One had to admit that Li Hong'er was a spicy one. Not many people were as bold as her.
”Hehe, so the daughter of thirteenth elder is allowed to do as she wishes in the Martial Hall Palace?” Xiang Shaoyun sneered.
Many disciples found themselves in agreement with Xiang Shaoyun when they heard those words. They were all disciples who had pa.s.sed an exam to join the palace. They did not have any sort of backer, and if something similar happened to them, would they have to bend over and take it?
Xia Liuhui chimed in, ”Looks like us new disciples have no human rights! Our life and death is only a matter of a single word for some people.”
Without fail, these words ignited the resentment in all the outer court disciples.
”Looks like the so-called rules of the Martial Hall Palace are only there for show. There is no guarantee that regular disciples like us will be safe.”
”That's right. If I somehow find myself on the receiving end of her anger, can I do anything other than accepting my fate?”
”If the Enforcement Hall does not give us an explanation today, we are better off withdrawing from the palace!”
”I have never known that the Martial Hall Palace is such a corrupted place. It's filled with people who abuse their authority to bully others! Hah, today, my eyes have been opened!”
...
”Who do you think you are? If you want to leave the Martial Hall Palace, get going then. Stop babbling on and on!” said Li Hong'er, triggered by their words.
”Oh? You really think the Martial Hall Palace belongs to your family?” Xiang Shaoyun did not miss the chance to fan the flames.
With this, even more outer court disciples criticized Li Hong'er.
”Who are you, then? You have merely been relying on your father, who is an elder!”
”Your father is only an elder, not the palace master!”
”Yeah! We have all joined after pa.s.sing the exam. Do you expect us to leave just because you say so?”
...
So many people were scolding Li Hong'er she nearly cried.
Zi Changhe did not wish to see a further escalation, so he said, ”Alright, you may all leave. I will report this to the Council of Elders. We will handle this appropriately. n.o.body can disregard the rules of the Martial Hall Palace!”
”Yes, n.o.body can disregard the rules of Martial Hall Palace, and the same applies to you, Zi Changhe,” a forceful voice rang out from not far away.
Three figures were quickly heading their way, and the one leading was the thirteenth elder, Li Xuemeng.
”Father!” Li Tianba and Li Hong'er called out in excitement.
Li Xuemeng glanced at his children and found that a palm mark was on his son's face and that his daughter's eyes were all red. He immediately glared at Zi Changhe. ”Zi Changhe, do you not know shame? You actually bullied the children?”
”You are not one to decide if I know shame. Your children were the ones being too arrogant, trying to kill my junior brother in front of so many people. Do you take me for nothing?” Zi Changhe replied as he looked straight into Li Xuemeng's eyes.
”Father, he is the one who bullied me first! He even pushed me into the lake!” Li Hong'er accused.
