"How dare you! You dare to speak so disrespectfully to me!" the Heavenly Emperor roared in fury.
"If you hadn't wronged me back then, I wouldn't have treated you this way," Lin Han said nonchalantly, showing no fear of the Heavenly Lord.
At this moment, the Heavenly Emperor also remembered what he had done. He felt a momentary pang of guilt, but quickly put on an attitude of taking it all for granted.
"You have neglected your post, causing widespread suffering in the mortal realm, and you still do not know your crime!" the Heavenly Emperor roared in anger.
Lin Han countered, "Then may I ask, did you know who was on duty at the time?"
The Heavenly Emperor was speechless and fell silent.
Lin Han could tell from his expression that he knew the whole story, but he was just in cahoots with them.
"Just because the person who switched shifts with me was Fairy Tianxia, you wantonly protect her. And you still dare to call yourself 'I'?" Lin Han asked in a loud and authoritative tone.
"Do you really think no one knows what happened back then? Do you really think I have no evidence? If I hand this evidence over to the God of Justice, none of you will escape."
Lin Han walked straight to the side, looking at the livid Heavenly Lord, and felt great.
"Heh, so what? Do you think the God of Justice will believe you based solely on your one-sided story, you sinful immortal?" The Heavenly Lord reviewed the events of that day multiple times and found nothing he had missed. In an instant, he concluded that Lin Han was deceiving him, and his confidence grew stronger.
Lin Han remained calm and asked Xiao Meng to retrieve the footage from that day and play it for Tian Jun to see.
The Heavenly Lord, who had been so confident that he believed Lin Han had no evidence, panicked in an instant.
Lin Han looked at Tian Jun with a half-smile: "So, you still think I have no evidence?"
The Heavenly Emperor fell silent for once, seemingly pondering the pros and cons.
In the end, they decided to seek peace with Lin Han.
After all, if Lin Han were to hand over the evidence to the gods of justice, they would face punishments ten thousand times more painful than Lin Han's.
When Lin Han heard that the Heavenly Emperor was willing to seek peace, he secretly laughed, but he didn't show it on his face and pretended to be dissatisfied.
"Lin Han, we have worked together for tens of thousands of years. What happened back then was my fault. I will exempt you from all punishment and let you return to your immortal status, how about that?" The Heavenly Lord tentatively discussed with Lin Han.
Lin Han was naturally very willing, but she looked quite troubled.
"Then how are you going to explain this to the other fairies?" Lin Han asked doubtfully.
The cunning Heavenly Emperor had already devised a plan, proposing to replace the condemned prisoner with another one to take the blame.
Upon hearing this, Lin Han neither agreed nor disagreed, but simply appeared to be deep in thought.
Seeing this, the Heavenly Emperor assumed she was still dissatisfied, so he reluctantly gave Lin Han a medicine-refining cauldron that he had collected over the years.
Lin Han knew when to stop and let the Heavenly Lord go.
Before leaving, she made a request to the Heavenly Emperor: "When I return to the ranks of immortals, I don't want to hear any bad comments. As for where these comments come from, I think you know."
"Furthermore, I will personally take back what is rightfully mine. As for the consequences, since she was the one who made the mistake, she will naturally have to pay the price. Do you understand?"
The Heavenly Emperor readily agreed to Lin Han's first request, but upon hearing Lin Han's second sentence, he began to hesitate. However, under Lin Han's threat, he gritted his teeth and agreed.
When Lin Han returned to the mortal realm from the Heavenly Court, she opened her eyes and walked out of the cave, where she saw a man walking towards her.
Lin Han didn't recognize him at first, but when the man saw Lin Han, his eyes lit up and he shouted, "Master!"
Lin Han then realized that this person was Mu Yan. She asked Xiao Meng about the time in the lower realm and suddenly realized that more than ten years had passed.
"Oh my god, that scared me to death! When you were talking to the Heavenly Lord, a divine sense almost scanned me," Xiao Meng said to Lin Han after giving him the time, as if she had just escaped a disaster.
Upon hearing this, Lin Han found it unbelievable: "Could the people in the small world possibly sense your presence?"
"That's natural, after all, some small worlds can no longer be viewed with conventional thinking."
"But it was my oversight; I thought the people in this small world weren't that strong."
Xiao Meng began to reflect on herself in her online space.
Looking at Mu Yan, who used to be just a little boy who only reached her shoulder, but has now grown taller than her, Lin Han felt a mix of emotions.
"Master, are you feeling better?" Mu Yan asked, looking at Lin Han, whose eyes were now clear and who could speak.
Lin Han nodded naturally, but at this moment she was surprised to find that there was a faint black aura surrounding Mu Yan.
"Xiao Meng, I haven't asked yet, how much darkness has Mu Yan reached right now?" Lin Han asked, looking at the black mist.
Xiao Meng immediately flipped to the section on Mu Yan's "darkening value," and was shocked to find that Mu Yan's "darkening value" was a staggering 73.
Lin Han was also shocked. She remembered that Mu Yan's initial blackening value was not high. Why did it suddenly increase so much?
Even Xiao Meng was unsure. Back in Heaven, she didn't dare to move at all, so naturally she didn't check her corruption level.
"Master, you won't be leaving again after you finish this seclusion, right?"
"Master, what are you thinking about?"
"master."
...
While Lin Han was talking to Xiao Meng, Mu Yan noticed that Lin Han was lost in thought and kept asking her questions.
Coming to her senses, Lin Han quickly looked at Mu Yan, but this time she dared not let her mind wander.
"Ah, it's nothing, I'm not leaving. How are the sect leader and elders doing now?" Lin Han gave Mu Yan a brief reply, then asked him.
