The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 017
Chapter 017 Things Are Going to Get Big
Chen Jun’s mood these past few days was extremely depressed.
He was imprisoned by his grandfather for a few days before he was released today. Being defeated by an outer sect disciple was truly a disgrace. In these past few days, he had always wanted to find the place.
“Dong … Dong …” He heard the knock on the door and went out to open it.
“It’s you? What’s the matter?” Chen Jun asked impatiently.
“Li Qing has been taken to the Commandment Academy …” This person whispered, extremely vulgar.
“Oh?” Chen Jun’s spirits lifted, “What’s the situation?”
This person then gave Chen Jun a detailed account of the situation.
“Haha–” Chen Jun laughed loudly, his chest filled with frustration. “Heavens help me! Good job. Let’s go to the Commandment Academy.”
His grandfather was precisely the Commandment Elder. This time, Li Qing had been captured and taken to the Commandment Academy, but he had truly fallen into his hands. He had a good relationship with many people in the Academy and believed that there would be people who would be willing to help.
…
Chen Jun’s movements were extremely fast. He quickly arrived at the Commandment Academy, found Protector Zhang, who was on duty today, and whispered something in his ear.
“This” Protector Zhang was somewhat embarrassed, obviously unwilling.
He felt a little unhappy in his heart. Those who could become sect guardians were at least Xiantian experts. How could they do such a thing? If it weren’t for Chen Jun being the grandson of the Commandment Elder and having some friendship with him, he would probably have lost face on the spot.
Seeing Protector Zhang’s appearance, Chen Jun knew that he was reluctant. Fortunately, he had already prepared beforehand. He took out a porcelain bottle and shook it. He said to Protector Zhang, “I obtained a bottle of Barrier Breaking Pills a few days ago. If I can complete this matter, this bottle of pills will be yours.”
“Barrier Breaking Pill!” Protector Zhang’s expression changed, revealing a trace of greed. He said kindly, “Your matter is mine. I can still help you with this small favor.”
Wasn’t it just framing an outer sect disciple with no background? This matter was nothing more than a gesture of mercy to him. Protector Zhang thought to himself that this person was unlucky.
…
In the Commandment Hall, the interrogation began.
Protector Zhang sat high above the hall with a dignified expression.
Li Qing and Shi Wei stood in the middle of the hall and were under investigation.
The entrance was blocked by a lot of onlookers, they were discussing one after another, becoming very noisy.
“Silence!” Protector Zhang shouted loudly. The Xiantian expert’s aura was emitted, and the scene instantly became quiet.
He felt very satisfied and said, “I have a basic understanding of the situation. Li Qing, do you have any concrete evidence that the three of them came to your house in the middle of the night to attack you?”
“Evidence?” Li Qing was a little dumbfounded, how could there be any evidence? “Isn’t it the best evidence that these three people appeared in my courtyard in the middle of the night?” He asked curiously.
Protector Zhang frowned and said coldly, “What kind of evidence is this?”
Li Qing said, “For example, if someone comes to your house to steal something and you catch him in time, but there is no evidence, isn’t that person a thief?”
“Wrongly accused–” shouted Great Shi. “We were invited to his house last night, but who would have thought that he would suddenly ambush us, beat us three to death, and then tie us up with ropes and throw us into the yard. We are the victims.”
“Yes, yes.” The inner sect disciple was extremely miserable. His arm was broken, and he cried with tears and snot, “I’m so miserable…”
“A guest? Do I know you well?” Li Qing was speechless. These fellows’ ability to reverse black and white was not small. “Last night, no one came to my house as a guest. How can I fabricate it out of thin air?”
At this moment, Xu Nanrong brought people in and said to Protector Zhang, “We can testify that Li Qing did invite the three of them to be guests last night.”
Protector Zhang’s eyes lit up and he sneered, “Li Qing, what else do you have to say?”
Li Qing retorted, “How can an accomplice of a prisoner testify? It was this person who ordered the three of them to attack me last night, but now they beat me up.”
Xu Nanrong faintly smiled and said unhurriedly, “This person has already started to speak nonsense. How can his words have credibility if he is unconscious and fabricated?”
Protector Zhang nodded and said, “That makes sense. Li Qing, the witness is right in front of you. The facts are already clear, so don’t make pointless excuses. Do you know your crime?”
Li Qing came to his senses. There was something wrong with Protector Zhang. He was clearly the victim, but he interrogated himself like a criminal, ignoring Shi Wei and the others.
He sneered, “So you’re with them. The so-called Commandment Academy is just a nest of snakes and rats, colluding with other people and working together. I’ve seen it today.”
“How dare you!” Protector Zhang was furious. “You murdered your fellow disciples first, beat up the law enforcement disciples later, and now you dare to look down on me. I think you are lawless. Do you think that no one can cure you?”
After he finished speaking, he stood up. The aura of a Xiantian expert was emitted, and boundless True Qi suppressed Li Qing like an ocean tide, flowing endlessly.
Xiantian experts could communicate with the heavens and earth, release their true energy and kill people from afar!
“Kneel down!” He shouted loudly, wanting to suppress Li Qing.
Li Qing snorted. It was as if his body was about to be crushed by lightning. However, he gritted his teeth, veins popping up on his face as he stared at Protector Zhang unyielding.
“You want me to kneel?” Li Qing’s expression was ferocious and filled with madness.
At this moment, how much he longed for strength in his heart! If he possessed powerful strength, he would definitely blow up Protector Zhang in front of him with a single punch!
“Shh–”
The onlookers outside the door had already started to shout loudly and booed loudly.
The eyes of the crowd were bright. Li Qing was obviously the victim, but now he was being mercilessly suppressed. They were very dissatisfied with Protector Zhang’s favoritism.
“Silence!” Protector Zhang was very angry and shouted loudly.
But this time, it was useless, and the booing grew louder and louder. The practitioners’ voices were very loud and their energy was very strong. The voices of so many people echoed throughout the entire academy.
“Protector Zhang’s verdict is unfair! Let’s invite the elders to uphold justice!” Zhang Xiaolong and Zhou Bo hid in the crowd, shouting loudly to incite others.
The surrounding crowd was affected by these words and shouted loudly, “That’s right, invite the elders to uphold justice!”
This time, the sound was even louder, shaking the entire area. Protector Zhang’s face turned green. If he really attracted an elder, he wouldn’t be able to take it anymore.
“Protector Zhang must have accepted a bribe from someone else. This is clearly trying to kill Li Qing!”
“This is clearly a thief shouting to catch a thief. Do you really think we are fools? Can’t even see this clearly?”
“That’s right, the law enforcement team and the Commandment Academy don’t have any good stuff!”
…
“Silence! Silence-” Protector Zhang shouted loudly, but it was useless. He couldn’t help but feel extreme hatred in his heart. These onlookers were simply stuffed to the brim. Originally, it was only a small matter, but if this continued, it would become a big matter.
Li Qing couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief. He didn’t expect that even a grand sect guardian would actually bend the law for selfish ends and dare to frame him in front of everyone’s eyes. Could it be that this person was also related to Xu Nanrong and the others?
Looks like we have to get someone at a higher level to come forward. He hadn’t expected this to happen. Thanks to Zhang Xiaolong and Zhou Bo building up momentum in the crowd, they were able to mobilize everyone to resist Protector Zhang.
He himself did not have a backer in the sect, and the only powerful person he knew was probably Elder Liu. However, it was hard to say whether Elder Liu still remembered him or not.
Therefore, he had to take advantage of the situation to crush his opponent and sweep away all the people of the younger generation. So what if he was a Xiantian expert? Now that he was in the sect, he had to pay attention to the laws and rules. No matter how strong his strength was, it had to be restricted. This was the foundation that Li Qing had obtained.
