Chapter 250: Bureau of Celestial Supervision

Chapter 250 Heaven Monitoring Bureau

When Li Huowang saw him pick up those torture instruments again, Han Fu's Nascent Soul was truly terrified, "No! Don't, don't, don't!!" That little head struggled in fear to tilt backward, his mouth attempting to divert the other party's attention.

"I really don't know much about the Sitting Forgetting Sect! If you want to deal with them, go find the Heaven Monitoring Bureau! They must know many things about the Sitting Forgetting Sect."

"Heaven Monitoring Bureau?" Li Huowang put down the instruments in his hand, looking at the other thoughtfully. "Isn't that the imperial office used to handle evil spirits? Do they know the Sitting Forgetting Sect very well?"

The Nascent Soul nodded vigorously and repeatedly, "Yes! They are deadly rivals!! Something like the Sitting Forgetting Sect gets chased away by the Heaven Monitoring Bureau wherever it goes."

"Especially over two hundred years ago, the Emperor of Dongxia was replaced by the Sitting Forgetting Sect, resulting in Dongxia directly losing its nation! Since then, the Heaven Monitoring Bureau has cared deeply about the Sitting Forgetting Sect!"

"Moreover, regarding dealing with the Sitting Forgetting Sect, places like Qingqiu, Daliang, Siqui, and Houshu, their Heaven Monitoring Bureaus are all in cahoots! Many messages are not hidden! They must know something!"

"Oh? Is that so....." Li Huowang sat back on the stool, beginning to ponder.

"Since North Wind is one of the Four Joys of the Sitting Forgetting Sect, and both sides have been long-standing deadly rivals, regarding this old opponent, the Heaven Monitoring Bureau cannot fail to collect intelligence, perhaps one can truly find North Wind's background from the Heaven Monitoring Bureau."

Li Huowang was no longer demanding now, finding North Wind directly, then forcing him to tell himself the method to escape confusion.

First he needed to clarify whether the statement that North Wind is a Heart Element capable of escaping confusion was true or false.

Although Li Huowang desperately hoped this statement was true in his heart, he did not forget that these words came from the mouth of the Sitting Forgetting Sect.

Before taking action, one must first distinguish the truth of this major premise, otherwise he feared being tricked once again by a dead member of the Sitting Forgetting Sect.

Only if North Wind is truly a Heart Element, and indeed has a way to escape confusion, does he have the general direction for his next actions.

"Heaven Monitoring Bureau..... Heaven Monitoring Bureau..." After muttering to himself for a while, Li Huowang's gaze focused again on the deformed face of the Nascent Soul before him.

"Tell me everything in your brain about the Heaven Monitoring Bureau, think slowly, remember to be detailed, your pain will be less."

Subsequently through Han Fu's Nascent Soul's mouth, Li Huowang learned that, plainly speaking, the Heaven Monitoring Bureau was used to help those in power handle matters soldiers could not, such as certain great evil spirits lurking in cities, and some other troubles.

Of course, the Sitting Forgetting Sect, fearing chaos in the world, must be their top priority care.

"Is it only the Sitting Forgetting Sect? What about the likes of Aojing Sect and Zhengde Temple, do they not manage them?" Li Huowang asked again.

Hearing his words, a trace of confusion appeared in Han Fu's Nascent Soul's single eye. "Why manage them, they are prestigious orthodox sects."

"Bullshit! How can they possibly be prestigious orthodox sects! They! They...." Li Huowang stopped here, cupping his chin with his hand, thinking seriously for a moment, and absurdly discovered he was actually right, there was no need to manage them.

One was a cultivator tormenting his own people, the other at most could be called a monk who broke the precept against lust, even if they caused trouble fiercely during daily life, they only made noise within their own nests, and would not affect the ruler's empire and state, the previous Zhengde Temple was built within the capital city, which was enough to show its status in the hearts of certain people.

He didn't believe the Emperor in the same city wouldn't know if Zhengde Temple did good deeds like bestowing children, since they did not intervene, it meant such matters were tacitly approved in his eyes, in the past Li Huowang always thought these two groups were cults. But comparing with various encounters afterwards, he finally realized, in terms of harming people, they couldn't even compare to highway robbers, or water bandits forcing people to eat knife-rolled noodles and wonton noodles.

Not to mention Anci Nunnery, compared to other existences, this group of dirty nuns possessing greed, anger, and ignorance completely, were simply earth-bound Bodhisattvas carrying Buddha light on their backs.

"What about your Luo Sect? You have killed so many people, doesn't the Heaven Monitoring Bureau give you trouble?" Li Huowang took out those nineteen Life Span Pills, arranging them in a row before Han Fu's Nascent Soul.

"That's what they say, but as long as cultivators practice normally, just killing a few people occasionally, as long as they don't offend some high officials and nobles, the Heaven Monitoring Bureau will turn a blind eye,"

"Heh heh." Hearing this, Li Huowang smiled without showing it in his eyes, "Then this Heaven Monitoring Bureau is truly conscientious and responsible."

The Nascent Soul detected the sarcasm in Li Huowang's words, opening his mouth to explain: "Actually, the relationship between the Heaven Monitoring Bureau and us is not like cats and mice, the Heaven Monitoring Bureau is also willing to use disciples from some sects to handle affairs, some of my senior brothers have worked for the Heaven Monitoring Bureau."

Through his explanation, Li Huowang learned that the Heaven Monitoring Bureau implemented a method of loose outside and tight inside, peripheral work was done by loose cultivators and wild cultivators like Han Fu.

For these people it was completely a wide net casting method, as long as the problem could be solved, no matter what method, sometimes even both parties didn't need to meet face to face.

And their true enemies were mainly existences like the Sitting Forgetting Sect that feared chaos in the world, as well as some extremely harmful evil spirits, or perhaps their most important target, responding to catastrophes.

"Wait, what did you say? Catastrophe!?"

Upon hearing this word, Li Huowang immediately became alert. He himself already knew of two catastrophes, one was the rotting disappearance experienced personally, one was the deception disappearance learned from Han Fu's mouth.

And responding to catastrophes turned out to be the most important matter for the Heaven Monitoring Bureau.

Suddenly, Li Huowang slapped his forehead somewhat regretfully, so-called interpreting meaning from words, from the name Heaven Monitoring Bureau one could guess, this organization was most likely created because of responding to catastrophes.

Resulting in such a simple matter, he actually only reacted until now.

"Then how does the Heaven Monitoring Bureau respond to catastrophes, and how do they make catastrophes disappear?" Li Huowang asked Han Fu's Nascent Soul again, he was truly curious, what exactly was going on in this mad world.

"How they respond, I really don't know, I am not a person of the Heaven Monitoring Bureau! I really didn't lie to you!"

Regarding the Nascent Soul's words, Li Huowang was obviously not surprised at all, the fact that the other party knew so much was already quite good.

"Friend Li, is Han Fu's Seven Star Sword in your hand?"

Han Fu's Nascent Soul's voice made the pondering Li Huowang lift his head, looking at him. "Seven Star Sword? Are you talking about that copper coin sword?"

"Yes! I tell you, that is a good thing! That Seven Star Sword was crafted by our master personally using one hundred and eighty-four ancient coins on the Shen year, lunar Wu month, Wu day, Wu hour, eight festivals, Three Yuan days! It can drain the earth qi of Two Black and Five Yellow, having the effect of transforming evil and driving away demons!"
