"How can this be proven?"
The raging breath of [Order] surged once more, this time seemingly intent on imprisoning Li Jingming as well.
However, having already experienced this once, the Dragon King remained calm and explained slowly:
"By God above, allow me to explain."
That's all I know about the charges against you before the trial, but I think that a single charge of disrupting the market might not require your personal presence for the trial, so I know nothing about the proceedings in court.
But you personally asked me to prove it, and after thinking it over, the only thing I can prove is by searching through certain people...
As he spoke, he glanced helplessly at Cheng Shi, who was all smiles, "...the memories, so I think you summoned me to be a memory operator, not a direct witness."
Without access to the so-called evidence, I cannot answer or provide any proof.
This concerns my devotion to memory, and also my respect for order.
[Iron Law of Order] snorted again: "Since you don't know my identity, why do you keep mentioning [Order] in your words?"
Li Jingming raised an eyebrow, looked up, stared directly at the legal code, and solemnly said:
"Because my understanding of 'order' would not allow me to ask that question!"
pretty!
As expected of Li Jingming, who never suffers a loss no matter who he's in the hands of!
If it weren't for the fear of collusion, Cheng Shi would have even applauded the Dragon King. His words were perfect, directly sealing off any attempts to induce or question him using the "Iron Law of Order."
The Holy Light Codex fell silent, and after a long while, it hummed:
"Let's begin, digging through the past, displaying memories."
I know you have also come close to fraud, but here, any deception will make you equal to the perpetrators, and you will share the punishment.
Li Jingming bowed in response:
"By God above, I need to clarify one point."
All my methods of approaching fraud are to better remember that my path has never changed.
While this statement is not wrong, it sounds like a sarcastic remark to those in the know.
Cheng Shi almost couldn't help but laugh, thinking to himself that the Dragon King had finally gone astray. Among the three people and one god present, whose path had changed?
That's really hard to guess.
He suppressed a laugh, stretched out his hands towards the Dragon King, and looked at the approaching "witness," saying in a strange tone:
"Don't look at what you shouldn't see, or I might disrupt the market again."
Li Jingming shook his head and chuckled, a ball of azure [Memory] power rising in his hand as he looked Cheng Shi up and down:
"I think I've already etched the most precious memory into my heart, as for the rest..."
Even memories have a past that we can't recall, so relax.
Cheng Shi pursed his lips, about to say that he knew what was good for him, but the next second, the Dragon King chuckled:
“I have prepared compensation.”
Markets may be disrupted, but memories must be kept; opportunities must not be missed.
Also, please let me know in advance next time you need my help, otherwise there will be extra charges for emergency situations.
As he spoke, amidst Cheng Shi's astonished expression, the power of [Memory] opened a door to the past for Li Jingming, and the journey of memory traveler immediately began.
Li Jingming did guess that [Order]'s identity had been replaced, but he felt that [Fraud] should be the one replacing [Order]. He just didn't understand why [Fraud], who was impersonating [Order], was in court with Cheng Shi.
When he saw the truth about this matter in Cheng Shi's memory, Li Jingming's pupils shrank, and he was completely stunned.
So that's how it is!
Order is actually chaos!
What kind of abstract thinking would it take to come up with such a replacement plan?
No wonder the Grand Tribunal is declining, no wonder even Mo Li abandoned his oath and went to the War. It turns out that everything has a traceable origin. Order has long since disappeared, and its core has become chaos.
What a chaotic mess of inverted faith!
When he continued to see that it was all a fraud behind the scenes, Li Jingming felt relieved.
That's right, such an absurd performance deserves an even more absurd script.
It turns out that [Deception] orchestrated everything to allow [Chaos] to usurp the position of [Order], and then [Deception] turned around and took the throne of [Chaos] into its arms. So what was the purpose of all this?
Is it just to obtain a divine throne and gain an extra vote in the convention meetings?
It doesn't seem that simple.
Li Jingming's perspective differs from that of a standard believer in "deception." His primary logic is always "memory." When stripping away the influence of "deception" and recording the truth from the perspective of an absolute bystander, a bold idea suddenly arises in Li Jingming's mind.
[Deception] deceives the senses, [Chaos] confuses perception. Either of these two can distort the perception of all life in the universe. So when the two gods merge into one... with the power of [Deception] superimposed on the power of [Chaos], wouldn't they be able to keep the world in the dark at will?
What secrets did He conceal from the world using this power?
Having witnessed the relevant memories, the Dragon King did not delve deeper, but instead retreated back into the void with those memories.
At this moment, he already knew Cheng Shi's complete plan. This Fate Weaver was never idle. He had just told the clowns that he wanted to change the blood of the universe, and now he was already coveting their divine throne.
He must be manipulating the "Iron Laws of Order"!
And it seems that the successor he favors is the one standing right in front of him?
Li Jingming remained calm and gave Cheng Shi a meaningful look. Cheng Shi also smiled and nodded slightly, the meaning of which was clear: it's time for you to make your move.
Li Jingming understood, and transformed the memories he had memorized into bubbles, placing them in front of him before pushing them toward the silent Holy Light Codex.
