The screams that kept coming from the backyard of the Punishment Hall that night made many disciples feel frightened, but at the same time, there were also people who were extremely angry amid the screams.
This person didn't need to guess, there was no one else except Du Yi. In Du Yi's cave, looking at the four direct disciples below, Du Yi cursed angrily.
"Damn it, this Xiao Chen... How dare he do this to Xiao Chen? Do you really want to break up with me? Damn it, damn it."
The counterattack of the Punishment Hall, no, it should be said to be Xiao Chen's counterattack, was so sudden and so overwhelming that by the time Du Yi came to his senses, Zhou Bowen and others had already been captured back to the Punishment Hall.
He was so angry that he almost wanted to rush into the punishment hall to save people. Of course, if Du Yi really forced his way into the punishment hall, the happiest person would naturally be Xiao Chen. Breaking into the punishment hall without permission was definitely a serious crime. Chen Chen had reason to attack Du Yi, but unfortunately, Du Yi finally held back.
He cursed repeatedly, and after hearing this, the four direct disciples he attacked looked at each other, and one of them spoke cautiously.
"Senior Brother Du Yi, for this plan we still need to stay calm. We must not let Xiao Chen catch us. Now that Xiao Chen is abusing lynching, Senior Brother Du Yi should personally go to the punishment hall tomorrow and let Xiao Chen give an explanation."
Of course, forcing his way into the Punishment Hall is not an option, but Du Yi must go to the Punishment Hall to lie down tomorrow no matter what. Moreover, Xiao Chen is now abusing lynching, which just gives Du Yi a chance.
After hearing the words of his direct disciple, Du Yi gradually calmed down, with a chill flashing in his eyes and said, "You're right, I will make sure that you, Xiao Chen, are on the verge of death tomorrow. I'll see what else he can do this time." .”
There was a speechless night. For most of the Firsts in the First Holy Palace, this night was obviously a sleepless night. As the eyes of the morning fell on the earth, Xiao Chen also walked out of the study.
Xiao Chen did not practice that night. Instead, he revised the punishments in the Penalty Hall overnight and deleted all of Du Yi's bullshit. From now on, the Penalty Hall can execute the new punishments.
After washing up, Xiao Chen took Mr. Hei and Mr. Bai to the Punishment Hall. When Xiao Chen arrived, Meng Chen, Lu Yuan, and other Punishment Hall disciples had already arrived and saluted Xiao Chen respectfully. In response, Xiao Chen also smiled and nodded.
All the way to the main hall, Xiao Chen looked at the disciple who was responsible for guarding last night and asked, "How is it? Nothing happened last night, right?"
"Master, everything was normal last night." Facing Xiao Chen's inquiry, a disciple replied respectfully.
He nodded with satisfaction. After last night, he thought that people like Zhou Bowen should be a lot more honest. It would obviously be much easier to interrogate them now, and this was exactly Xiao Chen's purpose.
Otherwise, if the interrogation had started last night, given the nature of these guys, they would naturally not admit anything. Let them suffer first, and everything would be much easier.
They were preparing to interrogate Zhou Bowen and others, but at this moment, Du Yi walked into the punishment hall angrily.
He strode through the front yard and came to the main hall. He looked at Xiao Chen on the front seat with a fierce look on his face. Du Yi didn't take any detours and shouted angrily.
"Xiao Chen, you are so audacious. Do you really think that you alone have the final say in this First Holy Palace? Not only do you arrest people indiscriminately, openly commit murders, and even abuse lynchings, I will definitely report this to His Majesty the Holy Son, so that you can Give an explanation to all the disciples in the First Holy Palace."
As soon as he opened his mouth, he gave Xiao Chen a big hat. Hearing this, Xiao Chen replied without changing his expression, "What do you think of this, Senior Brother Du Yi? As the leader of the Punishment Hall, I am in charge of all punishments in this First Holy Palace." , if someone violates the palace rules, our punishment hall will naturally take action, why do you arrest people randomly and openly commit murder?"
Xiao Chen was not surprised by Du Yi's arrival, because he had already guessed it. With so many of Du Yi's people arrested, it would be strange if he didn't come.
It can be said that this is the first head-to-head confrontation between Xiao Chen and Du Yi. Facing Du Yi, Xiao Chen is not to be outdone at all, but the other punishment hall disciples seem a little nervous. After all, Du Yi has already accumulated prestige in the First Holy Palace. It has been a long time, and he is the quasi-holy son, so they naturally dare not offend him.
Seeing that Xiao Chen's expression remained unchanged and calm, Du Yi's anger became even more intense, and he immediately shouted in a deep voice.
"Xiao Chen, don't make excuses. All the disciples of the First Holy Palace saw what happened yesterday with their own eyes. You allowed the Punishment Hall to arrest people indiscriminately and committed crimes openly. This is a fact. Don't even think about denying it."
Du Yi wanted to make a fuss about what happened yesterday so that he could depose Xiao Chen as the leader of the Punishment Hall. Xiao Chen said calmly about this.
"Du Yi, you are really ridiculous. Okay, you said that I arrested people indiscriminately and committed crimes openly. Then today, I will publicly try Zhou Bowen and others in front of all the disciples of the First Holy Palace. If they indeed violated If you follow the palace rules, then I, the Punishment Hall, will act in accordance with the rules and there will be no fault."
Xiao Chen had already thought of a way to deal with Du Yi. Xiao Chen said in a hurry. Without waiting for Du Yi's reply, Xiao Chen directly asked the disciples of the Punishment Hall to open the courtyard door and summon all the disciples from the First Holy Palace to come. Witness the trial of Zhou Bowen and others.
Xiao Chen wanted to put Zhou Bowen and others on trial. This news quickly spread throughout the First Holy Palace. In just one stick of incense, thousands of First Holy Palace members gathered outside the main hall of the Punishment Hall. disciple.
There was a crowd of people, and all the disciples were looking forward to it, looking at Xiao Chen in the main hall and Du Yi sitting under Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen did everything right, and Du Yi had no choice but to sit down in the main hall and accompany Xiao Chen to interrogate Zhou Bowen and others.
However, although Xiao Chen seemed to have the upper hand, Du Yi couldn't help but sneered in his heart at this time, "Oh, Xiao Chen, you think too simply. If you can find out anything today, I will Du Yi will take your surname."
Zhou Bowen and others are all Du Yi's people, how could they plead guilty so easily? Moreover, Du Yi's personal presence today undoubtedly gave Zhou Bowen and others confidence. In this way, Xiao Chen wanted to let Zhou Bowen and others confessed, which is simply wishful thinking.
Just when Du Yi was sneering in his heart, Chen Yu suddenly appeared in the main hall of the Punishment Hall. With Chen Yu's appearance, many disciples around him saluted, to which Chen Yu smiled indifferently.
"I heard that Junior Brother Xiao Chen is going to have a public trial of Zhou Bowen and others. It just so happens that I will come to observe. What do you think? Junior Brother Xiao Chen won't refuse, right?"
"Senior brother, please take a seat." After hearing Cheng Yu's words, Xiao Chen replied with a smile, and at the same time personally invited Chen Yu to take a seat.
