A middle-aged man in a long robe slowly entered the room.
Several enforcement officers from the Hall of Enforcement accompanied him.
Jiang Li immediately activated the Life Script System.
The Life Script information of the middle-aged man appeared in Jiang Li's mind.
[Name]: Shen Xiangyun
[Realm]: Divine Sea Realm, Triple Heaven
[Physique]: Wood Spirit Physique.
[Destiny]: Exceptionally Talented (Yellow), Minor Accomplishment (Green), Ill-Fated (Gray)
[Life Script]: A supporting character in "The Undying Demonic Venerable," an elder of the Yellow Springs Demonic Sect's Hall of Enforcement. Diligent and dedicated, he spent his life contributing to the sect and was seen as a great demon king by many disciples. He chose the wrong side in the conflict between the Holy Son and Holy Daughter, eventually having his cultivation crippled and languishing in the Yellow Springs Demonic Sect...
[Affection]: -10
[Recent Turning Point]: None.
This guy has some substance, a Wood Spirit Physique, and is a powerful expert at the Triple Heaven of the Divine Sea Realm. What a pity, he made the wrong choice.
Jiang Li lamented inwardly...
Chen Zhuo was overjoyed to see Shen Xiangyun arrive. As a supporter of the Holy Son, he knew this elder leaned towards the Holy Son's faction.
It seemed the Holy Son had indeed made a move, directly finding an elder to help him.
Chen Zhuo looked at Jiang Li with icy eyes.
The referee is on my side, let's see how you play. You didn't seize the opportunity I gave you earlier...
"Reporting to Elder Shen, it's like this. We came to have a friendly exchange with the newly joined junior brother, but unexpectedly, during the exchange, this junior brother suddenly attacked and killed all my fellow disciples. I hope Elder will bring justice for me!" Chen Zhuo continued, speaking with feigned tears.
As soon as Chen Zhuo finished speaking, all the pressure in the room seemed to shift onto Jiang Li.
Jiang Li took a deep breath and said calmly, "They made the first move. I was merely forced to retaliate in self-defense. I believe Elder will make a fair judgment!"
Shen Xiangyun remained silent, his gaze chillingly fixed on the two of them.
The enforcement officers had already informed Shen Xiangyun of the entire incident.
Shen Xiangyun knew that Chen Zhuo was a subordinate of the Holy Son, but Jiang Li's background was not simple either.
He was someone the Holy Daughter had specifically requested protection for.
Seeing Shen Xiangyun's apparent hesitation, Chen Zhuo felt a pang of anxiety. What was wrong with this elder? Did he not want to help the Holy Son anymore?
Shen Xiangyun narrowed his eyes slightly. The enforcement officers beside him also remained silent, seemingly awaiting something.
If they didn't help the Holy Son this time, it would likely deal a significant blow to his prestige.
After all, Chen Zhuo had been sent by the Holy Son to deal with Jiang Li.
If Chen Zhuo suffered a great loss here, the Holy Daughter would certainly not miss the opportunity to attack the Holy Son's authority.
Enough, enough. Since I chose to follow the Holy Son, I should not falter...
"Guards, Jiang Li deliberately killed fellow disciples. Restrain him immediately and prepare him for sect punishment!" Shen Xiangyun slowly opened his eyes and said coldly.
Upon hearing Shen Xiangyun's words, Chen Zhuo's face lit up with ecstatic joy. Little brat, you think you're worthy of competing with me?
Jiang Li took a deep breath and said calmly, "Elder Shen has made a conclusion without proper investigation? I advise Elder Shen to reconsider!"
Jiang Li's words caused everyone in the room to change their expressions.
What did this Jiang Li mean? He, a mere inner disciple, dared to threaten an elder of the Hall of Enforcement. Was he tired of living?
Chen Zhuo looked at Jiang Li as if he were already dead. Originally, Jiang Li had the Holy Daughter's protection and would only suffer minor consequences at most. But now, by confronting an elder of the Hall of Enforcement and dictating how the elder should act, he was truly courting death.
"Young man, you seem to have misunderstood the current situation!" Shen Xiangyun's expression was devoid of emotion as he looked at Jiang Li.
Jiang Li smiled. No wonder this Shen Xiangyun would meet an ill-fated end.
"Shen Xiangyun, trying to make a move against someone under the Holy Daughter's protection. Are you getting old? Suffering from senile dementia?" Just then, a clear, cold voice suddenly rang out.
As the voice echoed, everyone in the room looked extremely displeased.
Especially Shen Xiangyun, his face turned ashen. Who had dared to speak to him like this in years?
A voluptuous middle-aged beauty in a green palace dress pushed open the door and entered.
[Name]: Liu Shuang
[Realm]: Divine Sea Realm, Fourth Heaven
[Physique]: Ice Spirit Physique.
[Destiny]: Excellent Talent (Green), Minor Accomplishment (Green), Lord of a Region (Green).
[Life Script]: A supporting character in "The Undying Demonic Venerable," an elder of the Holy Daughter Peak of the Yellow Springs Demonic Sect, a strong supporter of the Yellow Springs Demonic Sect's Holy Daughter...
[Affection]: 5
[Recent Turning Point]: None.
She was actually an expert at the Fourth Heaven of the Divine Sea Realm. No wonder she was so arrogant.
Jiang Li had just received a telepathic message from Liu Shuang, telling him not to worry. This was the reason Jiang Li had been so self-assured.
Seeing Liu Shuang suddenly appear, Chen Zhuo's face contorted as if he had eaten shit. How could this be? The Holy Daughter had sent an elder herself to protect Jiang Li.
What kind of rotten luck had Jiang Li stumbled upon to be so highly regarded by the Holy Daughter?
"Elder Liu, this is a matter for our Hall of Enforcement. It is not for Elder Liu to interfere!" Shen Xiangyun said coldly, his face grim.
Shen Xiangyun hadn't expected the Holy Daughter to send her own elder to intervene in this matter.
Furthermore, this woman's strength surpassed his own.
"I merely hope Elder Shen will act justly and not violate the sect's rules!" Liu Shuang stared directly at Shen Xiangyun, a slight curve forming at the corner of her lips.
An extremely powerful aura seemed to emanate from Liu Shuang, making everyone's breathing become labored.
Chen Zhuo, standing beside her, trembled uncontrollably, almost freezing into an ice block.
Jiang Li, however, felt nothing, as if Liu Shuang's aura had completely bypassed him.
This Elder Liu's strength was truly formidable. She single-handedly suppressed them all, leaving them afraid to even breathe.
Looking at the scene before him, Jiang Li's eyes were filled with excitement. This was true power.
Compared to them, his Qi Condensation seventh-level cultivation was still far too inferior.
"I will investigate thoroughly. Elder Liu, please return. Do not impede the work of the Hall of Enforcement!" Shen Xiangyun gritted his teeth. This Liu Shuang was simply too much. If not for her superior strength, Shen Xiangyun would have already kicked her out.
"I told you to handle it impartially, are you deaf!" Liu Shuang unleashed an even more powerful aura.
Shen Xiangyun's face turned pale, his body trembling incessantly.
The others were even worse. Chen Zhuo, in particular, could barely breathe, as if he were about to lose consciousness at any moment.
"Chen Zhuo provoked first and sought trouble. Jiang Li is not at fault and is free to leave at any time!" Shen Xiangyun, beads of sweat on his forehead, spoke next.
