C76 (1/2)

Elder Jiu Ming's lips curled up in a smile as he slowly replied, ”Elder Yin Yue, since you're talking about fighting, then that means there's someone else besides Ning Luo.”

Ning Luo was slightly startled. So her master knew everything!

Elder Yin Yue hadn't expected Elder Jiu Ming to not deny it, and his words even seemed to acknowledge the fact that Ning Luo had fought before.

Elder Jiu Ming didn't rush over as soon as he heard the news, but as soon as he received Xiao Ting's notification.

Xiao Ting had already told him everything that had happened, so of course he knew that Ning Luo's fight in the library was certain.

Like Ning Luo, Elder Jiu Ming didn't object to the Hall of Enforcement punishing all four of them equally, including Ning Luo. The only exception was that they weren't allowed to punish Ning Luo first.

”Then I would like to ask Elder Yin Yue, how do you plan to punish the other people you are talking about? When will you punish them?”

Elder Yin Yue was afraid of this, but Elder Jiu Ming did not follow common sense and actually went straight to the point.

Ning Luo was a disciple of the Nine Underworlds Sect, so he liked whatever punishment he got.

However, whether it was Bu Tianlong, Guan Bai Hao, or Wu Xiao Kun, they were all Burning Heaven Clan disciples.

The disciples of the Fen Ji Sect could not be punished however they wished; in fact, they could not even be punished for violating the rules.

The previous hall master of the Enforcement Hall had punished a few disciples of the Fen Ji Sect, and very quickly, was removed by the Sect Master for no apparent reason.

Elder Yin Yue was not stupid, he did not want to follow in the footsteps of others.

”Since Elder Yin Yue hasn't been found, we'll just wait until everyone has been gathered before sending Ning Luo here to be punished. The Nine Hell sect will welcome you at any time!”

Elder Jiu Ming didn't waste any more time with Elder Yin Yue. He grabbed Ning Luo and instantly jumped out of the Enforcement Hall. After that, he left.

By the time Elder Yin Yue reacted, it was already too late. She didn't even have the time to shout out before Elder Jiu Ming and Ning Luo had already disappeared from her line of sight.

Ning Luo was also caught off guard. When she came back to her senses, she had already returned to the Nine Underworlds Gate.

”Ning Luo, you're back. Are you alright?”

When Xiao Ting saw Ning Luo stably land on the ground, he hurriedly ran in front of him, and felt a wave of warmth.

It was one thing to ask him, but this guy even planned to do something about it. It seemed like he had to check Ning Luo out before he could be at ease.

”That... ”I'm fine.”

Ning Luo's hair immediately stood on end as she retreated back. She smiled wryly, indicating that he was fine.

”Are you really alright? ”Then I'm relieved.”

Hearing this, Xiao Ting let out a long breath.

The two spoke a few more words before Xiao Ting and Xiao Ding finally said their goodbyes and left the Nine Netherworld Gate.

Elder Jiu Ming looked at Xiao Ting's back and said in a profound tone, ”This little guy is not bad.”

Ning Luo raised his brows. He wasn't too sure about his master's intentions.

However, he didn't care about that. Soon after, he asked about Elder Yin Yue from the Enforcement Hall.

”You guessed it right, Elder Yin Yue is indeed targeting you.”

After a slight pause, Elder Jiu Ming continued.

”Not so much against you as against me and the Gate of Nine Underworld.”

Ning Luo frowned, feeling even more puzzled. He didn't understand why Elder Yin Yue was targeting his master. Could it be that his master had some kind of old grudge with Elder Yin Yue?
