After the truth came out, they begged me not to die.

"Disciple dare not!"

How could Ye Xiyu dare to disobey Chen Zun's order? However, she raised her head, her eyes firm and fearless.

"But Hecang has already been punished. How can he bear it if he continues to be beaten? Besides, he already knows his mistake and he is not hungover for no reason. Please forgive him, Master, since he is devoted to Tianxu Palace."

Ye Xiyu spoke eloquently and attracted the support of the monks from Tianxu Palace.

"Yes, God Emperor, don't fight anymore, just spare He Cang for once."

"The purpose of punishment is not to show majesty, but to punish mistakes. I hope the God Emperor will think twice."

Everyone started to persuade him.

Chen Zun slowly sat down, his expression improved a little, he snorted, and finally let go.

"Well, seeing as he is a first-time offender and has been punished, the rest of the punishment caning will be waived, but..."

He glanced at the people in the audience from the corner of his eye, making everyone feel cold.

"If anyone dares to disobey orders and the laws of Tianxu Palace, He Cang is an example."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked and no one thought he was joking.

Chen Zun waved his hand impatiently and said: "The death penalty has been averted, but the living crime cannot be escaped. Come on, put Hecang in a solitary room for a month, let him reflect on his mistakes, so as not to do it again next time."

The law enforcement team followed the order, and this time no one dared to come out to persuade.

Chen Zun looked at the people in Tianxu Palace again and narrowed his eyes.

"The reason why I called you here today is actually because of one thing. This thing is not only related to the safety of Tianxu Palace, but may also put us into an irreversible situation."

Although he spoke slowly, his tone was extremely unkind.

This made everyone feel uneasy for a moment.

Someone was brave and asked in a low voice: "Dare you ask what the God Emperor said?"

Chen Zun chuckled lightly, his eyes swept over the faces of everyone present, and finally settled on a few people, and said leisurely: "Our Tianxu Palace has suffered such a disaster. Some people are disloyal in their hearts and want to seek refuge with the Central Plains Immortal Sect. Selling Tianxu Palace to find a way out in the future, tell me, how should we deal with such a thing?"

Chen Zun's words were like earth-shattering shock, and immediately detonated everyone.

"What? There is such a person, who is it?"

"Tianxu Palace has not yet fallen, and someone wants to rebel. It's so shameful. Let me know that I can't spare him!"

"Those who surrender to the enemy and turn traitors deserve death!"

Everyone was talking about it, and at the same time glanced at the others.

Ye Xiyu's face changed slightly, her heart was lifted, and she lowered her head guiltily, but her hands couldn't stop trembling slightly.

Has it been discovered?

The faces of the few people Chen Zun was staring at off the court were pale and had long lost their color. They were the same people who Chen Zun had heard were planning to rebel.

Chen Zun took everything in his eyes and said: "It is indeed difficult in Tianxu Palace right now. I am grateful to you all for going through so many difficulties with me. If you have your own way of making a living or want to leave, I will never force you to stay.

However, if you want to use the lives of other brothers in Tianxu Palace to surrender, I will never agree. Such thieves will not be tolerated in heaven and earth! "

When he said this, he became murderous, and the murderous aura had spread to the entire hall.

No one dared to answer the call.

Chen Zun looked at one person, raised the corners of his mouth, and revealed a sinister smile.

"Elder He Feng, are what you said about me correct?"

He Feng had a guilty conscience. Chen Zun had not set his sights on him before and was still lucky. Who knew that the question would come to his head this time? This made him tremble in his heart, and he forced a trembling smile: " It’s absolutely true what the…God Emperor…the God Emperor said.”

Chen Zun smiled slightly, stared at He Feng closely, and said something that made his hair stand on end.

"Okay, I'm relieved now. Elder He, you have betrayed Tianxu Palace and betrayed your brothers. Is there no problem in executing you?"

Wow!

Everyone's eyes turned to He Feng, and among the complex looks of surprise, astonishment, disbelief, and disappointment, he became the only focus.

The smile on He Feng's face had solidified, and he knelt down and shouted that he was wronged.

"God Emperor, I am wronged. Ever since I entered Tianxu Palace, I, He Feng, have been conscientiously fulfilling my duties and have not betrayed Tianxu Palace. I hope God Emperor will learn from it."

He Feng was begging for mercy, but everyone else didn't believe it and started begging for mercy.

"God Emperor, Elder He Feng is loyal to Tianxu Palace and conscientious in his work. It is impossible for him to betray Tianxu Palace. It must be a misunderstanding."

"Yes, Elder He is definitely not a traitor. Someone must have maliciously slandered him. I hope the God Emperor will not trust others easily."

Everyone felt that He Feng's betrayal was impossible. First of all, He Feng was an old man who joined Tianxu Palace very early. Regardless of his prestige or other things, everyone was convinced. If he was said to be a traitor to Tianxu Palace, everyone would be convinced. Wouldn't believe it.

"Misunderstanding? If I don't have evidence, how dare I say nonsense."

Chen Zun sneered, looked at He Feng, and said coldly: "Let me ask you, your cultivation has been stuck at a bottleneck for many years, your life span is running out, and you have long been unable to break through. Without the help of outsiders, how can you do it? Can you break through?"

This question made He Feng feel cold all over. It turned out that Chen Zun had always remembered his situation, but now that he was asked about it, he became so nervous that he became incoherent.

Someone stood up and said: "God Emperor, my subordinates can prove that Elder He obtained a spiritual object while patrolling the Mingyuan Mountain, and then he broke through the realm. Many people have heard Elder He talk about this matter, and it should be true. .”

Many people echoed.

Chen Zun's face turned even colder, and he looked at He Feng with feigned surprise, and asked: "Oh? I know all the spiritual creatures in the world that can achieve realm breakthroughs. I dare to ask Elder He which one he got. Let me tell you."

A large amount of sweat broke out on He Feng's forehead. His face was full of panic and he tried his best to hide it.

"This...I don't even recognize that spiritual creature. I just succeeded with the mentality of giving it a try."

Chen Zun followed closely: "Don't you recognize it? I happen to know it. Tell me the location and shape of the spiritual object, and I will send someone to check it out."

He Feng was really sweating.

Because what Ling Tian gave him was a pill, not a spiritual object, how could he tell.

Now he greatly regretted the lies he had told to cover up his breakthrough. If he had known that Chen Zun would notice him, he might as well have said that he had obtained the unknown elixir from an uninhabited cave.

He could only pretend to be stupid and change the subject.

"The spiritual creature has a strange shape, and I can't remember its specific characteristics... In short, I am loyal to Tianxu Palace and have no second thoughts. Many Taoist friends present can testify!"

Chen Zun raised his eyes and glanced at everyone. Wherever his eyes went, everyone lowered their heads.

At this time, everyone knew that He Feng's words were unclear, and they didn't say anything for a long time. They were not stupid, how could they dare to speak for He Feng at this time.
