"Nonsense! You're still trying to deny it! We all saw you kill the Queen, and you still won't admit it!!"
"You coward! We used to support you, but you killed the Empress right in front of us, and you still dare to argue!"
"So many eyes have seen you kill the Heavenly Empress, you can't deny it!!"
"Alright, stop arguing, let him continue." Song Xiwei asked Wulai, "I'm going to activate the restoration array now, to recreate the scene of the Empress's murder in front of everyone. Do you have any objections?"
Wu Lai frowned and said, "I didn't kill anyone, so I don't support what you're doing."
Song Xiwei ignored Wu Lai and instead looked at the celestial officials, "Does anyone have any objections?"
"Support restoring the magic circle! Make the murderer pay the price!"
"Restore the magic array!!"
"Heavenly Emperor, what do you think?" Song Xiwei then turned to ask the Heavenly Emperor.
The Heavenly Emperor nodded, "Since the restoration array can be activated, that would be perfect. Since Prince Wulai doesn't acknowledge it, this is the only way to restore the truth."
"Alright, then, the minority shall obey the majority, and Prince Wulai's objection is invalid. We shall activate the restoration array according to everyone's request!" Song Xiwei finished speaking and immediately activated the restoration array.
After the magic circle was activated, everyone witnessed the scene of the Empress's murder once again as bystanders.
In the scene, the Empress is offering wine to Wu Lai, who also raises his wine cup, about to drink with her, when the Empress suddenly collapses.
The video stopped.
Everyone was puzzled, as this differed from the scene they had witnessed of the Empress being murdered by Wu Lai.
In their memory, the diva was brutally murdered by Wu Lai, but in this scene, the diva fell to the ground on her own.
How could there be such a big difference?
“Crown Prince Wulai, it seems you weren’t lying. There’s another reason for the Empress’s death,” Song Xi said slowly.
His gaze swept towards the Heavenly Emperor. "Heavenly Emperor, what do you think?"
The Heavenly Emperor's expression stiffened for a moment, "This matter, this matter..."
"How about we let the Empress herself tell everyone who wanted to kill him and then frame Crown Prince Wulai for it? What do you all think?" Song Xiwei suddenly asked for everyone's opinion.
This time, before the Heavenly Emperor could even speak, the other Heavenly Officials, especially those from the Heavenly Empress's maternal clan, unanimously agreed, "Your Majesty, can you resurrect the Heavenly Empress?"
“She wasn’t actually dead; she just faked it. You’ve all been fooled,” Song Xiwei said.
The Heavenly Emperor shuddered violently.
Upon hearing Song Xiwei say that the Empress had faked her death, all the celestial officials became agitated.
"Impossible. We've confirmed it. The Heavenly Empress's body shows no signs of life, not even her primordial spirit can be gathered. It's impossible for her to fake her death to go to that extent..."
"Have you all forgotten what the Heavenly Emperor's supreme magic weapon is?" Song Xiwei suddenly reminded everyone.
“The Cloud Jade can conceal all traces of an immortal body…” Wu Lai said.
"Well, let me ask the Heavenly Emperor about this. Heavenly Emperor, may we see your Cloud Jade? If you have activated the Cloud Jade in the short term, the Cloud Jade will emit purple light. If you let everyone see whether your Cloud Jade emits purple light, it can prove whether the Empress's faked death was at your behest."
Song Xiwei spoke up in front of all the celestial officials.
This time, all the celestial officials looked at the Heavenly Emperor, and surprisingly, no one spoke up to object, nor did anyone go out to accuse Song Xiwei of disrespecting the Heavenly Emperor.
After seeing the restoration formation, everyone discovered that their memories had been altered, and the Cloud Jade also had another function: to confuse memories and create illusions...
Everything was such a coincidence. If Song Xiwei hadn't shown them the differences within the restoration formation, they wouldn't even have known when their memories had been altered.
