Chapter 4747: Settling Scores Later (4)
She immediately kicked Long Xueyuan's coffin away.
In such a critical moment, Long Qian simply didn't have time to think. Her brain instantly made the fastest reaction.
Use Long Xueyuan to block the attack!
A few minutes later, Long Xueyuan's body was torn to shreds by the lightning's power. Her soul body was even shattered into fragments, beyond any means of reassembly.
Long Hui stood dumbfounded for a long while, then turned to Long Qian and roared, "Grandmother! You, you!"
She spoke of finding the Ten-Thousand-Year Jiaolong Pearl to restore Long Xueyuan.
But it was all just an excuse in the end?
When she kicked Long Xueyuan out to block the lightning, why didn't she think more about how Long Xueyuan was the future hope of their Forgetful River?
When she sent Long Xueyuan to her death, why didn't she think about the immense contributions Long Xueyuan made to Forgetful River?
Who did Long Xueyuan ever offend to die without peace, and then be struck by lightning until she turned to ash?
And now, was Grandmother not heartbroken that Forgetful River had lost a great prophet, lost a highly talented cultivator?
Long Qian's expression was somewhat awkward. She vigilantly looked up at the Heavenly Dao.
If the Heavenly Dao hadn't attacked her without warning just now, how would she have instinctively kicked out Long Xueyuan's coffin to block it?
Could she be blamed for this?
This was a purely instinctive action, okay!
Little Commander looked at the old woman with contempt, "You are utterly disgusting."
At this moment, the thirteen elders also reacted, quickly pointing at Long Qian and saying, "Venerable One, it was her, she summoned us here."
The Heavenly Dao merely looked at them coldly, "You are the principal offenders, and she is an accomplice. Both shall receive the Heavenly Dao's judgment."
All thirteen elders' faces drastically changed.
Two of them immediately turned and fled into the distance.
Their speed was incredibly fast. In an instant, everyone saw only two tiny black dots on the sea surface, shooting away.
The Heavenly Dao didn't even bat an eyelid.
It was formless and shapeless, colorless and tasteless. Anything in heaven and earth could be it, or could not be it.
Any single drop of water in this sea could be it or not be it.
This is the Heavenly Dao.
These two elders were truly ridiculous.
Flee? Where could they possibly flee to? Where was their place of belonging?
The Heavenly Dao squinted coldly and said in a deep voice, "According to the rules of the Heavenly Dao, this Venerable will punish you with ninety-nine bolts of heavenly lightning!"
"Those who can withstand these ninety-nine bolts of heavenly lightning and remain immortal will be considered to have passed this tribulation. No further prosecution will occur."
The faces of the Saint Realm elders turned ashen, utterly devastated.
Ninety-nine bolts of heavenly lightning?
Back during the Five Spirits Reincarnation, the heavenly lightning stopped after a maximum of nine bolts.
Even then, it nearly killed them, making them vomit blood, taking away more than half their lives.
And now...
The Heavenly Dao actually said it would unleash ninety-nine bolts of punitive lightning.
Not everyone could be like Qiao Mu, able to stubbornly resist heavenly lightning and remain lively.
Nor could everyone be like Qiao Qiao, enjoying repeated tolerance from the Heavenly Dao.
Who had the ability to withstand ninety-nine bolts of heavenly lightning tribulation and not die?
They weren't indestructible, iron-forged bodies!
Even if they had ascended to the Super Divine Realm now, they were still flesh and blood, alright?
"Boom!"
A heart-shaking clap of thunder came from afar.
In just a moment, one bolt of heavenly lightning after another struck the sea surface, emitting thunderous roars.
The Heavenly Dao expressionlessly glanced at the elders whose faces were ashen.
With a flick of its finger, the two elders who had already flown far away were like tiny chicks caught by the scruff of their necks.
