Chapter XXXVI: Punishment

Baishi Daoren, Yang Chengtang Master, Elder Aoki, Elder Agni and others looked at each other angrily, half an hour had passed, and the two sides did not give an inch, and the scene entered a stalemate.

At this moment, a disciple outside the door came to report, "The five elders of Qiqi and the Yang Hall Master, the sect master have gone out of the customs, and they have invited six to go to the meeting. ”

The six of them were shocked, the sect master who had been in retreat for many years was finally out of the customs, and as soon as they got out, they discussed with them. The six of them could only pack up their emotions and go to meet the sect master.

......

Martial Spirit Sect Master Liu Jingyun has been in retreat for three years, and he finally came out yesterday. This time, Liu Jingyun's strength soared, and his ambition had long been unbearable, so he prepared to convene the elders the next day. Only five elders had been sent out, and the other five had not yet arrived.

Liu Jingyun was stunned for a moment, frowned, and then asked, "What's the matter?"

The disciple replied, "According to the disciple's investigation, Zhou Qian injured Wang Yan, Chen Feng, Liu Yun, and Ma Qiang in the Law Enforcement Hall today, and Elder Agni, Elder Baishi, Hall Master Yang Cheng, and others are handling this matter. Senior Brother Zhang Lei has gone to the Law Enforcement Hall to invite them. ”

Liu Jingyun asked, "Zhou Qian, who is this person?" He had been in retreat for three years, and it was not his turn for a disciple like Zhou Qian to come and ask, and besides, this disciple had only become famous a few months ago, so it was not surprising that he did not know.

The disciple told Zhou Qian's affairs one by one.

Liu Jingyun was also amazed when he heard Zhou Gan's deeds, such an excellent disciple appeared in the sect, and as the sect master, he was also quite happy. But when he thought of the contradictions between him and Wang Yan and the others, as well as the opinions of Agni and the others about him now, even Liu Jingyun felt a headache. Such an excellent disciple is full of difficulties in the sect, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to develop in the sect.

Thinking of this, Liu Jingyun's brows furrowed deeply, and then he said, "Let Zhang Lei inform the five elders to come to see me with Yang Cheng." ”

"Yes!" the disciple replied.

Liu Jingyun couldn't help but sigh, the sect may lose such an excellent disciple, this is a big loss for the Martial Spirit Sect!

......

The six people including Baishi Daoren came to the Wuling Pavilion, which was the place where the sect master was discussing. When the six of them saw the first Sect Master Liu Jingyun sitting on it, Bai Shi and the others felt the greater sense of oppression coming from the Sect Master, and they knew that they had greatly improved their strength in this retreat, and they were overjoyed in their hearts, "Congratulations to the Sect Master's strength to a higher level." ”

Liu Jingyun waved his hand and said with a smile: "No need to be polite. Sit down, everybody!"

The eleven people including Baishi Daoren sat down silently.

Liu Jingyun said lightly: "I heard that there is another excellent disciple under the Baishi Sect, named Zhou Qian, it is really gratifying!" and then sighed, "However, it's a pity!"

Everyone was stunned, they didn't expect the sect master to mention this matter at this time, and they all looked at each other, such a trivial matter actually alarmed the sect master, and everyone was taken aback.

Liu Jingyun waved his hand and said, "Look, how should Zhou Qian's matter be handled?"

Elder Aoki stood up first and said, "Zhou Qian, as a guilty body, did not repent of his death, and also injured four outstanding disciples in the Law Enforcement Hall, this kind of big mistake must not be forgiven. I recommend that he be sentenced to death, or that his martial arts be abolished as an example. ”

Aoki was angry about Zhou Gan's injury to his son, especially Zhou Gan's slap on him, which made him even more angry, and when the sect master asked, he immediately said the strongest punishment without hesitation.

After Aoki finished speaking, except for the four of them, the rest of them couldn't help frowning, such a heavy punishment was actually imposed on the most outstanding disciples of the Martial Spirit Sect, which made them all shocked, and at the same time very disappointed that Aoki was narrow-minded and disregarded the overall situation.

Bai Shi frowned and said, "Sect Master Qi, this matter is not on Zhou Qian's first. And the punishment is too great. Besides, a slap doesn't make a sound, Zhou Qian has had it, and Chen Feng and others are also at fault. And Aoki didn't mention the punishment of Chen Feng and the others, how can this convince the public?"

Everyone couldn't help but nodded, but the punishment for Zhou Qian was too heavy, and the fault was committed by both sides.

Aoki's faces changed, and then Aoki said loudly, "Elder Shiraishi, don't you exonerate Zhou Gan?"

Baishi Daoren said lightly: "I didn't excuse Zhou Qian, and I didn't say that I wouldn't punish him! It's that you've been excusing Chen Feng and the others!" Shiraishi Daoren deliberately accentuated the tone of the word "Chen Feng", and everyone also understood, and they were dissatisfied with Aoki's shortcomings.

Aoki's face changed, and he quibbled, "I didn't excuse them?"

Yang Cheng said: "Then may I ask Elder Aoki, how should Chen Feng and the others be punished?" He had long been dissatisfied with Aoki, and the punishment he proposed to Zhou Qian was simply to put people to death, and he didn't mention the punishment of Chen Feng at all, he was simply thinking that his son was a human being, and others were not human. This kind of person can also become an elder, which is really unfortunate for the sect.

Aoki was stunned, and asked him to punish Chen Feng, but he was a hundred unwilling. But when questioned like this, he had nothing to say. On the side, Elder Agni stood up and asked, "May I ask what Chen Feng is guilty of, and what is the crime of Wang Yan and the others?"

Yang Cheng sneered: "Chen Feng insulted Zhou Gan, and also insulted Zhou Gan's deceased parents, and slapped Zhou Gan. If he doesn't, how can they fight? Seeing this, Wang Yan and the three of them also helped Chen Feng and joined forces to deal with Zhou Qian, as accomplices. Are they not guilty?"

Agni Huo sneered: "Chen Feng insulted Zhou Qian, he had it, but he was not guilty. Wang Yan and the three of them helped each other to help the weaker side. After all, Chen Feng was not Zhou Gan's opponent, could it be that they watched Chen Feng being beaten to death by Zhou Gan? Therefore, Wang Yan and the others were not only innocent, but also meritorious. Because they saved Chen Feng. ”

Agni's words not only excused Chen Feng and the others, but also curried favor with the three Aoki people, which really killed two birds with one stone.

Seeing him so forceful, the people of Baishi Dao were even more angry, and then asked, "You said that Chen Feng is not guilty, what crime did Zhou Qian commit?"

Agni Huo said indifferently: "Wang Yan and the four of them kindly came to visit him, not only did Zhou Qian not appreciate it, but he hurt people because of a quarrel, which was simply lawless. Besides, he was a sinful body, and he should have thought about it in front of the wall, but he didn't think about repentance, which was simply a sin on top of a sin, and it was simply an unforgivable sin!"

Yang Cheng said: "How can it be said that the parents who have insulted others and passed away can be said to be a quarrel? How can this kind of thing be done by people of my generation of cultivators? Moreover, it is not Zhou Qian who made the first move, and it is unfair and inappropriate to impose all the blame on Zhou Gan. ”

Under the continuous dispute between the two sides, Liu Jingyun spoke: "Okay, you don't need to say more. It is up to this seat to announce the punishment of Zhou Qian and others. ”

Everyone stopped talking, their hearts beating faster as they waited for the sect master's decision.

Liu Jingyun glanced at everyone, and then said lightly: "Wang Yan, Liu Yun, and Ma Qiang are locked up for one month, and Chen Feng is locked up for three months. And Zhou Qian......" said this, paused, and then continued, "Expelled from the sect!"
