On the Disciplinary Platform.
Yang Ruoxu stood with his head held high, as if he could not feel the pain in his body. He spoke loudly about what he had seen and heard all these years.
There was a commotion in the crowd.
"Shut up!"
Zhang Hua shouted and interrupted Yang Ruoxu. At the same time, he raised the Disciplinary Whip and whipped Yang Ruoxu continuously.
Every whip was so deep that his bones could be seen!
Yang Ruoxu's body would tremble.
However, he refused to give in. He looked coldly at Zhang Hua and said loudly, "I went to pay my respects to Junior Brother Su because I knew he was innocent!
"He was not wrong. He did not let the academy or the Patriarch down! It was the Patriarch who let him down. It was the Patriarch who wanted to take his creation, Qinglian's body. He wanted his life. He had no choice but to resist!
"Back then, I was the one who brought Junior Brother Su into the academy. If not for me, he would not have suffered such a calamity. Even if I, Yang Ruoxu, die here today, I will clear his name! "
"Shut up!"
"Don't let him continue!"
The group of Perfected Immortals shouted.
"If you don't believe me, you can invite the Patriarch over. I will confront him face to face!" Yang Ruoxu sneered.
Zhang Hua raised the Disciplinary Whip again and shouted, "You are a traitor. How dare you confront the Patriarch!"
Yang Ruoxu's body was almost torn apart by the Disciplinary Whip in Zhang Hua's hand. There was a pool of blood at his feet, and his flesh was scattered everywhere.
Even so, Yang Ruoxu relied on the Noble Spirit in his chest and the stubbornness in his heart. He did not back down. His gaze was firm!
Princess Chi Hong cried and shouted.
If not for Mo Qing holding her back, she would have rushed forward and suffered with Yang Ruoxu.
The disciples of the Academy below looked at this scene with complicated expressions on their faces.
Many of them did not understand.
Why?
Was the truth so important?
Why was he so persistent?
Why was he so stubborn? Why was he so stubborn?
Some academy disciples even mocked softly and said disdainfully, "What a fool."
Zhang Hua's eyes flashed fiercely. He suddenly went forward and slapped Yang Ruoxu's glabella. He grabbed!
Yang Ruoxu's Dao Fruit had landed in Zhang Hua's palm!
"You're still being stubborn? Watch me cripple your dao fruit!"
Zhang Hua exerted force in his palm and condensed Spiritual Aether. With a cracking sound, he crushed Yang Ruoxu's fruit of the way. Countless Great Path techniques dissipated between heaven and earth, and the pieces of the fruit of the way fell to the ground.
Heaven and Earth suddenly fell into a temporary standstill.
Mo Qing opened her mouth slightly. She did not expect Zhang Hua to be so ruthless as to destroy Yang Ruoxu's Dao Fruit!
Crippling Yang Ruoxu's cultivation was even crueler than killing him.
Even if he could keep his life, it would be very difficult for him to survive in the cultivation world if he was expelled from the academy and had no cultivation.
"Ruo Xu!"
Princess Chi Hong let out a sorrowful cry as she broke free from Mo Qing's grasp and rushed to Yang Ruoxu's side.
After losing the Dao fruit, Yang Ruoxu's aura became even weaker.
Originally, he was heavily injured, but he still had the Dao Fruit in his Spiritual Sea, so he was able to keep himself alive.
And now, this anger was about to dissipate.
"Chi Hong … I'm sorry."
Yang Ruoxu lowered her head and looked at Chi Hong who was paralyzed at her feet. Deep guilt and reluctance flashed in her eyes.
Of course, Zhang Hua could kill Yang Ruoxu directly, but that would not be enough to vent his hatred.
He could only display his capabilities by making Yang Ruoxu submit to him in front of everyone and confess to the Patriarch of the academy!
Initially, Zhang Hua could not do anything to Yang Ruoxu. However, when he saw Princess Chi Hong looking at her abdomen, his heart skipped a beat and his lips curled.
"Yang Ruoxu, is it so difficult for you to confess?"
Suddenly, Zhang Hua spoke, "Even if you don't want to think for yourself, shouldn't you think for your child?"
Yang Ruoxu's expression changed as he used the last of his strength to grit his teeth and holler, "Zhang Hua, what are you trying to do! This is my matter and has nothing to do with others. Don't implicate the innocent! "
"Fufu."
When Zhang Hua saw Yang Ruoxu's reaction, he was even more pleased as he chuckled. "Princess Chi Hong and her child are not innocent."
Zhang Hua realized that he had grasped Yang Ruoxu's weakness and continued, "This child is a sinner the moment he's born and will definitely be looked down upon and bullied. What should I do? Why don't I take him under my wing and personally teach him the Dao? "
"I'll also tell him that his father is a sinner who betrayed his master and ancestors. He's a traitor of the academy. I'll tell him not to be like his father in the future …"
"Zhang Hua, how dare you …"
"Pfft!"
Yang Ruoxu was so agitated that he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Kneel and confess your sins!"
With a smile on his face, Zhang Hua pointed in front of him and said a few words indifferently.
"Enough!"
Mo Qing could not stand it anymore. She stepped forward and said loudly, "Zhang Hua, let's not talk about whether Junior Brother Yang is telling the truth. How dare you threaten him with his child? Are you still human?"
Zhang Hua glanced at Mo Qing and frowned slightly.
As one of the Four Fairies, Mo Qing was famous not only in Qiankun Academy but also in the Nine Firmament Immortal Realm.
"I heard that Senior Sister Mo Qing has an affair with the traitor Su Zimo …"
At this moment, a voice came from the crowd.
"I think so. Senior Sister Mo Qing has a good relationship with Su Zimo in the past. She's even stood up for him a few times."
"Senior Sister Mo Qing is so protective of Yang Ruoxu. Does she believe Su Zimo and suspect the Patriarch?"
"So what if she's a Painting Immortal? She can't suspect the Patriarch! "
A commotion broke out in the crowd.
Mo Qing looked around her.
Many cultivators began to look at her in a different light.
This was the same look they had when they looked at Yang Ruoxu just now.
They were like a pack of hungry wolves that wanted to pounce on her and tear her to pieces!
Zhang Hua smiled at Mo Qing and said, "Senior Sister Mo Qing, as you can see, everyone is suspicious of you. Why don't you explain yourself?"
"As long as you admit that Su Zimo is a traitor and draw a line between you and him, we won't make things difficult for you today."
Mo Qing was furious. She retorted, "I won't admit it. What are you going to do about it?"
"Then you're still a traitor!"
"Tie her up and tear her face apart!"
Two of the fairies said fiercely.
For many years, the reputation of the fairies in the academy was occupied by the Painting Immortal alone.
Mo Qing was always high and mighty. No matter how hard they worked, they could never compare to her and could only look up to her.
But now, they finally saw a chance to pull her down from her pedestal!
"Come on!"
Mo Qing slapped her storage bag and took out her sketchbook. She said in a deep voice, "Today, I'll stand with Junior Brother Yang!"
"I won't surrender. If anyone dares to touch Junior Brother Yang again, don't blame me for disregarding our relationship as fellow disciples!"
"Mo Qing, you're betraying the academy!"
Zhang Hua hollered.
Mo Qing took a deep breath and said the most rebellious and courageous thing she had ever said since she started cultivating!
"Now that Qiankun Academy has become like this, so what if I betray it?"
