Chapter 126 Going to the Batu Caves for Reflection
Ji Tianxing had a premonition that something was wrong when he saw Lu Mingyang appearing with the black-robed deacon.
He immediately understood that all this was Ji Ling's conspiracy!
Both he and Ji Ke were deceived by Ji Ling, and Jian Yu and Lu Mingyang were both Ji Ling's accomplices!
At this time, the black-robed deacon walked into the field and shouted angrily with a gloomy face: "Stop!"
"The Discipline Deacon is here, so don't be so arrogant!"
If the Discipline Deacon had arrived a moment later, Ji Tianxing would have definitely killed Ji Ling.
However, now that the Discipline Deacon has arrived, he has no chance to take action and can only stop with unwillingness.
Ji Ling secretly sneered in her heart, but on the surface she pretended to be dying and reported to the Discipline Deacon: "Deacon, you came just in time!"
"This bastard Ji Tianxing actually wants to kill me and silence me! Mr. Deacon, you must make the decision for me!"
The Discipline Deacon looked at Ji Ling and asked in a deep voice: "What is going on? Why are you here and why are you fighting?"
Before Ji Tianxing could open his mouth to explain, Ji Ling said first, "Master Deacon, this is what happened!"
"Ji Tianxing and I are both from Qingyun Kingdom, and we have had grudges in the world. After entering the sect, we both entered Fengyun Academy. He has always wanted to seek revenge from me, but he has no chance."
"It just so happens that I have a niece named Ji Ke who is practicing in Bailu Yuan. Ji Tianxing tricked her into coming here and used her as a blackmail to force me to submit!"
"After I learned the news, I took Senior Brother Jian Yu and came to rescue Ji Ke. Unexpectedly...Ji Tianxing, a vicious bastard, actually injured Ji Ke and pushed her off the cliff!"
"After the incident is exposed, he will kill people to silence me and Jian Yu too! Fortunately, Mr. Deacon, you came in time, otherwise we would have died!"
Ji Tianxing was immediately furious, with murderous intent bursting out of his body, and his eyes were fixed on Ji Ling.
"Ji Ling! You are a despicable person, a beast worse than a pig or a dog!"
"It was obviously a plan to trick me and Ji Ke into coming here. It was you who pushed Ji Ke off the cliff with your own hands. You actually slandered me and dared to slander me!"
"How can there be such a vicious and shameless bastard like you in this world?"
Ji Ling defended with a sneer on her face: "Ji Tianxing, you are so ridiculous!"
"Ji Ke is my biological niece. I have always loved her very much. How could I push her off the cliff?"
"Even if you want to make excuses and slander me, please use your brain!"
When the Discipline Deacon heard Ji Ling's words, he immediately frowned and looked at Ji Tianxing with gloomy eyes.
Just at this time, Jian Yu also climbed out of the woods.
Covered in blood and dirt, he looked as miserable as Ji Ling.
When he saw the Discipline Deacon, he felt as if he had seen a savior. He quickly endured his injuries and saluted: "Disciple Jian Yu, I have met the deacon!"
"I can testify for Ji Ling! After Ji Ling received the news, he invited me to come to Jade Sword Peak to save his niece."
"Unfortunately, when we arrived, we happened to see Ji Tianxing pushing Ji Ke off the cliff! We were so angry that we wanted to capture Ji Tianxing and hand him over to the sect for punishment."
"I didn't expect that Ji Tianxing was so powerful that he would kill both of us to silence us and cover up the evidence of his crime!"
"Master Deacon, you saw it with your own eyes when you came just now. Everything the disciple said is true!"
At this time, Lu Mingyang also quickly echoed: "Master Deacon, I can also testify for Ji Ling that Ji Tianxing has a personal grudge against him and has always wanted to find an opportunity to retaliate against him!"
"Moreover, the day after Ji Tianxing entered Fengyun Court, he stole the spiritual fruit from the elixir garden and was punished by Deacon Han of Fengyun Court."
"A despicable and insidious villain like Ji Tianxing is simply a disgrace to our sect! Now that he has committed such a heinous crime, I ask the deacon to give him a severe punishment!"
Ji Ling, Jian Yu and Lu Mingyang colluded with each other and insisted that Ji Tianxing killed Ji Ke and wanted to silence him.
Ji Tianxing was so angry that he almost wanted to run away, but he could not defend himself.
He has no evidence and no one to testify for him, so of course the disciplinary deacons will not believe him.
After a while, the Discipline Deacon inquired about the situation and ordered in a deep voice: "Ji Tianxing, Ji Ling and Jian Yu, this matter is very bad, I will definitely investigate it!"
"Until the investigation is clear, the three of you must return to the Discipline Hall with me to wait for the punishment!"
"In addition, I will immediately send an order to send people to search for Ji Ke under the cliff..."
Afterwards, the Discipline Deacon led everyone away from Jade Sword Peak and returned to the Discipline Hall at the top of Qingtian Peak.
Ji Tianxing, Ji Ling and Jian Yu were detained in three quiet rooms in the Discipline Hall, waiting for the investigation and judgment of the Discipline Hall.
Not only that, the Discipline Hall also sent people to search for Ji Ke's whereabouts under the Jade Sword Peak.
…
Half a day passed quickly.
In Quiet Room No. 3 of the Discipline Hall, Ji Tianxing was sitting in the corner, expressionlessly looking up at the small window on the wall.
This quiet room is only three meters in diameter, and there is nothing in it, not even a chair.
The floor and walls are made of dark brown boulders, and there are iron windows the size of a human head on the walls.
Through the iron window, only a palm-sized patch of sky could be seen outside.
Night had fallen by now, and the sky outside the window was dark.
Ji Tianxing sat in the cold corner all afternoon, his mood changing from anger and irritability to indifference and helplessness.
Even though he knew the truth of the matter, he told the Discipline Deacon again and again.
But the Qingtian Sect has strict rules, and it is impossible for the Discipline Deacon to believe his words.
Until the matter is investigated clearly, all he can do is stay in the quiet room and wait for the judgment of the Discipline Hall.
He had long made up his mind that after this matter was over, he would find an opportunity to kill Ji Ling and take revenge!
What he was most worried about at the moment was Ji Ke, but he couldn't do anything but silently pray for Ji Ke.
"Keke, don't let anything happen to you, don't die!"
"I will definitely Zhaoxue for you and kill Ji Ling to avenge you! I swear!"
There was deathly silence in the quiet room, and time seemed to pass extremely slowly.
I don’t know how long it took, but someone opened the iron door of the quiet room.
A black-robed deacon walked into the secret room, looked at Ji Tianxing with an indifferent expression, and said in a deep voice: "Ji Tianxing, come out!"
Ji Tianxing stood up immediately and asked anxiously: "Master Deacon, have you found Ji Ke? How is she?"
The black-robed deacon glanced at him and said in a cold tone: "Ji Ke is not dead, but he is dying and unconscious."
Ji Tianxing finally breathed a sigh of relief and murmured silently: "It's good that I'm not dead! I knew that Keke was lucky and would not die like this!"
"Follow me!" the black-robed deacon ordered in a deep voice.
"Where to go?" Ji Tianxing asked subconsciously: "Has the Discipline Hall investigated clearly and wants to let me out?"
The black-robed deacon looked at him expressionlessly and said in a deep voice: "The matter has not been fully investigated yet, but it is basically certain that it was you who murdered the brothers and sisters of the same sect!"
"However, we have to wait until Ji Ke wakes up before we can make a final conclusion on this matter."
"Before Ji Ke wakes up, the Discipline Hall decided to imprison you in the Batu Cave in the back mountain. You should reflect on it!"
"What? This is impossible!" Ji Tianxing immediately said anxiously: "It was obviously Ji Ling who planned to kill Ji Ke and me. Ji Ke and I are good friends, how could he harm her!"
"Stop talking nonsense!" the black-robed deacon shouted coldly with a majestic voice: "You have no evidence to prove your innocence, so you must comply with the investigation results of the Discipline Hall!"
