a great law enforcement god in the Heavenly Court.

Otherwise, given the current situation, He would really be in a difficult position.

But now that the power to oversee the Three Realms is in His hands, it would be a waste not to use such a powerful authority.

Therefore, Yang Jian must make good use of his divine authority as the warlord in order to protect his family as much as possible.

Therefore, Li Wei became very important.

After all, this is the Tiger of the Thunder Department, a renowned iron-blooded divine official, and the most resounding law enforcement figurehead in the Three Realms today.

Investigating cases is Li Wei's forte, so that's no problem for him. However, what he's curious about is:

Aren't you worried about the bad luck aura surrounding me?

Mentioning this, Yang Jian couldn't help but stiffen his expression:
My invincible body is flawless; even bad luck cannot easily invade it. As long as we maintain a proper balance, it's possible for us to spend some time together every day.

Moreover, misfortune may be a blessing in disguise, and a blessing may be a misfortune in disguise; in the principles of fate and destiny, fortune and misfortune are inherently intertwined. Therefore, bad luck is a form of calamity, a variable. Having you by my side should disrupt most of the script; even if some effects remain, they will become uncontrollable!

This is so important to me right now!

Why are the Three Pure Ones and the Heavenly Court terrifying?
Isn't it just because the script is well-written that it can kill people silently?

Bringing Li Wei along is like bringing along a manuscript editor, which is precisely what Yang Jian values ​​most.

Li Wei was astonished!
Yang Jian, relying on his invincible body, not only isn't afraid of my bad luck, but also wants to take advantage of it?
Indeed, skill breeds daring.

Are you really not afraid of death?!

Li Wei glanced at Yang Jian and felt that this guy's goal was not just to consolidate his power as military governor.

After arriving at the Jade Void Palace, He gave off a feeling of excitement and passion, and Li Wei always felt that He was going to cause trouble!
Fortunately, Li Wei has now mastered the ability to activate the "Extort All Beings" entry with the Light of the Creator, granting the Blood Mold Aura a certain degree of autonomy and intelligence.

Next, we should try to get the entry to be more "close" to Yang Jian and cooperate with him to accomplish some things.

Li Wei is currently considering the route of joining forces, and if he could follow Yang Jian and ask him for advice directly, it would definitely be twice as effective with half the effort.

Thinking of this, Li Wei nodded and said, "Then I'll respectfully accept your offer, but I wonder who we're investigating this time?"

Yang Jian chuckled and suddenly uttered a name: [Qingling Shila!]

Li Wei's pupils shrank instantly. He never expected that Yang Jian's target would be someone of the Five Elders of the Five Directions, and even more so, the First Elder of the Eastern Azure Spirit!
After all, among the five directions, the center is the most respected, followed by the east. Therefore, Elder Qingling's combat power is among the top of the five elders.

And don't forget, Elder Huang, who was previously in the position of the most respected, was killed by the combined forces of the Nine Saints using the power of Liangshan Marsh!

Therefore, Elder Qingling has now become the de facto number one of the Five Elders.

The Heavenly Court is in dire need of capable people right now, isn't investigating Him a bit too risky?

However, Li Wei thought again that it was probably necessary to investigate someone of the Five Elders' level in order to demonstrate the power of the warlord and make others hesitate to act rashly.

Moreover, the investigation didn't say anything about taking action. Whether to use the case to gain military merit, to give face to the elder, or to take the opportunity to win over the Heavenly Court, all are viable options.

Li Wei shared his guesses, which made Yang Jian burst into laughter.

[You're certainly suited for the Heavenly Court; you understand these dirty tricks at a glance. However, you've overlooked the most important reason!]

Oh? I'd like to hear more!

【I ask you, among the Four Emperors, who governs the East?】

Li Wei paused for a moment, then said with a hint of realization: "The Great Emperor of Eastern Qinghua..."

[That's right! There can't be two suns in the sky, nor two masters on earth, but within the Heavenly Court, there are two top-tier powerhouses who symbolize the vitality of the East, the sun, and life. These two have been secretly vying for divine power for quite some time.]

[I investigated Qingling, and found two things: first, she herself has problems; second, she can gain the support of the Qinghua Emperor, allowing me to directly acquire an ally of the Four Emperors level in the Heavenly Court!]

Yang Jian grinned maliciously and said, "This is how you become a god in Heaven. Without allies to help you, you can forget about holding onto divine power."

Finding allies isn't easy, and friends aren't necessarily allies, but the enemy of my enemy is always an ally!

The more we offend Qingling, the happier the Qinghua Emperor will be. After all, He has been eyeing Qingling Elder's divine authority for more than just a few thousand years, and He has already taken action, secretly eroding much of the Elder's interests!

I suspect that the reason He's colluding with the Dragon Clan this time is because He's worried about being eaten by the Qinghua Emperor!

It's no wonder it's the Heavenly Court.

They never disappoint when it comes to infighting.

Fortunately, this allowed people like Li Wei and Yang Jian to navigate the situation with ease.

Otherwise, based on what Li Wei had done before, he should have been caught by the Heavenly Court and executed ten times over!

However, because of the conflicting interests among the internal parties, the Supreme Emperor still regards Li Wei as his lucky general and has been secretly protecting him!

Of course, Li Wei's mistake was unforgivable, and Shang Hao himself dared not use him again.

Therefore, this protection is not about hoping Li Wei will return, but about hoping that he will be kept to bring more trouble to others, especially to Yang Jian and the Jade Void Palace!

"Old ginger is spicier, Second Brother. I admire your combination of force and persuasion, but I just don't understand what's wrong with Elder Qingling. How come even you can't figure it out?"

At this point, Yang Jian's expression turned serious, and he looked at Him intently, saying:

[My investigation revealed that during the Heavenly Court's first campaign against the Dragon Clan, He secretly engaged in numerous underhanded tactics, attempting to help the Dragon Clan escape their predicament.]

After much thought, I still can't find any motive behind it, so I suspect that guy might be connected to Heavenly Dao 7.20, or even have already made some kind of deal with Heavenly Dao 7.20!

Li Wei's expression suddenly turned strange.
