Li Chengfeng was silent for a while. In this suffocating and depressing atmosphere, he bowed slightly and said in a hoarse voice: "Disciple... I have nothing to say!"
There was a slight sigh from everyone in the field, some were regretful, some were regretful, and some were grateful.
Kong Yunzhen shouted: "This case is over!" He turned to Qian Shanxue and said: "Qian Shanxue, if you can't wipe out the Xuansheng Sect, you don't have to come back to the Lingshan Sect!"
Qian Shanxue laughed loudly: "If we can't clear this little Xuanshengmen, I will commit suicide on the spot!"
No one doubted that Qianshan Xue would be unable to defeat a small Xuanshengmen, and he also had the help of the entire Hidden Brocade Pavilion.
Kong Yunzhen turned around at this time and said solemnly to Li Chengfeng: "Now that the Tong'an case has been judged! Now let's talk about Li Chengfeng's fault!"
Everyone in the Hidden Sword Pavilion suddenly became excited again, but Li Chengfeng seemed to have expected it, and he remained motionless and silent.
Kong Yunzhen said sternly: "You rashly rang the Wentian Bell and disturbed the leader Qingxiu. This is the first crime! You have no respect for your elders and roared at the court. This is the second crime! You are guilty of attacking the elders. This is the third crime! Three of these! Any crime is enough to condemn you to death!"
Qian Shanxue's face was full of excitement: "Yes, if all Lingshan Sect disciples are like him, what will happen if things continue like this!"
The audience was in an uproar again, and there was a lot of discussion.
Kong Yunzhen shook his staff hard to suppress the voice. He glared at Qian Shanxue and shouted: "Qian Shanxue, you are a guilty person at this time, so don't be so arrogant! If you can't return with meritorious service, you will be punished with a serious crime!"
Qian Shanxue lowered his head and took a step back, showing fear, but he lowered his head and smiled, full of contempt.
Kong Yunzhen said to Li Chengfeng again: "Although I originally wanted to punish you with death, because you are redressing the grievances of the people of Tong'an and standing up for justice, the crime will be reduced by three points! I will punish you by abolishing your cultivation and expelling you from the Lingshan Sect!"
Li Chengfeng's heart was shocked. He raised his head suddenly and said in a voiceless voice: "Uncle!"
Su You, Tian Jun and others from Hidden Sword Pavilion said in unison: "Uncle Kong, please be merciful!"
The senior brother also stood up at this time and said loudly: "Senior Brother Kong, I am thinking of Junior Brother Chengfeng. He is dedicated to serving the people, so be merciful!"
Kong Yunzhen glanced at Li Chengfeng coldly and said nothing. At this time, a harsh voice sounded next to him, but Zhan Qisheng suddenly said quietly: "Yes, but there is no Lingshan Sect in my heart!"
This sentence was extremely vicious. Kong Yunzhen looked at Li Chengfeng with more and more disgust. He snorted angrily and was about to speak when he suddenly heard the senior sister say: "Uncle Kong, if Li Chengfeng is expelled, I'm afraid that if things spread in the future, it will be detrimental to the reputation of our Lingshan Sect! Why not change the punishment so that we can avoid past mistakes and restore our reputation at the same time? Wouldn't it be better to get the best of both worlds?"
Kong Yunzhen glanced at her coldly and said, "What punishment?"
The senior sister glanced at Li Chengfeng and said calmly: "How about punishing him with a severe whipping?"
Kong Yunzhen pondered, feeling quite moved in his heart. After all, he didn't want to be stigmatized because of this.
Qian Shanxue couldn't help but jump up and said: "The following offender has no respect for his superiors, and he is only punished with a mere flogging? How will he convince the public in the future?"
The senior sister looked sideways at Qianshanxue and said, "Then you killed people all over the house and harmed people all over the city. Even if you deserve to be punished and have meritorious service, how should you be punished?"
Qian Shanxue was furious, but did not dare to say anything more.
Kong Yunzhen thought for a while and said to Zhao Feiyue, who had been silent all this time: "What do you think, Your Highness?"
Zhao Feiyue glanced at Li Chengfeng and said, "I am an outsider, so it is not appropriate for me to interfere."
Kong Yunzhen said: "Why did your Highness say this! Your Highness is both a disciple of the head of the sect and a witness in the case, so how can you be considered an outsider?"
Zhao Feiyue said: "Since this is the precepts hall, then the two words "precepts", one is precepts, and the other is discipline. Precepts should be precepts that are taken as precepts, and discipline should be stricter than self-discipline. So since they are precepts that are taken as precepts , Strict self-discipline, then the purpose of establishing the Discipline Hall in the first place was to treat illnesses and save people, not to intimidate and coerce!"
Kong Yunzhen nodded and said: "I already understand what His Highness means." He turned to look at Li Chengfeng with a stern look and said: "Li Chengfeng, are you willing to have your magic power revoked and be expelled from the school, or are you willing to be fined fifty whip!"
"What? Fifty lashes?" Su You and others shouted in shock and anger.
Tianjun was also very excited: "Don't say fifty lashes, how can anyone hold up even if it's ten lashes!"
Even Senior Sister and Zhao Feiyue looked at Kong Yunzhen in shock.
This old thing can't be said to be inexhaustible now!
If Li Chengfeng chooses the former, Kong Yunzhen will get his wish and drive this thorn in his side out of Lingshan to intimidate other Lingshan sect disciples. Otherwise, if they all follow Li Chengfeng's example, wouldn't it be chaos in the world
If Li Chengfeng had chosen the latter, even if he had not been beaten to death, it would have greatly intimidated the other disciples and made Kong Yunzhen feel bad.
Therefore, Kong Yunzhen's attitude was extremely tough and his eyes were extremely sharp and firm.
Li Chengfeng had been prepared for this. He knew that if he stepped forward, he would be challenging a huge and corrupt interest group, and he would definitely encounter an extremely terrifying counterattack!
Fifty lashes, Li Chengfeng didn't know how many lashes he could take, but he knew... this was the best ending.
Li Chengfeng took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Disciple, I am willing to be whipped and punished!"
Su You said angrily: "Junior Brother Chengfeng, no! You will be beaten to death!"
Li Chengfeng turned around, smiled at them, and then said to the ghost travelers coming from both sides: "Excuse me, where do you want me to go?"
One of the ghost travelers obviously admired Li Chengfeng. He did not hold Li Chengfeng hostage, but gestured with his hand to let Li Chengfeng stand on the stone pillar platform not far away.
There were two iron rings hanging on the top of the stone pillar platform. Li Chengfeng stood on it, and then there was a rumbling sound under the stone pillar. The two iron rings slowly fell down and turned into two iron chains hanging the iron rings.
Li Chengfeng understood immediately and stepped forward and stretched out his hand. One of the Youxians stepped forward and pulled off Li Chengfeng's shirt, exposing his chest and back. Then he put his hands through the two iron rings on the left and right, and pulled Li Chengfeng's shirt off. He hung up.
Everyone saw Li Chengfeng being hung about two meters above the ground, and then a ghost traveler shook his hand, and a long whip with blue sparks came out of his sleeve.
Everyone in the crowd looked at Li Chengfeng with different eyes. Qianshanxue, Zhan Qisheng could only wish to whip Li Chengfeng to death, and there was also a person in the Zangxiu Pavilion, whose eyes were burning with excitement, and he wished he could go up and hold the whip himself. Li Chengfeng was beaten to death, and this person was none other than Huang Nishang.
Next to her, Axiu whispered to Senior Sister: "Senior Sister, how many whippings do you think he can get?"
The senior sister frowned. Of course she knew that Li Chengfeng could not receive fifty lashes: "Maybe... ten lashes at most."
Ah Xiu said: "Let me tell you, if he can be whipped at most five times, he won't be able to hold on anymore!"
At this time, she heard a voice from behind: "No, if you want to get fifty lashes, you must get fifty lashes!"
Axiu turned around in surprise, only to see the veiled Huang Nishang clenching her fists and looking excited. She rolled her eyes helplessly.
Xiao Lingdang and Liu Sumei stepped aside at this time, and Xiao Lingdang whispered: "Senior sister, don't you... say a word for him?"
Liu Sumei shook her head and whispered: "It will be counterproductive to speak out at this time!"
While they were talking, they heard two ghost walkers wielding their whips. There was a snap sound. The moment the whip hit Li Chengfeng, at the same time, there was a rumble from the sky and a bolt of thunder struck the stone pillar. The lightning flashed around and then surged out. Entered Li Chengfeng's body.
At this moment, Li Chengfeng felt that all the pores in his body were about to explode, and a severe pain he had never tasted tore every inch of his skin!
At this moment, Li Chengfeng almost fainted!
Everyone saw a gash on Li Chengfeng's back as soon as he stepped out, and lightning flashed wildly inside the flesh and blood. Li Chengfeng's whole body was tense, and his body was like a stretched bow, and it seemed that it would break in the next second. !
Li Chengfeng could not see anything or hear any sound at this time. His eyes were completely dark, and his ears seemed to be filled with countless thunderbolts. After a while, he could vaguely hear the hoarse high voice of a ghost traveler. Counting loudly: "One!"
Immediately afterwards, there was another whip!
There was a loud rumble of thunder, and Li Chengfeng's body tensed up again, and he couldn't help but let out a muffled groan.
Qian Shanxue laughed wildly and said: "If you want to shout, just shout it loudly, let everyone listen, and let them all remember this voice!"
Li Chengfeng raised his eyes at this moment, his eyelashes were trembling, and a trace of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth. He glanced at Qian Shanxue, his eyes were extremely contemptuous, and then he smiled in a low voice at the whip-wielding ghost traveler. He smiled and said, "Try a little harder. These two blows to you are not as painful as those from my mother!"
When everyone heard this, they all gasped!
Zhao Xiaobao burst into tears and whispered: "Yes, young master, you said: if you are beaten, you must not shout to them! Although the Li family is poor, they have some strong bones!"
