The first thousand six hundred and ninety-eight chapters
"It's late at night, why are you here?"
The four elders looked at Liu Rushi below with expressionless faces and said lightly.
"Reporting to the four elders, this person's name is Liu Rushi, and he is a registered disciple of my Changsheng Heavenly Palace. This person actually went to the disciple's house alone with the intention of assassinating me! Please make the decision for me..." Xue Xiang stood up, filled with grief and anger.
said.
While he was speaking, blood was still lying on his chest, and he was pressing his chest with a look of pain on his face.
"Oh? Is this happening?" The four elders also looked surprised.
The nature of the vendettas between disciples is different.
If the situation is not handled well and the elder is alerted, no one will be able to bear it.
Xue Xiang told what happened.
When everyone heard this, they were filled with indignation and gnashed their teeth.
The faces of the four elders were also extremely ugly.
"So, this Liu Rushi deliberately wants to kill you in order to cancel tomorrow's life-and-death medical battle?" the Fourth Chief said coldly.
"Yes, sir, she has admitted this herself." Xue Xiang said.
"I don't!"
Liu Rushi finally raised her head and shouted loudly.
"presumptuous!"
"Do you have a role to speak here?"
"Shut up!"
The disciples yelled and cursed one after another, and some even spat at Liu Rushi.
Liu Rushi endured the humiliation, but still insisted: "This matter has nothing to do with Lin Yang. It is the grudge between me, Xue Xiang, and Li Tao. They humiliated me on the ladder of immortality! I just want revenge!"
Liu Rushi didn't want to implicate Lin Yang. If this matter had anything to do with Lin Yang, she was worried that the people in Changsheng Palace would give up on treating him.
"So, you admit that you really want to kill Xue Xiang?" the four elders asked coldly.
"yes...."
Liu Rushi hesitated and said hoarsely.
"That's good!"
The four elders nodded and said expressionlessly: "Since you have admitted it, there is nothing to investigate in this matter. Come here!"
"exist!"
All thirty-six executioners stood up.
"According to the palace rules, anyone who deliberately murders a fellow disciple should be executed immediately! Commander Ma will behead this person on the execution palace!"
"As you command!"
The crowd shouted.
Immediately, two people came over, dragged Liu Rushi to the middle of the execution palace, and forced her to kneel down.
Liu Rushi did not resist, her eyes were lifeless, her face was ashen as she knelt down, and she allowed these people to manipulate her.
She closed her eyes, blood was still flowing from the corners of her mouth, her hair was wet with blood, and she was like an empty shell, waiting for death to come.
"Liu Rushi, do you have anything else to say?" the four statues asked calmly.
"I just want to say that this matter has nothing to do with Lin Yang and is all based on my wishful thinking." Liu Rushi said hoarsely.
"I will interrogate Lin Yang again on this matter. As for you, since you have pleaded guilty, you must be punished! Do you have any opinions?"
"No..."
"good!"
The four elders threw a piece of sword order on the table and shouted: "Execution! Behead!"
"cut!"
One of the executioners pulled out the sharp blade from his waist and was about to slash Liu Rushi's neck.
But at this moment, urgent shouts resounded: "Stop it all!!"
The people in the palace couldn't help but tremble, and all turned their attention towards the source of the sound.
Then I saw an old woman with white hair walking into the palace.
"Grandma Wen?"
Many people exclaimed.
"Um?"
The four elders were also quite surprised and frowned: "Grandma Wen, why are you here? Aren't you guarding the ladder of immortality at the foot of the mountain?"
"I came here to say a few words for this girl." Granny Wen walked in with a stooped body.
"Oh?" The four elders were a little surprised.
Xue Xiang and others looked unnatural.
They could see that Granny Wen seemed to like Liu Rushi very much.
"Grandma Wen, this girl has already confessed her crime. It's useless to say anything. Since I am sitting in the Tianxing Palace, I must act in accordance with the rules of the palace. The laws cannot be abolished!" The four elders said solemnly.
"Four elders, the laws cannot be abolished, but you can't blame good people." Granny Wen said hurriedly.
"Wrong blame on a good person? Granny Wen, what do you mean?"
"She wants to kill me, how can she be a good person?"
Xue Xiang couldn't help but jumped out and shouted.
"Of course she is a good person! Xue Xiang, do you really think I can't see what happened on the ladder of immortality? What's the matter with the injury on her forehead?" Granny Wen asked coldly.
"This..." Xue Xiang's face turned green and he didn't know how to answer.
"Although the old woman is old, she is not stupid! It was obviously you who made things difficult for this girl in the first place, and she took revenge because she was so angry! Fourth Elder, I think this matter is just an ordinary conflict between disciples.
It's not that serious! So I ask the four elders to take the punishment lightly." Granny Wen bowed slightly and said seriously.
The four elders moved their brows and fell into silence.
If ordinary people spoke, the four elders would definitely not listen.
But Granny Wen does have some weight in the Palace of Eternal Life, and she should be given some face.
What's more, although blood dripped from Xue Xiang's chest, it was actually just a flesh wound, not serious at all, and everything was just one-sided words from Xue Xiang and others. Liu Rushi had given up the argument, so convicting him like this was actually a bit hasty.
The four elders were thinking deeply, trying to find a reasonable way to deal with this matter.
However, at this moment, a voice with a slight smile came in.
"Four elders, the prisoner has confessed his crime, and everyone has seen it with their own eyes. There is irrefutable evidence! Why are you so hesitant just based on a few unfounded words from Granny Wen? This woman! She should be killed immediately to set the record straight!!"
Everyone was startled.
But a handsome man in long white clothes walked in and saluted the four elders with a smile.
"Brother!" Xue Xiang was overjoyed when he saw the person coming.
Granny Wen was stunned for a moment, her face looking unnatural.
