With a smile on his face, the Human Emperor looked at Jin Yuan and the others, speaking amicably, "Grand Elder Jin was merely misled. What does Chen Ming's matter have to do with Grand Elder Jin? I assume it's the same for the rest of the Grand Elders."

"What Chen Ming did alone is a matter for him alone. Grand Elder Jin, Grand Elder Fei, Grand Elder Qi, there is no need to blame yourselves. This matter has nothing to do with you."

The Human Emperor swiftly established the tone regarding Chen Ming's issue, leaving Xiao Mu feeling somewhat disappointed.

What exactly is the Human Emperor doing? Why is he being so forgiving towards Jin Yuan and the others?

Was it deliberate?

"Yes, thank you, Human Emperor!"

Jin Yuan, Fei Xuan, Qi Gu, and the others were overjoyed, yet they couldn't help feeling suspicious. The Human Emperor actually forgave them so easily; could it be that the Human Emperor's injuries are truly severe?

"If there's nothing else, then let's dismiss!" The Human Emperor appeared to be weary, unwilling to speak further, waved his hand to the crowd, intending to leave the Floating Sky Palace.

"Wait a moment!"

Xiao Mu, realizing the situation, quickly stood up and cupped his hands to the Human Emperor, saying, "Reporting to the Human Emperor, this minister has more to say?"

"Among our own people, we must maintain unity and avoid internal strife."

The Human Emperor seemed displeased, glanced at Xiao Mu, then reluctantly said, "What is it? Speak!"

"Yes!" Xiao Mu's heart skipped a beat at the Human Emperor's displeasure, but he steeled himself and said, "Reporting to the Human Emperor, I am here to impeach Lei Zhanghua, Grand Elder Lei!"

"How dare you! Xiao Mu, Grand Elder Lei Zhanghua has worked hard with utmost dedication for the Alliance, and how can you impeach him casually?"

The Human Emperor, upon hearing this, became angry, glaring fiercely at Xiao Mu.

Jin Yuan, Lei Zhanghua, and the others were quite surprised upon hearing the Human Emperor's words. The Human Emperor was actually defending them?

Lei Zhanghua was even more delighted, hurriedly stepping forward and shouting at Xiao Mu, "Xiao Mu, do you dare speak recklessly? I will be irreconcilable with you!"

Xiao Mu glanced at Lei Zhanghua, inwardly sneered, and once again cupped his hands to the Human Emperor, "Reporting to the Human Emperor, I have evidence."

"You had better present your evidence, otherwise, this emperor will certainly charge you with slander!"

The Human Emperor's tone suddenly turned icy, seeming to be angered by Xiao Mu.

Xiao Mu felt uneasy inside, but still forced himself to report, "Reporting to the Human Emperor, I am here to impeach Lei Zhanghua, Grand Elder Lei, during ancient times, for when escorting Yang Yuan to Floating Sky Mountain, he was ambushed by the Heavenly Court and killed Yang Yuan on the way, leaving his body in the Wilderness."

"This minister has found Yang Yuan's corpse bones here. Once examined, we can turn illusion into reality and restore the truth of Grand Elder Lei Zhanghua killing Yang Yuan."

As he spoke, Xiao Mu directly took out Yang Yuan's corpse bones from the Earth Seal Space, placing them on the ground, saying again, "Yang Yuan's bones are here. Simply using True Force to infuse into the bones can restore the truth of Grand Elder Lei Zhanghua killing Yang Yuan."

Zhou Xuanmen's face suddenly showed joy. He had originally been worried for Xiao Mu, fearing he couldn't produce good evidence.

But upon seeing Yang Yuan's bones, his heart relaxed and even became joyful.

This Xiao Xiao really has some skills, actually finding Yang Yuan's bones.

This time, let's see how Lei Zhanghua can escape punishment?

The Human Emperor's complexion, upon seeing Yang Yuan's bones, gradually changed from anger to calm, then turned to face Lei Zhanghua, his tone much kinder than towards Xiao Mu, "Grand Elder Lei, do you have anything to say in your defense?"

"This..."

Lei Zhanghua was obviously unprepared for the Human Emperor's question, feeling flattered, his face showing joy. He stepped forward, intending to speak.

But at this moment, Grand Elder Jin used Divine Sense Communication to signal Lei Zhanghua.

Lei Zhanghua was startled, looking at Grand Elder Jin, filled with confusion.

Grand Elder Jin wanted him to proactively confess? This can't be right. The Human Emperor was defending him; even if he didn't proactively admit guilt, could Xiao Mu really overthrow him?

Jin Yuan, perceiving Lei Zhanghua's thoughts, communicated again, his tone much sterner.

Lei Zhanghua eventually did not dare to defy Jin Yuan's wishes, reluctantly stepping forward, bowing deeply to the Human Emperor, "Reporting to the Human Emperor, this minister is guilty. Yang Yuan was indeed killed by me."

"At that time, the Heavenly Court was pursuing and capturing Yang Yuan. The situation was urgent. And Yang Yuan, being a Divine Array Master, if he fell into the Heavenly Court's hands, the consequences would be unimaginable. Whether it was the Great Array set up by Bai Jing or all the Heavenly Emperor's arrangements in the human world, they would all be disclosed to the Heavenly Court."

"This minister, having no other choice, had to personally kill Yang Yuan and discard the corpse."

"This minister acknowledges the guilt and voluntarily surrenders the Eternal Lamp to atone for it, beseeching the Human Emperor to pardon my crime."

As he spoke, Lei Zhanghua took out an antique glazed palace lamp and set it on the ground.

This antique glazed palace lamp emitted brilliance, with a wick eternally burning, illuminating the ages.

The brilliance of this ancient lamp directly lit up the entire Floating Sky Palace, bathing it in a gentle radiance.

In this brilliance, Xiao Mu's True God Realm suddenly felt exceptionally comfortable, making it easier to condense the Domain Suppression Platform.

This old thing confessed so easily?

Lei Zhanghua's reaction, however, left Xiao Mu disappointed, feeling as if he'd punched air.

The old man's swift confession thwarted his plans against Lei Zhanghua, leaving him unable to deploy his strategies one by one.

"In an urgent situation, necessary choices must be made; Grand Elder Lei cannot be blamed for this. Let this matter be settled."
