After Taken as a Prisoner of War, the Vampire Queen Turned Me Into a Vampire and Made Me Her Daughter

Chapter 87: Release

Chapter 87: Release

You A flash of astonishment flitted past Gorms scornful eyes as Ji Bais hand firmly held onto his blade.

It is quite brazen to draw your blade in the presence of the tribunal court dont you think.

Damn it Gorm abandoned his long sword and drew out the dagger hidden at his waist.

Clang! With the swift and terrifying flash from a sword the dagger was knocked away. A snow-white blade was at Gorms neck less than a fraction away from touching his skin.

Wh

This crazy buffoon is not an ordinary character.

The knight on the tribunal court revealed a meaningful gaze as he looked at Ji Bai.

Gorm you mustnt be rude! Stand down! Said Lan Yu in a berating manner.

Yes. Gorms face was black as he saluted and returned to Lan Yus side.

Ji Bai looked at the angry-looking Lan Yu on the stage and clicked his tongue.

If this tool truly had the intention to stop his lackey shouldnt he have done so earlier? A lackey certainly would not have the courage to publicly silence someone in front of the tribunal court; Not unless he was instructed to do so from someone behind the scenes.

Gorm had retreated back to Lan Yus side and was shooting a trepid glance at Ji Bai on the execution stage.

The glance shooting out from under that tin cans helmet resembled a blade about to pierce through his entire body.

Such a horrifying glance. Is there a monster wrapped inside the plate armor??

For a moment the audience sunk into a strange silence.

Mr. Yu what is the crime for disrupting the order of the tribunal court and attempting to intervene in its decision-making process? Spoke Ji Yue who was usually a person of few words. Like water flowing past a silver bell her voice was sweet-sounding yet plain.

The crime is equivalent to drawing out a sharp knife while meeting the temple bishop. The punishment for that is death without pardon. Responded the goatee knight at her side faintly.

Ji Yue put away the booklet and tilted her head while indolently lying back on her seat.

You wish for me to show you some respect?

As a young lady from the main branch of the Fire Lance clan even the present president has to be somewhat respectful to her when they meet. Im afraid that Section Head Lan Yus position is still a bit too inadequate to have my young missus give him some respect. Said the goatee knight coldly as he placed his sword back into its scabbard.

My apologies this isnt what this humble self meant. No matter how humiliated and resentful he felt in his heart Lan Yu could only grit his teeth and endure.

Wretched woman Just you wait! You wont be happy for too long. There definitely will be a day where you have to please me in bed and beg me for mercy!

All of you here are influential figures in the border town that have thrived together in this place. However I want to ask all of you to abide by the rules of this tribunal court and show me some respect. Ji Yue propped her head up her gaze disinterestedly sweeping past the officials who all had a deathly-white complexion on their faces.

Her voice wasnt loud even carrying traces of weakness and laziness in it yet it managed to take the breath out of everyone present.

While the argument is satisfactory it is not enough to clear them of their crimes. Ji Yue said indifferently as she looked at Ji Bai.

Does your excellency still require witnesses? Very well I was at the scene at the time when the incident happened. I wonder if this humble self is qualified to be a witness for this case?

After looking face-to-face at Ji Bai for a moment Ji Yue stood up.

The trial this time will henceforth end here. The death convicts will be temporarily released and will enter a period of observation.

Below the stage Landi and the other frontline knights had fallen into a trance.

Foreseeing that they wouldnt leave the execution field alive they had long resolved themselves to have their heads chopped off. They didnt expect that theyd actually be able to survive??

What are you in a daze for? Hurry up and thank the judges. Ji Bai patted Landis head.

Oh! Thank you thank you your excellency! And thank you sire. Landi hurriedly expressed his thanks to Ji Yue and then turned towards Ji Bai in an extremely gratified manner.

Theres no need for gratitude. Just continue to be a competent knight in the future and that will be the greatest thanks you can give me.

Yes!

In the end the tribunal court had given the masses a result they could never have imagined.

Lan Yu had kept a dark face from beginning till the end. Not only had this trial gone in a different direction than the result he had confidently expected he had also lost a formidable military asset. It was impossible for his complexion to be normal after suffering such consecutive losses.

However this wasnt the worst part. If the frontline knights had been found to be innocent the public would quickly begin to be suspicious and wonder who exactly was the saboteur behind the scene. It would soon be impossible to conceal the truth.

In that case I can only use this unwise strategy I still have a great future ahead of me; I cant let myself get stuck inside this tiny border town!Rêạd new chapters at novelhall.com
