Chapter 134 - Your Crime! (2/2)
Disgust.
Hatred!
Their expressions flickered with various emotions. However, none of them were positive. As True Essence Cultivators, how could they not know who the Ancient Emperor of Presba was? They memorized all recognizable forces in Presba. You never know when you'll need to engage with them or become enemies with them. Understanding who's who is important in the cultivation world.
For them, they wouldn't throw out this accusation without irrefutable proof, nor would they publicize this fact amongst experts without even further proof. Not to mention, the first reaction they had was rather violent, backing their belief in this so-called crime.
Almost instinctively, the White Crane Sect members wielded their blades, flashing with traces of sword law infused true-essence. Their prideful eyes turned fiercely sharp. However, none of them took action, obviously awaiting Yan Zaizen's reaction or response.
Unfortunately for them, Yan Zaizen only tugged at his lips and furrowed his brows in contemplation. It was a rather indeterminate expression. ”What proof do you have?” Yan Zaizen wasn't the type of person to shout 'I'm innocent, I'm innocent!' He didn't have anything to prove, nor did he feel the need to deal with such troubles. If he went at their pace, it's likely he could dig a hole so deep he didn't know the truth anymore.
Therefore, he rather advance the narrative at his own pace.
Dong Lin didn't hesitate, withdrawing a translucent orb from his spatial ring. After an infusion of soul energy, a scene projected itself for all those to see. It was a point-of-view perspective. From his guess, it was likely Princess Qin's. He knew of this orb - a Soul Recollection Orb. As the soul flame contained in-depth memory and instincts of the person, this Soul Recollection Orb could vividly copy specific memories within and display them.
Typically, they're used to pass on battle records from certain perspectives or cultivation lessons. The juniors of the clan could view them for theoretical battle experience. It was mainly due to the fact that hundreds of exchanges could happen in seconds at the top-level. It'll be difficult for juniors to see these battle live, so they would slow it down using this item.
Soon, 'Yan Zaizen' appeared with his vibrant amber-gold eyes and handsome appearance. Violently, he struck Princess Qin, restricted her body with qi-essence, and proceeded to violently take her with a malicious smile. His voice, body type, and even vibrant eyes were the same as his. The only difference was that his expression during the actual crime was violent and evil that seemed to take pleasure in Princess Qin's pain.
Princess Qin yelled constantly for mercy, begging to stop, and even asking for reasons and justifications. However, 'Yan Zaizen' only laughed maliciously in her face, only doing so harder, or striking her whenever she seemed to annoy him or weren't loud enough with her screams. This lasted for a few minutes. Then 'Yan Zaizen' departed after reaching a personal climax.
Many in the surroundings felt odd and intense emotions rise up in their hearts watching this scene, and some looked towards Yan Zaizen with extreme disgust. A Soul Recollection Orb couldn't be faked unless one possessed a profound soul cultivation. It's unlikely that Princess Qin, someone who was just mercilessly taken, had a soul cultivation base that could do so.
Even Yan Zaizen himself would have a difficulty doing so.
”This is YOUR CRIME!” Dong Lin shouted.
However, Yan Zaizen furrowed his brows in thought. Witnessing this violent scene, the White Crane Sect members were completely holding back their emotions and desires due to Guàn Cui's gesturing. Despite this, her eyes were also filled with intense anger. The White Crane Sect was a female-only sect and many of their cultivators were exceptionally beautiful and wanted by many. They had to constantly fight against those who take action against their girls.
It became custom that they would destroy any force behind the person who did so and tortured the person's soul for one hundred years before death. Only then did people start thinking nine times before taking action. As women in a world where a murder was legitimate if you were stronger, how could it be easy? The same could be said for men, who must protect their women!
”Well, one indisputable fact determines the person in that image wasn't me…” Yan Zaizen said slowly.
”?” Many of them were shocked, wondering how he'll attempt to clear himself of this crime, but a vast majority who witnessed this scene had already deemed him guilty.
Spreading out fingers to indicate the number of minutes that passed during the recollection, Yan Zaizen said with a confident tone, ”Well, I would've...lasted longer than that.”
”...”
”...”
