The space was silent. Everyone tacitly maintained their silence.
Heartless Tie's face darkened. He summoned a few law enforcement disciples and ordered them to collect clues. At the same time, he lowered his head and fell into deep thought.
Not long after, a few law enforcement disciples returned and whispered a few words into Heartless Iron's ear. Heartless Iron's face turned even gloomier.
"I've already made my decision!"
Heartless Tie took a deep breath and said to the crowd in a clear voice, "According to the investigation of the Disciplinary Hall, Li Chen and Li Chen did indeed chase after Chu Xingyun in the Misty Forest and violated the rules of the Martial House. Here, as the Disciplinary Hall Master, I declare that Li Chen's cultivation will be abolished and he will be expelled from the Soaring Heaven Martial House."
"Elder Tie, I've been wronged!" Li Chen was so scared that his limbs went soft, and he collapsed to the ground, wailing loudly.
He didn't care about being expelled from the Soaring Heaven Martial House. With his talent, even if the Soaring Heaven Martial House didn't accept him, other Martial Houses would still open their doors for him.
But if his cultivation was crippled, then he would become a complete waste, even worse than an ordinary person. Would the other Martial Houses accept such a waste?
"Enforce the law!" Heartless Iron ignored Li Chen's defense. He waved his hand, and a law enforcement disciple appeared in front of Li Chen. The disciple's palm was like lightning, and it landed three inches below Li Chen's abdomen.
Bang!
Li Chen's body was sent flying. After flying for more than ten meters, he finally came to a stop. The corner of his mouth was stained with blood. His entire body was limp and there was not a trace of expression on his face.
More importantly, there were no more Spiritual Energy fluctuations coming from his body. His Spiritual Sea was shattered, and his cultivation was lost. He had become a complete cripple.
"Chu Xingyun." Heartless Tie shifted his gaze away and cleared his throat. His voice was much gentler as he said, "Although your actions today are to avenge yourself, it has a bad influence and has disrupted the Wind Cloud Arena. I've decided to punish you with seven days of confinement as a warning."
"As for whether or not the Dreamy Cloud Martial House was involved in the Misty Forest incident, our Law Enforcement Hall will investigate it thoroughly. We will definitely not cover it up."
Hearing Heartless Tie's words, Ye Huan and Yang Feng immediately felt relieved, and a smile appeared in their eyes.
Although Heartless Tie had punished Chu Xingyun in the end, this punishment wasn't really necessary.
One had to know that the two people Chu Xingyun had killed, one was a core disciple, and the other was an Elder of the Martial House. Both of them were the mainstays of the Soaring Heaven Martial House. Normally, the death of either one of them would cause the Disciplinary Hall to not let the matter rest.
Now that both of them were dead, Heartless Iron had only punished Chu Xingyun with seven days of confinement. Anyone could tell that he was trying to protect him. It could be said that Li Yi and Xiao Ting had died for nothing.
As for the Dreamy Cloud Martial House, it involved too many people, so Heartless Tie couldn't make a decision. He could only give them a perfunctory answer. However, everyone knew that this matter had already been blown out of proportion, and the Dreamy Cloud Martial House couldn't escape the blame.
"Many thanks for Elder Tie's wise decision." Chu Xingyun cupped his fists and smiled. He was very satisfied with this result.
"Junior Brother Chu, come with me." The two Disciplinary Hall disciples came in front of Chu Xingyun and spoke politely. This surprised many disciples. Was this still the Disciplinary Hall? How could they be so polite?
But soon, the crowd figured it out.
After this matter, Chu Xingyun's name would be known by everyone. The Soaring Heaven Martial House's upper echelons would definitely provide him with a large amount of resources to nurture him.
In front of such a proud son of heaven, no matter how arrogant the Disciplinary Hall disciples were, they wouldn't dare to be rude. They were afraid that if they angered Chu Xingyun, they would end up like Li Yi and Xiao Ting.
This kid even dared to kill an Earth Spirit Master, let alone a mere Disciplinary Hall disciple.
Chu Xingyun nodded. Before he took a step forward, he suddenly looked in the direction of the Dreamy Cloud Martial House. His eyes were deep and cold as he stared at Gu Qingsong, Shui Qianyue, Luo Sheng, and the others.
"Today's matter is only the beginning. The Dreamy Cloud Martial House's scheme against me, in the near future, I will return it a hundredfold. I will make you all pay a painful price." Chu Xingyun pointed his halberd and a cold aura gushed out from his body.
This cold aura was mixed with a strong wind, blowing on Gu Qingsong and the others, causing them to shiver uncontrollably.
If they had heard these words before today, perhaps they wouldn't have taken it to heart. They would have thought that Chu Xingyun was delirious, daring to say such arrogant words to the Dreamy Cloud Martial House.
After today, they were all silent. They didn't dare to speak, nor did they know what to say. They only wanted to leave this place as soon as possible and not see those sharp black eyes again.
Chu Xingyun left the Martial Arts Plaza. The Wind and Cloud Challenge Tournament continued, but the crowd was no longer in the mood to watch. Their minds were constantly replaying the scene from before.
Looking around and seeing that no one was paying attention to them, Gu Qingsong didn't say a word and directly left with the new disciples of the Dreamy Cloud Martial House. They were dejected, like a rat crossing the street.
Seeing this, Tie Wuxin coldly snorted and immediately sent a few law enforcement disciples to follow them and investigate.
What happened at the Lingxiao Martial House today would soon spread throughout the five Martial Houses. Perhaps even the entire Imperial City would be alarmed.
As the Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall, Tie Wuxin would definitely take measures to investigate this matter clearly and quell this storm.
"Senior Brother, let's follow them." Ye Huan whispered and was about to pull Yang Feng to quickly follow Chu Xingyun.
Yang Feng first nodded, but just as he took a step forward, he retracted his foot and said to Ye Huan, "What happened today is no small matter. Let's go to the palace first and tell Master the whole thing. Let's see how he will react."
"Alright." Ye Huan listened and felt that it was reasonable.
It had been more than half a month since Yang Yan entered the Imperial Palace. There had been no news of him. Firstly, they could visit him. Secondly, they could ask his attitude and know how to deal with this matter.
In any case, Chu Xingyun was protected by Tie Wuxin. In the entire Lingxiao Martial House, there were not many people who could hurt him.
After the two made up their minds, they hurriedly left the Lingxiao Martial House and rushed towards the Imperial Palace. Many experts also scattered and left one after another.
"Since they have all left, let's go too." Xue Qingwu stood in the same place. Suddenly, a strong wind swept past and Xue Dangkong in a scarlet robe appeared in front of her. He slowly walked forward.
"Grandfather, where are we going?" Xue Qingwu frowned and asked doubtfully.
"Of course we are going to find that brat. Haven't you been thinking about him in your heart?" Xue Dangkong pointed in the direction Chu Xingyun left and said in a somewhat annoyed tone.
Xue Qingwu blushed and hurriedly said, "When did I think about him? You misunderstood!"
"I have lived for more than half of my life. Do you think you can hide your thoughts from me?" Xue Dangkong rolled his eyes but did not stop. Instead, he sped up and rushed forward.
