When the Prophet saw that the Speaker still had not responded, his expression alternating between grave and relaxed, he assumed the man's injuries had flared up again and thought little of it.
It never occurred to him that the Speaker might be wary. After all, even if Qin Mingshen himself had come today, the Speaker would never have lost his composure like this. It could only be his injuries.
Since the Speaker said nothing, the Prophet simply stepped forward.
"The Tribunal will not tolerate sacrilege! This man has openly disrupted the proceedings. Seize him!"

The Federation officers unleashed the Blood Qi Martial Arts technique [Spear] without hesitation. Scarlet Blood Qi ignited their long sabers, and they slashed fiercely, sending crimson blade arcs through the air.
Countless vicious slashes rained toward the execution platform. Blood Qi crisscrossed the air as though it would tear heaven and earth apart.
