607: Chapter 61 The Primordial Void

"By the way, Bolu, you're a native of this planet, right?"

"Do you know if there's any good food around here?"

Lu Chen turned and asked.

"Replying to Master, I do."

"However, those are all Mortal foods. I used to come with my family to taste these mundane flavors."

Bolu replied respectfully.

"That's perfect. You lead the way today then."

"By the way, I can actually help you resurrect your family. Are you sure you want to wait longer?"

Lu Chen asked casually as he walked.

"Yes, Master."

"If my family returns now, I'm afraid I'll be distracted and unable to focus on my revenge."

"I must kill that bastard with my own hands and let him taste all the pain I've endured all these years!"

Bolu's voice was low and firm.

"As you wish."

Lu Chen didn't say anything more.

"Look, Master, these Mortals are celebrating their regained freedom."

"There's a fair going on just ahead. Would you like to take a look?"

Bolu raised his hand and pointed forward.

"Sure. I've been in seclusion for seventy-three years; it's indeed time to come out for some fresh air."

Lu Chen murmured softly.

Hearing this, Bolu only smiled helplessly.

He always felt...

...that his master often said things that left people bewildered.

It was as if a mere few years were incredibly precious to him.

With his master's current Realm, hundreds of millions of kalpas should be but a fleeting moment.

Yet, he always lamented wasting a few months or years.

Bolu wouldn't know.

Lu Chen's true age was actually just a little over a hundred.

His previous life might have long experienced the vicissitudes of eternity.

But in this life.

His state of mind was already completely different from his previous life.

"Young man, want to try your luck? How about catching a fish with this paper net?"

An old man greeted him with a smile.

"Sure."

Lu Chen immediately agreed.

At this moment, he was immersing himself in the mundane atmosphere of the Mortals.

Enjoying a long-lost sense of ease.

He feasted, tasting all kinds of snacks;

He lingered at various stalls, playing all the mini-games;

He even played around with a group of children.

But just then.

A majestic and overbearing voice resounded across the entire planet once again...

It was the very same voice that had pronounced his death sentence three days ago!

A spatial portal suddenly appeared in front of Lu Chen.

"The three-day period is up."

"You either step into this door and go to the Tribunal to face justice, or you perish along with this planet!"

Lu Chen had almost forgotten.

There was still such an existence deliberately trying to cause him trouble.

To him.

Seventy-three years had passed in a flash, as he had been focused solely on improving his strength.

He actually hadn't had the time to pay attention to such a clown.

"No need for force. We will go."

Lu Chen still responded calmly, then stepped into the portal.

He didn't hesitate in the slightest.

The three followers behind him followed closely.

When they stepped out of the portal.

They were already inside an extremely grand hall.

This hall.

Was over a thousand meters long, five hundred meters wide, and fifty meters high, with a magnificent Aura.

At the very front of the hall was a long table, with seven seats behind it.

The seat in the center was particularly ornate and noble.

Not only that.

Countless projection devices were set up around the hall.

On each device, the figures of a group of people were projected...

They were the observers of this trial.

Clearly, Lu Chen was currently standing in a Tribunal.

As soon as his figure appeared.

The entire hall suddenly lit up with brilliant light.

Seven Judges.

Also appeared in their respective seats.

Lu Chen's gaze calmly swept over everyone, instantly discerning their backgrounds:

The one in the center was a 72-dimensional Transcendent Holy Master level powerhouse;

The other six were all Super-Dimensional Lord level existences.

"I wonder why the Lord Supreme Judge is so insistent on taking my life?"

Lu Chen directed his gaze toward the Judge's bench and asked.

"Your crimes are heinous!"

"First, relying on power, you forcibly seized others' homes, causing countless people to be displaced; then, you openly defied the Supreme Judge's orders, showing utter disregard for the law!"

"These two points alone are enough to sentence you to death!"

A Lay Judge shouted coldly.

This person was indeed a Super-Dimensional Lord.

Lu Chen couldn't help but chuckle.

"I am but an ordinary person with slightly better luck, who happens to have a powerful butler."

"Simply taking over a planet, logically speaking, shouldn't be worth disturbing a Transcendent Holy Master and six Super-Dimensional Lords."

"To stoop so low as to bicker with a small character like me is truly beneath your status."

He still had a smile on his face, his tone indifferent.

"Speak, what is the real reason?"

"At least let me die with understanding before you kill me."

"You think our judgment of you is unfair?"

The Lay Judge smiled coldly.

"We are acting on the orders of the Trans-Dimensional Lord."

"The Trans-Dimensional Lord is the Heavenly Dao of this Void Realm, and we are the angels acting on behalf of heaven."

"Besides that, what other reason is needed?"

Lu Chen carefully observed everyone.

Wanting to distinguish whether they were acting on their own or being instructed by someone.

In an instant, he understood...

These people had no idea they were being used as pawns.

"In that case, do as you please."

Lu Chen stood with his hands behind his back, his expression leisurely, looking like he was calmly accepting death.

The people in the observer seats.

Were all Divine Believers from the Holy Star.

Precisely those whom Lu Chen had expelled.

The script for this trial.

Was originally intended to let the Judges "uphold justice" for these believers.

"They clearly could have just attacked and killed me, or at least tried, yet they insist on putting on this show here."

"There must be some kind of power restraining them, making them afraid to act openly."

Lu Chen thought to himself.

He had already explored this Void Realm thoroughly.

There was only one Void Emperor Realm powerhouse here.

If he wasn't mistaken.

That powerhouse was the mastermind behind this farce.

But what exactly were they wary of?

Why did they have to put on such a pose and perform this clumsy play?

Lu Chen really wanted to figure this out.

"Are you pleading guilty and accepting your punishment?"

A Judge asked coldly.

"Naturally, I plead guilty."

"I did indeed seize their home, and you should indeed punish me."

Lu Chen's smile widened.

He wanted to see.

What kind of expressions these people would have when they discovered they couldn't harm him in the slightest.

"You have harmed all living beings; your crimes deserve death!"

"I, Rencona Falark, the Supreme Judge of this Void Realm, hereby sentence you to death!"

Until now.

The Presiding Judge finally spoke, reading the verdict in a cold voice.

A burst of cheering suddenly erupted from the observer seats.

That bastard who dared to defy the gods was finally going to be punished!
