The prime minister was struck speechless on the spot...
He had been a man famed for a tongue that bloomed lotus flowers; otherwise, he would never have sat upon the golden chair of the prime minister.
But Lin Su's chain of questions had been clear and logical.
He simply had no answer.
For one reason alone: from the moment Lin Su openly admitted that he was from another domain, he had opened a battlefield far beyond everyone's expectations.
In everyone's understanding, Lin Su would surely resort to every possible argument and would never admit his deepest secret—a secret that, once exposed, would make him intolerable to the entire Immortal Realm Great World.
All their preparations had focused on tearing apart Lin Su's defenses. They had never extended into the territory of what came after an admission.
Yet Lin Su had admitted it!
The moment he did, all the court officials' preparations came to nothing. In this field their thinking had never reached, they could only respond in haste.
"As for Prime Minister's third accusation—disrupting the Immortal Dynasty—I must argue my case!" Lin Su sighed softly. "I have been in court for exactly one year, and in that time, I have done only five things: investigated the Haoyuan Sect, exposing its conspiracy; captured Jiang Lie, leading to Jiang Lie's death and Dao dissolution; served as envoy to White Jade Capital, bringing about the Xihe Agreement; resisted the foreign invasion of the Violet Qi Literary Dynasty, saving three hundred million people of Xihe from fire and water; and traveled far to the Reincarnation Sect, eradicating the lingering disaster of the Infinite Interstice... Which of these acts disrupted the Immortal Dynasty? Which one made Prime Minister hate me so bitterly that he must put me to death?"
The entire hall was stunned...
