Chapter 28: Shock

  Tianjian Sect, holds Xing Tai.

  In the Tianjian Sect, if one were to say that there is no difference between outer and inner disciples, it would be in regards to the Execution Platform. The Execution Platform, as its name suggests, is a place where punishments are carried out. Regardless of whether they are outer or inner disciples, as long as they have seriously violated the sect's rules and exceeded the limits of what their master can handle, they will be brought here by the sect's law enforcement team to be judged and punished by the Elder of Discipline.

  It's ironic that the elder of the Discipline Sect had protected his own grandson three or four times, not allowing him to ascend to this Execution Platform. Today, however, it was someone else who brought his grandson to this platform, and what's more, it was a corpse that had been dead for a long time.

  Who says that the Execution Platform can only carry out punishments on the living? Today, I, Ling Qingyan, will make it known to all disciples of the Tianjian Sect, whether they are outer or inner sect disciples, that the Execution Platform can also carry out punishments on the dead!

  Ling Qing dragged Wen Yi's body onto the Execution Platform, where it was hung from a chain that seemed to have fallen from the sky.

  The area of the execution platform was approximately nearly one hundred square meters, and in the middle stood several thick steel pillars. On top of the steel pillars were either poured concrete or wrapped chains... At this time, Ling Qingyan was putting Wen Yi's corpse into a chain hanging from the middle steel pillar.

  Around the Zhixing Platform, a large number of outer and inner disciples had gathered. Among them were people who knew Ling Qingyan, and they were all shocked. This usually gentle and amiable Ling Qingyan was now wildly arrogant and unbridled, dragging Wen Yi's corpse to the Zhixing Platform.

  Doubt! Extreme doubt!

  ………

  Jian Xiao Ge's backyard.

  A hastily arriving inner disciple rushed into the courtyard, and as soon as he entered, he was panting and looking anxiously at Master Lian Jun, who was still sitting by the stone table in the courtyard, closing his eyes to savor the fragrance of tea.

  "What's going on here, where has your usual mental discipline gone?" Lian Jun couldn't help but furrow his brow as he looked at the disciple in front of him.

  This disciple did not dare to show any dissatisfaction on his face, and could only nod to indicate that he understood. After a few breaths, the disciple looked at Lian Jun and said in a still somewhat hoarse voice: "Master, something's wrong... Inner sect disciple Ling Qingyan is dragging the corpse of Wen Yi, the son of Precept Master Sun, towards Zhixing Platform..."

  "Bang!"

  The tea cup in his hand suddenly fell to the ground, and Lian Jun stood up without any elegance, dashing forward like lightning and grabbing the arm of the disciple in front of him. "You, what did you just say?!"

  "I said," the disciple felt the pressure transmitted between the two hands of the sect master, only to feel that his bones were about to break, and he trembled with fear, saying: "Inner door disciple 'Ling Qingyan', dragging the corpse of Precept Master 'Wen Yi' towards 'Zhi Xingtai'!"

  "Why didn't you say so earlier!"

  As he uttered these words, a deep purple true energy suddenly burst out from Jun Hun's body, and in the blink of an eye, he had already flashed out of the courtyard.

  This disciple couldn't help but rub his sore arm, which had been grabbed by Lian Jun, and muttered: "Obviously you just told me not to be impatient and anxious..."

  The figure shrouded in the deep purple aura of true power, just as it was about to leave the Sword Whistle Pavilion, suddenly stopped dead in its tracks. For at this moment, a voice that he usually revered like a god suddenly rang out in his mind -

  "Jun Er, I need an explanation! What's going on with Wen Yi? Why didn't you punish him for bullying the female disciples from other sects in the past?"

  His dignified voice was filled with a hint of anger, causing Jian's body to tremble suddenly. Immediately after, as if knowing that his master could hear him, he said: "Master, I'm afraid of Tian He Shidi..."

  "Hmmph!"

  Guan Zhong's cold hum suddenly echoed in Lian Jun's mind, "At first I asked you to take good care of your Tianhe Shidi, but I didn't say that you should cover up even this kind of thing! You are now the master of the Tianjian Sect, and every move represents the Tianjian Sect. If you do this, won't it make the outer sect disciples feel disheartened? When I passed on the position to you, I made it clear that for a sect that can be passed down for many years, both inner and outer sect disciples are equally important and cannot be neglected! Inner sect disciples are the foundation of a sect, while outer sect disciples are the basis of a sect. Have you forgotten all these?"

  Lian Jun Kou's Tian He Shidi is actually the current Jian Zong's Jie Lu Zhang Lao, Wen Yi's paternal grandfather "Wen Tian He".

  "The apprentice hasn't forgotten," Lian Jun's face was filled with shock and fear, and from his master's words, he deeply felt the master's boundless anger.

  "Haven't forgotten? Alright...... You're really good......"

  Guan Zhong's voice seemed somewhat urgent and sarcastic, "In short, the outcome of this matter must satisfy us old guys. Otherwise, you won't be needed as the sect leader!"

  "Yes!"

  Upon hearing Guan Zhong's last words, Lian Jun also breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that there was still room for redemption and Master could forgive himself.

  Actually, over the years, Wen Yi had done many despicable things, and he wanted to punish him several times, but it was all because of the arrival of Master Wen Tianhe that nothing came of it. Every time, Wen Tianhe would use his master's name to get his own grandson off scot-free. Back then, Wen Tianhe's master had also been extremely fond of Lian Jun, and had taught him without reservation, making him almost like a half-master to Lian Jun.

  Because of this, thinking back to Yun Shifu's untimely death, only Wen Tianhe's disciple was left, and Lian Jun was a moment of tenderness.

  At the moment when his body shape flashed again, Lian Jun already knew how to do it this time. In his heart, he also sighed secretly, "Tianhe Shidi, this time in order to calm down Master and all the masters' anger, I can no longer be partial..."

  ………

  Tianjian Sect had a very remote courtyard, where a robust and sturdy old man was sitting cross-legged on the lawn.

  Suddenly, a voice burst forth from the robust old man's mind, "You little brat!"

  "Who!"

  The robust old man suddenly opened his tightly closed eyes, and in an instant, he stood up like a bronze bell, "Who is it that dares to pretend to be a ghost and scare me!"

  "Who the hell are you?"

  The robust old man only clearly heard the voice at this time, and patted his own occipital bone repeatedly. The face full of whiskers was smiling, "Master, how do you have time to come and chat with your disciple..."

  "Who wants to chat with you!"

  There was a hint of exasperation in his voice, "All these years, you and your senior brother have made progress, but the sect has produced failures like Wen Yi. You didn't even take action to punish him! What I taught you back then, did you learn it from dogs?"

  "Master, I..."

  When he mentioned the eldest brother of his master, Wen Tianhe's younger brother's own grandson, a strong and sturdy old man suddenly appeared on his face with a hint of grievance, just about to explain...

  "I'm too lazy to listen to your nonsense, go and execute the order. Remember, don't let that young man named 'Ling Qingyan' get hurt in any way. Otherwise, I'll come over and kill you myself!"

  "Yes! Yes!"

  A robust and elderly man did not dare to be lazy, although he had previously been on familiar terms with his master without distinction of seniority or juniority. However, when the master was truly serious, he also did not dare to be presumptuous.

  They are indeed a pair of living treasure masters and apprentices!

  ………

  At the same time, several remote courtyards of the Tianjian Sect also burst out with multiple figures surging with purple light.

  However, looking at these fleeting figures, it's still a bit slow.

  The Vinaya Elder had already received the report from the inner disciples earlier and went to the Execution Platform. With the degree of protection that Vinaya Elder Wen Tianhe has for his juniors, before the arrival of Zong Zhuo Jian and others, he will definitely make a fatal move on Ling Qingyan.
