Remember [Love Network] in one second, and provide you with wonderful reading. Silence.
The Formation Tower's plaza was deathly silent. All the cultivators were staring at Ye Tianze, thinking they had misheard.
Only when Ye Tianze raised his hand, indicating for Fan Yuqing to stand up did they react.
This really was a pardon. They hadn't misheard.
Fan Yuqing slowly stood up. Not to mention the spectators, even he himself found it even more inconceivable.
"That's not good!" Fan Yuqing wiped the sweat from his forehead.
He was naturally afraid of death, but he dared to take responsibility for what he had done. He definitely wouldn't wash his hands clean of what he had done.
As expected, Long Qingtian immediately seized on that sentence and said, "Your Highness, this really isn't right. Nothing can be accomplished without rules. If you pardon him like this, how will you convince the public? Who will care about the rules of the Divine Rune Palace in the future?"
"That's right. He can be spared from death, but he can't escape punishment. Your Highness, your punishment is truly unfair!"
A group of Elders also spoke up. They usually didn't like Fan Yuqing. If he really was allowed to live, with the support of the Divine Rune, how could they have a good life in the future?
Moreover, Ye Tianze's punishment was a bit too childish. If he wanted to pardon him, then so be it. After all, he was the Divine Rune in the prophecy. It was reasonable to give him a pardon after he was born.
But the problem was, what did he mean by following by his side and being at his beck and call was considered a contribution to the Divine Rune Palace?
Wasn't he doing as he pleased?
"Unfair!"
Ye Tianze sneered. "What kind of fairness do you want? Otherwise, I'll give you the Divine Rune. You bunch of useless fools. If you can become the Divine Rune, I'll accept whatever you do. You don't have the qualifications to become the Divine Rune, yet you still dare to criticize my actions. You really think you're some big shot when I let you stand and talk?"
When the cultivators heard this, their expressions changed. The Elders were even more furious. No matter what, they were still Elders!
He had actually been scolded like a grandson by Ye Tianze in front of so many outside powers. How could he endure this?!
However, before they could speak, Ye Tianze said, "If you have the ability, I will give each of you a chance to enter this Array Pattern Pagoda and pass the 58th floor. As long as you can do it, I will immediately give up my position as Saint and follow you everywhere. If you can't do it, then shut the hell up!"
The words that were about to come out of the Elders' mouths were all blocked. A few Elders were so angry that they wanted to rush in and give it a try.
However, after thinking about it, they suppressed the anger in their hearts. The reason for that was because none of them had any confidence in being able to reach the fifty-eighth step.
Long Qingtian finally understood why Ye Tianze dared to do whatever he wanted. It was because he was the one in charge. He was the one who had easily killed a Profound Heaven Rank 9 with that strike just now. Furthermore, he had used the formation of the Formation Rune Tower to kill his supreme existence servant.
Furthermore, although he was the Holy Son of the prophecy, he had truly broken through to the 58th floor.
With such strength, what rules did he need to follow? Not to mention, the decree had already been issued. He was the one in charge of the Divine Rune Palace. As long as it was not a matter of life and death, the Elders and Hall Masters would not have the face to interfere.
Now, all the Elders added together, including the Left and Right Guardians, were not as senior as Ye Tianze. Their strength might not be stronger than Ye Tianze. What qualifications did they have to talk about fairness with Ye Tianze?
"This is the Legalist's Overlord Technique!"
Fan Yuqing felt that it was very familiar.
Those who used strength to subdue others were Overlords. However, to be able to call it Overlord Technique, one had to be an Overlord himself.
It corresponded to the Confucian Way of the King. Using reason to subdue others was the Way of the King.
To be a king, one had to use both the King's Art and the Overlord Technique. The Legalists controlled the laws of the Primal Chaos Realm and did not need to use reason to subdue others.
They only needed to protect the Law of Primal Chaos because the Law of Primal Chaos could distinguish between good and evil. Therefore, they only needed to use strength to subdue others.
Ye Tianze had been reasonable before, but he had directly pardoned himself. That was the simplest manifestation of Overlord Technique.
I'm stronger than you. If you want to reason with me, you have to defeat me first.
However, even the Confucian Way of the King was a combination of Overlord Technique and Overlord Technique. After all, if you couldn't defeat others, who would listen to you? You would be lucky if you didn't get beaten up.
The Confucian Way of the King was only implemented because they had the right to speak. This right to speak had to be able to convince others.
Long Qingtian was right. With his status, apart from tolerating, this was almost the best choice for him.
However, he did not expect that after he had laid out the table and set up the Hongmen Banquet to have a fierce battle with Ye Tianze, he had forgotten that Ye Tianze could have flipped the table.
Now that Ye Tianze had flipped the table, no matter how much he had schemed, no matter how beautifully he had set up the Hongmen Banquet, it was all for naught.
His last sentence was directly telling them that they could bite him if they didn't like it!
Not to mention the elders, even Long Qingtian, who had shed all pretenses of cordiality, shut his mouth. At this moment, the outside forces had also witnessed the power of this Saint.
If I can't beat you in your rules, why should I play by your rules?
As outsiders, they naturally could not say anything. If this Saint directly accused them of interfering with the internal affairs of the Divine Rune Palace, they would probably be in serious trouble.
Seeing that all the cultivators were silent, Ye Tianze's gaze fell on Long Qingtian. "Long Qingtian, you were not strict enough in disciplining your servant. Although the servant has been killed, but …"
When he said the word "but", Ye Tianze intentionally paused for a moment. The hearts of all the Cultivators present began to pound.
Long Qingtian's expression changed drastically.
Ye Tianze continued, "You were not strict enough in disciplining your servant. I have no interest in pardoning you, so how should I punish you? Elder Fan, you tell me!"
Long Qingtian's face was bruised. If Ye Tianze personally punished him, he would admit defeat. But who was Fan Yuqing?
She was one level lower than his Right Guardian. Moreover, she was the person he wanted to kill just now.
Now that the servant had not been killed, but he was the one who punished him. Wasn't this riding on his head in front of everyone?
However, he knew that Ye Tianze would not reason with him once he flipped the table.
Unless he also wanted to flip the table, but flipping the table would be disobeying the Saint. Disobeying the Saint was no different from betraying the Divine Rune Palace.
This was under the Formation Tower. The scene of Ye Tianze imprisoning his servant was still vivid in his mind. If he really did that, Ye Tianze could kill him in seconds.
He could only endure. He thought to himself that if he had known this would happen, he would have endured from the beginning. He would not have stood out and become the Saint's target.
In these tens of thousands of years of cultivation, he had not schemed against a young brat. He had lived in vain.
Fan Yuqing did not dare to say "this is somewhat inappropriate" nonsense. Although she had her principles, she was willing to abandon them once to deal with a cultivator like the Right Guardian.
However, she did not abuse her authority for personal gain. Instead, she listed out Long Qingtian's crimes according to the rules of the Punishment Hall.
In front of all the major factions and even the cultivators of the Divine Rune Palace, Ye Tianze let Fan Yuqing enforce the law. She used a whip to whip Long Qingtian a thousand times, until his skin and flesh were lacerated.
However, everyone knew that every time the whip landed, Long Qingtian would bear a grudge. But at this moment, he had learned to endure.
The moment Ye Tianze fell into the well would be the moment he gave up his patience and took revenge. Mobile users, please browse and read. A better reading experience comes from Love Network.
