The council all bursted into laughter.
"Reincarnate? Ha ha ha. They had committed theft, how could they simply be eligible for reincarnation? Both of them have been banished to the depths of hell where they have to labor for a thousand merits to pay off their debt and be able to reincarnate, assuming that their souls are still recoverable. In the worst-case scenario, I'm afraid that after being down there for such a long time, their souls would be so worn out that distorted figures are the only options for them for rebirth."
The woman's irises turned red, she no longer cared about her proper appearance and at the same time ignored all the etiquette she had been taught over the years, she screamed loudly at the council.
"What does this mean? They were robbed of something that was originally theirs, and then they were desperate to get it back. How could they be convicted of stealing? Such nonsense! How can you people proceed that way? Please release my parents immediately!
The Yin Ti Emperor sat in the center of the hall, lazily speaking.
"Young girl! You should reevaluate yourself. This is where we judge you, not vice versa, we haven't even mentioned your murder, you dare open your mouth to yell at the council, dare to give us orders?"
The young girl's eyes widened in confusion as she asked.
"What? Murder? I've never committed a murder. You are defaming me, you all consider that I am not pleasing to the eye, that I am a prostitute, that my body is low, so you want to exile me? I swear if I kill people, my soul will never be at peace."
The Emperor seemed to chuckle.
“What a big mouth yet empty words! How is your soul’s state have any value to me? I do not care whether your soul is at peace or not, all I care is that you had committed murder when you were alive and now you must pay the consequences.”
“But I did not! Didn’t I just inform you of that? I want a reevaluation!”
“I have the power to decide your fate, I wouldn’t bother to do that, however, I might consider the procedure if I get anything preferable in return, which you have nothing to offer.”
“Then…I dare vowel that I will live out the rest of my days serving you if any of what you convict me of is true. Is this enough?”
The whole council was laughing with a mocking aftertaste.
"You dare vowel in front of the Emperor of Hell?"
“Of course I dare. I would admit anything that I did, if I didn’t do it, why must I admit it?”
Her voice was firm, her eyes alert, the woman was adamant that she would not give in to anyone.
"Okay! Then first I will go through your record again.”
“Please do!”

“Ah! Right on the front page, the identity of the person you had murdered!”
"Say it! What was that victim’s name?” The woman appeared to challenge the council.
“It didn’t have a name yet!”
“What?!” She was confused.
"... It was the baby in your belly!"
The girl now had no blood on her face, her eyes were wide open and smeared with blood vessels, her face was full of confusion and anger.
"I didn't intend to get rid of that fetus in my worm. An accident occurred. It was the baby of one customer, I had planned to give birth to that child, but it passed away as a result of a miscarriage. This was not intended at all. You can't suddenly condemn me for murder.”
“Then, if you don't want to get rid of it, why did you continue to accept customers while you were obviously aware that you were pregnant, causing this miscarriage to occur? If it wasn't your fault, then who would be held accountable for the life of that helpless child?”
The girl screamed madly.
“It was really an accident! I had no intention of harming the baby! I had planned to give birth to the baby, and also to make plans for its future. But… but if I didn't take in customers, the madam would definitely throw me out. And after that, where should I go with that pregnant belly of mine? I would be homeless, starving, with no money in hand, I and the baby as well would surely die. Given my situation, I don't have a choice!"
“Your highness, we don’t have to waste our precious time arguing with this nonsense woman in futile, there are still lots of cases to go through, please make your final sentence!” One official spoke up.
“You little! Until my case has been handled fairly, no one else could step foot into this hall!”
Despite her plight, the Yin Ti Emperor’s attitude was indifferent, he did not even bother to continue the conversation, simply waved his hand.
"There is no need to consider any other underlying reasons, the fetus in her womb died directly as a result of her decision; thus, it is an act of murder, and she should have received the punishment of being sent to the depths of hell and labor for seven thousand merits, however, as she had vowel to stay here and serve me for an eternity, I would gladly grant her wish, she will now never to set foot on the human world again and stay here working in the Underworld. Now take effect instantly!"
“Your speech is wise!” All the Officials chanted in unison.
"No! You guys are scammers! A bunch of scoundrels! You scumbags! You distorted the truth! I didn't kill people! I didn't kill my baby! I didn’t kill anyone! You rotten people! I hope the Heavenly Thunder will come down and strike you to ashes! Each and every one of you! The scoundrels!”
“We ARE the Heavenly Thunder! Say no more! TAKE HER AWAY!”
The Yin Ti Emperor pulled out his staff with a strange shape, just a light flick, two demons immediately emerged from the ground, rushed to grab the woman's head and neck, and mercilessly dragged her away, leaving only desperate screams and cursings resounded throughout the great Hall Of Justice.
