”You have only met me once, how can you tell that I am that swindler?”
Li Dao's voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard in everyone's heart. The officials were stunned for a moment.
That's right, could it be that the other party was a fraud?
In this era, most people believed in the saying of ghosts and gods. Moreover, ghosts and gods truly existed, and there were also scholars who didn't believe in ghosts and gods. However, not everyone was like Prime Minister Song Yangxu.
To be able to enter the palace, it could be said that among the civil and military people in the imperial court, not a single one was a fool. Just now, they had only been affected by Song Yangxu's iron will and aura. As they calmed down and thought about it, their gazes towards Li Dao immediately changed.
Let's not talk about anything else. Just based on Li Dao's appearance and bearing, what kind of mortals could possibly have?
”Everyone, the officials still need to talk about finding evidence in a case. The Prime Minister directly determined that I was a swindler and a swindler, trying to trick His Majesty into doing so.” But is His Majesty really that gullible? Or do you all think that His Majesty is that three year old child? ”
When Li Dao spoke, his face was expressionless and he did not move his body. However, the officials could not refute him.
Seeing that the officials were speechless, the emperor's mood improved a lot.
Of course his will would not be shaken so easily. He looked at Li Dao with disdain and asked, ”You call yourself a deity, but is it possible that you can prove your identity as a deity? Which immortal in the temple looks like you? It's obvious that he's a demon from a calamitous country! ”
”Ridiculous! When did I ever say I was an immortal?”
Li Dao's gaze turned cold. Towards this kind of stubborn and unreasonable person, who would have a good temper after so many tangles? Even the Clay Buddha had a bit of a temper.
”Since he is not a deity, does he really dare to spout such arrogant words to bring calamity to everyone?”
The disdain on Song Yangxu's face became more obvious. He was just a swindler, he only used illusions to scare people. This old man has lived for more than half his life. I've seen all sorts of hardships, yet I still can't tear you apart as a swindler? Song Yangxu thought like this, and a cold smile appeared on his face.
”I disdain being bothered by ordinary people like you. What, do you all think I'm a swindler?”
Li Dao did not look at Song Yangxu anymore. There was no need to argue with him. Besides, Li Dao had never been good at arguing. If he could settle the matter himself, why bother arguing? Arguing with a common man seemed to be demeaning.
There were also people from the civil and military officials who were well-informed. They stood aside and kept a low profile, not saying a word.
There were still some officials who were skeptical. It was said that Immortals had great divine abilities, but how many had actually seen immortals?
Li Dao did not want to argue with him, but Song Yangxu felt that Li Dao was weak, so he grew even more imposing, and said, ”If you are truly capable, why not show us your skills, in order to prove your identity as an expert, or else you will be deceiving His Majesty and committing the crime of deceiving the monarch, you will have to exterminate three races!”
”Indeed, you might as well show your true abilities so that we common folk can have an eye-opener.”
Cao Jing Xiu stood on the same side as Song Yangxu, and spoke to Li Dao in a neither cold nor indifferent manner.
”How dare you!? Martial Granduncle has an esteemed status. He can't even be compared to the immortals of the heavens. How could you doubt him?”
Lin Mu was indignant. Facing the entire imperial court, he felt greatly humiliated. If Li Dao was not here, Lin Mu would not be so angry. However, Li Dao's sacred art was genuine, and Lin Mu was confident that he could go against Song Yangxu and the rest.
