"Ouch~ Really, those bastards were really ruthless. If I had known, I shouldn't have been the first to rush in out of the heat of the moment."

"Isn't it the same situation for the people who just followed me? We shouldn't have gone up in the first place. How can we be a match for those people? They are professionals!"

"Exactly. Who told us to charge? It's really killing people."

…

After the battle between Master Gu Jian and Lei Zuo's men, although Master Gu Jian won, they all sat on the ground and complained bitterly.

It's not their fault. After all, Lei Zuo's men are all well-trained bodyguards. It would be easy for them to deal with ordinary people. Even if they had twenty or thirty more people, it would be useless.

It was Lin Han who had to exert his strength and knock down those bodyguards while they were fighting, otherwise they would definitely lose.

But unfortunately, Lei Zuo ran away.

When he saw that the situation was not good, he ran away. Lin Han was unable to chase him and could only watch him run away through the back door.

At this time, Xiaoxiang and Zhao Hui were both covering their mouths and laughing secretly.

After all, they were the ones who encouraged those people to rush forward mindlessly, while they just stayed behind and watched the show.

After all, they are not that stupid, and they are also weak women who are powerless, so it is a wise choice not to fight with those people.

"How about it? Are you still going to be the first to take action?" Lin Han wrapped a bunch of ice cubes in a towel from the refrigerator in the next room and threw them to Qin Yu.

Qin Yu was not feeling well either. After all, he didn't know any fighting or self-defense techniques. If he rushed forward, he would just be used as a punching bag and get punched.

And he was the first one to rush forward, so he was beaten black and blue. It can be said that even his father would not recognize this guy.

Qin Yu's eyes were swollen, as was his face, so it was hard to tell what his expression was, and he was probably too lazy to open his mouth.

After he took the towel, he applied it to his face.

However, his actions were not meaningless. It was because he rushed forward without hesitation that made the group of ancient appraisers recognize him again.

If those people hadn't helped Lin Han share the pressure, Lin Han would have been defeated in the end because of being outnumbered when facing so many people alone.

"The trial begins again!"

At this moment, old man Chongyang suddenly climbed up from the ground, looked at the group of people sitting on the ground with a gloomy face, and said coldly.

Those people were none other than the Leizuo family, some of them were accomplices to the evil, and now the leaders were the two old men Gao Shan and Liu Shui.

Lei Zuo ran away, but they did not run away. However, they had nowhere to run. After all, where could they go in the deep mountains and forests?

There was only one helicopter left in this place. There was no doubt that it had been taken away by Lei Zuo.

So they have nowhere to go.

Moreover, if one honestly accepts the trial, there is a possibility of a lighter sentence.

After hearing Chongyang's words, the others were in awe. They took the others to stand aside, and those who were seriously injured sat on the bench.

Seeing this, Lin Han also came between Xiaoxiang and Zhao Hui and watched how the trial proceeded.

The previous trial was against Chongyang, but it was interrupted by him. Now Chongyang has regained power and now controls the court.

“Boom!”

The gloomy old man Chongyang hit the table hard with a wooden hammer, and this hammer seemed to hit the hearts and souls of the people in the center, and their bodies trembled.

They panicked!

"Do you know your crime?" asked old man Chongyang coldly.

They did not refute, but nodded one by one and admitted their guilt. After all, this was just what happened just now, and everyone here saw the mistake they made.

The evidence is irrefutable; there is no need to quibble.

"I know that some of you were threatened by Lei Zuo and had no choice but to work for him. I will not hold your mistakes against you."

Old man Chongyang said after taking a look at the people in the audience.

There are a lot of people here, and even more have surrendered to the Lei family, so if they want to deal with all of them, there won’t be many ancient appraisers left.

If this fragmented situation continues, it will only become more and more difficult to reverse, and in the end, I am afraid that the entire ancient appraisal division will disappear in the long river of history.

However, people must be punished to serve as a warning to others. Otherwise, they will realize that they will not be punished for their mistakes and will only make more mistakes, which is not what he wants to see.

"Everyone in the Lei family, and Liu Shui, you are the masterminds of this rebellion, so I will expel you from the Ancient Mirror Master, and you will not be able to call yourself an Ancient Mirror Master in the future."

Liushui and the others nodded slightly after hearing this. It was not a death sentence because they were all ancient appraisers, companions and family members. They would not ask for more.

"As for today's warriors, your loyalty will be duly rewarded!"

Old man Chongyang glanced at the injured people and nodded slightly in approval.

Rewards and punishments should be clearly defined. Not only punishments but also rewards should be given. Only in this way can people be convinced and have a sense of belonging. Otherwise, who would be willing to make sacrifices for this family?

"good!"

"Very good!"

Those people clenched their fists and were very excited.

At this time, Chongyang looked at Lin Han and others and continued, "As for the previous trial, it has now come to a conclusion."

At this point, everyone quieted down, pricked up their ears, and listened very carefully to what Chongyang was going to say next.

"Lin Han passed the ancestral trial and successfully retrieved an ancient artifact. So he is innocent and released without charge!"

"Yeah!" Xiaoxiang and Zhao Hui jumped up happily after hearing the verdict.

Qin Yu also breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately he showed a hint of doubt and looked around, as if he was looking for something.

Lin Han is not guilty, so the ones who are guilty are Zhou Yalun and others who framed Lin Han, but where are they?

Also, where are his daughters? Why haven't we seen them yet?

Logically speaking, when Lei Zuo was judging Chongyang here, they should have been here as well!

"Could it be..." Qin Yu frowned, and an ominous premonition arose from the bottom of his heart.

"Excuse me, has anyone seen my daughter?"

Qin Yu suddenly shouted to the others, and everyone who heard his question looked at each other and shook their heads.

"No, I haven't seen it since the trial ended this afternoon."

"I saw her discussing something with Zhou Yalun. Oh, and I didn't see Zhou Yalun and the others either. Where did they go?"

…

"Someone, go find Qin Xiangcao and the others right away. Check who else is missing as well."

Chongyang also noticed that something was wrong, so he gave an order and someone went out to look for Qin Xiangcao and others.

The Guyou Temple was actually not very big and there were not many rooms. After a while, all the people came back.

But they all looked very ugly, which spoke volumes.
