"These two people ran to the palace of the inner disciple in the middle of the night and did something to sneak and eavesdrop, you, the law enforcement elder, not only don't care, but also protect the shortcomings? Also, Yun Qing has already told me everything before, Mu Chen's crime of slandering the same sect has to be punished, and after all the disciples come back, you must punish these two people on the punishment platform, otherwise, you, the law enforcement elder, will not be a law enforcement elder!"

Yang Qi completely took out the majesty of the Guardian Elder, word by word, word by word, Yun Lian had no way to refute it at all, of course, he didn't dare to refute it.

Because it is rumored that the skill of the Guardian Elder Yang Qi is almost the same as that of the Three Great Divine Envoys, I am afraid that he is already a saint who has passed through the Five Realms, and Yun Lian does not care about provoking this Guardian Elder regardless of his status or strength.

"Okay, I see. At this time, Yun Lian could only bow his head and give in.

"It's okay to take your people back first, I still have something to say to my apprentice, is it possible that you want to eavesdrop like your apprentice?" Seeing that Yun Lian was soft, Yang Qi was also expected, so he said to him teasingly.

"Mu Chen, let's go!" Now that the words have been spoken, Yun Lian can only leave with Mu Chen and Yan Qing aggrieved.

After the three left, Zhang Ling asked Yang Qi why he came here suddenly, and Yang Qi laughed and said that it was because his senior brothers had notified him when they saw signs of fighting in his palace, so they rushed to help Zhang Ling in time.

"Thank you very much, master, if you hadn't arrived in time, Mu Chen and Yan Qing would probably have to be favored again. ”

After listening to what Yang Qi said, Zhang Ling said to the master gratefully.

"Zhao Yan, let's go in and talk about it. Yang Qi was very happy to see that his apprentice was so sensible, so he patted him on the shoulder and motioned for Zhang Ling to take him to the palace to reminisce about the past.

Entering the palace, Yang Qi remembered that Zhang Ling chose the dojo of the previous leader, and there was a familiar feeling when he came in.

"Zhao Yan, the dojo you chose is very chic, and it is very in line with your temperament. ”

"The apprentice just did what he wanted, and he didn't think about it so much, I don't know if the master came here today, in addition to helping the apprentice, is there anything else you want to ask?"

Yang Qi was suddenly stunned when he heard Zhang Ling's question, and then laughed again, "My apprentice is very smart! That's good, I won't beat around the bush as a teacher, Zhao Yan and Yun Qing have told me, what happened to you in the Alien Beast Mountain Range?"

Facing the master's concerned inquiry, Zhang Ling thought about it for a while, and decided to tell the truth, "Master, I won't hide it from you, I did get a Nine Rank Realm Empty Stone in the Alien Beast Mountain Range, but I don't think I'm in the company of any demons, and I ask the master to believe me." ”

"Oh? Nine Rank Realm Empty Stone, that's a treasure, if you can get it, that's your chance, you don't have to explain so much, I'm very relieved about your person, naturally I won't be with any demons, I just want to ask you, has there been any changes in the Alien Beast Mountain Range today." ”

Yang Qi saw that his apprentice did not hide anything from him, and he also smiled with relief, he naturally believed in Zhang Ling's character, but he still wanted to know if the Alien Beast Mountain Range had changed now compared to a hundred years ago.

"Change, I'm going this time, and I don't know if there is a change apprentice, it's just that we didn't go deep into the deepest part of the mountain range this time, and the strange thing is that we haven't seen a slightly stronger beast from beginning to end, and we haven't seen a single beast in the Transformation God Realm. ”

Originally, Zhang Ling had no doubts in his heart after he came back, but now when he was asked by the master, he also frowned slightly, very confused.

"It seems that there has really been a change, the Alien Beast Mountain Range may become a variable in the Wufu Cliff in the future, I really don't know why they moved this plane to the Wufu Cliff in the first place, I always feel that someone is playing a big game of chess!"

After listening to what Zhang Ling said, Yang Qi also looked sad when he thought about it.

"Variables? why?" was already in doubt, but now that Yang Qi said this, Zhang Ling felt that there seemed to be some conspiracy in the cliff of Wufu.

"Apprentice, your realm is still shallow, you don't need to know so much, there are some things I will deal with, as the guardian elder of the Wufu Cliff, I naturally want to protect the Wufu Cliff thoroughly, anyone who dares to touch the Wufu Cliff, I, Yang Qi, will make him pay the price!"

Yang Qi stood up from his seat suddenly, his momentum was like a wave, as if he had a plan in his heart, "Zhao Yan, it's late at night, you have a good rest, in a few days, we will go to the punishment table to see how Yun Lian wants to punish his beloved disciple!"

"Okay, master, you go slowly. Zhang Ling saw that the master got up and left, so he gave him away.

"Senior brother, then I'll leave too, you rest early. Yiqing, who had been silent on the sidelines, saw that Yang Qi was leaving, and it was not good for him to continue to stay here, so he said to Zhang Ling.

Zhang Ling looked at her who still had a trace of haggard on her face, and he felt a little unbearable in his heart, he knew that if it wasn't for protecting Zhang Ling, she wouldn't be so seriously injured, so he stopped her, "Senior sister, you wait." ”

"Senior brother, is there anything else?" To be honest, hearing Zhang Ling suddenly stop her, Yiqing still had a trace of joy in her heart.

After a while, Zhang Ling walked out of the inner room, "Come, this is the elixir and exercises obtained from this mission, for me, these are dispensable, senior sister treats me as a senior brother sincerely, so you must accept these." ”

"Senior brother, this is not necessary, I am a senior brother, and I have never been for anything in return. ”

"Take it, I know you don't ask for anything in return, but I don't want to feel ashamed, besides, your little sister Yiling also needs these, although she doesn't like me as a senior brother very much, but I know that she doesn't have a bad heart, these should be regarded as some gifts for you, you can accept it, and have a good rest after you go back." ”

Zhang Ling saw Yiqing's resignation, so he forced the thing into her hand and said sincerely.

Seeing that Zhang Ling was like this, Yi Qing couldn't refuse anymore, so he hesitated to accept it, "Then I'll go, senior brother." ”

Yiqing took the sect resources that Zhang Ling gave her, turned around and left, feeling both moved and disappointed.

Zhang Ling looked at her back as she left abruptly, and naturally knew what she was feeling, but now, he could only regard her as his junior sister.

A few days later, the earth was at the top of the peak, and the penalty table was awarded.

When Zhang Ling and Yiqing arrived, the punishment platform was already crowded with people, whether it was the inner and outer disciples, or many elders, they were all present, and the Guardian Elder Yang Qi was sitting in the middle of the high platform, looking at Mu Chen under the stage with an awe-inspiring expression.

Zhang Ling and Yiqing stood behind Yang Qi, and there were Li Huan, Xia Luan, Xia Feng, Yi Ling, Yan Cheng, Yan Qing and others next to them.

At this time, the law enforcement elder Yun Lian could only bite the bullet and judge his beloved disciple in full view of everyone, he looked at Mu Chen's eyes on the stage, and he really had mixed feelings.

If you don't punish him, you won't be able to pass the level of an apologetic elder, and punishing him will not only be unbearable, but it will also damage your face as a law enforcement elder. But at this moment, the penalty table is already crowded with people who want to see the excitement, and he is now difficult to ride a tiger.

"Mu Chen, Yan Qing, can you two be guilty?" Yun Lian walked to the stage, looked at Mu Chen and Yan Qing's frightened expressions, and asked seriously.

"The disciple confesses!" The two of them bowed their heads and admitted their mistakes at this time, which was really unexpected by Zhang Ling, he thought that these two people would have to quibble for their own face, but they didn't expect to confess their guilt so obediently?

However, if you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to understand that since these two people went back that night, they must have been severely reprimanded by their masters, no matter how dissatisfied they were, or how wronged they were, they must have been told that they must be respectful and respectful on the punishment table, and no quibbles, otherwise they will only bring bitter consequences to themselves.

Especially Elder Yun Yin, within a few days of receiving Yan Qing, he was hit by him in such a big disaster, which can be said to make him lose face as the leading elder, but Yan Qing was also his chosen apprentice after all, so before coming here, Yun Yin emphasized many times that no quibbles were allowed, no resistance was allowed, otherwise no one would be able to help them.

"Yun Lian, are you going to tell me how you are going to punish them?" Yang Qi sat on the high seat, looked at Yun Lian with a questioning expression, and motioned for him to hurry up and punish him, don't be slow, so many disciples are watching!

"Yes, Elder Cathar, I will punish you. Yun Lian was forced to have no choice, so he shook his head helplessly, and turned to face the many Wuxian Cliff disciples in the audience.

"Disciples, it's my Yun Lian's lack of teaching that caused my apprentice to do something that violates the rules of the door, the two of them not only slandered Zhao Yan, the leader of the Great Test, colluded with the Demon Dao, but also sneaked into the leader's palace in the middle of the night to do things of sneaking and eavesdropping, all kinds of behaviors are strictly prohibited by the door rules, and now, since these two people have confessed, I will sentence the two of them as follows. ”

"Framing fellow disciples has not caused serious consequences, and according to the rules of the teacher, he will be punished with 300 lashes. ”

"Sneaking and eavesdropping on the practice of the same sect, according to the rules of the sect, you must be demoted to one level, demoted to an outer disciple, and confiscate all the sect resources that were previously rewarded. ”

After Yun Lian finished speaking, he walked up to Yang Qi respectfully, and asked with a worried expression, "Elder Protector, do you think this is okay?"

"Hmph, you're quite soft-hearted, Zhao Yan, do you think it's okay? If you think it's okay, I naturally won't punish more. ”

Faced with Yun Lian's inquiry, Yang Qi did not answer him directly, but looked at Zhang Ling behind him.

"Let's just punish them, I hope they can change their lives after this punishment. Zhang Ling looked at Mu Chen and Yan Qing from afar, and he was also a little helpless, he didn't have anything to do with Mu Chen, after all, he was not good at heart, but it was a pity that Yan Qing delayed his good future for his little love.

Thinking of this, Zhang Ling actually said to Yun Lian, "I don't know if the law enforcement elder can hand over the whipping to the disciple and Senior Sister Yiqing for execution." ”

"What? You want to execute?" was about to turn around and carry out the punishment, but he never thought that Zhang Ling at this time would actually attack him at this time, and there was inevitably a trace of resentment in his expression.

"After all, they are victims, and it is reasonable to carry out the sentence, if you don't agree, I have enough reason to believe that you want to protect your shortcomings for personal gain!"

Seeing the expression on Yun Lian's face, Yang Qi could see at a glance what this Yun Lian was thinking, it turned out that this Yun Lian had planned to protect his shortcomings from the beginning, and he would carry out the whipping by himself, so that Mu Chen's damage would be minimized.

And now that the Guardian Elders saw through it at a glance, if he still insisted on carrying out the whipping himself, then the other elders would definitely have opinions and opinions.

"Okay, you can go, I will naturally not protect the short!" Yun Lian had no choice but to hand the whip in his hand to Zhang Ling.

Zhang Ling smiled and took the whip, whispered a few words in Yiqing's ear, and walked straight towards Mu Chen.

At this time, Mu Chen saw Zhang Ling coming with a smile, and his heart was naturally terrified, Zhang Ling was his sworn enemy, let him carry out the whipping, then he would have to get it? Even if he didn't die, he would have to lose a few layers of skin, right?

"Master, don't, don't let him carry out the whipping, I'll die!" At this time, Mu Chen watched Zhang Ling approaching step by step, and could only shout in despair.
