Mu Tai said. Upon hearing this, Luo Li and Hong Lian had a strange look in their eyes. As for the other Sector Lords, after a short moment of silence, they nodded in agreement.
"I agree with Mu Tai."
"I agree too."
The Sector Lords nodded in agreement. In fact, this was not a difficult decision. Previously, the Sector Lords felt that there was no hope for Xiao Chen and Hong Xiu. Hence, they shifted their focus to Mu Fan. As for Mu Fan's actions during this period of time, the Sector Lords had adopted a conniving attitude.
Since it had already happened, regardless of whether it was right or wrong, and regardless of whether they regretted it or not, it was impossible to undo it. At least, Xiao Chen and Hachibara Senkai had definitely developed a misunderstanding. Since that was the case, they could only continue down this path to the end.
None of the Sector Lords were indecisive people. Once they made their decision, they quickly reached a consensus. Other than Luo Li and Hong Xiu, the rest of the Sector Lords agreed with Mu Tai's suggestion.
Xiao Chen was going to be severely punished. However, the Sixth Realm Lord, Zuo Ting, slowly said, "Xiao Chen can be severely punished. However, I feel that we can punish Hong Xiu slightly."
Xiao Chen might not be able to stay alive, but Hong Xiu could be spared because of her identity and the fact that she had formed the Heavenly Immortal Residence.
After hearing Zuo Ting's words, Hong Lian's expression turned slightly better. Compared to Xiao Chen, Hong Lian was naturally more concerned about Hong Xiu. After hearing Zuo Ting's words, Hong Lian naturally did not have any objections.
The Sector Lords had made their decision. At the same time, outside the Celestial prison, Xiao Chen and Mu Fan were still facing each other without giving in.
Mu Fan wanted to use this opportunity to kill Xiao Chen. However, Xiao Chen was also determined to kill Mu Fan. Neither of them gave in. However, the Sector Lords had not spoken yet. Hence, it was impossible for Mu Fan to use this opportunity to kill Xiao Chen.
Without the approval of the Heirs of Kunlun, it was obviously impossible for Mu Fan to convict Xiao Chen. The Hachibara Senkai experts present would also not listen to Mu Fan's order to kill Xiao Chen unless the Sector Lords ordered it.
Just as the two of them were in a stalemate, just as everyone was curious about how the Sector Lords would deal with Xiao Chen, Mu Tai's indifferent voice suddenly came from the sky. "Let's go!"
"Xiao Chen, you wantonly killed your fellow disciples. Your crime is punishable by death. According to the rules of the Sect, you should be executed immediately. However, on account of your previous contributions to the Hachibara Senkai, you will be spared. You will be crippled of your cultivation and expelled from the Hachibara Senkai."
The result that everyone had been waiting for finally came. Following Mu Tai's words, everyone present had different expressions on their faces.
A cold smile flashed across Mu Fan's face. Crippling of his cultivation and expelling him from the Hachibara Senkai. This way, it would be easy for Mu Fan to kill Xiao Chen.
In the end, the Sector Lords chose to punish Xiao Chen severely. During the entire process, Luo Li did not say a word. Obviously, he had silently agreed.
Luo Li had saved Xiao Chen's life before. However, at that time, Xiao Chen was useful to the Hachibara Senkai, so Luo Li had saved him. However, now, Xiao Chen had developed hatred for the Hachibara Senkai. As such, not only would he be useless to the Hachibara Senkai, but he would also become a dangerous existence.
For the sake of the entire Hachibara Senkai, Luo Li could only choose to give up on Xiao Chen. No matter what, in Luo Li's heart, the Hachibara Senkai would always be the most important. It was his life's work.
Even Luo Li had chosen to give up on Xiao Chen. In the eyes of the crowd, Xiao Chen's fate was already sealed.
Compared to the cold smile on Mu Fan's face, Ye Xiao, who was standing not far away from Xiao Chen, sighed helplessly. In his opinion, Xiao Chen was definitely going to die this time.
Not only Ye Xiao, but Guan Hong, Fu Rui, Quan Feng, Qiu Ru, and Lu Xiao, who were not present, also had the same thought.
Although they were not present, Mu Tai's words had clearly spread throughout the entire Hachibara Senkai. Everyone knew that the Sector Lords were going to punish Xiao Chen.
"Xiao Chen, let's see what you can do this time." Mu Fan said indifferently as he looked coldly at Xiao Chen. Soon, he shouted in a deep voice.
"Take him down, cripple his cultivation, and chase him out of the Hachibara Senkai."
With so many Hachibara Senkai experts present, there was no need for the Sector Lords to act personally. Those Immortal Emperor Realm elders were more than enough to take down Xiao Chen and cripple his cultivation.
Long Qing, Xuanyuan Ling, Wine Daoist, and the others, who had been standing beside Xiao Chen, had a grim expression on their faces when they saw the outcome.
They did not expect the Sector Lords to be so heartless. Everyone knew what Xiao Chen had done for the Hachibara Senkai. But this time, the Sector Lords did not care about their past relationship and directly crippled Xiao Chen's cultivation.
Although they said that they would spare Xiao Chen's life, once Xiao Chen's cultivation was crippled, how long would he be able to live? Given Mu Fan's character, how could he let Xiao Chen continue to live?
The Sector Lords must have thought of this, but they still made such a decision. Just because Xiao Chen had killed several heaven's prides from the First Realm?
Their hearts were heavy. The current situation was almost certain death. However, Long Qing, Xuanyuan Ling, and Wine Daoist had no intention of backing down. Even if they were to die, they would not leave Xiao Chen behind, just like how Xiao Chen would never leave them behind.
Compared to the tension and heaviness of the three, Xiao Chen was unusually calm after hearing the news.
Although he had guessed that this might be the outcome, Xiao Chen couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart when he heard it.
This was what it meant to be in a superior position. They could decide your life and death with a single word. In the eyes of the Sector Lords, what Xiao Chen had done in the past was not important. What they cared about was whether Xiao Chen could still be used by the Hachibara Senkai in the future.
Now, the Sector Lords felt that Xiao Chen might not be useful to the Hachibara Senkai in the future, so they did not hesitate to destroy him.
Hearing Mu Fan's words, Xiao Chen quickly laughed out loud and said, "Haha, good. What a good excuse to spare one's life. In that case, I don't have to worry about anything. From today onwards, I, Xiao Chen, will withdraw from the Hachibara Senkai."
Xiao Chen was bitterly disappointed in the Hachibara Senkai, but he did not want to do anything to the Hachibara Senkai. After all, if it wasn't for Luo Li, Xiao Chen might have died long ago.
It was undeniable that Luo Li and the other Sector Lords were selfish, but it was not entirely correct to say that they were wrong. They were in a different position, so they naturally saw things from a different perspective. With the status of Luo Li and the other Sector Lords, their decision was not wrong, because they were all thinking for the Hachibara Senkai. In front of the Hachibara Senkai, Xiao Chen's life and death was too insignificant.
