Chapter 120: Wait
Hearing this, the young man’s expression darkened instantly, and he coldly replied:
"Junior Brother Wen, you can eat at random, but you must not speak carelessly!"
"If you have any grievances, go report me to the elders!"
After speaking, the young man sneered, showing his disdain.
Upon hearing this, the Mid Foundation Establishment disciple clenched his fist and could not help but retort:
"Lu Shao, who in the sect doesn’t know that Elder Lu from the Law Enforcement Hall is your father? Relying on the elder’s power to bully others in the sect is such a despicable act that it’s disgraceful!"
Before he could finish his words, the young man’s face turned dark:
"Wen Yu, I didn’t want to argue with you, but as a disciple of the sect, you shouldn’t speak carelessly about your brothers and the elders. Today, I will teach you a lesson!"
With that, the young man unleashed his aura and struck fiercely.
His hands transformed into a grayish color, surrounded by spiritual energy, and then he punched towards Wen Yu’s chest.
Faced with Lu Shao’s surprise attack, Wen Yu’s expression changed, but their realms were similar, and he quickly reacted by retreating while casting a dirt wall technique to protect himself.
Foundation Establishment cultivators have their True Essence solidified within, and paired with their Techniques, even without using any tools, each strike can be immensely powerful.
Moreover, Lu Shao was one realm higher than him, and in a direct confrontation, he knew he would not be his opponent.
As Wen Yu retreated hastily, Lu Shao’s iron fist arrived, easily smashing through the earth wall technique in an instant, and the momentum continued, lunging towards Wen Yu’s face.
If struck, even if he didn’t die, he would be heavily injured, showing that Lu Shao showed no mercy at all.
Amidst the gasps of the crowd, Wen Yu narrowly evaded the attack, but his long hair was blown back, leaving him looking extremely disheveled.
Wen Yu, having dodged the attack, shouted loudly:
"Lu Shao, you dare to strike openly in the sect! You are disrespecting the sect rules!"
Lu Shao laughed lightly, a hint of disdain on his face as he replied:
"Is that all? No wonder Junior Sister Lin doesn’t like you. Have you looked in the mirror? You dare compete with me!"
"Even if I am disrespecting the sect rules, today I will show you some consequences!"
The two fought fiercely, clashing again.
The onlookers hurriedly stepped back to avoid being hit by the shockwaves. Ji Yang, swept along in the crowd, watched the battle ahead while listening to the whispers of the other disciples around him, his expression thoughtful, yet he remained prepared to observe.
Both were at the Foundation Establishment stage, but Lu Shao clearly had the upper hand. Not only was he one minor realm higher, his Techniques, tools, combat skills, and experience far surpassed Wen Yu’s.
Although Wen Yu could still hold on, it wouldn’t be long before he was defeated.
The spectators shook their heads, recognizing the situation.
"Bang!"
As Wen Yu’s tool was knocked away, Lu Shao advanced forcefully and, relying on his superior strength, kicked Wen Yu several meters away.
Looking at the kicked Wen Yu, a smirk appeared on Lu Shao’s face, and he smiled:
"Junior Brother Wen, let me tell you the truth: Junior Sister Lin has been with me for a long time, you just didn’t know!"
Upon hearing this, Wen Yu’s eyes reddened, and he rose, wanting to fight back again.
At that moment, several figures appeared quickly in the sky.
Some disciples looked up and shouted:
"The Law Enforcement Hall is here!"
This made Lu Shao, who had been considering a counterattack, snort coldly:
"You’re lucky!"
However, Wen Yu, blinded by anger, stood up and charged at Lu Shao without remembering his status as a cultivator, deciding to use fists and feet. Many people shook their heads, showing a hint of regret.
Seeing this, Lu Shao sneered, just as the voice of the Law Enforcement Hall cultivator echoed from above:
"If you dare move again, we will take you down!"
With the arrival of several figures, the onlookers fell silent, and the angry Wen Yu was subdued by two law enforcement hall disciples.
"What’s going on?"
The lead law enforcement hall disciple scanned the surroundings, then someone stepped forward to recount the events.
Seeing the Law Enforcement Hall’s arrival, Ji Yang shook his head slightly and decided not to watch any longer. He prepared to retreat. He had come to uphold justice, but the current situation was too complex, making it difficult to distinguish right from wrong. He did not wish to act on subjective intentions.
He expected that the Law Enforcement Hall would deal with the matter fairly, and it wasn’t his place to intervene.
Just as Ji Yang stepped out of the crowd and prepared to find another place to seek his fortune, he heard the announcement from the law enforcement hall disciple:
"Inner disciple Wen Yu, you have attacked openly within the sect, and the situation is severe. According to the sect rules, you are sentenced to six months of mining!"
The onlookers murmured in surprise:
"Six months?!"
"I’m afraid you won’t be out for at least two years."
Hearing the last four words of the punishment, Ji Yang couldn’t help but sigh.
Six months?
This is just too generous!
Why isn’t it happening to me? Unfortunately, he didn’t have a childhood sweetheart.
Wait!
Wen Yu?
A glimmer of interest appeared in Ji Yang’s eyes. Before he could turn around, he heard Wen Yu’s loud shout:
"I refuse to accept this!"
"He started it! Why am I being punished instead of him?"
The onlooking disciples whispered among themselves, nodding in agreement.
Seeing the shift in the crowd’s mood, the lead law enforcement hall disciple snorted coldly, his Golden Core aura revealed, instantly suppressing all the disciples present.
"You refuse to accept? This is the sect’s punishment; whether you accept it or not, you have to!"
"You provoked first, the fault lies with you. Furthermore, you insulted an elder with your words and rightly deserve punishment. What do you have to contest?"
"Take him away!"
Under the overwhelming aura, all the disciples fell silent, too afraid to speak.
Only Lu Shao, across from Wen Yu, looked at him disdainfully and chuckled,
"Junior Brother Wen, you can’t compete with me in anything. What are you going to use to fight me? Your recklessness?"
Just as Wen Yu was about to be taken away, a voice rang out from the crowd again:
"Brothers, wait a moment!"
"Hmm?"
The lead law enforcement hall disciple’s expression turned cold. This was the inner sect’s law enforcement hall, with a higher level of cultivation, while all the disciples present were only at the Foundation Establishment stage. Who dared to obstruct their enforcement?
The several law enforcement hall disciples turned their gaze towards the speaker, and the disciple standing in front turned pale, shaking his head, quickly stepping aside while hurriedly explaining:
"It wasn’t me who said that!"
As the crowd voluntarily parted to clear a path, Ji Yang slowly walked out from the crowd!
"What do you want?"
The lead law enforcement hall disciple looked down from his height, and the two beside him cast scrutinizing looks at Ji Yang. When they realized that Ji Yang was only at the Initial Stage of Foundation Establishment, they sneered.
With such a realm, he dared to cause trouble; truly unaware of his own limitations.
Ji Yang stood confidently before them, looking at the lead law enforcement hall disciple and clasping his hands in greeting:
"May I ask how to address this senior?"
"Disciple of the sect’s law enforcement hall, Gong Ke!"
Gong Ke held his head high and spoke indifferently.
"Ah, it’s Senior Brother Gong! I’ve heard so much about you!"
"Hum!"
Hearing Ji Yang’s flattering remarks, others let out disdainful huffs.
They initially thought a senior brother was going to step in to help, but it turned out he was just trying to curry favor. That was even more despicable than Senior Brother Lu.
Many disciples shook their heads and chose not to watch any longer.
