Knowing that he was in the wrong and unable to find Nüba as a witness, Lin Jichen could only swallow this loss alone. In order not to embarrass his master, he had to take the initiative to say, "Master, I know I was wrong. Please punish me." Leng Feiyan also knew that no matter what, he could not cover up in public. As the head of the sect, he must be clear about rewards and punishments, especially in front of the entire sect. She said with a straight face, "Since you admit it, don't blame me for punishing you."

As she spoke, she stood up and announced the verdict on Lin Jichen in public: "Since this matter is serious, you should be expelled from the sect, but considering that you are a first-time offender and you took the initiative to admit your mistakes, I will punish you to resign from the position of elder of the Good Merit Hall, and Nangong Yue will temporarily serve as the elder, and fine you two years of salary, and imprison you in Jingsi Cliff for half a year to reflect on your mistakes, as a warning to others, do you have any objections?"

Lin Jichen's expression was bitter, damn, this punishment is too harsh...

Not only was he dismissed not long after he became an elder, but his salary didn't matter.

The most important thing is that he will be imprisoned for half a year.

This made Lin Jichen complain in his heart, if he was imprisoned for half a year, wouldn't he go crazy?

But this was already a mercy from the master. If it was any other disciple, it would be good enough if he was not imprisoned for two years, or even expelled from the sect.

Helplessly, Lin Jichen could only accept his fate: "Disciple obeys your order."

Leng Feiyan nodded and said to the Yuwen clan: "As for the matter of the bad disciple injuring your Yuwen guards, my Sword Sect will give full compensation. Are you satisfied with this?"

Although Prime Minister Yuwen felt that this punishment was a bit low, after all, he was Leng Feiyan's disciple, so he couldn't do too much.

It was good enough to make Lin Jichen lose his position and be imprisoned for half a year, and he was willing to compensate for the loss, so what else could he say.

The Prime Minister immediately bowed and said with a smile: "Master Leng is clear about rewards and punishments. I admire him. We are willing to accept it and are very satisfied. In this case, we will take our leave first."

Leng Feiyan changed the subject and said: "Wait."

The Prime Minister turned around and asked: "Master Leng, is there anything else?"

Leng Feiyan said indifferently: "My disciple's matter has been resolved, so how do you deal with your prince's raising ghost pets and corrupt behavior?"

The Prime Minister was stunned and said awkwardly: "This... Our Emperor will punish him well..."

Leng Feiyan sneered: "How to punish? Tell us a rule, and let all the cultivators in the world see how Emperor Yuwen is clear about rewards and punishments, and this matter must be announced to the world to convince people."

The Prime Minister was shocked and his face was full of embarrassment. If Yuwen Tuo was dealt with publicly, wouldn't it mean that Yuwen Tuo's scandal was made public? Wouldn't everyone in the world laugh at the Yuwen clan?

"This... this... is not appropriate..." the prime minister hesitated.

Leng Feiyan did not give him a chance to object, and said directly: "My disciple was wrong first, and our Jianzong admits it, but your prince has a low character and raises ghost pets. He has disgraced your Yuwen family and all the righteous cultivators in the world. It is equally unforgivable."

"Go back and tell your majesty that within two days, I want to see him post a notice to the world and announce the results. Otherwise, your majesty is partial to him and does not know how to reward and punish. At that time, I don't mind going to the Yuwen Imperial City in person to have a good 'talk' with your majesty about this matter."

The prime minister's legs went weak after hearing this, and he could only bite the bullet and agree: "Okay, okay, I will tell your majesty the truth when I go back. I believe that within two days, there will be a result, definitely."

The prime minister suddenly began to regret it at this time. He thought that standing on the banner of morality, he could vent the anger of the royal family and teach Lin Jichen a lesson to avenge that day.

I didn't expect that they would be made public now. Isn't this equivalent to public execution...

Once this embarrassing thing is made public, his Yuwen clan will become a laughing stock of the world.

But if he doesn't do it, Leng Feiyan will be furious...

Prime Minister Yuwen is in tears at this time. If he had known this, he would not have come. How can he explain to His Majesty when he returns?

Although the other princes have seen the ending, they are also shrinking their necks and dare not refute a word.

"Very good, send the guests away." Leng Feiyan saw that he agreed and drove them away directly.

The Yuwen clan came in a rage and left in disgrace.

After they left, the disciples of the Sword Sect did not disperse.

Because the trial of Lin Jichen is only secondary. The most important thing today is the trial of another disciple, which is the top priority.

"Brother Lin, let's go, follow me to Jingsi Cliff." Zhang Chaohai came over to take Lin Jichen away.

Lin Jichen, however, stood still and said, "Brother, can I go later? I want to see my senior brother."

Zhang Chaohai hesitated for a moment, and seeing that Leng Feiyan did not urge him, he had no choice but toNodding in agreement.

After all, today will be the final trial of Chu Tianhan, and it may also be the last time they see Chu Tianhan.

"Bring up the disciple Chu Tianhan!"

As soon as Nangong Wu opened his mouth, Chu Tianhan, who was in a mess, was tied up with his hands and pushed to the center of the square.

At this time, Chu Tianhan had long lost his former handsome, refreshing, proud and lonely appearance. On the contrary, he now had a scraggly beard, messy hair, deep eye bags, and a dejected look. When he walked up, his eyes were also scattered, as if he had lost his soul.

One side of Chu Tianhan's face was still swollen, with a clear slap mark on it, and the corner of his mouth was also broken, and the remaining blood scab was clearly visible.

This palm was given by Elder Tianjian. Although it was only a flesh wound, it was thousands of times more painful for Chu Tianhan than a heart-wrenching injury.

Chu Tianhan looked even more lonely and miserable than when Lin Jichen saw him in the Forbidden Soul Valley.

Chu Tianhan was only seriously injured in the Forbidden Soul Valley, but his pride and tenacity still existed, and there was still faith in his eyes.

But now, although he was not injured, Lin Jichen felt that he was a hundred times more serious than before, with empty eyes, like a walking corpse.

Chu Tianhan, who was brought up, knelt down automatically.

The moment he saw him, the face of the Tianjian elder instantly sank, and the invisible pressure made everyone present silent.

Chu Tianhan raised his head and looked at the Tianjian elder expectantly, but the other party turned a blind eye and even had disgust in his eyes.

Chu Tianhan's eyes suddenly turned red, and he lowered his head in shame, not daring to look up again.

Elder Tianjian stood up and said in a loud voice: "My fellow disciples, I, Yuan Tianjian, did not know how to judge people and accepted a demon as my disciple, which made the entire Sword Sect a laughing stock among the cultivators of the world. I feel guilty about this and have decided to resign from the position of elder, reflect on myself, and will not accept any more disciples in the future."

Elder Tianjian's words made all the disciples stand in awe, except Chu Tianhan, who had been keeping his head down, as if struck by lightning and trembled all over.
