Suddenly, someone stood up in the Enforcement Hall.
“I’ve just received the secret transmission that both murders here were committed by one person.”
“Who?” questioned Xiao Ruochen coldly.
He lifted his head in the direction of Jiang Yuan, pointing at him, “Him, an outer sect disciple, Jiang Yuan.”
Xiao Ruochen glanced at Jiang Yuan, then pointed at a spectator in the crowd and said, “You, come out and tell me what you saw! Remember, there should be no subjective conjecture.”
“Yes, Senior Brother Xiao!”
The man replied respectfully.
Then he recounted what he had just witnessed.
Xiao Ruochen nodded at his words and then asked him to step back.
Then he pointed at another person, saying, “You come out too and tell me what you saw! Remember, no subjective conjecture is allowed.”
That person also respectfully replied, “Yes, Senior Brother Xiao.”
He pointed out a few people and listened to their accounts.
Afterwards, he slowly nodded and shook his head, “Breakthrough at critical moment! He was a genius, a real loss!”
He swept his gaze at the disciples of the Punishment Hall next to him, and said slowly, “But, I don’t believe what they say!”
“Senior Brother Xiao, what do you mean?” someone from the Enforcement Team questioned in confusion.
Xiao Ruochen didn’t say anything.
Then he took out a seemingly unremarkable ancient mirror from his chest.
“I want to use the power of the ancient divine weapon to playback what happened here. I only trust my own eyes!”
As his words fell, he gently bit his tongue.
And a drop of coagulated blood fell from the tip of his tongue.
In an instant, it dripped into the ancient mirror.
Liu Jie, witnessing this scene, was greatly surprised, “Senior Brother Xiao is even willing to sacrifice a drop of his precious blood to activate the ancient divine weapon, why has this matter suddenly become so important to him?” After saying this, he glanced at Jiang Yuan, a hint of confusion crossing his face.
“Senior Brother Liu, what is a divine weapon?”
Jiang Yuan asked, equally puzzled.
Liu Jie slowly explained, “A divine ancient weapon refers to a weapon left from a bygone era long erased from history, hence the prefix ‘ancient’.”
“Each one that has survived to this day has a great origin. Unfortunately, due to different cultivation systems, we don’t have the method to harness and activate them. Only a scant few ancient divine weapons can be reluctantly activated with a drop of blood essence.”
Jiang Yuan’s eyes narrowed, catching the critical point in his words, remarking somewhat unexpectedly.
“Era? Was there another era before our own?”
Liu Jie nodded, “Of course, you probably haven’t read the ancient texts about this!”
“Before our era, there were several eras, each with different modes of cultivation!”
“According to some remaining records, there once was an era of the gods. Some gods were born from the power of belief, while others were born as gods, and imported rule.”
“There was also a path of Dao Masters, who held supreme authority over the Great Dao.”
“And there was the Path of Cultivating Immortals, who ate the wind and drank dew, breathed clouds and exhaled fog, their lives were near eternal.”
“Some eras didn’t even have humans as the main characters. In any case, each possessed variations compared to our era. The ancient divine weapons are the products of those eras. Most of these divine weapons are missing crucial methods, making them unusable for us.”
“However, the ancient mirror in Xiao Ruochen’s hand is different. By sacrificing a drop of his essence blood, he can briefly unleash part of its power, which can playback what had taken place in a certain area!”
“What I didn’t expect was that he would go as far as to waste a drop of his precious blood just to review the events involving you today by activating this ancient divine weapon.”
At this moment, Liu Jie was filled with astonishment.
On the other side.
Under Xiao Ruochen’s activation,
A divine light shot out from the ancient mirror, illuminating the area where Jiang Yuan had just been fighting.
The scene was recursively changing.
After a long while, it abruptly paused.
Then, everyone revisited the events that had just occurred.
Right at the moment Zhou You rushed over and embraced Zhou He.
The image paused, then played back their encounter extremely slowly.
After watching, Xiao Ruochen’s eyes grew chilly.
Then, he continued to deploy the divine weapon, watching the subsequent developments.
After a long while, he took a deep breath.
Withdrew the ancient mirror in his hand.
Xiao Ruochen lightly said, “Sun Cheng, you were also involved in this matter, weren’t you?”
As his words fell, an astonishing aura burst forth from him.
The black-robed Sun Cheng holding a sword beside him immediately knelt down with a ‘plop’.
The crowd watching this was a little confused.
Didn’t the Enforcement Hall come to capture Jiang Yuan?
Why had there been such a sudden change of events!
At this time, Sun Cheng’s face turned deathly white.
Xiao Ruochen continued, “Do you know why I used a drop of my essence blood to deploy the ancient divine weapon?”
“It’s because someone from the Enforcement Hall was conspiring with others, jointly plotting against one of our Supreme Mystery Sect’s prodigies!”
As soon as his words fell, his eyes turned cold again, a powerful suppression fell onto Sun Cheng.
His bones were creaking, his face was filled with pain.
Xiao Ruochen continued to say, “Zhou You killed his own younger brother just so he could have a legitimate reason to kill Jiang Yuan. My guess is not wrong, “You guided me to hastily understand her case and capture Jiang Yuan.”
“Who is the one pulling the strings behind you? Speak now, and I shall lighten your punishment.”
The pressure on Sun Cheng suddenly decreased.
He shook his head, “I have nothing to say.”
“I see! ” Xiao Ruochen nodded, seeing Sun Cheng’s reaction, he knew there was no need to further delve into the matter.
After that, he declared, “As a member of the Enforcement Hall, sabotaging the sect’s members is a crime. I sentence you to thirty years of penitence in the Ice
Cave!”
As soon as his words fell, Sun Cheng’s face instantly turned pale.
His eyes were filled with fear.
Yet, he still kept his lips sealed.
Xiao Ruochen addressed the rest of the group, “As members of the Enforcement Hall, if you cannot uphold the rules of the sect and behave recklessly relying on your status, I will not show mercy!”
“The Enforcement Hall is the sword of the Supreme Mystery Sect, a sword to eliminate the rotten within the sect! Not a sword aimed at our own members! You must understand this.”
“If the foundation of the Enforcement Hall is corrupted, then the root of our
Supreme Mystery Sect will also be corroded, it won’t be long before the Supreme Mystery Sect will perish by our own hands!”
He glanced again at Jiang Yuan.
“You, you’re doing great! I look forward to the day we compete on the same stage.”
“Disband!”
As his words fell,
The Enforcement Hall members, who had hastily gathered, withdrew like a gust of wind!
Leaving behind a crowd of stunned people.
The elder in the sky looked at this scene.
There was a sense of gratification in his eyes.
It seems like our leader has a good eye!
Entrusting Xiao Ruochen, whose abilities are still somewhat lacking, to oversee the Punishment Hall was a good choice. With him safeguarding the
Enforcement Hall, there should be no significant breaches in the sect’s laws!
As he said, the laws of the sect are the cornerstone of the sect’s development and growth.
If the cornerstone is not solid, the most prosperous sect will eventually collapse.
I thought I would need to intervene, but it seems that is not necessary any longer!
I need to have a word with our leader. After Xiao Ruochen reports this, the leader will undoubtedly know about Jiang Yuan’s talents.
But before that, I should go to see him first.
The next moment,
A familiar old voice rang in Jiang Yuan’s ears again.
“I’ll be waiting for you in your courtyard!”
