Ironclad Group Chat: Red and Black Lists Engraved with Heroic Epics

"Taoran!" The Dragon Masters gritted their teeth.

Such a good lifeline, and it just slipped through my fingers?

As long as they control Bailu and make Jingyuan hesitant to act, whether they can retain their power after a lengthy interrogation and exchange of benefits is another matter, but they will definitely survive.

This is an inherent vulnerability of giant organizations.

However, Tao Ran even failed to kidnap a child!

Moreover, it has become known throughout the entire universe. If such a despicable act of collusion and destruction were to be established in front of everyone, Marshal Hua might very well ostracize Chi Ming from the Alliance in order to sever ties!

Everyone was filled with shock, anger, and secret fear. It seemed that even if Tao Ran were truly executed, it would be difficult to save themselves by sacrificing the pawn to protect the king.

Xuepu angrily retorted, "You good-for-nothing, more trouble than you're worth!"

……

"Wow! Everyone's here?" Xing looked at the messages in the chat group and her smile gradually grew. "This trip was worthwhile."

"This melon is incredibly big and incredibly sweet!"

March 7th: "That's right, we didn't expect to see living generals and marshals before we even reached the Immortal Ship. By the way, do you think the Dragon Masters are still at risk of survival? Uncle Yang, you... Uncle Yang, why do you have that expression again?"

Walter flipped through Marshal Hua's account information, looking at her familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar profile picture, his eyelids trembling slightly.

This universe is truly a treasure trove, and it often gives him a sense of home.

"It's nothing, just a feeling stirred by the scenery."

Fortunately, this person's existence wasn't as shocking as those who suddenly appeared like Huang Quan or Bai E. Marshal Hua had heard of him before, but seeing him in person still stirred his emotions.

"Forget about that." Xing, adhering to the principle that one shouldn't complain about the extravagance of a funeral, furiously tapped the keys: "It's time to kick someone when they're down!"

[Taoran: Marshal, sir!]

[Star: Marshal Hua, you saw it all, right? This guy not only colluded with the Antimatter Legion, but he also tried to lure and kill our cute, pitiful, and harmless little Azure Dragon on the train. What kind of crime is this? We're all going to fight the Iron Tomb in the future, this is betraying our allies! If he succeeds, we'll be one less Titan when we fight the Iron Tomb, causing us to lose. What kind of crime is that? This is a conspiracy to destroy the universe!]

[Taoran: Holy crap?!]

[Undying Path: This reasoning...makes perfect sense!]

[Old Bai: A detective's reasoning is never useful, but intuition is always accurate.]

[Xuepu: Marshal, Tao Ran is a wolf in sheep's clothing, committing such a heinous crime. His execution is the only way to appease public anger!]

[Taoran: How dare you kick someone when they're down at a time like this? Are you clean?! Marshal, I confess my guilt, but no matter what, my sins are nothing compared to destroying the universe! I am willing to be a witness and expose all the sordid deeds of Luofu Chiming over the years. Please, for the sake of my people's inability to grow, allow me to suffer the punishment of having my scales removed.]

Even through the screen, Tao Ran kowtowed deeply to Hua from afar.

You are heartless, so don't blame me for being unjust. If the charges are proven true, even ten thousand heads wouldn't be enough to chop him off. It's better for my friend to die than for me to die.

Even if all the other dragon masters die without a burial place, and he leaves the field having shed his scales, it would still be considered a huge win.

At worst, in his next life, he'll be pinned down on the head by that little girl, the Dragon Lord, and have her poop on his neck.

……

The dragon masters were furious when they saw that he had betrayed them.

[Xuepu: Taoran, you...you're spouting nonsense! Marshal, I will immediately execute this man to prove Luofu Chiming's loyalty.]

[Hua: Step back! It's too late to kill me now, isn't it? As for the extent of the punishment… @Xuanquan, General Fubo, I'm sure you've been watching, haven't you? This concerns the Dragon Masters of an entire Immortal Ship; this is no longer a simple legal matter, but a massive power struggle. Without your statement, it's difficult for me to determine the sentence.]

Upon seeing this, Tao Ran and all the Dragon Masters felt a chill run down their spines.

Sentencing... The process of a case, in order, is evidence collection, conviction, sentencing, and execution.

This is clearly a veiled statement that their crimes are beyond dispute.

and……

Tao Ran's face turned black, and his eyes trembled.

The Immortal Boat's Chiming faction can be broadly divided into the Dragon Lord Orthodox faction and the Dragon Master Political Council faction. Xuan Quan, as the only Dragon Descendant General, holds a position in the hearts of the somewhat xenophobic Chiming people that is no less than that of a Marshal. However, she is also an undisputed member of the Dragon Lord faction.

Moreover, as a female general, she was known for her integrity and incorruptibility.

Marshal Hua's conviction might still have to take into account the unity of the five ethnic groups, but her arrival means a complete purge of the family.

[Xuan Quan: I have nothing to say. Betrayal and power struggles led to Huanlong seizing the Jianmu Tree, plunging the Immortal Boat Alliance into peril… a disgrace! The entire Chiming Alliance will be shamed because of this. Even if Tao Ran possesses extraordinary abilities and deceived all the other Dragon Masters, these incompetent fools should also be punished and executed! Besides, heh heh, does Tao Ran even deserve it? After deceiving the world and stealing fame, does he still want to deceive my intelligence?]

dong dong!

The dragon masters' legs trembled and their vision blurred.

[Hua: Alright. Tao Ran, you personally accused General Shence of targeting Chi Ming before, right? Do you still have anything to say? If you have any objections, should I bring in the Emperor Bow Master again and let Him personally judge you?!]

[Taoran: No, I wouldn't dare! Marshal, please have mercy! I know a lot, I really do know a lot!]

[Star: I really want to see. Lan is a Star God, and I am also a Star God. I really want to learn how He judges me.]

[Chaos Break: If the Great Storm God were here, there wouldn't be so many steps; it would just be a single arrow, whoosh!]

[Mirror Flow: So, how exactly will the execution be carried out? Forced removal of scales? And what will be the scope of the punishment?]

[Blade: They got off too easily.]

[Hua: Sigh... Such a momentous matter naturally requires careful consideration; how can it be resolved hastily? Therefore... the Marshal orders, the Immortal Ship to remain silent.]

[Jingyuan: Jingyuan, obey my command.]

[Yao Guang: Yao Guang, obey my command.]

……

[Hua: This matter is of great importance and cannot be ignored. The former Sword Master Jingliu of the Luofu Immortal Boat, known for his understanding of the bigger picture and prioritizing the overall situation, has returned from his experience and is hereby appointed as the Special Envoy with full authority over the case of Dragon Master's treason. He is granted complete authority over all procedures from evidence gathering to execution. The official appointment letter will be sent shortly. Let's proceed accordingly.]

[Jingyuan: Huh?!]

Inside the Shence Palace, Jing Yuan was dumbfounded.

This is definitely an exceptional promotion.

This kind of arrangement, where everything from evidence gathering to execution is handled by a single person, is something even a backward civilization that hasn't fully grasped classical mechanics wouldn't do, let alone the Celestial Ship. After all, it's like the entire case is determined by the presiding official's word.

But what surprised him even more was this choice.

Mirror Flow!

Given her current state, do the dragon masters still want her to shed her scales? Ha! Even the phrase "complete corpse" is practically a double wish!

The marshal wasn't trying to avoid oversight; he was using this as a way to vent his anger on the Five Valiant Warriors of the Clouds who were gradually returning in an unconventional manner.

Of course, considering the crimes of the Dragon Masters in colluding to destroy, it's not entirely unfair to accuse them.
