Xiao Chen naturally did not know about Hongxiu's jealousy. He was currently unconscious. When Xiao Chen saw Qin Shuirou and the other three girls, he could not help but smile.
Looking at the unconscious Xiao Chen, a smile suddenly appeared on Hongxiu's face. This was the first time Hongxiu had seen Xiao Chen smile.
Ever since she met Xiao Chen, Hongxiu had never seen Xiao Chen smile. She pursed her lips and said fiercely, "Hmph, one day, I will walk into your heart."
Hongxiu was not stupid. She naturally knew that Xiao Chen had never had any feelings for her. However, she did not know why, but she liked Xiao Chen. At the same time, she was confident that she could make Xiao Chen fall in love with her.
Xiao Chen was seriously injured and unconscious. On the other side, the experts from the Seventh and Eighth Wilderness who had retreated had gathered in Haotian City.
It had temporarily become the headquarters of the experts from the two Wilderness. However, at this moment, the Seventh Will Of The Heavenly Way was sitting on the main seat in the main hall of Haotian City. Below him, a group of experts from the Seventh Wilderness stood respectfully. At the front of the group, the Wine Taoist was prostrating on the ground.
In the previous battle, the Wine Taoist did not kill Xiao Chen. He even saved Xiao Chen's life. The Seventh Will Of The Heavenly Way naturally knew about this.
Now that the battle was over, and the Seventh and Eighth Wilderness had been defeated, although they did not suffer any serious losses, it still gave the Seventh and Eighth Realms a chance to gain a foothold on the Seventh Mainland.
It was not hard to imagine that now that the Seventh Realm's Black Palace had descended on the Seventh Mainland, it would be very difficult to drive them out in the future. This battle would probably not end in a short period of time. The Seventh Mainland, and even the entire Seventh Wilderness, would probably suffer from the flames of war for a long time to come.
Even though the Wine Daoist was not responsible for all of this, the fact that he had let Xiao Chen escape had indeed infuriated the Seventh Barren's Will. Therefore, the Wine Daoist was being held accountable.
The Seventh Will Of The Heavenly Way looked deeply at the kneeling Wine Taoist and said flatly, "Xiao Chen not only killed his father and wife, but he also betrayed the Seventh Realm. He is a traitor, and now the Heir of the Seventh Realm. Wine Taoist, you secretly let such a villain go... What do you have to say?"
The Seventh Will Of The Heavenly Way was familiar with the Wine Taoist. After all, the Taoist was an old man who had been by his side.
Originally, it trusted the Wine Daoist a lot, but because the Wine Daoist had let Xiao Chen go without permission, the Seventh Barren's Will of the Heavenly Path began to doubt his loyalty.
Of course, to say that the Wine Taoist was no longer loyal to the Seventh Will Of The Heavenly Way was completely false.
The only reason the Wine Taoist had let Xiao Chen go was because he could not bear to kill Xiao Chen.
Hearing the Seventh Will Of The Heavenly Way's words, the Wine Taoist's expression was calm. The drunkenness on his face had completely vanished. He spoke with a serious expression, which was rare for him.
"Heavenly Way, Xiao Chen killed his father and wife and betrayed the Seventh Realm. There must be more to this than meets the eye. As Xiao Chen's master, I know that Xiao Chen is not such a person. I let Xiao Chen go this time because I hope that Xiao Chen can turn over a new leaf. I have no other intentions," the Wine Taoist said.
The Wine Daoist said, pleading for mercy on Xiao Chen's behalf. However, the Seventh Barren's Will of the Heavenly Path grew even colder after hearing what the Wine Daoist said.
This was not the first time the Wine Taoist was pleading for Xiao Chen. Ever since Xiao Chen had betrayed the Seventh Realm, the Wine Taoist had pleaded for Xiao Chen many times in the hopes that the Will Of The Heavenly Way would forgive Xiao Chen.
Unfortunately, the Wine Taoist had no idea what was going on. It was impossible for the Seventh Will Of The Heavenly Way to spare Xiao Chen. Now, the Wine Taoist was pleading for Xiao Chen in front of so many experts from the Seventh Will Of The Heavenly Way, which completely infuriated the Seventh Will Of The Heavenly Way.
"Foolish. A traitor is a traitor. Xiao Chen killed his father and wife and betrayed the Seventh Realm. How can I spare him? Fine. Since you say that you are the master of that traitor, I will punish you as well."
As he spoke, the Will Of The Heavenly Way pointed his finger. A five-colored light flashed and instantly pierced through the Wine Taoist's chest, sending him flying.
The Wine Taoist spat out a mouthful of blood after being sent flying by the finger. Even so, he still spoke.
"Heavenly Way, there must be more to the matter of my disciple, Xiao Chen. I implore the Heavenly Way to give Xiao Chen another chance."
Even though he had been injured by the Will Of The Heavenly Way, the Wine Taoist still had to plead for Xiao Chen. He only hoped that Xiao Chen would repent and be saved. He had no other thoughts.
He was still loyal to the Will Of The Heavenly Way, but the Wine Taoist's words had completely angered the Will Of The Heavenly Way.
The Will Of The Heavenly Way looked at the stubborn Wine Taoist who insisted on pleading for Xiao Chen. A murderous intent finally flashed in the eyes of the Seventh Desolate. He gritted his teeth and spoke coldly.
"Fine, fine. Since you want to plead for that traitor of yours, I will fulfill your wish."
It was obvious that the Will Of The Heavenly Way wanted to kill the Wine Taoist. However, just as the Will Of The Heavenly Way was about to kill the Wine Taoist, many other experts from the Seventh Desolate spoke up.
"Heavenly Way, although the Wine Taoist has made a mistake, he doesn't deserve to die. I hope the Heavenly Way will show mercy."
"I hope the Heavenly Way will show mercy. The Wine Taoist just can't let go of his former master-disciple relationship. However, his loyalty to the Heavenly Way and the Seventh Desolate is obvious to all."
Everyone stood up to plead for the Wine Taoist. After being in the Seventh Desolate for so many years, the Wine Taoist naturally had many good friends. At this moment, everyone knew that the Will Of The Heavenly Way wanted to kill Wine Taoist Ji. Naturally, they couldn't care less and all spoke up to plead for the Wine Taoist.
Hearing everyone pleading for Wine Daoist, the Seventh Desolate's Will of the Heavens knew that this was not the best time to kill Wine Daoist. Otherwise, many of the Seventh Desolate's experts would be disappointed.
The Will Of The Heavenly Way glanced coldly at the Wine Taoist. Then, he reached out with his palm. A five-colored light instantly enveloped the Wine Taoist and sealed his cultivation.
The Wine Taoist did not let go of the Will Of The Heavenly Way's actions. He allowed his cultivation to be sealed.
With his cultivation sealed, the Will Of The Heavenly Way looked at the Wine Taoist and snorted. "Hmph, I'll spare your life this time. Go to the Black Prison and think it through. Come and see me when you've thought it through. Men, lock the Wine Taoist in the Black Prison. Without my orders, no one is allowed to approach or visit him."
In the end, he did not kill the Wine Taoist. Instead, he sealed his cultivation and locked him in the Black Prison.
