Zhou Tianqi and the others exchanged glances: "Let's go!"
The four of them entered Wang Hu's river of memories together. The next second, the opening closed, and everything returned to calm.
Yun Jie and Qin Guang exchanged a glance and laughed, "Let's wait for the results. If it's not Wang Hu, then it must be Jin Tian."
Qin Guang didn't reply, glanced at the silent Jin Tian, and sighed, "Alas, why bother..."
Yun Jie also turned to look at Jin Tian and asked softly, "How are you? Nervous?"
Jin Tian has now calmed down. He just quietly looks at Yun Jie and Qin Guang without saying a word.

"Did you think you'd be okay just by staying silent? Or do you think you're not guilty enough to die?"
Yun Jie looked at Jin Tian calmly and said slowly, "Actually, I suspect you more than Wang Hu. Wang Hu is more like a target that is openly attacked, while you are the shadow hiding behind him."
Jin Tian remained silent. No matter how he tried to explain himself now, it would all fall apart when everyone examined his memory history.
He'd rather remain silent for now.
With Jin Tian uncooperative, Yun Jie lost interest in continuing the conversation and simply sat quietly, waiting for Zhou Tianqi and the others to return.
At this moment, Qin Guang suddenly transmitted his voice to Yun Jie: "If the traitor is really either Jin Tian or Wang Hu, do you really want to kill him?"
“Of course,” Yun Jie nodded without hesitation. “I know what you’re worried about, brother, but as long as the traitor isn’t eliminated, the human race will never be at peace. Not to mention me, the Great Xia Prefecture and the polytheistic script faction will never let this traitor go. If we don’t get rid of him, won’t the human race fall into internal strife?”
Qin Guang said with difficulty, "But this is an invincible being after all. Are we just going to give up like this? It would be better to let him perish together with all the races than to die at our hands."
Yun Jie shook his head: "If he dies at the hands of all races, what will he be? A hero of the human race? Does a traitor deserve to be a hero of the human race? Even if I agree, thousands of humans will not agree. We can face the sword in front of us, but we will never tolerate the knife from behind!"
Yun Jie said sternly, "Traitors should be nailed to the pillar of shame! They should be despised for eternity! Only in this way can we warn future generations not to go astray!"
Yun Jie understood Qin Guang's meaning. It wasn't that he didn't want to kill the traitor, but he felt it was a loss to let the traitor die at their hands. It would be better to let him fight against the two invincible beings of all races, which would also relieve the pressure on the human race.
Trading one traitor for two invincible warriors of all races is not a bad deal.
Yun Jie continued, "Brother, don't feel bad. At least the traitor left behind two artifacts after he died. I believe many people are lacking these things now."
"Ugh……"
Qin Guang sighed deeply. What could he say now that things had come to this?
······
······
after awhile.
The surrounding space rippled slightly, and in the next instant, an opening appeared in the void, from which Zhou Tianqi and his group of four walked out.
"Judging from your expressions, you've ruled out Wang Hu as a suspect?"
Zhou Tianqi and his companions looked relaxed, while Zhu the Landlord had a big smile on his face, probably because he had encountered something funny.
"Old Qin, Old Yun, I'm with you..."
"Ahem," Wang Hu said, looking at Zhu the landlord with an extremely resentful gaze, "That's going too far! I'm still here!"
Landlord Zhu exclaimed in surprise, "Oh dear, I got so excited I forgot..."
Wang Hu's eyes were dark and menacing as he gritted his teeth and said, "You just swore to me that you would, and now... you're going to go back on your word? Do you believe I'll go to Zhu Tiandao right now and beat him up?"
Landlord Zhu stroked his chin. "It's not impossible, as long as they don't kill them."
"Alright, Old Zhu, calm down. We have important business to attend to," Zhou Tianqi glanced at Zhu the landlord. This Old Zhu was never serious and never stopped talking.
Then Zhou Tianqi looked at Yun Jie and Qin Guang and nodded, saying, "It's confirmed. Wang Hu is innocent. His bloodline is not his own. Someone deliberately altered his bloodline. His traitorous behavior over the years has nothing to do with him."
Wang Hu muttered, "I've already said it wasn't me, but I just won't believe it."
Zhou Tianqi glanced at him: "Seeing is believing, hearing is deceiving. If I hadn't examined your memory river this time, would you have known that you were framed?"
"That being said, he at least made my strength advance by leaps and bounds, and I even succeeded in proving my Dao in a short period of time. This is all thanks to this mixed-blood and the relics they gave me."
Yun Jie feigned confusion at the opportune moment: "What exactly is going on?"
The group then recounted everything they had seen in Wang Hu's memory, except for the incident involving Wang Hu and Lan Tian.
Although Zhou Tianqi couldn't help but laugh at the time, he wasn't that gossipy. Besides, now was the time to talk about serious matters, so let's put aside those juicy gossips. Zhu Dizhu would bring them up sooner or later.
After he finished speaking, Yun Jie and Qin Guang suddenly realized what was going on. Yun Jie exclaimed, "So that's how it is! The person behind this has really put in a lot of effort for that real traitor."
Then Yun Jie turned to Jin Tianwang: "Wang Hu has been confirmed to be fine, now it's your turn, I hope you're fine too."
Zhou Tianqi said coldly, "Jintian, release your River of Memories!"
At this moment, Jin Tian finally spoke: "No need. I admit that I am the traitor you are looking for... but everything I have done is only against the polytheistic script lineage and Ye Batian's lineage. This is a personal grudge and does not involve the human race."
Yun Jie shook his head and said, "It's no use for you to argue now. No matter what you say, you can't deny one thing: you've never been on our side. That alone is enough."
Xia Wushen roared, "No matter what you say today, I will kill you!"
Zhou Tianqi glanced at the group indifferently: "No matter what, we still need to investigate his memories; there might be some useful information."
Zhou Tianqi turned his head and asked, "Are you asking us to investigate willingly, or do you want us to investigate forcibly?"
Jin Tian said expressionlessly, "Do whatever you want."
Yun Jie looked at him meaningfully: "There's no need to try anymore. Now that we've made our move, how could we possibly give you another chance to self-destruct? All your actions are in vain."
"Since he's unwilling to cooperate, let's just investigate him by force. Old Zhou, you do it."
Zhou Tianqi didn't hesitate and immediately struck, pressing his palm against Jin Tian's forehead. Then, with a forceful pull, a small river of memories appeared, but it was trembling violently—Jin Tian was resisting.
Jin Tian gritted his teeth: "Don't even think about it!"
"Hmph! That's not up to you!"
Zhou Tianqi struck Jin Tian with another palm strike, and Jin Tian instantly lost consciousness. Only then did the River of Memories stabilize.
"go!"
The group went inside, and Wang Hu also tried to sneak in, but Zhou Tianqi stopped him, saying, "This is none of your business. You can leave now. Once you're out, don't say anything out of line or act recklessly. Just pretend nothing happened."
"Damn it! You've used them and then discarded them!"
Wang Hu protested, "What's wrong with taking him along? Isn't his mouth more reliable than Zhu the landlord's? Why can he go in, but I can't?"
Zhou Tianqi stared at him coldly, without saying a word.
Wang Hu quickly changed his strategy: "I am skilled in the Way of Time. If you take me with you, I can help you stabilize the River of Time. I am much better than that shameless landlord Zhu. He is just an outsider. Don't worry, I will not tell anyone what I see."
Yun Jie smiled and said, "If he wants to see, let him in. Maybe he can actually lend a hand."
Wang Hu nodded repeatedly, "Yes, the Great Xuan King is right, I am very useful."
Zhou Tianqi sighed, "Alright, then you follow me."
Without hesitation, Wang Hu followed Zhou Tianqi into the river of memories.
Yun Jie turned his gaze to Qin Guang: "Brother, don't you want to go in and take a look?"
"No need, let's wait for the results."
Then, the river of memories slowly disappeared until it vanished completely.

Yun Jie and Qin Guang looked at the Forbidden Heavenly King lying on the ground, remaining silent.
Qin Guang's cold eyes held a hint of regret. In a way, Jin Tian had been with them all along and was an old acquaintance. He never expected things to turn out this way.
Qin Guang felt regret and heartache, but even more so, he felt murderous intent.
Traitors, no matter where they are, are unforgivable and inexcusable, and must be killed.
If it weren't for the dire situation of the human race, why would Qin Guang speak up for him at every turn? He was speaking for the traitor from the perspective of the human race, not from his own perspective. From his perspective, the traitor must be killed!
Qin Guang coldly asked, "If we really want to kill Jin Tian, how should we do it?"
After a long pause, Yun Jie answered firmly: "Publicly!"
Qin Guang stared into Yun Jie's eyes: "If that's the case, it will probably cause a tremor throughout the heavens. Putting aside how the myriad races will react, the morale and confidence of the human race will likely be shaken. They don't know the reason behind it, they only know that a traitor has emerged from among the invincible!"
"Won't they think, 'Even the invincible has betrayed us, so how many others below the invincible have betrayed us?' At that time, people will be in a state of panic, and how do you plan to appease them?"
Yun Jie already had an idea in mind, but he decided not to say it for the time being.
"Let's discuss this when Lao Zhou and the others return. We don't plan to execute Jin Tian immediately; we have enough time to deal with it."
······
In a very short moment.
Zhou Tianqi and his group of four returned, but their faces were not good, as if they had swallowed dead flies.
After a while.
Zhou Tianqi said with extreme heaviness, "The Prison King's lineage is traitors! They colluded with the Demon Clan as early as ancient times and left behind a lineage, but we don't know where they are hiding yet."
Yun Jie promptly feigned shock: "What? The Prison King, one of the Four Extreme Kings, is a traitor!?"
Zhou Tianqi gave Yun Jie a deep look. He was still unsure whether Yun Jie was a man of King Wen, King Yu, or a third party. He slowly said, "It is currently confirmed that the betrayal is by King Yu's lineage. As for whether King Yu himself has betrayed them, we do not know for the time being."
