Hoult, who had personally passed the letter to Sally, let out a sigh and closed his eyes. Norman, who had been by his side, grinned and said, "It's over for Fang Xingjian."
Hoult shook his head. "That's right, it's over." However, there was an indescribable disappointment in his tone.
After Sally finished reading the letter, she looked at James and the others and asked, "Do you guys have anything else to say?" She looked down at James, Hoppes, and the others from above, as if she was the one with the stronger abilities.
James and Hoppes frowned, but they were unable to come up with any solution.
However, Governor Devitt remained unperturbed, as if he did not mind this scene at all.
When the Regional Chief saw him like this, he could not help but ask, "You're just going to look on?"
Devitt waved his hand and said, "It's fine, it's fine." The corners of his lips curled up into a hint of a smile. "Everything is under control."
A hint of doubt flashed in the Regional Chief's eyes. However, at the next moment, he thought of the Second Prince's intelligence capabilities and thought that Devitt must have something to rely on for saying this. He was curious as to how Devitt was going to turn the tables.
"That damned Fang Xingjian. He released this sword technique for everyone to learn?"
"To think that it has fatal side effects. His status as a Conferred Knight should be revoked."
"And the Pantheon Monument and the Killing Techniques Palace … He must have cheated as well."
Almost everyone on the spectator's stand felt fury and disgust toward the Rebirth Sword Technique and Fang Xingjian.
Lilia and Ferdinand looked at the people who were scolding Fang Xingjian, and their countenances gradually turned grim. Their eyes were filled with panic. If today's incident were to end like this, then Fang Xingjian would undoubtedly become a pillar of shame in history, and his name would truly go down in infamy for ten thousand years.
James's face trembled a little, and he stood up abruptly. His violent martial will swept through the entire place as if it was a material attack, instantly suppressing everyone's scolding.
Sally looked at Head of Department James coldly and said arrogantly, "Senior James, I know that you're very strong and at second transition level 29. I'm afraid that no one here today will be a match for you. However, even if you can kill everyone here today, you won't be able to change the world's opinion. There's no doubt about the Rebirth Sword Technique. If you guys are unable to prove it, then get Fang Xingjian to come out and get the creator of the Rebirth Sword Technique to answer our questions. "If he is also unable to answer today, I'll exercise the authority that the association has given me and apply for a ban on the dissemination and exchange of the Rebirth Sword Technique, as well as all related experiments within the country."
James exhaled, finally understanding the other party's plan. They could prove time and time again that there were no problems with the Rebirth Sword Technique. How many people had managed to successfully cultivate it?
However, even if they pulled out ten thousand people, or even a hundred thousand people, they would not be able to cover up the one hundred people who had failed or were about to die.
"These guys really deserve to die."
Thinking of all these, James looked at the empty seat next to Fang Xingjian and felt that it was a good thing that Fang Xingjian had not come today.
Sally slapped the table and bellowed, "Fang Xingjian! Is he afraid? Is he ashamed? For his own selfishness, he's letting so many young people and the Empire's future pay for his success and fame. He's a leech that's stuck to the Empire. Such a person isn't fit to be a Conferred Knight. "
As Sally spoke, she seemed to feel a faint pain on her shoulder. She shouted, "I'll ask one more time. Where is Fang Xingjian? If he still doesn't appear, then according to the rules, I'll treat it as him giving up on this arbitration."
When Sword Saint Sasa, who had returned, heard this, the corners of his lips curled up slightly. "It's over for Fang Xingjian."
Many people in the spectator stands also shouted, "Revoke Fang Xingjian's status as a Conferred Knight!"
"Arrest him! Put him on trial! "
"The circulation of the Rebirth Sword Technique must be banned!"
Sally nodded. Just as she was about to say something, the door opened …
…
Elsewhere, just a few minutes ago, Fang Xingjian and Zhou Xingwen had walked into the main hall of the Municipal Government. They walked along the wide corridor, and the sound of their footsteps kept ringing out in the spacious corridor. On their way forward, a tall and big silhouette blocked their way.
Armstrong, whose face was covered in scars, stood there steadily. He had a smile on his face, and although he was covered in scars, he still gave off a gentle feeling.
"Lord Armstrong!" Zhou Xingwen said respectfully, "Lord, why have you come out?"
"I've been waiting for you guys." Armstrong said solemnly, "Xingjian, why have you come so late? The situation inside is already very grim."
"Oh? The arbitration panel has the upper hand? "
Armstrong patted him on the shoulder and asked, "Are you confident? If you can't, you can leave now."
"What?" Zhou Xingwen was taken aback. Had the arbitration panel's situation become so grim?
Fang Xingjian smiled and said, "It's impossible for me to lose."
Looking at the confidence in Fang Xingjian's eyes, Armstrong said softly, "Is that so?" As he spoke, an extremely sinister, vicious, and venomous information current slowly darted into Fang Xingjian's brain from his palm.
As a level 29 Conferred Knight, he had personally activated the Killing technique — Small Puppet Technique. The attack was so secretive that even the Heavenly Abyss Annihilation Armor was unable to detect it, let alone react to it.
"The Small Puppet Technique is a secret technique from the Ancient Path of Hell. Those who know about it say that it's the most venomous Killing technique in history." A hint of contempt flashed in Armstrong's eyes as he looked at the unresponsive Fang Xingjian.
As the First Prince's most secretive clone, he grasped the power of the soul from the thirty-six Hell's Maps. It was also one of the thirty-six powers of hell.
Together with the Small Puppet Technique, he could even slightly affect a level 29 Conferred Knight, let alone Fang Xingjian. Heaven-Shaking Sword Potter, for example, had been controlled by him to the point where he had no control over his own life and death. He was still lying unconscious on the hospital bed.
Of course, this Killing technique would only be effective if it was continuously performed, and the distance it could be performed was not more than ten meters. More importantly, it could only be used to control the physical body and was unable to change the heart and memories of the person being controlled. Therefore, it could not be used to assist the First Prince in signing the Hell's Maps.
Armstrong looked at Fang Xingjian and asked, "Oh? Where do you get your confidence from? Tell me and I'll give you some advice. "
"There's no need. You'll know once I go in and tell you."
Fang Xingjian took a step forward and was about to go around Armstrong's body when the latter patted him on the shoulder. The Small Puppet Technique was activated, and together with the concealed information current, an extremely mysterious and venomous information current gushed toward Fang Xingjian's consciousness.
"I think it's better if you tell me now."
There seemed to be a strange gleam flashing in Armstrong's eyes, and the words he spoke also contained a mysterious charm.
However, Fang Xingjian blinked, looking at him as if he was looking at a fool. Simultaneously, the letter on his chest shone brightly.
Armstrong's countenance changed. He wanted to retreat, but he realized that he could no longer move.
