As long as Xiao Chen was dealt with, everything would be easily solved. After the discussion between Du Yi and his five direct disciples, a series of sinister schemes were quickly born. In the end, Du Yi sneered and said, "Don't worry about it.
"Good, good. This time, I will definitely let you, Xiao Chen, know how to write the word 'regret'. Let's do it this way. You guys can start immediately."
They already had a plan to deal with Xiao Chen. If this plan succeeded, not only would Xiao Chen have to leave the Punishment Hall with his tail between his legs, but he would also be severely punished.
Unaware that Du Yi was already preparing to deal with him, Xiao Chen was filled with helplessness after returning to the cave dwelling from the Punishment Hall. He had originally planned to cultivate in the Ancient Saint Sect, but now it seemed that there would be a lot of trouble.
"I was used as a tool." Xiao Chen sighed softly as he sat by the lake in the cave dwelling.
As Xiao Chen muttered to himself, Xiao Sheng's figure also floated out from Xiao Chen's body. His slightly ethereal figure floated in the air as he looked at Xiao Chen with a faint smile on his face.
"You brat, your life isn't just about cultivation. Although you were used as a tool by that brat Chen Yu this time, it's not without benefits for you. Do you know why the experts in the world all choose to establish their own sects in the end? It's because the strength of an individual is ultimately insignificant. Not to mention a Saint, even a Quasi-saint would find it difficult to fight against a sect with his own strength. Take the Ancient Saint Sect for example. Although they don't have a Quasi-saint, can a Quasi-saint destroy the Ancient Saint Sect? "
"Strength and power always go hand in hand. You've just entered the First Sacred Palace. If you can defeat Du Yi and monopolize the power of the First Sacred Palace, there will only be benefits for you."
Hearing Xiao Sheng's words, Xiao Chen replied snappily. "What benefits can there be? Instead of fighting for power, it's better to spend more time on cultivation. "
"What a blockhead. Let me ask you, do you plan to barge into the Sacred Yin Sect alone in the future to rescue Gu Lingyao? Without power, who would listen to your orders? Do you think that you alone can make the Sacred Yin Sect lower their heads? "
"Do you know why the people of the Skyriver Continent are so afraid of the Holy Sons? In addition to their own strength, it was also because they had all the power in their hands. Take Chen Yu for example. Although he looked lazy, who in the entire First Sacred Palace would dare to disobey his orders? This is power. "
"You have to remember, kid. There are many things in this world that you can't accomplish alone. Sometimes, the weak have their uses. Haven't you heard that ants can kill an elephant?"
Under Xiao Sheng's persuasion, Xiao Chen gradually untied the knot in his heart. Moreover, at this point, Xiao Chen seemed to have no other choice. After chatting with Xiao Sheng for a while by the lake, Xiao Chen finally stood up and smiled again.
"You're right, and blindly running away isn't my character. Since I'm destined to be on the opposite side of Du Yi, I might as well take the initiative to attack."
Chen Yu had already placed the power of the First Sacred Palace in front of him. If he didn't take it, wouldn't he be a fool? Being able to monopolize the power of the First Sacred Palace as a Quasi-Holy Son was probably only possible in the First Sacred Palace. The power of the other three Sacred Palaces was firmly in the hands of the Holy Sons.
With the knot in his heart untied, Xiao Chen was suddenly enlightened. He rested in the cave for a day, and early the next morning, Xiao Chen brought Old Hei and Elder Master Bai to the Punishment Hall.
Since Du Yi had no intention of handing over to him, Xiao Chen could only use his own method to control the Punishment Hall.
Xiao Chen didn't know much about the Punishment Hall of the First Sacred Palace, and Chen Yu hadn't mentioned it to him. When he brought the two old men to the main hall of the Punishment Hall, Xiao Chen discovered that the Punishment Hall was empty today. There wasn't a single disciple, and only two half-Saint deacons of the Punishment Hall were present.
Old Hei and Elder Master Bai clearly knew the two half-Saint deacons of the Punishment Hall. Old Hei smiled and greeted the two half-Saint deacons as soon as they met.
"Meng Chen, Lu Yuan, you two old fellows didn't leave?"
The disciples of the Punishment Hall weren't present, and only the two half-Saint deacons remained in the Punishment Hall. Hearing Old Hei's teasing, the half-Saint deacon called Meng Chen said indifferently, "We are deacons of the Punishment Hall, not Du Yi's guards. Since the Punishment Hall has been replaced, we will naturally obey Xiao Chen's orders from now on."
Meng Chen and Lu Yuan were both half-Saint, so they obviously didn't have much scruples about Du Yi. Moreover, Xiao Chen had already appointed Xiao Chen as the Hall Master of the Punishment Hall of the First Sacred Palace. According to the rules, the two of them could only obey Xiao Chen's orders, and didn't need to care about Du Yi's existence.
Hearing Meng Chen's words, Xiao Chen, who was sitting on the main seat, smiled slightly. He had become a general without an army as soon as he took office. All of this was obviously Du Yi's doing. Fortunately, the two half-Saint deacons, Meng Chen and Lu Yuan, had stayed behind. In this way, he had four half-Saint experts under his command, which was enough.
Feeling much better, Xiao Chen politely invited Meng Chen and Lu Yuan to take a seat. Then, he looked at Old Hei and Elder Master Bai and said with a smile, "Old Hei, Elder Master Bai, please take a seat. We are all on the same side, so there's no need to be polite."
There were only five people in the Punishment Hall. After the five of them took their seats in the main hall, Xiao Chen looked at Meng Chen and Lu Yuan and asked.
"Deacons, I wonder if you can briefly explain the situation of the Punishment Hall of the First Sacred Palace?"
First, Xiao Chen needed to understand the situation of the Punishment Hall. Hearing this, Lu Yuan, who had been silent all this time, immediately nodded and replied, "Of course, there's no problem."
Soon, with Lu Yuan's explanation, Xiao Chen roughly understood the situation of the Punishment Hall of the First Sacred Palace.
First, the purpose of the Punishment Hall's existence was self-evident. Its authority was also very clear. It was in charge of the rewards and punishments of the First Sacred Palace. Any disciple or deacon who violated the rules of the First Sacred Palace would be held accountable by the Punishment Hall.
There was no need to elaborate on that. What interested Xiao Chen more was the composition of the Punishment Hall.
According to Lu Yuan, the Punishment Hall of the First Sacred Palace had a Hall Master, who was Xiao Chen. Under him, there were two Deputy Hall Masters, who were the two Half-saint deacons, Meng Chen and Lu Yuan.
Below them, there were five law enforcement teams. Each law enforcement team had a total of twenty members, and one of them was a captain.
These five law enforcement teams were all made up of disciples. There were a total of one hundred people, and these were the members of the Punishment Hall of the First Sacred Palace.
After understanding this, Xiao Chen nodded slightly. Then, a chill flashed in his eyes and said, "Today is my first time in office, and I have become a commander without an army. How about this, I'll have to trouble the two seniors to go and find the members of the Punishment Hall one by one. I have something to say."
