Crime of Treason

The war ended, and after everyone returned to the Imperial Capital, Zhao Lun immediately handed an indictment over to the Ministry of War, reporting Ling Han's action of defecting during the war.

Zhao Lun was Deputy Commander of the troops, so the indictment he handed in naturally was taken seriously by the Ministry of War, what more when Zhao Lun was also the only son of the Great General Zhao. His status was considerably noble, so no one would dare to treat this as a small matter.

Hence, a large-scale investigation was immediately launched.

The situation was indeed quite suspicious.

Ling Han might be extremely genius—this was a publicly acknowledged fact. However, no matter how much of a genius you were, your actual cultivation level was there to be seen. You were only at the peak stage of the medium extreme, and even if you could exceed five stars in actual battle, that would only be battle prowess worth the early stage of the consummate level.
