Doomsday, Let's Open A Restaurant -
Chapter 320: The Judgment Begins
Chapter 320: The Judgment Begins
With a thousand fingers pointing at it, the Ancient Martial Judgment Hall was suddenly thrust into the spotlight.
Under public pressure, the Magic Capital Base finally stepped forward.
At this moment, Xiao Feng had already become a well-known figure nationwide.
In the face of doomsday, the country always prioritized and protected tenth-tier evolutionaries, let alone Xiao Feng, who ranked first on the leaderboard.
So even if officials from the base came, they wouldn’t dare to do anything to Xiao Feng.
Meanwhile, the highest commanders of Qingyun Province and Jiangnan Province jointly pressured the Magic Capital Base to protect Xiao Feng.
This matter directly escalated to the highest court of the Magic Capital.
In the temporary residence of the Sun-Moon-Star Alliance, all the high-ranking members sat quietly.
"What’s the situation?"
Xiao Feng tapped the table with his fingers, breaking the brief silence.
"It’s as the Alliance Master expected. The people from the Star Sect and the Ancient Martial Judgment Hall have made contact!" Ye Hai said solemnly.
"So, some things might not necessarily be bad!"
Xiao Feng revealed a sinister smile.
"Some grudges can be resolved along the way!"
"Master, with the strength of our sect, I’m afraid we won’t be a match against the Ancient Martial Judgment Hall and the Star Sect if they join forces. You’re powerful alone, but we can’t keep up with you. We’re afraid we’ll be a burden to you!"
"With me here, what are you afraid of?"
Xiao Feng sneered coldly, confident in his words.
"Don’t forget what I do!"
Hearing this, all the high-ranking members of the sect present suddenly felt relieved.
Because they knew very well that Xiao Feng owned a restaurant where he sold food that could help people enhance their strength.
With the help of these foods, their collective advancement would no longer be a dream.
"Don’t go anywhere recently. With social media monitoring, the official judiciary will handle this matter. When they tell us what to do, we’ll do it. Understand?"
"Understood!"
Everyone present responded in unison.
"In addition..."
Xiao Feng’s final admonition.
"Keep an eye on the movements of the Star Sect."
...
...
After instructing everyone on everything, Xiao Feng left the sect and headed towards the city center of the Magic Capital Base.
The branch function was activated, and Xiao Feng was determined to open branches worldwide.
Of course, in Xiao Feng’s imagination, the function of the branches was more inclined to use the first instant teleportation ability.
This way, Xiao Feng could freely move around the world as he pleased.
In the Magic Capital, many places were left empty because the city was so well preserved. When the zombie wave broke out suddenly, many people had already died, leaving behind many empty spaces.
Unlike the Jiangnan Base, where the buildings and houses within the base were under the jurisdiction of the official base.
Wearing a mask, Xiao Feng easily found a suitable building to be used for the branch’s construction.
The boss only asked what it was for before taking the money and leaving.
To be honest, the price Xiao Feng offered was clearly higher than the market price.
Afraid that Xiao Feng would change his mind, the boss immediately left.
But this made it even more convenient for Xiao Feng.
Because now was a time of turmoil, Xiao Feng didn’t plan to open the branch in a big way. Upgrading it to a Level 1 branch for multi-location teleportation would be sufficient for now.
After the issue with the Ancient Martial Judgment Hall was completely resolved, Xiao Feng planned to officially operate the branch here.
Arriving in the empty building, Xiao Feng directly commanded the system, "Set up this place as a branch."
[Prompt: Would you like to consume 10 million energy to set this location as a branch?]
"Yes!"
[Prompt: Branch setup successful. Construction time is twenty-four hours. Would you like to consume energy to shorten construction time?]
"No!"
Xiao Feng promptly refused.
Anyway, there’s plenty of time, so there’s no need to waste these energy values.
Afterwards, Xiao Feng left the empty building.
But after Xiao Feng left, a sneaky figure immediately sneaked into the building.
Under Xiao Feng’s telekinetic perception, he had already detected this person.
It was easy to guess that this person was from the Ancient Martial Judgment Hall.
Even though he wore a mask.
But the martial world was filled with masters, their strength unquestionable after millennia of heritage.
It was just after the end of the world, when the laws ceased to be effective, that their traditionally suppressed mindset was released.
So they had become the despicable beings they were now.
Ignoring the person tracking him, Xiao Feng made his way back to the sect.
And just after Xiao Feng returned, Zhang De Bai hurried back.
"Master, it’s bad news. I heard from a reliable source that the official judiciary is likely to rule according to the regulations of the Ancient Martial Judgment Hall. If that happens, we’re doomed!"
"What if we lose?"
Xiao Feng asked confidently.
He didn’t need to guess what they would do.
"If we lose, the Ancient Martial Judgment Hall may dissolve our sect according to their rules and impose criminal penalties on relevant personnel."
"Humph! Does the Ancient Martial Judgment Hall have such great power now? Do they even have the right to dissolve other sects?"
Xiao Feng chuckled lightly.
"As for criminal penalties, once they’re in their hands, do you think it’s possible for us to survive?"
"But don’t worry."
Then Xiao Feng reassured them.
"No matter what punishment they give, I will ensure that you all safely leave this place. When we leave the Magic Capital Base, it’ll be up to fate."
...
...
Soon, the day of judgment arrived.
In cases like this where judgment was difficult, both sides could request lawyers to argue in court using the methods of peacetime.
This judgment gathered the attention of the entire nation.
Under public pressure, the Judgment Hall opened an official live broadcast.
As the time for judgment approached, fleets of crystal energy vehicles arrived from afar.
In recent days, Xiao Feng had invested five billion energy values into the Sun-Moon-Star Alliance to improve its economic conditions.
He also purchased several luxury crystal energy vehicles worth millions each.
These were equivalent to the Rolls-Royces and other luxury cars during peacetime.
The co-driver’s seat opened, and Ye Hai stepped out, then opened the rear door.
At this moment, a large crowd of reporters had gathered at the entrance of the Judgment Hall.
Ye Hai’s appearance immediately caused cheers from the crowd.
Because they knew that Ye Hai’s appearance meant Xiao Feng’s arrival.
As the car door opened, Xiao Feng, dressed in a black casual suit, slowly stepped out.
The moment his long legs stepped out of the car door, a sensation akin to that of a big star hit them.
At this moment, Xiao Feng’s entrance was just missing a background music.
After getting out of the car, Xiao Feng adjusted his collar, looked around, and walked into the Judgment Hall with a calm expression.
"Mr. Xiao Feng, what are your thoughts on this judgment?"
"Do you have confidence in winning this judgment?"
"Are you representing other martial sects in the Magic Capital along with the Ancient Martial Judgment Hall this time?"
...
Instantly, the reporters surged towards Xiao Feng.
"Sorry, for this judgment, I represent only our own sect, not anyone else!" Xiao Feng stopped and calmly addressed everyone.
"Also, do you all not think the outcome of this judgment is already decided?"
"Huh?"
Everyone was puzzled, full of question marks.
"Decided? But it hasn’t even started yet. How can it be decided?"
"Could it be that there’s no predetermined result in everyone’s minds?"
After saying this, Xiao Feng continued walking inside, leaving the bewildered reporters behind.
"To all those concerned about this matter, what’s in their hearts determines victory or defeat."
...
...
The people from the Magic Capital’s highest people’s judgment hall and the Ancient Martial Judgment Hall had already arrived.
As Xiao Feng slowly stepped into the hall of the Judgment Hall, everyone’s gaze fell on him.
Presided over by the head of Shaolin Temple, Zhi Chang.
Representatives from Wudang Sect, Zhang Shunmin.
Representatives from the Five Mountains Sword Sect, Shang Qingtian.
Representatives from Emei Sect, Mie Jianshi Tai.
Representatives from the Snow Mountain Sect, Meng Lei.
Representatives from the Dian Cang Sect, Xiao Jian.
Only...
The mysterious Kunlun Sect did not appear.
This was a battle for the reputation and dignity of the Ancient Martial Judgment Hall.
So most of the officials from the Ancient Martial Judgment Hall had come here.
Xiao Feng glanced at these people, then went to his own seat.
With the arrival of the judgment bell, the judge of the Magic Capital’s highest judicial court slowly walked up.
The judge was a well-known lawyer from peacetime who, after surviving, awakened the ability to read minds. He was assigned by the Magic Capital’s official base to the position of judge.
But in this judgment, it was clear that there was no need to read minds to understand the thoughts of both parties.
One was the judgment rules, black and white.
The other was the will of the people, the people’s representatives.
Who would win this judgment depended on how both sides argued.
Inquire about the identities of both sides.
Outline the reasons for this judgment.
...
After a series of procedures, the judge announced the start.
"Defendant Xiao Feng, current head of the Sun-Moon Alliance. Do you have any objections to the indictment from the Ancient Martial Judgment Hall?"
"No objections!" Xiao Feng sat in his seat, crossed his legs, and said indifferently.
"No objections?"
"Am I so arrogant?"
"Arrogant, disdainful of the official judgment hall, just a few words, what can you do to me?"
...
"Xiao Feng, please watch your words. This is the Magic Capital’s highest people’s judgment hall. Every word you say represents the outcome of this judgment!"
The judge said sternly.
"I know!" Xiao Feng appeared indifferent.
"Since you find no meaning in this judgment, then on behalf of the Magic Capital’s highest judicial court, I pronounce the judgment for this judgment..."
"Wait a minute!"
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.
"You have no right to judge the Sun-Moon Alliance!"
A dignified voice followed.
Everyone turned to look.
They saw a thin old man walking slowly in from the entrance of the judgment hall.
Seeing this thin old man, Ye Hai and Zhang De Bai behind Xiao Feng frowned instantly.
