Chapter 471 Eternal Troubles No More!
"What do you mean?"
Wu Tianlian's eyebrows slightly furrowed as he asked in a deep voice.
The gazes of the elders who supported Wu Tianlian unanimously fell on Ye Shengnan.
They were all curious–what was Ye Shengnan really up to?
Ye Shengnan took out a document directly and placed it on the table. "Before that, you can take a look at this document first."
Upon hearing this, Wu Tianlian picked up the document with a puzzled face. When he opened it and saw the contents, his frown deepened.
"Elder Wu, what's wrong?"
Seeing Wu Tianlian's expression, the other elders felt a sense of foreboding and took the document from Wu Tianlian's hands.
After seeing the proof in the document, their faces almost simultaneously stiffened.
Ye Shengnan chuckled, "As you've just seen, after our investigation into Qin Chuan these past few days, we have discovered that the Qin Family of Jiangcheng is a branch of the Qin Family."
"Moreover, we've found another clue: Qin Chuan is not the biological son of Qin Jiang. We have good reason to suspect that Qin Jiang may very well be the son of Emperor Qin Qing!"
"These are remnants of the Qin Family. To balance the major forces and stabilize the Divine Land, our best course of action is to execute Qin Chuan."
"Then, we'll find a way to prevent Qin Jiang from emerging and thoroughly nip it in the bud."
"Only in this way can we minimize the disaster."
This statement caused an uproar at the scene.
"I agree!"
The people from the seven major families of the Capital City, along with those aligned with them, expressed their positions one after another.
Seeing this scene, Wu Tianlian and his companions' expressions darkened.
None of them had expected that Ye Shengnan and his people would be so well-prepared, secretly investigating the Qin Family's affairs in such detail.
This was extremely disadvantageous for them.
"We disagree!"
Wu Tianlian immediately said, "Isn't this decision a bit too reckless?"
"Just because of that reason, you want to deal with Qin Chuan?"
"Besides, Qin Chuan has already been captured and placed in the death cell for treason. Even if he has any relation to the Qin Family, he can no longer pose any threat. Right now, he's nothing but a criminal!"
The elders standing with Wu Tianlian also expressed their opinions one after another, rejecting Ye Shengnan's earlier suggestion.
Ye Shengnan emphasized, "We must consider the bigger picture!" Enjoy exclusive adventures from My Virtual Library Empire
"That so-called 'bigger picture' is nothing more than an excuse of yours. In my opinion, you are worried that Qin Jiang will win at the Five Halls Competition and obtain the Tianlong Special Pardon Order to release Qin Chuan. That's why you've come up with this scheme."
Wu Tianlian directly exposed their hypocrisy, then said, "Qin Chuan has a special status, the former Grand Hall Master of Dragon Hall. If you take action against Qin Chuan now, if Dragon Hall learns of this, it will surely cause turmoil."
"By that time, if the Divine Land is in chaos, can you bear the consequences? Do you want to repeat the tragedy of the past?"
"A mere Qin Jiang wants to win the title in the Five Halls Competition?"
"Do you think we have no one left in Heavenly Temple, Earth Hall, Martial Arts Department, War Division? Aside from these four halls, there are many other forces' geniuses participating. Whether Qin Jiang can survive the first round is already a question, and he still dreams of winning the title?"
Ye Shengnan said coldly, "The Qin Family is already a thing of the past. Since it's trash, let it rot completely in the mud to prevent any trouble that might cause a catastrophe!"
"For the sake of the peace of the common people and the stability of the nation, we must execute Qin Chuan, the catalyst! Anything and anyone related to the Qin Family should be completely destroyed. This is the course of action that minimizes losses!"
Ye Shengnan spoke with an unyielding attitude, firm in his stance.
"You're making an argument from false premises!"
"Qin Chuan once helped resolve many dark affairs for the major forces in the shadows, and his contributions to the Divine Land are no less than anyone present. Is it appropriate for you to turn your backs on him now?"
"Precisely for the sake of the people, we must not rashly meddle with Qin Chuan!"
Wu Tianlian still opposed!
Qin Chuan had already made great sacrifices, and he absolutely could not let anything happen to Qin Chuan!
The other elders on Wu Tianlian's side also voiced their opposition at this time.@@novelbin@@
During the fierce argument between both sides, Elder Song, seated in the main position, slowly spoke up, "Enough, quiet down!"
"This is a council meeting, not a marketplace!"
"This isn't a place for you to squabble!"
Wu Tianlian looked towards Elder Song, "Elder Song..."
Before Wu Tianlian could finish his sentence, Ye Shengnan interjected, "For fairness' sake, let's all take a vote here."
"Those in favor of executing Qin Chuan, raise your hand!"
What do you think?
