Chapter 166 The lightning struck!

"Heavens above, if you have eyes, send down heavenly lightning to strike this monster dead."

At this moment, someone below shouted again.

No sooner had the man finished speaking than the wind and clouds in the sky changed instantly.

The sky suddenly darkened, and the clouds gradually turned black, piling up in layers.

Something seemed to be gathering power within the thick clouds.

The gleaming, sword-like object could still be faintly seen churning and flashing in the clouds.

"Heaven is watching, and it is time to send down heavenly lightning to strike this monster dead."

"It seems like there really is a mine."

"No way! Isn't Princess Fuqing a lucky star? How could she be a demon!"

Whether someone is a monster or not, Heaven will judge.

"Could this Princess Fuqing be some kind of evil spirit impersonating a lucky star? Now that this evil spirit has done such a thing that violates the natural order, even Heaven can't stand it anymore."

"I beg the heavens to punish this monster swiftly."

The sudden change in the sky, and the churning lightning in the clouds, seemed to confirm the words of these scholars.

Originally, most people did not believe that Princess Fuqing was a demon.

After all, all they knew was that Princess Fuqing was a lucky star sent from heaven. It was a hundred years ago, so it was hard to say. But since Princess Fuqing woke up this year, Daqing has been getting better and better.

Therefore, they did not believe that Princess Fuqing was a demon.

But then, lightning suddenly appeared again.

But this made them less certain, and a sense of doubt crept into their hearts.

The sudden change in the sky was witnessed by everyone in the capital.

The court officials all stayed at home. Although they did not participate in the scholars' actions, they kept an eye on the situation.

Seeing the sudden change in the sky, he couldn't help but frown.

"Does Master also think that Princess Fuqing is a demon?" Madam Zhen asked, standing under the eaves.

Lord Zhen, however, gazed at the ever-growing, dark, and seemingly about-to-pour-down lightning.

He shook his head and said, "How could Princess Fuqing be a demon?"

He and his courtiers could clearly see how much Heaven favored Princess Fuqing.

In their eyes, Princess Fuqing was God's own daughter.

God must be crazy to strike his own daughter with lightning.

"We only saw the lightning appear, but it's hard to say who it will strike," Lord Zhen said calmly, stroking his beard.

He wasn't the only one thinking this; the other court officials felt the same way.

If you provoke His Majesty, the most likely outcome is losing your head, but if you provoke Princess Fuqing, well, that's going against the heavens!

Princess Fuqing's authority is not to be challenged!

On the city wall, Sui Sui also gazed at the rolling thunder.

However, Sui Sui wasn't afraid because she felt that the lightning wouldn't harm her.

Sui Sui silently thought to herself: Let the Heavenly Thunder God punish those wicked people.

It seemed to have sensed Sui Sui's feelings.

The thunder that had been brewing in the clouds finally made its move.

With overwhelming force, layers of lightning struck down.

"The lightning struck down! It struck down!"

"That monster is about to be struck dead by heavenly lightning!"

The lightning did indeed strike.

Everyone in the capital saw it.

Moreover, the power of the lightning, tinged with blackish-purple, was indeed terrifying.

When Emperor Xuanhe arrived, he happened to see the lightning strike straight down.

Witnessing the power from heaven firsthand, even though Emperor Xuanhe was the emperor, he still felt his heart pounding violently.

Because the distance was so close, he could strongly feel the overwhelming force of the lightning and the intense sense of oppression. "Bang bang bang..."

A continuous stream of lightning then began to fall.

That imposing aura instilled fear in those nearby.

Some of the children even started crying.

Not far away, someone was running and shouting, "Heavenly lightning is punishing the monster! Heavenly lightning is punishing the monster!"

Heavenly lightning truly punished the demon!
However, that demon was not Princess Fuqing.

Everyone saw that Princess Fuqing was still perfectly fine on the city wall, without even a hint of fear on her face.

The lightning wasn't aimed at her at all that day.

But...

"The lightning struck those scholars."

"So, those scholars are the real monsters?"

"Even the heavens have spoken with lightning. Who is the monster, and who deserves the heavens' recognition? Isn't that obvious?"

"Princess Fuqing is a lucky star! She is not a demon."

"The two policies Your Majesty has promulgated are correct and deserve the approval of Heaven."

Countless people knelt down amidst the dense thunderbolts.

In this era that believes in divine will.

The will of Heaven is the most correct.

Therefore, the people believed in Heaven.

They also believed in and obeyed the will of Heaven, Emperor Xuanhe and Princess Fuqing.

As for those pedantic scholars...

They defied the will of Heaven and caused trouble; they deserved to be struck down!

That's right, the scholars were struck by lightning.

Moreover, not only the scholar who initially shouted the loudest, but all the scholars who participated in the riot at the palace gate were all killed!

They were blasted black, their bodies were smoking from head to toe, their hair was sticking up, and their clothes were blown apart.

It was chopped so well that it was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside!
One second ago, they were shouting, but now they all shut up.

At this moment, one by one, the charred bodies crashed to the ground, unable to move any further.

God: I've put up with you for too long! How dare you call my own daughter a monster? I'll show you what a monster you are! Didn't you say you wanted God to strike down the monsters? Well, I'll strike you down right now!!!

Emperor Xuanhe was stunned for a long time before he finally came to his senses.

He then clapped his hands and laughed, "Good, good."

That's really great.

He was initially worried about how to resolve this issue, but now, fate has solved it for him!

Emperor Xuanhe's gaze fell on his little princess, his eyes shining.

Sure enough, the little princess is God's favorite daughter. Anyone who dares to oppose, bully, or slander the little princess will be vindicated by God!

"Heavens above, please don't strike them dead, just shut their stinking mouths." Sui Sui still felt a little sorry for them, so she pleaded.

Almost the instant Sui Sui spoke up to plead for mercy, the lightning that had been blasting at the scholars stopped abruptly.

God: Alright, since my own daughter pleaded for you, I'll spare you for now.

"The lightning really stopped."

"Lightning actually listens to Princess Fuqing."

"Of course, Princess Fuqing is a lucky star, or perhaps a reincarnation of an immortal."

Then, the people witnessed something even more miraculous.

The lightning that filled the sky began to shrink, then became a thin, purple line, which, as if reluctant to part with Sui Sui, circled around her.
