Quan Jue’s gaze was so cold that it could freeze these people. He was so angry that he ended up smiling. “All of you will be punished according to the sect rules.”
The Xuan Sect had existed for hundreds of years and the rules had always been strict. This time, Teng Ying and the rest had mitted such a huge mistake. Even if they didn’t lose their lives, they would have to pay a huge penalty!
Chi Jiao didn’t like to see Quan Jue angry. She tugged at him gently with her soft hand. “Alright, they didn’t do it on purpose. Why are you so angry? Just a small punishment will do.”
Everyone knew how cunning She Qi was. These people were not as strong as him, so it was already a good thing that there were no casualties.
Quan Jue’s stern expression was immediately replaced by gentleness. “Jiaojiao, you’ve misunderstood me. It’s not that I want to punish them, but the Xuan Sect has rules. They are willing to accept the punishment so that they can remember their lesson.”
!!
Teng Ying couldn’t believe that Quan Jue had such a gentle side!
Was this their boss who always treated them so harshly? Boohoo, he was a pletely different person!
However, Boss’s words were too ridiculous.
What did he mean by willing to be punished? They were not masochists!
“Brother Quan, stop bullying them. They already learned from their mistake,” Chi Jiao advised.
Quan Jue’s smile did not diminish as he said indifferently, “Alright, since you’ve pleaded for them, of course, I have to listen to you. How about this? You guys let She Qi escape this time because you’re not strong enough. If you guys undergo my special training, then you don’t need to be punished.”
The eyes of Teng Ying and the others nearly popped out.
Without hesitation, they shouted in unison, “Boss, we did something wrong, so we should be punished! We’re willing to be punished!”
“Yes, undergoing punishment will make us happy. Boss, please fulfill our wish!”
“Boss, please punish me!” Teng Ying requested anxiously.
Chi Jiao looked at them in disbelief. “Are you guys alright?”
This was the first time she had seen someone so eager to be punished.
Teng Ying and the rest forced a smile, not daring to tell her the truth.
To them, being punished was just getting beaten up or suffering a little. But undergoing their boss’ special training would be a fate worse than death. They didn’t want to die!
“Jiaojiao, see, I was right. Alright, go and receive your punishment.” Quan Jue at them and then brought Chi Jiao to examine Xia Luoqiao’s corpse.
Di Ziyan and the rest also lowered their heads guiltily upon seeing her. “Boss, I’m sorry.”
“She Qi is cunning. I already guessed that we wouldn’t be able to trap him forever. It’s good that you didn’t suffer any casualties.” Chi Jiao didn’t want to be too harsh. “Let me see Xia Luoqiao’s corpse.”
“Yes.” Di Ziyan lifted the white cloth on Xia Luoqiao’s corpse, revealing her old and terrifying face.
Xia Luoqiao had died with deep grievances. She fell from a high altitude, and most of the bones in her body were shattered. She was covered in blood, and half of her face was a bloody mess. However, her eyes were wide open, filled with indignance and hatred.
“This is Xia Luoqiao? Why is she so old?” If not for the fact that Xia Luoqiao was still wearing her usual pink dress, Chi Jiao would never believe that this old woman was the vain Xia Luoqiao.
Quan Jue examined the corpse before explaining to her, “There’s a curse mark on Xia Luoqiao’s body.”
