Over a hundred former disciples of the Punishment Hall knelt outside Xiao Chen's dwelling as cries and shouts constantly rang out. They also blurted out Xiao Chen's crimes one after another. For a moment, Xiao Chen seemed to have become an unpardonable villain that everyone had the right to punish.
These people had all been instructed by Du Yi to come here. While they were crying and complaining, Chen Yu, who was inside the dwelling, spoke with a trace of anger on his face.
"He did it on purpose. Xiao Chen definitely did it on purpose. He was certain that I would definitely stand on his side, so he purposely angered these disciples and gave Du Yi the opportunity to complain to me."
Xiao Chen could have used a gentle method to resolve this matter, but he did not. Instead, he chose the most direct, violent, and unreasonable method to deal with this matter.
As a result, not only did he infuriate these former disciples of the Punishment Hall, but he also gave Du Yi an opportunity to make things difficult for Chen Yu.
Xiao Chen had turned the tables on him. Chen Yu had used Xiao Chen to push Xiao Chen into the teeth of the storm. Now, Xiao Chen was giving Chen Yu a taste of his own medicine, which also put Chen Yu in a dilemma.
When Yi Xu heard Chen Yu's unhappy curses, she indifferently said, "Who can you blame? If you want to blame someone, blame senior brother Xiao Chen, whom you wanted to scheme against."
He had no intention of speaking up for Chen Yu at all. Chen Yu turned his head and said with displeasure, "Say, Yi Xu, who exactly do you belong to? Why do you keep speaking up for junior Xiao Chen?"
"You should think about how to resolve this matter first. I believe that Du Yi will be here soon," Yi Xu said indifferently. Upon hearing this, Yi Xu nonchalantly replied before turning around and leaving. He had no intention of sharing Chen Yu's burden.
While Chen Yu's cave abode was being surrounded, Xiao Chen had already returned to his own cave abode and was lying in the courtyard. He was not cultivating. Instead, he was lying lazily on a recliner while Fei Mei, An Lan, and the other two girls surrounded him and massaged his body.
Si Ju asked worriedly as she massaged Xiao Chen's legs. Xiao Chen was surrounded by the four women and enjoyed their service with his eyes slightly closed.
"Young Master, I heard that those disciples went to the Holy Son to complain. Shouldn't Young Master go and explain? It would be troublesome if the Holy Son misunderstood. "
He was a little worried for Xiao Chen. After all, it was one or two people who were suing Xiao Chen at the same time.
Hearing this, Xiao Chen smiled without any worry. "There's no need. Don't worry. Our Holy Son is very wise and powerful. He can distinguish right from wrong."
Xiao Chen was not worried about these people suing him at all. What a joke! It would be strange if Chen Yu believed their nonsense.
Xiao Chen felt very refreshed when he thought about how he had finally won back some ground. It was time for Senior Brother Chen Yu to have a headache.
As Xiao Chen expected, Chen Yu was indeed having a headache. Although he was a Holy Son, there were some things that he could not do too much. This time, so many people had come to sue Xiao Chen. Chen Yu was also having a hard time dealing with it because if he did not know how to act appropriately, the others in the First Sacred Palace would be disappointed.
It was impossible for them to pursue Xiao Chen, let alone make Xiao Chen hand over the Punishment Hall. Therefore, Chen Yu only finished dealing with this matter when it was really late at night.
Threats and promises, carrots and sticks were used to scare off the hundred disciples. Of course, the most difficult one to deal with was naturally Du Yi.
The whole thing was Du Yi's doing behind the scenes. Moreover, just as Yi Xu had said, Du Yi really did visit personally and described how domineering Xiao Chen was and so on. He wanted Chen Yu to take back his previous decision.
Du Yi stayed at Chen Yu's place until late at night before returning to his residence. Seeing that Du Yi had returned, the five personal disciples who had been waiting there asked one after another.
"Senior Brother Du Yi, how was it? What did Lord Holy Son say? "
"Haha, just as you expected, Lord Holy Son did not intend to pursue Xiao Chen and was also on Xiao Chen's side. However, in the end, Lord Holy Son still agreed to give Xiao Chen a month's time. If Xiao Chen does not manage the Punishment Hall well, he will take back his previous decision and let me continue to be in charge of the Punishment Hall."
Previously, Du Yi and the others had expected that Chen Yu would definitely not make things difficult for Xiao Chen because of this matter. Du Yi's goal was also not to make things difficult for Xiao Chen. What he wanted was this sentence from Chen Yu.
Giving Xiao Chen a month's time, if he did not do well, the Punishment Hall would once again be under Du Yi's charge. This was what he wanted.
Of course, Chen Yu had no choice but to give in. If today's matter was not handled well, the First Sacred Palace would definitely be in chaos. At that time, things would only be more troublesome. He could not possibly kill all these disciples, right?
Because of this, Chen Yu had no choice but to give in. This was the result that Du Yi wanted. Causing some chaos in the First Sacred Palace within a month was not a problem for Du Yi at all.
As long as he secretly caused some trouble for Xiao Chen and caused chaos in the First Sacred Palace, the position of the Punishment Hall Master would still belong to Du Yi.
Hearing Du Yi's words, the direct disciple, who had been extremely intelligent before, smiled coldly and said, "In that case, Senior Brother Du Yi can start the operation now."
"Yes, we can start the operation. Xiao Chen is really an idiot. He actually expelled all the disciples of the Punishment Hall. In this way, the Punishment Hall is only left with an empty shell. At this time, with me secretly adding fuel to the fire, I would like to see how Xiao Chen will deal with it. Haha." Du Yi immediately laughed coldly when he heard the direct disciple's words.
Xiao Chen was simply an idiot. In Du Yi's view, Xiao Chen had shot himself in the foot.
There were already many plans. As long as these plans were implemented, the entire First Sacred Palace would be in chaos. At that time, Xiao Chen's Punishment Hall would be needed to suppress and deal with it.
However, Xiao Chen had no other subordinates except for the two Half-saint deacons. Du Yi didn't believe that just the three of them could deal with the chaos caused by his plan.
As long as Xiao Chen couldn't perfectly deal with the following chaos, then according to the agreement between him and Chen Yu, the Punishment Hall would still be under Du Yi's control after a month.
"Pass down the order and let them act according to the plan. Also, you guys personally keep an eye on this matter. Don't make any mistakes." After being secretly excited, Du Yi looked at the five direct disciples below and said.
Just as Du Yi began to act, Chen Yu came to Xiao Chen's cave residence in the middle of the night. Seeing Chen Yu come, Xiao Chen joked with a smile.
"Senior Brother Chen Yu, you came to visit so late at night. Could it be that you want to drink with Junior Brother again?"
