Soaring of Galaxia
Chapter 589: Confession Under the Eyes of Ten Thousand People

Of course, the most glamorous ones were not these sect leaders, but the one who was seated at the dragon seat highly above them: the king of the entire Heavenly Emperor Mountain!

As the person who could make the Heavenly Emperor Mountain shake three times by stomping his feet, His Majesty Heavenly Emperor was the grandest supreme figure!

At last, the legendary figure had clearly presented himself before Qin Wushuang. As Qin Wushuang looked at the Heavenly Emperor, he appeared aloof and remote. It seemed as though he was seeing a ball of golden radiance, a large unidentifiable shape. It was difficult to tell if the Heavenly Emperor was real or not because he could not capture his true appearance.

A surge of breathtaking, yet mild-mannered tone resembling the sound of a loud bell emerged, "Everyone, after three days, I thank you again for keeping this appointment. The Heavenly Emperor Mountain has always been the outstanding talent of the Xuan Yuan Mound, and has acted as a role model for the Mound. Because of the hard efforts poured by the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates, the Heavenly Emperor Mountain was able to emerge as the core in the spotlight. Both Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect and the Floating Snow House are important powerhouses of the Xuan Yuan Mound. Regarding the ruling of this matter, the Heavenly Emperor Mountain must also make persuasive adjudication for we cannot disappoint the heart of all powerhouses at the Xuan Yuan Mound."

As these words had not yet revealed his exact motive, no one knew how to agree with him, despite their desire to. Therefore, they could only stay in silence and wait for the Heavenly Emperor to continue speaking.

After the Heavenly Emperor had spoken these words, he did not continue the topic. Instead, he said with an indifferent tone, "Go and bring Miss Mu Rong and the leaders of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect forward. We shall clarify the rights and wrongs of the matter face to face."

Inwardly, Qin Wushuang shivered with fear. The words spoken by the Heavenly Emperor sounded to be fair, yet Qin Wushuang had an uneasy feeling that most likely, this matter would not conclude with an ideal result.

However, Qin Wushuang was rather undisturbed. He never expected that Heavenly Emperor Mountain to make any devastating rulings to the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect from the beginning.

Especially after destroying the Subduing Stone Devil Tablet of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, he had cast all of his remaining hope behind him.

Since he had the ability to solve the problem himself, why would he count on others?

Even if this was the Heavenly Emperor, the one known as the ruler of the Xuan Yuan Mound and the King of the Heavenly Emperor Mountain, it made no difference.

From the beginning, Qin Wushuang had not carried much hope. Regardless of the situation, his own two fists would be the most trustworthy tools he could depend on.

Miss Mu Rong was the first one brought up. When her eyes looked over to Qin Wushuang, a surge of red flashed across her wan and sallow complexion. Her eyes also showed a new sense of life and vibrancy.

Upon seeing Miss Mu Rong's meager, wan and sallow appearance all of a sudden, Qin Wushuang's heart thumped as a stab of pain emerged. Compared to when he had seen her last at the Sky Breaking City, Miss Mu Rong had become much thinner. However, that surge of determination and resolution in between her brows had appeared as firm as in the past.

Even with such a momentary glance, it was as if they had conversed thousands of words. Surges of warm currents raged through their hearts. Although there were countless elite warriors in front of them, it seemed as though it was only the two of them left in the Heavenly Emperor Palace.

Immediately after, three Dao Warriors of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect were also brought up. When Luo Tongtian saw Qin Chongyang and Qin Wushuang he instantly remembered something.

He had never faced Qin Wushuang, yet he had recognized him instantly by his strong emanating power.

Instantly, with glaring and resenting eyes, he fixed his attention to Qin Wushuang. If it weren't for all the Supreme Dao warriors around, he would have lost control and killed Qin Wushuang on the spot.

Qin Wushuang shot a cold glance at Luo Tongtian. Clearly, he would not get intimidated by Luo Tongtian's glare.

In spite of his endless hatred, ultimately Luo Tongtian would not dare unleash unbridled actions before all of these elite warriors. Not to mention, there were much more important matters waiting for him to explain.

From his aloof and remote place, the Heavenly Emperor had taken in the whole scene; however, he appeared to not notice these interactions.

He only opened his mouth to speak with an indifferent tone, "Mu Rong Xu, in spite of the arduous journey, you came to the Heavenly Emperor Mountain to file a lawsuit saying that the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect had violated the ten-thousand-year agreement and invaded the human countries. Has such a thing happened? Do you have evidence?"

"Your Majesty, Luo Ting bewitched these freelance martial artists and went to harass the human countries. At the Iron Wood State City of the Orderly Mountain Prefecture, many freelance martial artists had seen this with their own eyes. Although Luo Ting has met punishment, certainly the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect behind him should not escape responsibility. Afterwards, the Stargaze Palace of the human countries was destroyed. This was also a crime carried by the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect. Your Majesty, as the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect behaves with such unscrupulous actions, if they are not severely punished, I am afraid it would be difficult to appeal the masses."

Mu Rong Xu had enunciated clearly with a neither servile nor overbearing tone. Although she was somewhat nervous under the imposing manner of the Heavenly Emperor, she had found the needed strength to speak.

The Heavenly Emperor gave a light nod. "Regarding Luo Ting's bewitchment of the others, there are freelance martial artists from many different places who can prove this with their own personal experiences. However, this bewitching was carried through with Luo Ting's own individual actions, no inappropriate action was conducted by the higher-ups of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect. Luo Ting leaving was for his own selfish actions, for he had not received approval from the leader of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect."

Luo Tongtian took advantage of the subject, "Your majesty, Mu Rong Xu was engaged to Luo Ting. Since she broke the promise of marriage, it proves that she holds a personal grudge with Luo Ting. Perhaps she is filing this lawsuit because of a personal grudge and using this public office to avenge private wrong. I am not convinced of her intentions with this lawsuit to my Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect."

Luo Tongtian spoke with a form of victimized tone.

Mu Rong Xu maintained a calm expression as if she had already experience Luo Tongtian's rascal behavior. "Dao Warrior Luo, it's true that I don't see eye to eye with Luo Ting. However, me exposing his actions is of course not because I don't like him, but because his actions are indeed hated by both man and god. His actions may not just push the human countries to the abyss that is consigned to eternal damnation, it's highly possible that it would allow the Xuan Yuan Mound's reputation to suffer. The worst outcome is that it may prompt the conflict between the Forbidden Spiritual Zones!"

Luo Tongtian said with a cold sneer, "You, little girl, know just how to use frightening words to scare people. Do you think it's that easy for conflicts to arise between the Forbidden Spiritual Zones? The Heavenly Emperor has always been fair and brilliant, so how could he be allured by your bewitching words?"

From behind Luo Tongtian, the Fourth Dao Warrior, Zuo Lengshuang, said with a gloomy tone, "Miss Mu Rong, since you are filing a lawsuit against the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, would you dare let me ask you a few questions?"

Mu Rong Xu said indifferently, "Even if you are to ask a hundred questions, I will be fearless."

Zuo Lengshuang nodded, "Alright, let me begin. Everyone is saying that you have personal feelings for Qin Wushuang of the human countries. You have colluded with him to deal with Luo Ting, deliberately provoking him and leading him to a chaotic state. Is this not correct?"

Mu Rong Xu responded with a somewhat mocking tone, "Luo Ting's mind was never normal. Due to his chaotic mentality, it's unnecessary for anyone to deliberately enrage him."

Zuo Lengshuang said with a hateful tone, "You little girl have such a malicious tongue. Do you dare not answer whether or not you have personal feelings for Qin Wushuang? Would you deny your intimate feelings for Qin Wushuang?"

These were incredibly devious questions and rendered Mu Rong Xu unable to answer for the time being.

Qin Wushuang could no longer stay in silence as he walked out and stood before Mu Rong Xu. He bowed to the Heavenly Emperor and said, "Your majesty, I am Qin Wushuang and I would like to say a few words, if I may."

Heavenly Emperor said with an indifferent tone, "Today, those with reason or even without are all qualified to speak. Speak your mind."

Qin Wushuang nodded and shot a determined glance at Mu Rong Xu. His glance delivered a sense of assurance to Mu Rong Xu, allowing her mind to instantly settle.

"Dao Warrior Zuo, I became acquainted with miss Mu Rong through the sound of the zither and we have become close friends since. As long as I am alive in this world, I will always be moved by miss Mu Rong's musical sound which deepens my admiration for her. This is unilateral admiration from me alone. What would it have to do with miss Mu Rong? You are saying how miss Mu Rong has such a malicious tongue, but to me, you lashing out with your overbearing words is where the true loathsome mouth lies."

As soon as Qin Wushuang spoke these words, even Mu Rong Xu was astonished as her affectionate heart jumped continuously. She truly did not think that Qin Wushuang would speak such words in this crowded public space. It sounded as though he was sticking up for Mu Rong Xu; however, combined with his previous meaningful glance, it was more like a form of magnanimous and straightforward confession.

Zuo Lengshuang said with a ruthless laughter, "I do not care about those filthy little matters between you two. For indeed, your adulterous acts are true. Because of this, the words of this little girl Mu Rong Xu will certainly be biased. How can we trust her accusation? If she were not to side with the male adulterer, who else would she show favor to?"

Instantly, an embarrassed tone had appeared on Mu Rong Xu's beautiful face. To a young girl, it would be difficult to accept such words.

In spite of her boldness, dedication and strong beliefs, under the gaze of all these eyes and harsh words she had been stricken with grief and rendered speechless.

Qin Wushuang looked at Zuo Lengshuang coldly. "Zuo Lengshuang, to conduct yourself with this behavior is truly an example of your incomparable lowliness. Did your Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect always rule as a despot? How come up to this point you would not dare admit to a single thing you have done, yet you are relying on using malicious words to hurt others and to conceal yourself? Is the grand Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect left with using such despicable methods to cover your crimes? If this is the case, even if you are able to cross the sea by a trick, across the boundless natural law, there will be justice in the end!"

Luo Tongtian swore, "Qin Wushuang, you still dare to speak this nonsense here? You attacked my mountain gate and killed my Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect's heir. These things are true, right?"

"You are right." Qin Wushuang seemed unhurried and his tone was full of hatred. "I am not like the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, who would run away, but not have the courage to admit it. I destroyed the Subduing Devil Stone Tablet. I also killed Luo Ting and those four vicious dogs of the Morning Sun Town. Even further, I manipulated Landlord Zuo, controlling Luo Yang to enter the Nine Refined Mysterious Wind Valley. I have done it all. What about it? I did what had to be done! Since the beginning, the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect has not left me a path to live, so why would I spare you a path to live?"

Qin Wushuang's voice was so loud that even the deaf could hear him. He said to the earth and to the heaven, "Your majesty, I have nothing to say if this Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect does not get punished. I hold justice in my heart: sooner or later I will seek revenge! Everything I have done has originated from the chase to kill from the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect. They have gone too far. As soon as I had entered the Xuan Yuan Mound, I encountered their bounty assassination. Next, Luo Ting moved out and after that almost all of the people from the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect moved out. When they could not kill me, they took their anger out on my sect and caused its destruction. For such actions, how could it be wrong for me to fight back?"

Qin Wushuang didn't seem completely finished with his rant as he pointed at Mu Rong Xu and said, "Miss Mu Rong has come to file the lawsuit due to righteousness, regardless of the consequences. Possessing such noble character and unquestionable integrity should be the anecdote passed on and upheld by the whole world. Instead, what abusive words the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect has thrown at her. These actions prove that the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect has abandoned their virtues!"

After speaking such powerful and resonating words, out of a sense of justice, all the leaders of the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates became tense and breathless as they anxiously waited for what was to become of Qin Wushuang.
