Punishment Hall
Because of the quota, Feng Qianxue was still in the Dynasty's territory.
In this regard, Qin Yichen had always been worried.
Now that he had taken out the Recombination Pill, he believed that the higher-ups in the Taihao Sacred Ground had noticed him.
If he was willing, he could even enter the inner sect Pill Hall!
These days, no one from the Pill Hall came to look for him. Obviously, the higher-ups in the Pill Hall were still studying the formula he gave them.
On this day, early in the morning, Qin Yichen came to the Nan Hao Palace to take some herbs to refine pills.
"Qin Yichen, you're finally here."
At the entrance of the Nan Hao Palace, he met Deacon Dong Yu. He looked anxious and pulled Qin Yichen away. "Quick, follow me."
"The elders have been looking for you for a few days, but I couldn't find you …"
Dong Yu looked at him gloomily. "You didn't sneak out of the Sacred Ground, did you?"
"Uh …"
Qin Yichen scratched the back of his head and laughed.
He was staying in the room named Li Yuanba. No wonder Dong Yu couldn't find him.
"Lord Deacon, is there anything urgent?"
Qin Yichen was quite respectful towards Dong Yu. On the way, he couldn't help but ask.
"It's about Yi Buyan."
Dong Yu sighed.
With just a few words, Qin Yichen more or less knew what was going on.
He killed someone that the Hall Master had taken a liking to.
Although Yi Buyan hadn't been officially accepted as a disciple by Hall Master Xu, the news had already spread.
Everyone knew that it was only a matter of time before one became a disciple.
However, Qin Yichen killed Yi Buyan. This meant that he didn't put Hall Master Xu in his eyes.
If Hall Master Xu didn't do anything, where would he put his face?!
It was necessary to establish his prestige.
If Qin Yichen was not wrong, the reason why he was still safe and sound was probably because the inner sect Pill Hall had blocked Hall Master Xu for him.
As expected.
Dong Yu didn't bring Qin Yichen to the Pill Hall. Instead, they walked towards the most majestic mountain in the sacred ground.
They didn't walk up the mountain. Instead, they came to a large hall at the foot of the mountain.
Punishment Hall.
As the name implied, they were in charge of the punishment of the Holy Land.
The people from the Punishment Hall had a high status in the Sacred Land and were under the jurisdiction of the Sacred Lord.
However, in the past few days, the people from the Punishment Hall had a headache.
Meanwhile, in the Disciplinary Hall, two groups of people were having a heated argument.
The inner sanctum's North Vast Peak was the leader. He wanted the Punishment Hall to arrest the main culprit who killed Yi Buyan.
Originally, the Punishment Hall would have given the Vast North Palace Master some face, but they were obstructed …
Nan Hao Palace!
No one wanted to offend him.
It was the same for those from the Punishment Hall.
They couldn't afford to offend either side. Thus, the people from the Punishment Hall decided to ignore them and let the two sides fight amongst themselves. Whoever won would have the final say.
When Qin Yichen followed Dong Yu to the Punishment Hall, he could smell the gunpowder in the air.
"Elder, Qin Yichen is here."
Dong Yu brought Qin Yichen to the side of an elder from the Pill Hall.
"Mm."
The elder nodded slightly and signaled the two of them to stand behind him.
At that moment, he was the only elder from the Pill Hall in the Punishment Hall. On the side of the Vast North Palace, there was also an elder who was the leader. Hall Master Xu didn't appear.
However, it was obvious that this elder had received Hall Master Xu's instructions.
At the same time, the people who were having a heated argument in the Punishment Hall also calmed down. Everyone's gaze was focused on Qin Yichen.
Qin Yichen also noticed that Lin Pi was whispering something to the elder from the Vast North Palace.
Then, the elder's gaze fell on Qin Yichen.
Instantly, Qin Yichen felt as if needles were piercing his bones. It was as if he was trapped in an ice cellar. Just as he was about to sink into it, the elder in front of him snorted and broke the invisible power that was targeting Qin Yichen.
"He's so young …"
The people from both sides, including those from the Punishment Hall, were a little surprised after looking at him.
Not many people had seen Qin Yichen before.
They were all from the inner sect and had a high status.
However, they already knew about Qin Yichen.
He had killed Yi Buyan, who was at the peak of the Emperor Realm, as a beginner level Emperor Realm cultivator.
Moreover, it was rumored that he practiced both martial and divine arts. He was an Empyrean Martial Artist that was hard to come by in a thousand years!
Perhaps it was because of this that Hall Master Xu hadn't shown himself until now.
Otherwise, with the ability of a Hall Master, killing Qin Yichen was like killing an ant. Even the Vast South Palace couldn't protect him.
Moreover, the news about the Compound Pill had spread throughout the Sacred Land in the past few days.
At first, everyone was surprised. Then, many people's eyes were filled with doubt.
The reason was, of course, that Qin Yichen was too young.
How could such a young man develop such a heaven-defying elixir like the Compound Pill when he was cultivating both Divine and Martial Arts?
Although the Compound Pill had spread, not many people had seen it before. Even the elder from the Vast North Palace had never seen it before.
If the news didn't come from the four elders of the Pill Hall, no one would believe it.
Even so, the crowd was still skeptical of his words.
"Junior Brother Feng, the murderer has appeared. Why don't you take him down?!"
The elder from the Vast North Palace said coldly to the elder from the Punishment Hall.
"Senior Brother Zhou …"
The elder from the Punishment Hall had a bitter expression.
He was from the Vast North Palace. He couldn't disrespect the Vast North Palace.
"That Qin Yichen … Qin Yichen, did you kill Yi Buyan from the same sect?"
He shouted at Qin Yichen. However, when he saw the Pill Hall's elder's ugly face, he couldn't help but soften his tone a little. He wasn't as aggressive as before.
"Yes!"
With the elder from the Pill Hall in front of him, Qin Yichen was full of confidence. He admitted it directly and explained, "However, Yi Buyan and I signed a Life-and-Death Contract when we were on the battle stage. All the seniors and juniors who were there that day can prove it. Life and death are up to fate. How can you say that we killed each other?"
"Hmph, you think you can kill Yi Buyan?"
The elder from the Vast South Palace harrumphed and looked at Dong Yu who was beside Qin Yichen coldly.
Obviously, he suspected that Dong Yu helped Qin Yichen.
Otherwise, no matter how weak Yi Buyan was, he couldn't be killed by a Beginner Level Emperor Realm expert without any resistance.
It didn't make sense.
With that mutated martial spirit, Yi Buyan was already in an invincible position.
Of course, they didn't know that Yi Buyan's mutated Martial Spirit had dissipated under the little bug's power. Yi Buyan couldn't even escape in time.
"Why can't I kill Yi Buyan?"
Qin Yichen looked at him without any fear. He wasn't afraid of the elder from the Vast North Palace.
"Well said!"
