"Hu Bing, don't deceive people too much, I've always been tolerant of you, but I didn't expect you to want to force me to the point of no return. You're in a state like a demon who chooses to devour people, and if I'm guessing correctly, rescuing your apprentices is just part of your plan, and it's all just a conspiracy. If I hadn't escaped fast enough, I wouldn't have survived this moment. ”

Hu Bing smiled slightly when he heard what Zhu Ren said, which was obviously an expression that would only be revealed when he was angry to the extreme.

"In that case, the blame for Zhu Mei's death should be counted on my head, right? After all, I planned everything. ”

Zhu Ren didn't see the fierce light in Hu Bing's eyes, and continued to say arrogantly in a mocking tone: "This is what you said yourself, and it has nothing to do with me." But this is true, and there is nothing to argue. ”

"Well said, then you can die now. ”

The spiritual power fluctuations in the palm of Hu Bing's right palm surged up like a sea tide, and the spiritual power light cluster as red as blood quickly condensed above her palm.

The brilliant and dazzling light quickly spread to every corner of the hall and penetrated into the eyes of everyone present. The oversaturated red color was like a raging fire, and all the disciples' eyes could feel the pain of burning.

"Stop---"

When Hu Bing was about to use the spirit bead that had been condensed in his palm to give Zhu Ren a fatal blow, Zhu Xie's roar suddenly sounded, and there was indignation and disappointment in his voice.

The moment she heard this voice, Hu Bing's awe of her master still overwhelmed her killing intent. She took the initiative to put down her right hand and withdrew her spiritual power, and the blood-colored light in the hall suddenly dissipated.

"Hu Bing, you dare to have hurtful thoughts during the public trial, do you know what will happen to you?" Zhu Xie looked solemn, and the words of warning word by word tried to wake up Hu Bing, who had lost his mind again.

Hu Bing's eyes were slightly red, and his face was full of grief and indignation. She ignored all the disciples in the council hall at the moment, as if she and Zhu Xie were the only two people here, and poured out her helplessness in a hoarse voice.

"There is no such thing as 'justice,' and it seems that the wicked will never get the punishment they deserve. If the master has no intention of seeking justice for your disciples, please give the disciples the death penalty according to the rules of the door, otherwise as long as the disciples are still alive, they will not give up, and they will definitely let the person who killed Xiaomei pay for the blood debt. ”

A pair of master and apprentice were relatively speechless, and an extremely oppressive atmosphere enveloped the space.

Faced with Hu Bing's desperate cry from the bottom of his heart, Zhu Xie fell into a silence that should not be maintained at this time. He didn't know how to respond to Hu Bing's outburst of emotion, and a deep sense of guilt completely enveloped his consciousness, making it impossible for him to utter even a single word.

Zhu Xie's silence at this time brought Zhu Ren an excellent opportunity to counteract, and the integrity and morality that he should have as a cultivator were all left behind, and now his only purpose was to put Hu Bing, a "foreigner", in a situation from which he could never recover.

"Okay, you Hu Bing, you actually put me Zhu Ren into the ranks of 'wicked people', even if you lie, you are not as vicious as you. I swear to God, Zhu Mei was never killed by my own hands, but more than a dozen brothers and sisters who were like me undoubtedly died at the hands of you Hu Bing. Since you are bent on death, then ask the head of the sect to deal with it impartially, and give you the death penalty according to the rules of the door, which can be regarded as fulfilling your wish. ”

Zhu Ren's aggressiveness made Zhu Xie even more angry, originally Hu Bing was untimely and rash, he had already committed a big taboo, which made him very annoyed, and now Zhu Ren fell into the ground, completely exposing his ugly face. Zhu Xie suddenly felt angry, and his face was already blue.

However, what was even more chilling was that after Zhu Ren finished speaking, nearly half of the disciples present shouted loudly in unison: "Deal with it impartially and execute Hu Bing!"

The crowd shouting slogans in unison was like a group of puppets whose spirits had been dominated, thinking about it in fear. Even Zhu Xie, who was an elder, had to admire Zhu Ren's ability to lobby, and the words that came out of his mouth seemed to be easily believed by others, which was similar to the hypnotic technique that some exotic alchemists were good at.

"Shut it all --- me"

The anger that Zhu Xie had suppressed for a long time finally broke out at this moment, and he shouted loudly, the sound was as deafening as a bell.

Hearing the strong anger in Zhu Xie's voice, the disciples who "helped" Zhu Ren stopped one after another, and the chamber returned to a silent state.

Zhu Xie looked at Hu Bing at this time, but found that her face was like ashes, her head was lowered, and her ice-blue hair almost covered half of her face. The appearance of decadence seems to have given up all hope of survival, waiting for the imminent death sentence.

Bing'er, look up. ”

Zhu Xie said to Hu Bing in a gentle tone, intending to revive her spirits. But Hu Bing was like a walking corpse that had lost his soul, and he didn't react at all.

Seeing this, Zhu Xie had no choice but to raise his voice and repeat Fang Cai's order again.

"Bing'er, did you hear it? ”

This time Hu Bing finally responded, only to see her slowly raise her head and look at her master blankly with a dull gaze, the completely lifeless appearance made Zhu Xie, who was her mentor, feel a throbbing pain in her heart.

"Bing'er, do you think that Master will be deceived by illusory lies and make judgments?"

Hearing Zhu Xie's tone, a hint of brilliance finally appeared in Hu Bing's eyes, unlike Fang Cai, who was not much different from the two pools of stagnant water.

Seeing that this move was effective, Zhu Xie continued: "Bing'er, you have to believe in Master. Even if you can't satisfy your heart's desire, the teacher will definitely make an absolutely fair judgment. ”

As soon as Zhu Ren saw that Zhu Xie ignored the opinions of nearly half of the disciples present, he resolutely fell to Hu Bing's side, and his face immediately couldn't hold up, and he hurriedly said: "Master, please don't forget, the verdict of my sect's public trial has always been to listen to the opinions of the people, and the minority obeys the majority. It is already considered an excess for the head to protect his shortcomings like this, and I hope that the head of the house will abide by the rules of the door and not go against the grain. ”

Zhu Xie sneered a few times when he heard this, and said: "Then do you have to obey lies when you tell the truth? As the head of the sect, I naturally have the ability to distinguish between right and wrong, you are just a mere six-tailed realm, and you actually treat me as a fool, is this your attitude towards your elders? I have endured it for a long time, I hope you don't challenge my bottom line again." ”

Zhu Xie's categorical tone made Zhu Ren, who had just told the lie in a high-sounding manner, speechless, and he couldn't think of a powerful way to refute Zhu Xie now.

Taking advantage of the gap when Zhu Ren was speechless, among the hundred people who went to rescue the Spirit Sparrow Clan with Hu Bing, a male disciple who admired the former leader the most also spoke at this time.

"Senior Sister Hu's character

The two of them have been together for nearly 700 years, and they know each other like close relatives. The head of the family has always been iron-faced and selfless, and he is impartial to anyone, so how can he favor Senior Sister Hu for no reason? It can be seen from this that what the head of the family has just said is the truth, but it is Senior Brother Zhu Ren who is full of nonsense, reversing black and white, and trying to put all the blame on Senior Sister Hu. I hope that the head of the family will deal with Zhu Ren strictly, and punish the two crimes together, so as to seek justice for Senior Sister Hu. ”

These few words of his can be regarded as speaking the hearts of those disciples who support Hu Bing, although these people account for less than thirty percent of the disciples in the entire council hall, but their intentions to defend Hu Bing at any time are sincere.

Since the supporters on Zhu Ren's side had already shouted the slogan, they naturally couldn't show weakness, so they shouted in unison: "I hope the head of the family will seek justice for Senior Sister Hu!"

The situation reversed so quickly that Zhu Ren felt panicked for the first time, believing that things were likely to develop in a direction beyond his control. Zhu Ren anxiously looked at the disciples behind him who were supposed to "support" him, hoping that they could speak up for themselves.

But Zhu Ren didn't expect that most of these people were all people and went with the flow, and when he saw Zhu Xie standing firmly on Hu Bing's side, he couldn't muster the courage to help Zhu Ren again.

Zhu Xie's face turned serious at this time, and he said with a straight face: "Okay, after arguing for so long, this farce should come to an end." Since it is a public trial, it is natural to pay attention to fairness, and as long as a crime is committed, it should be punished. I will only make judgments based on the facts, so I don't have to worry about being biased. Now I will give the final verdict. ”

After saying that, Zhu Xie moved his gaze to Zhu Ren's body and said in a deep voice: "Zhu Ren, you conspired to kidnap Zhu Mei and lead Hu Bing into a trap, intending to put her to death, thus indirectly killing Zhu Mei who wanted to save the master. In the end, Hu Bing fell into madness due to the death of his apprentice, and then he started to kill, and you can't escape responsibility for the death of more than a dozen disciples. Zhu Ren, are you guilty?"

What Zhu Xie said was true, and the extremely serious and heavy tone made Zhu Ren almost breathless, and he couldn't muster up the courage to refute at all, so he had to respond with silence.

"If you don't refute it, you can be considered acquiesced. ”

Immediately, Zhu Xie said to Hu Bing again: "Bing'er, although you were delirious when you killed your fellow disciples, after all, you also committed the killing, are you guilty?"

Hu Bing bowed his head lightly and responded indifferently: "The disciple is guilty, please punish the master." ”

"Both of you have committed serious crimes that are intolerable by the rules of the sect, and it stands to reason that you should both be expelled from the sect and removed from the list of disciples of my Soul Worship Sect. But Nian Hu Bing is a first-time offender, and Zhu Ren did not kill Zhu Mei with his own hands, so the felony can be forgiven, giving you a chance to mend your ways. ”

Speaking of this, Zhu Xie cleared his throat and raised his voice to announce the final verdict.

"And he will send you two into the dungeon, and do a hundred years of austerity. There is a lack of spiritual power to supply your body's needs, but it does not weaken you to death, which is the best thing I teach to punish sinners. In the dungeon, you need to reflect on your mistakes every day in order to make amends. I hope it will be refreshing to see you again in 100 years.
