Chapter 299: The Elders Meet
The Shrine of Light is located at the rear of the temple and is normally protected by the Templars.
This time, the trial of Li Qing was held at the altar, which was also a rare day when the forbidden land was opened.
It's just that even so, only representatives of some big forces can enter the altar to watch the judgment. Ordinary people had no chance to get close to this place, and at most they could only wait for the verdict outside the temple.
Representatives of the major trade unions in the Aslan Continent, officials of the Empire, representatives of the Family Chamber of Commerce, and powerful people above the honorable level were all invited, and they had the right to witness this divine punishment that was bound to shock the mainland.
It can be said that today people with status and status from all over the empire have gathered here, and the scene is magnificent and huge.
The so-called altar is actually a high platform similar to an altar, with a square platform the size of a basketball court in the middle, and a circular platform about ten meters in diameter, and the entire area is divided into three levels.
Those who came to witness the trial could only stand on the ground at the lowest level, watching from a distance of 100 meters from the high platform.
The execution was scheduled for noon, when the sun rose to its highest position.
At this moment, there are still nearly two hours before the trial, but the representatives of the major forces have already rushed to the Temple of Light one after another, waiting in the meeting room early to enter, and exchanging information by the way.
"Elder Lin Fa, do you know anything about what happened?" A middle-aged man in a pale gold alchemy robe nodded to another old man in a magic robe as a greeting and asked in a low voice.
This person is Jin Minghuan, who attended on behalf of the Alchemy Union this time, and he is also the deacon elder of the Alchemy Union at the headquarters of the Imperial Capital, and he has the absolute right to speak within the entire trade union.
The magician he called Elder Lin Fa was the representative of the Magic Guild, and also had absolute power within the Guild.
Today's matter is even more serious than the selection of the Holy Maiden of the Blessing Ceremony, and the identity of each representative is one of the best in their own power.
It could be called a meeting of elders!
Lin Fan held his beard with one hand and shook his head slowly.
"This incident happened suddenly, and my magic union didn't hear a word about it."
The elder of the Alchemy Guild took a deep breath and turned his head to look at the two men dressed as martial artists on the other side.
These two are representatives of the warrior union and the mercenary union, and they also shook their heads at the moment to indicate that they don't know anything.
The major trade unions didn't even have the slightest news in advance, and Elder Li Qing of the Bright Temple didn't know what he had done, and it was really good to be ruined and cause such a big sensation overnight.
Since everyone didn't know the inside story, the elders stopped talking, but sat quietly on the sofa and rested.
The parlor was quiet, and even though there were quite a few people seated, there was not the slightest noise, at most whispering greetings when a new delegate walked in.
Three more people were invited in by the clergy, and everyone in the parlor turned their heads to look at them, and their eyes widened in surprise.
"I wish President, Elder Yao." The elders of the Alchemy Guild were the first to stand up and greeted the visitors.
Zhu Hong, the president of the Assassin Guild and a powerhouse of the first order of the emperor rank, actually attended in person, and brought Yao Wenqing, the chief elder of the guild...
Perverse! It's abnormal!
The presidents of the major trade unions can be regarded as the top powerhouses in the mainland, generally speaking, these people focus on cultivation and rarely appear in front of the world, just like the Bright God Monarch. Today, Zhu Hong will be accompanied by Elder Yao, so it is no wonder that the other elders were surprised.
"Elder Kim."
Yao Wenqing nodded at Jin Minghuan, and also returned the salute to the other people who greeted them one by one, with an indifferent expression and no mood fluctuations.
Elder Yao's personality has always been like this, as an assassin, she has always been cold, and today is nothing special, but everyone present is all human spirits, and they can see a trace of uneasiness in her eyes.
Perverse! It's even more perverse!
Many people secretly exchanged glances and guessed the truth of this.
Yao Wenqing was indeed a little anxious in his heart. Although the Assassin Guild only took on the mission as usual, it was an indisputable fact that they had been involved with Li Qing. In the past, they wouldn't care about anything other than the mission goal, and they wouldn't care about the follow-up after the mission was completed, but this time it was different.
The Bright Gods were all shocked, although they had voluntarily given up the mission before, but how dare they do anything has not happened!
Not to mention the goal of that mission...
Zhu Hong appeared here today because he had the heart to make amends to the Temple of Light, and by the way, he knocked on the girl's identity.
It was Rose who came with the president and elders, and as a person in the matter, he remembered that night vividly and unforgettable.
"I don't know if the president will come in person, and the old man will greet you on behalf of the president of the Magic Guild. If I had known earlier that you would be here today, the president would have dropped his important business and rushed to talk to you. ”
Lin Fa also stood up and walked over, gave Zhu Hong a standard mage salute, and said politely.
Everyone knows that the Magic Guild and the Assassin Guild are not in tune, and at this time, Lin Fa said this politely, and everyone probably understands what kind of mood he is in his heart. I'm afraid that he is also a little tentative, curious about the reason why Zhu Hong will come in person.
Zhu Hong glanced at Lin Fa, hummed lukewarmly, and then walked directly to the empty sofa on the other side and sat down, with two words written on his face: Gao Leng.
Rao is Lin Fan was unhappy and didn't say more, although the person in front of him was younger than him, his status and strength were higher than him, so there was really no need to greet him.
Seeing that Lin Fa didn't ask anything, the other delegates who had been staring at this side all withdrew their gazes, and only secretly paid attention to the three Assassin Guild members.
The Assassin Guild definitely knew something, it just didn't want to expose it.
So someone turned their attention to another representative of the family, trying to dig up some news from him.
This time, it was none other than Chu Yufei's father, Chu Fuqin, who came on behalf of the Chu family.
"Mr. Chu, why didn't you see Your Excellency the Holy Maiden?" The Xiao family came to Chu Fuqin, who had been sitting in the corner without saying a word, and asked.
Chu Yufei is a saint of light, he, as a father, should know something.
It's okay not to mention this, Chu Fuqin, who was lowering his head in a pensive state, was in a state of confusion in his heart, and he was startled when he suddenly heard the voice coming from in front of him.
The Xiao family raised their eyebrows, and a hint of discoloration crossed their eyes.
Chu Fuqin's reaction today was a little abnormal, if he said that he didn't know anything, he was afraid that no one would believe it.
On the surface, he maintained calmness, but in his heart he was extremely frightened, and Chu Fuqin felt that he was about to go crazy.
After Taiwen lost contact, Li Qing had no movement, and two partners were caught in a row, so what will happen to them?
