"After one year and four months of investigation, the Tax and Finance Department collected 400,706,524 pieces of evidence."
"The stolen assets, the lifeblood wrung from the people, totaled eighty-six million when converted into Divine Path incense offerings and merit-the equivalent of a thousand years of output from six ordinary great thousand worlds!"
"The evidence is conclusive."
"Forty-one relevant laws were violated: thirty-five ordinary laws, five major laws, and one fundamental world law."
"The accomplice, E Wanpo, Tribe Chief of the Crocodile Dragon Tribe, is hereby sentenced to 1,400 years of nascent great thousand-grade spirit imprisonment."
"Execute the sentence immediately!"
The Crocodile Dragon Tribe.
One of the Demon Tribe's 72 Divine Clans in the Primordial World.
Ranked fifty-seventh, they excelled at aquatic combat and physical combat, following the Demon Tribe's traditional body-focused path.
Their strongest member was their Tribe Chief-the fellow who had just been sentenced, the Crocodile Dragon Tribe's chief, a Demon Tribe Great Sage and Third Tier Primordial Origin Golden Immortal.
E Wanpo.
His 1,400 years of spirit imprisonment could not compare with the sentence given to the first Primordial Origin Golden Immortal in the Primordial World to experience this treatment, namely Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal.
More properly, Long-Eared Dingguang Joyful Buddha, a Fourth Tier Primordial Origin Golden Immortal, whose sentence of 4,200 years was longer.
Still, 1,400 years of spirit imprisonment.
Among sentences of the same kind, it was hardly a short term!
When E Wanpo got out, since his cultivation was one tier higher than Long-Eared Dingguang Joyful Buddha's and his sentence was somewhat shorter to begin with...
He might not end up like Long-Eared Dingguang Joyful Buddha was expected to.
The latter would probably rank at the very bottom of the Fifth Tier of Primordial Origin Golden Immortals when he emerged.
But E Wanpo would certainly suffer
