On Xinglv Peak, in a solemn hall, a group of people were kneeling in three rows. In front of them, a young man sat in front of a bookcase, holding a pen and lowering his head to sketch on a thick book.
"Zhao Wei robbed property and severely injured his fellow disciples. The evidence is conclusive. He is sentenced to return of all property, thirty canes, and one year of house arrest!"
Zhao Wei, who was kneeling on the ground, heard his trial and immediately trembled with fear. With thirty sticks, one stick could break his bones!
A slap of the stick was enough to beat him half to death!
Being imprisoned for one year is even more costly, enough to make the geniuses of his generation far surpass him, and even be surpassed by those who come after him!
At this moment, he deeply regretted his previous actions of being greedy for money and hurting people, but he did not dare to be dissatisfied with the trial. Looking at the ruthless young man above him, he did not even dare to beg for mercy, and was escorted away with a pale face.
"Wang Wei seduced many people, practiced the evil skill of harvesting yang and replenishing yin, and killed many brothers who were the same master. The evidence is conclusive and she will be executed on the same day!"
The young man's cold voice came out, and a pretty woman below collapsed directly on the ground, her eyes full of despair.
"Zhou Xi..."
The young man turned the page and continued to announce the crimes of the people below. The atmosphere in the entire hall became heavier and colder.
When the young man's trial was halfway through, a disciple came in, cupped his fists and bowed his waist, and then muttered a message to him.
"Senior Brother Luo, Su Mu has returned to the sect for half a day without any injuries."
The young man raised his head when he heard the sound, and a smile couldn't help appearing on his cold face. He was none other than Luohu Hong, who attended the Peach Festival with Su Mu!
His position in the Sunset Sect is extraordinary. He is the chief registrar of Xinglv Peak, specializing in making decisions about life and death!
"This guy is finally willing to come back!"
Luo Huhong put down his pen and wanted to see Su Mu, but found that half of the criminals below had not yet finished their trial. After a moment of hesitation, he picked up the pen again.
"Junior Brother Zhao, please go out and ask Su Mu to come over. I will finish it here soon."
"yes."
After Zhao De left, Luo Huhong was in a good mood and asked Su Mu to come over, just in time to see their Xinglv Peak style.
…
Zheng Yaning was sitting cross-legged in the courtyard practicing. The vitality in the courtyard was far less than that in the attic. The practice was just for rest, but she was determined not to enter the attic.
Before, she could go to the attic to practice. At that time, Jianfeng was not yet mature and she didn't need to worry much. Now that Jianfeng has matured, she must put more thought into protecting Jianfeng.
When dark clouds enveloped the bright moon, Zheng Yaning's eyelashes trembled and she opened her eyes in disappointment.
"Is it still here?"
She murmured and laughed at herself, she really made a mistake.
"Whoa!"
A black shadow rushed into the yard like lightning and headed straight for Jian Feng!
Jianfeng is a treasure that even the soul-crossing realm is excited about. Even in the soul-crossing realm, one may not be able to fully understand the power of the sword. Jianfeng is very needed to improve the power of the sword.
Even if you don't need it yourself in the Spiritual Crossing Realm, you can still use it for your descendants.
"blow!"
Zheng Yaning raised his hand and struck with a blast of energy, forcing the black shadow back!
"Chen Ming, it is indeed you!"
Zheng Yaning stood up and recognized the man in black just by looking at him!
Chen Ming was one of her friends who chatted with her during the day. The two had known each other for many years, and they could recognize each other at a glance even if their faces were covered!
"I gave you so many opportunities, why don't you cherish them!" Zheng Yaning said sadly. She is kind, but she is not stupid!
How many times had Chen Ming and the others looked at Jian Feng? How could she not notice that even by agreeing to intercede with Su Mu for them, she was giving them a chance!
Unexpectedly, Chen Ming still came to steal Jian Feng, which completely disappointed her!
"Zheng Yaning, this is none of your business, don't stop me!" Chen Ming became angry because of embarrassment. Unexpectedly, Zheng Yaning had been guarding against him for many years since they had known each other!
Zheng Yaning did not speak, but turned around and a sharp sword appeared in her hand, proving her determination. She will protect Jian Feng to the death!
When Chen Ming saw that Zheng Yaning was about to attack him, his eyes turned cold and he said sadly: "Zheng Yaning, we have known each other for more than ten years, how can we not compare to him?"
"You let me take Jianfeng away. As long as I mature Jianfeng, I will give you a share!"
"No need." Zheng Yaning said indifferently.
"You are also a sword cultivator, don't you have feelings for Jian Feng?" Chen Ming didn't understand, so he insisted on going against him?
"My heart beats, but I won't be as despicable as you!"
Listening to Zheng Yaning's contempt for him, Chen Ming smiled. People who can't tell the difference between close and distant people are qualified to spurn him!
"Now get out of here, don't force me to take action!" Zheng Yaning turned her sword, if he didn't leave, she would take action immediately!
Chen Ming smiled again and looked at Zheng Yaning with contempt: "Do you think you will be my opponent?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Ming rushed towards Zheng Yaning with a fierce look on his face!
If Su Mu hadn't come back, he wouldn't be so anxious, but it would be different when he came back. Jian Feng would mature soon, and if he didn't take action, he would have no chance!
Seeing Chen Ming coming to kill him, Zheng Yaning's face turned cold. He completely lost his scruples and swung his sword to attack!
"snort!"
But before she could take a few steps, she received a heavy blow on the back of her neck and fell to the ground with a groan.
Seeing Zheng Yaning unconscious on the ground, Chen Ming stopped in shock, looked up at the black figure in front of him, and suddenly became vigilant.
"Brother Xian!?"
After staring at the black shadow for a while, Chen Ming recognized who he was and was shocked again.
Li Xian walked out of the darkness and nodded to Chen Ming. He was also one of the friends who talked to Zheng Yaning during the day!
"Why are you here too?" Chen Ming said unexpectedly.
"If I don't come, you can't even deal with her." Li Xian said calmly and looked at Jian Feng, his eyes becoming hot.
"Dig out Jian Feng and leave."
It turned out that he was also coming for Jian Feng. Chen Ming suddenly realized that he was really brave enough to not even wear night clothes or cover his face.
Then his heart tightened and he looked at Li Xian warily again.
"Why are you still standing there in a daze? When Jian Feng is fully mature, you and I will be evenly matched!" Li Xian frowned and said. He had been having long nights and dreams, but he still didn't take action.
Chen Ming hesitated for a moment, then nodded and went to dig up Jian Feng, even if it was half or half, Li Xian was at the Nayuan realm, and he was only at the Tianji realm, so he couldn't beat him.
"blow!"
"boom!"
Just when Chen Minggang walked in front of Jian Feng, a blast of Gang Qi suddenly came and created a hole in front of him!
"who!"
Chen Ming and Li Xian's expressions changed, and they turned to look at the attic. Su Mu had come out at some point, standing on the stairs and watching them quietly.
"Su Mu?"
Li Xian and Chen Ming narrowed their eyes, and then sneered at the corners of their mouths. Did they notice them? But what's the use?
"Su Mu, if you were smart, you should hide in the attic and pretend you didn't see anything."
"As you can see, we want to poach Jian Feng, what do you think?"
Li Xian and the two were really arrogant. They clearly wanted to steal Su Mu's treasure, but they still asked Su Mu what he thought.
"No objections, just go ahead and dig it out." Su Mu said calmly. He had already discovered the thoughts of people like Li Xian, but he didn't expect that they would really dare to steal it, and now they wanted to rob it openly.
"Don't get me wrong." Li Xian smiled, his smile full of greed.
"How can a sword maple satisfy my appetite? Give us some colored crystal walnuts. I know you still have a lot of them."
