Chapter 58
byAs soon as the voice sounded, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Yang Kai. Without saying a word, this person slapped Yang Kai on the shoulder. An extremely powerful force came, and Yang Kai snorted and was directly sent flying.
“Brother Yang！” Li Yuntian and the others were shocked and quickly stepped forward to support Yang Kai.
Yang Kai struggled to get up, coughed lightly, and looked at the person who came. He saw that there was a young man standing beside Wei Zhuang at the moment, staring at him with a gloomy and fierce expression. One hand was supporting the staggering Wei Zhuang, and he opened his mouth and asked： “Young Master Zhuang, are you okay？”
Wei Zhuang stared at Yang Kai with resentment and venom in his eyes. His figure was a little staggering, and he shook his head and said： “I’m fine.”
“It’s good that you’re fine. I’m late.” The young man couldn’t help but let out a sigh. Although his strength was higher than Wei Zhuang’s, he was after all just a subordinate of the Great Elder. In terms of status and position he was naturally inferior to Wei Zhuang.
“It’s not too late either！” Wei Zhuang sneered and asked in a strange tone, “Brother Cao, as a disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall, you are well-versed in the sect’s rules. Let me ask you, if someone dares to commit murder within the sect, what should be the punishment？”
Cao Zhengwen’s face turned cold and he said sonorously, “Depending on the severity of the circumstances, the offender will be either severely punished by having their hands and feet broken and being expelled from Lingxiao Pavilion, or in severe cases, they will be killed on the spot as a deterrent to others！”
Wei Zhuang chuckled and pointed at Yang Kai, saying, “Just now, this person tried to kill me. Brother Cao, you decide what to do！”
With someone backing him up, how could Wei Zhuang be as submissive as he was just now？
Cao Zhengwen shouted sharply, “Is this true?”
Wei Zhuang sneered repeatedly, “Didn’t Brother Cao see everything when you came？”
Cao Zhengwen nodded upon hearing this and said, “That’s right. Just now, this disciple was indeed holding a weapon against Young Master Zhuang’s chest. If I hadn’t stopped him in time Young Master Zhuang might have already been killed. This person is truly audacious, actually daring to do evil in broad daylight!
These two people sang in harmony, cooperating perfectly, and in an instant, they put a big hat of attempted murder on Yang Kai.
“Bullshit!” Just now, Senior Brother Yang and Wei Zhuang were just having a challenge and competition not as serious as you said. What do you mean by twisting the facts like this?”
Cao Zhengwen snorted coldly. “Is it really just as simple as a match?
Zhao Hu said, “If you don’t believe it, you can ask the senior brothers who are watching the excitement here. Our group of people can also testify. Moreover, this matter was initiated by Wei Zhuang first, and Senior Brother Yang was just involved in it.
“Someone testifies? Who testifies?” Wei Zhuang tilted his head and sneered, looking around.”
Many Lingxiao Pavilion disciples who were watching the excitement suddenly scattered like birds and beasts, and quickly fled the scene one by one. They had heard more or less about the elders’ dispute in the pavilion. Naturally, they didn’t have the courage to intervene in this scene. No matter which side they offended, their days in the Lingxiao Pavilion would not be easy in the future.”
When Li Yun saw this scene, he couldn’t help but be furious, but still stuck his neck and said, “We participated in this matter throughout the whole process and knew every detail clearly. We are the witnesses！”
Cao Zhengwen shook his head and said, “You gathered a crowd to fight, and you are already guilty. How can you testify？”
“Gathered a crowd to fight？” Zhao Hu jumped up and roared. “Clearly, Wei Zhuang asked his men to challenge us. Where did the gathering a crowd to fight come from？ Cao Zhengwen, don’t think that just because you are a disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall, you can do whatever you want. It’s not your turn to decide in the Lingxiao Pavilion.”
“Bold！ ”Cao Zhengwen rebuked loudly. “The Law Enforcement Hall represents the sect rules of Lingxiao Pavilion and has always been fair and just. How dare you question the authority of the Law Enforcement Hall? Your crime will be aggravated by one degree！”
“If you want to convict someone, there’s no need to worry about not having a pretext.” Yang Kai waved his hand to stop Li Yuntian and the others from justifying themselves, and looked at that Cao Zhengwen with a sneer. “Fair and just? Today I’ve truly seen what fairness and justice mean.”
“Hmph!” ” Cao Zhengwen let out a cold snort and shouted, “Arrest them all. Wait for theElder to discuss and then make a decision!”
“Sou sou！” A series of sounds of fluttering clothes came. Dozens of disciples from the Law Enforcement Hall emerged from all directions. The weakest of these people had the strength of at least the fifth level of the Kaiyuan Realm. How could Li Yuntian and the others be their opponents？ They were easily subdued and controlled in a few moves. Yang Kai didn’t resist because he knew that his resistance would be futile.
“Let’s wait and see！” Wei Zhuang, who was enjoying his moment of victory, walked up to Yang Kai and looked at him with a sneer.
“Take them away！” With a command from Cao Zhengwen, the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall escorted Li Yuntian and the others away.
Glancing at Su Mu who was still lying on the ground unconscious, Cao Zhengwen’s brows furrowed. He didn’t take Yang Kai and Li Yuntian and the others seriously, but Su Mu’s identity was special and he didn’t have the courage to move him. After pondering for a moment, he said, “Send Junior Brother Su to the Second Elder.”
“Yes！” Someone responded and stepped forward, picked up Su Mu from the ground, and left in a hurry.
“Young Master Zhuang, you’ve suffered！” Cao Zhengwen said softly.
Wei Zhuang narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth, saying, “That Yang Kai must not be let go！ He humiliated me today. I swear I won’t be a man if I don’t take revenge！ You should know what to do！”
Cao Zhengwen looked hesitant and said, “Young Master Zhuang, this matter has caused quite a stir today and will surely alarm theElder. If we take action at this time, I’m afraid it’s a bit inappropriate. It’s better to wait until theElder make a decision before taking action.”
“But I can’t swallow this humiliation!” Wei Zhuang said with a hideous expression.
“Don’t worry, I will teach him a lesson on behalf of Young Master Zhuang so that he knows the consequences of offending Young Master Zhuang.”
“Don’t kill him. I want to deal with him personally！”
“As you wish！”
In the Sen Prison of Lingxiao Pavilion, a group of people including Yang Kai were all imprisoned here. The Sen Prison was dark, damp, and very cold. There were rats and mosquitoes everywhere, and there was a stench that made people want to vomit coming from all directions. The environment was extremely bad.
The Sen Prison was the place where Lingxiao Pavilion imprisoned its disciples who made mistakes. Li Yuntian and the others had never thought that they would come here one day, and they all felt a bit uncomfortable in their hearts.
“Brother Yang, you’ve been implicated this time.” Li Yuntian was sitting beside Yang Kai and apologized softly.
Yang Kai smiled faintly. “This has nothing to do with you. I couldn’t help but jump out myself. I can’t bear to see our own people fighting among themselves like dogs.”
“Fighting among themselves like dogs…” Li Yuntian almost choked. Didn’t this also scold us？
“Putting it nicely is called internal strife. Isn’t it just fighting among themselves like dogs if you put it badly？” Yang Kai chuckled.
“That’s true. But don’t worry, Young Master Su will definitely not leave us alone. We just need to wait here for a few hours, and Young Master Su will be able to rescue us.” Li Yuntian thought relatively simply.
Yang Kai turned his body and assumed a more comfortable posture. “Tell me, why do the First Elder and the Second Elder have a rift？”
Li Yuntian sighed upon hearing this. “This has to do with our Sect Master.”
“Oh？ I’d like to hear the details.”
Li Yuntian said, “Last time, Young Master Su also told you about the Sect Master’s two disciples. Ever since the Sect Master captured and exiled his second disciple into the Dragon Trapping Ravine that time, our Sect Master has rarely appeared in front of people. He doesn’t even pay much attention to the affairs of the pavilion. Over the years, it has been the First Elder who has been acting as the Sect Master. Perhaps after a long time, he has had ambitions and now really regards himself as the Sect Master. The Second Elder can’t stand it and thinks that the First Elder often oversteps his bounds. Naturally, there has been friction over time.”
