Chapter 125 - Enforcing The Rules Forcefully (1/2)

The initially furious crowd of disciples had their faces turn pale at that instant, and they all instinctively took a few steps backward.

They did not expect that, in just a few breaths time, Qin Nan would be exiled from the Mystic Spirit Sect.

At that instant, even if they supported Qin Nan, even if they were angry, they had lost the courage to challenge the vice-leader of the Hall of Discipline!

Gong Yang’s face turned cold as he took a step forward and said, “Vice-Leader Zhao, how can you convict my brother immediately after hearing those words? Do you think it is impossible for a first-layer Xiantian Realm Atavistic Cultivator to defeat someone at the second-layer Xiantian Realm?”

Vice-Leader Zhao was startled; he had not expected Gong Yang to be an outer disciple’s brother, and was willing to voice out and defend him.

On any other occasion, Vice-Leader Zhao would definitely show his respect toward Gong Yang; however, it was not the same case at this instant, as he used to be Cheng Biao’s disciple—hence he would not reject Cheng Biao’s request.

Vice-Leader Zhao did not hesitate as he let out a smile and said, “Junior Brother Gong Yang, this has nothing to do with you. The Hall of Discipline is only enforcing the rules.”

Gong Yang almost burst out laughing after hearing this.

Who among the crowd could not tell that they were purposely picking on Qin Nan?

Gong Yang shook his head. His attitude was not very firm as he said, “If Vice-Leader Zhao will not accept my advice, I won’t be wasting my time. My only piece of advice is that I hope you will not regret doing what you have decided.”

Gong Yang’s words caused the disciples to feel confused.

Vice-Leader Zhao let out a laugh in his heart; he would never regret it as it only involved a mere outer disciple.

Despite that, more trouble began to take place before the previous one was settled.

Xiao Leng and Chu Yun, after hesitating briefly at the start, stepped forward and said with a firm attitude, “If Qin Nan is to be exiled, then exile us too!”

Apart from Xiao Leng and Chu Yun, Huang Long also volunteered by stepping forward.

Surprisingly, even Mo Zishan and Xu You, who were not very close with Qin Nan, chose to step forward with firm expressions on their faces.

The first elder burst out laughing after seeing this, Well, well, well. It seems like you five are all Qin Nan’s accomplices. If that’s the case, I request that Vice-Leader Zhao exile them from the sect too!”

Vice-Leader Zhao did not bother looking at them, as he waved his hand and said, “You five, from today onward, are no longer disciples of the Mystic Spirit Sect…”

In Vice-Leader Zhao’s eyes, exiling five mere outer disciples was nothing significant, which would not bring him any trouble.

The other elders in the elders’ seating area were stunned as if a spell had been cast on them. They did not dare to voice out even if their beloved disciple was among the group of five who had just been exiled.

The crowd of disciples felt their faces burning, so much so that some of them even bowed their heads downward in shame.

However, at that instant, a cold voice could be heard, “Wait!”

The one speaking was none other than Qin Nan.

Qin Nan’s face was filled with iciness, and his eyes emitted flames of anger.

This time he was seriously angry.

He had not expected the first elder to be so shameless and unrighteous, to immediately kick him out of the sect. He even teamed up with the vice-leader of the Hall of Discipline to convict them directly without any investigation.

Qin Nan’s words immediately grabbed everyone’s attention.

Nangong Cheng, who still lay on the ground in a weakened state, burst out laughing and said, “HAHAHA, Qin Nan, what can you say? So what if you defeated me today? From today onward, you’re no longer a disciple of the Mystic Spirit Sect; the first place is still mine!”

Nangong Cheng’s face was filled with disdain.

The first elder too looked down at him coldly, as if he were looking at an ant.

Qin Nan glanced at Nangong Cheng, before his gaze landed onto Vice-Leader Zhao and he said in a harsh tone, “Vice-Leader Zhao, who gave you the right to exile us from the Mystic Spirit Sect before any investigation took place? The trial was entirely manipulated by the first elder, why don’t you terminate his identity as the first elder? Is this how the Hall of Discipline should enforce the rules?”

Upon saying this, Qin Nan emitted his full strength as he questioned, “How could a person like you be the vice leader of the Hall of Discipline?”

The crowd was utterly gobsmacked.

They did not expect Qin Nan to explode at that instant and challenge Vice-Leader Zhao directly.
