"God dammit, this little bastard is pushing the problem to me …"
When Fang Xing said those words indifferently, not only were all the people in the hall shocked, even Lu Sou's expression changed. He began to curse inside, tempted to choke the little bastard to death immediately. However, he was an old daemon that had lived for several millennia after all. With a slight thought, he understood Fang Xing's intentions, and countless countermeasures appeared …
To outsiders, his expression did not even change at all. He only nodded calmly when Fang Xing said those words, before taking a step forward and circling around the hall. He said nonchalantly, "My surname is Chen, and my name is Zhulu. People call me mister Lu, and I'm from the Nan Zhan of the Tian Yuan Continent. I specialize in formations, and although my talent is lacking, I was fortunate enough to have a good master and a good friend, allowing my cultivation to progress smoothly. When the Nine Coffins of Heaven's Origin descended, I sensed that there was a great secret hidden within, so I did not want my abilities to be used by others. After the God race invaded the Tian Yuan Continent, I abandoned the world and followed the path of immortality to the thirty-three heavens, seeking the path of immortality …"
When he reached there, everyone in the hall was shocked. Their hearts churned.
Lu Sou became calmer and calmer as he spoke. He bowed towards Fang Xing and continued, "… On the way through the Dragon's World, someone plotted against me. I was on the brink of death, but I barged into the Tomb of the Great Void Immortal King in my moment of despair. I coincidentally disrupted the restrictions cast down by the Great Void Immortal King and disturbed the immortal soul, but I accidentally released his majesty Di Liu, who was suppressed by him … or rather, he was saved by his majesty Di Liu. He was filled with gratitude and decided to serve the prince. He followed him until today. All of his fortune was bestowed upon him by his majesty …"
"A cultivator of the Tian Yuan Continent!"
At this moment, Lu Sou, who was usually indifferent and rarely attracted attention, had suddenly become the focus of all the cultivators in the hall!
Many people here had seen Lu Sou before. They all thought that he was an advisor that the Emperor Flow found after his return. When they first saw him, he was already a Righteous Immortal with an Immortal Fate, so no one doubted his identity. However, they didn't expect this ordinary-looking old man to have such a great background. He was a cultivator from Heaven's Origin who wanted to become an immortal …
Not only did he explain how Lu Sou had come to the Thirty-three Heavens, he even explained how Di Liu had been reborn. As it turned out, Di Liu had actually found the Tomb of the Immortal King a thousand years ago, but he had been suppressed there. Only a thousand years later did a cultivator of the Tian Yuan Continent accidentally barge in and save him …
Without a doubt, Lu Sou's explanation was simple, but it was to many things.
And because it was so simple, there were very few flaws. Everyone in the hall was stunned for a moment!
While Zhu Xiu was still in shock, Fang Xing calmly said, "Do you understand now? Heh, perhaps I know better than all of you what Heaven's Origin is like. I can tell with a single glance whether or not I'm a traitor cultivator of Heaven's Origin. All of you used such a despicable method to test me and slander me. What exactly are you up to? "
At the end of his sentence, his tone became heavier, and his gaze was like a sword that landed on the "captive of the Tian Yuan Continent"!
At this time, just digesting what Lu Sou had said was enough to shock the Immortals in the hall. Naturally, no one doubted Fang Xing's accusation that the captive of the Tian Yuan Continent was a fake. Instead, most of them believed Fang Xing's words. The captive was so shocked that his expression changed. At the thought of Di Liu's ferocious reputation and boundless authority, his heart collapsed. He suddenly broke free from the support of the three Black Prison immortal officials, fell to his knees, and kowtowed heavily …
"Prince, please spare my life. This has nothing to do with me. I'm just a prisoner who followed the army. I should have risked my life to charge at the enemy. It was Mister Wuji who found me and ordered me to blend in with these people. If I ask Prince before entering the cauldron, he will spare my life …"
As he said this, the three Black Prison immortal officials also knelt on the ground, trembling.
It was obvious that the three of them were involved in this matter.
"Whoosh!"
Just as the prisoner broke down and spilled the beans, a silver light flashed across the hall and directly hit the center of the prisoner's forehead, shattering his Divine Soul. Naturally, he could not say the rest of his words. However, at this moment, everyone's gaze followed the silver light and looked at Advisor Wu Jizi, who was kneeling on the right side of Immortal General Zi Xuan. This person was sweating profusely, and his eyes were unfocused. His face was extremely pale, and his eyes were filled with shock and fear. Obviously, he had realized that he had made a mistake!
He was the one who struck the silver sword just now, but he immediately regretted it after he struck it.
When he saw that the prisoner was about to spill the beans, he wanted to silence him. Unfortunately, at this time, what was the use of silencing him?
Fang Xing's position was closer to the prisoner. If he wanted to stop him, he could have easily taken away the silver sword. However, he only sneered and watched the prisoner strike the silver light. He did not have any intention of stopping him, because he knew that it was useless!
The immortals in the hall were not fools. How could they not hear the clues?
Just as the Emperor had said, this Heavenly Yuan captive was a fake!
He was merely an Itinerant Immortal from the 33 Heavens. Because he had violated the laws of the Immortal Realm, he had been sent to the extraterritorial battlefield. When the war began, this kind of prisoner would be used as cannon fodder to break the enemy's formation and test the restrictions. He would definitely die. Wu Jizi had obviously found him and made him promise to blend in with the Heavenly Yuan captives and shout this to the Emperor!
As for the purpose of shouting this sentence, there were many possibilities …
However, no matter what, such an insidious scheme against a dignified Emperor was a great crime!
"Haha, so it was indeed arranged by you …"
Only when Wu Jizi was about to collapse did Fang Xing speak calmly. He looked at Yu Jizi, who had been acting mighty and domineering just a moment ago. He chuckled and said, "Then tell me, who instructed you to make this arrangement?"
His words caused the immortals in the hall to feel nervous.
This Emperor did not ask him what his purpose was, but directly asked him who instructed him to do this. Clearly, he had evil intentions!
"I …"
Wu Jizi was completely dumbfounded, and his mouth was dry. He was not going to be like the prisoner who had been frightened by the Crown Prince and spilled everything. Firstly, he was not that reckless, and secondly, he was not that courageous. Furthermore, he was an advisor after all. Although his plan had been disrupted by Fang Xing and he was caught off guard, he quickly thought of an excuse for himself. After his expression changed a few times, he suddenly stood up and knelt down in front of Fang Xing. He cried out, "Wu Jizi was reckless. Please forgive me, Crown Prince …"
Fang Xing's expression did not change, nor did he speak. He only looked at him indifferently.
Wu Jizi steeled his heart. He knew that this was the time to shoulder all the responsibility, so he said in a low voice, "This lowly one did this because a Traveling Immortal discovered unbelievable news while exploring the various realms. This lowly one did not dare to believe it, so I had to …"
"Had to what?"
Although the immortals in the hall did not speak, their minds were very active at this moment. They wanted to hear everything!
When they saw Wu Jizi admit that he was the one who instructed him to do this, they were even more curious about his motives …
But at this moment, Immortal General Zixuan coughed softly. Wu Jizi immediately shut his mouth and did not dare to continue.
"This is all nonsense. There is no need to tell the Emperor …"
Celestial General Zixuan didn't even look up as he slowly stood up. "However, since you acted on your own and did such a disgraceful thing, you should be punished. As for how to be punished, you can ask His Highness the Crown Prince how to vent his anger!"
"This … Understood!"
Wu Jizi's face was pale. After a moment of daze, he replied with a trembling voice.
But Immortal General Zixuan frowned, and without saying a word, he actually entered the rear hall.
The entire hall was left behind, and all of them were discussing animatedly with each other. All of them were terrified and didn't know what to say.
Obviously, most of them did not know what was going on. Although they had some guesses, they were still full of doubts.
"Your Highness, this lowly Immortal …"
Wu Jizi had no choice but to brace himself, bow to Fang Xing, and speak with difficulty.
He was shouldering all the responsibility and asking for punishment from Fang Xing.
"Who do you think you are? How dare you test me?"
Fang Xing said coldly, interrupting Wu Jizi's words. The atmosphere became even more oppressive.
"This lowly Immortal deserves to die. I am willing to accept all punishment!"
Wu Jizi made up his mind. He cupped his hands and bowed again. His voice was filled with determination.
"You must know how I dealt with those who angered me in the past. What can a Primordial Unity Supreme Immortal or a family head do to me, let alone a mere advisor like you? How many family heads have died at my hands and had their souls obliterated, never to be reincarnated? " As Fang Xing spoke in a low voice, Wu Jizi's forehead broke out in cold sweat with every sentence he spoke. However, when he reached the end, Fang Xing paused. "However, on account of the Immortal General, I will not kill you …"
Wu Jizi was overjoyed. He almost fainted from joy and was about to kowtow.
But Fang Xing's voice rang out again, and he said indifferently, "Go in by yourself!"
"Huh?"
Wu Jizi was stunned. He lifted his head and looked at Fang Xing in confusion.
A sneer appeared on Fang Xing's face. He gently raised his hand and pointed at the cauldron in the hall, "This cauldron of yours is quite interesting. I also want to play with it. It just so happens that you've offended me, so you can enter it yourself. Don't say that I didn't give you a chance to weaken the flames by thirty percent. With your cultivation, I believe that it won't be so easy to refine it. Just obediently stay in there for six hours. If you're still alive after six hours, then I'll let bygones be bygones …"
"Ah …"
When Wu Jizi heard this, his face turned pale and he fell to the ground.
Although it sounded like he was sparing his life, it felt worse than death …
