Looking at the guy who stood up and pointed at his nose and scolded him, Chu Tian had a confused expression on his face.

Are you late? But Chu Tian clearly remembered that the jade slip only told him to come to attend the meeting today, but did not tell him the specific time.

That is to say, no matter it is morning, noon or afternoon, as long as Chu Tian comes over within today, it will not be considered late.

But Chu Tian looked around and seemed to understand something immediately, with a smile on his face.

I saw that the monks on the left were all sect elders and sect leaders.

And these people, with sneers on their lips and sarcastic eyes, looked at Chu Tian, ​​their eyes full of arrogance.

The monks on the right are all ministers of the Wuming royal family.

The ministers stood there, seemingly expressionless, but there was a faint smile on the corners of their mouths, as if they were suppressing a smile.

But the object of their ridicule seemed not to be Chu Tian, ​​but to the monks from the opposite sect.

In an instant, Chu Tian understood something, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

I'm afraid only the monks from this sect are still kept in the dark and don't know the truth.

Chu Tian was not in a hurry and looked at the man with a smile.

"Fellow Taoist, have you misunderstood? The jade slip did not write the time. It only said that I should come here today. And I did come today. How can I say I am late?"

When the man heard this, he immediately looked at Chu Tian with wide eyes, but there was no surprise in his eyes, but only anger.

"You fart!"

He roared at Chu Tian, ​​and without further verbosity, he directly took out his jade slip from the storage ring, took out the imperial edict that Xia Yun had sent to him, and then read it out loud in front of Chu Tian.

"This Emperor...,...asks Zhao Shuo, the head of the Juyu Sect, to attend the Wuming Conference in the Imperial Palace tomorrow at midnight....Anyone who violates this will be punished as treason!"

After saying that, Zhao Shuo looked at Chu Tian and threw the jade slip in his hand directly to Chu Tian.

"See for yourself!"

Chu Tian took the jade slip in mid-air, inspected it carefully, and finally nodded towards Zhao Shuo.

But before Chutian could give any explanation, Zhao Shuo once again raised his hand and pointed at Chutian.

"Violators will be punished as treason. According to the laws of our Wuming Kingdom, those who commit treason should be implicated in the nine tribes and their bodies should be hung on the city gates for ten days!"

Having said this, almost everyone's eyes turned to Chu Tian.

However, Zhao Shuo obviously hadn't finished speaking yet, and he immediately continued.

"However, the behavior of the pavilion master obviously cannot be regarded as violating the empress's original intention, but coming an hour late is already a big mistake."

After hearing this, everyone understood the meaning of Zhao Shuo's words.

Obviously Zhao Shuo also knew that it was impossible for Chu Tian to be directly sentenced to death for treason, but he did not want to let Chu Tian go so easily.

So after sneering for a while, he said harshly.

"In my opinion, the punishment should be lenient and the pavilion master's cultivation should be abolished."

Hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but cast disbelieving glances at Zhao Shuo.

Abolish a monk's cultivation? For a monk, the most important thing is his cultivation. Abandoning a monk's cultivation is simply more uncomfortable than killing him directly!

However, from the perspective of the nine implicated clans, it can be considered a lenient sentence.
