The Sacred City was very clear about how they were going to deal with Mofan.
Since Mofan had walked right into their trap, and the whole world was paying close attention to the incident, they would use the best evidence to prove that Mofan was guilty.
The truth and evidence were right in front of everyone. Mofan was closely related to the Red Devils. Judging from the profits he had made, it was highly likely that Mofan was the main culprit.
The Clergymen of the Holy Judgment Court were very smart.
Some of them knew that it was impossible to prove that Mofan was the main culprit of the Red Devils, no matter how hard they tried. All they had to do was publish the information they had gathered and guide the public's opinion.
For example, if a female student hated the words of a male teacher and used the opportunity of being scolded by the teacher after school to accuse the male teacher of molesting her, the public's opinion would be on the student's side.
Even if there was no evidence to prove that the male teacher had done such a thing, even if it was proven that the male teacher had not done such a thing, the public would still be suspicious and prejudiced against him.
The Sacred City could not find any evidence to convict Mo Fan. All they had to do was to present the information and facts to the public, and the people would naturally think in the direction they wanted them to think!
It was just like how Zu Xiangtian was suspecting Mofan.
How was Mofan so strong? How was he able to become a Forbidden Mage in such a short period of time?
Everyone was learning magic properly, yet Mo Fan was so much faster and stronger than the others. He was also related to the Dark Magic. Wasn't there something wrong with him?
The Sacred City was dictatorial most of the time. They did not have to go through so much trouble to convict someone. They could simply execute the person before anyone realized it.
The Sacred City did not have to be fair to people like Wen Tai, either.
If Mofan had not walked right into the trap in front of everyone, and many authorities demanded a fair trial, they would have sentenced Mofan to death long ago.
Since the public wanted them to give an explanation …
They gave it to them.
As long as the public believed that Mofan was an evil person, they did not have to go through the trial process, nor did they need to find any evidence. They could just follow the public's opinion and execute Mofan!
The laws, conventions, and trials of magic were all made by the Holy City!
The only thing the Sacred City was afraid of now was public opinion.
Their execution of Wen Tai had greatly affected their authority. If they continued to disregard public opinion and executed Mofan, the Sacred City would surely suffer a backlash from the people who opposed the Sacred City's dictatorship. Many magic organizations and countries would denounce the Sacred City, too.
However, the information they presented about the Devil System and the direct connection between Mofan and the Red Fiend was too easy to guide people's judgment.
Just like Zu Xiangtian's opinion of Mofan.
He finally understood why he was no match for Mofan. He also understood why Mofan's strength was so inconceivable. He was the real Big Red Devil!
Once the public opinion of the outside world was guided.
They would then be able to take action against Mofan.
Restricting Mofan's freedom was the best proof. When the time was right, they would go through the trial process and execute Mofan to prevent any future trouble!
In other words, Archangel Remil was not just here to tell Mofan that he had been deprived of his freedom.
He was also announcing that the positive image that Mofan had tried so hard to maintain was now being doubted by many people!
"Do you know what people are saying? No wonder you were able to win the World College Tournament. No wonder your cultivation has improved so much in just a few years … How many people in this world are frustrated and angry because they can't improve any further? The cultivation they have spent their entire lives trying to achieve isn't even comparable to the useless Elements that you have forgotten. It's not fair to them!" Zu Xiangtian said angrily.
As a matter of fact, he thought he was a genius before he fought Mofan. No one could achieve his strength and achievements at such a young age. He was also working in the Sacred City. He was confident that he could become one of the strongest Mages in the world given some time.
However, after meeting Mo Fan, he finally realized that there was someone even more monstrous in this world. Mo Fan's strength was simply unbelievable!
"That's why you're so angry. You keep picking on me. You hired people to slander me and slander me. You also want to trample me to prove that you're the most authoritative person in the world … Don't you think the Sacred City is very similar to how you were back then?" Mofan did not have to be sarcastic when he saw Zu Xiangtian speaking so honestly.
"How can I compare to the Sacred City?" Zu Xiangtian mocked himself.
"You're right, but I've only stumbled into a stronger enemy along the way. I haven't really changed," Mofan cut another slice of pizza and gave it to Zu Xiangtian.
At least Zu Xiangtian was able to speak properly.
Mofan happened to be bored, so he did not mind chatting with him for a while.
As a matter of fact, in Zu Xiangtian's eyes, he was no longer an enemy of Mofan. With his current strength, he did not even care about the Sacred Adjudicator of the Sacred City.
Zu Xiangtian was looking for a higher position in the Sacred City, but he had not even reached the middle level.
Mofan was an anomaly that the Archangels were extremely wary of. He was the demon that the Sacred City had to work together to eliminate. Therefore, Zu Xiangtian did not have to hide his jealousy of Mofan's strength, nor did he have to hide the fact that Mofan was already in a disadvantageous situation.
Even a monster like Mo Fan was being suppressed by the Sacred City. The path that Mo Fan had chosen was the wrong one. Showing off his brilliance for a short period of time was the same as digging his own grave!
"Tell me if there's anything else you want to eat. I can give you a few last dinners. Perhaps I'll be in a good mood when I see you in your prime having to finish a few meals in the Final Judgement," Zu Xiangtian forced a smile.
Zu Xiangtian felt there was no need to be angry with a dead man. He would just treat it as giving food to a prisoner on death row!
Zu Xiangtian would be more than happy to be able to deliver food to his enemies in the future!
"Gulp ~" Mo Fan gulped down the iced cola. He did not seem to be aware that he was about to die.
"I'll collect your corpse myself. I can send you back to your country," Zu Xiangtian said proudly.
"Actually, I don't really care what the public thinks. There are many narrow-minded people like you out there. To put it bluntly, they're just asking for a beating. They'll behave themselves after I beat them up," Mofan stretched after eating his fill.
"Hehe," Zu Xiangtian had no idea where Mofan's optimism came from.
"Please take away the trash. Remember to sort them when you throw them away."
