Owen Bertram stood up, bowed with a clenched fist and said, "This humble official is loyal to Your Majesty, but Lin Ronald falsely accused me just because of his high cultivation level and strong strength. He took my subordinates hostage and forced me to plead guilty. I had no choice but to cooperate with him temporarily, because I believe in Your Majesty's wisdom and martial prowess. Once we are in front of Your Majesty, all of Lin Ronald's schemes will be exposed!"
"You twist the facts and confuse right and wrong!" Lin Ronald shouted and bowed to the Emperor, "Your Majesty, the Seventh Prince is right here. The sophistication of the Puppet technique is not high. All it takes is a royal family Grandmaster to investigate! The evidence of Owen Bertram's crimes is irrefutable, and he should not be allowed to argue!"
Lin Ronald was very confident because on the way here, he had secretly investigated the "protected" Seventh Prince and found traces of the Puppet technique!
