Su Guang shouted angrily, "The Shence Palace has no right to judge my Chiming clan!"
Su Jinyan said coldly, "That's right, the Shence Mansion has no right to judge the Chiming clan."
"I have come here on the orders of Xueyi, the judge of the Ministry of Justice of the Ten Kings, to arrest the criminal Yunyou."
"The Ten Kings' Offices hold candlelight to keep watch at night, punishing criminals and exonerating the wicked and unjust."
"If any of you Dragon Masters insist on interfering with my performance of official duties, you will be treated as accomplices and brought back to the Ten Kings Court for trial!"
Upon hearing this, the Vidyadharas' chests heaved violently, and they all glared angrily at Su Jinyan.
Yanqing is still inexperienced, so they can bully him at will.
However, Su Jinyan, a mere outsider, rose rapidly in less than a year, from an unknown diviner to the Grand Diviner of the Imperial Divination Bureau.
No one would believe that he has no connections within the Immortal Boat Alliance.
Moreover, Su Jinyan's reputation is well-known to all.
The fact that he could defeat the Annihilation King Nanuk alone surpasses everyone in the Immortal Boat Alliance; you can't argue with that.
After saying that, Su Jinyan grabbed Yun You's wrist and forcefully pulled her back from Su Guanglongshi's side.
Master Su Guanglong dared not speak out against his anger.
At this moment, Hanabi stepped forward, glaring at Su Jinyan with no fear in her eyes.
“Su Taibu, it is true that Yun You, a member of the Chiming clan, has made a mistake.”
"But you are not a judge of the Ten Kings' Court, so you have no right to arrest her, do you?"
Su Jinyan squinted, looking the fireworks up and down.
"Even the Dragon Master hasn't spoken, so what right do you have to ask me questions?"
Fireworks coldly replied, "Because I am Lord Suguang's confidant."
"I have the right to ask this question on his behalf."
Su Guanglong glared at Hua Huo and hurriedly distanced himself from the situation.
"Stop talking nonsense! I've never had a confidant like you!"
Su Jinyan nodded and said, "Very good. Listen carefully, I will say it one last time."
"I have been ordered by Judge Xueyi of the Ministry of Justice of the Ten Kings to arrest the criminal Yun You."
"Anyone who insists on interfering with my performance of official duties will be considered guilty of the same crime."
"Yanqing—"
Yanqing stepped forward: "Teacher, Yanqing is here."
Su Jinyan sneered, "Take down this Minglong Master Su Guang, who is interfering with official business, and his confidants."
"If they resist, they need not be severely punished, but killed on the spot."
"I'll take care of things for you, so go ahead and do whatever you want. I'll take full responsibility for the consequences!"
Tracing Light Dragon Master: "?"
Yanqing replied excitedly, "Yes!"
Master Su Guang panicked: "Lord Su."
"This Vidyadhara is a complete stranger to me; she is slandering me!"
Hanabi gritted her teeth and said, "Lord Suguang, now that things have come to this, you don't still want to distance yourself from it, do you?"
"We, the people of the Vidyadhara clan, would rather die standing than live kneeling."
"As long as you give the order, our Ming Clan will fight those Immortal Ship people to the death!"
The dragon masters' expressions changed drastically. They hurriedly tried to calm the Chiming clan members and reprimanded the Suguang dragon master.
"Su Guang, what are you up to, you old geezer?"
"Keep an eye on your trusted confidants!"
"We, the Dragon Masters, have always taken it upon ourselves to continue the dragon lineage. Why would we risk our lives against the Immortal Ship people?"
Su Guanglongshi's face flushed red, and he had completely torn off all pretense of civility.
"You old geezers, shut your mouths!"
“Su Jinyan, the law does not apply to the Dragon Master. You may provoke me, but I advise you to think twice before acting.”
"Since the establishment of the Immortal Boat Alliance, there has never been a precedent of a Dragon Master being tried by a foreign race."
"If you insist on breaking the rules of the Vidyadhara Clan, you will be making an enemy of all Vidyadharas, and of all Dragon Lords and Dragon Masters!"
Su Jinyan sneered and waved his hand, saying, "Take him away!"
Yanqing gave a wink to the elite Yunqi, and several of them stepped forward to put shackles on Suguang Longshi, Yunyou, and Huahuo.
The other dragon masters of the Vidyadhara clan trembled, feeling a sense of shared sorrow.
Since Su Jinyan dared to break the precedent and put Su Guanglong Master in shackles to judge him, will they be next?
They must find a way to get Su Guanglongshi out before his trial as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.
Su Jinyan's lips curled into a cold smile: "Three system hours later, I will hold a public trial for the sinner Yun You in the Netherworld."
"I hope all the Dragon Masters will arrive on time."
"It would be good to witness firsthand the fate of those who caused the downfall of the Immortal Ship."
After saying that, Su Jinyan waved his hand and led the mighty Cloud Cavalry elite away from Lin Yuan Realm.
......
Not long after, the remains of Bai Lu Long Zun were collected by the Vidyadharas and placed in a crystal coffin for the Vidyadhara clan to pay their respects and remember.
Dragon Master Council.
"Gentlemen, we must abandon our prejudices."
"We must unite and protest against the alliance."
“Su Jinyan broke the rules of the Chiming Clan that had been in place for thousands of years.”
"He will be despised and ostracized by the Vidyadharas."
"Let's ask the Dragon Masters and Dragon Lords of other Immortal Ships for help. As fellow members of the Vidyadhara Clan, they won't abandon us."
“But if the White Dew Dragon Lord is assassinated in full view of everyone, we will also be punished by the other Dragon Lords if this gets out.”
"A country cannot be without a ruler for a day, and a family cannot be without a head of household for a day."
"We must persuade Dan Heng to regain his position as Dragon Lord as soon as possible. As long as he inherits the title of Lord Yinyue, the other Dragon Lords and Dragon Masters will be powerless against us."
Under the pressure of reincarnation and rebirth, the Vidyadharas displayed unprecedented efficiency in their actions.
They could protest to the Immortal Ship Alliance, plead their case to the Dragon Master Council of other Immortal Ships, or announce the establishment of a new Dragon Lord.
Soon, the news spread among the Vidyadharas.
Effective immediately, Danheng is the new Dragon Lord of the Vidyadhara Clan, with the title of Lord Drinking Moon.
......
Upon learning of the assassination attempt on Bai Lu, the Dragon Lord of the Chiming Clan, General Jing Yuan of the Shence Prefecture was enraged. He dispatched the entire Cloud Cavalry to search for the assassin on the Luofu Immortal Ship.
Soon, several messages spread throughout the streets and alleys of Xianzhou Luofu.
First, the Dragon Lord Bailu of the Vidyadhara Clan was assassinated.
Secondly, Huanlong escaped from prison with the help of Yunyou, a criminal from the Chiming clan, and was subsequently suppressed again by Su Jinyan.
Thirdly, at noon, the Ten Kings Court will hold a public trial for Yun You, a criminal of the Vidyadhara clan, in the Netherworld. The trial will be broadcast live online, and some members of the public will be invited to attend.
The third piece of news is what the people of Xianzhou are most concerned about.
The Ten Kings have always been seen as mysterious and unpredictable, a presence that inspires deep fear.
There's a saying: "Better to lose gold and jade than to enter a dark prison; better to suffer misfortune than to see the judge."
This shows that the image of the judge in people's minds is extremely terrifying.
To witness firsthand the interrogation of prisoners by the judges of the Ten Kings' Court is an extremely rare sight.
......
Netherworld.
As the saying goes, family ugliness cannot be made public.
Especially given such a scandal, Jing Yuan, Xue Yi, and others tended to keep it a secret and proceed with the trial of Yun You, a criminal from the Chiming clan, according to normal procedures.
However, Su Jinyan overruled all objections and forcefully changed the trial to a public trial.
The matter involves the Ming Clan of the Immortal Boat Alliance; it is of great importance and cannot be neglected.
If a private trial is chosen, it is easy for the Vidyadharas of Luofu to spread rumors and cause trouble, which could lead to misunderstandings among the Vidyadharas of other immortal ships.
That's why Su Jinyan chose a fair and open public trial, so that even if the Dragon Masters wanted to slander her, they wouldn't be able to find a point of attack.
Before entering the Netherworld, a massive lintel greets visitors, flanked by stone lions with solemn expressions, as if guarding the dignified and majestic Netherworld.
