Chapter 8: Resolutely Oppose Feudal Superstition



No matter how good his Qi cultivation skills were, a trace of anger flashed across his face at this moment. He said, "Evil Taoist, no matter how sharp your words are, you are unacceptable for deceiving the emperor. I advise you not to be so stubborn and submit to the law."

Lu Chen scratched his ear with his pinky finger and squinted at Wei Yong. "What are you yelling about? You're so old, don't you understand that the loudest voice doesn't mean justice? Besides, what kind of place is this? This is where state affairs are discussed. His Majesty is still sitting here, and you're openly roaring here. Do you still have His Majesty in your eyes? Do you still have the law in your eyes?"

hiss!

There was another sound of people gasping for breath all around. No one had expected that Master Lu could be so sharp-tongued and every word he said was so hurtful.

The relationship between the Imperial Censor and the Emperor was not good to begin with, and now Lu Chen added fuel to the fire. Everyone was worried about Wei Yong. This old man would probably have a hard time in the future. Would his grave be dug up and his bones crushed to dust after his death?

However, those who can become the Imperial Censor are all extremely tough.

Wei Yong stared at Lu Chen intently and said, "No matter how eloquent you are today, you won't get away with it. Let me ask you, do you dare to say that you prayed for the rain? Do you dare to say that you possess magical powers? If you lie in front of His Majesty, you are deceiving the emperor and your entire clan will be executed!"

Swish!

Everyone's eyes were once again focused on Lu Chen, and everyone was looking forward to Lu Chen's answer.

Wei Yong was also ready. As long as Lu Chen dared to say that he knew magic, he would immediately let Lu Chen use the magic.

If the flaw is found by then, Lu Chen's entire family will be killed.

So what will Lu Chen do next?

To be honest, everyone present was looking forward to it. Whether it was the display of magical powers or the extermination of all nine generations of his clan, it was all very exciting.

But what no one expected was that in the face of Wei Yong's questioning, Lu Chen did not resist or argue, but instead asked in an even more incredible tone:

"What magic? What nonsense are you talking about? Of course I don't know it! Lord Wei is a well-educated man after all, how can he still believe in such unrealistic things?"

"It's said that a scholar shouldn't talk about strange things. It seems that Lord Wei hasn't read enough books!"

"From the beginning to the end, I never said in person that I knew magic. Don't try to smear my innocence!"

"Your Majesty, not only do I not know any magical arts, but from now on, if anyone tells you that he knows any magical arts, I suggest you kill him first and then interrogate him. I guarantee that no one will be wrongly accused."

"After all, feudal superstitions are the most annoying thing!"
