The Man In Rage novel Chapter 1483

Hundreds of people were kneeling before the courts.

Their cries of sorrow filled the air and reverberated across the heavens.

The God of War got to his feet, gazed down upon these men and women, and said coolly. "Lv Hua has committed a grievous and unforgiveable crime. There is no place for mercy in the eyes of justice. We cannot spare him even if we wish to. You don't have to do this. Please go home."

With a wave of his hand, Ye Qing-Tian gestured for these people to leave.

But Lv Zi-Ming and the others weren't going to be satisfied with that.

Lv Zi-Ming looked up and stared the God of War in the eye.

"What about Ye Fan? Doesn't he deserve death as well? My son might have been in the wrong, but he killed fewer than ten men in Jiangdong. What about Ye Fan? He killed more than a hundred men at West

Lake alone. What about the members of the Lv clan? Ye Fan's killed hundreds of Chinese comrades. If Lv Hua deserves to die for his crime, then Ye Fan cannot be spared from his as well,” said Lv Zi-Ming as he bared his teeth furiously.

"That's right. Ye Fan's committed a graver offense when it comes to the Jiangbei martial arts circle. As the leader of the Chinese martial arts circle, you have to exact justice on our behalf. But if you are willing to spare Lv Hua's life, the Jiangbei martial arts circle is also willing to relent and cease our demands for Ye Fan's life. Doing anything else will reveal War God Castle as unjust and biased. How are you going to command the respect of the rest of the martial arts circle then?”

The Jiangbei martial artists standing behind Lv Zi-Ming began to raise their voices furiously after the latter was done speaking.

"That's right. How can you kill Lv Hua but not punish Ye Fan? We won't stand for that! The Jiangbei martial arts circle won't stand forthat!"

Before War God Castle, the men and women of Jiangbei spoke in unison and pleaded for the God of War to release Lv Hua.

"Well...about that..." The judge appeared at a momentary loss as he was assailed by the demands of the crowd.

Sword Saint stepped forward and spoke quietly to Ye Qing-Tian. "Qing-Tian, there is reason to what they are saying. Lv Hua might be the cause of the Jiangbei incident, but we cannot deny the devastation that Ye Fan has caused the Jiangbei martial arts circle. There are many martial artists in Jiangbei demanding that Ye Fan pay for his crime with his life. Sparing Lv Hua's life will appease these martial artists. They will cease their demands for Ye Fan's life too. It's the best solution that will please everyone."

The compromise was the best solution for both parties.

Ye Qing-Tian nodded. "You make a lot of sense. But will Ye Fan agree to that?"

Sword Saint shook his head. "I got Tang Hao to sound Ye Fan out. He won't budge. But you're friends with Ye Fan and have helped give him a leg up in the martial arts circle. Ye Fan might not listen to other people but he might just listen to you."

"Are you saying that I should try and persuade him to change his mind again?" Ye Qing-Tian frowned.

"That's right. That is our only solution. Otherwise, it's going to be tough for War God Castle to appease the Jiangbei martial arts circle," said Sword Saint.

Ye Qing-Tian hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Alright, I'll try."

Having said that, Ye Qing-Tian called Ye Fan while everyone watched.

"Ye Fan, Sword Saint, the Heavenly Grandmaster and I have conducted the trial for Lv Hua. He has pleaded guilty to all his crimes. He appears remorseful and wishes to repent for his misdeeds. You don't have to worry though. We know the terrible things that he's done. He coveted the assets and spouse of our dead warrior. That is absolutely unforgivable. We have discussed and concluded that he should be sentenced to a lifetime imprisonment. He will never step out of jail alive. What do you think of this sentence?"

Ye Qing-Tian was a wise and wily man.

He wanted to save Lv Hua's life but instead of saying so, he beat around the bush and said that Lv Hua would be sentenced to a lifetime imprisonment.

It would seem that he wasn't trying to help Lv Hua at all.

"Qing-Tian definitely knows how to get the job done!"

Tang Hao appeared impressed and gave the God of War a thumbs up discreetly.

He had tried to seek mercy for Lv Hua too, but it was clear that their different methods had produced different outcomes.

Lv Zi-Ming churned with anxiety when he
