Chapter 1852: Chapter 1028: Divine Council_3
"Being cautious is good, but excessive caution can be overdone. Moreover, you need to explain your actions, especially since you’re one of the participants in this incident."
Another figure emerged, bringing a mysterious chaos to the platform: Taichu God King!
Afterward, other god kings, Chaos, Demon Lord, Demon Emperor, Explaner, and Heavenly Pillar also appeared one by one.
Each of them, even without deliberately releasing divine power, exuded an unfathomable aura.
Aside from Chaos God King and Taichu God King having slightly similar auras, each of the other god kings was distinctly different.
On Demon Lord, Tao Yu felt an aura akin to Abyss Demon God, as if Demon Lord extensively borrowed the Power of Abyss, yet completely commanded it, balancing it without any sense of pollution!
Demon Emperor is the leader of non-human divine spirits, though called ’demon,’ it’s more akin to ’alien.’
Under his command are not traditionally trained ’demons,’ but purely demon-like, non-human entities!
Explaner seemed more like he had no physical form, purely a phantom will.
Heavenly Pillar God King, once he appeared, exuded solidity, as if his head touched the sky and his feet rooted in the earth.
Even within the All Gods Temple, the presence of God Kings did not significantly affect the external world.
Tao Yu felt the platform beneath his feet was not merely a resting place but also a limitation and protection.
Otherwise, a strong entity like a God King might "accidentally" strike down a True God with just a thought.
However, at this moment, facing the words of Taichu God King, Tao Yu, receiving everyone’s attention, calmly responded,
"Previously, I contributed to the salvation of Jianmu World Island, and afterward, I received some rewards, coincidentally completing a breakthrough. It just happened by chance."
Tao Yu’s words were steady and unperturbed, and although everyone knew he was bluffing, there was really no evidence to refute him.
Elsewhere, lack of evidence may suffice for subjective judgment, but at least within the All Gods Temple, under the oversight of this Divine Council called upon by God of Wealth, no one could say anything.
"Besides, as you all can see, my strength among True Gods is still quite decent. If I did collude with the Evil God, it would have been too easy to wreak havoc after Wooden Dragon entered the Abyss.
"I merely sensed something was amiss and withdrew at the right time."
Tao Yu explained from another perspective, leaving no room for rebuttal from others.
"Indeed, ’First,’ although somewhat unique in character, has always been dedicated to saving the world, preventing several Evil God incidents. He is a newcomer to our Purification Holy Hall, and I believe in his integrity."
Within the position of Main God, the most renowned supporter of Purification Holy Hall, known for being upright and just, [Lingxiao Main God] also spoke firmly, supporting Tao Yu.
This action of being appreciated and strongly supported by the notorious antagonist made even Tao Yu feel a bit odd.
I have truly become a villain.
Perhaps upon seeing my potential and sensing my ’caution,’ they deliberately came out strongly to support and recruit me.
However, looking around, though only a person along with me, I stood among the heads of many True Gods, seemingly about to step into the ranks of Main Gods.
Moreover, it seems like using the ’standard operations’ of Purification Holy Hall, and finding a few suitable opportunities, unless my path on the Divine Road is blocked, the ascent into Main God ranks is nearly certain.
In theory, entities like God of War and Day and Night Dual Gods already start considering Main God issues, and for me to travel so far before reaching True God, my Divine Road must be powerful, and even after becoming Main God, I won’t be weak.
Completely worth such an investment.
"Yes, our Purification Holy Hall has always had a stellar reputation, how can we let those converted Outer Gods slander us wantonly!"
Within the line of God of War, another figure [Sanctioner] also righteously spoke.
"We received secret intel and went to provide support, even ahead of time providing information, but who could have expected Konoha would attack us indiscriminately? If you say he hasn’t sided with the Abyss, I don’t believe it."
Light God, who was a participant, also began protesting.
"Blood libel!"
Konoha indeed felt somewhat exasperated but sorrowfully realized that facing this group adept at reversing black and white, he had absolutely no solid evidence to present!
Afterward, he continuously attempted to gather clues, including the secret intel provided to him by the other side, but discovered that these guys did a very thorough job!
The provided information, though misleading, didn’t have any errors, all words were deliberately ambiguous like ’suspected,’ ’possibly,’ ’according to rumors,’ crafting nothing with loopholes.
On the contrary, several associations and World Islands collaborating with Jianmu World Island began showing problems, invisible hands influencing everything from behind!
"Hmph, just look at ’First’ His Might and you can tell, if we indeed harbored malice, after Mr. Wooden Dragon entered the Abyss, the entire Jianmu World Island could be destroyed, leaving no evidence!"
Light God, taking advantage of the opportunity, brought up Tao Yu’s deeds, further solidifying this point.
Then Lingxiao Main God spoke once again,
"Since this matter involves the reputation of our Purification Holy Hall, we have conducted a thorough investigation afterward..."
As Lingxiao Main God spoke, various pieces of circumstantial evidence, references, and witnesses began appearing one by one.
Although no substantial evidence pointed to Konoha colluding with Evil God, they examined some of the transactional details of Jianmu World Island.
After all, indeed, Evil God believers infiltrated Jianmu Family Island through various merchant caravans, leaving traces behind.
Even behaviors like collecting space stone Dao Mark patterns within Nephilim Realm were brought up as main evidence suggesting Jianmu World Island’s inner betrayal.
"Unfortunately, we lack concrete evidence to accuse you, but once God of Wealth’s area of safety ends, we definitely will launch a Divine War of retribution to eliminate ungrateful folks like you!"
Weather Goddess similarly began to boast.
This Divine Council can’t pass judgment on you now, but afterward, our willful judgment at the Purification Holy Hall will see how you evade it!
Now openly shared is also to notify all parties this is provoked by the other side first!
By then, defeating Jianmu World Island will be a mere retaliation, not a display of aggressive invasion by Purification Holy Hall!
And Jianmu World Island itself, once coveted and schemed for by Purple Cloud Main God, holds significant value.
Currently, numerous Outer Sea forces are forced to shrink into the Inner Sea, increasing the value of such territory, making it expensive with no supply.
Their sequential speeches, utilizing this Divine Council to legitimize, planning soundly for future punitive actions, indeed reflect a well-calculated plan.
However, with Lingxiao Main God speaking strongly, even the Seven Great Divine Kings did not refute, choosing not to interfere in such ’private matters,’ leaving no voice for Konoha, the converted divine spirit.
Furthermore, with the current value of Jianmu World Island, indeed, Konoha cannot defend it.
Even though he is a native divine spirit of Jianmu World Island, able to merge with Jianmu and exert significant power.
But ultimately, he isn’t the Wooden Dragon!
In this world, lacking strength is original sin!
Not to mention others have found such reasonable explanations and excuses, even if a fabricated charge is imposed, no one will speak up!
The reason for doing so much is merely to alleviate tension from other parties and prevent a disgraceful meal leading to joint opposition from other forces, that’s all...
