The Second Elder was completely stunned. He truly did not know about these things. He originally thought that by calling out his junior brother for confrontation, he could clear everything up and absolve himself of any wrongdoing.
But he never expected his junior brother would say such things.
After hearing Lin Yi's words, he suddenly realized he had fallen into a trap, a massive trap.
Without a doubt, Lin Yi had also been bribed. All this was actually a trap set against him!
After a brief silence, the Second Elder suddenly shouted, "It's all a trap, it's all a trap, it's all lies, it has nothing to do with ! Lin Yi is lying, he was bribed, he made all this up himself, all these people were bribed, it has nothing to do with , I was frad!"
"Even now, you still refuse to admit it!" Sect Leader Ling sighed, "Second Elder, you are at least a distinguished figure. Now that both real evidence and witnesses are present, is it aningful to continue your deceit? As a man of integrity, to do sothing but not to own up to it, isn't it disgraceful?"
"This damn well wasn't done by , why should I admit to it!" The Second Elder started cursing.
"Forget it, don't expect him to admit anything!" Sect Leader Qi walked over and said coldly, "With soone like him, what's there to say, just kill him, and end it once and for all!"
"Sect Leader Qi!" the Second Elder roared, "This matter is your trap, you set up on purpose, and now you want to kill to silence !"
Sect Leader Qi revealed a disdainful smile and ignored him completely.
Sect Leader Ling nodded slowly, "Very well, no more words with him, let's kill him!"
"I'll do it myself!" Sect Leader Qi drew a longsword and walked coldly towards the Second Elder. He had long been displeased with the Second Elder, and now with such an opportunity, he naturally couldn't wait to kill him with his own hands.
The Second Elder's face changed drastically, he was not a match for these people at all!
"What are you going to do!" the Second Elder said urgently, "I am the appointed administrator of the Heavenly Court by the Heavenly Court Master, if you kill , you'll be going against the Heavenly Court, aren't you afraid the Heavenly Court won't let you off?"
"Hmph, you're overestimating yourself!" Sect Leader Qi sneered, "What is your relationship with the Heavenly Court, do you really think we don't know? We're all re dogs of the Heavenly Court, do you think you're much superior to us? You were just the first to ally with the Heavenly Court, we elevated you to this status today, and yet you still want to step on us, on what basis? Using the Heavenly Court against us? Haha, as long as we serve the Heavenly Court earnestly, would the Heavenly Court care about your life or death?"
The Second Elder was speechless, he of course knew the cooperation status between the Four Major Sects and the Heavenly Court. So, in truth, the Heavenly Court would not care about his life or death at all.
Seeing Sect Leader Qi slowly approach him, the Second Elder suddenly shouted, "Kill!"
With that said, the Second Elder turned and fled, not daring to linger even for a mont.
And among the people in the room from the dicine Sect, only a few took action, while the others stood indifferently.
The Second Elder was usually moody, so those beside him were not very loyal. Or perhaps there were a few loyal ones, but in such a situation, knowing that taking action would an death, who would dare act? To have those few take action was already quite good!
But these few were no match for the experts from Tianya Haijiao and Lingxiao Pavilion, and they were quickly subdued.
As for the Second Elder, he had not gotten far before Sect Leader Qi rushed directly in front of him. He didn't even have ti to dodge, being slashed by sect leader Qi's sword.
The Second Elder hastily raised his hand to block, but his action was too rushed, with insufficient power, and he was directly struck on the shoulder with a sword, causing him to scream in pain.
Turning to flee again, but no matter how he ran, he couldn't escape Sect Leader Qi. Sect Leader Qi was much faster than him, plus Sect Leader Ling and others were also watching him closely from the side, he really couldn't escape!
"Second Elder, stop your futile struggle, it's aningless!" Sect Leader Qi sneered, "At this point, do you really think you can escape? Stand still obediently, and I can give you a quick end. Otherwise, dying slowly and painfully, isn't that more suffering?"
The Second Elder bit his teeth, refusing to speak, his heart filled with shock and anger, nearly in despair. At this point, there was no hope of escaping.
Just then, a mass of black mist suddenly appeared behind the Second Elder. Then, a black vortex began to slowly form.
Sect Leader Ling's eyes flashed with sharpness, angrily shouting, "Gate of Life!"
The Second Elder was first stunned, then overjoyed. Without waiting for the vortex to form completely, he directly rushed into the vortex.
Sect Leader Qi quickly pursued, but ultimately was a step too late, watching helplessly as the Second Elder disappeared into the vortex. He originally wanted to follow in and kill the Second Elder, but ultimately dared not do so.
Because he didn't know who created this Gate of Life to rescue the Second Elder, and he didn't know where the Second Elder would be transported. If he followed in, and there was a group of people waiting on the other side, wouldn't he be throwing his life away?
So, in the end, they could only watch the Gate of Life disappear right before their eyes, and everyone present fell into a deathly silence.
After a long ti, Sect Leader Ling straightened himself, looked around at the people from the dicine Sect, and said in a low voice, "The Second Elder of the dicine Sect is sinister, despicable, and disobeyed the orders of the Heavenly Court, causing significant losses to the Four Major Sects. By order of the Heavenly Court, we were sent to capture him. But not only did he not cooperate, but he also resisted orders, blatantly defying the Heavenly Court. Lingxiao Pavilion and Tianya Haijiao will fully pursue this individual. As for those in the dicine Sect, if you are willing to obey the orders of the Heavenly Court, then you are people of the Heavenly Court and will continue to work for it in the future. But if you're unwilling to follow the orders, then you are remnants of the Second Elder and will be killed without rcy!"
The people of the dicine Sect exchanged looks. They were not fools and naturally understood the implication in Sect Leader Ling's words.
The previous accusations against the Second Elder were essentially useless and just so random excuses. The real key lies in his later words, which are straightforward: those who subdue prosper, those who resist perish!
At this point, with Sect Leader Qi having already taken action against the Second Elder, these people dared not intervene, so would they care about sothing like loyalty? After Sect Leader Ling's words fell, everyone quickly spoke up, expressing their willingness to continue serving the Heavenly Court. Of course, in essence, they would be serving these two Major Sects!
Sect Leader Ling was quite satisfied, nodding slowly, "Very well, your choices are wise; continuing to serve the Heavenly Court, your future achievents will be limitless!"
