"Don't you think it's a bit too late to realize the power of my Huan family now?"

With something to rely on, Huan Yin immediately became smug again.

He never questioned his treatment as a core member of the family.

From the time he was crushed by Lin Yi and sent out a distress signal until now, only three breaths have passed, and the Heavenly Pillar has already descended. Such efficiency would be considered astonishing by any force!

Huan Yin sneered and shouted, "Weren't you very arrogant just now? Are you going to be arrogant again? Do you think you can touch a single hair on my head?"

"If you hadn't been so arrogant just now, and had acted a little faster, I might be dead by now."

"Unfortunately, you will never have that chance."

Lin Yi gave him a strange look: "You call your parents when you can't beat someone, and you're quite proud of that? I didn't realize you were so childish."

Huan Yin's face darkened.

If he had any other choice, he would never have alerted the family's higher-ups.

This time, he acted on his own initiative, and not only did things not go well, but his family also had to clean up his mess.

Regardless of the final outcome, from the moment he sent out the distress signal, he was destined to lose face in front of the family's higher-ups.

Even if he isn't completely abandoned, he'll have to put in a lot of effort to recover his points later.

Huan Yin gritted his teeth, wishing he could skin Lin Yi alive, and snorted coldly, "You can still be stubborn now, but wait until later and see how you cry!"

Lin Yi grinned: "What? You're planning to openly kill me, the Lord of Tianjun? Does your Huan family have the guts?"

Huan Yin choked again.

As an individual, he could barely cover up his mistake of killing Lin Yi by accident. But if the entire Huan family were to kill Lin Yi, the matter would become much more serious.

This will inevitably provoke public outrage from all sides.

The Huan family is now a target of envy and has made many enemies. All they need is an excuse to retaliate. If they were to offer up a handle against the Huan family, they would not let it go easily.

At this moment, another beam of light suddenly fell on Lin Yi.

However, this pillar of light is somewhat different from ordinary Heavenly Dao pillars, clearly conveying the meaning of imprisonment and trial, with four large characters appearing above it.

"The Xuanwu Joint Trial?"

Lin Yi's eyelids twitched.

Despite his strength, being enveloped in this pillar of light, his entire body was completely suppressed, and every cell was unable to move.

This feeling is clearly that of a criminal being judged!

Huan Yin was overjoyed upon seeing this: "See? Even if I don't kill you directly, my Huan family has a thousand ways to deal with you!"

Lin Yi frowned and looked at Han Zhao beside him: "What do you mean? Instead of interrogating the Huan family, you've started interrogating me?"

At this moment, a beam of light also descended upon Han Zhao, exactly the same as the one that had enveloped him.

As for the other actors, although they had regained their mobility and tried their best to break through the pillar of judgment for Lin Yi, it was all in vain.

Han Zhao finally realized what was happening and angrily shouted, "Despicable! Shameless!"

Huan Yin said with a look of contempt, "What? You don't actually think that only trash like you can judge others, but others can't judge you, do you?"

Lin Yi frowned slightly.

Based on his previous understanding, the Xuanwu Judgment was conducted by the divine will of the Xuanwu God. Regardless of whether it was absolutely fair, its level was certainly high, and it was definitely not something that a family like the Huan family could interfere with.

Could it be that the Huan family can even deceive the divine will of the main god?

Han Zhao noticed his confusion and explained in a deep voice, "Although the Xuanwu Joint Trial and the Xuanwu Judgment differ by only one word, they are completely different."

"The Xuanwu Trial will disturb the divine will of the Xuanwu God, ensuring absolute impartiality."

"The Xuanwu Joint Trial is conducted by the Divine Realm Open District Branch, and it doesn't even reach the Xuanwu God."

Lin Yi instantly understood: "I see."

To put it bluntly, this is the censorship tool that the Huan family can manipulate.

As local tyrants who could control everything, the Huan family could interrogate this matter however they wanted.

Lin Yi frowned and asked, "After this joint trial is over, can the Xuanwu Trial be restarted?"

Han Zhao remained silent for a moment, then said firmly, "The Lord God Xuanwu will not be deceived."

Even so, the slight tremor in his voice clearly indicated a sense of despair in his heart.

When it comes to his faith in the Xuanwu God, Han Zhao is more steadfast than anyone else.

That's why he had long harbored deep resentment towards the Huan family, who had turned the Xuanwu Divine Society into a chaotic mess; otherwise, things wouldn't have come to this point.

Huan Yin chuckled coldly on the other side, "The Lord God Xuanwu will naturally not be deceived by a villain like you. In principle, once an event has been tried by Xuanwu, no further Xuanwu trials will be initiated."

Han Zhao did not refute.

Given the Huan family's immense influence, once the Xuanwu Joint Trial becomes a fait accompli, there is virtually no possibility of overturning the verdict.

Lin Yi finally understood.

Headquarters will not easily overturn the branch's conclusions, no matter where it is.

Lin Yi asked with some curiosity, "What exactly do you want to find out by holding this Xuanwu Joint Trial for me?"

His interactions with the Xuanwu Divine Society were limited to a few times, all of which were normal quota assessments, with absolutely no behind-the-scenes manipulation.

Even in his collaboration with Li Jinwang, he absolutely did not cross any red lines.

Even if the other party wants to forcibly convict him, they must have some basis for it, right?
Huan Yin looked at him like he was an idiot: "You don't still think that my Huan family can't do anything to you, do you?"

"Let me put it bluntly: within the Xuanwu Divine Society, whatever crime my Huan family wants to accuse you of, that's the crime you'll be charged with, and no one can overturn it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a supreme will descended and began to pronounce judgment on the spot.

"Upon investigation, it was found that inspector Han Zhao colluded with outsider Lin Yi to harm the interests of the Xuanwu Divine Society, betrayed his own people, and slandered the high-ranking members of the Divine Society. His crimes are heinous."

"The verdict of this Xuanwu Assembly trial is as follows: Han Zhao is sentenced to five hundred years of imprisonment, stripped of all his powers, and expelled from the Divine Assembly after serving his sentence."

"Lin Yi is sentenced to five hundred years in prison, his baptism privilege is revoked, and all Dharma Aspect quotas obtained from my Xuanwu Divine Society are revoked."

The entire room fell silent.

Following this approach, Han Zhao will inevitably be ruined, and Lin Yi will be ruined as well.

Putting aside everything else, just taking back the Dharma Aspect quota is enough to wipe out all the achievements Lin Yi has painstakingly accumulated over this period of time. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he has been reduced to his original state.

Moreover, he would be imprisoned for five hundred years.

If Lin Yi were to enter during these five hundred years, he would be a lamb to the slaughter, and one can only imagine what his fate would be.

Furthermore, although the verdict did not mention Li Jinwang, it is obvious even to a child that Li Jinwang would also be humiliated and devastated.

Crucially, this turn of events has completely blocked any possibility of them appealing and overturning the verdict. (End of Chapter)
