vrcanaries Chapter 42 Punishment
Chapter 42 Punishment
Next, Su Yi announced the punishment for the four elders of the Su family. Since he said that they could not escape the punishment while alive, then the punishment must not be as simple as talk.
"The second and third elders seem to be closest to the first elder, so I think the punishment should be heavier. How about removing the two elders from their positions as elders? If I remember correctly, the Su family's stable is still short of two people to clean horse manure, so I'll trouble the two elders."
At this point, Su Yi didn't care what they were thinking, and added in a cold voice: "Oh, by the way, before that, I hope the two elders will go to the family's criminal hall to accept punishment. According to the family rules, those who deliberately usurp the throne will have their cultivation abolished and be expelled from the Su family. Since the two elders have not harmed the Su family, they will be punished with a thousand strokes of the cane and clean the stables for a year. If they dare to do something out of line again in the future, don't blame me for being merciless."
After hearing Su Yi's words, the two elders turned pale. Although their cultivation was at the third level of the Saint Yuan Initial Stage, being beaten with a stick a thousand times was a very fatal punishment for them, not to mention cleaning the stables for a year.
You know, their status in the Su family has always been second only to the head of the family, but now Su Yi asks them to clean the stables. They are used to enjoying wealth and glory, but now they have to experience the life of inferior servants. This is even more painful than killing them.
However, in order to survive, they had to agree...
"Yes, we accept the punishment." The second and third elders said angrily, and they looked like they had aged by ten years.
Su Yi nodded, patted the two on the shoulders and said, "From now on, you have nothing to do here. Since the two elders have accepted the punishment, go down first!"
The second elder and the third elder looked disappointed, and finally walked out of the Su family's meeting room with dejected steps.
As these two people left, the expressions of the remaining two elders tightened, and there was a hint of fear in their eyes when they looked at Su Yi.
At this time, Su Yi said calmly: "Fourth Elder, although you and the Fifth Elder are not very close to the Great Elder, you also made mistakes at this critical moment. Then go to the Criminal Court to receive 800 sticks, and then go to the Accounting Office to receive two blood-activating grasses each. As for the position of elder, keep it for now."
When the Fourth Elder and the Fifth Elder heard this, they immediately showed joy on their faces. Compared with the punishment imposed on the previous two elders, this punishment was already much lighter.
"Thank you, Young Master. We two will accept the punishment!" The fourth elder and the fifth elder hurriedly accepted the punishment, and then they both left the hall and headed for the Criminal Court.
After the four elders left one after another, only Su Yi and Ning Xueer were left in the room.
Ning Xueer looked at Su Yi puzzledly and asked, "How do you know that the Xuanyuan Sword Sect's Dragon Binding and Locking Heaven Formation was broken and it has something to do with your Su family's great elder?"
Today's battle for the head of the Su family was all thanks to Ning Xue'er. From this incident, Su Yi should thank her, so he answered without hiding anything: "Because I originally thought that this matter was a bit strange. From the time the Su family rushed to the Land of Strange Visions to the time I left Xuanyun City yesterday, less than an hour and a half had passed. Xuanyuan Sword Sect is one of the four major sects of the Great Yan Kingdom, and the strength of the elders in the sect must be extraordinary. Even if the forces rushing to the Land of Strange Visions unite, they cannot break through the defense of the Xuanyuan Sword Sect elders in a short time."
"According to my understanding, there are twelve points in the Dragon Binding Sky Locking Formation. It will definitely take a lot of time to find the point and defeat the guardian elders... and then break the point. However, they only broke the formation after the dragon souls finished fighting. Therefore, it will definitely take no more than an hour to break the twelve points of the Dragon Binding Sky Locking Formation. During this period, they also need to find the position of the needle eye and defeat the elders of the Xuanyuan Sword Sect. If they are not prepared in advance, one hour will not be enough. Therefore, I guess someone must have leaked the news that the Xuanyuan Sword Sect was going to set up the Dragon Binding Sky Locking Formation, which caused the dragon soul of the Dark Fallen Dragon to break through the seal of the formation ahead of time."
“And the only people who knew in advance that Xuanyuan Sword Sect was going to set up the Dragon Binding and Locking Heaven Formation were the people of Xuanyuan Sword Sect, so I guess that Su Fan must have leaked the news that he was going to set up the Dragon Binding and Locking Heaven Formation to our Su family’s elder. In order to get the position of the patriarch of the Su family, the elder might have made a plan and spread the news. I was not sure at first, but from his panicked expression, I could see that he was hiding the truth, so…”
"So you were not sure at the beginning and were just trying to trick him, right?" Ning Xueer frowned slightly. Su Yi had noticed something that she had not thought of, which showed how meticulous his mind was.
But Ning Xue'er could never have imagined that in such an extremely unfavorable situation, Su Yi still dared to say words of trial, and was able to observe the words and expose the eldest elder of the Su family in public. Even she had to admit that his courage and meticulousness were far beyond the reach of ordinary people.
"What if the Su family's great elder didn't know about it, and you guessed wrong?" Ning Xue'er asked puzzled.
"Well..." Su Yi touched his nose and replied, "This doesn't seem to be a question you should be concerned about!"
Ning Xue'er finally understood. It turned out that this guy was just guessing. He spoke seriously and it seemed to be true, but he couldn't explain it clearly when she really asked him. She now suspected that Su Yi was gambling just now, betting that the Great Elder would reveal a flaw, and those exciting words might have been just said on a whim, not predicted in advance... to lure the Great Elder of the Su Family into a trap.
This guy...
.......
.......
But the truth was not what Ning Xueer thought. Su Yi had always felt that there was something fishy about this matter. He was 80% sure that he was right, so he dared to reveal the Great Elder's plan in front of everyone. As for what Ning Xueer said, what would happen if she guessed wrong?
Then Su Yi just wants to say...
If you guessed wrong, you guessed wrong. Just express it in a different way!
In that situation, if the Great Elder reacted violently, it would definitely prove that he had something to hide, but if he remained calm, then he could only say sorry.
After all, he, the Great Elder, is not the only one who can put accusations on others; Su Yi can do it too!
He will not be merciful when dealing with his enemies. Just like when the Great Elder slandered Su Tianyun before, Su Yi just gave him a taste of his own medicine.
But the results were the same. If the Great Elder had not spread the news that the Xuanyuan Sword Sect had set up the Dragon Binding and Sky Locking Formation, he would at most not have offended the Xuanyuan Sword Sect. As for the dispute over the head of the Su family, he would naturally have to pay the price as the person involved.
To put it another way, if Su Yi hadn't won the position of patriarch for Su Tianyun today, then the tragedy would be for them, and vice versa...
When the eldest elder of the Su family had a falling out with Su Tianyun... and injured Su Tianyun, he was already a dead man in Su Yi's eyes.
