Wu Shattered Star River

Five days passed in a flash.

On this day, early in the morning, the outside of the Tribunal was already packed with cultivators, layer upon layer, densely packed.

Most of them were here to watch the excitement, and the rest were spies from various large and small forces.

"Sha Sha Sha!"

Before long, several Saint Sovereigns led a group of cultivators over, and the crowd automatically parted a path for them to enter.

These Saint Sovereigns were the ones who had submitted the lawsuits, and today they came to await the verdict.

Before long, the gate of the Tribunal opened, and Leng Wusha and several Saint Sovereigns, as well as the relatives of the deceased, were brought in.

"咻!"

Just then, two streams of light shot over from afar, and many cultivators glanced over, all surprised, because two Heavenly Thunder Clan members had come, one of whom was the Heavenly Thunder Army's commander, Lei Qu.

Lei Qu brought Lei Xu to the entrance of the Tribunal, and then led Lei Xu in with large strides.

The show is about to begin!

The surrounding cultivators were all invigorated. Jiang Han belonged to the Heavenly Thunder Army, and the Heavenly Thunder Army should have a high-level figure come to accept questioning or to argue for Jiang Han.

Many cultivators never expected that the commander of the Heavenly Thunder Army would come directly. This person's combat power was very strong, considered to be at the top of the Saint Sovereign realm, and was an absolute high-level figure within the Heavenly Thunder Clan.

What made many cultivators even more excited was that after Lei Qu and the others entered, the Tribunal's main hall did not activate the formation. Was this a preparation for a public trial?

Indeed!

After waiting for a moment, Liu Xiaohui led the other two Tribunal elders in. They directly took their seats and then began to follow the process, without activating the formation.

Although there was a screen separating the outside of the hall, as long as the formation was not activated, the cultivators outside could sense it and hear the words inside. For the cultivators outside, it was a public trial.

The outside was immediately silent, all quietly listening to the sounds coming from inside, paying attention to the trial process, and waiting for the final outcome.

"Silence!"

Liu Xiaohui sat above without speaking, and an elder next to him said: "According to the procedure, let the plaintiff first talk about the situation!"

Leng Wusha looked at the son of the Guān Qí Sect Master, who stepped out from the crowd and bowed his hands, saying: "Greetings, Hall Master Liu, Greetings, Elder Bian, Greetings, Elder Cheng. I represent all the plaintiffs to talk about the situation."

The son of the Guān Qí Sect Master paused for a moment and said: "The situation is like this. Some time ago, Jiang Han suddenly attacked Heavenly Fire City, wantonly slaughtering within the city, and then slaughtered many strongholds, resource treasures, and cities of the Cold Moon Sect, with countless casualties."

"Because Jiang Han possesses an extremely strange escape technique, the Cold Moon Sect sent out a large number of experts and soldiers but were unable to arrest him, so they asked the Xu Clan, our Guān Qí Sect, Dongyu Mountain, and the Star River Sect for help…"

"Later, Jiang Han deliberately led us to the Barbarian Emperor Mountain Range. In order to arrest him, we mobilized a large number of soldiers and experts. But he deliberately led the Heavenly Barbarian Clan to attack us, resulting in the death of over ten million cultivators. He also slaughtered three of our Saint Sovereigns, including my father."

"Killing them was not enough, he actually threw the bones of my father and the other two Saint Sovereigns into Heavenly Mountain City and openly clamored…"

"We originally only wanted to arrest Jiang Han and hand him over to the Tribunal for sentencing, but we didn't expect him to be so ferocious and tyrannical, wantonly slaughtering fellow disciples and civilians on a large scale. His crimes are too numerous to mention…"

"Jiang Han possesses a perverted concealment technique. We are of low ability and unable to capture him, so we would like to ask the Tribunal to sentence him. Call on the entire Eastern Region's experts to capture this demon and avenge my father, as well as the millions of unjustly dead cultivators…"

The son of the Guān Qí Sect Master spoke eloquently for a long time, with great emotion, and his voice became indignant towards the end, choking up several times, causing many uninformed cultivators outside to empathize.

"I didn't expect Jiang Han to be so fierce and cruel?"

"A demon like this is not enough to appease the public anger if he is not killed. This kind of demon should be cut into a thousand pieces!"

"That's right, the Tribunal should issue an arrest warrant, dispatch experts to hunt him down, and drag Jiang Han here to be publicly dismembered and executed!"

"Slaughtering civilians? This is a beast! He must be cut into a thousand pieces!"

"Kill, kill, kill, Jiang Han must be killed!"

A noisy roar quickly rang out outside, and it was obvious that cultivators from large forces were starting to set the pace, causing many cultivators who were not clear about the specific situation to shout along, creating pressure on the Tribunal.

"Silence!"

Tribunal Elder Bian shouted in a deep voice, and the sound resounded inside and outside the Tribunal, and the cultivators outside all shut up.

The authority of the Tribunal cannot be challenged. If these cultivators dared to be talkative, the Tribunal would dispatch executioners to kill them directly, and their deaths would be in vain.

After Elder Bian shouted, his gaze turned to Lei Qu and asked: "Lei Qu, you are the commander of the Heavenly Thunder Army, and Jiang Han is a general of your Heavenly Thunder Army. What do you want to say?"

Lei Qu walked out, cupped his hands towards Liu Xiaohui and the two elders, and then said: "I only want to say three points. First, is there any evidence to prove that Dongfang Han is Jiang Han? Second, the Xu Clan, the Cold Moon Sect, Dongyu Mountain, and the Guān Qí Sect and Star River Sect have been chasing Dongfang Han for so long. Is it only allowed for them to chase and kill, and not allowed for Dongfang Han to fight back? Is it that they want to chase and kill, and Dongfang Han can only wait to die?"

"Third, according to the situation we have detected, Dongfang Han did not slaughter civilians. The two million cultivators of the Guān Qí Sect were all killed by the Heavenly Barbarian Clan."

"Xu Qiu and the others, in order to kill Jiang Han, let the two million cultivators of the Guān Qí Sect deliberately go to their deaths to hold back the Barbarian Emperor. Can this also be counted on Dongfang Han? Is this kind of behavior advisable? Also, Han Xingyun, the Guān Qí Sect Master, and the others were clearly killed by the Barbarian Emperor. Is it too much to count it on Dongfang Han?"

Lei Qu stood aside and stopped speaking. Elder Bian's gaze turned to a Heavenly Emperor in the Tribunal. That Heavenly Emperor walked out and bowed to Lei Qu, saying: "Lord Lei, according to our investigation and evidence collection, Dongfang Han is Jiang Han. There is no need to question this. We have enough evidence."

Elder Bian waved his hand, and the Heavenly Emperor retreated. Lei Qu did not argue. Since the Tribunal had said so, there was no point in arguing further.

Elder Bian's gaze turned to Leng Wusha and the others, and said: "Regarding the second and third points raised by Lei Qu, do the plaintiffs have anything to say!"

Leng Wusha stood out. He looked at Lei Qu and said: "Lei Qu, my Cold Moon Sect has no grievances or enmity with Jiang Han. He ran to Heavenly Fire Mountain to wantonly slaughter, is this not true?"

"He slaughtered the disciples of my Cold Moon Sect and also shouted for us to divorce all the women of the Xu Clan, otherwise he would destroy our sect. Is this not true?"

"If he was not so arrogant, if he did not wantonly slaughter, would we have been full enough to mobilize so many experts and soldiers to hunt him down?"

A Saint Sovereign from Dongyu Mountain walked out and said: "Lei Qu, Jiang Han openly shouted in Heavenly Mountain City that these three Saint Sovereigns were killed by him. Hundreds of thousands of cultivators in Heavenly Mountain City heard it. This cannot be faked, right?"

Lei Qu snorted coldly and said: "Everyone knows the inside story of this matter. Jiang Han is wrong, but is the Xu Clan not wrong?"

"You all in the Tribunal should know many things clearly. There is no point in saying more. I only want to say one sentence—if Jiang Han is convicted like this, my Heavenly Thunder Clan will not accept it!"

"Humph!"

Liu Xiaohui spoke for the first time. He snorted coldly and said: "Speak if you have something to say, reason if you have reason, and provide evidence if you have evidence. Don't be sarcastic. How the Tribunal wants to judge is our business. Whether your Heavenly Thunder Clan accepts it or not… is not important!"

"Thump!"

Lei Xu behind Lei Qu felt a thump in his heart. Listening to Liu Xiaohui's tone, it seemed that Jiang Han was doomed today.
