Chapter 471: Hua Sen’s Stand (2/2)
Silence filled the hall and everyone stared at the enraged Hua Sen. After a moment, the Sect Patriarch finally asked, ”Wenshu went crazy… are you following in his footsteps?”
Hua Sen was struck silly by the heartless response. He didn't think that everyone would actually look down on his most respected senior. From the start, they had treated him as a lunatic ready to be forsaken for the sect’s gains.
Feeling the sorrow in his heart, Hua Sen’s personality changed. ”Crazy? What rights do you have to say that we have gone crazy?! You turned senior into bait to destroy the Thousand Brilliance Temple, but promised him to spare Bai Luochu’s life. What happened to her?! You killed her anyway!”
In the end, it was Lu Wenshu's master who personally killed Bai Luochu without the slightest bit of hesitation, breaking his promise to Lu Wenshu. From that moment on, Lu Wenshu turned his back on the sect and turned into the lunatic they were talking about.
”For the sake of the sect, he lost the person he loved, carried infamy, only for you to look down on him. Who are you to criticize him?!”
Hua Sen truly felt sorry for Lu Wenshu. He knew that he was offending the entire sect by doing so, but he no longer cared about his future. He no longer wanted to be the coward who listened to everything the sect said. He didn’t care if he was expelled from the sect or imprisoned for speaking his mind. The only thing he cared about was not becoming like Lu Wenshu, forsaken by the sect after giving his all for them.
Everyone’s eyes landed on him as he raged on.
A long moment later, they realized that Hua Sen was simply venting the grievance in his heart and the commandment hall’s elder laid down the order. ”Hua Sen, I originally thought you are a person who will achieve great things in the future. I never expected for you to be as disappointing as your senior. It seems like you have lost your way, just like your senior. You shall go to the Reflection Cliff to think things through thoroughly. Once you realize your mistake, we shall allow you to return to the sect.”
Hua Sen felt the presence of the disciples of the commandment hall and he was immediately taken into custody.
He had already expected everything that would happen as he was clear about the way the elders dealt with things. They would simply suppress and punish any disciples who didn't listen to their orders. After the punishment, disciples would no longer dare to go against the elders...
As for the other disciples, some felt sorry for Hua Sen who had been sent to the Reflection Cliff right after he had returned from the Desolate Region. Some were rejoicing in Hua Sen's misfortunate. After all, in the eyes of some disciples, Hua Sen was simply a dog that was nurtured by Lu Wenshu.
No one understood the true meaning behind Lu Wenshu’s treatment of Hua Sen. Despite Lu Wenshu threatening to kill him, Hua Sen remained by Lu Wenshu’s side till the very end. He knew that he was the same person as Lu Wenshu, just luckier.
If someone was to ask Hua Sen if he regretted saying all those words in front of the elders, Hua Sen would definitely reply, ”No.”
