Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, countless balls of light floating in the air activated the live broadcast function, transmitting the images to the vast starry sky.
"I, Li Chunfeng, have done many wrong things under the instructions of the Emperor of the Old Empire. I now solemnly apologize."
He bowed deeply and reverently.
The scene was captured accurately and immediately caused a sensation on various planets.
"To put it bluntly, Li Chunfeng is also a victim of the empire. Instead of asking him to apologize, it would be better to ask the emperor to apologize."
"The emperor has long since turned to cosmic dust. How can he apologize? I think Li Chunfeng is a man who takes responsibility for his actions."
Most of the audience approved of his behavior, but a few expressed disapproval.
"Can an apology alone heal so many wounds? The carnage caused by the Imperial Seventh Army cannot be quelled by a mere apology."
"If an apology is effective, what's the point of having a law? I propose a public trial for Li Chunfeng."
"Li Chunfeng had already left the empire and made condemnatory remarks. How can he be tried?"
No matter what was discussed online, the scene was silent, with only the light ball making a constant buzzing sound.
After about ten seconds, the Star Lord of Blazing Star sighed deeply, "War is bound to bring death. Actually, it's not General Li's fault. It's the imperial family's fault for being unjust. General Li, please take a seat. Everyone, since we have this opportunity, feel free to ask any questions you have. General Li, is that right?"
Li Chunfeng sat down and looked around. Reporters from all ethnic groups did not dare to look at him and lowered their heads.
"It's up to you."
There had been no reporters asking questions for a long time, and the Star Master was so anxious that he slammed the table three times in a row.
A young man from the Wu tribe immediately raised his hand and asked, "General Li, I heard that when you were young, you lived at the bottom of society and didn't have many ambitions, is that right?"
Without waiting for Li Chunfeng to answer, the Star Lord scolded him, "What kind of rubbish question is that? Who can roam the starry sky when they are young?"
The reporter was innocent and didn't know what to do.
He carefully looked at his watch and saw that this was indeed what was written on it.
Then I heard Li Chunfeng say, "I was young and ignorant, so I did mess around for a while. It was only after I joined the army that I gradually got better."
Another reporter immediately raised his hand and asked, "There must be someone who is helping you, right? Who is that person?"
Li Chunfeng was alert and replied, "Without support, anyone can succeed as long as they are willing to fight bravely."
The reporter asked, "I heard that Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Old Empire once recruited you for training in the special fleet, is that correct?"
Li Chunfeng said, "There are hundreds of thousands of members in the special forces fleet, not just me. If this is a problem, I suggest you interview the other 200,000 or 300,000 people."
Then he asked some more questions, most of which were related to the military.
Overall, these issues are not secrets. As long as you are willing to look up information, you can find it online.
After noticing that Li Chunfeng was becoming slightly impatient, the Star Lord gave him a look, and a reporter immediately asked, "General Li, when you ordered your troops to destroy the Zi Luo Clan, did you ever think you would be put on trial today? Sorry, it seems that today is not the day for trial."
As soon as these words were spoken, not only did the scene become chaotic, but they also caused a huge sensation on the Internet.
There have always been great doubts about the extinction of the Zi Luo clan.
From a politically correct point of view, this was definitely done by the empire.
But a lot of evidence shows that the most likely cause of the demise of the Zi Luo tribe was the star worm.
Precisely because it was too vague, when someone suggested that Li Chunfeng was responsible, it caused a huge sensation.
At the apology meeting, Li Chunfeng couldn't help but stand up, and a huge momentum exploded.
Several Star Devourers on the outside exerted pressure simultaneously to fight against Li Chunfeng.
"What are you talking about?" he scolded the reporter.
The reporter was terrified and replied, "I just heard it, don't worry."
Another reporter quickly added, "Monitoring stations near Ziluo Star indicate that the Seventh Army was indeed present nearby when the Ziluo Clan was annihilated. Li Chunfeng, what's your explanation?"
This reporter is a Star Fusioner. He is not afraid of Li Chunfeng's suppression at all, and even has a kind of carefree attitude of sacrificing his life.
In the audience seats at the back, Chen An seemed to understand something.
"They want to frame me. But why? If they just wanted to get rid of Li Chunfeng, there would be no need to go through so much trouble."
Yaoyao was trembling all over.
"Uncle, it was those ugly star bugs who did it."
She thought of the past and trembled with fear.
"Will you testify?"
"I...I'm willing to do anything as long as I can help my brother."
Just as Chen An picked her up, Li Chunfeng's voice came to his ears: "The Starworm Federation does not allow the Zi Luo Clan to survive. If they are exposed now, Yaoyao will definitely die. Brother Xia, protect her."
After saying this, Li Chunfeng removed the pressure and sat down.
Seeing this, a group of reporters pursued him relentlessly.
"The Zi Luo Clan is just a small race, peace-loving and has never participated in war. How could you have the heart to attack them?"
"Li Chunfeng, was it you who gave the order, or was it the superior behind the scenes? By the way, who is behind the Imperial Seventh Army?"
"It seems to be Her Highness the Princess. Could it be her... Oh my God, how could the princess do such a thing? It's impossible."
…
Li Chunfeng understood the reason behind the reporters' questions and answers to each other.
He turned his head to look at the fat Star Lord and asked, "What on earth do they want to do?"
The Star Lord whispered, "As long as you admit that it was the princess behind the scenes, the higher-ups will give you four star systems as your private territory, countless resources, and federal foreign aid certification. As long as you become a recognized foreign aid from the seven federations, your identity will be completely cleared. From now on, you will no longer be an old minister of the empire, but a pioneer of a new era, the Archon of all races. Countless citizens will worship you as the hero who destroyed the empire. Also, the leader of your Wu clan has promised to make you an honorary minister. If you want a real job, at least a deputy minister."
Li Chunfeng said coldly, "You've invested so much money just to frame the princess?"
The Star Lord said, "This isn't a frame-up, but a restoration of history. Questioning and judging the princess has already begun online, and you can be the initiator. General Li, this is a rare opportunity!"
After a long silence, Li Chunfeng faced the countless balls of light and said calmly, "Everyone in the starry sky knows that the Purple Luo Clan was destroyed by the Starworms, but I know you believe it was the Empire's doing. In that case, why not fulfill your wish? Yes, I ordered the fleet to destroy the Purple Luo Clan. Are you satisfied, my dear friends from all races?"
The reporters at the scene looked at each other in confusion. It seemed to be different from the original plan!
Any normal person would never dare to take the crime of destroying the Zi Luo clan, because it is a 100% capital crime and cannot be pardoned.
The Star Lord was very unhappy and shouted, "General Li, you must think carefully. One wrong step will lead to many wrong steps. There is no turning back for many things."
Boom! Boom!
Li Chunfeng leaned back in his chair, put his legs on the table, and looked relaxed.
"Come on, I, Li Chunfeng, am not afraid of trouble by nature. I can hold any amount of dirty stuff."
