The moment Song Ba finished the statement it was like a thunderclap had exploded in the courtroom. First came the thunderous explosion then came the defeating silence that was accompanied by the heaviness in the eye.

Chen Gutian's eyes were as wide as they could be, overflowing with shock and disbelief. Chen Zian wasn't that far behind as his eyes flashed with bewilderment as he alternated his gaze between Song Ba and Chen Zholan.
