Chapter 952: Doubts, Delay
The Emperor of the Central Empire didn\'t have a good impression of Xiao Tianyao, that was for sure. If he had a good impression of Xiao Tianyao, he wouldn\'t summon Xiao Tianyao to the Central Empire, nor would he leave him alone for more than half a month. Even at this time, he pushed him out to divert everyone\'s attention.
Xiao Tianyao expected the Emperor to make things difficult for him. Faced with the Emperor\'s aggressive questioning, Xiao Tianyao was very calm. When all the ministers looked at him and waited for his answer, Xiao Tianyao was not nervous and responded calmly: "Yes, I killed the three martial gods of the Central Empire!"
This was a fact that cannot be changed. No matter how Xiao Tianyao explains it, it would be useless. It would be better to admit it generously and directly. Anyway, the Central Empire cannot ask him, the prince of the East, to pay for his life just because he killed three martial gods.
Although the Eastern Country was a vassal state of the Central Empire, it was not weak enough to be dominated by the Central Empire.
"Good, good, good, Xiao Tianyao, you are so brave. You dare to kill even the martial gods of my Central Empire. Aren\'t you afraid of death?" The Emperor didn\'t expect Xiao Tianyao to admit it so readily, and he was a little angry.
If Xiao Tianyao\'s matter was resolved in half a day, how can we divert everyone\'s attention to the Third Prince\'s deception?
This matter must be prolonged and attract the attention of all parties.
"It was because I was afraid of death that I killed those three. Your Majesty, when the three Martial Gods besieged me, I was not yet a Martial God." The three Martial Gods joined forces to bully an ordinary warrior who had not yet reached the level of Martial Gods. The Central Empire was shameless.
Three against one. And when they lose, they still have the nerve to ask for justice. Xiao Tianyao doesn\'t know what to say about the Emperor.
"What did you say?" The Emperor didn\'t believe it: "You were not a Martial God at that time?" If he was not a Martial God, how could he kill three Martial Gods at the same time?
"The Eldest Prince and the Eldest Son of the Hua Family can testify to this. I became the Martial Saint not long ago." This cannot be false. Not only did the Eldest Prince and the Eldest Son of the Hua Family see it with their own eyes, but it is also recorded on the Martial God Mountain.
Without waiting for the Emperor to ask questions, the Eldest Prince stood up and said: "Imperial Father, I can testify to this. When I fought with Xiao Tianyao on the battlefield, he was not a martial god."
"I can also testify to this. My eldest son told me about Xiao Tianyao, saying that he was not a Martial God at that time. He was forced to have no way out by the three Martial Gods of the Central Empire, so he killed them." The headmaster of the Hua Family also stepped forward and spoke for Xiao Tianyao at the right time.
The Hua Family has always shown that they value Xiao Tianyao very much during this period. If he doesn\'t speak up for him at this time, their previous efforts will be in vain.
The Hua Family spoke, and someone from the Lin Family also stood up and said: "I have fought against Xiao Tianyao before. He has indeed just been promoted to Martial Saint. I have also seen the registration of Martial God Mountain."
All the statements above can prove that Xiao Tianyao was just an ordinary warrior when he was three martial saints at that time, but……
This only proves that Xiao Tianyao was very powerful, but it does not erase the fact that he committed murder.
“You are not a martial god, so are you saying you\'re not responsible for killing three martial gods in my Central Empire?” The Emperor looked at the Eldest Prince, the Hua Family, and the Lin Family majestically, with dissatisfaction flashing in his eyes.
He can still understand the Eldest Prince and the Hua Family. Before Xiao Tianyao came to the Central Empire, these two people had been talking for Xiao Tianyao. But what about the Lin Family?
Could it be that Princess Xiao Tianyao was the daughter of the Lin family? But even the daughter of the Lin family would not go out of her way to help a prince from the East.
"Your Majesty, there are rules in the Martial God Mountain. Unless the person killed is heinous, the Martial God cannot take action against ordinary warriors. Three Martial Gods from the Central Empire attacked me without saying a word. I was just protecting myself." As for self-protection and killing, this was normal. He, an ordinary Martial God, could kill three Martial Gods, but it was pure luck. Do they think he can defeat three Martial Gods and escape calmly?
He was a human being, not an immortal, and didn\'t have that power.
"Are you saying that you are not at fault, and it is all my fault?" The Emperor was really angry at Xiao Tianyao\'s shamelessness. From what he said, the responsibility for this matter did not lie with him, but he was the victim.
"Your Majesty, I am just discussing the matter. At that time, I was just an ordinary warrior. Being able to kill three Martial Gods was purely a fluke. In addition, Your Majesty, don\'t you find it strange? I am just an ordinary warrior. No matter how lucky I am, I am not a rival of the Martial Gods." Xiao Tianyao readily accepted the Emperor\'s accusation but did not forget to raise a doubt.
The Emperor specially summoned him to the Central Empire for questioning, maybe because he was doubtful?
After all, it was very strange that an ordinary warrior could surpass the level and kill the Martial God, let alone kill three Martial Gods at the same time.
If this had not happened to him, he would not have believed it.
Sure enough, after Xiao Tianyao raised this suspicion, the Emperor no longer stared at him like a murderer, but asked: "At that time, was there anything unusual about the three martial gods?" If there were no accidents, how could three martial gods die at the hands of a small warrior?
At this point, no need to mention the Emperor, even the people of Martial God Mountain cannot understand, let alone accept it.
If ordinary warriors can kill Martial Gods, were they still qualified to be called Gods?
"I don\'t know. I had no intention of thinking about this at that time. The pressure of the three Martial Gods was too strong. I just focused on resisting the three Martial Gods." Of course, Xiao Tianyao would not tell the truth. His current identity was Murderer, so won\'t he asking for death if he talks so much?
"Really?" The Emperor naturally didn\'t believe Xiao Tianyao, but he couldn\'t find any evidence.
The bodies of the three martial gods were all blown to pieces. Even if they were still there, nothing could be found after nearly a year.
"I dare not deceive the Emperor." The pressure of the three martial gods was almost unbearable for ordinary warriors. He was not wrong in saying this.
However, the Emperor did not believe Xiao Tianyao. He looked at Xiao Tianyao carefully and mentioned it casually: "I heard from the Seventh Prince that they once stayed in a stone town in the East. At that time, when the Martial God accompanying him arrived in the town, he seemed to have lost his martial arts?"
"There is a poison in Stone Town that is odorless and colorless. The poison is harmless to ordinary people, but it will cause those with high martial arts skills to lose their martial arts. However, the effect of the drug is not long, it will only take about 2 or 3 hours. The Seventh Prince and his party must have been infected by this poison." Xiao Tianyao had already been prepared for what happened in Stone Town. The Emperor couldn\'t find anything even if he went to investigate.
"After what happened to the Seventh Prince, I sent troops to surround Stone Town, destroy the poisonous weeds, and remove the people in the town. Now, the Stone Town is just the East\'s garrison." Xiao Tianyao eliminated the possibility of the Emperor going to investigate. He didn\'t give him a chance to check.
He has already erased everything in Stone Town. If the people in the Central Empire have the ability, they can go and investigate it. If they don’t, then stop babbling in front of him…….
