Everyone else was greatly moved, but Chu Chen was very calm. Although he had slapped Ya Xue several times in Jade Flower Valley that day, making her look extremely miserable, he had not really hit her hard, so how could she not be alive?
It was obvious that Yao Jinghai, the Eldest Senior Brother of the Outer Sect, wanted to use the power of the Sect to pressure him.
"Harming a fellow disciple?" Chu Chen sneered, "She is just an Outer Sect Disciple's lowly servant girl. Her status cannot be compared to a true disciple's. To put it bluntly, she is just like a dog raised by a Sect Disciple. Beating her is teaching her how to serve her master. How can you say harming a fellow disciple?"
Chu Chen's words caused You Hua's face to turn pale. She and Ya Xue were the maids of Yao Jinghai, the senior apprentice brother of the outer sect. Although they usually acted like they were superior to others, and even ordinary inner sect disciples had to be respectful when they saw them, You Hua was different.
However, the fact that they were lowly maids of Outer Sect Disciples was a pain in their hearts. She never thought that Chu Chen would publicly expose her scars, causing her beautiful face to twist in anger.
"Let's not talk about whether I hit her hard or not. Even if I hit her hard and killed Ya Xue, it's just killing an Outer Sect Disciple's dog. The Sect actually wants to punish me for this?" Chu Chen shouted angrily, "Do you still have any Sect rules!?"
At this moment, not only did You Hua's expression change, but even the Law Enforcement Elder's expression became extremely ugly. He had been the Law Enforcement Elder for many years, but this was the first time he had been questioned by a disciple in anger. He felt like he was losing face.
The Outer Sect Disciples who were watching passionately all felt the same towards Chu Chen's question. Normally, when they saw Yao Jinghai's maids acting arrogantly and bullying the Outer Sect Disciples, they all felt dissatisfied.
Now that Chu Chen had pointed out their status, the Outer Sect Disciples couldn't help but feel happy.
"Well said, even an Outer Sect Disciple's maid is so arrogant. They are the ones who don't follow the rules!"
"What right do they have to be compared to us? Beating them is disciplining them!"
"If you beat them to death, throw them out of the mountain gate and denounce them for their crimes. This is breaking the rules!"
The more people there were, the braver they became. One by one, the outer sect disciples joined the army of supporting Chu Chen and denouncing Yao Jinghai, their Eldest Senior Brother's maid.
Elder of Law Enforcement suddenly felt that he had made a wrong decision. His mistake was that he had come to Chu Chen's courtyard in such an open and aboveboard manner, wanting to "arrest and bring him to justice".
In the end, they didn't expect that this young man would be so tough and smart. Faintly, he actually stirred up the thoughts in the bottom of the hearts of all the outer sect disciples, driving the "momentum" of all the outer sect disciples!
"Enough!"
The Law Enforcement Elder's eyes were bloodshot. He let out a thunderous roar that shook the entire area. All the Outer Sect disciples felt their Qi and blood churn. Some of the weaker disciples felt their legs give way and fell to the ground.
The Law Enforcement Elder could only use his domineering strength to suppress the outer sect disciples. His lightning-like eyes covered Chu Chen.
"Don't talk too much. No matter how low Yaxue's status is, she is still a life. I will report this matter to the First Elder and let the higher-ups decide. You first come with me to the Sect Prison for investigation."
Chu Chen knew that with his strength, it was obvious that he couldn't compete with the Law Enforcement Elder. Moreover, if he fought with him, he would definitely suffer.
Now, the Law Enforcement Elder had changed his initial request to admit his guilt to accept the investigation. At present, he could only follow him to the "Sect Prison" and see what tricks Yao Jinghai was playing.
"I believe that the Sect will have its own justice. Let's go."
Chu Chen actually strode forward with a group of black-clothed law enforcement disciples following behind him. No one dared to make a move against him. It didn't seem like they were escorting him to the sect's prison. Instead, it seemed like Chu Chen was leading a group of followers forward.
The biggest reason why the group of Law Enforcement Disciples didn't dare to touch Chu Chen, other than his imposing manner, was because of the beautiful Elder Lingxin.
Although she focused on medicine, she had always been a vengeful person. She would never let go of anyone who offended her. She remembered once when an inner sect disciple pushed Qing Yue, Elder Lingxin did not even bother to ask who was the one who pushed her. Instead, she directly broke the other party's arm.
It was said that Chu Chen was now Elder Lingxin's favorite. It was good that he was willing to go to the Sect Prison. There was no need to drag him into it and cause Elder Lingxin's revenge. It would be a great loss.
Although Chu Chen walked calmly, the group of outer sect disciples who were watching sighed in their hearts. Chu Chen was doomed!
What kind of place was the Sect Prison? It had always been a place where the sect's serious criminals were locked up. For thousands of years, countless outer sect disciples, inner sect disciples, and even true disciples were locked up there and died. It was a terrifying place that made people's hair stand on end!
Although Chu Chen appeared to be extremely calm and carefree, people couldn't help but admire his temperament.
However, the place he was going to was the Sect Prison after all.
At the same time, in the "back mountain" secret realm of Biquan Xianzong.
In the middle of a beautiful green forest, a green-robed old man sat in a pavilion with an indifferent expression.
The mountain wind caused the forest to undulate and sway continuously. It was like an endless sea, and the old man was sitting in the middle of the sea.
The wind wanted to calm down, but it didn't stop. The old man's calmness caused the entire forest world to undulate and sway, but it was like a still picture scroll.
At this moment, the old man slowly opened his eyes, and the whole world came to life!
His complexion was much better than when he first met Chu Chen. There was a hint of rosy color on his originally haggard, old, and dispirited face.
On the small stone table in front of him, a chess game was already set up. The white chess pieces moved in a crisscross pattern on the chessboard. At first glance, it looked like a complicated "well" shape.
If Chu Chen were here and activated his spiritual sense, he would definitely be able to see that on this chess game, the white chess pieces faintly outlined a complicated pattern of meridians. This was a set of meridians that were located above the abdomen and below the heart. It was one of the main meridians of the human body, the "Ren and Du Meridians". The pattern was much more complicated than the "Six Rivers" chess game last time.
Obviously, the main meridians that the old man needed to adjust this time were the Ren and Du Meridians. As one of the most important meridians of the human body, its importance this time was far greater than before.
Therefore, the old man was also very cautious, quietly waiting for Chu Chen's arrival.
Even next to the chess game, a pot of good tea had already been brewed and was waiting for him. The fragrance of the tea rose in spirals, refreshing the heart and mind. With a slight breath, one would feel refreshed.
For the past few days, the old man had been waiting in the pavilion since sunrise. He waited until the sun set, but he didn't see Chu Chen come.
He couldn't help but have doubts in his heart. Could it be that the kid forgot to play chess with him every three days?
No, although he didn't spend much time with Chu Chen, the old man knew that the young man must be a man of his words. He had lived for so long and had a pair of sharp eyes that could see through people.
