I became a villain master, but I conquered the heroine

"Besides, there were only two of them at the scene. As for the truth, who attacked whom first, and who was possessed by the devil first, no one can tell for sure."

"If she says that my apprentice attacked her first, does she have any evidence? Does she want to convict my apprentice with such empty words?

"But there is irrefutable evidence that she killed my apprentice. Now I only know that my beloved apprentice died tragically, with no trace of his body left, while the person who killed him is still alive and well. How can I not feel chilled by this?

"As his master, if I can't even get this little justice for him, how can I face him in the afterlife?" Gu Huailiang was so angry that he was shaking all over and pressed forward.

Yan Youdao sighed, "Elder Gu, please accept my condolences. I will definitely handle this matter impartially."

Yuan Chu's eyes sank slightly. Gu Huailiang refused to let go, and Lu Ling was really dead. It seemed that this matter would be difficult to resolve peacefully.

As luck would have it, Lu Ling died easily. His death put an end to all problems, but he left behind so many troubles.

Yuanchu cursed in his heart: You can't even rest in peace after death, and you've caused so many troubles. Your aunt owed you this in her previous life!

The common man is not guilty, but the jade is guilty.

Yan Youdao was caught in the middle and it was very difficult for him.

Gu Huailiang said this to the point, didn't he just want the person who killed his apprentice to pay the price?

It is a fact that Gu Huailiang's apprentice Lu Ling died, and there is indeed no evidence now to show that Lu Ling's death had nothing to do with her.

And the fact that Gu Xi cut off one of his arms happened in public was beyond doubt.

The problem now is that Gu Huailiang is forcing Gu Xi to be punished, which is the most troublesome thing.

On the one hand, Yan Youdao wants to consolidate the power of Yuyang Peak, and on the other hand, he has to handle the matter impartially, so perhaps he can only sacrifice the interests of Qingqi Peak.

Yan Youdao didn't want the sect to fall apart, he wanted to consider the overall situation.

Perhaps he had no choice but to punish Gu Xi in order to calm Gu Huailiang's anger and the resentment of all the disciples of Yuyang Peak.

Disciples from other peaks and academies can also take warning from this.

Killing a fellow disciple is a serious crime. In the future, disciples in the sect will have to think twice before taking action.

But the truth is that Lu Ling himself had a despicable mind, and ultimately harmed others and himself, ending up dying miserably in the wilderness.

He can't stand seeing others get opportunities, so he wants to take them. When he sees that the other party is unwilling, he forces his move, like a robber, to take them by force.

Normally, he had a very bad reputation in the sect. He was notorious for doing all kinds of evil things, and relied on his cultivation and power to bully countless innocent children.

Normally, people who are bullied dare not speak out and dare not offend him.

Such a person with such a bad record is really dead, and there are still people who want to seek so-called justice for him.

The truth is clear. Lu Ling died at the hands of the monster because of his own greed, and it had nothing to do with Gu Xi.

But there is no eternal truth to be pursued in this world, only the weighing of pros and cons.

The balance may tip more towards whichever side has greater interests.

This law is deeply rooted and difficult to change.

Like a thousand-year-old solid ice, it is difficult for people to break it.

Yan Youdao knew the twists and turns of this matter better than anyone else, but he had to act in the interests of the sect.

Yan Youdao considered it in his mind. He knew clearly that in the current situation, it would be difficult to stop the gossips if he did not punish Gu Xi.

"This happened within the sect, and no one wants to see the situation we are in today. Lu Ling's heart is indeed unstable, and he was controlled by the evil spirit, which led to a disaster."

"Gu Xi argued with him to protect herself, but she is indeed responsible for Lu Ling's death. Although she is guilty, her crime does not deserve the death penalty."

"Since ancient times, those who commit crimes should be punished. This has never changed. I will not deny it."

After that, he didn't wait for Gu Huailiang to speak, and said in a calm voice: "Then punish Gu Xi to be confined to the cliff for three years."

The Cliff of Repentance is nothing more than a place for confinement. In Gu Huailiang's eyes, it does not meet his requirements for punishment at all.

His beloved disciple died tragically in the wilderness, with no remains left. Did he think that he could just let it go with a mere confinement? I'm afraid it wouldn't be that easy!

"Master, isn't the punishment of being sent to the Cliff of Repentance too light?" Gu Huailiang immediately retorted in a stern voice.

Yan Youdao pondered for a moment and said, "Then what should we do according to what Elder Gu said?"

"Give him nine punishments of heavenly thunder and send him to the cliff of regret, and only then will the hatred of all the disciples of Yuyang Peak be relieved."

The punishment of heavenly thunder has always been the most severe form of punishment in Kunlun Sect. This punishment requires going to the heavenly punishment platform.

Then he cast a magic circle to draw the power of thunder and fire from heaven and earth to deal with those who were being tortured on the Tianxingtai.

The nine heavenly punishments that Gu Huailiang mentioned represent the highest standards. The Heavenly Punishment Tower has nine floors in total, and each floor of the tower represents a restriction and also a heavenly punishment.

For a flesh and blood body, how many people can withstand these nine heavenly punishments if they are imposed at the same time?

If he couldn't bear it, he would probably end up dead.

The heavenly punishment of Tianxingtai is different from one's own thunder tribulation. One's own thunder tribulation is to temper the body in order to test the cultivator's personal cultivation and physical ability level.

The punishment of heavenly thunder is a cruel punishment that takes people's lives.

Just one strike is enough to shatter a person's soul. Even if he is in the Jindan stage, he will lose half his life if he doesn't die.

The Heavenly Thunder Punishment is a form of punishment that Kunlun Sect does not use lightly. Once it is used, the person being punished must have violated the sect's great taboos and committed a heinous crime.

The last disciple who was subjected to the punishment of heavenly thunder had his meridians broken and was left with only one breath left. It would be more accurate to say that he became a disabled person.

The Cliff of Repentance is where the Kunlun Sect has always punished disciples who broke the precepts. It is the coldest place in the world, bitterly cold and lonely.

There were raging snow and wind, and it was a desolate place. Not a single living creature could be seen all year round, which made it even more unbearable.

Yuanchu's face suddenly turned dark, and she felt heavy in her heart. Did this old man want to destroy Gu Xi?

You old bastard, you are so shameless, you want to kill me right from the start, and get rid of me as soon as possible, right?

Yuanchu's eyes darkened slightly, "Elder Gu, please don't push your luck!"

Gu Huailiang sneered, his sinister eyes full of disdain, "I just made a suggestion for punishment that is satisfactory to everyone. How can you say that you are asking for more?"

If these nine heavenly thunders are inflicted upon one, one will be crippled even if he does not die.

What's more, Gu Xi is in the Jindan stage and it is even more likely that he will not be able to withstand the nine heavenly punishments he mentioned.

Gu Huailiang was really cunning and calculating. He knew that he couldn't sentence Gu Xi to death, so he thought of crippling her.

Yuanchu guessed that Yan Youdao would plan to punish Gu Xi, but she could barely accept the idea of ​​him going to the Cliff of Repentance.

It's just a little confinement. It's a bit cold, but it won't kill you.

But she could never accept the punishment of heavenly thunder.

Such a severe punishment, inflicting these nine heavenly thunders is no different from killing her!

"In the final analysis, Lu Ling's death was due to his selfishness. Gu Xi's fault is not at all. This punishment is too much. Yuanchu begs the master to show mercy!" Yuanchu looked at Yan Youdao and said anxiously.

"This punishment is too severe. Please think twice, Master!"

"Although Ah Xi made mistakes, the crime is not hers. Please, Master, show mercy!" Wei Lingyu and the other two hurried to the hall, knelt down and begged for mercy.

Wei Lingyu and the other three were not originally involved in this matter, so they were not invited into the hall, but Gu Xi was their good friend.

They couldn't just ignore what had happened to their friend, so they rushed to the hall as soon as they heard the news.

Mei Zishi then pleaded, "Master, please have mercy!"

Yan Youdao's thick eyebrows knitted together, he stroked his white beard with one hand, and said: "This... Elder Gu, do you think this punishment is too severe?"

"Heavy? I didn't ask Gu Xi to pay for my disciple's life, which was already a special favor. If the headmaster can't handle it impartially today, don't blame me for being heartless."

Gu Huailiang's ugly face, which showed a determination to never give up until he achieved his goal, made Yuan Chu feel extremely disgusted.

"Turning against your will? Elder Gu, you must be getting old and confused. With your ugly face, how can you still have the dignity to speak of?"

These words, which were almost offensive, made everyone in the hall gasp.

You should know that Gu Huailiang is more experienced than Yuanchu, and his cultivation has long entered the middle stage of the Spirit Severing Realm, while Yuanchu has just entered the Spirit Severing Realm and his realm is still unstable.

Besides, both of them are elders of the sect, and if they fight, it is hard to say who will win.

As soon as Yuanchu said this, Gu Huailiang's expression suddenly changed, and his face turned pale, "How dare you! Yuanchu, you little brat, you really look down on others!"

Yuanchu's lips revealed a hint of sarcasm and coldness, "Elder Gu, I say it again, it is absolutely impossible to let Gu Xi suffer the punishment of heavenly thunder."

In a flash, the atmosphere in the hall reached an extreme stalemate.

The atmosphere in the hall was tense for a while, and the two men were on the verge of a showdown.

The atmosphere in the hall was like a taut string that was about to break at any moment, making everyone present extremely nervous.

After all, it was a confrontation between the two great elders of the sect, one middle-aged and the other young, with a generation between them.

Yuan Chu looked at Gu Huailiang indifferently, his aura cold and tough, not giving in at all.

This old guy wants to touch Gu Xi, but he can just dream on about it! He doesn’t care about his old face.

It’s impossible in this life, and even more impossible in the next life!

Gu Huailiang glanced at Yuan Chu who was protecting Gu Xi. His eyes were like cold swords, icy and aggressive.

He sneered in his heart, Yuan Chu was really determined to protect Gu Xi.

She was willing to break off relations with him just to protect her 'good disciple'. He wanted to see if she had the ability to do so.

He had gone through many ups and downs in his life before he took the position of the master of this peak, and his mind was even deeper.

In recent years, the number of students at Yuyang Peak had been declining, and he had exhausted all his efforts to train Lu Ling into his favorite disciple. He also had high hopes for him, hoping that he would be able to support the family one day.

During this period, he had consumed countless magical resources on Lu Ling, and now he died so easily? Then all that he had invested in Lu Ling before would have been wasted.

Just because Gu Xi killed him, there was no way he would let her go.

Gu Huailiang's face was sullen, his eyes were as sharp as a falcon, and his expression was cold. He shouted again: "Elder Yuan, you really want to protect your evil disciple today, right?"

Yuan Chu frowned. She stood there with her back as straight as a pine tree and her eyes as sharp as torches. She stood in front of Gu Xi and did not move an inch.

No matter what she said, she would never let Gu Xi suffer such torture today.

She didn't kill the man at all, but she had to suffer this innocent disaster. Yuanchu couldn't accept it.

Yuanchu exuded a chill, and his handsome eyebrows were tightly knitted together. "Elder Gu is really old and confused. He can't understand what people say, right? Do you want me to say it again?"

As soon as these words came out, Gu Huailiang's eyebrows and eyes suddenly became sharp, his pupils shrank, and he said in a harsh voice: "Oh, you little brat, you really don't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is!"

In an instant, a powerful energy gathered from his palm. His body was as fast as lightning, and he attacked Yuan Chu's face with his palm.

Yuan Chu suddenly raised his eyes, his gaze slightly gloomy, and the spiritual power in his palm burst out in an instant.

She had guessed that the old man would not be able to resist and took action, so she had been prepared. Why would she launch a sneak attack here?

Damn it, he really has no moral principles at all!

The two surging spiritual powers collided with each other, shaking in the hall, unstoppable.

Even Yan Youdao, who was at the Hinayana level, was shaken by the impact, let alone the others in the hall who had lower cultivation levels.

Yuan Chu's eyes were calm and indifferent. He took his palm straight on without giving an inch.

She complained in her heart: This old guy is really difficult to deal with. He does have some strength, but so what?

She had practiced for such a long time, and it was not in vain.

Moreover, she knew very well that if she dodged the blow, it would only increase the old man's arrogance.

If we hide, it will probably make it more difficult to turn the situation around.

Moreover, this guy relied on his status in the sect to spoil his apprentice, causing a disaster and even implicated Gu Xi.

She didn't want to just tolerate such bullying.

Blindly tolerating will only make the abuser more aggressive. Instead of shrinking back, it is better to give it a try.

People always pick on the weak ones, but Yuanchu doesn't want to be a weak persimmon that can be picked on by others.

Compared with Yuanchu's calmness, in contrast was Gu Huailiang's angry and ashamed old face.

What he didn't expect was that he, who was about to break through to the peak of the Spirit Severing Realm, would be blocked by Yuan Chu, who had just advanced to the Spirit Severing Realm, and could not move forward at all.

His eyes, which revealed his energy, were filled with rage. If he couldn't defeat Yuan Chu, who was in the initial stage of distraction today, wouldn't it be a complete loss of face for him?

He exerted force with his hands again, gathering all the surging spiritual power in his body into his palms, and then struck Yuanchu again.

After all, there is some difference in realm. Yuan Chu frowned slightly, with coldness in his eyes.

She suppressed the bloody smell rising in her throat, but her back remained straight as she stood.

The actions of the two caused a huge uproar in the hall.

Yan Youdao realized that if he didn't take action to stop it, the situation would become more serious.

Then he said in a serious tone, "Stop it now! You two are both elders of the sect. How can you fight in the hall so openly?"

Then he summoned a spiritual power from his right hand and struck it into the intersection of the two spiritual powers, forcibly breaking through the spiritual power that was being pressed forward by the two people.
