The hedonistic young master, who was running, suddenly stopped and fell to the ground, motionless. He was dead.
"Everyone, my son has made a grave mistake and has been punished by me. Everyone should calm down and protect the justice of Heaven and Earth, fight for a fair society, and build a harmonious city. Everyone has a responsibility, and I am no exception."
"I didn't teach my son well and caused the ladies to suffer. It's my fault, so I apologize to everyone here. Please accept my bow."
House Head Qiu knelt on the ground and bowed to the crowd.
When the Qiu Family members behind him saw him kneel, they didn't dare stand and followed suit.
"Alright, it's over now. Get up," House Head Zhao comforted as he helped House Head Qiu to his feet.
Then, he looked at the ladies and said, "Ladies, you can go back now. You're free. Leave Xiao Fang to us for a grand funeral. His victimization brought about a calamity. Now that this calamity has been killed, it has given the world a little more clarity. This is also to tell everyone that evil cannot prevail over good. Those who do evil will receive retribution sooner or later."
"Thank you, House Heads."
"Thank you, House Heads."
Many of the onlookers knelt on the ground, praising the House Heads for their fairness.
Chen Zhifu slowly backed away and returned to the crowd, returning to Xiao Yang's side.
"Let's go. We'll leave the matters here to them. With this precedent, anyone who wants to commit evil will have to think twice. " Xiao Yang spoke slowly, then turned and left the crowd. He didn't pay any attention to the bustling crowd behind him, as if he'd accomplished something and left in a low-key manner.
Flame City wasn't far from the Poison Sect. Starting from Martial Sun City, they'd already covered half of the distance. They only had half of the journey left before they reached the Poison Sect.
There was a transportation formation between Flame City and the Poison Sect. The three pavilion elders had used it to get here, but using it required a lot of energy. Ordinary people couldn't afford it.
Chen Zhifu was a low-key, invisible tycoon. He didn't have much, but he had plenty of money.
Although he wore a plain robe all day long and looked no different from an ordinary person, he was so rich that even Xiao Yang could not compare to him.
"Cousin, I remember that the city gate is in that direction. Where are we going?"
Lan Jiaoye showed a dumbfounded expression. She looked silly and cute, very cute.
Gu Qianqian snorted, "Big Brother Xiao Yang naturally has his own considerations. We just need to follow him with peace of mind. What's the point of thinking so much? Big Brother Xiao Yang, don't worry, Qianqian will follow you. "
Disgusting.
All they knew was to show their loyalty and fight for affection. That was enough.
Lan Jiaoye was very angry. She angrily glared at Gu Qianqian. Then, the two women continued to bicker.
Gu Shanqing, Li Qinghe, and the others were already used to it.
Along the way, only Chen Zhifu was secretly pleased with himself, as if he was also useful. To be able to be put in an important position meant that he had received affirmation and recognition.
Previously, he had been in the limelight, and his heart was still warm.
When he thought about how he would be of use in the future, he felt even more satisfied and proud.
Perhaps others didn't understand Xiao Yang's intentions, but he couldn't be any clearer. This was the direction of the transportation formation. They were planning to use it to teleport directly to the Poison Sect.
This was something worth supporting. This way, they could avoid the arduous days of traveling day and night and reach the Poison Sect as soon as possible.
After the time it took to brew a cup of tea, they arrived at the formation.
This transportation formation was an important protective item. Countless resources had been used to construct it, and its construction cost wasn't cheap. Maintaining it in the later stages required even more manpower, wealth, and resources.
A transportation formation that cost a lot of money was naturally the most expensive of all. Its security measures were also very tight.
As soon as they arrived, they were immediately intercepted.
"Who goes there? Do you have a pass? "
A guard walked up the mountain in front of the transportation tower and sternly questioned Xiao Yang's group.
This person was wearing golden armor. The armor was an Earth Grade Magic Treasure and was not an ordinary item. This guard's strength was even more powerful. He was a second level Martial Ancestor Realm cultivator. If he was an expert, he would be placed here to guard the Teleportation Array. This showed how important this Teleportation Array was to the Poison Sect.
Xiao Yang's group cupped their fists at the armored guard and said respectfully, "Senior brother from the Poison Sect, we're all new members of the Poison Sect. Please take care of us, senior brother. As long as you check our names, you'll be able to find the relevant information."
The Poison Sect would note them as people who'd been chosen. It was just like how they'd been informed by words and voices in the sky when they were in the various large cities.
When the armored guard heard this, his stern expression softened a little. He slowly said, "So it's you newcomers. Alright, don't say that I'm not taking care of you. I'll go check it out right now. If you're lying to me, I'll cripple you. Everyone, tell me your names."
Xiao Yang's group successively reported their names.
After the armored guard memorized their names, he hurriedly left. Don't ask him how he could remember their names. At his cultivation level, his memory was naturally astonishing.
After the armored guard left, Lan Jiaoye pouted and angrily said, "Cousin, why does Flame City have a transportation formation but our Martial Yang City doesn't? We had to walk such a long way. The Poison Sect is too unfair."
"Shh, Seventh Young Miss, be careful with your words. The Poison Sect is a colossus. Don't say anything bad about them. If others hear you, we'll be in big trouble," Chen Zhifu hastily reminded her.
After all, many people took pride in being able to enter the Poison Sect. If they stayed in the Poison Sect for a long time, they'd even consider the Poison Sect their second home. Those people would definitely not agree with saying that the Poison Sect was unfair.
Lan Jiaoye stuck out her tongue and hurriedly shut her mouth.
Xiao Yang finally answered Lan Jiaoye's question. "The cost of constructing a transportation formation is related to the distance. The further the distance, the greater the cost. Martial Yang City is the furthest away from the Poison Sect, so the cost is also the highest. If the benefits don't meet their expectations, they naturally won't build it."
"There's such a thing as benefits?"
Gu Qianqian blinked her beautiful eyes and looked curiously at Xiao Yang.
They all knew that the transportation formation wasn't for commercial use. Not just anyone could use it, so where did the benefits come from?
Xiao Yang found it a little funny. Naturally, he understood her doubts. He explained, "The benefits aren't just in terms of wealth, but also in terms of managing the various large cities."
