Hall of Punishment
Figures rose into the air from various places in the South Sea Sword Sect, flying towards the Hall of Punishment.
In less than fifteen minutes, the entire Hall of Punishment was packed with people. Swish!
Swish! Swish!
Swish! Suddenly, another three streaks of light shot over and landed on the ground. They were Enforcer Ni of the Hall of Punishment, while the other two were Enforcer Lu and Enforcer Fang.
The three of them were all second-generation disciples. Although they were not core members of the sect who had reached Primordial Casting, they still held great authority.
"Greetings to the three enforcers!"
All the disciples hurriedly bowed when they saw the three enforcers arrive.
"Enforcer Ni, Luo Zheng and Huang Wei have been brazen, imprisoning and slaughtering their fellow disciples. Enforcer Ni, please uphold justice for the disciples of the Golden Sword faction!"
"That's right. The Cloud Sword faction has used the power and status of the sect master to suppress the other disciples. They've committed a heinous crime!"
"Luo Zheng hasn't even become the direct disciple of the sect master yet, yet he's already so rude and unreasonable. If he gains an official status in the future, how can we, regular disciples, survive?"
For a moment, the crowd seemed to surge with anger and rage.
Actually, the disciples who spoke were all from the Golden Sword faction. They had already prepared their excuses after receiving instructions from their first senior brother, Yuan Wenan.
However, the disciples from the other factions said nothing.
The Golden Sword faction had been tyrannical in the sect for a very long time. Most of the inner disciples had been suppressed by them in the past, so it was a joke to say that the Cloud Sword faction was suppressing them now.
"Alright, quiet down. The Hall of Punishment is a solemn and dignified place. How can you make a ruckus here? I will make a fair decision on this matter. "
Enforcer Ni calmly called out and walked straight into the Hall of Punishment.
"Enforcer Ni, the matter this time involves the future direct disciple of the sect master. It's a serious matter, even related to the survival of our South Sea Sword Sect in the future. We inner disciples are responsible for inheriting the sect's legacy. Can we enter the Hall of Punishment to watch as well? "
At this moment, Yuan Wenan walked out as well and asked expressionlessly.
"Enforcer Lu, enforcer Fang, what do you think?" Enforcer Ni smiled as he looked at the other two.
"The matter this time involves the disciples of two factions. It's a good thing to have a public trial and all the inner disciples bear witness!"
Protector Lu said.
Protector Fang also nodded and agreed.
As long as they could make a big deal out of this matter, when the crowd's emotions surged, not only would they be able to deal a blow to Luo Zheng, even Sect Leader Yun Jian would be implicated.
"Since Guardian Lu of the Ceremonial Hall and Guardian Fang of the Merit Hall have no objections, then you may come in. But remember, no noise is allowed in the Penalty Hall. Violators will be thrown into the water dungeon for a month!"
Protector Ni said righteously and walked in first.
The Punishment Hall was incomparably large and solemn. It was an entire 3km in length and width, and its enormous pillars towered as if they were holding up the sky.
The South Sea Sword Sea was a place where the Southern Sword Sect had moved from the center of the Yuanwu World after its fall. They wanted to regain their glory and return to the center of the world, so the buildings in the sect were all extremely grand.
As soon as he entered the Punishment Hall, he saw Luo Zheng and Huang Wei standing at the side. Wei Zhang, Wei Hua, and the other four disciples were covered in blood as they knelt on the ground.
The five of them had wounds all over their bodies. One of the disciples had even lost an arm.
"What's going on?!"
Protector Ni shouted angrily when he saw this.
A deacon disciple hurriedly came forward and reported, "Protector Ni, Huang Wei and Luo Zheng are holding these five disciples. They said that they injured Liu Liu during their training and robbed his Musk Crystal. Later, when Liu Liu returned to the sect, he was injured again when he tried to reason with them. They even made false accusations, causing Liu Liu and the others to be thrown into the water dungeon."
"Wasn't there a conclusion to this matter long ago? Why are they making noise again? "
Protector Ni asked coldly.
"These two people imprisoned Wei Zhang and the other four disciples and brought them here. They said that they wanted them to voluntarily retract their confessions. But I've asked them, and Wei Zhang and the others said that there was no such thing! "
The deacon disciple pointed at Luo Zheng and Huang Wei and said.
"Luo Zheng, Huang Wei, how dare you! Relying on your status as the Sect Leader's disciple, you actually dared to injure your fellow disciples and even imprisoned them. You're really audacious!"
Protector Ni flew into a rage, "Hurry up and release the five of them to lessen their crimes!"
"Protector Ni, as soon as you came in, you didn't listen to the testimony of these five people. You just listened to the words of this deacon disciple and concluded that it was our fault?"
Luo Zheng said with an indifferent expression.
"You imprisoned your fellow disciples and seriously injured them one by one. You want to force them to confess. Why do you still need to ask for testimony? Let them go!"
Protector Ni's eyes flashed coldly as he said harshly.
"Luo Zheng, relying on the Sect Leader's favor, you bullied and trampled on your fellow disciples. You even seriously injured my five disciples. You've committed a heinous crime. If a person like you becomes the Sect Leader's personal disciple, I'll never accept it! "
Yuan Wenan's face twisted and he said harshly.
"The Sect Leader's disciple is taking advantage of his position to bully others. Let them go!"
Seeing Yuan Wenan come forward, the other disciples of the Golden Sword Sect also shouted and cursed. The whole Punishment Hall was almost overturned.
"Humph, how can we let them go when we haven't made things clear? Since so many people are here, let's let them explain the situation in front of everyone. "
