Chen Yanxun fainted from the shock and then revived. His injuries were temporarily under control, and his internal organs were all intact.

He had gambled on success and retreat by fainting once, but he didn’t expect to be immediately woken up and have to continue fainting…

But he absolutely couldn’t show his distrust at this moment; he could only force himself to endure. However Xie Rong tormented him, he would endure it.

He was only straining to keep his eyes wide open, not daring to miss a single detail of the changing scene.

He knew the opportunity was in the midst of it.

“The Legalist sect master has a tough temper…”

He heard such a low sigh beside his ear.

He also subconsciously agreed: “Yes, indeed!”

Immediately, he looked over in alarm.

Xie Rong was still sticking needles into his heart! His eyes were fixed on the center of the martial stage, where Wu Yu’s body lay horizontally.

His body was hunched, his calves tense, ready to dart away at any moment, yet his hands didn’t stop. In a moment, the silver needles in his heart bloomed like clustered flowers.

“Did Doctor Xie serve on the battlefield before?” Chen Yanxun asked in a low voice.

“Yes, indeed!” Xie Rong looked ahead vigilantly, not turning his eyes: “After the Ming Kingdom was destroyed by the Qi Kingdom, I returned to East King Valley.”

Chen Yanxun thought for a bit, then still reminded him: “I am a Song Kingdom person…”

Xie Rong stuck another needle down: “Doesn’t matter, it’s all the same.”

Gongsun Bu Hai did not accept the Innocent Heavenly Person’s threat, leaving no room for peaceful negotiation, and directly beat his own direct disciple to death.

In the contemporary Punisher Palace, there was absolutely no second figure comparable to Wu Yu. Gongsun Bu Hai had never shown such appreciation and value to a second student, even equipping him with the Town Palace Sword, even his cultivation path, his travels for study, all were plainly cultivated as the next generation controller of the Punisher Palace — so Dan Tai Wenshu could use this person as a chip on stage.

Thus, the force of this one punch from Gongsun Bu Hai, the decisiveness of this one punch, not only cracked the martial stage but also made people feel an immeasurable, extremely terrifying storm… about to happen.

At this moment, he didn’t resemble the Legalist sect master; he resembled a long-sealed name, like that year’s “Haoyi” Sun Meng!

Law is absolute rules; the chivalrous one draws a sword in anger, blood must be repaid.

“Legalist disciple Wu Yu, arrogant and self-important. Before the competition, he did not know self-restraint, lightly went to seek Cast Plow, thus falling into disaster water, losing his name… giving evil generations exploitable opportunity, disturbing Guanhe Terrace, influencing the Yellow River competition, being negative to the hopes of all beings, and being wrong to the justice of the world!”

He was still half-supported on the ground, his fist virtually raised.

Where Wu Yu’s head should have been on the ground, only a pool of blood remained. It was probably diluted by the disaster water, not sticky. Shallow ripples rippled open in the blood.

Gongsun Bu Hai slowly spoke: “Now I punish and kill him here, to correct public opinion… and to respect the world!”

On the viewing platform, Lou Junlan’s eyes were light like rising cloud vapor, bending his finger to tap his sword.

The Innocent Heavenly Person was just like that, expelled.

Why It came to Guanhe Terrace was unknown. What It could gain by appearing with Wu Yu’s identity, and why It abandoned the champion in the final match, was still not said.

Wu Yu leaped into truth before the competition, he made good plans to contend for the champion. The factors influencing victory and defeat must be outside the field.

Examining all matters, one timeline is clear — before the victory and defeat of the unlimited field appeared, the great war that happened in Sheng Kingdom had just concluded.

The Innocent Heavenly Person ascending the stage with Wu Yu was possibly related to some plan of Rakshasa Mingyue Jing. “Wu Yu” first wanted to contend for the champion, then abandoned the champion, the choices upfront were contradictory, the behavior quite unwise, explaining that Rakshasa Mingyue Jing’s plan probably failed.

It’s effort to defend the path chosen to abandon the champion is possibly a chain reaction after Rakshasa Mingyue Jing’s plan failed.

Rakshasa Mingyue Jing’s attempt to save Bian Qiao was indeed unsuccessful, but it shouldn’t only be so…

What meaning did saving Bian Qiao have? How could it influence Guanhe Terrace!

If we push back from “could influence Guanhe Terrace”… Lou Junlan’s eyes were agile, like fish leaping and flying into the sea — Rakshasa Mingyue Jing’s target was possibly those absolute peaks besieging her!

If Rakshasa Mingyue Jing could kill so many absolute peak powerhouses in Sheng Kingdom, would drastic changes happen on this side of Guanhe Terrace? Wu Yu seizing the champion was just one link among them…

Or perhaps “Wu Yu” was originally intended to be used for sacrifice, which was also the reason for his insincere letting water.

Then, why couldn’t “Wu Yu” be investigated at this time? Why did the Innocent Heavenly Person act immediately, jumping away, just like Chen Yanxun’s hasty dog jump over the wall?

This body is of course precious; the Innocent Heavenly Person has even become stronger and freer after the last Tianhai great war… It is also very difficult to have a human agent with an extremely high upper limit who can temporarily leap to the absolute peak. Wu Yu’s re-entrapment in the disaster water must also involve a complex story behind it.

But a mere precious body, losing it on Guanhe Terrace would not affect the Innocent Heavenly Person’s fundamentals, and It is truly a powerful existence; It should be clear that It cannot run away.

Then, what was It evading?

Let’s think in a different way.

Rakshasa Mingyue Jing and Equal Kingdom certainly have cooperation. The Innocent Heavenly Person’s actions on Guanhe Terrace were influenced by Rakshasa Mingyue Jing.

The direct cooperation with the Innocent Heavenly Person was possibly not Rakshasa Mingyue Jing but the Divine Hero… the Divine Hero who had assisted in the Central Escape Zen experience!

What did the Innocent Heavenly Person want?

It only needed complete freedom.

And the Divine Hero had already proven himself capable of doing so. This was the premise of his cooperation with the Transcender.

So “Wu Yu”‘s evasion was to hide the Innocent Heavenly Person’s plan for complete freedom.

What was that plan?

Lou Junlan lightly tapped his sword sheath… changing the angle.

Rakshasa Mingyue Jing sought transcendence, then what did the Divine Hero seek?

As one of the leaders of Equal Kingdom, he entrusted his ideals to Hold Ksitigarbha, scheming for many years to complete the Central Escape Zen, but finally Hold Ksitigarbha was killed.

With the Divine Hero’s later stubborn performance, he should try to grasp power in his own hands, changing himself to lead everything… he should also be seeking transcendence! At the current time, with the name of “Divine Hero,” it is absolutely impossible to impact transcendence.

Once the “Divine Hero” leaps up, he will see that the entire world is full of path blockers.

So he wanted to use his identity under the sunlight to be able to complete this step…

Lou Junlan instantly exited Zi Fei Yu’s divine ability state, raising his head in astonishment, looking at the martial stage.

Could it be that the Divine Hero is him?

“Wu Yu had sin, but not to the point of death.”

Gongsun Bu Hai’s voice continued to ring on the high platform: “I killed him because the law has no two doors. Once the law is fixed, no one can violate it. Legalism absolutely does not accept threats!”

Punisher Palace is the one of the three Law Palaces that enters the world the deepest. The so-called “carrying thorns and hanging rulers, roping the lawlessness of the world” Legalist disciples are mostly from this palace.

Entering the world to maintain law will inevitably create various conflicts, and the disciples of Punisher Palace are also the strongest in killing force among the various Legalist sects.

Holding punishment requires coldness. As the controller of this Law Palace, Gongsun Bu Hai particularly needs restraint.

He actually usually does not show strength like Wu Bingyi, and rarely shows people with a fierce face.

But today…

He was abnormally fierce.

“I don’t know what matter Dan Tai Wenshu is mixed up in on Guanhe Terrace, but It’s actions and pursuit of results are necessarily harmful to the world.”

“How can a demon of the evil sea manifest in the human world?”

“Killing one to save ten thousand, I am for it. This is Wu Yu’s death.”

He then stood up in the pool of blood before Wu Yu’s corpse, his profound features seeming to sink into shadow: “Gongsun Bu Hai, as a teacher, has the duty to guard and the duty to protect. Now having come to this loss, I have no face towards my students, and it is difficult to bear the Law Sect!”

He looked at Jiang Wang: “Please, Town River True Monarch, grant me a sword, to show that I and Wu Yu bear this responsibility!” With these words, he opened his large sleeve, baring his abdomen —

He actually let Jiang Wang hold punishment!

This was undoubtedly Punisher Palace’s biggest support for the Yellow River competition group.

If even a Legalist giant like Gongsun Bu Hai, because he influenced the fairness of the Yellow River meeting, received the punishment of the Town River True Monarch, then who in the world could avoid it?

Jiang Wang pressed the sword at his waist and slowly said: “You are a sect master of the world, Dan Tai is an Evil Sea Transcender, Wu Yu is a true transmission of Legalism… I am just a referee. I am only responsible for the competition itself.”

“Are you retreating this time?” Gongsun Bu Hai, for some unknown reason, was intensely emotional, actually having a voice of anger from hating iron not becoming steel: “Everyone admits that you are responsible for this Yellow River meeting. You should do what you need to do, without hesitation. Maintain your ideal, unfold your ambition, right at this time. What is all this twisting and turning!?”

“Punisher Palace cannot punish the sinful, I have a grievance in my heart that cannot be voiced.”

“Law cannot stand without blood, and a head is not heavy without awe. Take down my head, and hold up your path. Look from now on, who dares to disrupt Guanhe Terrace. I am willing to be this warning!”

This great sect master of Legalism, like a chivalrous hero in a rage, erupted with anger.

Those with discerning hearts at this time just saw it… his target was probably the Jing Kingdom, that Jing Wen Emperor whose name could not be mentioned.

First, his close friend Gu Shiyi died in the East Sea, now his direct disciple Wu Yu died on the stage.

It cannot be said that everything should be blamed on the Jing Kingdom, but indeed everything was related to the Jing Kingdom.

Even he, the controller of Punisher Palace, could not speak, he could only say… he would take responsibility first!

“This junior does not retreat.” Jiang Wang’s tone was calm: “Long Xiang Si drawing a sword needs a reason, your reason is not my reason.”

The more madness he had in his heart, the more he knew the sword should not be drawn lightly.

The controller of Punisher Palace perhaps indeed had the determination to reform righteousness with his body, to correct the law for the world.

But he was not a disciple of Punisher Palace. He did not want to inherit anyone’s will, nor did he need to step on anyone as a platform.

Gongsun Bu Hai looked at him deeply, confirming his heart’s intent was decided, then turned and left: “Ju Kui! You come!” Ju Kui sighed deeply, stood up and retreated: “Relatives avoid!”

“Under the law, there is no emotion!” Gongsun Bu Hai said severely: “You originate from Rule Heaven Palace, you are not related to me, and now you are even more detached from Heaven Punishment Cliff, sitting in Taixu Pavilion, there is no need to avoid me!”

“Look at this stage, group of demons dancing wildly. All sorts of ox ghosts and snake gods have come out!”

“Each has their own calculations, each has their own greed.”

“You all try your best to do something, wanting to make today better than yesterday — who cares about your feelings?”

“Many years ago, you and I were the same; now, I am still the same as you. In the future, there will still be people who are the same as me.”

“Don’t be like this again!”

He looked at Ju Kui extremely seriously: “You value rules the most, and also cannot tolerate things that destroy rules the most. Many rules of this Yellow River meeting were set by you, you exhausted your mind carving down the ‘way’, and now it is being stepped on under the boot sole! Are you willing?”

“Ju Kui! Now we want to establish one law here, establish an eternal law —”

“The Yellow River prodigies meeting absolutely does not allow any favoritism or malpractice to happen. Violators will be discussed for punishment, either caned or imprisoned, even killed without pardon!”

“I will raise the flag for you!”

He lightly exhaled a breath, closed his eyes: “Then let it begin with me.”

In ancient times, Xue Gui transcended with “no eternal law.”

But “eternal law” is truly a provision for transcendence.

If one can fix an eternal law and push it to eternity, there is truly hope for immortality.

Gongsun Bu Hai was pushing the future of transcendence onto him!

Ju Kui of course knew that Sect Master Gongsun once had great ambitions, wanting to truly execute the original wish of the law, greatly protect the people of the world, regardless of poor or rich, noble or lowly.

His most hoped-for, biggest action was to try to promote “fixed law” throughout the world — for example, the simplest “a life for a life, without avoiding kings and nobles.”

But it fundamentally could not be promoted; it was cut off at the first step. The so-called “balancing world technique, fixed law” was only circled under Heaven Punishment Cliff, embodied in Tianjing Kingdom. Cultivators’ lives were just more precious than ordinary people. Kings’ and nobles’ lives were just heavier than commoners.

The World Honored One said “all beings are equal,” too grand.

So grand that the obstacles and difficulties it faced all seemed unreal, seemed empty and vague, making it hard for people to feel them concretely. They only knew it was difficult, but not how difficult — just as you also don’t know how to begin with this ideal.

But in Gongsun Bu Hai’s case, perhaps one can catch a glimpse.

Gongsun Bu Hai only said one sentence “human lives are equal,” and he was trapped for years, wasting time, always unable to walk out of Heaven Punishment Cliff, finally knowing what it means for an ant to move a mountain!

What “law cannot fix balance” applies to is not only limited to status, lives, power, wealth, and the blue sky ladder.

Even knowledge that relies most on hard study, on research to embody it, has family transmission. The children of great scholars are still great scholars, regardless of whether they read classics or not!

This matter is most typical in Song Kingdom.

Those famous scholars of Shangqiu praised each other, passing down generations. The so-called famous circle, ordinary people could not squeeze in.

Even if one had eight dou of talent, they still had to be commented on by famous scholars to have the opportunity to show their talent.

Just the Chen, Yin, and other surnames, supported by various academies, used the extraordinary as a step to go their own way.

Gongsun Bu Hai had already cleared away the so-called academic cliques within the Law Palace, but this was only limited under Heaven Punishment Cliff. The law of the world is not just the three Punishment Palaces; each country’s law stops within each country.

Law is an empty paper!

This is the sorrow of Legalism.

Legalism did many things, but there were still more things it could not touch.

If there are places the law cannot touch, then it cannot be said that the law has no two doors!

Ju Kui of course could see and understand, see and understand Gongsun Bu Hai’s pain, because he also suffered like this.

All those who study law, all those who are called “stubborn,” probably can empathize. “I do not care about myself being stepped under the boot sole.”

Ju Kui then said: “What I care about is that after the way is cut off, people who should have an outlet cannot find one.”

“I fear people will seize the road and flee, trampling each other to run for their lives. I fear this world will have no rules, and the weak will not be protected. Finally, those who are not strong enough will have no right to live in this world.”

“Can a world that only has the strong be a prosperous world? Can the human race without the weak be a great human race?”

Everyone knows this Yellow River meeting is a great meeting for Jiang Wang to expound his way.

And isn’t what they, these active participants, sending out the declaration voice of the “way”?

At least Gongsun Bu Hai understood his…

“Sect master.” Ju Kui bowed to Gongsun Bu Hai: “I seek my way, I will exhaust my ability.”

“But the core of exhausting my ability is ‘I’, is to do the efforts I can do, not to sacrifice others I can sacrifice.”

“Forgive me, I cannot.”

Gongsun Bu Hai was silent for a while.

After a moment’s silence, he picked up that handle of Jun Sui Wen, lifted his hand, and swung his sword!

An arm flew high, burning into a chain woven of flames in the air. Lightning was faintly seen again, running through the flames.

Legalist Chain Fourth, named Wu Hui Qing Ming.

Punishment becomes thunder fire, colors divide yin and yang, under the correct law, nothing is hidden.

Using this Legalist sect master’s arm, with technique as substance, a true punishment chain that can be passed down was made —

“This arm will never return!”

Gongsun Bu Hai stood on the stage and said: “Then with this arm, I will bear the responsibility of not protecting my direct disciple well, and thus disturbing the Yellow River competition.”

He turned his body, lifted his eyes, held the sword with one arm, and looked towards the high places of the six directional pillars —

“Tigers and rhinoceroses are out of the cage, and the one who guards cannot shirk responsibility! Now Dan Tai Wenshu is acting wildly here, whose fault is it?”

“Who will bear the responsibility?!”

Please:
