Ji Wuyou stood in the center of the hall, his eyes flashing with endless anger.
This is really too much.
This is the first time that such a disgraceful thing has happened in Qingyun Sect since its establishment tens of thousands of years ago.
Hearing that a disciple was stripped naked and hung on a tree, he immediately rushed to the Punishment Hall.
Four terrified disciples knelt in front of him.
They were the outer disciples who were monitoring Qin Kong.
Today, they were discovered early in the morning and sent to the Punishment Hall.
"Do you know who did it?"
Ji Wuyou's voice was low and majestic, echoing in the hall, causing the four terrified disciples to tremble involuntarily.
One of the disciples said tremblingly:
"Replying to the elder, we... We don't know who that person is, but judging from his methods, he is definitely not an ordinary person."
Another disciple quickly added:
"That person is very powerful. We had no power to fight back and were subdued by him. And... And he also looted all our belongings."
The other two did not dare to say a word.
Ji Wuyou listened to their words and his face became more gloomy.
This is not looting you, this is humiliating Qingyun Sect.
He secretly thought in his heart, who in this Qingyun Sect has such courage to do such a thing to insult the sect.
He decided to investigate this matter thoroughly, find out this daring person, and restore the reputation of Qingyun Sect.
"Master He Xiong, you go and investigate it yourself.
This matter concerns the reputation of the sect.
The offender must be caught."
The head of the Punishment Hall immediately took the order and went to investigate the scene to track down the real culprit.
At this moment, Ye Lingtian also came to the Punishment Hall.
"Hall Master He, wait a minute, this matter needs to be discussed in the long run."
Ji Wuyou frowned slightly and looked at Ye Lingtian.
"Master Ye Feng, what do you mean by this?
This matter concerns the reputation of our Qingyun Sect and must be resolved as soon as possible."
Ye Lingtian bowed slightly and said solemnly:
"Grand Elder, this matter is indeed very serious, but rash actions may alert the enemy.
That person is so bold, he must have something to rely on.
I suspect that some people are starting to get restless again.
They are going to monitor Qin Kong, and I suspect that someone is secretly helping Qin Kong."
Ji Wuyou was silent for a moment, thinking that what Ye Lingtian said was very likely.
The internal struggle of Qingyun Sect has never stopped.
"Then how do you think this matter should be handled?"
Ye Lingtian thought for a moment and responded:
"First, secretly monitor Qin Kong and see who has contact with him.
Understand the strength and background of these people, and then formulate countermeasures to ensure that there is no risk of error."
Ji Wuyou nodded slightly.
"Well, then increase the monitoring of Qin Kong and investigate secretly.
But this matter cannot be delayed for too long. This person must be found as soon as possible and an explanation must be given to the sect.
There must be a result before the sect exchange meeting."
Ye Lingtian responded:
"Don't worry, elder. I will arrange for people to investigate secretly and report immediately as soon as there is any news."
At this time, the four outer disciples were still kneeling on the ground, trembling with fear.
They prayed in their hearts, hoping to catch that hateful guy as soon as possible and vent their anger.
However, He Xiong's voice made them feel like they were falling into an ice cave.
"Take them away and lock them up in the dungeon.
No one can plead for mercy until the matter is investigated.
Also, control the disciples who brought them here.
Find a quiet place for them to practice and block the news."
Ji Wuyou nodded slightly, expressing satisfaction with He Xiong's arrangement.
"Master He, where will you start investigating this matter?"
"All things cannot be avoided without Qin Kong, so start investigating him."
Ji Wuyou nodded and added:
"You need to grasp the degree, and you must not push that little bastard too hard, lest he jumps off the wall in desperation."
He Xiong was slightly startled, and then understood Ji Wuyou's concerns.
After all, he had also experienced Qin Kong's bastard behavior.
If he was really forced into a desperate situation, he might do something crazy.
"Don't worry, Great Elder, I will tell my men to be careful."
He Xiong said solemnly.
Ji Wuyou nodded slightly, with anger still flashing in his eyes, and left the Punishment Hall.
·······
At this time, Qin Kong and Chu Ziyao were still leisurely moving towards Luopu Peak.
Suddenly, He Xiong appeared in front of Qin Kong with several disciples from the Punishment Hall, blocking their way.
Qin Kong habitually touched his nose and pinched the Peak Master token tied to his hand.
"Master He, you are a Nascent Soul cultivator. Your sudden appearance will scare me. If I accidentally slip, something bad will happen?"
He Xiong looked at the Peak Master token in Qin Kong's hand, his eyes slightly condensed.
He knew very well that the Peak Master token in Qin Kong's hand represented a certain power and status,But he had completely ignored the symbolic meaning of the token, just because it was in Qin Kong's hands.
He was just worried about the rumor that the token contained a peak attack of the Spiritual Transformation Realm, which was true.
"Qin Kong, don't use the token to pressure me.
I came here today just to investigate the matter of the four outer disciples.
If you have nothing to do with this matter, you can cooperate calmly, and I won't make things difficult for you."
He Xiong's tone was serious, just like interrogating a prisoner.
Qin Kong's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing an unruly smile:
"Master He, what outer disciple's matter alarmed a big shot like you.
Tell me quickly, Qingyun Sect, did something interesting happen?"
He Xiong frowned:
"Qin Kong, don't act crazy here.
Although there is no conclusive evidence at present, the matter of the four outer disciples is related to you.
You can go with me to the Punishment Hall and cooperate with the investigation."
Qin Kong's heart trembled, but his face remained calm, and he said slowly:
"What are you talking about?
I don't even know what happened, how can I cooperate with your investigation?"
He Xiong looked at Qin Kong's confused face, and he suspected that he was playing dumb.
"Qin Kong, four outer disciples were stripped naked and hung on a tree. They went to monitor you yesterday. You must have known about this."
Qin Kong looked angry, pretending to be surprised, and said gloomily:
"So someone has been sending people to monitor me?
Being stripped naked and hung on a tree, this punishment is too light.
Several outer disciples dared to monitor the peak master.
Master He, shouldn't you bring them to me,
chop off their heads, and give me an explanation?"
He Xiong's face was livid. He didn't expect Qin Kong to block his mouth so quickly.
"Qin Kong, I'm here to take you to the punishment hall, interrogate those outer disciples in front of you, and give you an explanation."
Qin Kong raised his eyebrows and waved his hand when he heard this.
"Master He, do we need to interrogate him? What would you do if an outer disciple was watching you?"
He Xiong answered without hesitation:
"Of course I would kill him."
Suddenly, Qin Kong took on the posture of a peak master.
"Then what are you waiting for?
The peak master of your own sect is being watched.
Why do you come to me, the peak master, if you don't punish the person who is watching?
Is your Punishment Hall just a decoration?"
He Xiong was choked by Qin Kong's words and was annoyed in his heart. Qin Kong was as difficult as ever.
But as the master of the Punishment Hall, he naturally couldn't be easily stumped by Qin Kong's words.
"Master Qin, this matter is of great importance.
Even if those outer disciples were wrong to monitor you, they are now being humiliated.
It concerns the reputation of the sect and must be thoroughly investigated.
If you really have nothing to do with this matter, follow me to the Punishment Hall and cooperate with the investigation."
He Xiong's tone became tough.
Qin Kong sneered:
"Master He, you are really capable. A few outer disciples were humiliated, and you arrested me, the peak master.
You have disgraced Qingyun Sect. What, you still want to force me?"
