Chapter 67: The Punishment
At this moment, a massive screen appeared in the starry sky of the Lingxuan continent.
Looking at the screen mid-air, many of the Lingxuan Continent's residents were confused.
However, it took Lin Feng and the others only a glance to tell that the scene being played was after the Heavenly Emperor's return to the Heavenly Palace after annihilating the Six Great Demon Kingdoms.
Soon after which he received wide recognition for exterminating the Six Great Demon Kingdoms.
Although the Heavenly Emperor, a.k.a. the Demon Slaughtering General Lin Yan, annihilated the Six Great Demon Kingdoms and had received recognition, as he didn't involve himself with the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom, he was punished with a hundred years of closed-door cultivation.
None knew of him using the corpses of the Six Great Demon Kingdoms' Lords to build a Formation Array for the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom's protection.
However, the members of Heavenly Palace had seen what Lin Yan had done through the Heavenly Mirror.
After the Demon clansmen of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom got the news of what the Heavenly Palace's Demon Slaughtering General Lin Yan had done, as they were unaware of what happened, they were furious.
If the Heavenly Palace didn't punish Lin Yan, they would be called shameless for not following the rules.
Thus, the punishment was issued by the former Heavenly Emperor himself.
However, it was a punishment just in name.
The punishment was pathetic.
Why did they go with the closed-door cultivation?
Lin Yan, the Demon Slaughtering General, would stay in the library and rarely come out in a hundred years.
Everyone in the Heavenly Palace knew that. So, it wasn't even a proper punishment for him.
They couldn't even cast a forbidden technique on Lin Yan, restricting him to the Heavenly Palace.
Though Lin Yan's face was a bit pale, he accepted the punishment, turned around, and went into the Heavenly Palace's library.
The closed-door cultivation wasn't a punishment for Lin Yan.
…
"A hundred years of closed-door cultivation? The Heavenly Emperor wouldn't be reading books in the Heavenly Palace's library for another hundred years, would he?"
"That's possible. He has already spent a hundred years in the Heavenly Palace's library before. Now under the pretext of closed-door cultivation, he will probably not go out anymore."
Many cultivators on Lin Feng's side began to mutter among themselves.
Right now, as the Heavenly Emperor's existence no longer pressured them, they appeared relaxed and watched the Heavenly Emperor's past as if watching a show.
The Heavenly Emperor's memories have nothing to do with them anyway.
…
At this moment, Teng Gang, who was protecting the remnant soul of Zhao Ling'er, had a complicated expression as he looked at the screen over his head.
"This is the time when he met several of us, and we ended up as sworn brothers."
Thinking back to that year, Teng Gang was gloomy.
Nevertheless, looking at this miserable Zhao Ling'er in front of him, Teng Gang's gloomy face immediately turned cold.

"Lin Yan, this is a new cake I baked. How does it taste?"
"Lin Yan, these spiritual pills are good for recovering from your injury, try it quickly."
"Lin Yan, I had a breakthrough to the Dao Attainment Realm."
In the starry sky, images of Xiao Mei pestering Lin Yan frequently appeared on the screen.
As Lin Yan had suffered many internal injuries because he had used secret techniques before, Xiao Mei often bought him various pills to treat him.
Although Lin Yan only saw Xiao Mei as the Heavenly Palace's Princess, the relationship between the two was much closer.
…
Xiao Mein felt an indescribable feeling well up in her heart when she saw her previous self in a dazed state.
Back then, as naive and innocent, she adored the Heavenly Emperor so much that she almost didn't sleep all night due to excitement when she heard that she was getting married to him.
However, the wedding day had become her biggest nightmare. It was the day her father was beheaded by the man she admired, who had now become her enemy.
She lived with this hatred for tens of thousands of years.
But now, with the Heavenly Emperor dead, Xiao Mei felt empty and was somewhat dazed.
If not for these images, she didn't even want to remember what happened next.
…
"Daughter, you take your leave first. I'll have a few words with Lin Yan."
Though Lin Yan stayed in the Heavenly Palace's library for two years, Xiao Mei still accompanied him daily.
One day, Xiao Mei's father, the former Heavenly Emperor, suddenly arrived with a smile and coaxed Xiao Mei away.
Only after Xiao Mei left did the former Heavenly Emperor turn his head to look at Lin Yan and inquire, "The Heavenly General Lin Yan, you must have recovered from your injuries, right?"
Putting down the book in his hand, Lin Yan stood up and replied, "Thanks to the Heavenly Emperor for having the princess send me the pills; I have already recovered."
Although Xiao Mei always brought him various pills in these two years to treat his injuries, Lin Yan thought that these pills were all deliberately given to Xiao Mei by the former Heavenly Emperor.
"What my daughter gave is what she wanted to give. It has nothing to do with me." The former Heavenly Emperor waved his hand with a smile. His expression turned solemn, and he said, "Lin Yan, it has been more than a hundred years since you joined my Heavenly Palace. Now the time has come for you to know some of the secrets of my Heavenly Palace."
"Secrets?" Curiosity flashed across Lin Yan's face.
Not just him, Lin Feng and the others were also curious.
After all, they feared the secret wasn't something simple as the Heavenly Emperor looked serious.
Under everyone's gaze, the former Heavenly Emperor waved his arm, and the duo, Lin Yan and him, instantly moved from the Heavenly Palace's library to another large hall in the Heavenly Palace.
In front of this huge hall, five sculptures were erected.
On the walls, countless names of people were deeply inscribed. There was nothing else in this hall other than that.
The former Heavenly Emperor raised his head to look at the five sculptures in front of him and said solemnly, "Lin Yan, these five sculptures are of the founders of the Heavenly Palace, the five Ancient Gods from ancient times."
"The Gods from Ancient times?" Lin Yan was stunned.
