"Ying Fang, the charge of insubordination against Lu Chongdao does not stand," Emperor Wushang said calmly as he looked at Ying Fang.
Ying Fang's heart felt as dead as ashes, knowing he had been used as a pawn and discarded.
He was still a Law Officer, but once the case of Lu Chongdao concluded, he would be punished.
Although there was still an accusation of embezzlement against Lu Chongdao, he had no inclination to continue laying out the laws.
He also realized that using the Nine Court Immortal Law against Ding Huan was futile.
He had been heavily penalized. As long as his family handled things well, there was still a chance for him.
If he offended Ding Huan further, it wouldn't just be a matter of cracking his Purple Mansion or destroying a few meridians; it might even destroy both his Purple Mansion and Dantian.
Had it not been for Star Lord Wucheng's intervention just then, he would have already been sentenced to death.
