"Disciple doesn't dare. Disciple is guilty."
Qiu Zhenghe was the fastest to admit his mistake, before Mu Chenxue and Zhu Xingxiu could say anything. He had already knelt on the ground with a thud.
When Shen Tuxuan saw this, his heart suddenly tightened.
My dear mother, even Mr. Seven fell to her knees. Could this be punishment? no. Kneel down quickly and admit your mistake.
Plop!
Shen Tuxuan also knelt on the ground.
"Shen Tuxuan doesn't dare. Shen Tuxuan is guilty. Please punish him."
Zhu Xingxiu and Mu Chenxue looked at Shen Tuxuan in confusion.
When Ling Tian saw this, he almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
"You guys, get up. It's okay if we just discuss some accumulated matters." Ling Tian said coldly.
"Thank you, Master!"
"Thank you, Master!"
Although Shen Tuxuan stood up after Qiu Zhenghe, he looked confused.
What the hell is going on with your mother? Why did only Mr. Seven kneel down to apologize? Mr. Eighth and Junior Sister Ten are indifferent
"However, the best way to deal with others is to sit quietly and think about your own mistakes, and don't talk about others' faults in small talk. You must learn and understand it."
"Yes, Master." Mu Chenxue and Zhu Xingxiu said respectfully.
"Disciple, I must obey my master's teachings."
"Shen Tuxuan sincerely abides by the bishop's teachings."
Hearing this, Ling Tian had a faint feeling in his heart: This Shen Tuxuan seemed to be more and more similar to Qiu Zhenghe.
"Okay! Next, report your situation to the teacher."
Ling Tian let Zhu Xingxiu speak first.
After all, he and Qiu Zhenghe were engaged in recruiting talents. This is related to the future of Xuanming Sect.
Of course, the reason why Ling Tian chose this time to recruit talents with great fanfare, recruit talents, and even support sects and develop alliances was all part of the plan.
This is like creating public opinion and requires building momentum. The greater the potential, the better the effect.
Let your opponents understand that today's Xuanming Sect is still something you can't mess with.
Moreover, Ling Tian can also complete the two tasks of reviving the Xuanming Sect's former glory and recruiting talents.
He could even show his strength in front of these disciples again, apart from his outstanding cultivation. It can have the effect of shocking and gathering people's hearts.
Therefore, Ling Tian had thought carefully about this seemingly ordinary move.
"Master, disciple and seventh senior brother have spread the news that Xuanming Sect is recruiting talents and recruiting talents."
"And in order to have a faster and greater effect. In addition to spreading within Anseong Prefecture, we also have people take our news to other states, cities, and counties to spread."
Speaking of this, Qiu Zhenghe immediately came forward.
"That's right. In order to make this matter more convincing, the eighth junior brother also spread the news that the junior sister Jingyue Sect has surrendered to our Xuanming Sect."
"And he also made some articles about the massacre of Jingyue Sect in Qingyan Mountain Yuanyang Palace. Even the fact that Shen Tuxuan stayed in our Xuanming Sect and was highly regarded has also been spread."
"Although I didn't ask for Master's consent or Shen Tuxuan's opinion, this is also to prove that our Xuanming Sect is sincerely recruiting talents and supporting the sect's true attitude."
Hearing this, Ling Tian nodded.
Although he was quite satisfied in his heart, his face turned as cold as a knife.
It made other people's hearts tremble.
He knew that Zhu Xingxiu could read his thoughts. Otherwise, he would not have made a fuss about the massacre of Jingyue Gate at Yuanyang Palace in Qingyan Mountain.
But the fact that Shen Tuxuan stayed in the Xuanming Sect was also spread, which made Ling Tian not like it.
After all, he still wanted to use Shen Tuxuan to make a secret move. But not anymore.
At this moment, after listening to Qiu Zhenghe's words, Shen Tuxuan's face turned livid.
Although he had promised to stay under the Xuanming Sect, he also said that he would serve to the death.
But if it spreads out like this, wouldn't he become a laughing stock in the world's famous righteous families
And the most important thing is that his current state of mind has not completely changed.
"Kneel down!"
Suddenly, Ling Tian slapped his palm hard on the stone chair and shouted loudly.
The four people present immediately knelt on the ground.
Their faces were horrified, but they didn't know what was happening.
Especially Qiu Zhenghe and Shen Tuxuan, their bodies were already trembling at this moment.
"Who asked you to spread the news that Shen Tuxuan had surrendered to the Xuanming Sect?" Ling Tian scolded angrily.
"Did you know at that time that Shen Tuxuan had not surrendered to our Xuanming Sect? Do you know how much trouble and influence it caused to Shen Tuxuan by your way of killing first and then reporting later?"
"What if he wants to go back to Yuanyang Palace in Qingyan Mountain? What if he wants to leave this troubled world alone and find a remote place to spend the rest of his life in peace?"
"By acting like this, you are simply cutting off people's escape? You should be punished with thunder from the sky."
puff!
Qiu Zhenghe's expression suddenly changed and he was horrified.
Although I have never experienced any thunder, just hearing the word "thunder" tells me that the thief is powerful. So he begged for mercy for a while.
At this moment, Zhu Xingxiu's expression was not much better. Although it is not as powerful as Qiu Zhenghe, it is not light either.
Even Mu Chenxue trembled after hearing this.
When Shen Tuxuan saw this, he was also frightened and uneasy.
At this moment, Ling Tian waved his right hand.
There was a sudden bolt from the blue between heaven and earth.
Crack!
Crack!
Two loud noises that shook the world echoed on the top of Jueqing Mountain.
Qiu Zhenghe screamed like a slaughtered pig.
He actually hugged Zhu Xingxiu's thigh, not caring about any honorable matters at all.
"Lao Ba, save me. I heard that you have withstood the punishment of Master's thunder before. You must save me."
"I'll save you. If you don't want to die, get up quickly, use all your spiritual power to protect your body, and then use your strongest moves to resist the thunder."
"Ah good!"
Qiu Zhenghe quickly got up.
Immediately, he followed Zhu Xingxiu and flew outside the main hall. Then learn from Zhu Xingxiu and get ready.
but…
Damn it, why can't you see Raikage
"Lao Ba, where was the thunder that day? Why can I only hear the sound of thunder but not see the shadow of thunder?" Qiu Zhenghe panicked.
"Don't make any noise, feel it with your heart." Zhu Xingxiu closed his eyes and felt it seriously.
"Oh? Feel it with your heart? Let me try."
When Qiu Zhenghe saw this, he also closed his eyes and felt it with his spiritual consciousness.
But he only knows what it is and doesn’t know why it is so.
In just one second, he was so panicked that he couldn't control himself. Crying, he ran towards Lao Ba.
"Lao Ba, Lao Ba, why can't your mother feel this? Where is it? Can it still be chopped? Lao Ba, please talk to me?"
At this moment, invisible thunder struck down.
There was a loud noise and a huge wave of air.
The phantom sword formation that Zhu Xingxiu had prepared shattered in an instant, and even the body-protecting spiritual power in his body was shattered on the spot.
puff!
Zhu Xingxiu spurted out a mouthful of blood on the spot. Even Qiu Zhenghe beside him was so shaken that he flew out.
At the same time, another invisible thunder struck directly.
"Senior Brother Seven, use your strongest move quickly."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Xingxiu fell to the ground. However, compared to the previous thunder punishment, this time he was only hit until he vomited blood and then passed out.
"Ah? My dear mother, is this thunder so cruel?"
Qiu Zhenghe cried when he saw Zhu Xingxiu being beaten to death.
I cried because I was afraid that I would be killed.
Boom!
Qiu Zhenghe was always half a beat too slow. Before he could use his strongest move, he was struck by invisible thunder and fell to the ground on the spot.
puff!
A mouthful of blood spurted out.
Electric currents spread all over the body, making a sizzling sound. Qiu Zhenghe fell to the ground, his eyes turned white, he vomited blood, and his whole body was twitching.
It all happened so fast and suddenly. As a result, Shen Tuxuan didn't react at all and his face was pale.
It was as if he was the one struck by these two thunderbolts, not Zhu Xingxiu and Qiu Zhenghe.
Now looking at Zhu Xingxiu and Qiu Zhenghe, they were struck down by thunder. His eyes rolled back and his whole body twitched miserably.
Shen Tuxuan was so frightened that he was trembling all over and breaking out in cold sweat. His face was as white as a dead person.
"Ding! Successfully punished the betrayer Zhu Xingxiu and obtained 200 exchange points."
"Ding! Successfully punished the traitor Qiu Zhenghe and obtained 200 exchange points."
"Reminder: There is only one punishment left today. Do you want to continue using it? It is recommended that the host increases the power of punishment and strikes Qiu Zhenghe again!"
Ling Tian ignored the system's reminder and looked at Shen Tuxuan with a calm expression, as if what just happened had not happened.
"Shen Tuxuan."
"ah?"
Hearing Ling Tian's voice, Shen Tuxuan's whole body jumped in reflex, and the reaction was extremely huge.
Just like a normal passerby on the street, if he suddenly sees someone screaming and running wildly, he will instinctively follow and run away.
In fact, the same was true for Shen Tuxuan, but when he saw the thunder striking people, he was so frightened that his legs were weak and he had no strength to stand up.
So at this moment he could only stay where he was, otherwise, he would have been so frightened that he would have jumped up.
"What Zhu Xingxiu and Qiu Zhenghe did has really caused you a lot of trouble, so I will punish them severely. Are you satisfied with this punishment?"
Ding!
Shen Tuxuan even wanted to die at this moment.
Ling Tian actually asked him if he was satisfied
Such punishment can no longer be measured by satisfaction or dissatisfaction.
That is simply a warning to everyone that if they do something wrong, they will be severely punished.
Scary!
It’s simply terrifying!
"Shen Tuxuan has no objection." Shen Tuxuan said with fear.
Although Shen Tuxuan originally wanted to say that Ling Tian's punishment was a bit excessive, he said so and had objections to Ling Tian's actions. This is absolutely impossible.
But saying he was satisfied would leave a bad impression on Ling Tian that he didn't care about the friendship between his classmates.
But this was all something he thought of later, so he had to be glad he said that.
The impression has been retained. No, it should be said that his life was saved.
"Okay! Since you have no objections, then report your progress to me."
"Yes, leader."
Shen Tuxuan knelt down and bowed, and quickly started to report.
"Today I went to five towns three hundred miles away and found ten master craftsmen with good skills. They all have a group of apprentices with good skills who have followed them for several years."
"A rough calculation shows that including these ten master craftsmen and their apprentices, a total of 232 people came to repair it."
"The repair will take ten days. The repair materials have been prepared. The first batch will be delivered with the craftsmen tomorrow, and the rest will be delivered on different days."
"The current total cost of labor, materials, etc. is 89,780 copper coins, and there are 10,220 copper coins left. This is the expense account, and this is the list of master craftsmen. These are the remaining copper coins."
Shen Tuxuan took out those things one by one and put them in front of him.
Then he looked at Mu Chenxue awkwardly and whispered.
"Miss Chenxue, please help me pass these things to the leader. Thank you very much."
Mu Chenxue glanced at Shen Tuxuan. This young man who was very conceited before was now so frightened in front of his master.
Compared with his previous self, he is simply far behind.
Mu Chenxue collected the accounts, the list, and the remaining copper coins and sent them to Ling Tian.
Ling Tian took it and looked through it carefully. Then handed it over to Mu Chenxue.
"Very good. Shen Tuxuan, you are very careful and conscientious in your work. I will note your merits and reward them together when the time comes."
"The leader's words are serious. This is what Shen Tuxuan should do."
Shen Tuxuan thought to himself that it would be fine if he didn't punish himself. Why would he dare to think about rewarding according to his merits
"Shen Tuxuan, you have had a hard time today. Go down and rest first. Starting tomorrow, within these ten days, you will be responsible for the repair work alone."
Hearing this, although Shen Tuxuan didn't dare to accept it, he still had to accept it.
Then he struggled to stand up and retreated tremblingly like an old man with weak legs and feet.
"Master, this Shen Tuxuan is not a good person." Mu Chenxue muttered in a low voice.
