Enjoying the fruits of others' labor! How does a sect's holy son break through the defense

Li Peng was stunned!

Ye Zhentian actually made him apologize to the murderer who killed his disciple?

What the hell is the logic behind this?

"Sect Master, he killed Jing He in front of everyone using extremely cruel methods."

"Just because he's talented, do you think you can let this go and pretend nothing happened? Then Jinghe died in vain?"

"If that's true, does that mean any disciple with good talent in a sect can kill those with less talent at will? What's the point of sect rules then?"

"You want me, a dignified inner sect elder, to apologize to him? Who will pay for my disciple's life? All the sect disciples saw it; how can this convince them?"

Ye Zhentian frowned and smacked his lips.

"I can fully understand the Second Elder's desire to avenge Jinghe, but..."

He really wanted to argue.

But Li Peng is right.

Jinghe is an inner disciple of the Jade Leaf level, highly valued by the sect and holding a very high position.

He was killed just like that.

We cannot let this matter pass just because Lü Tu is talented; wouldn't that chill the hearts of the entire clan?

Once people's hearts grow cold, it's hard to reunite them!

But he was even more unwilling to deal with Lü Tu.

To put it bluntly...

A hundred Jinghe Rivers are not worth as much as a single hair of Lü Tu's head.

Just as Ye Zhentian was struggling with this problem, Ye Linxiao's voice suddenly rang out.

"Lu Tu first crippled Jing He's cultivation and then accidentally killed him. Even if it was unintentional, it was still a violation of the sect rules."

"According to the sect rules, his cultivation should be abolished and he should be expelled from the sect!"

These words startled everyone.

Are you going to cripple Lü Tu's cultivation?

This is a 20-year-old Spirit King! If he were crippled, it would be the biggest loss for the Cloud Sect.

"Could it be that the Holy Son is jealous of Lü Tu's talent? That can't be right, can it? The Holy Son isn't that kind of person."

"How is it impossible? The Holy Son has always been arrogant and conceited. He is the most dazzling genius in my Ye Hua Prefecture, but now Lü Tu has suddenly risen to be on par with him, seriously threatening his halo and status. If it were me, I would be furious too."

"But if we really execute Lü Tu, it would be a huge loss for my Yunshang Sect."

Just as everyone was filled with suspicion and regret, Ye Linxiao's voice rang out again.

"but!"

"As far as I know, Jinghe has done a lot of shady things behind the sect's back over the years."

"He has committed numerous crimes, including embezzlement, bribery, trafficking of disciples, disregard for human life, and rampant corruption, severely damaging the sect's reputation and repeatedly violating sect rules. His crimes are too numerous to list."

"According to the sect rules, dying a hundred times wouldn't be enough!"

"If the Second Elder does not believe me, I can provide conclusive evidence."

Upon hearing this!

This caused a huge uproar among the crowd.

They had heard about these things before, but hearing them from Ye Linxiao's mouth now was tantamount to sentencing Jing He to death again.

Although it was completely dead, not even a trace remained.

Li Peng listened with cold sweat pouring down his forehead, because he was the mastermind behind all of this.

By pinning these charges on Jing He, Ye Linxiao was clearly warning him.

Ye Linxiao continued.

"Although Lü Tu killed Jing He, it was Jing He who violated the assessment rules first and attempted to cripple his cultivation, so it is understandable."

"Furthermore, killing Jinghe can be considered as eliminating a great scourge for the sect, and I believe that this merit can make up for the mistake."

"Second Elder, what do you think?"

Lu Tu looked towards the stands and his gaze met Ye Linxiao's.

He cupped his hands and smiled.

"May the Holy Son bear witness!"

He knew that Ye Linxiao wasn't trying to help him; he just didn't want the sect to lose a super genius.

At the same time, they also regarded him as an evenly matched opponent.

Because he saw a strong fighting spirit in Ye Linxiao's eyes.

It seems she's getting into a competition with him.

Seeing that Li Peng's eyes were darting away, Ye Zhentian deliberately spoke up to question him.

"Second Elder, as Jinghe's master, are you completely unaware of the crimes he has committed over the years?"

Li Peng felt extremely guilty and could only pretend to know nothing about it.

"I truly know nothing about what the Holy Son is saying."

"I will investigate this matter immediately. If Jinghe has indeed violated the sect rules and seriously damaged the sect's reputation, then he certainly deserves to die!"

With that, Li Peng waved his hand and said with righteous indignation.

"As an inner sect elder, I will not tolerate this!"

He's not stupid!

It's now clear that the sect wants to protect Lü Tu; even if he wanted to kill him, he couldn't.

If he insists on going his own way, he might even get himself into trouble.

Therefore, the only option is to protect oneself first and then find an opportunity to kill Lü Tu later.

In short, he must avenge Jinghe!

"Excellent! Second Elder, you are truly righteous!"

Ye Zhentian no longer wants to pursue the shady things Li Peng did.

"However, regardless of the circumstances, Lü Tu's killing of Jing He without the sect's permission was indeed a violation of the sect's rules, and he should naturally be punished."

"Without punishment, the people will not be satisfied!"

"If you ask me... how about three days of solitary confinement?"

Li Peng: "???"

Everyone: "???"

As we were talking!

Ye Zhentian stood with his hands behind his back, his spiritual pressure at the sixth level of the Spirit King realm subtly released, and his sharp, knife-like eyes swept across the entire scene.

The sense of oppression came on instantly.

"Who's in favor? Who's opposed?"

After a moment of astonishment, everyone shook their heads.

I have no objection whatsoever.

"I have absolutely no objection."

"The sect leader is wise; I believe this punishment is entirely reasonable."

"Jinghe only lost his life, but Senior Brother Lü will be confined for three whole days. That punishment is indeed severe enough."

Listening to the discussions of the crowd, Lü Tu couldn't help but sigh.

This is reality.

Before that, he was met with nothing but ridicule and insults... being called a lowly stray dog.

And now?

"Sure enough, when you're awesome, even your farts are colorful and fragrant."

Li Peng clenched his fists, barely suppressing his anger.

He was supposed to take on a disciple during this assessment.

But now he has lost one of his most prized disciples.

"Congratulations to our sect for producing another extraordinary genius."

"Sect Master, the inner sect assessment is over. I shall take my leave now!"

That's all!

He gave Lü Tu a deep look, then turned and left.

Ye Zhentian instantly switched to a friendly smile.

He patted Lü Tu on the shoulder, speaking softly as if afraid of upsetting his precious child.

"Lu Tu, you say you have such extraordinary talent, so why didn't you tell the sect before?"

"Look at all this trouble, we almost buried your talent."

"Wouldn't that be a great loss to my Cloud Sect?"

After a pause, Ye Zhentian spoke with a hint of probing.

"However, what I'm more curious about is why your cultivation level suddenly skyrocketed to the Spirit King realm? Is there any explanation for that?"

He can be sure of it!

Before the assessment, Lü Tu's cultivation level was genuinely at the eighth level of the Qi Condensation Realm; he had not concealed his cultivation.

There must be something fishy going on here!

Lü Tu knew that Ye Zhentian and the others must have suspicions, so he had already prepared his explanation.

"To be honest, I once received the inheritance of a powerful being by chance, which allowed me to defy fate."

"His apparent cultivation level is indeed at the Qi Condensation Realm, but in reality, his hidden realm has already broken through to the Spirit King Realm. It's just that this hidden realm has been sealed and needs an opportunity to be unlocked."

At that moment, Ye Linxiao's voice suddenly came.

His gaze was as sharp as a knife!

"So I'm the one who made it possible for you to be unsealed?"

No wonder!

No wonder Lü Tu was willing to risk his life to accept the Qingyun Ranking and enter the inner sect to see him.

No wonder Lü Tu said he wanted to see him before the assessment.

That all matches up!

At first, even he himself thought that Lü Tu had homosexual tendencies, which was disgusting.

But now he can be certain that Lü Tu's ability to reach the Spirit King realm is definitely related to him.

"Is that right, Lü Tu?"
