Cheng Shi's idea was very simple.
[Iron Law of Order] If you want to make a big fuss, then directly involve [Justice (Order)] and question the truth about the split of [Order]'s desire sea in the past. If [Justice (Order)] conceals it, it means that there are loopholes in the order. Cheng Shi will then have the leverage to negotiate with [Justice (Order)].
If He doesn't conceal the matter and directly clarifies it, "setting things right," then that would be exactly what Cheng Shi wanted. Once the throne of [Order] is empty, he can openly and legitimately seek that throne.
However, if everything can be kept under control within a small scope, then Cheng Shi will have more room to maneuver in order to win the two thrones of [Order] and [Chaos].
As long as the chaos is quietly dealt with, there will be some consideration for maintaining order in the face of justice (order), and more initiative will be gained.
Therefore, no matter what the Iron Law of Order chooses, a vast net has already been laid out before Him.
He was like prey about to be caught in a net, with nowhere to struggle.
Cheng Shi had already guessed that the [Iron Law of Order] would not plunge the world into chaos, so when the other party chose to "proven privately" for the sake of world order, Cheng Shi summoned the Dragon King.
His memory is filled with evidence; any being capable of rummaging through memories can compile these memories and list them as evidence of the crimes committed under the Iron Laws of Order.
Of course, there are witnesses, but neither the [Void] servant Kotarot nor the [Deception] number one Zhen Xin, who knows the inside story, will likely believe them.
Their identities are too sensitive, and their testimony to Cheng Shi seems more like a "collusion."
Only those who are unaware of the inside story and are still considered believers have a sliver of credibility.
With so many believers in [Memory], why does it have to be the Dragon King who has merged with [Deception]...? Simply put, Cheng Shi doesn't want to share his memories with irrelevant people.
As for the "Iron Laws of Order," whether you believe it or not, how will you know if you don't try?
And so Li Jingming was summoned in a rather haphazard way.
When the Dragon King appeared in the void, he immediately realized that he had been caught up in an undeserved disaster.
Imagine if anyone were summoned by a god and saw the Weaver of Fate, who wanted to change the blood of the universe and kick the gods off their thrones, locked in an iron cage in front of them... what would they think?
The plan exposed? The mastermind caught? Convicted on the spot? What's next?
In particular, the Iron Law of Order is the god who understands judgment the most among all gods. He deliberately used the power of Order to suppress the voices of the suspects in the cage, making it impossible for them to defend themselves, and restricted their movements, leaving the witnesses with only their backs.
With the surrounding lightning power surging violently, the atmosphere was no less than that of an execution ground than a trial.
After this smooth "combo," anyone in the know would probably have to confess their ancestors for eighteen generations to prove their innocence.
The pressure instantly hit the Dragon King, and his heart clenched.
Li Jingming had almost never been judged by the will of [Order] in trials, let alone faced such an angry [Iron Law of Order] the first time. Fortunately, even though he did not understand the methods of [Order], he knew about the Fate Weaver and knew that Cheng Shi was a person who would not yield, so it was impossible for him to confess his guilt.
Applying this logic to the scene, he understood the situation.
The witness's expression shifted from shock to calm, and the fluttering Book of Holy Light spoke, its voice humming:
"Believers of [Memory], are you willing to point out the sins of the sinner in the cage?"
Although the two people in the cage could neither speak nor move, they could still hear.
Upon hearing that the "Iron Laws of Order," which so highly value order, were being used to induce confessions in this way, Li Wufang's heart leaped into his throat.
He didn't doubt the strength of the [Memory] Chosen One, but it depended on who it was judging. The one judging them was a god. Could this friend, who had been specially called up by the boss, survive this ordeal?
Li Wufang was extremely nervous, while Cheng Shi looked at the [Iron Laws of Order] with a mocking gaze.
He trusted the clown as much as he trusted himself, so he wasn't worried at all that the Dragon King would be afraid of betraying him.
However, reality was more...interesting than expected.
Li Jingming nodded without hesitation:
"I do."
"!!!"
"???"
Li Wufang was stunned. He strained to look at his boss beside him, hoping he had misheard.
Cheng Shi was taken aback, then his face turned ashen. He had already guessed what the Dragon King was going to say.
Having observed the reactions of the three mortals before him, [Iron Law of Order] can now conclude that this witness will undoubtedly aid the [Deceitful] believer's scheme.
They were in cahoots.
Sure enough, Li Jingming immediately said:
"I can attest that when fortune tellers trade with others, they use coercion, inducement, forced buying and selling, exorbitant prices, and default on debts, which seriously affect market fairness and harm the interests of others."
I implore the great Order to thoroughly investigate everything, convict them of market disruption, and compensate the traders for their losses.
I will provide all verifiable recollections and cooperate fully with your investigation and trial.
"......"
"......"
"......"
Even the three Fear factions outside the Void couldn't stand it anymore, let alone the "Iron Laws of Order".
[Time] There was no extra time; He quietly withdrew, as if He had never been there.
[Silence] Very satisfied, seeing that his own will had spread here, he silently left.
[Death] was not at ease with His employee, after all, this troublesome employee was related to the life of His believers, so He remained in the void to continue to protect this judgment whose outcome was already predetermined.
The raging power of [Order] in the void suddenly paused and gradually dissipated. Cheng Shi, freed from his restraints, turned around, looked at the silent Li Jingming, and gave him a big thumbs up.
It doesn't matter which finger you use to make the gesture, it's still a thumbs up.
The Dragon King glanced at Cheng Shi in the cage, ignored him, and then looked at Li Wufang next to Cheng Shi, nodding slightly as a greeting.
All of this was observed by the Iron Law of Order. He ignored the three people's little tricks and instead followed the rigid trial procedure, requiring the witnesses to provide the corresponding evidence.
But before that, He asked a question:
"Believers in [Memory], do you know who I am?"
"?"
This is a very strange question. Who would not recognize His identity when they saw the codex enveloped in holy light?
Furthermore, if a deity asks you to your face who you are, and you ask about your identity... surely you don't need a believer with a "memory" to help the deity remember, right?
Li Jingming's gaze sharpened slightly, and a glance at Cheng Shi's amused smile instantly made him realize something. He also guessed the "trap" that the [Iron Law of Order] had set in mind when it asked this question. After a moment's thought, he solemnly replied:
"I don't know."
