"If it is not going to collapse, then go to the Hall of Punishments!"
A voice came. Emperor Rui had walked in. He looked at Lu Li and said, "If this is your fault, I will not side with you!"
Lu Li stood up, cupped his fists and said, "Master, I am wrong. But they are the ones at fault. I believe the Hall of Punishments of the Celestial Emperor Sect is reasonable. I am not afraid!"
"Of course the Hall of Punishments is reasonable!"
Emperor Rui nodded. "If you are so confident, then let's go. The Family Patriarch of the Guan Family has been here since yesterday. He is waiting for you."
Lu Li nodded and left with Emperor Rui. Wang Ningxue followed him. As soon as they were outside, many people checked with psychic power.
After all, the entire Endless Ruins had learned about this. An important person from the Celestial Emperor Sect was enraged and stated that he would investigate thoroughly.
Emperor Rui led the three of them to the Hall of Punishments. Many disciples had come to join in the fun.
Of course, there were many things to cheer for, for example, the Guan Family or Lu Li.
Hu Shimeng and the others were here as well. They looked at Lu Li with concern.
Lu Li nodded to them. Many patriarchs of the Guan Family had come as well, glaring at Lu Li.
Lu Li followed Emperor Rui into the Hall of Punishments calmly. The Hall of Punishments was spacious with 10 warriors standing in it. Three of them were at the Great Emperor Realm. One of them was Emperor Heng, but Lu Li did not recognize the other two.
On the left sat a dignified old man. Clearly, he was also at the Great Emperor Realm. When he saw Lu Li coming in, the undisguised killing intent in his eyes made Lu Li shiver.
"Family Patriarch of the Guan Family!"
Lu Li was more confident now. Apart from Emperor Heng, the other two Great Emperor Realm warriors were also glaring at him coldly. They must be the helpers invited by the Guan Family.
In the middle of them sat an Emperor Semi-Emperor. He must be the Master of the Hall of Punishments. He stood up, cupped his fists, and said with a bitter smile, "Emperor Rui, we have been waiting for you for a long time!"
Emperor Rui cupped his fists to the other Great Emperors and said apologetically, "I am sorry. My disciple has just woken up. I will bring him to the Hall of Punishments at once. You may begin."
After the Rui Emperor finished speaking, he walked to a chair at the side and sat down. Wang Ningxue didn't even enter. This place wasn't a place that ordinary people could casually enter.
Lu Li bowed at once and said, "Greetings, Lords! I am Lu Li!"
The Hall Master of Penalty Hall, Fang Wen, looked at Lu Li seriously and said, "Lu Li, do you know your crime?"
Lu Li cupped his fists and said calmly, "Patriarch, I don't know what crime I have committed."
"How dare you!"
Fang Wen's expression turned stern as he said angrily, "You killed an elder and a disciple of the Guan Clan, and you even killed Guan Qianqiu. Are you going to deny this?"
"I made these!"
Lu Li answered frankly, "A patriarch of the Guan Family and Guan Qianqiu were killed by me!"
"Wow ~"
Many disciples outside were in an uproar. The rumor was so ferocious, but many people didn't believe it. Now that Lu Li had admitted it in public, it naturally caused a sensation.
Wang Ningxue and Hu Shimeng looked at each other. Their hearts were weighed down. Lu Li had admitted it in public. There was no turning back now. It seemed that Lu Li could not escape from this.
"Since you have killed someone, why don't you admit your crime?"
Fang Wen was a bit angry. As the Hall Master of Penalty Hall, Lu Li was already intimidating. When he was angry, he was even more intimidating.
"I have killed someone but I will not admit my crime!"
Lu Li said stubbornly like a stubborn child. He cupped his fists and said, "Patriarch, lords, if someone wants to kill me, should I fight back?
The Guan Family tried to kill me first. Can't I fight back?
Should I, as a disciple of the Heaven Emperor Sect, submit to adversity?
Should I let others kill me? "
"Eh?"
A glint of coldness rose in Guan Family Patriarch's eyes. There was another round of discussion outside. The several emperors looked at each other as well.
"Lu Li, please be responsible for what you have said!" Fang Wen shouted coldly, "When did the Guan Family try to kill you?
Do you have any proof? "
"Proof?"
Lu Li turned to Emperor Rui and said, "Master, have you been to the Ancestral Dragon Realm? There are three dead lords there. Did you see them?"
Emperor Rui didn't communicate with Lu Li at all. He answered with a straight face, "Yes. I set up some runes there. I will know when someone goes in. Also, you crushed the jade talisman I gave you. Therefore, I opened a portal and went there at once. I did find three dead bodies in the Ancestral Dragon Realm. They were warriors from the Sixth Tribulation."
Lu Li cupped his fists to Emperor Rui and said, "I was cultivating in the Ancestral Dragon Realm when I was ambushed by three lords. They said in person that Guan Qianqiu ordered them to kill me.
They also told me where Guan Qianqiu was. I was almost killed by them. How can I not get back at them?
The Hall of Penalty didn't say that I can't retaliate if someone wants to kill me. "
The Hall of Penalty was silent. However, it was noisy outside again. Guan Qianqiu ordered someone to kill Lu Li.
How bold was Guan Qianqiu?
How dare he kill a disciple of the Heaven Emperor Sect? This was the greatest provocation to the Heaven Emperor Sect.
Guan Shanyue, the Family Patriarch of the Guan Family, said, "You said that Guan Qianqiu ordered those three. Do you have any proof?"
"I don't!"
Lu Li answered without hesitation, "When I killed those three, I didn't record it. I was so furious that I didn't think about it.
But I want to ask you, Lord. Would I frame Guan Qianqiu for no reason?
Would I go to the Guan Family for no reason? "
"Who can say for sure?" Guan Shanyue said with a cold smile, "What if you take the opportunity to make trouble?"
"Ha, ha, ha!"
Lu Li laughed and said, "Even if I did, how would I know that there is a secret fort of the Guan Family nearby?
My Master knows. It is the first time I have been there. I don't even know where it is.
Also, why did Guan Qianqiu happen to be in a secret fort nearby?
Wasn't he taken back to the Guan Emperor City? "
Emperor Rui nodded and said, "I can testify to this. I opened the portal and took Lu Li there to cultivate. I don't think Lu Li knows about Mount Voodoo.
I took him to the Ancestral Dragon Realm from Mount Voodoo. Then, I laid down some runes. I can prove that Lu Li cultivated in there for several years and never came out. "
Emperor Rui would not lie. Therefore, one thing was certain — Lu Li didn't know about the secret fort of the Guan Family nearby and he didn't know Guan Qianqiu was in there.
He got this information from Guan Qianqiu after he killed the three assassins.
Guan Shanyue pulled a long face. He was here to make trouble. Now, he seemed to be going to the Heaven Emperor Sect to punish the Guan Family. After a pause, Guan Shanyue said, "Either way, you can't deny the fact that you killed a patriarch of the Guan Family and Guan Qianqiu. Please, Heaven Emperor Sect, give us an explanation.
Also, it is said that Lu Li became an orc. Many people saw him do that. I hope the Heaven Emperor Sect will look into this. "
"Either way!"
