"That's what you said!" Jin Lie's face became even more gloomy. He turned around suddenly, looked at Meng Zirou coldly with his brown triangular eyes, and shouted to the guards behind him: "These two people are making a big fuss in the execution ground and kidnapping criminals."
, you will be punished for injuring an elder, take it down for me! If you dare to resist, you will be killed without mercy!"
He knew very well in his heart that he was definitely no match for Meng Zirou. He had heard about the power of magic fire for a long time. Just now, just a small ball of flames directly broke his spell. It was obvious that Meng Zirou was by no means an ordinary person. Moreover, Yaizhen could be defeated with one move.
After hurting Yun Zhongzi, his strength must not be underestimated. And his unintentional words just now clearly stated that he did not want to get involved in this matter. If he really takes action rashly now, I am afraid he will not get any advantage. Instead of doing this,
It would be better to sacrifice a few of his minions. As long as Meng Zirou and the others go on a killing spree and arouse public outrage, then if he takes action "righteously", Wu Xin and the others will not be able to just sit back and watch.
"Yes!" The guards responded in unison, immediately surrounding Meng Zirou and Yaizhan, and the situation suddenly became tense.
Meng Zirou glanced at the guards around him indifferently. She had already guessed Jin Lie's thoughts and said contemptuously: "As the third elder of the Pingle Kingdom, you actually pushed your subordinates to die while you pretended to be a good person on the side."
, it’s really despicable to the extreme!”
Jin Lie didn't speak, just smiled lightly and quietly, waiting for both parties to take action.
Unexpectedly, Zhui Ri, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke: "Everyone, stop it! Don't cause unnecessary killings for me!" His rich voice was hoarse due to the smoke from the fireworks, which made people feel very uncomfortable and distressed.
. He was obviously very grateful to Meng Zirou for coming to the rescue, and his address became extremely cordial: "Sister Zirou, I appreciate your kindness! But this matter is really my fault, and I killed you for no reason.
Three lives should be given to them, and you should stop interfering! ------"
"No!" Meng Zirou waved his hand domineeringly to stop Zhui Ri from continuing: "Since I'm here today, I must take you away. Whoever dares to stop him will be wiped out in ashes." After saying that, purple flames surrounded him.
Its slender body jumped up happily, burning more and more, and gradually transformed into a giant purple python, surrounding itself, Yaizhen, and Zhui Ri, and kept circling, roasting everyone who came close to them.
The guards looked at this horrific scene in panic and subconsciously stepped back. No one dared to step forward. Yaizhen took the opportunity to loosen the rope around Zhui Ri and rescued him.
Jin Lie became angry, and struck down a retreating guard with a palm from the air. He angrily shouted: "Anyone who dares to retreat is just like this person!" The guards looked at each other, retreating now would be death, and there might be a chance to fight forward.
Vigorously, he simply gritted his teeth and gathered around again.
Looking at the soldiers approaching the fire snake, Meng Zirou ran out of ideas for a moment. She didn't want to hurt these innocent people, and she also knew very well that if the three of them tried to escape once they were outraged by the public, they would probably be in trouble.
While he was hesitating, a white figure appeared out of thin air and shouted: "Stop!" It suddenly landed in front of Jin Lie. There was a peaceful smile on his old face, and his eyes that had already seen through the world were staring at him.
Everything was done without being angry. The slightly thin body stood there quietly, but it exuded invisible pressure, causing everyone to subconsciously stop their movements, look at him respectfully, and then knelt down.
, kowtowed devoutly: "Welcome to the Great Elder!"
Jin Lie looked at the old man with white hair and beard in front of him in shock. His lips moved a few times and he subconsciously murmured: "Great Elder!" After a while, he suddenly realized what he was doing and quickly knelt down on the ground, preemptively reporting: "The Demon Realm."
The purple-eyed girl broke into the barrier without authorization, disturbed the execution ground, kidnapped the prisoners, and injured Yun Zhongzi. I hope the elder will take action to prevent it from causing greater trouble!"
"You fart!" Yaizhen was furious and was about to take action impulsively, but was stopped by Meng Zirou. Although she only met the Great Elder once in secret, that only long conversation made her have a deep love for this wise old man.
She had unparalleled conviction and admiration. She absolutely believed that Xuanmu would appear at this critical moment, and he must have already understood everything and come to deliver justice.
Sure enough, Xuanmu waved his hand, signaling everyone to get up, and then walked slowly towards Zhui Ri, looking at the charred and torn clothes on the strong body and the wounds that were constantly bleeding pus and blood, his thin face was filled with understanding and admiration. His right hand
He slowly lifted it up, and soft golden light continuously covered the wound. After a moment, the skin returned to smooth skin. Even the clothes returned to their original state.
Zhui Ri looked at all this in surprise. After a long while, he knelt down on the ground gratefully and said shamefully: "Zhui Ri is ashamed. I failed to complete everyone's entrustment and should be punished. How dare you bother the Great Elder to heal my wounds in person now?"
Xuanmu stretched out his hand to help him up, patted his strong shoulder, and smiled knowingly: "You are dedicated to the Pingle Kingdom, and you are not afraid of hardships and dangers, searching for medicine thousands of miles away. Although you have made irreversible mistakes, you have also cultivated a villain.
There is a treacherous plot. There is a reason for everything, so don’t blame yourself. After a short rest, you can set off with Meng Yatou and the others to find medicine for the people!"
"Yes!" Zhui Ri was so excited that he didn't know what to do, so he had to bow and clasp his fists, and kept saying yes. The elders of the Wuxin group let out a long sigh of relief, and all of them smiled and were overjoyed. Meng Zirou also looked at each other with a stern look.
, knowing that the work is done, the journey all the way was finally not in vain.
However, Jin Lie and others were extremely angry. They were about to finish the job when Cheng Yaojin suddenly appeared in the middle of the battle, catching them off guard. They could only watch Zhui Ri being rescued and were helpless.
Jin Lie was silent for a while, and glanced at Wentian without trace. The latter immediately understood the idea, took a step forward, and knelt on the ground: "Great Elder, Elder Zhui Ri cannot be let go. In this case, where is the majesty of Pingle Kingdom's criminal law?
, others will say that we practice favoritism and allow elders to break the law!"
"Then tell me, what kind of law did Zhui Ri commit?" Looking coldly at Wentian who was kneeling on the ground, Xuanmu asked majestically. Without waiting for him to react, he continued: "If it's for the sake of
If you make a mistake in saving someone, you will be burned. So who will dare to go out to look for medicine next time? If you have to let your brothers' blood stain the execution ground, this is the majesty of our Pingle Kingdom's criminal law. If you don't let Zhui Sun meritorious deeds, go and look for medicine.
Medicine, are you going to go?" An invisible pressure made Wentian feel frightened, and a series of questions left him speechless, and he did not dare to open his mouth again.
Jin Lie raised an objection unceremoniously: "But, Great Elder, who can guarantee that he will not abscond in fear of crime and never come back? As an elder in charge of criminal law, I have to think carefully about some issues and return them.
I hope the Great Elder will understand."
"Then how about I be a guarantee?" Xuanmu waved his long sleeves and promised Tianming like an oath: "If Zhui Ri never comes back, I am willing to give up my position as the Great Elder and quit the Pingle Kingdom forever!"
"Brother, don't!" Wu Xin and others were shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him. The surrounding residents also talked a lot, dissatisfied with the aggressiveness of Jin Lie and others.
Jin Lie got what he wanted, and was secretly happy in his heart, but on the surface he tried to dissuade him by pretending to be difficult: "Why should the Great Elder do this? Isn't this making things difficult for me?"
——"Do you have any objections?"
——"Then I have to be a villain first and then a gentleman. During this period, the Great Elder please live in the Holy Realm and do not go out or enter the Void Realm to practice at will. When Zhui Ri comes back with Pure Water, the Great Elder
