Chapter 1561 - 908: Zhang Yu’s Blank Law

She turned her head and glared at Fa Liuyuan, shouting, "Fa Liuyuan! The chaos caused by your people, you must bear historical responsibility!"

A judge from the pharmaceutical sector said, "Reform Faction, Reform Faction, just a name, are you really going to stir things up?"

Faced with this one-sided criticism from the numerous judges, Fa Liuyuan naturally could not fight back alone against the crowd.

He could only look helpless, forcing a bitter smile as he explained to everyone, "Please listen to me, the law proposed by Zhang Yu, we the Reform Faction truly did not know about beforehand, had we known he intended to do something like this, we too would not support him in such chaos."

While Fa Liuyuan smiled bitterly and apologized, explaining his position, he secretly thought, "Zhang Yu, Zhang Yu, to use this law for Kunxu’s reform? Too impatient."

"Management of the law? Is this something you can consider in your current position?"

In Fa Liuyuan’s view, even if the law needs to be managed, it’s definitely not something that Zhang Yu, at this moment, should or can propose.

Considering this, Fa Liuyuan further added, "As far as I know, Zhang Yu once stood up against Yun Taizhen’s faction to purge the sect of its cancers, and later accomplished great deeds alone at the Old Graveyard. He has always been dedicated to working for the sect, not someone prone to such reckless actions, there could be a misunderstanding here..."

Ling Chenji snorted coldly, saying, "No need to help him save face. To control the realm’s laws... I doubt your Reform Faction has such courage, it must be something wrong with Zhang Yu himself, perhaps he is a pawn of the Outer Sect forces."

"I suggest... in addition to rejecting his law proposal, immediately open an investigation against him, and temporarily revoke his legislative authority until his issues are clarified."

Upon hearing Ling Chenji’s words, Fa Liuyuan thought to himself, "Is this the crucial moment?"

Fa Liuyuan understood very well that all of the judges’ criticism ultimately aimed to reach this conclusion... to remove a candidate for legislation from their Reform Faction.

"Sigh... Tai Yue Bai stabbed one of his own, and now Zhang Yu is about to lose his legislative seat, these two guys are really..."

Thinking to this point, Fa Liuyuan immediately felt a wave of weariness.

Just as both sides were disputing, Bu Yuan Gui suddenly said, "Actually, Zhang Yu’s law proposal does have some merits."

Bu Yuan Gui’s statement was like a thunderclap, immediately attracting the judges’ attention.

Amidst the surprised gazes of everyone, Bu Yuan Gui continued, "The law is the foundation of sect governance, the basis of today’s Kunxu, and should indeed not be moved lightly, but..."

Bu Yuan Gui then changed his tone, saying, "Considering that some laws were established very early, while they suited the environment of Kunxu at the time, they are no longer suitable now, and have historical limitations, they should indeed be managed."

Ling Chenji and the others were all surprised looking at Bu Yuan Gui, not understanding why this high-ranking member of the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Clan suddenly supported Zhang Yu?

"When did the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Clan join hands with the Reform Faction?"

Ling Chenji immediately turned to the chief judge Su Xianchen, asking, "Su Tianjun, what do you say?"

Ling Chenji hoped Su Xianchen would quickly utter a fair sentence, denounce Zhang Yu’s law proposal, and then suppress the Reform Faction...

But Su Xianchen quietly said, "I have nothing to say."

Then, amidst the shocked looks of everyone present, Su Xianchen continued, "Just now, Zhang Yu’s law proposal has already passed its review and was submitted."

"What?!"

"We didn’t approve it?!"

"How was it just submitted?"

The office was instantly filled with an overflow of information, and the judges present were all engulfed in surprise.

Su Xianchen calmly said, "Perhaps there was a procedural issue, I am communicating with the higher-ups to feedback our opinions."

"What kind of issue could there be?" Bu Yuan Gui thought inwardly, "Could such a grand Legislation Ceremony have a procedural loophole?"

"Our approval process was directly bypassed; it means there exists another process unknown to us."

"Zhang Yu is not acting rashly..."

From his earlier secret exchange with Su Xianchen, learning that Zhang Yu’s law had passed approval, he continually pondered the key point and overturned his original thoughts.

"The fact that Zhang Yu’s law could be passed indicates it is not he who wishes to control the realm’s laws, but that someone higher up wishes to control the realm’s laws."

Bu Yuan Gui slowly lifted his head, his gaze seeming to cross the office before him, crossing the Small Realm, looking toward the unknown high level of Kunxu.

With this realization, Bu Yuan Gui re-examined Zhang Yu’s specific provisions and immediately felt different.

Meanwhile, Su Xianchen’s figure trembled slightly, and then he slowly said, "The higher-ups said there is no issue, as Zhang Yu’s approval process was valid because he..."

"Has a blank law, possessing the highest legislative freedom, its content... is not subject to our review and control."

Upon hearing this, the office appeared to pause for a moment, all the flow of information, all the fluctuations of the Spirit Realm and Law Realm, seemed to stop for an instant.

The next moment, all the judges were in shock.

"Blank law? Highest legislative freedom?"

"How is that possible? How could Zhang Yu have such a thing?"

Ling Chenji was also incredulous, "Blank law? Was there ever such a thing before? It is simply unprecedented, what qualifies Zhang Yu for this..."

Although shocked inside, as a Level 10 Ascension Realm Sect Affairs Officer, Ling Chenji’s mood naturally settled instantly and began to consider the key point.
