Chapter 1087 The Death Penalty is Inevitable

"Xingxiu Hai, didn't you say that we just need to watch? What's the situation now?" Lin Shen was anxious and wanted Xingxiu Hai to contact the Jade Emperor as soon as possible to see if there was any possibility of saving the situation.

"Is there anything wrong?" Xingxiu Hai asked back.

"What's wrong? Now he's been sentenced to death, passed by six votes, passed unanimously, what do you think is wrong?" Lin Shen was depressed and wanted to curse.

"There's nothing wrong with it, isn't it?" Xingxiuhai still spoke recklessly.

"There's nothing wrong with this. Please contact the Jade Emperor for me as soon as possible." Lin Shen was a little anxious.

"Then let me confirm again, the person you want to save is High Priest Shi Zhongqing, right?" Xing Xiuhai asked slowly.

"That's right." Lin Shen answered immediately, just wanting to make Xingxiu Sea go faster.

"That's right. The person you want to save is Shi Zhongqing. Isn't everything normal now? Is there anything wrong?" Xing Xiuhai said.

"I want to save Shi Zhongqing... Now it has been passed unanimously... He will be executed...soon..." Lin Shen said, as if he realized something, his brain suddenly buzzed, and his eyes widened in disbelief: "What do you mean just now... Do you mean... that the person who is being executed is not the Great Priest Shi..."

Lin Shen couldn't believe that the facts would be as he guessed, but Xingxiu Hai soon gave a positive answer.

The entire Immortal Court thought that Shi Zhongqing was finished and would be executed soon.

Wu Qing couldn't hide his excitement, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

This was the most brilliant thing he had done during all his years of undercover work in the Immortal Court, besides being promoted to acting high priest.

After getting rid of Shi Zhongqing, the person arranged by the God-making Clan in the Zhongtianxing Palace will have a great chance to ascend to the position of high priest, and will be one step closer to overthrowing the rule of the Immortal Court.

"Shi Zhongqing is dead, and Lin Shen will not escape death either. You should never come to the Immortal Court, and you should not be the enemy of our God-creating Clan." Wu Qing was happy. If he was not still on the God-Slaying Platform, if the entire Immortal Court was not watching him, he would have laughed out loud uncontrollably.

He knew that A Tian was Lin Shen and had known Lin Shen's true identity for a long time. He didn't care much at first, but just made a move and took Lin Shen's life in his hands. He would use him when needed, and get rid of him if he didn't.

Who could have thought that Shi Zhongqing would be involved in Lin Shen's case, and that he would be able to get Shi Zhongqing down. Everything was too perfect.

"Great Priest Shi...you shouldn't be so confused..." Wu Qing sighed and said to Shi Zhongqing with pretended regret.

Shi Zhongqing simply said: "When people get old, they are bound to be confused, but I am not that old yet. It is you, however, who should be prepared."

Wu Qing smiled and didn't take Shi Zhongqing's words to heart at all. It had come to this point and it was useless for Shi Zhongqing to say anything. Wu Qing had some doubts in his heart before, but there was no need to pay attention to them now.

The light from the six statues of great emperors rose, and the two stone platforms also shone brightly.

Everyone knew that the next thing would be that the criminals would be sent to the Execution Platform to be executed.

Suddenly, the light on a stone platform went out, and it became pitch black, and the person on the platform also disappeared.

“What’s going on… What’s happening…” Everyone who was paying attention to the God-Slaying Platform was stunned, staring blankly at the stone tablet on the platform.

The blackened stone platform was not the one where Shi Zhongqing was standing, but the one where Wu Qing was standing. Shi Zhongqing was still standing on his stone platform, and the light on the stone platform was still there. On the contrary, after Wu Qing's stone platform was extinguished, he appeared in front of the stone tablet, and was locked to the stone tablet by chains of order light. He was hung in front of the stone tablet in the posture of being torn apart by five horses.

"You're wrong... The person who is going to be punished is Shi Zhongqing... He is the defendant... I am the plaintiff..." Wu Qing struggled hard, resisting the urge to curse, and shouted loudly at the six statues of the great emperors.

Everyone was like Wu Qing, thinking that the Execution Platform had confused the plaintiff and the defendant and sent the plaintiff to the execution platform by mistake.

However, over billions of years, the God-Slaying Platform has never made any mistakes. The expressions of some more sober people became very complicated at this time.

The high priests from several other star regions all frowned and looked at Shi Zhongqing, wondering what means this old guy had used to send the plaintiff to the execution platform. This had never happened before.

"That's right. After a joint trial, the plaintiff instigated his subordinates to deliberately kill the Star Priest and falsely accused the High Priest. His crime is unforgivable and the death penalty must be executed immediately." The stone tablet shone brightly, and at the same time, there was an emotionless voice, like a machine-like voice.

"I didn't do it... I don't accept it... Here is the evidence... It was Shi Zhongqing who killed the Star Priest... Not me... Why should I be convicted... Why is he not guilty..." Wu Qing was shocked and angry. He never expected that this would be the result. There was no precedent at all.

"You may not accept it." The disembodied mechanical voice sounded again from the stone tablet: "The death penalty is inevitable."

As the voice fell, lightning burst out from the stone tablet. Strange lightning was born from the order light chain and entered Wu Qing's body.

In just a moment, Wu Qingdian's whole body was twitching as if he had polio.

As strong as Wu Qing was, he had no ability to resist on the God-Slaying Platform and was directly struck by lightning and lost the ability to control his body.

This kind of lightning was incomparable to ordinary lightning power. It directly washed away Wu Qing's cultivation and brought him down to the mortal world.

A strange scene appeared on the stone tablet. A faceless god stood with a big knife in his hand. He slashed at Wu Qing, who was hanging in front of the stone tablet and being continuously bombarded by lightning.

It was clearly just an illusory image, but after the knife was chopped down, it was as if a knife from the two-dimensional world broke through into the three-dimensional world, leaped out from the image, and chopped Wu Qing's head.

With a snapping sound, Wu Qing's head separated from his body and flew to the stage, with blood spurting everywhere.

Because his entire body had been cleansed by lightning and all his abilities and powers had been cleared away, Wu Qing died immediately after his head was cut off, with no possibility of resurrection.

Everyone stared at this scene in amazement, the astonishment on their faces seemed to be frozen.

A few seconds ago, no one had expected this outcome.

Shi Zhongqing did not die, but Wu Qing died, which made it difficult for them to accept it for a while.

It was obvious that Shi Zhongqing was the defendant, and all the evidence pointed to Shi Zhongqing, so why was Wu Qing the one being punished, and why was he the one who died?

"That old guy...what on earth did he do..." All the star priests, looking at the already old and frail Shi Zhongqing on the stage, felt deeply fearful.

Shi Zhongqing looked calm at this moment, but he was not calm in his heart: "It is just as I thought, he is him."
