Chapter 33 Whipping
Pang Zhixue agreed and said calmly, "Article 20 of the sect's rules: Sword sect disciples should unite and help each other. If anyone plots against a fellow disciple and does something to harm others, the minimum penalty will be ten lashes, and the maximum penalty will be a thunderbolt that will destroy both the body and soul, depending on the severity of the crime."
"It is clear that Ye Zhaozhao intended to harm others, but it did not cause serious consequences. He is sentenced to ten lashes."
Ten lashes...
Ye Zhaozhao’s face turned pale.
This is already the lightest punishment for framing a fellow disciple, but the flogging in the Law Enforcement Hall is not so pleasant!
After these ten lashes, she might have to lie down for a while! "Master." Ye Zhaozhao looked at Lingxu Zhenren pleadingly.
Master Lingxu had a grim expression on his face.
This verdict, rather than being a blow to Ye Zhaozhao, was more like a blow to Lingxu Zhenren's face! He was the one who drove Li Shuang away.
He was the one who protected Ye Zhaozhao.
Doesn't this mean that he has misjudged someone? At this point, rather than defending Ye Zhaozhao, it is more like defending his own face. Lingxu Zhenren said coldly: "Zhaozhao can accept this caning. But what about Li Shuang? She abandoned her fellow disciples on the snowy mountain. Should she also be punished?"
Without Li Shuang's response, Pang Zhixue said, "If there is solid evidence regarding the matter on Xueshan Mountain, the law should naturally be enforced."
Implications.
There is no evidence at all regarding the snow mountain incident.
Although Sheng Yuan and his friends were partial to Ye Zhaozhao, they were not so far as to lie with their eyes open. As for the so-called abandonment of their fellow disciples, no one else witnessed it except Ye Zhaozhao.
Li Shuang had a different story. There was no solid evidence to support what she and Ye Zhaozhao said.
That being the case.
This is an unsolved case. How should it be decided?
Lingxu gritted his teeth, his face cold and indifferent: "One day, the truth about the snow mountain will be revealed. When the time comes, I will see how you will deal with it."
Li Shuang said calmly: "I am waiting for the day when the truth comes out."
Zhenren Lingxu snorted coldly. He was holding back his anger, but he had nothing to say.
"Then, let's enforce the law." Pang Zhixue said, "Ye Zhaozhao is a Yuanying-stage disciple, so the law enforcement should also be done by Yuanying-stage disciples. Yun Ge, you come."
Jiang Yunge, a disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall, responded and a whip with black on top and red on the bottom appeared in his hand.
Water represents Xuanwu, Xuanwu is in the north and represents the color black.
Fire represents Vermilion Bird, which is in the south and represents the color red.
Water and fire are merciless, and so are sect rules.
The Law Enforcement Hall is the law enforcement agency of the Sword Sect. It symbolizes the whip of fair and just law enforcement, and intimidates all disciples of the sect.
Ye Zhaozhao's body was shaking. She wanted to say something, but the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall took away her Dragon Roar Sword and pushed her to the ground.
"Junior Sister!" Chang Le'an became anxious and rushed forward to stop her.
Lingxu Zhenren raised his hand and stopped him expressionlessly: "It is a crime for a sect disciple to interfere with law enforcement."
Chang Le'an's eyes turned bloodshot. Was he just going to let him look at him like this? Sheng Yuan pursed his lips tightly.
He just thought that Ye Zhaozhao was wrong, but now he felt that Li Shuang was too cruel.
Senior Sister...
When did he develop such an unforgiving character!
Under the gaze of everyone.
The first whip fell.
Ye Zhaozhao knew that she couldn't escape the punishment this time, so she originally wanted to endure it and at least show her integrity.
However, as the whip landed, a piercing pain came up.
Ye Zhaozhao had never suffered such pain before, and she started howling loudly on the spot.
However.
The second whip fell immediately afterwards.
Ye Zhaozhao screamed even louder, tears and snot streaming down her face.
Sheng Yuan's heart trembled when he saw this.
Ye Zhaozhao had never suffered such hardship since entering Lingxu Peak.
After these ten whips, she didn't know how painful it would be.
Chang Le'an looked at Li Shuang with anger in his eyes! It was all Li Shuang!
Otherwise, how could Junior Sister suffer such a punishment?
The third and fourth whips...
Jiang Yunge was speechless when listening to Ye Zhaozhao's howling.
This was not her first time enforcing the law, but Ye Zhaozhao was the only one who behaved so exaggeratedly.
but.
No matter how much Ye Zhaozhao cried, she still carried out the ten whips without missing a single one. Then, Jiang Yunge retreated back to the crowd.
Ye Zhaozhao was lying on the ground, unable to make any sound.
Chang Le'an was the first to rush over and hugged Ye Zhaozhao with some heartache.
He looked at Li Shuang angrily: "Are you satisfied with the current situation?"
Li Shuang said calmly: "All I wanted was fairness. Now that my wish has been fulfilled, I am naturally satisfied."
Chang Le'an gritted his teeth and looked at her with a hint of hatred in his eyes.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
He is really angry!
This time, what Li Shuang did was really too much.
He will never forgive this senior sister again!
Sheng Yuan glanced at Li Shuang with a complicated expression, and then said: "Third Junior Brother, there is no need to say anything more. Take Junior Sister back to heal her injuries first."
Chang Le'an suppressed his anger, nodded, and was about to take Ye Zhaozhao away.
Hong Sheng's voice sounded lazily: "The punishment within your Sword Sect has been completed, but the matter with my Spiritual Weapon Pavilion is not over yet."
Ye Zhaozhao originally looked like she had been beaten unconscious, but now, her eyelashes couldn't help but move slightly!
She was a little annoyed. How could such a trivial matter not be resolved? Lingxu Zhenren said angrily, "Mr. Hong, Zhao Zhao has been punished. What else do you want? It's a business matter. It's something that we both agreed to. Can you blame Zhao Zhao for everything?"
Hong Sheng nodded and said, "Of course not. Manager Qiu's mistakes are equally huge. When someone from the Spiritual Equipment Pavilion headquarters arrives, he will be stripped of his position as manager and fined a huge amount."
"And then?" Master Lingxu looked at him coldly.
Hong Sheng smiled and said, "Over the years of cooperation, Manager Qiu has gained a lot of benefits. Ye Zhaozhao is a disciple of the Sword Sect. Because he values the Sword Sect, he gives Ye Zhaozhao a full share of dividends. Over the past few years, Ye Zhaozhao has received thousands of high-quality spirit stones in dividends. Manager Qiu has also sorted out the specific list. Manager Qiu, you should give this list to Hall Master Pang as well."
Manager Qiu looked at Ye Zhaozhao with resentment, then handed the list to Pang Zhixue.
As soon as the blind box incident broke out today, he knew that his position as manager might be unstable.
He made a prompt decision and gave all his savings of many years to Hong Gongfeng and asked him to make this trip.
His purpose is simple.
First, he is in such a miserable state now, and he must not let Ye Zhaozhao have an easy time.
Second, the Spirit Weapon Pavilion would definitely fine him, so Ye Zhaozhao would have to pay some of the spirit stones.
Pang Zhixue flipped through it and his eyes changed slightly.
A disciple in the Nascent Soul stage has accumulated thousands of high-quality spirit stones over the years.
This wealth is truly astonishing.
This booklet also records in detail the money-making methods provided by Ye Zhaozhao.
All I can say about these methods is... although they can make money, they are too greedy.
In other words, the Spiritual Weapon Pavilion has a century-old reputation to support it, so the matter has not become a big deal for the time being.
Otherwise.
Even if Li Shuang hadn't exposed it, Ye Zhaozhao and Manager Qiu's actions would sooner or later lead to a big explosion! Thousands of high-quality spirit stones!
Zhenren Lingxu couldn't help but glance at Ye Zhaozhao.
He has a small habit of being greedy for money. Another reason why he is so partial to Ye Zhaozhao is that Ye Zhaozhao often takes the initiative to give him spirit stones.
Every time, Ye Zhaozhao was sincere and said that this was all her fortune.
Seeing her filial attitude, Master Lingxu couldn't help but favor Ye Zhaozhao more.
But now I see...
She actually had thousands of high-quality spirit stones in her personal possession. So what did she give to me as a gift...
Lingxu Zhenren's expression couldn't help but change slightly.
