Chapter 1289: Hit him twice?!
Chapter 1289: Hit him twice?!
The moment Mingchuan saw this person, his eyebrows raised and a look of astonishment appeared in his eyes.
As expected of a powerful warrior in the late Nascent Soul stage, the aura he displayed when he first appeared was completely different from that of an ordinary person. I'm afraid that a few earth-type warriors could kill a group of people in seconds, right?
Mingchuan’s thoughts left Dulong speechless.
"Can you please focus a little? This guy is about to punish you, and you're actually sighing at how strong he is?"
Mingchuan was shocked. "Then punish him, what else can I do? But I have a feeling his punishment today won't be successful."
Elder Huo Shi was unaware of Mingchuan's thoughts. He put his hands behind his back, and an invisible aura emanated from his body.
He circled around Mingchuan twice, looking him up and down, a mocking smile on his face as he asked, "I heard you've been very popular in the sect recently. The sect leader and your eldest brother are very optimistic about you. Are you showing a lot of favor?"
Mingchuan smiled and bowed slightly: "Venerable Fire Lion thinks too highly of his disciple. There is no such thing as being in the limelight."
Elder Huoshi sneered repeatedly. He narrowed his eyes and stared at Mingchuan: "Really? I saw that what you said was true. Otherwise, how dare you do this to my disciples?!"
As soon as Lord Fire Lion finished speaking, he was suddenly attacked by a strong sense of pressure from all around, as if it was going to crush Mingchuan into a meat patty on the spot!
Mingchuan frowned and held on, not letting the pressure crush him.
Seeing this, Elder Fire Lion found it quite interesting.
"Most people can't bear the pressure I'm putting on them. They'd just kneel down and beg for mercy. I didn't expect you to be so tough. You actually gritted your teeth and stood up."
Mingchuan smiled. "Thank you, Lord Huoshi, for thinking highly of me. But, Lord Huoshi, you haven't even asked me to kneel yet, so why am I kneeling so easily?"
Zhu Wu was furious when he heard this. He pointed his finger at Mingchuan and said, "Cang Ziang, you're facing death and you still dare to be so stubborn? You still have the nerve to ask why?! Of course, it's to apologize to those disciples you've hurt!"
As Zhu Wu spoke, he pointed at the white-robed men behind him.
Several men in white robes now had bruised faces and wounds all over their bodies. The moment Mingchuan glanced at them, they felt a huge sense of oppression and actually lowered their heads abruptly, feeling a little guilty.
Mingchuan sneered: "A bunch of incompetent losers who like to bully the weak. I hit them, so why should I apologize? Have they ever apologized for my brothers and sisters?"
Zhu Wu was so angry: "You...you are simply...!"
He was so angry that he couldn't even finish his words.
What he didn't expect was that at this moment, Elder Fire Lion was watching this scene from the side and chuckled.
"Not bad, you are quite brave."
Under Zhu Wu's shock, he turned his head to look at the white-robed men again, put his hands behind his back and asked, "Tell me, are what Cang Ziang said true or false?"
Zhu Wu nodded repeatedly: "Tell you boldly, my elders and I can both uphold justice for you!"
When the white-robed men heard this, their backs stiffened. Just as they were about to lie, Mingchuan stared at them sinisterly: "Do you dare to swear before you speak?"
"No... isn't it just an oath? What's there to be afraid of?" One of the men in white robes trembled and said.
Mingchuan smiled cunningly: "Alright, then you swear that if you tell a lie, your little brother will be ten centimeters shorter."
Damn it! ! !
What kind of tiger-wolf talk is this? !
Everyone was shocked and looked at Mingchuan with twitching lips.
Mingchuan was smiling and didn't feel embarrassed at all.
Zhu Wu laughed angrily: "Cang Ziang, what nonsense are you talking about? Do you still know who you are? Why are you talking so disgustingly?"
Mingchuan's lips curled up: "I just used this to make them swear, why don't you make them swear? Come on, tell me, why don't you say anything?"
Several men in white robes stared at Mingchuan fiercely. After staring at Mingchuan for a long time, they simply pretended to speak.
"Yes! We beat your brother, but he's still your brother. He stole our things first! Why can't we deal with a thief?"
"Is there any evidence?"
"Evidence... there's no evidence! Anyway, your brother and sister have become habitual petty thieves, and we all know it!"
Seeing these white-robed men deliberately turning the tables and making up stories, Mingchuan's eyes grew darker and darker. He wished he could kill these men on the spot in front of the Fire Lion Lord.
However, given his current status, that was absolutely impossible.
"If there is no evidence, then you are just making up stories and lying!" Mingchuan said in a cold voice.
Guilty looks suddenly appeared on the faces of those men in white robes.
At this time, the Fire Lion Elder sneered repeatedly: "Alright, alright, there's no need to argue anymore. I already understand."
"Zi'ang, this is your fault. Even if your fellow disciples were too harsh and injured their fellow disciples, you should have taken them to the Finger Dharma Hall and let the people in the sect deal with them instead of doing it yourself."
"The sect has its own way of dealing with things, instead of doing something as thoughtless as you, which almost killed them."
"There's no other way. To maintain fairness and justice, I can only deal with you first this time. Zhu Wu, take him away, give him twenty lashes, and then let him go."
Good guy!
Beat him with twenty lashes?
You have to know that the executioners here are all strong men in the middle stage of Jindan, and one whip will make their skin and flesh burst.
If this fight really breaks out, how can Mingchuan still become the light of their sect?
Damn, he complained madly in his heart.
Since the sect leader and Su Hao regard him as the sect's trump card, why don't they come out now to stop them? If they continue, his life will be at stake!
Mingchuan's face darkened. Seeing Zhu Wu about to come forward, he stepped back and avoided Zhu Wu's hand.
"I don't accept it! Why aren't these people punished? Why are they only punishing me?"
Elder Fire Lion seemed to have not expected Mingchuan to struggle in front of him. He raised his eyebrows and turned to look at Mingchuan.
Seeing the sinister look in Mingchuan's eyes, he smiled.
"Young man, it's right for people to have backbone, but this is not how you should use it."
Zhu Wu, relying on the fact that Elder Huoshi was right beside him, became even more arrogant: "If Elder wants to punish you, then punish you. Why are you talking so much nonsense!?"
"Since you are not convinced, I will deal with you first!"
As soon as Zhu Wu finished speaking, a burly man took out a long fire whip from somewhere, and with a flash of the fire whip in his hand, he whipped it towards Mingchuan!
