Chapter 1048: 1048

Long Chen stood at the entrance of the ancient city with his hands clasped behind his back . In front of him was a graffitied wall with close to a hundred people stuck on it . They were like large pieces of flatbread made of meat .

“It’s you again, Long Chen!” Lu Minghan appeared in front of the city gates .

“Yes, how coincidental! We meet again so soon . Are you still well?” Long Chen smiled mischievously . He hadn’t expected the first one to come would be Lu Minghan . They really had destiny together .

“b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you attacked the law enforcers! Let’s see how you slip out of your punishment this time!” Lu Minghan smiled coldly . The chains in his hands were already lit up .

“Why would I need to slip out? Has your head rusted? Are you sure these are law enforcers? They’re not wearing their robes or status badges . When they see people, they immediately beat them . When they see valuables, they immediately s.n.a.t.c.h them . I thought I had run into a group of bandits! So what if I want to teach bandits a lesson? That’s called reasonable self-defense . I am wearing outer sect disciple’s robes and my badge . They had no reason to attack me . By wearing these robes, I represent the Xuantian Dao Sect . For them to attack me is to attack the Xuantian Dao Sect . I beat them to protect the Xuantian Dao Sect from attackers, so I’m clearly standing on the side of reason . Why don’t you try and attack me?” sneered Long Chen .

A King had arrived, terrifying everyone here . This was the outer sect, and it was unknown how many years had pa.s.sed since a King had descended upon them . But then they saw Long Chen talking arrogantly to this King, and they all had an urge to prostrate themselves before him .

“What nonsense! Aren’t some of them wearing law enforcer’s robes? When the Xuantian Dao Sect’s law enforcers are enforcing the law, it is not permitted to resist . If they did something wrong, you can rebut the charge afterward . But you clearly knew they were law enforcers doing their work, and you still violently fought back . Even if your tongue can pull off a miracle, you can’t escape your sins!” sneered Lu Minghan . Rather than wasting more words, he moved to directly capture Long Chen . Once he was captured, everything would be easy .

“Hold . ” Suddenly, another figure appeared in the air . It was Li Changfeng .

“Li Changfeng, you can’t stop me from doing my job!” Seeing Li Changfeng instantly infuriated Lu Minghan . He was unable to beat him .

“I have orders from the Elder Hall Master . Both sides are at fault . Long Chen did beat up law enforcers which is admittedly in the wrong, but the law enforcers were also in the wrong,” said Li Changfeng .

“What nonsense, how were the law enforcers in the wrong?!” raged Lu Minghan .

“The first group of people weren’t wearing their law enforcer’s robes . They’re your outer members, and I’m sure there’s no need for me to go into detail about the violations they commit . As for these disciples wearing their robes, they were drinking on duty . Is that the teachings of your Law Enforcement Hall? Before doing shameful deeds, they need to drink wine to strengthen their guts?” said Li Changfeng .

Long Chen was the first to start clapping . That phrase was delightful, drinking wine to strengthen their guts . It was concise and comprehensive with profound, far-reaching meaning . It seemed he needed to work on his own eloquence . Li Changfeng was the true master .

Following Long Chen’s praise, the surrounding people also began to clap . Cheering began to erupt .

The Law Enforcement Hall was disliked everywhere, but it was especially disliked in the outer sect . Their outer members were especially tyrannical, practically acting as bandits to the commoners .

Lu Minghan was ashen with rage . Those law enforcers that were wearing robes were also stuck in the wall, drenched in blood and lard . The smell of alcohol came from them, and there was no way to argue against that fault . He found himself unable to quibble .

“The Elder Hall Master has said that since both sides were at fault, we can each handle our own disciples . Long Chen rashly beat law enforcers, resulting in negative consequences . He is to be stripped of his status as an outer sect disciple and demoted into a worker . But because he is the leader of the Dragonblood Legion, he has to look after his faction’s development . And so he is to keep all his privileges,” said Li Changfeng .

Hearing this, Long Chen was at ease . But Lu Minghan raged, “How is that any different from not punis.h.i.+ng him?!”

There truly was no difference . The only thing was that Long Chen would lose his ten points each month . But did Long Chen really need that?

“If you don’t like it, you can go find your Hall Master . I trust he’ll definitely accept,” said Li Changfeng .

Lu Minghan wanted to say something, but his expression suddenly changed and he unwillingly left .

Once Lu Minghan left, Li Changfeng looked at Long Chen . He was silent for a long while before sighing, “I, Li Changfeng, have not admired many people in my life . Amongst youngsters, you, Long Chen, are the first . ”

“Elder Li overpraises me . If you praise me like this, I’ll get conceited,” said Long Chen ‘humbly’ . He had a good feeling toward the Elder Hall’s people . They were of exemplary character and people truly worthy of respect .

“According to what I know, in the Xuantian Dao Sect’s hundreds of thousands of years of history, there have been countless miracles and countless new records . I remember there was once a worker, who through hard work, managed to be promoted step by step to a core disciple in ten months . That’s already absolutely shocking, but compared to you, he’s still lacking . In less than ten days, you managed to go from a core disciple to a worker,” praised Li Changfeng .

Long Chen was speechless . “Elder Li, why do I feel like you’re not praising me?”
