"Who the hell would go against themselves? Unless there's an unavoidable situation, who would willingly destroy their own interface, their own home? Who the hell would willingly become homeless, a pathetic wretch reduced to ashes in a nuclear catastrophe?"
“Besides Wang Yao and Zhang Wuji, who come from the Six Realms and are unaffected by the nuclear calamity, who else whose hometown isn’t in the Ocean Realm? And as Wang Yao’s subordinate in the Integration Realm, Zhang Wuji’s responsibility should be lighter than Wang Yao’s!”
“If you can’t determine the truth of a matter, just look at who really benefits from it. Who would benefit from the destruction of the Ocean Realm? Only our Six Realms. So only Wang Yao and Zhang Wuji, whose hometown is in the Six Realms, are the winners. They are the most suspicious!” Feng Huan said confidently.
"That's not right. Because of the nuclear calamity, Wang Yao's cultivation level dropped from Mahayana to Nascent Soul. How could he possibly be a winner?" Zhao Cai shook his head and said disdainfully.
“It is the way of Heaven to punish those who do bad things, but that does not absolve them of suspicion. Wang Yao, tell me yourself, during the nuclear catastrophe, did you have any chance to prevent your cultivation level from falling?” Feng Huan stared intently at Wang Yao with gleaming eyes.
“That’s right. If I had handled it like Zhang Wuji did, I probably wouldn’t have fallen in cultivation level.” Wang Yao nodded upon hearing this. It was a fact that he couldn’t deny.
"Feng Huan, what are you doing here? What nonsense are you spouting? According to you, wouldn't all the immortals in the entire Six Realms be suspects?" Wang Zhaojun asked angrily.
“That makes sense, but we’re only sure that Wang Yao and Zhang Wuji were at the scene of the nuclear catastrophe. If there are other immortals from the Six Realms there as well, they’re also implicated. After all, without concrete evidence, there’s no doubt that the Six Realms are the prime suspects,” Feng Huan said.
"Are you from the Six Realms or the Foreign Realms? Who the hell are you taking sides with? The more I look at you, the angrier I get!" Old Ruan rolled his eyes and angrily confronted Feng Huan.
“Of course I am an immortal of the Six Realms, and my heart is naturally aligned with the Six Realms. But the facts are clear and undeniable. You can’t even refute me, so do you think you can refute those foreign gods from the Western Realm?” Feng Huan asked emphatically.
Upon hearing this, all the immortals present realized that what the young man said made sense, and they couldn't help but ponder it.
“Feng Huan, you’ve got the target wrong. The foreign powers are accusing Wang Yao of being the mastermind behind the nuclear bomb attack. The burden of proof should be on the foreign powers, not on us. That doesn’t make sense,” Wei Zheng said, shaking his head.
"So, whether Wang Yao is the culprit still needs to be determined through trial. You instigated the immortals to create public opinion and caused turmoil in the Heavenly Court, which is wrong from the start. Your director dismissing you is perfectly justified," Feng Huan replied immediately.
"This..." The immortals looked at each other in bewilderment. How come the case that Wei Zheng had just described as a true miscarriage of justice was now completely flawless in Feng Huan's eyes? Could it be that he was right, and that Wei Zheng's judgment was influenced by his emotions?
"Well... let's wait until the verdict is announced before we talk about it?" The Queen Mother of the West looked at Ao Guang thoughtfully and murmured.
"What are you waiting for? You are the Queen Mother of the West, why should I wait to save my son's life? Don't listen to this kid's nonsense. I believe my son would never do anything bad. The Zhenxie Heavenly Prison is not a good place, we can't let him stay there..." Ao Guang immediately objected and shouted.
"Hmph! I am an immortal with principles, how could I possibly break the law for your sake?" The Queen Mother of the West's expression changed, and she stood up to leave.
"Queen Mother of the West, please wait!" Wei Zheng's expression changed, but just as he was about to continue speaking, the space where the immortals were located suddenly shook almost imperceptibly.
"What happened?" Old Ji frowned and suddenly stood up. "How could our Zhenxie Heavenly Prison, which is as solid as a rock, suddenly shake?"
The Thirteen Sages of the Bamboo Grove also exclaimed in surprise.
"I will immediately seal off the Heavenly Prison. Zhao Cai, Jin Bao, Li Xian, Mr. Shan, Lao Ruan... you all quickly check the situation in each cell to prevent the celestial prisoners from escaping. I will stay here to oversee the Heavenly Prison's magic array and supervise the celestial prisoner Wang Yao," said Old Ji.
"Yes!" The Thirteen Sages of the Bamboo Grove answered in unison and immediately set to work.
"Everyone, strange phenomena have appeared in the Heavenly Prison. Please leave immediately." Old Ruan waved his hand, tearing open the space of the bamboo garden, and bowed to the Queen Mother of the West and other immortals.
"Do you need my help?" the Queen Mother of the West asked, frowning.
"What a joke! There are hundreds of Great Vehicle prison chiefs in the Zhenxie Heavenly Prison. How could a mere sway cause trouble for the Queen Mother of the West? You can leave with peace of mind. I don't expect anything serious to happen." Old Ji laughed and politely declined the Queen Mother of the West's offer.
"Where is my son? What should I do about my son?" Ao Guang cried out anxiously.
"Didn't this monk relay a message from His Majesty the Heavenly Emperor? Your son will be fine, so let him stay in our Heavenly Prison in peace. And please, Queen Mother of the West, take the Dragon King of the East Sea away from the Heavenly Prison." Old Ji pointed at Hui Shuo, gave Ao Guang some vague instructions, and then asked Queen Mother of the West to take the old dragon away.
"Hurry up! You old dragon, if something really happens in the Evil Suppressing Prison, you'll be in deep trouble!" Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother of the West reached out and pulled Ao Guang up, and in the blink of an eye, they were at the entrance of the spatial cave.
She knew that the Zhenxie Heavenly Prison was of great importance, as it held many powerful gods, demons, monsters, and monsters who had once wreaked havoc on the six realms. If something happened, the consequences would be extremely serious. Therefore, she dared not waste any more time and affect the prison warden's work, and quickly pulled Ao Guang away.
"Hey, sir, wait a minute, wait a minute, my son... my son... ah?" Ao Guang was pulled along by the Queen Mother of the West, his voice rapidly fading, as he watched as he left the bamboo garden space through the spatial opening.
Although Hui Shuo and Lü Bu were still somewhat hesitant, they left with Li Shishi and Feng Huan after being persuaded by Diao Chan, Wang Zhaojun, and others, leaving only Wei Zheng behind.
