Chapter 255: The Prince Suffers Heaven's Punishment

Twenty-five days later, the Royal Guards and the envoys returned to Yanqi City with the magic stone.

Jun Mingyao asked his men to check and then set off back to Beijing.

With the protection of the Imperial Guards, they traveled peacefully for two days.

On the third day, when passing by the stone wall, the Royal Guards went to the front to inquire before passing.

There were a total of 5,000 imperial guards, 2,000 of them were on horseback in the front, the carriages of the second prince and the envoys were in the middle, and the remaining 3,000 were at the rear.

The scenery here is very beautiful. There are rocks on both sides of the road. There are some green growing in the cracks of the stone walls. I don’t know if it is weeds or tenacious trees. From time to time, a few birds fly by.

Jun Mingyao sat comfortably in the carriage, opened the curtains and admired the beautiful scenery.

His carriage slowly reached the middle of the road, and suddenly, an old immortal appeared above the stone wall.

The old immortal sat quietly in the vast heavenly palace, surrounded by clouds and mist, and auspicious auras. He sat on a magnificent golden throne, wearing a snow-white robe, with long flowing hair, like an immortal. His face was kind and solemn, and his eyes shone with a light of wisdom and compassion.

Sitting under his seat were two cute little fairies with double buns on their heads.

The old immortal's voice was like a huge bell, resounding throughout the heavenly palace: "Everything in the world has its spirituality. The sons chosen by heaven should be diligent in government and love the people, and have good intentions, because the people are the foundation of all things. How can those who have no benevolence, no talent and no virtue, and who bully the people be worthy of great responsibilities? They are definitely not the sons chosen by heaven. Do not confuse sentient beings with the people chosen by heaven, remember! Remember!..."

Beware of assassins, the royal guards took out bows and arrows and shot continuously, but the arrows could not hurt the immortals at all.

The old immortal was not affected by the arrow at all, and continued to speak with a normal expression: "In life, one should be kind, honest, and tolerant, do more good deeds, and accumulate merits. Only in this way can one obtain better blessings in the next life.

Jun Mingyao, you and your son colluded with foreign nations to commit many evils, disregarding the lives of the people of the state. Those who commit many injustices will be punished by heaven, and this is just a small punishment. I hope you can do less evil in the future, otherwise you will suffer more serious retribution! " His voice was as loud as a bell, echoing throughout the valley, making people feel awe.

The immortal disappeared as soon as he finished speaking, and then a bolt of lightning flashed across the entire canyon from where the immortal was just now, and headed straight for Jun Mingyao's carriage. Following closely, a bolt of lightning entered the carriage through the window and hit Jun Mingyao directly.

A bolt of lightning struck the carriage carrying the divine stone. This carriage had been modified by Yun Duo, with the protective device removed. If there were any flammable objects on the target, it would automatically burn. The divine stone was wrapped in brocade, and the carriage was made of wood, so it caught fire quickly.

If Yun Duo saw this, she would definitely give Cheng Yuheng a thumbs up for actually installing the lightning conductor directly on Jun Mingyao's clothes and the outer packaging of the magic stone.

As the lightning struck, Jun Mingyao's body was instantly pierced by an electric current, and his body shook violently. His hair stood up, emitting wisps of smoke. His eyes were wide open, filled with fear and pain, and his lips were trembling, but he could not make any sound.

The skin was covered with a layer of black ash, appeared charred, and emitted a pungent smell.

Jun Mingyao, with his afro and burnt clothes, sat there in fear, not daring to move. An unknown liquid flowed down his trouser legs onto the carpet in the carriage.

"Second Prince, save the Second Prince." Following a cry of surprise, Qiu Yubai, the left commander of the Imperial Guards, saw this and hurriedly dismounted and ran forward, shouting loudly as he ran.

At this time, the people who were making way for the Second Prince's carriage not far away also saw this thrilling scene. They were all terrified, and some even started screaming. Those who were a little braver knelt on the ground, chanting: "Greetings to the gods, greetings to the gods..."

At the same time, the people around also gathered around. Some of them had ecstatic expressions on their faces, as if they had seen some rare treasure; some of them had tears streaming down their faces, as if they were moved by the scene before them; and some people looked around in confusion, not knowing what was going on.

Gradually, more and more people gathered here and began to talk about it. Some people who had witnessed the scene excitedly told the people around them everything they had seen, including the appearance and dress of the mysterious immortal.

As a result, the legend about this immortal spread quickly.

The envoys and the imperial guards witnessed this thrilling scene, their faces full of astonishment and shock. Except for Cheng Yuheng's confidants, everyone else firmly believed that all this was a punishment from heaven. However, those confidants now admired the Crown Prince even more, and they secretly vowed in their hearts to follow him more firmly and serve him.

"God has shown his power!" Someone suddenly shouted, and this sentence was like a stone thrown into the lake, instantly stirring up thousands of waves. The people echoed: "Yes, it must be God's power!" "We are finally saved!" For a moment, cheers and cries intertwined, forming a spectacular scene.

Qiu Yubai ordered his men to maintain order, asked the accompanying doctor to treat the second prince, and ordered the royal guards in front to continue moving forward.

The second prince's carriage was no longer usable, so Qiu Yubai asked the second prince to get on the envoy's carriage and continue on their journey.

As for the burnt sacred stone, he took it with him as well.

Yun Duo saw the letter sent by Cheng Yuheng via eagle and happily shared it with Yun Teng and others.
