Chapter 165: The Wrath of the Golden Core, Enforcement of Clan Rules [Subscription Request]

Chen Linlin is dead!
Zhou Mingde and his team's mission on this trip has been completed.

But their real danger moment has just begun.

Next, the Jindan-stage cultivator of the Hualong Sect whose beloved concubine died would definitely not let these murderers get away easily.

So after watching Chen Linlin burn to ashes in front of him, although Zhou Daoyi felt extremely sorry for not being able to keep the storage bag from the other party, he did not dare to delay at all. He and Zhou Mingde hurriedly collected the several magical weapons left behind by the other party and quickly retreated towards Longyuanze.

Because Qing Jiao was injured, they could only fly on their own to avoid leaking his breath and being caught up by the enemy.

Almost within an hour after the two left the scene, a red flame flew from a very far distance to the scene, revealing the figure of a tall and mighty middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man landed above the scene, glanced at the messy battlefield below, then raised his hand and grabbed something, and brought it to his nose and sniffed it.

Then he said in a deep voice: "The smell of a third-level dragon, the smell of a third-level fire monster, and the smell of two human cultivators!"

"It seems like this was a premeditated attack!"

At this point, his eyes turned cold, and he sneered, "Good, very good!"

"How dare you kill my concubine, Xiao Zhengyang!"

Then he raised his hand and patted the storage bag on his waist, and took out a golden talisman sword.

This is the golden sword used by Jindan-stage monks to communicate with each other. It allows two Jindan-stage monks to communicate with each other even if they are thousands of miles apart.

At this time, Xiao Zhengyang whispered a few words to the golden talisman sword, then threw it away and threw it out.

Suddenly, the golden talisman sword broke through the air and flew into the sky, flying towards the target at a speed several times faster than that of a Jindan stage cultivator.

After sending out the golden sword message, Xiao Zhengyang used his hand gestures to cast a spell and tracked the murderer's whereabouts by capturing the murderer's remaining breath at the scene.

But the Zhou family was once a Jindan family with a history of more than a thousand years, so they are certainly familiar with the magical powers of Jindan cultivators.

Therefore, when they were evacuating the scene, the two of them deliberately created confusion and left their strong auras in many places to mislead people.

Xiao Zhengyang went through a lot of detours before he finally confirmed that they had fled to Longyuanze.

"Escaped towards Longyuanze?"

Xiao Zhengyang frowned slightly, he didn't expect that the murderer would be so bold.

Although their Dragon Transformation Sect had obtained the tacit approval of the Jiaolong Clan, they could occupy the wilderness area near Longyuanze and develop the resources there.

However, the waters of Longyuanze are still restricted areas.

If the cultivators of the Dragon Transformation Sect enter the waters of Longyuanze, they will no longer receive any special treatment and will still be attacked by the high-level monsters in the waters.

Therefore, few cultivators from the Dragon Transformation Sect dare to enter Longyuanze.

"So what if you have entered Longyuanze? I, Xiao, don't believe that you dare to go deep into the restricted area!"

A ruthless look flashed in his eyes, and without hesitation, he flew directly towards Longyuanze.

But when he chased to the edge of Longyuanze, he found that the breath had disappeared.

Only then did he realize that he had been deceived again.

"You thief! How dare you play tricks on me like this!"

Anger finally showed in his eyes and he could no longer suppress his inner rage.

He was seen glaring at the surging waves in front of him, growling with gritted teeth, "Don't let me find you, or I will let you know how much it will cost to play tricks on me!"

After saying that, he turned around and left angrily.

He knew very well that since the murderer could control a third-order dragon, he would not be able to find him in Longyuanze.

In this case, it would be better to go back first, investigate the murderer's background based on this characteristic, and then take revenge.

With the power of the Dragon Transformation Sect, he didn't believe that he couldn't find out the truth!

Not to mention how angry Xiao Zhengyang was when his beloved concubine died, he vowed to find the murderer and take revenge.

However, after Zhou Mingde and his companions entered Longyuanze with the help of the Green Dragon, they successfully entered the underground river not long after, and then went upstream and returned to Lanzhou.

However, when the two returned to their family, they found that a large number of clansmen were gathered in front of the family ancestral temple on Pagoda Peak.

A member of the Zhou family, whose shirt had been stripped off, was kneeling in front of the ancestral temple with his hands tied.

Zhou Chun, the deputy patriarch of the Zhou family, was standing beside that man with several family elders who were invited here, with their backs to the ancestral temple and facing the crowd.

Zhou Chun clasped his hands together and bowed to the many Zhou family members who came, then said in a deep voice: "Dear clan members, uncles and brothers, I have called you all here today because someone has seriously violated the clan rules and violated the clan prohibitions. I, Zheng Chun, will punish him in public as a warning!"

At this point, he turned his gaze to the Zhou family cultivator kneeling on the ground and shouted, "Zhou Zhenghuan, do you want to confess your crime yourself, or do you want me to do it?"

Hearing his words, the man trembled, turned around quickly, kowtowed to him and begged for mercy: "Please spare my life! Thirteenth brother, please spare my life, I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong!"

Seeing him like this, Zhou Jiakui in the crowd suddenly became angry and hateful.

You know how to beg for mercy now, what were you doing before!
But after all, he is his son, and his only son who has the qualifications to practice cultivation. Zhou Jiakui cannot just ignore him.

He immediately walked out of the crowd, bowed to Zhou Chun and begged for mercy, "Deputy clan leader, please have mercy! Huan'er has indeed committed a serious mistake, but please consider that he has not really caused any major losses to the family and give him a lighter punishment!"

"I kneel down for you, uncle!"

At the end of his speech, he fell to his knees on the ground with a plop.

This kneeling immediately made Zhou Chun and several elders look gloomy and frown.

When other members of the Zhou family saw this scene, they all had different expressions.

Some people looked sympathetic.

Some people looked displeased and disgusted.

Some people are indifferent.

Everything has two sides, and everyone may have different views on everything.

This view is also affected by various internal and external factors. From the expressions of the Zhou family members at this time, we can see their views on Zhou Jiakui's attitude of pleading for his son.

"Jia Kui, get up first. It's inappropriate to kneel like this!"

The second elder Zhou Chongshan spoke first, frowning and motioning Zhou Jiakui to stand up first.

But when Zhou Jiakui saw him speaking, he seemed to see some hope, and immediately kowtowed to him and begged: "Second Elder, please help me. Although Zheng Huan did something wrong, he is not guilty of such a crime!"

"It seems that you, Uncle Twenty-three, have not yet realized the seriousness of the mistake he made!"

After hearing what Zhou Jiakui said, Zhou Chun finally couldn't help but speak out.

He shook his head slightly, looked at the other tribesmen and said, "Someone reported to me a few days ago that Zhou Zhenghuan accepted bribes from outsiders and disclosed the matter of the Cloud Python Transforming into a Dragon, which the Supreme Elder had strictly ordered to be kept secret. After investigation, it was proved to be true!"

"It has been less than three months since the Grand Elder issued the ban, and he dared to do such a thing. Fellow tribesmen, what do you think? Should he be severely punished for this?"

what?
After hearing what Zhou Chun said, the faces of those Zhou family cultivators who were unaware of the situation changed, and they looked at Zhou Zhenghuan with contempt.

Even though they still don't know why this news was concealed, they know that since even the family's supreme elder has issued a special ban on this matter, it means that this matter must be very important to the family.

Such behavior that violates the prohibition of the Supreme Elder not only violates the clan rules, but is also a serious offense to the Supreme Elder himself, which can be said to be extremely disrespectful!
As if he felt the anger and contempt in the eyes of his fellow tribesmen, Zhou Zhenghuan quickly shook his head and shouted to defend himself.

"No, Thirteenth Brother, I am innocent!"

"I did speak carelessly to Tang Hu and the others about this, but that was only because I was drunk and spoke carelessly. I didn't really want to violate the clan rules or disobey the prohibition of the Supreme Elder!"

"Besides, haven't Tang Hu and the others been captured by you, Thirteenth Brother? If there is any fault in this matter, it is their fault. I am also a victim!"

When he said this, he seemed to believe it, and his face was full of grievance, as if he was really wronged.

But Zhou Chun said coldly at this time: "Really? But Tang Hu said that he gave you twenty spirit coins at that time!"

After saying this, he was furious and said, "It's just twenty spirit coins, and you dare to violate the clan rules and disobey the prohibition of the Supreme Elder. I think you are really crazy!"

"I, I was... I was drunk at the time and I can't remember it clearly. Anyway, I was really wronged!"

As Zhou Zhenghuan spoke, he lowered his head deeply, but his mouth remained stubborn and he still believed that he was wronged.

However, this conversation between the two was enough to let other members of the Zhou family know whether he was wrongly accused or had solid evidence of his guilt.

Therefore, at this time, Zhou Zhengyong was the first to stand up and reprimand: "Accepting money and property from outsiders and selling family secrets is a serious violation of the clan rules! Eighteenth brother, you are too bold!"

Then Zhou Zhengyu also stood up and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, Eighteenth Brother, how could you be so confused that you dare to make such a mistake!"

Once these two brothers of the same generation spoke, the other members of the Zhou family no longer had any reservations.

Zhou Jiacheng said with a look of regret: "Zhenghuan, it's okay for you to make small mistakes. We are all family members and no one will make things difficult for you. But how come you can't even tell the big mistakes from the small ones, and you dare to do something like betraying the interests of the family? You really disappoint us!"

"Selling out the family's interests and violating the prohibition of the Supreme Elders are both serious crimes that deserve severe punishment!"

"Eighteenth brother, you are so disappointing!"

"Fortunately, the deputy clan leader noticed it in time, otherwise he would have made a big mistake and caused great losses to the family. Zheng Huan, you really deserve to die!"

……

One by one, the Zhou family monks denounced Zhou Zhenghuan's foolish behavior, and no one sympathized with him anymore.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Jiakui, who was still kneeling on the ground, suddenly showed an expression of extreme shame and despair. He lowered his head deeply and dared not say another word.

Just like that, after everyone had scolded Zhou Zhenghuan, Zhou Chun spoke again, "Fellow clan members, please be quiet first. Please listen to me explain the family's punishment for Zhou Zhenghuan."

Hearing his words, the whole audience fell silent, including Zhou Zhenghuan himself, who quietly raised his eyes to Zhou Chun.

Zhou Chun's face turned serious, and he said in a solemn voice, "Zhou Zhenghuan has seriously violated the clan rules and prohibitions. The evidence is solid and he has been caught red-handed."

"Therefore, in the name of the Zhou family's deputy patriarch and the punishment steward, I have decided to abolish his cultivation and detain him for life inside the mountain gate. He is not allowed to have any contact with any outsiders!"

Do not!
After hearing what Zhou Chun said, Zhou Zhenghuan trembled all over, his eyes went dark, and he almost fainted from fright.

Then he shouted in horror, "No, don't abolish my cultivation! I don't want to be a mortal!"

As he said that, he quickly looked at Zhou Jiakui who was still kneeling on the ground and shouted, "Dad, Dad, please speak for me, please help me ask the elders for mercy!"

"I……"

Zhou Jiakui raised his head slightly, opened his mouth, and looked at Zhou Chongshan and other elders.

However, all the elders were looking at him with cold expressions, and their expressions had already told him the answer.

In an instant, his face turned pale, and then he slowly stood up and walked to Zhou Zhenghuan who was still shouting, and kicked him to the ground with a "bang".

"You bastard! You bastard!"

"If you had known this would happen, why would you have done such a stupid thing!"

"Your actions yesterday will lead to your consequences today. You deserve it. You deserve it!!"

He cursed his son, whom he loved so much, and kicked him hard, feeling angry, hateful and extremely disappointed.

When other members of the Zhou family saw this scene, many of them shook their heads and sighed.

Some Zhou family monks who also had children who were monks could not help but think of their own children. They secretly resolved to strictly discipline their children in the future and not let what happened to Zhou Zhenghuan happen to their own children again.

Otherwise, not only will they lose face like Zhou Jiakui, but their own children will also have a hard time having a good end!
Seeing this, Zhou Chun couldn't help but shake his head repeatedly, speechless at Zhou Jiakui's current behavior which was of no help.

In his opinion, Zhou Zhenghuan was certainly unforgivable, but Zhou Jiakui's previous excessive pampering and indulgence also played a big role.

But this is Zhou Jiakui's own family affair, and even people from the same clan can't say much.

Besides, he had reminded the other party before.

After Zhou Jiakui had vented his anger, he said to Zhou Jiacheng, the steward of the Internal Affairs Hall: "Uncle Seventeen, take Uncle Twenty-Three to the side to comfort him. I will personally carry out the execution!"

However, just as he finished speaking, a low voice suddenly rang out, "It would be better for me to do the execution myself!"

There was a flash of a figure, and Zhou Mingde instantly appeared in front of the ancestral temple.
