Chapter 325: Go straight to Lei Mansion and meet Tianzun

All palaces and buildings in Heaven were built on pure white auspicious clouds, except for the Thunder Palace, which stood among the rolling thunderclouds.

Thunder flashes, silver snakes dance wildly, and the most powerful and masculine energy between heaven and earth gathers here.

This piece of dark cloud is called the blue sky Buddhist air. The Shenxiao Yuqing Mansion where Wen Zhong lives is located in this blue sky Buddhist air.

Thunder is evolved from the primordial energy of chaos. It is the purest yang force between heaven and earth, pointing directly to the foundation of the Great Dao.

When Wen Rui walked into the thundercloud, he felt a tingling sensation all over his body. If it were not for the protection of his merits, his mortal body would have been turned into ashes by the lightning that was surging like waves.

Continuing to go deeper, Wen Rui saw a huge iron city. The iron city was washed by lightning all year round. The city walls were as black as jade, and the battlements and eaves emitted a dark red light, like semi-molten iron.

This huge city is Leicheng.

Leicheng is where thunder comes from in heaven, and all thunder and lightning in the world come from this city.

In addition, Leicheng is also a prison for imprisoning evil spirits. Demons and ghosts with evil attributes are locked up and imprisoned in heaven, and they are imprisoned here.

There are several other similar prisons in Heaven.

Gods and demons with fire or yang attributes will be imprisoned in the Tianhe Water Prison. The water prison is sunk into the abyss of the Weak Water. Anyone who attempts to escape will surely drown in the Weak Water.

In addition, the Five Sacred Mountains in the mortal world also serve as earth-attributed prisons to suppress evildoers and sinful immortals.

The demons imprisoned in Thunder City want to escape and ascend to heaven. Even if they can break through the guards of Thunder City, they will be killed by lightning as soon as they enter the blue sky and Buddhist energy.

Wen Rui flew over Lei City. There were two generals of the Thunder Department guarding Lei City. The two generals treated the newcomer as a formidable enemy and went to meet him together.

But when they saw it was Wen Rui, they all bowed and said respectfully, "Mr. Wen."

Wen Rui also recognized these two generals. They were Deng Zhong and Xin Huan. They were the classic image of Lei Gong, with a human body and a bird's head, and a pair of wings on his back.

In the story of Journey to the West, people often say that Sun Wukong has the face of Thunder God, which means that he has a pointed chin and monkey cheeks, and looks like Thunder God with a bird's beak.

Wen Rui bowed in return and called out, "My two junior brothers, long time no see," then hurried past.

Passing by Leicheng, we continued to go deep into the blue sky and Buddhist energy for nearly three thousand miles. In the distance, a magnificent palace stood in the clouds. The palace was surrounded by purple thunder and thousands of auspicious lights. It was full of oppression just from a distance.

Wen Rui guessed that it must be the Shenxiao Yuqing Palace, also known as the Jiutian Yingyuan Palace, which was the office of his cheap father.

Arriving at the main gate of the Shenxiao Lei Mansion, Wen Rui descended from the clouds, stepped forward, and walked into the house under the watchful eyes of a group of heavenly soldiers from the Thunder Department holding huge hammers and steel nails.

Although Wen Rui had just been crowned the Great Emperor, he did not dare to act rashly when he arrived at Wen Tianzun's office.

The Emperor of Heaven sounds like a very high-ranking official, but in front of Wen Tianzun, he is nothing more than that.

Under Wen Zhong's seat, he commands the Five Thunder Emperors, each of whom is at the same level as Wen Rui.

Moreover, Wen Rui knew this cheap father's character very well. In the past, he had been repeatedly scolded by him in the court of Yin Shang: "You must be qualified at work!"

Wen Rui also believed that if he dared to make trouble in the Heavenly Palace and seriously violated the Heavenly Rules, this impartial Heavenly Lord would never care about the relationship between father and son, and would say "arrest him if necessary, sentence him if necessary!" He would personally escort him to the authorities and deal with him impartially.

When they arrived at the first gate, two heavenly generals stood on the left and right as guards. Wen Rui bowed and said, "Lord Tao, Lord Zhang, please let me know that Emperor Wen Rui of Creation is here to pay his respects to Lord Wen."

"How dare we!" The two heavenly generals hurriedly responded, "Little Grand Master, why do you need to report this? The Lord of Heaven has already known about it. You can just go into the palace."

These two generals were also acquaintances of Wen Rui, namely Tao Rong and Zhang Jie, who had both served in Wen Zhong's army.

Arriving at the Thunder Department, Wen Ruizhen felt just like going home. The twenty-four celestial monarchs who were in charge of urging clouds and rain and protecting the law that he met along the way were all his former subordinates in the army or fellow disciples of the Jiejiao sect.

There are many disciples in Jiejiao, and they are a mixed bag. Of course, there are also many low-class villains among them, but these deified Thunder Gods are all loyal people with good conduct. They followed Wen Zhong and Wen Rui, father and son, in their battles in the North Sea and guarding the four directions, and shared a lot of merits in protecting the country and the people.

As early as five hundred years ago, the generals had been deeply impressed by Wen Rui's talents. Five hundred years later, when they saw Wen Rui again, they still respected him very much.

After passing through the gate, Wen Rui continued to move forward and finally arrived at the Leizu Hall. When he entered the hall, he saw a tall and mighty god standing in the hall.

The god had his back to Wen Rui and was facing a huge picture of mountains, rivers, and the country. Clouds of various colors were floating in the picture, like a miniature projection of reality.

Whenever scarlet clouds gathered in the picture, the god would point his finger, and a fine ray of lightning would shoot out from his fingertips, spotting the red clouds and dispersing them.

Or if there is no cloud in a certain place in the picture for a long time, the god will throw out a golden talisman. The talisman will fly out of the hall, and a team of thunder soldiers equipped with a full set of magical instruments for making clouds and rain will take the talisman and leave.

Wen Rui walked forward slowly and stood behind the divine man, without making any noise to disturb him, just waiting silently.

The Ministry of Thunder is the department with the most complicated administrative affairs among all the departments in the Heavenly Palace.

In this vast mortal world, there is always thunder and rain somewhere.

Thunder is needed to move clouds and rain, to kill evil spirits, and to assess immortals who have transcended tribulations. Government affairs must be carried out at every moment and there is no rest for a moment.

After waiting quietly for a long time, there was no sign of luck decreasing at all. Wen Rui was getting impatient and muttered, "Old man, you are forcing yourself to do this. Do you want me to give you an AI-assisted system to help you build a data model to automatically evaluate the necessity of lightning strikes, so that you don't have to do it yourself all the time?"

After mumbling this, Wen Rui scratched his head and said, "That's not right. You are already at the Heavenly Venerable level. It would be a piece of cake for you to send out a clone to do the work for you. Are you doing this on purpose for me to see?"

As expected, as soon as Wen Rui finished speaking, the god split into two. One of them was still guarding the thunder in front of the Jiangshan Sheji Tu, while the other turned around with a dark face.

"How dare you come to see me, you evil creature?"

The man in front of him looked very similar to Wen Rui, except that his beard was as white as a spear, his eyes were as sharp as lightning, his temperament was extremely majestic, and the vertical eye in the middle of his forehead shone with golden light. He was a hundred times better than Wen Rui's sloppy and lazy appearance.

One is the genuine one, and the other is a low-quality youth version. Wen Rui usually COSs them and they look very similar, but when the real and fake are compared together, the quality difference is very obvious.

He was questioned as soon as they met, and Wen Rui had no idea what he had done to deserve being investigated by his cheap father.

But he really had too many fleas to be afraid of being bitten, and he had done so many bad things that he couldn't remember them all. Instead, he had an unusually peaceful mentality and could not be frightened at all.

Tianzun's angry rebuke was like thunder, but Wen Rui looked calm, as if bathed in spring breeze, and said with a playful smile: "Of course I dare, I have always wanted to ask you in heaven, why didn't you listen to my advice at the beginning? If you had listened to a few words from me on the eve of the decisive battle, how could you have suffered such a disastrous defeat?"

Wen Tianzun's momentum suddenly stagnated, and he said with a complicated expression: "There is a destiny in the dark, it is fate, there is nothing we can do about it..."
