Ichigo could not hold it in anymore. His eyes turned scarlet as he bellowed, "We must not have mercy on traitors!"

The hall became raucous as the crowd broke into a heated discussion.

"Fade is really a traitor. I thought there's some hidden story, but it turns out..."

"He's gone too far. Mr. Jin has been stationed in the Ice-sealed Realm by Prohibition Island for decades, yet he was killed by that guy."

"Fade must die!"

"It would be too nice if we just kill him like that. We need to capture him and torture him to death. Otherwise, I'm afraid that Mr. Jin and the other disciples would not rest in peace." The people in the hall were so enraged that almost everyone screamed to take Fade's life.

Janus, who had been speaking for him earlier, also fell into silence.

"Well, I think it's better not to make a decision abruptly. After all, things are not clear yet. Maybe there is something..."

Without waiting for Janus to finish his words, Ichigo glared at him and shouted angrily, "Janus, you are still defending that traitor. Are you even a member of Prohibition Island?"

"Of course I am. It's just that..." Janus wanted to explain.

However, Ichigo cut him off, "There's nothing much to explain. We have evidence that Fade is a traitor and a murderer. He deserves to die!"

"He deserves to die!"

"Kill him!"

Cries rang out in the main hall.

Ichigo turned his eyes and stared at the Three Palace Masters. Cupping his hands in front of him, he said, "Palace Masters, Fade is a traitor. He is so ruthless that he has killed our people. I request for a wanted order to arrest the traitor." Upon hearing his request, the masters all wore different expressions.

Secondson narrowed his eyes and the corner of his mouth slightly twitched up.

Thirdson put away his usual gentle smile and looked at Firstson, who was sitting in the middle, waiting for his decision.

As for Firstson, he remained expressionless. He lowered his head slightly as if he was in a dilemma. No one could really read his expression.

Everyone was waiting for him to make his decision in silence.

However, he remained silent for a long time.

Secondson shot Ichigo a glance, signaling him to do something.

Ichigo understood and urged again, "Please agree to issue the wanted order."

"Kill Fade!"

"Kill Fade!"

"Kill Fade!"

Instantly, voices of agreement rang out in the hall.

Janus, who originally wanted to defend Fade, turned pale and he had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.

Firstson, who had been silent all the time, finally raised his head and looked at the crowd.

"I..."

Firstson spoke.

Ichigo had already waved his hand and was about to give an order to his men.

Right at that moment, another disciple rushed in. "Report, Fade is back."

The hall fell into pin drop silence as they heard this.

"What did you say?" Ichigo's expression darkened as he glared at the disciple.

The disciple cowered and quickly said, "Mr. Ichigo, Fade has returned. He is on his way here."

"How dare that traitor come back. I'm going to kill him!" Ichigo was furious and was ready to attack any moment.

At this moment, Janus said loudly, "Since Fade is back, let's question him to see what exactly is going on. It's not too late to decide how to deal with him after that." "Are you still speaking up for him up until now?" Ichigo roared.

Janus replied calmly, "Ichigo, we will know the whole situation once we question him. Everyone can make judgments then. Let's not just jump to conclusions before hearing from him."

"There is no need to give such a traitor another chance. Just kill him," Ichigo roared angrily.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, a cold voice sounded, "Mr. Ichigo, are you trying to kill me?"

While speaking, Fade swaggered into the hall.

"How dare you come back? I'm going to kill you!" Ichigo was fuming. He slammed a blast of energy at Fade.

The energy roared and aimed straight at

Fade's heart.

Seeing this, Janus' face fell. He rushed over to stop the burst of energy from hitting Fade.

However, before he made his move, Fade snorted and lightly flicked his right hand. A streak of energy shot out and shattered Ichigo's attack into pieces.

"You..." Ichigo was shocked by the scene and was prepared to attack again.

However, at that moment, Firstson opened his mouth and yelled, "Stop!"

In an instant, a majestic and mighty aura spread throughout the hall, pressing down on the crowd.

Even Fade felt his heart palpitate and he slightly lowered his head.

In the past, he couldn't tell the difference between Lord Level experts. Now that he'd made a to the depths of the Ice-sealed Realm, he knew that above the Lord Level, there were the Physical Refine Realm, the Soul Refine Realm, and the Fetus Refine Realm.

At that moment, he could sense that Firstson's aura was at least at the eighth or ninth stage of the Physical Refine Realm. It was even possible that he had reached the Soul Refine heha Realm. However, with Fade's current th, it was impossible for him to determine his exact stage.

As Firstson spoke, the members of the hall immediately quietened down.

After a slight pause, Firstson stared at Fade and asked, "Fade, do you admit to the charges?"

Fade raised his head proudly and replied, "Master, I don't know what I've done wrong."

"Traitor, how dare you argue in front of the Palace Masters?" Ichigo bellowed.

"You have colluded with Double Blades and even killed Taruca and twenty six disciples in the Ice-sealed Realm. Are you trying to deny it?"

Fade glanced at Ichigo and did not respond. Then, he stared straight at Firstson.

"You have no words to defend yourself, don't you?" Ichigo gritted his teeth.

Fade said coldly, "This is Skytop Palace. The Three Palace Masters haven't questioned me yet, but some people are just yelling around. Isn't it a bit disrespectful?" "You..." Ichigo was furious. He pointed at Fade, barely able to hold himself back from killing him.

At that moment, Firstson said, "Please calm down, Ichigo."

"Yes, Master!"

Ichigo had no choice but to suppress his anger and he stepped back resentfully.

Firstson looked at Fade and asked again, "Fade, do you admit to Ichigo's accusations?"

As he asked that question, all the attention fell on Fade.

In the face of dozens of gazes, Fade was not nervous at all. He looked at Firstson and said proudly, "Yes, I killed Taruca and his twenty six disciples."
