Chapter 53: Convinced
Just when all the immortals thought the issue was about to be settled, Sun Wukong’s alert eyes shifted, as if he had thought of something, he suddenly called out, "Your Majesty, there are still doubts in this case, please allow Old Sun to inquire clearly."
All the Immortal Officers and Divine Generals were extremely astonished. At this stage of the proceedings, the situation between Sun Wukong and Xiao Zhen was practically do or die, so why would he still want to extricate the other party?
Yang Chan and Ne Zha, standing nearby, were also very surprised and looked at Sun Wukong, eager to know what he was planning to do.
Xiao Zhen was even more confused, momentarily forgetting his despair, no longer roaring in anger.
The magnificent Lingxiao Treasure Hall fell into a moment of silence.
Eventually, the Jade Emperor’s gaze fell, and he asked softly, "What are the doubts?"
Standing at the foot of the great hall, Sun Wukong stood upright and spoke righteously, "Your Majesty, if the Golden Mansion Star Lord intended to murder the Wood Treasury Star Lord, how could he possibly leave such a significant loophole?
Regarding this letter alone, first of all, we are immortals, so why would he specifically use paper that could easily leave behind evidence?
Secondly, a simple fire could burn the letter completely, so why use a perpetual lamp to burn it?
Finally, after the letter was thrown into the perpetual lamp, it surprisingly didn’t turn completely to ashes, leaving such obvious traces.
