Wu Shattered Star River

#275 - Chapter 275 is outrageous

Si Li nodded and said, "I happened to be nearby when Jiang Han killed Liu Dong and Shentu Hao. I was alarmed and rushed over when he released that kind of Thunder Dragon Divine Power."

After a pause, Si Li added, "Although I didn't personally witness Shentu Hao and Liu Dong attacking Baili Ju and Lu Xi to snatch the Celestial Marrow."

"However, from the injuries on Baili Ju and Lu Xi at the time, the traces of battle at the scene, and their subsequent conversation, I can infer—what Jiang Han said is true!"

"Wow ~"

Si Li's words caused an uproar around her.

As the First Miss of Sword Demon Mountain, Si Li's status and position are transcendent. She couldn't possibly lie, and she wouldn't possibly distort the truth to help Jiang Han. Her words carry immense weight.

Lu Feixian breathed out a sigh of relief, and Jiang Han cupped his fist and bowed gratefully to Si Li.

Not only because Si Li helped him, but also because Si Li's righteous words saved him from being wrongly accused.

The Wood Inspector's eyes flickered, and his expression became somewhat unnatural. Si Li's testimony was like a slap in the face in public.

Shentu Leopard and Shentu Longxiang's expressions darkened, but they didn't dare to say anything more.

Liu Yusheng watched leisurely from the sidelines, acting as if it was none of his business.

The Wood Inspector pondered for a moment and said with gritted teeth, "Si Li, you also said that you didn't personally witness the previous situation, you're just inferring."

"Jiang Han killing Liu Dong and Shentu Hao is a fact, and slaughtering over a thousand people on Wangyue Island is also a fact. No matter what, Jiang Han is guilty and unforgivable!"

Hearing the Wood Inspector's words, Lu Feixian's expression sank, and anger appeared in Jiang Han's eyes.

This old dog is determined to kill him. If the difference in strength between the two wasn't too great, he would risk his life to die together with this old dog.

"Alas…"

Si Li sighed softly and looked at the Wood Inspector expressionlessly, saying, "Elder Mu, I am very disappointed in you."

"Disappointed?"

The Wood Inspector frowned. Just as he was about to say something, the ring on Si Li's hand lit up, and then a token appeared.

The token was blood-red, with a large, flamboyant character on it, the character for "Sword."

This character seemed to possess an invisible magic power. Everyone who glanced at it felt a sense of shock.

The "Sword" character contained a terrifying sword intent, as if it wanted to tear them apart. Everyone who looked at it quickly averted their gaze, fearing injury from the sword intent.

"Mountain Master's Token!"

The Wood Inspector's expression changed drastically, and a look of horror appeared in his eyes.

Liu Yusheng, Shentu Leopard, Lu Feixian, and others glanced at it and bowed to the token.

There is only one such token in the entire Sword Demon Mountain, and each time it appears, it represents the Sword Demon Mountain Master's personal presence.

Si Li looked at the Wood Inspector expressionlessly and said, "Elder Mu, as an Inspector, you should patrol the four directions on behalf of the Mountain Master and resolve injustices in all directions. You should be impartial, fair, and uphold the iron laws of my Sword Demon Mountain in all matters."

"This time, regarding Jiang Han's matter, you deliberately favored Shentu Leopard because he is your brother-in-law, abandoning public duty for personal reasons. You are no longer suitable to serve as an Inspector. Pass down the Mountain Master's decree—remove Mu Jian from his position as Inspector and return to Sword Demon Mountain for ten years of confinement."

Si Li's words fell, and the entire audience was silent. Mu Jian, Shentu Leopard, and others' faces were ashen.

Mu Jian moved his lips, wanting to say something, but in the end, he just bowed deeply and said, "This subordinate respectfully obeys the Mountain Master's decree."

"咻!"

After Mu Jian finished speaking, he didn't stay. His body turned into a streak of white light and flew towards Wangyue Peak, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

The entire audience was silent again. Many people had expressions of唏嘘 on their faces, never expecting the situation to reverse in the blink of an eye.

The Inspector, who had just been high above, adjudicating life and death, was actually dismissed and confined for ten years…

Si Li swept her gaze around the audience and said, "By order of the Mountain Master, I will temporarily assume the position of Inspector and adjudicate all matters here. Does anyone have any objections?"

"We respectfully obey Miss Si Li's orders!"

Liu Yusheng, Shentu Leopard, and others quickly expressed their positions. Si Li holding Si Wujian's token is like holding an imperial sword; who would dare to object?

"Shentu Leopard!"

Si Li turned her gaze to Shentu Leopard and said, "Your son's death is understandable. However, you dispatched troops to pursue Jiang Han without asking the reason, leading to today's situation. You bear undeniable responsibility."

"This envoy now punishes you to serve on Tianluan Island. You must kill one Void Realm High Stage expert or five ordinary Void Realm experts before you can leave. Do you have any objections?"

"Tianluan Island…"

Si Yu, Liu Xinghe, and others were slightly startled. Going to Tianluan Island isn't scary, but what's scary is having to kill one Void Realm High Stage expert or five ordinary Void Realm experts. This isn't something that can be easily done.

It's possible that Shentu Leopard will have to stay on Tianluan Island for the rest of his life, or even die there.

Shentu Leopard's eyes turned cold, and Shentu Longxiang, Shentu Dihu, and Wang Feng's eyes were filled with anger. Shentu Dihu was about to say something, but Shentu Leopard gave him a cold look, and he closed his mouth.

Shentu Leopard pondered for a moment and said with gritted teeth, "Miss Si Li, I have no problem going to Tianluan Island, but… the responsibility for today's situation isn't solely mine, right?"

Si Li said indifferently, "You don't need to worry about other matters. Since this envoy is temporarily acting as Inspector, I will naturally be fair and just. This envoy is now asking if you have any objections?"

Shentu Leopard's eyes flickered, and finally, he lowered his head and said, "I have no objections!"

"Good!"

Si Li turned her gaze to Lu Feixian and said, "Lu Feixian, you have defied your superiors. Although there are extenuating circumstances, the crime is not small. This envoy punishes you to serve on Tianluan Island for ten years. Do you have any objections?"

Lu Feixian smiled freely and bowed, saying, "I have no…"

"I have objections!"

Before Lu Feixian could finish speaking, Jiang Han forcefully interjected, "Hall Master Lu is protecting her subordinates and dissatisfied with Lixian Peak's excessive bullying, so she had no choice but to take action. Moreover, Hall Master Lu didn't kill anyone. Hall Master Lu's crime is all because of Jiang Han. Jiang Han is willing to bear Hall Master Lu's punishment alone."

Lu Feixian frowned slightly. Just as she was about to say something, Si Li glanced at Jiang Han indifferently and said, "You're willing to take the blame for Lu Feixian? You can, but the sentence will be doubled!"

Jiang Han didn't know what Tianluan Island was, but Lu Feixian had provoked trouble because of helping him.

Moreover, as the Hall Master, if she's gone, Feixian Hall might be retaliated against by Lixian Peak.

Therefore, Jiang Han didn't hesitate and cupped his fist, saying, "I can, twenty years is twenty years, Jiang Han is willing to go!"

"Hehe!"

Si Li suddenly laughed and shook her head gently, saying, "Jiang Han, do you think twenty years is enough? Although you are innocent of killing Liu Dong and Shentu Hao, you killed over a thousand people on Wangyue Island, which is unforgivable."

"This envoy punishes you to serve on Tianluan Island for three hundred years, plus Lu Feixian's twenty years, for a total of three hundred and twenty years. Do you have any objections?"

"What?"

Jiang Han was dumbfounded. Let him serve for three hundred and twenty years? Is this definitely not a joke? Can he live to be three hundred and twenty years old in this lifetime?

Although cultivators' lifespans will increase with their realm, theoretically, if they reach the Earth Immortal Realm, they can live to be two hundred years old, and if they reach the Divine Descent Realm, it is said that they can live to be three hundred years old.

But can he reach such a high realm in this lifetime? Punishing him to serve on Tianluan Island for three hundred and twenty years? Is this the rhythm of being in prison until he dies?

It's very outrageous…

Lu Feixian was just about to say something, but at this moment, her mouth closed.

Anyway, Jiang Han was punished for so many years, and taking the blame for her for twenty years feels insignificant, so let him carry it.
