Refuse to trample on the pride of heaven

When the punishment was over, Jiang Jinfeng looked dying. He lay on the ground unconscious, with bright red blood soaking his clothes. No one came forward to help him up. Just as the disciples were about to pull him up to the cold pond, an anxious voice stopped them.

"Wait a minute!"

Jiang Xiuyuan arrived panting and saw his brother lying on the ground in a mess with a bad look on his face. He took a deep breath and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

"Can you delay the execution? If my brother goes to the cold pond in this state, I'm afraid he will die."

"Why is Jiang Xiuyuan here?" Song Wen frowned and looked at Lu Wensheng.

"Brother Lu, do you think Jiang Jinfeng will be able to escape?"

It was nothing more than Bai Wenche's order - Lu Wensheng saw it, and did not answer when he heard Song Wen's words.

The executing disciple stopped and looked at the only senior official at the scene, the second elder Jun Ning.

"My brother has committed a serious crime. I will not beg for mercy. He has received all the punishment he deserves. I only hope that Master-Uncle will show some leniency and spare my brother's life!"

Jiang Xiuyuan dropped his robe and knelt down, his face full of sorrow and pleading. Anyone who saw him would have praised his deep brotherly love.

Lu Wensheng thought something was not right. This punishment was decided by Bai Wenche, so the person would definitely not die. Moreover, some people had been treated more severely than this before. They looked miserable after being punished, but they would be alive and well if they were well taken care of.

A monk is not an ordinary mortal. Even if his cultivation is restricted, his body is still that of a monk. What's the matter? Is your brother too delicate? He can't do this or that. How can he be a monk?

They even spared your brother's life - it wasn't them who made the decision, if you want to ask, go ask your own master, why are you kneeling here and pretending to be pitiful? Instead, they are the villains.

Lu Wensheng felt that Jiang Xiuyuan's action was secondary to pleading for his brother, and the most important thing was to please others.

"Ahem, we are all from the same sect, so naturally our lives will not be in danger. However, the punishment was decided by Uncle Bai. Did Uncle Bai know that Senior Brother Jiang was here?"

Lu Wensheng thought for a while, then stood up, still looking weak.

Although the master didn’t say it directly, it was obvious that he wanted to save his brother by calling him out. However, if he admitted it directly, it would affect the master’s reputation, and he would have a hard time explaining it when he returned. If he didn’t admit it, his brother’s injury might be in trouble. . . . .

Jiang Xiuyuan's body stiffened and his brain worked frantically. In just a moment, his expression changed again, with self-blame and helplessness on his face.

"I am a little anxious, but Jin Feng is in a really bad condition right now..."

Ji Yanli, who had watched the show in silence for a long time, spoke up. His voice was cold and there was some subtle doubt in his tone: "Jiang Jinfeng was punished. After all, he is a direct disciple. There are also responsible disciples in Hantan. Why does Junior Brother Jiang think that he will be in trouble?"

There was confusion in his eyes, and he looked really strange.

Unexpectedly, this wave of finishing blows was done by Ji Yanli. Lu Wensheng almost laughed out loud in schadenfreude - sincerity is the ultimate skill.

"Yes, after all, we are from the same school. Senior Brother Jiang Jinfeng only stabbed me with a sword. I am a disciple of the Discipline Hall after all, and I will not abuse my power for personal gain. Don't worry, Senior Brother Jiang~" Lu Wensheng said this in a sarcastic tone, and many people looked at Jiang Xiuyuan with strange expressions.

The cold pond is a place for cultivators. Besides, can the pills in those people's hands be as good as his? ! If you drag your weak body in, you will be thinner when you come out! Not to mention that you will have some problems! Lu Wensheng must have done it on purpose!

Although Jiang Xiuyuan had a smile on his face, he looked back at Lu Wensheng with a cold look, warningly.

Lu Wensheng looked at him without fear. After all, they had already fallen out a long time ago - he maintained his patient status, and to outsiders he still looked like a wounded disciple. In fact, he relied on his close proximity to Jiang Xiu, and the mockery and ridicule in his eyes were so obvious that he even raised his eyebrows provocatively.

Jun Ning knew that Bai Wenche was a thoughtful disciple, so she warned him coldly, "So what exactly do you want to do this time? I don't know whether your master knows about it or not. If Bai Wenche regrets disposing of his disciple and wants to stop him, go call your master over and tell me in person."

Jiang Xiuyuan was gritting his teeth in anger, but he was at a disadvantage at the moment. After several tugs, the Second Elder saw that he was getting a little impatient. Jiang Jinfeng was usually overbearing and had a bad relationship with others. Most of these disciples just watched the fun and no one spoke up for him...

I don’t know how much trouble this impulsive brother will cause him!

"...Junior nephew knows that it was his own will that made this trip. Master was not aware of it and he was just thinking wrongly." Jiang Xiuyuan finally gave in - after all, he had done his best. Jiang Jinfeng, that idiot, needed to suffer a lesson and hopefully he would be more sober when he comes back.

No idea whether he was angry or because he felt sorry for his brother and couldn't bear to see his miserable state, but Jiang Xiuyuan said goodbye and left after he gave in.

[Their brotherhood is pretty fake.] The system ate electronic melon seeds.

"There is still brotherhood, but it only exists when Jiang Xiuyuan's own interests are not harmed..."

Lu Wensheng watched Jiang Jinfeng being taken away with cold eyes, but his expression was much more relaxed.

"Finally, someone has found a way to discipline Jiang Jinfeng..." It was a lie for Song Wen to say he was unhappy. Everyone knew that he didn't like Jiang Jinfeng, so he didn't hide the pride on his face at all.

Ji Yanli: "Be careful or he'll hold a grudge against you." Uncle Bai is a good person, why are all his disciples like this?

"Let him hold a grudge against me. He has been displeased with me for a long time. Am I still fine?" Song Wen didn't care.

Lu Wensheng glanced at him - if he remembered correctly, this unlucky child was later thrown by the two brothers to feed the monsters, and even his body was not found.

"Now that the problem is solved, I will go back first." Lu Wensheng said goodbye to them.

Ji Yanli looked at the person and seemed to be hesitant to speak, but he didn't say a word until the person walked away.

--------------

"Brother Lu! Help me!"

Lu Wensheng received a lot of care after he returned. Although he was strict with the disciples in the Discipline Hall, he had a good relationship with them. Jun Ning also gave him a lot of things as compensation.

Since the injuries were not serious, Lu Wensheng quickly returned to his normal life.

Today, as soon as he came back with the sword, he saw a disciple from the Discipline Hall.

The other person's name is Tang He, an inner sect disciple with good talent. Like most sword cultivators, he is in great need of spirit stones because he needs to maintain, polish and take care of his "lover".

Tang He has started doing legitimate business recently. Ahem, it’s not that he was not legitimate before, it’s just that he took orders to do things for other cultivators, and he either burned the materials for making pills or talismans, or he had conflicts with his employers. Internal fighting is not allowed, so it was Lu Wensheng who went to arrest them.
