The Human Emperor, with a peaceful tone and no intention of blaming Lei Zhanghua, waved his hand, allowing Lei Zhanghua to return to the ranks.
"Thank you, Human Emperor!"
Lei Zhanghua expressed his gratitude but glanced at Jin Yuan with an unwilling look in his eyes.
The Human Emperor, even knowing his own guilt, still forgave him so easily; Even if he did not plead guilty, he would still not face any punishment, right?
Elder Jin, did he overreact?
Jin Yuan, with an indifferent expression, gave no response to Lei Zhanghua's questioning eyes.
"Human Emperor!"
Xiao Mu couldn't help but step forward again, cupping his hands towards the Human Emperor, and said unwillingly, "Killing one's own, it's a grave sin, one that should be repaid with life. Elder Lei Zhanghua was supposed to escort Yang Yuan up the mountain, but out of fear of the Heavenly Court, and fearing to implicate himself, he killed Yang Yuan and fled alone. Please, Human Emperor, punish him for his crime."
